MMS and Manilla 2.5

I have been searching for answers for the issue with MMS with manilla 2.5. Till this day MMS still does not work. It seems like this topic died out but yet there's no fix. My question is, why is it that it doesn't work? Does anyone out there know? MMS is such a common feature on phones now-a-days, shouldn't this work on updated technology like Manilla 2.5? I don't get it and I really do wish I knew some software programming because I would attempt to figure it out, but I don't. Is it a ROM issue? I just don't know. Could someone kindly explain a little why MMS has been an issue with CDMA. I'm sure there's other members wondering the same too. Thanks for reading my question.

You are right!
Sense I have had my tp2 i have been in search of the answer to that one thing MMS on my phone working! after 3 weeks 2 days and 23 hours I found the answer. People please just make it simple just make sure that in mms option in sms/mms matches the right connection in your phone connection. also mack sure that the connection is set to default.

What I did was...
1)Install MMS Fix (M2.5) (Verizon) (Valkyrie).cab
Do this right after soft-restting or close out messaging using task manager.
2)Set the MMS server to http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms?X-VZW-MDN=<your ten-digit phone number>
MMS server is located if you hit "All Messages" in Manila, then go to Menu -> Settings -> Options then go Menu -> MMS Server
The file can be found here http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.php?p=1424023&postcount=69 for some reason the uploader isn't working.

I have read a bunch of pages on that thread and can't seem to figure out what I am supposed to do. The first post seems like sprint settings. What do I do if I am on verizon? Or is there a specific post in that thread I should be looking for?

There is a fix for verizon. Search at PPCGeeks.com for it. Sprint users don't have a fix yet..... I think the problem is with HTC messaging in 2.5. I wonder why HTC doesn't come out with an update for this...they made it.

Throtteabuse, read what I said above. It works for Verizon phones, well atleast for mine running EnergyROM Leo Dec 31st. The file uploader is still failing though, the link to PPCGeeks should have the VZW file.

[REQ] Skype apk that can do calls over mobile network

I have the apk which used to work before over 3G, but it doesn't seem to work anymore.
Does anyone have a new version of it, or know why the old hacked skype.apk doesn't work anymore? Now it just keeps telling me that my sign in name doesn't exist

I also installed the hacked APK that you're referring to. I just checked it on my and it's still working like usual. Perhaps you set it to auto-update in the Market and it got overwritten by an unhacked install? That's what happened to me, and I had to uninstall and reinstall with the hacked APK.
I could have sworn that there was a thread somewhere in these N1 forums which was all about the hacked Skype 3G APK. If you've already run a search, please ignore. If not though, I'd suggest you take a crack at the search function whenever you're in doubt.
Anyhow, I believe this is the thread where I first downloaded the working Skype 3G APK: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/xeudoxus/78843-apks-unlocked-apps.html
At the very least, it's definitely the same dude-- I remember that username.
Good luck, and happy VOIPing

I'm confused. How come Skype won't work over 3G for you? It works perfectly fine for me, downloaded straight from the market. I've had hours of conversations on it.

Skype has a contract with Verizon in the States to only do 3G Skype with them. It's restricted to Wifi only on all other carriers.

Oh that must really suck. And here I thought the carriers in Canada sucked. At least I get Skype over 3G here. Canada only mostly sucks now.

I had the same problem today... I found out my problem was my new keyboard (Swiftkey) automatically added an additional space after my name. Following this correction, I placed a call over 3G without issue. Maybe that could be your issue too.

Hello,
I have installed the Hacked 3g version on my verizon galaxy tab and no matter what I do, my wife and I can not talk to each other, the connection seems laggy and our voices cut in and out. MY wife uses a mytouch on tmobile till we get the money to get her a verizon upgrade.
Has anyone experienced this problem?

[Q] Sprint Stock apps

Hi Hope sombody can help me with this issue, I'm running the csrom on my htc hero from sprint. the problem is i dont have the voicemail apk anymore and cant receive voicemails. does anyone know where i can get the removed srrint apks? Thanks much for any help. Dan...

[q] visual voicemail

I have a D1 from VERIZON and I am using MIUI ROM. LOVE IT !!!, but I want to use the visual voicemail that verizon offers. I cant seem to find the app they use. HELP PLEASE, I am paying for the service, but cant use it.

Samsung galaxy prevail
OK I JUST BOUGHT THE NEW BOOST PHONE, GALAXY PREVAIL, AND WHEN I GET A PIC OR TRY AND SEND ONE IT SAYS IT ISNT AVA OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, AND I WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE ELSE HAD THIS PROBLEM OR MIGHT KNOW HOW TO FIX IT??? PLZZ EMAIL ME AT [email protected]
IF U HAVE ANY ANSWERS!
THANKS!!

I had that problem on most ROMS I flashed but bc I have a google voice account started using that and works better for me than the providers visual vmail. I get the same effect and also read the voice mail. You might want to search for a file that adds the app back like I've done on many ROMS, dont have verizon, have Sprint so should be something out there for it.

Verizon Visual Voice Mail
Trying to get this app installed and having issues.
Have a rooted GS4.
Running a custom Rom.
Downloaded the Verizon Visual Voice Mail.apk into my SDcard, in the root, and tried to copy and past it, cut and past it using ES File Explorer into the System/App directory of the device, and keep getting permission denied.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance. And by the way, I can follow directions, but assume I am a noob. I was able to root and install custom rom 1st time, but I read, read, and read more....

[Q] How To Fix Sim Contacts Not Showing

Alright, I'm fairly new to MIUI, but not a newb when it comes to ROMs.
Ive already set up basically everything else that i would like on my phone (and I am MORE than satisfied with switching to MIUI. geez this ROM is lovely)
but noticed after a conglomerate of what seemed foreign numbers texting me - that none of my contacts from my sim were detected.
this was when i was still on 1.7.1. I am now on 1.7.8 and from what i understand - SIM Contact Importing should be possible.
MIUI still says there are no contacts on the SIM when i try to import them, and im 100% sure they are there. Popped my sim back into my old samsung and there they were.
Has anyone else had this issue or found a fix to this? Sorry if i didnt search thru the forums long enough to find this anwser.
Im on an HTC Inspire 4G.

Hi,
I have the same problem on my Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant. I'm currently running Onecosmic's ICS ROM RC1. Have you managed to find a solution for this problem?

Firstly, please use the respective Q&A threads for ROM related questions, it may seem dumb to you but it does help keep the forum clean and tidy. Imagine having a new thread for every question ever asked about each ROM.
Secondly, I know CM built ROMs have this problem and I remember somewhere that all AOSP ROMs have this issue with the ROM not reading the SIM card. You can either manually input them or just sync your contacts to Gmail.

Do a nandroid then load up a stock ROM go into contacts and save export them to your sd then reload your nandroid and import the file from sd and you should be good to go.

You are right. All AOSP roms and any rom built on CM coding has this issue.
Asking right about posting in proper thread and device forum.
