I've had a lot of problems with receiving and sending MMS lately.
As always, T-Mobile has been no help and has said everything is working fine on their end.
When i try to send it just says "sending and never does anything" and i usually don't get people's pictures.
I've even tried to change ROMS and still have the same problem. I'm currently on the ICS AOSP one.
Any help?

Did you lose your imei when flashing? That is typically the only reason to not be able to send texts if you have service otherwise.
Are you sure that you have your data turned on? MMS won't send or receive without it
Sent from my Unicorn powered SGS4G
my normal texts work.
and yes my data is on. When i try to send it says "sending..." and never does anything (has said it for over 12 hours now) in the mean time ive done other things using data such as web browsing and using apps. So i know my data works.
Same problem here

Was having this problem last week, and now it's degraded to the point that my data is gone too. GVoice is working sporadically only. I still have SMS and calling though. Only 2G gives me any data.

Factory reset/data wipe. It sucks to have to set the phone back up but Im sure it will help.
Whenever that happens I send an mms to myself. Somebody from t mobile said that would fix it, maybe in the my touch 4g forum, had no idea why though. Something worth trying at any rate

I actually just did that yesterday. Didn't solve the problem. I also reflashed AOKP. That didn't work. I restored to a backup of Milestone 6-1. That didn't work. I reflashed KJ6 modem. That didn't work. I flashed KG4 modem. That also didn't work. So far the only thing that seems to give me some data is running it on 2G only. I think on Monday, I'm going in to get the phone exchanged for a new one, and I'll just do a fresh flash right out of the box to ICS from stock GB. (Of course, following all the directions.)

Using the heimdall one click to stock kj6 flash back to stock. Then use the antonx one click, it sounds like you just have dust bunnies that needs sweeping up.

I'd thought about doing that, I guess I'll try it right now, since I've got time. Would I be able to just install SGS Kernel Flasher and flash AntonX's kernel from that after using Heimdall to stock rooted?
EDIT: Sorry I'm kind of hijacking this thread, but I Heimdalled back to stock, but I'm still having the connectivity issues. I have full 4G signal, but data is crawling to the point where the connection times out before I can even load anything. When I set it to GSM only (EDGE), I can get data, but not the 4G speeds I'm paying for. Reverting to Plan A and getting it replaced on Monday. (I hear it's possible it's a SIM card problem too...) Thanks for the help though.

Alright flashed the brand new GB radio from "someplace." Still have same problem. Sometimes I have full bars but no 3g and can't get calls tried to test and calls don't go through so my phone is kinda pointless... I'm really panicking I need this thing...
When you installed the new radio did you also install the LTE radio?

There are not two separate radios to install. If you downloaded MR3, it will work if you're on a GB Rom. If you're on a froyo Rom then you need a froyo radio.
Also check to make sure your battery door is completely attached. Your antennas are in the door and it must be attached.

Went back to MR2 radio now since I know it's not a radio issue. Battery door is completely sealed. Checked to see if the metal was bent in any way and it's not.
EDIT: Every time I reboot it gains bars back for a bit but no 3g. I've tried calling during this period to no avail. Then it looses bars with just an x over them. The one thing I am thinking is there any possibility that the sim just died...
Did you check your mobile network settings? Are you on LTE only mode possibly?
As goofy as it sounds, when I first rooted my TB awhile back I completely lost signal then was able to pick up 1x and that was it. I did a factory reset on the device (as instructed by VZW), and it actually worked. Nothing else had been done to the device besides a root, no one else could figure out what exactly went wrong, but the wipe restored it back to "factory" root and it worked perfectly.

