Can't download MMS on Nexus 5 when sent from an iPhone. - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone else having this issue?
When any Android phone sends an MMS, I can download it just fine, but when the MMS is sent from an iPhone to my Nexus 5, I can't download it in the Hangouts app.
I am running the latest (2.0.2.16 I think it is) Hangouts app as well as on KitKat 4.4.2.

Hangouts problem. Not receiving messages.

I have a problem with Hangouts app. I just don't receive messages on my phone. When I text to a person he receives my message, but it doesn't work the other way around, when he texts me back nothing happens on my phone. And I do receive messages on my computer with Chrome Hangouts extention, problem exists only on my phone. Anyone experiencing similar problems?
I am having this problem too. Very annoying.
I have the exact issue on a Galaxy S (captivate). Makes the app utterly unusable. Running CyanogenMod 10.1. Hope this gets resolved :<
Same issue on my ATT HTC One using custom rom
Having same problem OK a gsm galaxy nexus...
Same here. In my case, I receive the message if I enter the app. This is not usable! I sent yesterday night a hangout to my brother asking why is he not using hangout with me, and today morning I have seen in desktop chrome hangout that he answered: "because you are not answering"

Uninstall and reinstall fixed it fixed it for me. This was always an issue with Google plus too. These apps don't like being restored from backup
Did you disabled Google Play Services from sending data on the background? I had the same problem, changed that and Hangouts is working again.
Very annoying that Hangout and Google Play Services are using the same configuration.
Hangouts never worked for me... I dont receive messages or calls. I dont know why I have installed it

I installed on both my Samsung Galaxy nexus and nexus 7 but the SMS messages are not showing up on my tablet

Few bugs to mention:
1- had a force close 2 minutes into the apps. Cleared data and force stop and it seems to be fine
2- tried video calling my friend and for some reason it didn't connect and I wasn't able to exit video calling.
Other than that it works fine
Btw have it installed on my Galaxy Note 3

Anyone else notice it turns on mobile data when you are on wifi? So then you have both radios on, you have to restart phone to turn off mobile data but it comes back spoon as you get a message...dumb

Force close and doesn't open after I tried to send an mms on my note 3

Seems like a pre release imo, can't send mms, turns on 3g/4g when on wifi and won't turn it off, slow loading, FC for some, emoji don't work?
This was extracted from the factory image of the Nexus 5. I haven't had a single FC, on PA 4.3. I haven't tried MMS yet.
wow verry good , iuse on my one V
Same here, crash at launch since I tried to send a MMS from my GNote3
works great, the group mms regular mms and also text, this is amazing!
Texts do not seem to sync to tablets.
SMS not working
sent from my Elife
Working perfect on VZW GS3, Beans Build 19, 4.1.2
Working:
SMS
MMS send & receive
Emoji's
No FC
No Lag
3g/4g turns on for MMS with wifi, but turns off after sent
Have not tested video calling yet.
Seems like it is hit of miss for different phones/roms
Anyone notice that video calls fc hangouts? Both on my Nexus 4 and 7 both rooted but stock 4.3
anyone want to point me in the right direction?
Thanks
SMS works for anyone outside USA ?

Yes, it's working fine for me (in Holland). Didn't encounter any problems this far. Only thing is that Handcent still handles incoming SMS-notification but think this is due to my settings.

Group MMS not working (AT&T)?

Hi everyone,
I'm having an issue with MMS group messaging on my Nexus 5 using google hangouts. When i send a attempt to send a group MMS (text only), my phone simply sends individual SMS messages to each of the recipients. Similarly, if someone includes me in a group message, I receive it as an SMS coming only from the sender (can't see the other recipients).
This used to work flawlessly for me until about a month ago, and then it suddenly stopped working and i cannot figure out the cause.
Some other info that might be useful: I'm on AT&T, running CM11 nightlies, and am using the version of hangouts released yesterday (though it did not work on the previous version either). I have tried both the AT&T LTE (default) and AT&T Phone APNs and neither seem to work. I also tried using the stock MMS.apk and had the same results when trying to send group messages.
Any info on this issue would be very helpful, thanks!
Just wanted to add that a friend of mine who is also running hangouts on CM11 (although on verizon) has a check box for enabling group messaging in the hangouts SMS settings, and this option is absent from my phone

Just curious, did you try deleting hangouts and re-downloading the new apk? Maybe something got corrupted when flashing a CM11 update? Or possibly the gapps from that flash?

[Q] Google Hangouts Group MMS - Sprint

Anyone else having trouble with google hangouts and group MMS? There used to be a setting where I could enable/disable but one day it was turned off somehow and defaults to SMS without any way to change it.
The setting appears fine in the Cyanogen Messaging app and MMS working fine otherwise, just doesn't seem to be working in hangouts.

Also having the exact same issue. From what other people have said it might be an issue with the SIM?

Thanks, but I already tried that. My phone number is displayed correctly in Settings and when I download that APP my number is already correct in there as well.
Anyone have any updates on this? Also what roms is everyone using? I am seeing the issue consistently on Cyanogenmod but haven't tested a Stock Rom yet because of how long it takes.
I am sure the issue has to do with no one knowing what to do with a Sprint SIM card, since they didn't really exist before.
Does anyone have this working w/ stock 4.4.4 and Hangouts?

MMS problem on Hangouts

Hey up . Whenever I get sent a MMS on hangouts on my nexus 5 it takes an age to download or doesnt at all. I get a message saying: NEW MMS MEssage to Download : Size is 131 kb expires on 12/11/20:07 etc. Sometimes it seems to stop any SMS going through while the MMS is downloading. Anyone else have this problem/and a fix?
I have this same issue. When I use ChompSMS it will display MMS just fine but in Hangouts, it gives that message and I try to download it and it will say "downloading" but never actually download. Sometimes it will give me a download error after a long time. This happened after the Voice integration. Happened to me when I was on 4.4, L developer preview, and now on the official 5.0 release. I was hoping it would be fixed once the official 5.0 was released but it still isn't. Please help! I want to use Hangouts because I can call the person straight from Hangouts, where in ChompSMS I can't do that.
