[Q] mms issue. People can't receive my pics

I am running the infused 1.5.3 rom and go sms. When I try to send a picture to my friend who has the exact phone I do and also my wife who has the iphone 4. They are both receiving this message
"Your phone is not compatible with this message type or size. Portions of this message will not be displayed."
Yet pics I send to my friend who has verizon go just fine. Is there some setting I'm missing? Thanks in advance.

Have you tried sending the message through the stock messaging app?

My friend with his infuse can send me pics and I can get pics from my wifes iphone 4 when she sends them as well but they can't get mine.

does your phone ask you if you would like to resize them when you try and send...if so are you selecting yes
are there any other changes that you have made like:
freezing thesms/mms app
using a different sms app
etc etc
and then the same goes for their end...
have they made any changes, do they receive pics from others and only not yours

I am using go sms and I've tried stock sms. I haven't froze any sms apps. It doesn't ask me to resize, just the usual compressing or resizing message it normally gives without prompting for a user response. My friends infuse is stock and not rooted and my wifes iphone 4 is jailbroken but nothing has changed anytime recently with it. The apps I have frozen is just media hub. Yes they can receive pics from others and send them as well.
Edit: I have media hub, maps, and news & weather frozen.
Actually it just reads "converting to multimedia message" no prompt for anything. Very frustrating as to why mainly verizon people are getting my pics and not others. Thats how it seems anyway.
As far as trying to send pics that I actually took with my phone then forget about it. Longest I've had it sit is about 15 minutes before I get pissed and just delete the send. Those stay stuck on "sending" and never go anywhere.

Anyone have any ideas? Maybe I'm missing some kind of setting after flashing infused

I use handcent...in the settings there is an option of "max mms message size limit"
I believe you want that to be 2mb...anything over that will not send to some phones.
that has been the only instance where some people did not receive my msgs.
Have you tried on wifi and network? I have not noticed the issue on att, but on sprint you could not send or receive mms while on wifi
those are the only things I can think of

I do currently have it set to 4g 5M for the photo size. I could give that a shot. Still odd that it would not send to my friends infuse I have tried wifi and att network and home I have the 3g microcell which is NOT worth the $200. I'm kinda pissed I bought it.
If you want full bars yet calls cut in and out and you want to resend each text about 4 times cause they will instantly fail (happens no where but when I'm connected to microcell) then pick one up lol
But yea the mms issue happens elsewhere as well.

I kept the size the same for now but unchecked preserve image size and now it seems the pics send. Yesterday it would be stuck on sending. I can only test with people at work. The ones with issues are asleep right now. Hopefully that or the 2m image size fixes the issue

It kicks but in my area...eh ...different modems work better in different areas...

Thank a bunch! Will test for a day or so! As of 4 hours agho, wifi is great, gps is very accurate and fast to lock.

Testing for 2 days now and only issues I see is slightly more battery drain than KK1 and stability. Incredibly fast.

Anyone know what's causing the 160+ word text message fail issue on these newer modems? The last time a 160+ word text sent for me was on UCKI3, which I am currently on.

I send 160+ texts to my wife all the time (we text a lot, lol) and have never had a problem. She's on ATT also but the MMS app has no idea what provider the recipient is using before it sends. I assume it's failing when trying to send and not at some other point (like mms deliver confirmation or something).

Well the weird thing is that it's happened with every new modem and I've tried to send a bunch of 160+ texts. I'll send them to myself as well for confirmation and try don't send. And I text my girlfriend a lot as well, and she's on ATT. I just can't figure this out to save my life, lol.

+1 ... I have had the exact same problem. 160+ character fails to send on any new modem. Last modem that let me was UCKI3, which I got decent speeds with and was pretty stable.
This KK2 is a little faster, the wifi may be just a little more stable... but I miss being able to send long texts
I might make the switch back to KI3 just for the long text message capability...

I've also had issues with every new modem when it comes to the 160+ characters with texting. I'm currently on UCKJ1, its the latest one without the issue and I get great speeds on it. But I always check when a new one comes out and its always there!

Were they long texts? When using the KJ6 modem I've found (And heard of) many people complaining longer texts and picture messages would not send. Try using another modem like KI3 and see if its fixed.

I'm currently having the same issue since I upgraded to the official os. I thought maybe I did something wrong by flashing Dr honks kj1 kernel over this ROM. I even called t-mobile and the rep I spoke with was pretty condescending, but I was at work at the time and didn't wanna get irate before a meeting. If there's more people with this issue, hopefully they'll call so it can be addressed.

Try flashing another modem like my post above ;P

all kj6 and 2.3.6 roms have this problem if its even a problem that is.There is max of 160 or 180 chars you can send. When the numbers start to pop up like 5/1 while typing a long text it will almost always fail. If your typing up a long essay to your friend send it through email other wise sms is for only short messages. sms(short message server). I believe its the Tmobile network that limits this per message and theres ane asy work around of either flashing a different modem or typing short messages below 6 lines.

160 for SMS, and some cdma networks can not send / receive anything over that. You can split some messages in some SMS programs like gosms.
Switching to the ki3 moden has stopped my can't send message, however the other person still received the message even though it said the message failed to send.

I've never had this as an issue until just recentlyand it's not isolated to more than 160, even 2liners fail. CDMA limits your message to 160 chars but GSM network have never to my knowledge set a char cap on sms unless if its been recent.

Thanks for the responses. Glad i'm not the only one. It seems to happen regardless of text length, and had definitely only started since upgrading.
In regard to flashing a different modem, will that have a detrimental effect on wifi?

No, the files that improved the wifi are in the system folder, I separated them and posted a thread in the dev section on how to use those files on any room... Yes you can now have improved wifi on any GB ROM the modem.bin file, from what I've seen only delegates mobile radio

Is anyone else having a problem sending mms since using the ICS leak? If so, is there a fix for it? Thanks

Actually , ive had issues sending & receiving since Skyrocketeer ((2.3.6)
I flashed the leaked ICS and it was the 1st thing i tested and was able to send .
Tonight , i am unable to !

I actually was having this problem too, at first. I like ChompSMS for the quickreply/compose, and thought it was this at first, but figured out it was doing it in the stock app as well. But, another thing that I found is that if you long-press the message that has something attached to it, I could save the attachment and then view it. Message details also verified that it was a multimedia message.
I don't suppose yours is doing something similar?

Atrix 2 Users on ICS + Straight Talk

Ok i am on the ICS leak and my carrier is Straight Talk. I know there are a few other ST users here. What apn setting are working for You.
The settings i was using on GB are not working completely on ICS. I cant send or receive mms messages.
Also i cant get Wifi tethering to work when i enable it i get a message "Data Link Lost"
Anyone have any luck deleting the AT&T apn's???

I'm also using a different carrier and the only solution I found was editing the database by hand..
