[Q] APN Settings for MMS

Seems like every time I flash a ROM, my APN settings won't allow me to send/receive MMS. Does anyone have a setting that works?
My following set up (Which is default):
Name: ATT
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: Blank
Port: Blank
Username: [email protected]
Password: CINGULAR1
Server: Blank
MMSC: wireless.cingular.com
MMS Port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication Type: Blank
APN Type: default,supl,mms
APN Protocol: IPv4
---------------
I am currently using Ninja ROM, and if you have configured the APN settings to have MMS work, please share the settings.
I have searched everywhere and nothing. Even asked in the Ninja thread, and the only response you get is "Oh, mine works...". That's basically a F U. Not helpful responses.
Thanks.

Not sure if you mistyped something, but the MMSC field is not supposed to read: wireless.cingular.com. Make sure it reads: http://mmsc.cingular.com
Also, your Proxy and Port fields should read:
Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
Port: 80
You don't list your MMS proxy field, but it should read: wireless.cingular.com
If the above changes don't fix anything, then let's try breaking out your MMS connection into a separate APN. Use this method (from my APN thread):
Standard warning applies here: as always, before making any major config changes be sure to fully backup your ROM. If you mess up real bad or something goes unexpectedly wrong, then you might permanently lose your connection with no recourse other than a complete restore.
Step 1. Delete all APNs
If you're not already at your APN screen, then from your home screen press Menu button --> Settings --> Wireless and networks --> Mobile networks --> Access Point Names
Press the left side of your 1st APN to go into the settings of this APN, then press Menu>>Delete APN.
Repeat this process for any other APNs you have. The goal is to delete all APNs so we can start from scratch.
Now do the next steps in the same order as below:
Step 2. Create a new APN (Menu>>New APN). Everything is case sensitive and must be entered exactly as below. This will be your 1st APN:
Name: MEdia Net
APN: Phone
MMS protocol (if applicable): WAP 2.0
MCC: (don't change this number)
MNC: (don't change this number)
APN type: default,admin,hipri (notice there is no space on either side of the commas)
APN protocol (if applicable): IPv4
everything else: <Not set>
Press Menu>>Save. You will now be back at the initial APN screen.
Step 3. Create another APN (Menu>>New APN). Everything is case sensitive and must be entered exactly as below. This will be your 2nd APN:
Name: MMS
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
Port: 80
Username: [email protected]
Password: CINGULAR1
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS port: 80
MMS protocol (if applicable): WAP 2.0
MCC: (don't change this number)
MNC: (don't change this number)
APN type: mms,supl (notice there is no space on either side of the comma)
APN protocol: IPv4
APN protocol (if applicable): IPv4
everything else: <Not set>
Press Menu>>Save.
You will now be back at the initial APN screen again. Make sure the 1st APN (named MEdia Net) is selected (via the round radio button on the right side). Your data connection will drop for a few seconds.
We are done at this point. Let me know if this works for you. If not, it is probably a software problem in your ROM somewhere.

I've tried this method you've posted. First of all, thank you.
Now, after setting up both APN's, neither seem to work to get MMS to function. I am not sure why.
I will call AT&T next week.

Hmmm, well at least we gave it a shot. The dual APN config should have worked for you, as it's the same as what comes on the stock ROM. I suppose one last thing you could try would be to get your phone back to pure stock and see if MMS works then. This stock RUU is located in this thread. It is an executable file that you run on your PC, and it completely wipes the phone, unroots it and brings it back to factory stock. If that doesn't work, then maybe your account isn't allowing MMS or something. Good luck either way.

I know it would work on stock, and stock rooted. But with any other ROM I flash, MMS won't work.
Again, thanks for your help. Its no deal breaker, just wish it would work.

I had the same problem I had to change the radio/ril back to stock to get it to work

I did that too on Ninja. And since I'm running Ninja ROM on mine, it seems its only able to use Single APN's.
I don't know.

No MMS no matter what ROM/KERNEL/firmware etc...

Like the title says, since the second ROM I ever installed, (CM7 alpha 10 I believe) I have not been able to send/receive MMS on any combo of software , ICS or GB, kernel , etc. I have verified the APN's, still nothing... my plan allows unlimited, so unfortunate that I can't use it...Any ideas are welcome

I have the same problem with MMS as well.
I opened a topic in Q/A section but no one replied...

