mms settings

is there a reason y my mms doesnt work? i can send only to myself but everyone that tries sending me pics doesnt come through.....
ARHD 1.1.8 with no sense 1.5.2.............how do i fix this?

Try installed GO SMS or Handcent to see if you can send/receive MMS through one of those. This will at least narrow the problem down to network settings or a problem with the Messaging app. Have you tried contacting the ROM developer to see if it's a known issue?

Does data with out WiFi work? Its imperative that you check that since MMS travels through data. Also does newt support t mobile? I remember I had to choose a carrier

Yes it excepts tmobile and yes data works ive even turned off wifi to make sure and data works fine,this has me stumped ive tried every apn setting and still nothing thats why i was inquiring about what controls the mms file wise or if there is something in the build.prop that isnt right,it lets me choose either at&t or tmobile,keeps saying the dreaded "Generic network failure"

You may need to set to default apn. Google play has apps and downloads for it. Might not hurt to give it a try.

. Maybe try go sms app on market for kicks to see if its software related or something screwy . I had to actually call att once due to in there system mms pics was disabled on phn. Also see if you can recieve from other carriers and your carrier. You may just wanna ask for t2 support as t1 support just read from computer screen. Good luck let us know if we can assist you

[Q] AOKP mr2 MMS problem

Hello,
I've been using AOKP mr2 for the last few weeks, and I love it, except for two things. I cannot seem to be able to send or recieve MMS messages. If I try to send them, it just says "sending" forever. When someone sends one to me, I get a notification of a message, but when I open the notification, it takes me to the send a new message screen, and if I go to whoever sent me the message in the messaging app myself, there is no new message there. I looked through the forums, but couldn't find a solution (though my search-fu isn't very strong).
The other problem I only mention because it could be related. My data connection isn't very stable, and requires me to set it to airplane mode and back to re-establish, especially after I turn off Wi-Fi. This problem I can live with, and as I said I only mention in case it is related to the MMS issue.

Have you checked your APNs? Mms problems are usually caused by incorrect APN setup.

I have, they are the same that they were back when I was on mr1, with MMS acting correctly.

I'd be going with this advice.
Get your apn settings from your carriers website, don't just rely on the settings being the same as they were before.
Three nights ago I succesfully sent an mms.
Yesterday mine were stuck same as yours.
Checked my carriers settings, ****ed if I know how but they didn't match.

[Q] Having trouble sending sms/mms

*Note
I am on sprint
So I got nexus 5 yesterday, and cant seem to properly send or receive MMS.
I tried with and without WIFI, and to no avail.
I tried with and without google voice, 3rd party messaging app such as (go sms)
Is there solution to this? I just recently came back to android and im quite confused.
The mms won't get sent regardless of network im on.

I'm having the same problem. I can send them but I am not receiving any.

Did you come from iPhones?
---------- Post added at 01:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:18 PM ----------
I had the same problem coming from my iPhone 5. Its because your number is tied to iMessage. So if you still have your iPhone, go to settings, messages, turn off iMessage. And you should be good.

Actually no, i had my samsung galaxy s2 bricked and had no phone for few month. So my number is not associated with iphone stuff at all :/

Does your APN have the correct MMS settings for your carrier?

Dave

Go to:
Settings > More... (under wireless & networks) > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names
If there's no APN for Sprint then go find the correct APN details on the web or ask Sprint.
OR (have not tried this method)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1794956&page=1

These are only options in mobile network :/

Nexus 5 on iWireless (Iowa Wireless) Megatalk Pay-in-advance - Not able to send or receive MMS
Simply took my Nexus 4 SIM card, plugged it into my new Nexus 5.
Default APN settings attached. Wife complains that when she updated to SMS in Hangouts 2.0 on her Nexus 4, her MMS is now broken as well.

Also, I tried using Handcent SMS to see if it was simply a problem with Hangouts 2.0. It didn't work
I tried using the 'smart' settings in MMS setting as well as selecting Iowa Wireless directly and neither worked.

Having the same issue on iWireless. Had customer service screw with my n5 for about an hour last night and they got sending mms working receiving not so much. I have since screwed with it, and sending no longer works.
Anyone else have any luck?

Do you have a nexus 4 around? Try deleting all the APNs you currently have, and creating new ones to match the values that get set on the Nexus 4. I haven't been able to test my MMS so maybe PM me and we can test it out and then post our settings to this thread.

Update:
I added the PIAPicture Messaging APN to match what the Nexus 4 had when it did its "Reset to Default" in the APN settings. I don't understand why the APN 'default' settings over the air would be different between the Jelly Bean Nexus 4 and the KitKat Nexus 5.
Also, Now that the Nexus 4 got the KitKat upgrade, it defaults to the same settings that my Nexus 5 had; and it couldn't send/receive MMS.
I redid the settings in the Nexus 4 to match what I put on my Nexus 5 and it sends/receives MMS fine with the Messaging app (not the Hangouts app)
In summary, there appears to be some issue with the Hangouts app receiving MMS even after changing the APN settings to be correct. I was able to receive 1 MMS, then the rest come in as,
"Touch to download MMS message. Size:115KB. Expires 11/25, 1:23PM."
(the size changes depending on the size of the MMS however, which means it is 'sorta' seeing the MMS)
Whenever I touch the message, it looks like it is starting the download but times out.

MMS on ATT. How do I get it to work?

I've done a done of searching and I have no idea how I haven't found anyone with this issue. I can't get MMS to work on my N5. Textra just says unable to retrieve MMS and that I should check my APN settings but I can't find what settings should be in there. All my searching just comes up with MMS settings for some prepaid service.

MMS works on hangouts just fine. Try using that or check your apn settings.

Seriously? A Google search on "AT&T APN settings" gives you nothing?

Google: LTE apns for ATT. Hope this helps.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I'm having the same issue with Textra. I'm not sure when it exactly started. I think when I updated Quantum ROM to 3.15, but maybe when I froze the stock messaging app. I froze messaging because I would get an alert for incoming message both from messaging and from Textra and even if I swiped the messaging alert away, it would just pop back. I've tried unfreezing messaging and that didn't help (but I'm not getting the extra alert, now). I've found the APN settings on another post in xda forums, but they weren't different from my own. I then when through all of Textra settings and found one for APN settings and it had different MMS APN settings than the phone (it was set to cingular instead of att). I've made them match now and am waiting see if I can receive MMS again. I'd be a little surprised if this fixes it, though, because Textra didn't have any trouble with MMS last month and I never went into the setting for it before.

If you're still having issues with this, I finally got Textra to work on AT&T by changing the size limit of mms to 1mb or below. I emailed Textra's devs and they told me that some carriers limit the size of mms. I guess Textra compresses mms automatically because I was able to send and receive photos just fine after I changed that setting. I was so frustrated with the APN settings, but it turned out to just be the size limit issue. How that helps.
