I've done a done of searching and I have no idea how I haven't found anyone with this issue. I can't get MMS to work on my N5. Textra just says unable to retrieve MMS and that I should check my APN settings but I can't find what settings should be in there. All my searching just comes up with MMS settings for some prepaid service.

MMS works on hangouts just fine. Try using that or check your apn settings.

Seriously? A Google search on "AT&T APN settings" gives you nothing?

I'm having the same issue with Textra. I'm not sure when it exactly started. I think when I updated Quantum ROM to 3.15, but maybe when I froze the stock messaging app. I froze messaging because I would get an alert for incoming message both from messaging and from Textra and even if I swiped the messaging alert away, it would just pop back. I've tried unfreezing messaging and that didn't help (but I'm not getting the extra alert, now). I've found the APN settings on another post in xda forums, but they weren't different from my own. I then when through all of Textra settings and found one for APN settings and it had different MMS APN settings than the phone (it was set to cingular instead of att). I've made them match now and am waiting see if I can receive MMS again. I'd be a little surprised if this fixes it, though, because Textra didn't have any trouble with MMS last month and I never went into the setting for it before.

If you're still having issues with this, I finally got Textra to work on AT&T by changing the size limit of mms to 1mb or below. I emailed Textra's devs and they told me that some carriers limit the size of mms. I guess Textra compresses mms automatically because I was able to send and receive photos just fine after I changed that setting. I was so frustrated with the APN settings, but it turned out to just be the size limit issue. How that helps.

is there a reason y my mms doesnt work? i can send only to myself but everyone that tries sending me pics doesnt come through.....
ARHD 1.1.8 with no sense 1.5.2.............how do i fix this?
Try installed GO SMS or Handcent to see if you can send/receive MMS through one of those. This will at least narrow the problem down to network settings or a problem with the Messaging app. Have you tried contacting the ROM developer to see if it's a known issue?

I'm on att and running ViperXL, and able to send and receive mms just fine. If its not the APN settings, and you are using the stock messaging app, I think the next thing to do is call AT&T and see if they can resolve.

I had a problem similar to this before, what I had to do to fix it was change the MMS message size I believe. It's set stock to 5000k and it wouldn't send at that. I had to downsize it back to 150k and it worked fine. They way to do that is go to the messaging app, go to the settings, go to MMS settings and I believe it is under there somewhere. Hope it helps!
Maximum message size on mine is set to 1000k, but it still compresses to about 200k per picture.
When I change the setting to a Max of 3500 it fails to send. When I change back to 1000k it goes through.
Hope that helps

Does data with out WiFi work? Its imperative that you check that since MMS travels through data. Also does newt support t mobile? I remember I had to choose a carrier
Sent from my Carbon-ize Evita using xda-developers app
Yes it excepts tmobile and yes data works ive even turned off wifi to make sure and data works fine,this has me stumped ive tried every apn setting and still nothing thats why i was inquiring about what controls the mms file wise or if there is something in the build.prop that isnt right,it lets me choose either at&t or tmobile,keeps saying the dreaded "Generic network failure"
You may need to set to default apn. Google play has apps and downloads for it. Might not hurt to give it a try.

. Maybe try go sms app on market for kicks to see if its software related or something screwy . I had to actually call att once due to in there system mms pics was disabled on phn. Also see if you can recieve from other carriers and your carrier. You may just wanna ask for t2 support as t1 support just read from computer screen. Good luck let us know if we can assist you

Ok so after days of looking into this issue i used go sms pro and manual put settings into the apn setting of go sms and low and behold it works,so now ill just use go sms works fine,thanks for the assistance from everyone.I was going crazy even though i dont use mms feature often!!!
*Note
I am on sprint
So I got nexus 5 yesterday, and cant seem to properly send or receive MMS.
I tried with and without WIFI, and to no avail.
I tried with and without google voice, 3rd party messaging app such as (go sms)
Is there solution to this? I just recently came back to android and im quite confused.
The mms won't get sent regardless of network im on.
I'm having the same problem. I can send them but I am not receiving any.

Did you come from iPhones?
---------- Post added at 01:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:18 PM ----------
I had the same problem coming from my iPhone 5. Its because your number is tied to iMessage. So if you still have your iPhone, go to settings, messages, turn off iMessage. And you should be good.
Actually no, i had my samsung galaxy s2 bricked and had no phone for few month. So my number is not associated with iphone stuff at all :/
Does your APN have the correct MMS settings for your carrier?

I tried using the 'smart' settings in MMS setting as well as selecting Iowa Wireless directly and neither worked.
Having the same issue on iWireless. Had customer service screw with my n5 for about an hour last night and they got sending mms working receiving not so much. I have since screwed with it, and sending no longer works.
Anyone else have any luck?

Do you have a nexus 4 around? Try deleting all the APNs you currently have, and creating new ones to match the values that get set on the Nexus 4. I haven't been able to test my MMS so maybe PM me and we can test it out and then post our settings to this thread.

Update:
I added the PIAPicture Messaging APN to match what the Nexus 4 had when it did its "Reset to Default" in the APN settings. I don't understand why the APN 'default' settings over the air would be different between the Jelly Bean Nexus 4 and the KitKat Nexus 5.
Also, Now that the Nexus 4 got the KitKat upgrade, it defaults to the same settings that my Nexus 5 had; and it couldn't send/receive MMS.
I redid the settings in the Nexus 4 to match what I put on my Nexus 5 and it sends/receives MMS fine with the Messaging app (not the Hangouts app)
In summary, there appears to be some issue with the Hangouts app receiving MMS even after changing the APN settings to be correct. I was able to receive 1 MMS, then the rest come in as,
"Touch to download MMS message. Size:115KB. Expires 11/25, 1:23PM."
(the size changes depending on the size of the MMS however, which means it is 'sorta' seeing the MMS)
Whenever I touch the message, it looks like it is starting the download but times out.
I am now a Cricket customer! I am getting H+ data. I am trying to send MMS messages using Textra (won't work) and the Stock Messaging app (ditto) . At this point I will use whichever of the two I can get working. Is anyone out there on Cricket who can explain / help who has personally dealt with this? I changed the APN settings on the X2 to be exactly the ones on the Cricket website (the Cricket store had misspelled some of it!) I also went into Textra Legacy and changed the APN manually (Textra had my old TMobile information - it didn't change automatically for some reason). I am trying to send the MMS (group texts and / or pictures) while off WiFi. I can send single (no picture) SMS and receive responses but I am a texter who sends mainly group messages and pictures!

