Can't receive pictures since flashing ROM? - HTC Sensation

This is super frustrating...people are sending me pictures, but all I see in the text thread is "Downloading". I've got full strength signal, and sometimes I'm also connected to WiFi.
Any ideas?

Hi,
Are you talking about MMS?
When I was on JB,I had to manually install my APN settings for MMS.
Google your MMs settings,and enter them manually.

Could you give me a hand if you've got a minute? I'm not quite sure what I'm looking for, or how to access those settings in the menu tree? Thanks a million!

EDIT:
I found the APN setting in the menu...I made a few changes, hopefully that will do the trick!
EDIT:
Nope. Still messed up. Could someone share their APN settings in here?

Hi,
I am not currently on JB.
Go to settings/mobile data/ and I think APN settings.
Have a look.
First you need to google your MMS settings.
You want your carrier and area.
When you get to your APN list,press the second button from the left on your phone,and select a "NEW" APN.
Enter the new configuration,save,and reboot.

Let us know if it works.

I'm on paranoid android (i.e. JB)
i can receive mms pictures by doing these things (I use stock aosp messaging app)
turn off wifi
turn on network data
ensure mms apn is correct
turn off auto retrieve in mms settings
when i receive an mms, i have to manually download the pic. not only the stock mms app won't download the pic automatically, if i turn on auto retrieve, i dont receive mms at all. however go sms can download pic automatically.

[Q] Correct MMS/Internet APN Settings?

I have some issues with my Skyrocket. It likes to take a long delay sometimes when trying to load anything with internet. Sometimes just 10-15 seconds, then loads perfectly. Other times, hours.
The only fix I have found with this is using the Tweakker app's APN settings for 4G(LTE). However, when I use this APN I can no longer receive MMS messages.
Can you guys tell me what APN settings I could use to be able to use my internet correctly AND get MMS?
Thanks for any help

search for AT&T PTA.
Turn on DATA in settings and it use data for a bit, reboot. and AT&T should force the PTA APN to your phone, it then becomes un-editable. Also, make sure you have the correct baseband radio; then the PTA apn will be pushed to you.
If you are still having issues recieving MMS. it's bcuz your MMS APK is AOSP. AOSP MMS won't let you receive pic msgs from non-android phones.
Again Please Search Before Posting New Thread!!!!!! I am sure you will find you answer!!!!!

[Q] MMS not working on OdysseyHybrid-v2.71-RC-Delay fix) 9|04|13

Hello, i can't post in the dev section so have to make my question in here.
The mms is not working on the OdysseyHybrid-v2.71-RC-Delay fix) rom.
They start the data connection, but it not concludes the sending nor the receiving.
In Viper 2.2.0, using GO SMS PRO, you can receive an mms and it will fetch if automatically, but in this rom that doesn't happen.
Other question is the delay fix.In my case, the delay still stands.
Can anyone confirm my two cases? and point me to some solution.
Usually what you describe is a result of bad mms APN configuration.
Try reconfiguration through your service provider's described settings.

I've done that. double checked and nothing. it starts to send with "H" than switches to "3G" and then stops and the MMS is not send.
The "stupid" thing is that, using the default sms app, the mms is sent.
And using the GO SMS PRO no.
I tried to remove the GO SMS PRO, and installed the new version from Play Store, but still the same problem.
You might have to go into GoSMS app and manually set the APN there too.
I don't use GoSMS anymore so nothing in front of me to show you the steps but just look around in settings.
OK try this
Open GoSMS and press the Menu key.
Select Settings>MMS settings>APN Configuration
Put a checkmark next to Fill APN Configuration Manually
Fill in the following:
(Should be same from your phone's APN settings for MMS)
MMSC:
MMS Proxy:
MMS Port:

thanks for the idea, but it didn't work
I think i'm going to switch to some other rom.
can you point me one that presents the same simple structure of the Odyssey and don't have the wake lag?
thanks again.
Thanks for the help.
Going to try other ROM.

[Q] MMS APN for T-Mobile USA after Black Update

After the black update, I lost the ability to send and receive MMS on my Unlocked Lumia 1020 on T-Mobile USA network. I've entered the fast.t-mobile.com APN settings on both Internet and MMS, I have 4G LTE internet working, but MMS still does not work.
Before there was a Nokia app that auto configured this for me. I can't seem to find this after the Black update, or it is baked into the system now, but for the life of me, I cannot get the MMS working with the APN settings I have. Tried both epc and fast.

I'll be going into my local T-Mobile store later today, hopefully I can get an answer from them.
I got mine working.
OK so with the access point app installed what I did was install a manual APN outside that settings app. I went to settings > cellular and pressed the add MMS APN.
Once I set it up I was able to send but not receive. Just use the APN settings available pretty much anywhere for T-Mobile. After that remove the settings all together and reboot.
I guess the APN app setting kicks in again and viola. Worked for me anyways. Hope it works for everyone else.

Proper/default APN MMS settings

Hey everyone
Seems like the classic story, but i've been struggling with MMS since day 1. I recently downloaded evolve sms, and they have a preset verizon APN setting that works, which i'm grateful for.
But i'm trying to understand what the hell these settings are supposed to be...why can't i send mms through any other app? when i ask evolve sms to fetch the APN settings automatically it says it can't, which i assume is what's going on in other apps. and when i go into APN setting i see a long list of a bunch of different options, and default none of those was even selected....
anyway. Does anyone know how this works? or how to set the APN settings to get MMS working through hangouts?

I had the same issue. You have make sure that APN type is left blank. This fixed the issue for me. I had to use APN backup then SQLite editor to remove "default" from APN type and restore the APN.
Hope this helps.
Adblock Plus also blocks MMS if you added that.

What does it mean by APN type. Just so you know there is an additional APN menu on Google Hangout(default messenger for me). I did not touch anything there, it's there by default. I have added ST APN and 4g LTE is working fine and also receiving regular text messages. Not sure what else I could check for. I am not using ADBlock plus also..
Thanks,

In the APN settings you should have an option for "APN type". Mine was always defaulting to "default,hipri" whenever I would try to set it up. If you can leave it blank without it defaulting back, you should be good. I had to make a backup of the APN then change the database and restore it to make it stick. I will try to post some images for you.
