Hello,
I have recently purchased a T699 from the states as I like having a qwerty keyboard.
I have rooted the stock rom & removed some of the T mobile bloatware & samsung crap (I am on Orange in the UK)
One problem is I can receive MMS picture messages, but not send them.
I receive a "server response error", followed by "MMS not supported by network"
Orange have advised it is due to the sending frequency failing slightly outside of their parameters, apparently you can receive mms with a tolerance of +/- 5 but only send with a tolerance of +/- 2, i assume Mhz ?
They checked the APN settings which were all fine (which made sense as I can receive them, although they display as a slide show, but still display) , but were perplexed by the error messages when sending, hence the above somewhat random explanation above.
They then advised I go to xda developers for an answer !
Any advice / solutions, all would be welcome & appreciated
Edit: Weirdly I just asked the wife to send me a mms and I could send that back. I still cannot send a new one though !!

Hi,
I got spv c600 n upgraded it to wm6
when someone tries to send me an MMS message, the phone connects to GPRS, but i doont get no notifications of receiving any message.
When I click on the message icon, i only get outlook e-mail and txt messaging. no MMS
can anyone one help me pls
I have been using WM6(the andot version) on my Cingular 2125 for about 3 months now and love it. One issue that I cant seem to resolve is the MMS. I know that if you go into the TEXT MESSAGING and then click Menu, New, and then you can select either SMS or MMS. But I cant receive any MMS, unless I go to create a new one, then it shows that I have a received one, but by this time it is already expired. I cant seem to find any settings that affect the MMS Gateway or such, so any help would be great.
Update***
Now I seem to receive the message about a week later.
What WM6 ROM are you using?
Try Nitro's or EA's version. There is also a setting as to whether you prefer messaging to use GSM or GPRS somewhere.

Got similar problem here with wm6 Eng_Standard v.3.1 running on c600 - I can send MMS but not receive - instead of that I receive SMS notification that this MMS was placed somewhere on GSM carriers servers. By pressing Menu>Send/Receive the top bar shows 'Error Synchronizing' message... Is it possible to change some settings to fix that? Any suggestions, please (my HTC TyTN on the same carrier copes with this issue without any prob - Sends/Receives MMS's both ways).
I suggest having a read of this thread...

.. it may answer a few questions. I have MMS working perfectly on o2 UK on the "perfect English" ROM with the settings I posted in the above thread, no delay in receiving messages.
For the past 2 weeks, I've been bugged by this error message when I'm replying to an SMS:
"The message was not sent to one or more recipients. To verify address and network coverage, select Retry. To save to Drafts, select Cancel"
I have reflashed my Omnia with 3 different roms and I still get that error whenever I reply to an SMS. I'm now on my 4th rom (M2D04).
I had Vito SMS-Chat installed in the previous roms. I did not install it now thinking maybe it was the culprit.
Have anyone else experienced the same problem?
Now I'm really pissed. I reflashed again, now using Secany's HK3 rom. Didn't install any apps, just wanted to check if the problem with replying to SMS will be gone. But I still get that error message!!!
have you made sure your operator settings are correct
My operator settings are correct.
Sometimes I can send/reply to messages, but most of the time I can't.
I've seen similar problems get resolved by checking this option:
Go to messaging-->menu-->options. Go to the address tab and make sure under 'In contacts get email addresses from' it reads 'All email fields'.
Try giving it another shot now.
Thanks, I'll give it a try!
No luck. Still can't send/reply SMS.
I am now suspecting my telecom provider is blocking SMS coming from Samsung Omnias. Is this possible?
Here's the situation:
The telecom provider (Telecom A) I'm using is aggressively promoting the iPhone 3G. Another telecom (Telecom B) is marketing the Samsung Omnia. Here, the iPhone is losing to the Omnia. So is it possible that Telecom A is sabotaging the Omnia if you use Telecom A's simcard on the Omnia?
I switched my sim in the Omnia to that of Telecom B's last night. So far, all my messages were sent without any problems. If I didn't encounter any SMS errors until tomorrow, then I think my theory is right.
Also, I have 2 other friends who have Omnia, one is using Telecom A, and the other is using Telecom B. The one using Telecom A also have the same problem as mine, while the one using Telecom B haven't encountered it yet.
Ahhh, CONSPIRACY ALERT!
No, I doubt that your theory is correct! You forget one thing: your "Telecom A" earns money while you're sending a short message - no matter what phone you're using! They surely promote their own phones when you sign up for a service agreement or upgrade your existing plan; however, what they want you to do, is, to make many calls and send plenty messages because that is what they rely on to make money.
I really think that something in your settings is still not correct - this is the only one reason why it won't send out your messages!
Using Telecom B's simcard on my Omnia the whole day today, no problems with SMS sending.
Regarding the settings, if there are incorrect settings, then I won't be able to send a single SMS. But there were times that my SMS goes through.
I was thinking.....maybe its just sim/signal issues more to do with the combination of Telecom A + your Omnia. Figures...because your saying it works perfectly fine on the other chip. And that automatically rules out anything to do with the roms or the device itself. I've seen issues like these...and well sometimes....there really is no explaining them.
But I never experienced this when my phone was still new and on G3 rom.
Like the title says.
BASIC INFO
Here's some basic info. I live in NYC, have t-mobile, have experienced the issue with with my Moto X (T-mobile - aka GSM unlocked) and in the past T-mobile HTC One. both running 4.4 and 4.4.2. Using the stock apps, no third party stuff.
THE ISSUE
My MMS have been hit or missed. They all show as sent on my Moto X but don't always get received (I confirm with the people I'm sending to & check "view details")
This has been going on for like 2 months. 2 days ago, I've been getting SMS really late. for example, receiving SMS 2 days later (I check the timestamps)
TROUBLESHOOTING
So far i've done EVERYTHING lol:
factory reset
3 moto x warranty exchanges
Tried using a T-mobile HTC One
reset app caches
tried not installing any (just factory apps and settings as a controlled variable)
tried different locations (with without WiFi)
sent MMS with images below 1mb limit and even smaller just to be safe
Using new SIM cards with EACH phone
I have concluded that T-mobile has network issues they refuse to acknowledge and I plan on leaving them for a better carrier, cheaper isn't better in T-mobile's case.
Any wanna offer some wisdom, Could someone help a brother out? Thanks in advance!
Motorola (along with my own testing) has confirmed that the stock messaging app has bugs for sending receiving MMS/SMS
I am having a smiliar issue with sms and mms. I am working on a S4 clone (w/ 3G only). It use to be able to send sms to other phones. Recently, it can only send to T-Mobile carriers only. I can receive sms, mms from any other carriers. Sometimes, I can rarely send sms and mms to other carriers. Maybe once in every 20 times. Most of the time, it says "Sending..." and then auto notification saying "not send". Sometimes, the auto notification are instant (pops up right after I hit send button). I am using the stock msg app. any idea? I triple checked my APN and it goes online fine.
Greetings,
My son has a Nexus 5 that I recently rooted for him. He is running the stock 6.0 rom. He is having times when he can not receive MMS messages. It will just sit there downloading. This was a problem before he was rooted. I had him try messenger instead of hangouts & that worked for a while but started again yesterday. After I rebooted, it seemed to work for now. Any thoughts? He also has a similar problem downloading torrents. Sometimes it works & sometimes nothing will work. Would going to a different rom help? Maybe Pure Nexus or CM13. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

