What's an MMS - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Seriously.. I haven't been able to receive one with my One X.. At least not on a custom ROM.
How can I fix this, it's very annoying. can't send or receive

You might wanna try asking in the ROMs thread. They will be able to help you a little more

It doesn't work on any ROM. I don't even know if it worked when I was stock/unrooted..
Maybe AT&T did something when they upgraded my 3G to 4G LTE..?

MMS requires a data connection. Even when on wifi, it will engage your cellular data connection. If you disable mobile data they won't send or receive. Also check your APN settings, there are settings specific for the MMS routing.
Everything above the screen shot should be blank.
If that doesn't fix it, give AT&T a call.

Try adding the other items into the APN type

Is it only that person, can you send one to yourself?
If that won't send or download I would call att and have them check.

Can't send to anyone, Can't receive from anyone.

Call AT&T, they can reset your phone....had to do this last night.
They will ask you to shut it off and then power it up, they will get it registered again on the mobile network.
Be sure to call technical support not customer support.
Good Luck!

Check within the Messaging app (or 3rd party messaging app, if you are using one) that the MMS size is set low enough. On ViperXL, mine had to be set to 300 kb in order to send a picture. I think AT&T's network limit is 600 kB. Custom ROMs sometimes have the limit set much higher, and a pic simply won't go if its set over AT&T's limit.
But this would only explain why pics can't be sent. They should still be received ok.

Problem with texting.

Hello,
Every time I send a text that's 2 texts long (meaning more than 160 letters), it shows up as gibberish like:
"&(&@($&#( $#$#($(#JH$(#&(@N!(@*^(H"
I'm using Handcent app because it allows a text longer than 160 chr's to be split automatically into 2. Only problem is.. that's what the other person receives.
Any ideas?

Does this happen with everyone you send a text to, that is over 160char? Let's say a Sprint user vs. a Tmobile user?

I don't know anyone who has T-Mobile but so far it's like that with Sprint and AT&T.

Glad it's not just my crappy phone.
Oh well, it's been a nice ride. I'm switching to an Evo 3D Friday. =D
Same issue here. I'm past my 30 days though so going to try and find someone on craigslist to trade me after they decide they don't like their E3D!

I was using Handcent and had the same issue. I was sure that I had the messages split but when I went into the settings it was set to "don't split". I think when Handcent's app updated once it changed that setting. I changed it back to "Split by word & add counter" and it's worked ever since.
Handcent sending jibberish
I had the same issue with the smae phone and configuration. Not everyone who recieved the email got jibberish, and it seemed to be more carrier related than phone specific. Changing the split setting worked for me.
Same issue stock app

Its an issue with the way the cdma network reads texts sent that exceed 160 characters in one text. Phone configuration doesn't matter. Nor does root matter. It you're using a Sprint Nexus S and you send a text beyond 160 characters your phone will probably have this issue. For now you must use a third party text app and split your messages that exceed 160 characters.

OK, there is an issue with select Motorola Photon Q's where the MMS function doesn't work on the stock messaging application. I actually had mine replaced over the issue, as I was unable to send or receive MMS. This should not be an issue with the network. From my understanding, Sprint is aware of the issue, as the store I bought my phone at called them to try to fix the issue. So, an OTA should come out with the fix.
Now, there is a workaround that has worked for me. Use another messaging app, such as Go SMS Pro, and MMS will work.

So glad I found this thread..On my third Photon Q in three days. First had a defective vibrate motor..the second would not send or receive MMS unless using WiFi so they replaced it. Third one is doing the same thing. Just installed Handcent SMS and its working perfect using the 3G. Maybe someone should forward this to Sprint? I after two hours wasted with tech support and several tickets created, I am thrilled with the phone now. I love everything about it except the MMS not working. Thanks guy!!
There has been a fix for this issue as per the Sprint discussion board. I have verified it has fixed my MMS problem. You will need your MSL to change a setting, if you dont have it you need to call sprint or use another method to obtain it. It appears some data profile usernames were borked during provisioning
Steps to follow:
1. Open your dial pad and dial ##3282#
2. Tap on Data Profile
3. Look at your username, mine ended in ".comom"
4. If yours is obviously wrong (like mine), fix it, save it and then reboot phone.
5. good to go.
Yepe... Mine says .compcs.com... Gonna have to call Sprint.
Thanks for this.

What should the user name be? Mine ends in sprintpcs.comcs.com. I assume that is wrong and it should be sprintpcs.com?

MMS received very small (AT&T)

if anybody else is having this issue, they way I got it resolved was by using go sms pro and going into settings>MMS Settings >Fill user agent manually>User Agent = nexusone

I have a problem with screen shots from Iphones. I was having an issue with all MMS being small for a while and I called ATT and spoke with one of their tech reps for almost an hour and she sent me some new protocol for my sim card and that appeared to work.
Maybe you guys could post this in the already existing thread.

just call someone on the same carrier and area as you and get the number from them, or you could flash a sense rom. call forwarding is the only area i know that has the number if you previously disabled all call forwarding then i guess it will be missing.

The best way to get the proper apn settings is to call the provider. They will tell you what they are. It may be faster than waiting for a response from someone here.

This is true. But AT&T's apn, should be all over Google. Plus, most of the time, when calling tech support, they have no clue what APNs are, are they may refer to what they have in their systems (BROADBAND, PHONE, PDPWAP1, PTA, etc).