No LTE/CDMA. I have done like 30 factory resets lol. Called Verizon to make sure there was no outage. I'm getting a new device (Not refurbished shockingly) over-nighted. The big bummer is having to reroot and such, but hey the guy was nice about it and everthing so no complaints. I can live without it for one day. Thanks for all your help guys!
Rooted with Altered Beast just a few days ago. Flashed Gummy Charged 1.9.1. No issues until I downloaded the wifitether app. After a reboot shortly after using the wifitether app my 3G/4G (data) has completely gone away. I have wiped/flashed lots of times. My boot animation seems to have an issue as well. Kinda flashes in and out almost like it is getting stuck. I also tried a reflash of ABeast through Odin as well. Anyone have any ideas?
I'm going to try to go back to stock. I'll let you know what happens.
I made it back to stock, but no success in getting data back. Any suggestions?
Gonna go out on a limb here and say that Verizon noticed u trying to use it and cut your data...... or u just have moblie data turned completely off? Either way id takebit to Verizon, could just be a bad similar card

i always wonder why people flash Altered Beast still, only cuz its so dated... anyway you got back to stock, now have you tried odining different modems? or even flashing a different rom? either a froyo one or GB...
Id odin a new modem try this its ep1q just odin in pda http://www.mediafire.com/?96cc17rha8a7o1a if it works Id go to ep1w. Also when you got to stock did it say missing sim and not let you activate your phone and did you remove your sim?? If your able to activate its not your sim card it could be the modems. As for the altered beast I only started flashing about a month ago and there are so many threads about how to get cwm... I (being paranoid) read posts for a full week before flashing. What I realized is there should be an updated sticky on the most updated ways to get to root and rom. Now that I know what im doing (kinda) I can read the posts and know whats what..when your new to this its damn confusing. An altered beast was the first link I came to when researching.
It was def. the sim card. Took it to VZ today and had it replaced. Not sure what killed it though?
Flashed a few roms on my phone and never bricked it whats so ever. It shows the IMEI, how ever it doesnt match the IMEI it have on on the back of the phone. The phone came with 2.2.1 Froyo and i upgraded it with ODIN using KJ6 2.3.6 GB rom. I can connect to wifi and such. It's not the sim card cause it works with all my friends tmobile phones. I get bars on the phone with the sim card in it. But when i attempt to make a call it says "Not registered to Network" i went to Settings>Wireless and network>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names, i went there to do the APN Manually i tried setting it to Default and it didnt help either.
Anyone know's how to fix this?

I got all day to try to fix this. I don't want to try reflashing things cause i don't know if i can mess it up or cause more problems.
So.... you have flashed a few ROMs..... meaning you have at least ONE nandroid back up from when the phone worked?
If you do... you are good to go. If you don't..... good luck to you. You have what sounds like a generic IMEI.

Well i don't, didn't know i have to. So in other words it's impossible to get this phone back on?
I had the same issue with my phone, it just wouldn't stay on Network, and the SIM would go back and forth from being recognized or not. I flashed back to stock and it still didn't work. The ten minute battery pull was suggested in another thread and a few people swear it works. Mine played up before this was suggested so I never tried it.
I had the same thing happen with my wifes phone and all I could link it to was the Kj6 modem...see link below. I reflashed the whole ROM and it came back.
With my phone I just called T-Mo and told them that since I upgraded to 2.3.6 via Kies that my phone wasn't working properly (Technically true, but a little stretch). I flashed Bhundvens 1click to stock, factory reset, etc...etc... then paid $20 and got a replacement phone via UPS in about 4 days.
I not saying you are having the same problem as I did, but it sounds very similar.
As a side note, the replacement SGS4G (refurb) they sent me absolutely blows my original handset out of the water when it comes to signal strength. I get solid 4G speeds of 5MB+ in my house, where before I only got patchy edge. I was amazed at the huge difference in performance between two supposedly identical handsets.
I hope you can get this remedied without an exchange, but you should be able to get a new one for $20 as a last resort.

Back ups are suggested all over this forum. Now you know. It is not impossible... google 'generic imei' and look at the dozens of ways people have had success and failure trying to remedy it. There are a ton of threads in the SGS 4G forum alone.
And whether you fix it or get a new phone... make a back up of your efs folder FIRST thing along with a nandroid back up. It will save your ass if this ever happens again.

Has anyone had problems with receiving text messages with the Charge? Every now and then people would ask me why I never responded to their texts and I would never even get them. Sometimes it even happens while having a full conversation via text, the person wouldn't answer my last text and it would turn out that it's my phones fault for not receiving it. Sending texts is fine.