I don't know if this helps or not, but It seems like people with American Carriers, or T-mobile tend to not have issues with MMS. I don't know if this would work, but maybe comparing APN settings and seeing if anything is missing may work?

Settings -> More.. -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names ->
at this point I had three or three options...
I assume they were: T-Mobile, T-Mobile Data, and T-Mobile MMS
Now since I use Simple Mobile, I had to change the T-Mobile to Simple Mobile with all the correct settings, and for MMS to work I also had to change the T-Mobile MMS APN with the same exact settings as the Simple Mobile APN.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
One other way you may try, after putting all the correct settings;
Where is says APN Type, write "mms" (without quotes)
Give it a try. Hope it helps.

Problem is, I'm on Bell Canada...

I'm on Wind and I cant neither send nor receive mms but I think my settings are correct since the phone detected it automatically. Any ideas ?

I am with O2 uk and also had this issue. I contacted them and they emailed their latest apn settings to me, which I copied in to my settings and my mms then worked fine. I think when some custom roms search for the apns automatically they pick up out of date settings. Just phone your carrier and ask for the apn settings for mms as if you are getting internet but no mms on several roms it can only be due to incorrect apn.

For those having trouble with Rogers, I wasted quite a bit of time trying to figure out why I couldn't send/receive MMS. Solution for me was this:
1. USE ONLY THIS APN, DELETE ALL THE OTHER APNS - For some reason, it conflicted and when I deleted all the other unnecessary APN's it worked great again. Here's what I used and ONLY this one for Rogers Canada. The internet.com apn doesn't work for me, fortunately I found this one that works!

ive never ever had problems with these settings on any other rom i have downloaded alot of them also. I am so confused i am not sure if i have a setting set up wrong or something or what but it won't work at all. I even tried to uninstall and reinstall it again and still no go

Did you make sure from straight talk themselves that you have no problem in your account data wise ? other than that remove the proxy and port from the apn (i.e. no need for mvno.trac...... or the next 80) ....

[Q] Please post definitive APNs to force 2G/3G/4G

I have been looking for this info for hours today and can't find a simple response.
I tried the *#*#4636#*#* trick, it doesn't stick.
Can someone post APNs that force 2G, 3G, and 4G non-LTE for the AT&T One X?
Is there a working mod that installs a toggle for this?

4636 trick is working fine for me.. but i'm not in AT&T..i'm using it in india and using cleanrom std.

I'm going to answer one of my own questions here folks, this is the LTE (true 4G) disable.
go to Settings>Mobile Network>Access Point Names
Click the Menu button, and select "New APN"
Enter the following:

APN: wap.cingular

does the above APN give anyone constant disconnects/reeaallly spotty 4G?

Its a known issue and it happens with everyone. Most likely because the LTE radio is still active , it just cant connect because the APN wont authenticate it. We need a true LTE off switch

[Q] LTE and Data random disconnects

I recently flashed to the uclf5 galaxy S3 r4 rom with mohans kernel and I love it. The only problem is the Data connections. The original APN that installed in the flash would connect and had great speeds but would not allow me to send or receive picture messages. Standard text's were ok but no pictures.
I looked around google and the XDA forums and tried a couple of new APN's. I finally got one that would connect and send pictures but it wasn't connecting to 4G LTE only 4G, 1st world problems yes but I wanted the LTE. as I continued searching I managed to get one to connect to LTE and still send pictures and everything was working perfectly, Except now the phone randomly disconnects from all connections with a little circle with a line through it instead of connection bars and obviously no data or phone calls. If I toggle back and forth between APN's I can get it to connect again but it's very intermittent sometimes it'll stay connected for hours other times for just minutes.
I originally had the SKYICS Superlite Rom installed and didn't have any connection issues what so ever and i'm completely at a loss as to what's going on now.

I'm not sure how that last one works but it does.
These settings do work, but again pretty much at will. this morning i woke up and was conected to edge. that was scary...
I'm not sure if its my settings or tge radio or something else entirely. any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've been having the same problem. Everything will work for a few seconds then I get a "null cell state delivered" message when I check logcat. Changing APNs didn't work for me but how are you getting to the APN settings? Every time I try I just get a dialog box that tells me to insert a sim card.
