Help! Can't receive pictures from iPhone - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all,
On the stock messaging app I can't receive any pictures from iPhone 5 users. They show up as a slideshow but I can't view them. I get pictures from iPhone 4s.
What I have noticed:
-Pictures from iPhone WORK if I use Hangouts as my default SMS. It's only with the stock messaging app...
Can anyone help? I have MMS and mobile data on. I'm with AT&T. I attached a picture as well. Thanks in advance

EDIT: Fixed it by resetting my APN settings....

[Q] Eaglesblood 2.3.7 (2.4) mms problem

Hi all,
I installed the Eaglesblood ROM 2.4 a few days ago. I noticed I'm not able to send picture messaging. Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a fix? I already wiped it twice.
Much appreciated!

MMS works fine for me on stock SMS app. Try using GO SMS Pro, that should fix it.

Hey thanks!
I'm downloading it right now. Do you recommend I remove or freeze the stock sms app? In the stock sms, I can text message but I can't send pictures.

Nah, just leave the stock SMS app there. Just disable the notification alert so that you won't get two different notification texts.
You'll love Go SMS. So much more customization's and over all looks a lot better. And there's some wonderful themes for it. This is my favorite theme for Go SMS.

Thanks again! I actually clicked the "thanks" button!
p.s. I had to take out the link in your reply because the administrator won't let me reply with it.

What's the default sms notification in MIUI?

I had the NS4G few months back and I recall leaving it's default sms notification alone because I really liked it. Does anyone know where to find it or have it handy?
i think that really is the default sms notification of miui..but other sms apps such as GO SMS & handcent also have it...the new Contacts app by contapps also got it..

Thanks for helping, but I actually found an archive of older builds, remembered which build it was (1.7.22) and found the ringtones/notifications inside the /media folder. All is good.
P.S. Here's the notification for anyone interested.

[APP] Google Hangouts Icon

My google hangouts icon still uses the gTalk icon. I've tried uninstalling the app and then reinstalling it through play, but it still comes back with the Talk icon. I've also deleted cache and data for the app.

Are you using an icon pack?

No. My nova Icon theme is set to default. But that got me thinking: I tried installing another launcher and it has the correct hangouts icon. So I uninstalled nova and reinstalled it, and it is working again. Not sure what the issue was there.
hangout sux....video call doesnt work on mine...if i uninstall updates i have no video camera to make a video call.
I just wanna chime in on the Hangouts bashing.... I can't believe how much they ruined this app.. I mean, instant messaging is pretty simple right? Why change it? Now sometimes I won't get an IM for 45 minutes, I can't see who's online, it FC's all the time... Crap crap crap. I restored my old TiBu backup of the original talk. If anyone else want's it let me know..

If your notifications are coming that late and you were getting a lot of FCs, I'm thinking it is a problem with your setup. I have had neither of those issues from the moment it updated and haven't really heard it from other people either. As far as online status, I'm a little split. I liked having it, but on the other hand, we don't have an online status for text messages either and we don't get riled up about that, so I am adjusting to just sending a message when I have one to send. If it is urgent and they don't reply I'll contact them a different way. I see no reason to roll back to talk.
no dice on this?
i want to find out the same
i think it may be something to do with us running custom roms

Same issue here on stock nexus 4, i uninstalled it with titanium but no change. Also it doesn't work, i tried to send an im from my girlfriends phone but i didnt received anything.
Using Nova, menu/nova settings/look and feel/icon theme/ choose default. That worked for me to change hangout icon.

My problem was from nova launcher, i had Talk icon in nova, but hangouts in trebuchet. Solution: reinstall nova and do a set everything manual, don't use backup or you will end up again with the talk icon.
Just long press the icon - edit - click the app icon, then choose another icon on Nova Launcher. Easy once you've done it once and know the trick.

It's not a problem with my setup. Talk works flawlessly.
The things is this isn't text messaging though. This is instant messenger. A completely different format. It's nice to be able to see who's online to talk and not otherwise engaged. You don't get that in text messaging.

But they actually meant this to be like talk and messages combined. They should be incorporating SMS into it soon.

The biggest issue I have, and maybe I'm just over looking it, but I can't change my status. I liked being able to be invisible like a ninja or busy if I didn't want to be bothered and so on. Running Goodness 10.0.3 if that means anything.
Optional Icon Solution
If anyone is looking to change the icon and happens to own tasker, it is a very easy fix. Just create a task to open hangouts and pick any icon you want. Then create an icon that simply runs the task. If you own the app, it should be pretty easy to figure out.

Yes
Did you delete it? Can you elaborate on your situation? Maybe you don't need to reinstall it... is what I'm getting at...

Can't attach images to default messaging app

Just got a Mate 9 regular on the weekend, tried to attach an image and there is no option to do so. I have tried both via the app and by sharing the photo. There just simply isn't an option to attach the image. I have searched every setting and as many websites as I can. Anyone have any ideas? Ty in advance.
Why you are not seeing the attachment icon next to where you write the text?
Yes correct.

It's fine here.
Maybe you are using a customized theme?
How do you check about custom themes?

Can't put a link to photos in.
Maybe you need to setup APN settings for mms to work?
I don't use the stock messaging app, so can't really help there, but as far as using the "share" option, perhaps it's related to this bug. Some of us can't attach an image directly from the gallery to 3rd party text apps from the share option UNLESS more than one photo is selected.
it is working fine on my end with stock messaging app and tmobile sim card
