Not getting/sending pics through mms - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I have noticed that I have not been able to send or receive pictures through text. I am on rogers in Canada. In talking to a few rogers users, they have noticed the same thing. My friends on telus don't have issues, except when they send me a picture.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Have you tried using WiFi instead of data of vice versa? Also, check if your APN settings are correct for your Rogers connection are correct under System Settings > More > Mobile networks > Access Point Names (APNs)

Awesome, thanks, I did star it too.
My Telus friends are Iphones & Android 2.2.1, 2.3.6 respectively, so no issue there.
What is the APN settings for rogers supposed to be? I got "rogers-core-appl1-apn"
Thanks again,

I'm puzzled - help please

I am seeking the help/advice of the many knowledgeable members of XDA to help me understand and hopefully resolve an issue that I'm having with my rooted HTC Dream. The issue is with mms, I don't seem to be able to send or receive. I've only tried send/receive pics. I don't believe that it is a rooting problem so much as an unlocking issue since my son's unlocked/unrooted Dream has the same issue. The phones are both Rogers branded unlocked and both on Telus network. I have checked double checked & triple checked the APN settings and all appear to be correct. I also have no problem with web browsing. Any assistance in understanding/resolving this issue will be appreciated.

HTC One S, calling and text but no data?

Hey guys, I just got an HTC One S (t-mobile version but unlocked) and I started using it on Mobilicity. The calling and texting work fine but for some reason the data is not. I have tried restarting the mobile network but that hasn't helped. I have read about a similar problem someone had but one of the possible solutions was something about an APN setting which I have no idea about (sorry I'm new here ). Can anyone help?
try this thread, it might help you

You need the correct APN settings for data to work.
Follow the above thread for settings for your carrier.
That helped alot, it seems to be working fine now, thanks a lot.

Cannot Accept/Send Calls or Texts! Someone please help!!

I can't get any sort of data signal at all from my phone! IT's already been 3 days since this happened and I can't change my APN, nor does switching the modem version work, what do I do?? I would really hate to call AT&T because they'll just blame the phone being rooted and expect me to go back to stock Gingerbread.
So someone please help me so that I wouldn't have to do that!

Have you tried ODIN back to stock to eliminate any potential external issues? I saw your post yesterday in my APN thread. At this point I would go back to stock and see if that helps and then from there root/flash the ROM of your choice.

Have you checked if you have your IMEI number?.? *#06# on dialer or look through the phone info in settings...
I had this issue once. This is what worked for me: settings > wireless & networks > mobile networks > use packet data [should be checked] ~ data roaming [should be unchecked]. My issue may have been different than urs. Good luck.

I just installed the new CM 10.1 and I have the same problem. Actually I've had it mostly with all the JB softwares out there that I tried. Could the signal problem be related to the IMEI? I think I've lost, indeed, my IMEI by changing to JB but could that be my problem? Yesterday I placed a few phone calls and it worked. Now it just random disconnects and it woun't allow me to make any phonecalls. Also it takes 5-10 minutes before it connects to the network (Vodafone - if it makes any difference). I just figuered it was a modem problem but you got me wondering.
Thanks

[Q] Unlocked At&t htc one mini used on tmobile cant send/receive pics

Help! I am using an unlocked at&t htc one mini with a tmobile mini SIM. I configured the apn settings but I still can't send or receive pictures. Can someone please help?!
Anyone help me with this?!?!
Make sure you got the most current apn. I know here in the U.K there are 3 different t-mobile APNs that I know of.
Also the AT&T software might cause problems. It did for me when I flashed a AT&T based rom with my tethering.
You might want to think about using another rom.

Thx for the reply. I am definately no expert, anything you can refer me to on going about using another Rom?
what are your APN settings? I've done this with an AT&T phone on T-Mobile in the U.S. and had no issues after setting the APN.
Same exact issue and I for one know I've never had any issue ever sending mms on att device on tmobile network ...
None of us are apn dummies lol...
THIS MINI ON 4.4.2 JUST DOES NOT SEND OR RECIEVE MMS
We need help guys
This has to be a issue known to some and I'd bet there's a Fix floating around .
Think about it if you set your apn on any unlocked phone once you get your Data icon ... we have always gotten mms to work there after .
Any help guys ?

I'll upload screen shots of my APN setup when I get home from work. I have 4.4.2 on T-Mobile and my MMS works just fine.

Issues with MMS

Recently went to a CM12 build and even with CM11 I had the same issue. I am using ATT for my OPO and I can not send picture mails (mms) out of my messaging app. I changed to hangouts, and it sends out fine. Any one know why this is going on?
Thanks in advanced

Here they are, thank you so much for the reply
I'm on Rogers in Canada, in my case there's multiple APN on my Sim card..
I have an LTE APN and another APN for 3G I think. Everything else is the same within each APN, just the first couple lines are different. MMS doesn't work for me with the LTE APN but it works great with the 3G APN for some reason
Maybe your situation is similar?
I attached my APN list
In hangouts you're able to specify which APN you want to use, so I use LTE APN for my phone while I chose 3G APN for hangouts. The new Google messenger app doesn't allow for this unfortunately..

That looks like the same one I am using. Did you have an LTE phone before this one on AT&T? Have you tried changing to one of the other AT&T APN settings seeing if it works or not then changing back?

What i ended up doing is getting off a daily cm12 build, and went to blissrom, solved all my issues. No idea why though.... using the same messaging app T_T
<3 thanks though
I have had similar results with different ROMs. Sometimes messenger app works fine with MMS and other times I have to use Hangouts. I also see this happening when people send MMS from iOS to me.
