I use Hangouts and now and then my MMS gets backed up. I recieve late messages in group chat and the MMS sometimes doesnt even go through.
I looked at the APN settings and there are 4 different choices.
fast.metropcs.com
epc.tmobile.com
fast.t-mobile.com
fast.t-mobile.com
I can always add more. Does anyone know of a good apn that works?!

on t-mobile it's fast.t-mobile.com
the metropcs one is obviously for metropcs.
epc is an older apn, which may work but I don't think is optimized for LTE
For MMS your problem is likely not the APN
but the MMSC, MMSC proxy and port settings
or it could just be poor reception when your sending the MMS
With this, is it better to use the ipv6 or the ipv4?

Sadly enough i get better LTE and MMS performance with the MetroPCS APN and it works better than the Tmo APNs

I've wondered about which one I should use for a while now. To be honest, I haven't noticed much of a difference between the T-mobile APN's available. Or all of them for that matter... What does everyone think is best, or use the most?
NEXUS 5
I use the MetroPCS one the most sometimes MMS doesn't work on the tmo ones

Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I have been having problems with my mms since I first received my Nexus. MMS take 3 days to send and downloading mms gets stuck at downloading and never opens. I did some research and from what I understand it has something to do with your APN settings, try searching for the correct APN settings for your area and provider. APN settings can be found in ---> SETTINGS>WIRELESS&NETWORKS>MOBILE NETWORKS>
ACCESS POINT NAMES
** I have yet to fix my MMS issues, if you find something I would love to know

Yea, I don't know if re-flashing the ROM would be of any use. Some people argue that MMS only work if you have a data plan with your provider, but I've read otherwise as well. I've also heard of Nexus users getting more up-to-date sim cards and that fixed their issues, maybe worth a try? You might want to give your provider a call and ask them for the correct APN settings or at least explain your problem to them and see if they offer any assistance.
Hello everyone,
First of all, I have a sidekick 4G that I unlocked through a unlock code website. And the sidekick is running on AT&T with Edge and talk (receive and send) working flawlessly.
The only problem I have is that I can receive text messages, but cannot send any.
So I went ahead and called Samsung and they suggested that the problem was my messaging center number, so I followed their directions and did this ,MESSAGING->MENU BUTTON->SETTINGS and scrolled down to messaging center only to find it greyed out.
I have the latest update and did a factory reset and what not.
My question is how do I set the messaging center number from the one Tmobile set to AT&T 's messaging center number?
Please help! I don't want to have a unlocked phone that cannot send text messages!
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA App
Call AT&T and ask. Or ask a friend that has an Android. The number should be the same. If you can't get it to work then you can always download an app that gives you a number for texting, i.e. Google Voice, textfree, etc.
Look in the settings of your previously used phone you had for AT&T. The number should be there. If not, ask a friend. If not, then you can call AT&T. I believe numbers differ according to region, based on a quick Google search.
I have the number, its just that the field where I enter the number is greyed out, meaning I can't configure it. Are all sidekicks like that?

Go to settings wireless n networks mobile networks Then access point names then click on tmobiles apn and edit it or add ur own apn the best is to copy it from another android on att u can just go to the store and copy it from there floor modles the line for the texting is the mmsc line

Is your data on when you try to download. Usually pics and videos are mms messages which must use data even if your on wifi.

Dude when you get to "Access Point Names" click it. There you should see three APNs
1 ATT
2 MediaNet
3 MediaNet mms
If there is no # 3 then just hit menu and new APN and create one
Tap on # 3 and it should look like this
Name: MediaNet mms
APN: wap.cingular.com
Proxy: blank
Port: 80
Username: [email protected]
Password: CINGULAR1

MMSC: http: //mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: wireless.cingular.com

MICC 310
MNC 410

Maybe cwhitney24 or zelendel will come along and make corrections.

Do you have your data turned on? To download a picture message it takes alittle bit of data to do so, but att doesn't charge for it.
.
I do have data turned on and wifi off, I was able to download MMS before flashing the Rom, I tried a fresh install also but no luck.

It might be an issue with the ROM itself...I cant remember if diesel how MMS works in diesel edition...check out the ROM thread and see if any others have the same issue. Or try finding a different APN settings, other than the ones you mentioned above.
According to "Whats Working" in the Diesel Rom thread SMS/MMS is working, I've tried just about every APN setting I can find and when I search the thread no one has an answer btw I don't have the "MMS protocal:" field in my APN settings, I don't know if this is an issue.

I just finished installing the new update to the rom "It's Been A Pleasure" and it seemed to fix the problem for me. Thanks for all your responses. I truly appreciate it.
Recently moved from CM10 to 10.1, and flashed the 3.18 ATT radios. Everything works except receiving MMS. I've flashed back to the 2.20 radios, and double checked all the APN settings (It's on ATT LTE, I'm in a LTE market). Can't think of anything else to try, anyone have any ideas? Thanks

Adding onto what eksasol said, you MUST have a new ATT LTE sim, it will NOT work if you have a sim purchased before Sept 13 (when ST launched LTE).
You can get the new sim directly from ST for like 7 bucks last i checked. Good luck!