The obvious thing would be the settings. Have you checked the MMS settings with your carrier's website? And (unless I'm badly mistaken) MMS works on data (in the UK at least), so it needs to be switched on to allow the phone to receive MMS messages.
Or do you mean that it's intermittent ("He is having times when he can not receive MMS messages"), in which case it may just be the signal?

I checked the setting to make sure he can receive MMS. Also, data is on & working. As far as the signal strength, if it was low would not all SMS & MMS not be received?
Pat
Pat, I'm an end-user as I guess you are, so I can't talk sensibly about the technicalities. I do know from experience that SMS and MMS are separate functions - you can receive SMSs any time that you have a signal, but if your MMS settings aren't perfectly configured you don't get the messages. On a number of occasions I've had a pop-up saying "You have an MMS message" but it wasn't downloaded until I specifically enabled data (even though wifi was already enabled).
Actually, that last sentence raises a question in my own head. If both wifi and data are on, Android will prefer wifi - I wonder if it actually disables data, or would an MMS still arrive even though wifi is overriding data? Maybe somebody who knows what they're talking about can help us both...
You didn't answer my question about whether it's intermittent. Has the phone ever received MMS? If so, when did it stop? If it has never received them, I would really double-check your carrier website and look particularly for different advice - my own UK provider's forum has a number of pages, and there are several different MMS configurations, all of them claiming to be the definitive settings...
I have two (work & personal) Blu G90 Pro which I believe are fantastic values bought on Amazon for <USD 200. My SP is AT&T and these are Volte compatible but not white listed so something will have to give. My problem is after recently applying security update BLU_G0370WW_V10. 0.04.05_GENERIC on ONE of them, ordinary Google SMS messages are "Not Sent". Sending MMS, sending "Chat", and receiving all messages work fine. All online fixes short of factory reset tried - no luck. All APN and mobile network *#*#4636#*#* settings same on both phones. Tried different SMS app - same symptoms. Swapped SIM/SD cards and problem follows phone. Wondering/warning if anyone experienced this and found a fix?

Follow up to initial post. As noted, the second phone, for which the referenced update had not yet been run, has had no problems with SMS - or anything else. (Still an undervalued, highly recommended phone). Today the update ran on this second phone and the exact same problem immediately manifested - it cannot send plain SMS text. No problems receiving and no problems sending MMS texts.
I tried several times to post this issue on the Blu support site and after filling out the form (including color of phone which is Purple Haze and not in the dropdown) it would not accept my post with no form errors. So I am posting here.
