(Help) Can't send or receive mms! :( - AT&T LG G3

Anyone know any possible fixes?

Check your apns?
Sent from my LG-D850 using XDA Free mobile app

This happened to me when I rooted. I restored the phone and it started working again. I'm waiting to see an ATT specific root thread and then I'll try again. BTW I used towelroot. If you are rooted, did you use the same? Maybe the two aren't connected, but they coincided for me.

Dark , I had this issue after installing adblock. Did you do the same?

Well I went back and rooted again with towelroot, mms worked - so it's looking like adblock - I had that installed previously and I could not install mms. Did this work for you?

The issue with adblock has existed awhile based on a topic in their bug forums . The problem is adblock blocks port 80 for mms . There isn't a way to set a white list for adblock .Most users try to get around it by changing their apn settings with mms as port 8080. This "fix" hasn't work for me , but if anyone is interested in a similar app to adblock ...check out adaway on Fdroid. It has the same function and more extensive options for a whitelist . You can even log an app's ads to decide to black/whitelist.

Changing APN setting MMS port to 8080 worked for me! Thanks!

Omg. Thank you OP. I came to deliver this same message. I just got off the phone with att because changing apns wouldn't work at all so 4 days I'll hear from another att tech that'll ask me to reboot. So it looks like I need to stop using adblock! Thanks dudes!!

EPST using ##778# (all apps working on Cricket - unstable)

This issue has been resolved - Tutorial posted at the link below.

Not the answear you waiting but i have a hero that id like to flash to metro... any idea? Link? Thanks

well I can tell you it can be done with everything working but mms. my brother in law has the solution and his ego is working on cricket with everything but mms.

Same here. I have an Evo on Cricket including market and apps except for MMS. The autostart/u2nl method for the Eris works on the Evo using the same autostart.sh script (unmodified). However the 3G connection is flaky and times out frequently. Also I get random Data Call error 98 messages related to Sprint stuff still on the phone. (I'm running a rooted stock 2.1 ROM)
I also noticed that during the toast root process I was able to ##778# (quite to my surprise) then it went away when I flashed the whitslack update ROM (upgrades radio, wimax, etc).
The strange thing re: MMS is that I tried the APN backup/restore option which worked on the Eris and it "appears" to work. The configuration settings within the Message application "look" right for Production but alas I still cannot receive or send pic messages. No biggie (I ain't paying someone just to get MMS working) but would be nice to have it working. Seems like overkill to have to create an entire ROM just to get MMS working.
Anyway...it's quite frustrating since the Eris works perfectly on Cricket with the autostart/u2nl solution.
##778# and any other ## command doesnt work for me anymore. any ideas to fix?

Anycut can link to EPST settings.
Chances are the reason it works in one rom and not another is due to the apk's installed. look for differences in the framework folder - the lib folder - and the /system/app folder from your rom that is working the rom that is not.
I belive the EPST settings are native to stock HTC roms and thus not included in a cyanogen based rom (thats how it is on the eris at least). Most people on the phone's true network will never need EPST so it may be getting removed by the rom developer to cut down on space and increase speed etc.
just my thoughts.

Side load apps without rooting

just go to settings-
Applications-manage applications-All-
customizable settings provider- then press clear
data-press back once-find settings-press clear
data-than you should find in applications
"unknown sources"
I thought AT&T pushed out an update on the stock Inspires a while back that allows sideloading in a much simpler way? Settings>>Applications>>put a check mark on "Unknown sources" or something like that. No need to go through those hoops you mentioned I thought.

I'm still waiting for that update unfortunately.
Also, doesn't this method break MMS or something? I'm so used to sideloading via adb that it doesn't even bother me anymore. Only hassle is getting my Amazon AppStore apps on to my phone.
Worked for me, thanks!

Ok good to know. I figured everyone had this update by now but apparently not (stupid AT&T).
yes it does break mms, and still havent figured out why although havent been to worried about it.
Also changing apn settings doesnt work either, tried several even copied my brothers exactly, restored mine from a back up and still no mms.
Have to restore phone to get mms back and lose unknown source option.

