If you are like me and don't have a good amount of data on your provider than you probably keep your data off for the most part. Unfortunately when someone send you an MMS message you have to turn on data to get it, and half the time you don't know when you recieved an MMS when you have data turned off. With this simply line of code you can now send an MMS with data turned off and it will automatically turn data on when sending and turn it off when it is finished. This also works with recieving MMS. When your messaging app determines someone has sent an MMS message it will turn on data and then turn it off when it is finished downloading.
Requirements:
Must be rooted
File editing application
Go into system/csc/ and look for Feature.xml
Scroll to the bottom and add this line exactly:
<CscFeature_RIL_ForceConnectMMS>true</CscFeature_RIL_ForceConnectMMS>
After this save your .xml and make sure permissions are set to rw--r--r--.
Reboot.
To test this simply send a group message or picture with your data off and if it sends it worked.
Thanks! Enjoy!

While that may be true, there are a lot of other SMS clients that people use that do not have that feature.
On wicked v5 tmobile network... doesnt work

I'm not sure if you can help but I have looked for this file and my phone doesn't seem to have the CSC folder. I've got an HTC Aria running a liberty CM9 rom from this thread. Before the root my phone would automatically pull MMS with data off and now I must turn on data to get messages.

I hope I'm posting this in the correct forum.
I have GO SMS PRO and sent a MMS that I would have expected a reply to but didn't get one. When I look at the message (which details says was sent) there's a little flashing green arrow by it. I can't find what that means in the Help. I was on wifi when I sent it and wonder if that's a problem? I've been on 4G since then.
I have a DROID RAZR and am on Verizon if that matters. Thanks.
Usually GO SMS isn't good with sending MMS over wifi. That flashing arrow means its "trying" to send. Just go back on 3G/4G and send it again. It should work.

Thank you. That helps. I don't know why it can't send over wifi but knowing that's the problem I can easily switch back when sending MMS.
Thanks again.
No problem!!!!

How to use wifi setting?
How do I send messages via wifi opposed to using my 2G/4G phone service? I can't figure out how to change the settings!

It doesn't look like you can send multimedia or MMS messages using wifi. If you want to send pictures or other multimedia you will need to be on your "G" service. For text, or SMS, you can use either wifi or your "G".
If you want to toggle wifi and data on and off, you will want to use a widget. There are a number of them at the Market, such as Data Enabler and Wifi Toggle.
You may already have some on your phone. Long press on your home screen, choose Widget, and see if you have a toggle that will work.
Depending on the phone, GoSMS will have problems sending MMS through wifi. For awhile the HTC Evo wouldn't send MMS via wifi. I went back to GoSMS after they fixed that little issue. Email the developers of GoSMS.
So if I get a widget and turn wifi on, I will be able to send texts on Go SMS via wifi instead of my actual phone service plan?

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.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
. 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!!!
Not my finding i just copy pasted here is the original THREAD

Hi, I was having issues sending and receiving messages with Hangouts too.
Hopefully, today Google released an update that corrected my issue.
I recommend you to first, uninstall Hangouts, go to Play Store and download and install the new version. It worked well for me.
See the attachment.
Also, check your apn settings, (Settings/More/Mobile networks/ Access point Names) Press menu, reset to default.
I have 4G data but for some reason I can't send any MMS messages. I'm located in the US and on AT&T. Does anyone have any ideas why I can't send any MMS messages? Does anybody have the correct APN or is the one supplied correct? I'm on l29c636b180.

Got it to work by resetting apn.

I'm having the same problem...what steps did you take? I deleted & re-entered APN but didn't seem to work. I also reset to default then reselected & still no luck. I'm also on AT&T. Did you use anything different than what's already there?

All I did was reset default in the apn section and it worked.

Not sure if you're using the stock messaging App, try using messenger or any different messaging App. In my case, I never had to enter APN, it is automatically detected. I am with Bell Mobility though.

I never use the stock sms app. I use a third party one (evolve sms) Regardless of what third party app you use in the MMS settings make sure you check system controlled mms. With me the APN's show up automatically as well. I'm on Koodo-don't judge-lol
Spoke too soon... Can't send again.
Okay, I was using Hangouts before and couldn't send MMS through my carrier #. Hangouts and Google voice work fine with hangouts app. If I use the stock messaging app MMS with my carrier # it works fine. What gives? For some odd reason Hangout app works when I first do a system reset then it reverts back to not working.
Looks like it's definitly a Hangouts problem. I've done a search and it looks like it has happened a lot with hangouts.

Got it to work... I turned off WiFi, tried to send a MMS(failed) then rebooted and it worked. I turned WiFi back on and it still worked.

Well apparently it's not working again...it'll let me respond to messages already sent but when I add someone new, stl says 'Invalid Recipient'. I now have to use Hangouts to initiate a new message, I don't like Hangouts so this sucks.

These kind of problems occur with me with all third-party messaging apps (GO SMS, Chomp. Mood, Zero, etc)
I believe it is a problem related with android 6.0 because on Mate 7 or P8, reunning Lollipop all wor well
I also have an issue sending SMS or text messages. I'm using two SIM cards and this has always worked perfectly with the stock ROM. Using KingVIP ROM I can't send SMS's from SIM 1 at all. It works from SIM 2. Also some apps may send from SIM 2, but the stock message app won't send at all. I only just noticed this after a few days that I can't send via both SIMs. I've tried resetting the APN settings, tried different SMS apps, but nothing seems to work, does anyone have any ideas? I've changed all the permissions.
I'm not sure what came of this,but i solve my issue sending text by putting +1 in front of contacts numbers.
