I was having this problem so was my wife. Data was down for a few hours one day due to a outage. After that for about a week mms was hit or miss. So its probably a outage I'm your area give T-Mobile a call and fond out for sure. Also could be your apn settings. Try restoring apn settings back to default

Duplicate text messages being received by people on AT&T Network

I am having an issue where people on the AT&T network are telling me when I send txts they are receiving a significant portion of the messages twice. Is this a verizon issue or a phone issue?
I am running DAS Bamf remix 1.7.
If anyone could help it would be much appreciated.
Okay I just was told by someone on Verizon they are receiving duplicate txts as well. Any suggestions, I am using the default SMS msging app that comes with sense.
i've had it happen to people off and on over the years, so I would hope that its not a phone issue.
problem is today its happened a ton of times so I am getting concerned they had me pull my sim card which made no difference
Do you think I should unroot back to stock before calling again?
I reverted back to stock and havent had a issue yet, wonder why
yeah ive had this happen to me rarely, but i dont think its because of the phone, my theory is that its the network just doing it randomly, but thats just my thought
Even at 100% stock it still did it.
I am going to call them up again. I think its random too cause some days it doesnt happen I am being told by my friends.
did that to me the other day as well. Stock, not rooted thunderbolt. I think its a verizon problem.
Happens to me to like every too months.....

this has happened to me for years off and on. that I know of there's nothing you can do about it.

My phone is not receiving text messages but it can send

This is the first time this has ever happened. I've been using MIUI v 2.3.9 and it happened just last night, just suddenly stopped receiving texts. Anyone know what I should do?
Couple of things:
Is your data turned on?
Have to you checked your APN settings?

It sounds like typical AT&T being a tard. But in any case it isn't, try these APN settings.

If none of that works, wait a day or call at&t and see if there's an issue in the area. If none of that works, you will probably have to factory reset.
Did you try sending a message to yourself?

Ok im gonna try the APN thing, I tried it last night but I don't know if I had the right settings in. I called ATT last night they couldn't figure it out. If all else fails I shall factory reset thank you !!
Factory data reset fixed it, I'm wondering if I had reached a capacity of text messages on my phone or something? it's weird but as soon as I factory reset the phone, all the messages flooded through!!

I can't say I've ever had that happen before. Weird! I'm just glad you got it fixed. I still recommend those APN settings though

MMS over WiFi?

I'm wondering if this is a problem across the board. Lately in have been running a few different ROMs. Hyperdrive, moar and the most recent moar 5.0.1. I have noticed that my MMS won't go through while I am on WiFi. I don't know if this has been a problem for a while and I haven't noticed it. I really like the app textra, and unjust started using it the other day. I thought that was the issue. Uninstalled it and I am still having the problem.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

I really hope someone has a cure for this because it has been driving me insane. I shouldn't have to turn off wifi every time I want to send an mms to someone!
I'm on MOAR 5.0 v13

I'm thinking it's a rom issue because I just wiped my phone and installed cyanogenmod and I can send and receive mms messages over wifi without any trouble
are u using a network extender by chance when your on WiFi?

I always thought it was a network thing. I thought they required you to send and receive MMS through the cell towers because they're stored at Verizon servers before being passed along to the recipient. I had the same issue on my LG Ally, haven't tried MMS over WiFi on my gs3, but now I'm curious.

No, I'm not using a network extender. Interesting thing tho. MMS will not go thru at all on MOAR or Hyperdrive. I flashed bonestock 3.1 and when I send an MMS over wifi, the 4G turns on (so now the wifi icon and 4G are on) and it will send the MMS.......hmmmmmm
MMS / SMS are both sent over data networks, as this is the only way VZW can count how many you send, thus being able to bill those who do not have unlimited text messages. (this came from a VZW rep when i called in to get a work order on my phone, as mine wouldn't work)
When the S3 first came out, there was an issue with the devices as a whole, fully stock and unrooted, having problems sending text messages when the phone was on WIFI. The process is, when you hit send, it will shut off your WIFI, switch to data, send message, and then switch back to WIFI without you noticing it.
however, in the beginning, there was an issue with the phone doing this. AND this was even before rooting the phone. VZW and Samsung had to do a fix for their radios to get the phone to work correctly.
so what you are probably seeing, is an issue with that switching, not that the message won't go over WIFI, cuz unless these DEVs have figured out how to make messages go over internet instead of data network, then the issue is a ROM issue with the switch.
hope that makes sense...

Unfortunately, this is the answer that is most often given, but not very helpful (no offense). I think the majority of people with the issue at this point understand that MMS is sent via data networks by design, the problem is, it is not functioning properly. It is NOT shutting off the WiFi, therefore it is not sending at all. I've had different periods of success, where it'll work for a week, then back to the same ****. I've never rooted my phone, so it's a stock ROM issue that still remains.
always had issues sending MMS messages on roms other than stock when I was at home with my network extender...I kept messing with the APN settings last night... I changed the other thing to GSM and tried to connect to at & t towers.. after it failed only then it would have multiple choices of APN settings ..I have all the roaming options checked and the LTE/CDMA is checked...I've been able to send MMS messages with no problem now.

Just an update I'm on liquid smooth 4.2.2 and it automatically turns network data on if I have it off in order to receive/send mms. This is what I was looking for.

[Q] Delayed Text Messages on 3G

Hey guys,
Been with Sprint for awhile now, and I don't recall noticing this before. But so long as I am on 3G and NOT LTE, then all my incoming texts are delayed by at the very least 5 minutes. Sometimes even up to 20 minutes.
I am running MOAR ROM, Lollipop. My initial question is if anyone running stock has this issue? If not, I will return to stock and check it out to see if maybe its my account. I remember before I had a similar issue with T-Mobile, and they had to re-add my phone back to their network. I'm trying to dial down the issue and see if it is something I can fix or if I need to travel to sprint's store.
Thanks all.
Seriously? Nobody running stock can say "I get texts fine on 3g" or "I'm running stock and have delayed messages too". Wow.

MMS issues with T-Mobile

Switched to T-Mobile earlier this year. Brought my 5t over from att. Love the service but I had mms issues off the bat. Mainly at work which is an hour north from my home. At home it was OK most of the time. At work though I'd get the "mms message waiting to download" message. Sucks becuese my work team uses group chat to talk. I'd have like 30 mms messages waiting to download. Same with sending
It will take forever. The messages eventually send or come in but it can take a half hour. Called customer support and they said it was due to tower upgrades by my work and it will be fine soon. Doesn't explain why I had the issue at home once in a while. Fast forward to getting the 7 pro. Got it from them and had zero mms issues. Rooted it and flashed international firmware a few weeks back and the issue came back. Apn is the same. Signal strength is the same. I'm lost. Anyone have any ideas?

I searched months back with my 5t, and 2 weeks ago when I switched firmware. That thread is 4 days old. Also got 4 replys in and switched topics so not sure how that's helpful.