In settings---->more---->Mobile Network, under Access Point Names under MMS tap that and look at the mmsc. Write that down. In Textra go into Settings, and at the bottom go into MMS, then MMS Advanced. Go to Manually Configure APN and put in what you wrote down in the MMSC.. Hit ok, then try it and see if it starts working.

Whaaat? You did? I know that you are gonna be shocked at how easy it is to set up right out of the box! I was hoping to find that elusive X2 702L owning Cricket customer out there who has figured out how to successfully send and receive MMS messages! I guess I am a unicorn! Lol! I am headed back to the Cricket store today... I don't know what they can do for me... I called them yesterday and asked if MMS trouble was an issue at Cricket right now (with my luck I would be beating my head against a wall for hours only to find that it is a known Cricket issue). They said not that they know of and told me to bring the phone back in... I don't think that there's much knowledgeable or experienced help there so I am not thrilled... If I find an answer I will definitely post it for anyone else out there having trouble...

I forgot to ask you... Is the Stock messaging app supposed to work at all? If I have all the Contacts formatted to +1 (757) 555-5555 is it supposed to work? I never got the "invalid recipient" message and have never had trouble sending or receiving actual phone calls... When I send a group message on the Stock app it does send it but it divides it up into separate messages. If I send to 3 people it shows it as one message on my screen but shows Sent 1, Sent 2 and Sent 3. The responses come up on 3 different screens. It's too confusing to follow... And when I send a picture it doesn't send at all. Should I tell Cricket that the Stock app never works for USA X2 users? Or does it? And when you have trouble with Textra they always tell you to test the problem on the Stock app so if it works on the Stock app it can be inferred that it is a Textra problem... But if you can never get the Stock app to work how can you do that???

Thanks, WPENN! I just got back from the Cricket store where 4 of us spent 2 hours on this and never got it working. I am afraid to jinx it but I actually found a website Gishan.net when I Googled I think Huawei Mediapad X2 MMS. This website had APNs for all the different carriers. I went to my device APN page and set everything back to default. Then I just plugged in the information they had for Cricket. Then I saved it and restarted. Textra is now working (I had installed 4 different SMS apps - including Hangouts - and none had worked. I bet they all do now... But I just needed one and Textra is my go-to...) I am doing the happy dance!!!

Well, again I spoke too soon. I am sooo anxious for this to work that I jump with excitement the first day and then... [emoji26] [emoji26] [emoji26] [emoji24] [emoji24] [emoji24] I just don't get it! I found out that I didn't get a bunch of texts from people at Thanksgiving. That's why I changed the APN settings to the AT&T ones you provided. By then I wasn't in a group of phones. Only one other phone available to use to help me test mine. I have to admit, I think all the successful testing of the new AT&T settings was on a single person text basis. The word texts and the picture texts worked great and I thought I was so lucky! But then on Black Friday I was at the mall and was informed by phone calls that I didn't get some texts. Words. Both single and group texts. So that night I tried Hangouts. It was too hard for my recipients to deal with as they helped me with my testing and it seems like the group Hangouts still didn't work correctly. So yesterday I missed a bunch of texts... And last night missed about 15 pictures that were texted amongst the group. It seems like the recipients have no problem getting my word and picture texts. I just cannot receive theirs. So now I have tried 3 different sets of APNs on the Stock Messaging app and Textra and now even Hangouts... I just don't know what to do!!! A LOT of my interaction with this phone is texting and picture texting!!! If I could only find the xda unicorn - the person who is a Cricket customer who also exclusively uses Textra AND does not have a rooted 702L!!! Lololol!!!

I got a new sim card from Cricket yesterday and I am doing a Factory Reset today... I don't mind... I am going to start fresh and I am going to use the AT&T APN settings that the other poster who is a Cricket customer provided...

I got everything finished yesterday and soon after I got a phone call from a friend. He asked if I had gotten the 2 pictures he texted me... I didn't but I thought it was while I was down. He said he had just re-sent them. I had finished setting everything up and the first thing I find out is that I am still not getting pictures. So I asked him to re-send them. Still nothing... We were able to word text back and forth... So then I asked him to wait a minute and re-text the pictures and I immediately got off WiFi. I got the pictures immediately!!! So I went into Textra and went to the TMobile fix setting and turned it on. It is supposed to instantly turn off WiFi to allow you to get a MMS text (group and/or pictures). I did find out that TMobile doesn't allow MMS over WiFi so I figure Cricket is probably the same... I am Googling it today... So I guess if that setting works for TMobile it will do the same for Cricket. OR I can never get on WiFi again - I cannot predict when I am going to get a MMS text...

I don't think that will work since the X2 doesn't have wifi calling so that setting is pretty useless. On a side note, in settings under More---Mobile Network I have data roaming turned on and receive MMS messages while roaming turned on as well as the WLAN/Mobile Data switch set to always use Mobile Data if WLAN is unavailable. Make sure both of those are turned on.

Cat 6 isn't used here so you don't have to worry about that.