And I'm sure you're the one who originally discovered this trick, right?
While I'm sure your intentions are good, how about at least giving proper credit if you're going to recycle information?

I hope you don't have a bunch of data on your phone, you're going ro have to do a factory reset to get MMS working again.
Scott_S, of course not, it's all over youtube... n i wasn't aware it breaks mms either..

Like I said, I don't think you had evil intentions, just that chances are, with this kind of stuff, it originated here on XDA, so when it's posted again, with no reference to it's originator, it kinda sticks out.
No worries. Just for future reference...

thanks... so i tried my mms and it WAS broken. I was able to fix it by adding a new APN with the correct settings. I got it from searching google.

I did this APN settings and chose it thereafter...

all i did was create a New APN. after creating it, i chose it as my default APN (dotted)
works for me. stock build number 1.84.50211 CL341719 release-keys
As far as i know, your the only one that it works for, considering i have tried pretty much all apn's that i could find, including backup of my old apn pre clearing those settings. Others have tried doing same thing works for no one to my knowledge.
I've yet to receive the update as well. I used superoneclick, temp. rooted the phone, ran the "allow non market apps" feature and now collect my free app of the day every day. My phone is not rooted/flashed and I've freed myself from the wonder machine. Easiest and most underrated method in my opinion.

Instead of doing this and potentially ruining your MMS, you should call AT&T and they will push the update to your phone... worked for me when I was sick of waiting.
Using SuperOneClick doesn't break mms. It is a different hack that breaks mms. SOC doesn't add the option to the menu, but it does enable it.

if u wanna do this without rooting just get yourself temp root go to the market and get the unknown sources app and run it. you have to be rooted to run it but the unknown sources box stays if not rooted. I personally have not done this I'm rooted with a custom rom this is just what I read give it a try

[Q] Why can't I play youtube videos while tethering.

Ok, so when I tether to my computer using Wifi-Tehter for Root, I can do everything thing but watch youtube videos if I have a different user agent applied to my Browser. I use Firefox, and everything in firefox works except videos under 720p on Youtube. 720+ nd higher videos work fine. This is a recent problem, been using my phone to tether to the web for a while now since campus internet is god-awful.
Am I ther only one having this problem, and is there any solution?
The only other programs that doen't work would be the Store and community pages of steam. It comes up with that Tmobile hotspot shield thing.
Probably not the fault of the phone, since your phone does tether obviously and sends/receives packets so that can't be the problem. Try updating flash & then try another browser. That would be the solution for yt videos problem.
But steam issue is prolly somekind of protection of t-mobile.
Updating flash and trying a different browser doesn't work. I am experience the same issue as the OP.
did you guys ever figure this out??
Stock tmobile roms force tethering through pcweb.tmobile.com. if your on a stock room,. Try adding an additional apn and use that if that's the case.

I am on a CM rom. Stock rom doesn't seem to have this problem with me but it is also a bit more unreliable when it comes to tethering. Have we figured out how to remove the pcweb apn?
Solution FOUND? Yes
I was having the same issue as OP while tethering my SAMSUNG Galaxy NOTE. Tried the APN Backup and Restore app procedure with tethering apn fix with no luck.
Here is my solution -
BROWSER: Opera (stock latest version; no UA addon or modifications)
YOUTUBE PROXY: bestyoutubeproxy .info
Now I can watch all YouTube videos <720p otherwise tmo-blocked on regular YouTube site. Try it out. If you find a better solution please share. Thanks!

[GUIDE] How to enable sms/mms on the V410

So I figured out how to send and recieve sms on the V410
This will only work if you have texting on your carriers data plan.
BACK UP FIRST because you'll be editing the build prop..
I am not responsable for your lack of understanding if you boot loop.
1) First, you can download one of these mms apks from this thread and install: (mms will not work though, only sms)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...hemed-apps-kitkat-4-4-2-mms-apk-dark-t2519733
Or you can use Google Messenger: (my preference because mms works)
http://www56.zippyshare.com/v/EyGnHgRz/file.html
2) Next download this Xposed Module and enable, but don't reboot yet:
http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.makuser.nexussms
3)Then with a build prop editing app like Build Prop Tweaker
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ksharkapps.buildproptweakerlite, edit this line in the buildprop:
telephony.sms.send
Change from false to true then save.
4)Reboot.
5)Now when you open up the mms app or Messenger you'll have to set it to default unless you want to use Hangouts.
6)Text freely
Mms will NOT work on stock KitKat messaging apps do to limited apns on the device. Google Messenger has built in apns which allows for mms and sms.
BONUS:
Transparent and Blacked Out Google Messenger.

