Handcent MMS issue - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

For some reason I haven't been able to send picture messages (works 1 out of 10 times, maybe) using handcent since the most recent update. I believe the issue has been since right around the jb ota. Everything is stock on my device. Anyone else having the same issue? Any fixes?

what if you turn off wifi & use 3g/4g?
works for me (same thing with receiving mms)/

Actually I generally do not have WiFi on so that may not be the case. May have to uninstall and reinstall and see if that helps.

Group messaging

I can not respond to group text messages. This is pretty annoying when everyone else seems to be able to. I am using the stock sms client, is this the case, or am I missing something?
If there is nothing else I can do short of downloading a new app, anyone have any recommendations?

just updated to stock ics, rooted and removed the bloat.
But I experienced the same problem with dk and the jedi mind trick rom. Have always had this problem even before flashing roms.

Trouble sending/receiving MMS

Has anyone else had trouble sending or receiving pic messages or anything else attachable to texts. When I get a message it'll have a download button but will never download. Regular texts work fine though. Solutions?

Also I have noticed that if I am on wifi, it's not an issue. But if I am on 3g (no lte here yet) the mms will not download at all.

That's because of the nature of the issue, i.e. the settings in the phone are borked when trying to route through Sprint's network. Read the thread linked above and the reason should evident for you
I did do that method, fixed the domain name, and still have the issue if I am not on wifi.

Same for me, I called Sprint and got my code, changed the profile name and had the guy refresh the profile. I started my phone up again and it still doesnt work over the 3G. Im going to try one of the other SMS apps and see if it works then. Ill let you know how it goes.
I got the Handcent sms app from the app store and I can now receive picture messages. It does work, its a nice way to work around the Photon Q's problem.

MMS Issue, Can't send picture messages

For the life of me, I cannot figure out why I can't send picture MMS messages on this ROM (I'm using Bruce's 4.1.2 Kang JB ROM, 11/23 BUILD). I've checked all of the APN settings for T-mobile US, and everything looks fine but I can't send a picture. Can someone please give me some guidance? I have searched, and can't fix this issue. Any suggestions?
I can receive picture MMS. When I try to send it just sits there and says "sending" but does not send. I have no issues sending regular MMS.
Thanks!

Hi,
I find with JB ROMS that I always have to make a separate APN for my MMS.
So,I delete all the APN's in the list,and just keep the 2 I need.
One for data,and one for MMS.
I'm not sure there is a way to enable two APN's in this ROM. I can certainly add an APN, but it appears I can only choose one to be active. Maybe I don't understand how it works, but I'd like to figure it out.

Hi,
That is how you do it.
Have 2 APN's with the main data one selected.
Thanks! I'll try that approach.

So, I created an APN specifically for MMS, but its still not working. I still can't send MMS. Today, I even updated to the newest version of Bruce's ROM. Any other suggestions?

Does anyone have any ideas? I still can't solve this mystery, and could really use some help.
Thanks!

The ROM isn't broken, so the problem must be on your end. Rather than figuring out what has gotten screwy in your set up, it might be easier just to do a full wipe and fresh install. It should only take 15 minutes. And if something has just gotten screwed up in your install ( which can happen) a full wipe and fresh install should cure it.
I can't imaging its a hardware issue if everything else works.

Maybe you need to add a proxy for the APN settings. Over in the UK the carrier 02 has 2 different types of APN settings, one with and one without the proxy. You can try add/remove it and see how you get on. And for the record I use only one APN and get data +MMS

No luck

Well, I tried a full wipe and fresh install. Still having the same issue. I did the whole factory reset and wiped everything. I'm not sure what to do now. Any ideas?

I finally resolved this issue. I downloaded the GoSMS app and manually input the APN settings. Once I did that, I was able to send picture MMS.

Did it happen suddenly? What messaging app are you using? What rom? Did you install any mods recently?

Same issue.... I posted in the pacman rom section. I was in the middle of a convo when texts started to slow down, now not getting any at all, can't send, nothing. Tried setting my limit to 500, unfroze stock app (does it with it also), I'm just lost.
Gosms pro
PACman 11/2
Kt747 kernel 10/28 (I think that's the lastest, if not I am on the latest unless one was released since this morning)
If you need more info or have an idea, quote me or @ me. Thanks!
~~~EDIT~~~
I just checked, I receive texts fine, sending is another story.

Messaging is usually tied into framework, reflashing the rom would most likely solve the problem but might not make it work properly. Using a touchwiz messaging app would probably fix it because it uses a stock framework for the app, but I'm assuming you want to stay on AOSP.
I would post that question in the pacman thread and see if anyone running that rom has any better suggestions.

If you're having call issues too that's different, could be bad efs data, but I'm not really an AOSP guy so it's hard for me to pinpoint exactly what's going on. Could be rom related or not, so it's better to scour those forums to see if you can find an answer.

Yeah I was having the exact same problem. After time and a restart seemed to fix.

MMS on official LP

so looks like VZW has left out or over looked (not like they didnt take their time on this update) to include the required MmsService.apk
Without this some, if not a lot of third party SMS apps will not send MMS, Google's hangout and Google's messenger app for example.
By installing this, flash it, extract it, or just install the APK. (if you dont have root this is the only way) This WILL fix the issue

How did u install it, are you on vzw, and try just installing it normally like any other app.
That's how I did it and sends and receives without issue

This is almost PSA worthy....
I bet VZW issues a small OTA to fix this...
I am using it on Tmo - Installed it as an APK and tried sending MMS with Hangouts, native HTC app and Textra all with no success

I hope they also provide a hot fix for SMS notification preview. Drives me nuts that I have to open messaging app to see who texted :-/

Previews do not work for the stock HTC app. No notification card or even a preview in the status bar like on KK with HTC one.

Believe me...I do too, however with the stock sms app if a group message come in, clicking the notification take you to the individual sms thread for the person that sent the text, not the group chat, which in of itself was enough to drive me crazy.

From my understanding LP on vzw took away the ability to edit the apns which I would imagine you had to change to get all the tmo stuff working.

Oddly enough I had to set up nothing on 4.4.4, it just worked once I have it on HSPA mode instead of LTE/CDMA
I'm stock and rooted while my wife's is stock. We both upgraded to Lollipop and was/is using Textra before the upgrade and continue to use it without an issue. I've sent and received MMS without hiccups.
Are we odd ones out or is there some bug that I'm not experiencing and could possibly find a fix on my phone to share with everyone?