I suggest you should:
1. Roll back to FP1 and keep that for awhile see if the issue resolved.
2. If not resolved, contact Verizon support, they can see if there's any network issue or SIM card issue. They can eventually send you a new SIM card or swap out your phone.
It's happened to me too while texting my girlfriend. It happened twice at he most inopportune moments, so we both thought we were mad at one another and stopped answering. Interesting. Are you sure it's a problem with the phone and not just verizon network issues?

Hey all,
Ugh, didn't mean to post yet!
I just updated from CM9 to 10.2 in the hopes it might fix this bug, but it didn't. I suspect then that it's not ANYTHING to do with a ROM per se but I'm perplexed as to what it is.
The behaviour is:
- I get a voice mail
- After listening to the voice mail, deleting it, and hanging up, the notification doesn't disappear
- Some time later, I get a repeat notification of the voice mail
- During this time, I can't receive any texts
- About a DAY later, the phone will realize that voice mail actually has been deleted
I've tried searching xda, and I've tried general googling, but I haven't pinned anything down. I've seen some references to what might be a similar bug, but not with these ROMs, and... honestly a couple of YEARS ago.

Unfortunately, I have the 959W rather than the 959V so I can't use it.
And I remember upgrading from gingerbread to CM9 was a lot tougher than I expected (I think getting the drivers to work right) and I had to get a LOT of help from a member here on the forum. IIRC there were a lot more reboots required of the phone / my PC to get things to work.
All in all I probably shouldn't mess around with ROMs. Hardware problems make me angry and frustrated.

O..didn't know you had the T959w..
Well I have seen something similar
On the Samsung GS4G Blaze..
They had a call fowarding bug that was carrying over on Roms..
It was something in CM11 that they
Figured was being written on the
Sim Card..and it was even carrying over to any Rom you flashed..
Once you got it... it didn't matter
what Rom you installed
full wipe or not it stuck..
They have Offical CM11 and the
CM team fixed it..but I remember it took a couple weeks..
Have you tried getting another
Sim Card..couldn't hurt..
Have you tried Force closing the
Phone Apk.and clearing data..
Also found this..
Here's what just worked for me on my Tmobile Galaxy S III
1) Pull the battery
2) Wait a few minutes with the battery out (I waited 5 minutes)
3) Pull the SIM card
4) Replace battery and power up phone. Wait until phone is fully booted
5) Power down phone
6) Replace SIM card and power up

Oh huh, I missed your reply till now.
I think force closing the phone app and clearing caches works but ONLY temporarily and then the problem reoccurs (when the phone decides to check for more voice messages?)
Man if this was something being written on the sim card and not a ROM thing that'd be really annoying. But couldn't I "just" wipe the whole sim card? That's gotta be possible, right?
I'm trying the pull-battery-and-sim-card just to see what happens.
On the plus side I found some old posts of mine on the forum and realized that I only ever used this new computer for flashing stuff. So I just have to figure out which USB port worked last time... the usb drivers should still be installed and everything.
^ Just curious what modem are you using? Is it patched to work on MTD partitions layout? Is it the stock one from Wind the Canadian carrier?
Try using modem LB6 for 959w/v patched to work for mtd roms, hope this will fix the issue.

I believe I am using the LB6 - certainly, I'm not using the stock. (The only confusion is that I've got zip files on my PC for the LB6 and a KG4 modem.)
Whatever modem I have on my phone was working fine prior to some upgrade of CM9 (IIRC).
God!!!
So I got Heimdall working again, flashed to stock, reformatted my SD card, re-updated to CM10... and I'm getting the same problem again!
So either it's the CM 10 ROM or something with my phone company! GRRRR...
Maybe the next step is to go back to stock and then just try CM 9. Or even CM 7 or something... put a modem on the stock ROM and see if THAT still ****s up.
Aaaaand stock + LB6 modem gets the voice mail notifications.
!%()*!%()*!#% phone company!