Nothing is working? Are you sure you saved the build prop edit? What did you use to edit it?
hey
I tired the steps but when I am changing the telephony from false to true. It just go back to false. Is it because my lg g pad is still locked on a network and not recognizing the sim that is in?

Because your build prop is not saving it. You HAVE yo use a build prop editing app, not the one in the root file managers.. Also if your data plan doesn't include texting it won't work.. Maybe it will work with a 3rd party text service, but haven't tried.
This happened to me when I tried to change from false to true without rooting the tablet. After I did the root, it worked fine.

I tried the method above to no avail. I was on the stock ROM and rooted. I flashed the Candy5 ROM as mad_g can "text SMS with out problems!!" from that ROM. Still no joy on texting from this tablet, although I do like the Candy ROM, so thank you lol. I'm on AT&T with unlimited texting. I tried multiple SMS apps including Google Messenger. The text shows as sent, but is never received on the other end. I tried with WiFi both on and off. Am I missing something obvious?
**Edit**
I have since confirmed that I have flashed the LP 5.1 version of the Xposed framework, but now, I go into the buildprop editor, and I do not have a "telephony.sms.send" option.
I still think I am missing something obvious...
I had trouble at first, but realized i had to install Xsposed framework first THEN install the sms enabler module. it worked flawlessly after that and rebooting. Can't figure out how to receive calls yet but that's a separate thing lol

[HOW TO][NO-ROOT] Blocking ads without additional software in Android 9.0 Pie

The next method allows us to block ads in Android without to installing any additional software. It's working on any android device working with Android 9 Pie and above. ​
How to do it:
Go to Settings => Connections => More connection settings => Private DNS.
Check Private DNS provider hostname
Then you can use some of the rest. The first one is recommended.
dns.adguard.com
dns-family.adguard.com
dot-de.blahdns.com
Another DNS that you can check is NextDNS. It's free to use and provide some nice features on their website.
How to block ads in Google Chrome
The DNS method works also for Google Chrome, but you need to change something to make it work. ​
Open Chrome, type in chrome://flags
Then search for async DNS resolver (#enable-async-dns) and choose disabled in the drop-down menu. Otherwise, chrome could use a built-in DNS resolver which does not block ads.
Source: Reddit
Appreciate it works wells
I don't have private DNS settings.
Edit...
Never mind. I'm not on Pie.

Get the ip address of dns.adguard.com and add it as a dns entry on your advanced setting for wifi connection.
Your better off with a vpn with blocking capabilities then running adguard as a dns.
Works like a charm. Thanks a bunch ??
This is like inventing sliced bread, thank you!
Thanks a lot!!!
Easy peasy and works great. Thanks!
Oh shoot, the only problem is that it breaks MMS/picture messaging. I reverted the mod and picture messaging works again. Any workaround or does that just go with the territory?
It seems using "dns-family.adguard.com (To block adult sites)" will also block some regular YouTube vids. Changed to "dns.adguard.com", fixed it.

Ah ok, I'm using T-Mobile. I wish it would work but it just doesn't, if I re-enable the DNS the problem comes back.

Wow!!! Works perfectly... Thank you!!
Works perfectly, without root!
Thank you very much!
Your welcome guys I also prefer that way because on AdGuard app there was some notification that can't be removed and I like my statusbar to be clean from unnecessary stuff.
Thank you for sharing with us! I humbly applied you, ??
My question is... is there a way to make use of that private DNS only on mobile data? Because when on WiFi in some work areas I need to make use of their DNS's.
