[Q] MMS - General Questions and Answers

Hello,
I have Alcatel OT-995 using Android 2.3.6, I cannot send and receive MMS. Data works, APN settings are checked. Any suggestions?

What's your service provider? Have you checked with them? Have you used MMS successfully using another ROM on the same device?

Sorry for waiting, my service provider is "ONE" from Macedonia FYROM, they are assuming that is a software issue and that it will be solved with the next update(4.0.4) so I'm waiting for the update, and no i haven't tried with another ROM.

Unlocked my captivate...

Hey guys I just unlocked my phone using that galaxy s unlock app that was just created (thanks dev). I'm with rogers and tried a Bell SIM. Phone calls and sms worked fine and the service provider changed to Bell. I encountered a problem when trying to access the internet via 3G and it didn't work.. The 3G symbol was in my notification bar, and all other phone functions worked, anyone know a potential problem? Thanks

You need to input bell's apn settings before you can use its internet, do a search on google for them.

I ran it on my rogers captivate(think I was running 2.2 at the time but not 100% sure because I have flashed so many roms lately) it worked great for me!
downloaded it from the markey
Unlocked on 2.2 phone was 2.1 when I bought it.

Tmobile US Update kills Apn switching?

Got the update today for Tmobile HTC One S. It saved my APN's but now when I select one, it waits for a few seconds then automatically goes back to the Tmobile default one. Anyone else have this problem? I rather liked having MY epc.tmobile.com APN.
everybody who did the update.
T-MobileUS HTC One S running Stock Rooted 2.21.
Known work around?
There is none yet.
You have to use the default APN programmed into the phone or root and install custom rom.

Nope, as soon as screen goes off data stops
Foxfi works as long as the screen is on . Not rooted btw.

the fix is on my signature...
dont forget to hit the thanks...
For us not so much for a different provider but as a workaround to not have to pay for tethering.
That is what I have tried for a custom tmo apn and it didn't help.

[SOLVED] [Q] Sensation on CyanogenMod 10.1 can't send MMS

Hi everyone. I have recently been using CyanogenMod 10.1 and are currently on -20130720-Albinoman887-pyramid. It stopped sending MMS messages about June 10, it can still receive them. I tried updating the ROM, factory reset and have checked the APN settings many times. I read on the CM 10.1 page that they will start working again, but it has been 3 weeks and they still don't work. The stock messaging app just says "sending" the whole time. MMS was working on CM10.1 on my sensation start of the month, but not anymore. It is S-OFF and I have tried my SIM in another phone and it can send MMS messages in other phones.
Anyone else had this problem and found a solution?
Thanks for your time, Glen.
Maybe your apn of your carrier are wrong

The APN and carrier are unfortunately fine as these have been checked by the carrier and I can send MMS from other phones with my sim.

No mobile data with Marshmallow 6.0

Hi guys,
I recently flashed a Marshmallow 6.0 rom onto my phone and I have no mobile data connection at all, the only thing i'm allowed to do is make calls. My carrier is T-Mobile so I do switch to the APN settings but that still doesn't help, the phone is a AT&T phone keep in mind. This never happens when I flash a Lollipop rom. Can anyone help me out? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

That really does sound like an apn issue. If your using default ones maybe it's incorrect

So I flashed it and changed the APN settings and it still hasn't helped at all. I'm lost why this is not working.

Very strange. Maybe it's your provider?

I agree, I'll just play around with some of the APN settings again.
I am having the same issues! I went to AT&T's website (cant post link, too new of a member.), and followed all their instructions to a T. No luck! I just installed the stock 6.0.1 rom. Everything else is awesome!

I found the fix with the APN settings, all you have to do is cope the settings from 5.1.x to 6.0 and you'll be fine.

APN SETTINGS:
Name: T-Mobile US LTE
APN: fast.t-mobile.com
Username: none
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
APN Type: default,supl,mms
APN Protocol: IPv4
APN Roaming Protocol: IPv4
Been struggling with this problem on my LG G3 on TMobile as well. Here are things that are worth trying if you want to avoid a hard reset (as suggested by TMobile support):
1) Manually updating APN
2) Removing SIM card
3) Clearing system cache
4) Network settings reset
5) In Developer Menu: Use legacy DHCP client
6) In Developer Menu: Cellular data always active
7) Disable Binge by texting #263#
8) Flash radio back to Lollipop
I also noticed that whenever I used Advanced Task Killer it immediately killed my mobile connection, so that's something to be aware of.
Seems like APN updates resolve this for most people, though it did not resolve for me.

Where did you get the stock 6.0.1 ROM? Was this an OTA update? I thought only 6.0 was available.
