I have some issues with my Skyrocket. It likes to take a long delay sometimes when trying to load anything with internet. Sometimes just 10-15 seconds, then loads perfectly. Other times, hours.
The only fix I have found with this is using the Tweakker app's APN settings for 4G(LTE). However, when I use this APN I can no longer receive MMS messages.
Can you guys tell me what APN settings I could use to be able to use my internet correctly AND get MMS?
Thanks for any help

search for AT&T PTA.
Turn on DATA in settings and it use data for a bit, reboot. and AT&T should force the PTA APN to your phone, it then becomes un-editable. Also, make sure you have the correct baseband radio; then the PTA apn will be pushed to you.
If you are still having issues recieving MMS. it's bcuz your MMS APK is AOSP. AOSP MMS won't let you receive pic msgs from non-android phones.
Again Please Search Before Posting New Thread!!!!!! I am sure you will find you answer!!!!!

First off, I am running Melvin's stock rom and the nociq fix posted in the development section.
Everything works flawlessly, I get good data speeds, and I can receive mms, but I am not able to send them. Could either Melvin's rom or the nociq fix have broken this?
I have tried all the APNs I could find in the Skyrocket forum, and with all of them I have the same problem. I'm not currently in an LTE area (Minneapolis, so hopefully soon...) but all of the APN settings I enter give me about the same data speeds and again none of them will recieve mms, however I am able to send them just fine.
Any insight into this would be wonderful! I use mms all the time.

Yes I did, and I just tried it again. Same thing-- using those APN settings, the internet works and sending mms works, but not receiving.
I really don't want to reflash the rom but I am about to...
I have tried running mulitple different configs for a single APN on CM7 however none of them seem to work fully. I have searched and not found one with a solution. Any single apn works great for constant data connection (i havent noticed a speed change with any) i can send and recive txt. HOWEVER if i recieve a MMS i get the option to dl but it will just sit and the pic/video will never download. Is there a way to get this working? if i reset to the default apn where i have one for phone and a separate for mms i can dl just fine but then my data drops again. Is there a working config for a single APN so i can stay connected to my data and my MMS messeges will download. I send/recieve alot of pictures from my phone that are of my kids or items i am selling online. I need to have this feature work and really dont want to switch to another rom.
thank you for any help.
This is super frustrating...people are sending me pictures, but all I see in the text thread is "Downloading". I've got full strength signal, and sometimes I'm also connected to WiFi.
Any ideas?

Hi,
Are you talking about MMS?
When I was on JB,I had to manually install my APN settings for MMS.
Google your MMs settings,and enter them manually.

Could you give me a hand if you've got a minute? I'm not quite sure what I'm looking for, or how to access those settings in the menu tree? Thanks a million!
EDIT:
I found the APN setting in the menu...I made a few changes, hopefully that will do the trick!
EDIT:
Nope. Still messed up. Could someone share their APN settings in here?

Hi,
I am not currently on JB.
Go to settings/mobile data/ and I think APN settings.
Have a look.
First you need to google your MMS settings.
You want your carrier and area.
When you get to your APN list,press the second button from the left on your phone,and select a "NEW" APN.
Enter the new configuration,save,and reboot.
Let us know if it works.
I'm on paranoid android (i.e. JB)
i can receive mms pictures by doing these things (I use stock aosp messaging app)
turn off wifi
turn on network data
ensure mms apn is correct
turn off auto retrieve in mms settings
when i receive an mms, i have to manually download the pic. not only the stock mms app won't download the pic automatically, if i turn on auto retrieve, i dont receive mms at all. however go sms can download pic automatically.
I have tried other apps like Textra, etc, but none of them can handle MMS properly. If I am on WiFi, MMS will never download or send. If I turn off WiFi, I have about a 50% success rate and they usually end up coming in hours later. I have tried different ROMs, different APN settings, different apps. It is a shame that T-Mobile sells this phone with pathetic MMS capabilities on their network. I understand it works fine with other networks, but T-Mobile is atrocious.
So, is there anyone out there using this phone T-Mobile who doesn't want to throw their phone in the ocean when dealing with MMS? I'd be interested to know your setup.
Thanks for your help?
not a single issue with sms or mms here, on tmobile in nyc. do you have the correct apn? or do you have it entered correctly? im using the fast.tmobile.com apn.
Same here no problems with native messaging app and textra
No problem with stock AOSP MMS or Hangouts or 8SMS. I did have trouble with another third party client but I don't remember what it was, think maybe Textra the same one you used.
No problems with MMS although I will admit I had some problems with MMS but that was the app's fault. I had to manually put the MMS because the auto detection wasn't working just yet. I'm using chompSMS. Textra SMS worked fine as well.
Ensure you have the right APN. Also the T-Mobile APN is fast.t-mobile.com the - matters.
No issues with Purity rom and MMS...
Go to Settings>Wireless&Networks>More>Mobile Network>Access Point Names and select T-Mobile. If there isn't one then add one with the name T-Mobile and the address as fast.t-mobile.com should fix your MMS issues

Which APN?
Are you on Android L? Sounds like the same issues I had. I tried all the APN tricks and it still wouldn't work. I would get them occasionally when off Wifi. On stock 4.4.4 I don't normally have issues with MMS.
As the title states I can no longer send or receive mms on att. The only thing I've done is root the phone. I installed Greenify but have since disabled it to make sure that's not the issue. Also I debloated some stuff but did that way before I rooted and way before the mms issue started. I checked my apn settings and nothing seems out of place. I created a new apn and changed the apn protocol from ipv4/ipv6 to just ipv4 per an older thread I found.
When I reboot the phone, all all of the mms will come through and I'm able to send them as well for just a few minutes and then the problem shows again. It doesn't matter which texting app I use either. Tried stock, Textra and handcent. All unique error messages of course but same issue.
Anyone else? Can't find anything similar.

Did you turn on your data?
Yes, data works fine.

Are you running AdBlock? If so, it's blocking ads and your MMS pictures on port 80. Switch your APN settings to MMS port 8080, and your MMS should work again. Had the same issue and took me a few hours to figure it out.
