For some reason since day one I cannot send or receive MMS messages. I am running fully stock. When I send the message says sending and wont send, and when I receive one it shows downloading and will not download.
Can anyone suggest a fix for this?
I searched around and i found a similair post on reddit about this. The only way to fix is with a factory reset in settings. I did this and sure enough my mms worked.

My device is running WM6.
I don't send MMS often, but I've noticed that I can no longer send or receive MMS messages. They get stuck in my outbox or come in with a message saying they can't be downloaded.
When I first got the phone, it worked fine. Now, it tells me that the images are too big to be sent (don't know where the 100k limit came from), even though I only use the cell phone camera to take pics and i have to compress them. After compressing, it still doesn't send.
What should my settings be? Where do I find these settings?
Anyone?
Could I be having this issue because I use the Tmobile $5.99 internet?? If so, can someone tell me what (if anything) I can do to fix it??

After working well for the first week, my Captivate has stopped recieving text messages. I have tried sending from several different sources as well as sending an email to my phone [email protected] to no avail. Anyone have any ideas on where to start?!

Check your AT&T Account manager online, make sure you still have a text messaging plan. When I did an upgrade some how it was removed and I just didn't get or receive any texts for a few days.... not even a charge.
i bet your text messaging settings got changed that happened to me but i forgot how to change srry
Finally! Someone else with this problem! I have to do a factory reset or a reflash every time it happens, and it works after that, but I haven't been having any trouble with it since I went back to stock. (No root or any fixes/sideloaded apps, only about 5 apps total installed.)
Did you have any sort of task killer installed?
I'm on doctorz 8.1 right now, and i am unable to send or receive mms..
If i try and send one, it just says sending and never stops. I received a text from rogers about an update, and it never downloaded, and it was 20kb
is there any known fixes to this?
I haven't really been playin with apn settings, but i know where to find them.
So ever since I updated to JB I've had trouble sending MMS. I can receive MMS just fine I just can't send. I've searched and searched and have found several posts on several different websites (including this forum) about this issue but none of them have had a solution (or a solution that worked for me) the last thread I read hasn't had a reply since January 10th so i'm posting this question here again so in case someone has found a solution since then.
So here is the problem. When I try to send an MMS I go through the steps of opening my messaging app (I used handcent) and inserting a picture (or screenshot) to a message. I hit "send" and I get the little progress circle and it will just sit there and spin forever. Won't give me an error saying unable to send but it will just sit there and spin and never send. I know for a fact that it doesn't send because I've confirmed with the person i'm trying to send to that they didn't get it. Now if I reboot my phone the MMS will send when the phone restarts. At one point just simply switching to Airplane mode and back got the MMS to send. That does not work any more. Only rebooting the phone will make the MMS send.
Just about every post that I've seen about this gets a reply with "turn your mobile data on" or "make sure you're not on wifi cause it only sends on 3g/4g". I know that you can't send MMS through wifi so that's not the problem. And even if you're on wifi if you send an MMS your phone will automatically kick on the mobile data to send that message. But just to rule that out I have completely turned off my wifi and made sure I had a 4g signal and made sure it was working by going to the internet. So I know the lack of mobile data is not the problem. And yes I have mobile data turned on so that is not the problem either.
I have a Verizon GS3 with the stock ROM. I did root and unlock my bootloader shortly before the JB OTA update was released with plans on installing a custom ROM but never got around to it so i'm still stock. I did not unroot before I did the OTA update.
I have read on some threads that people have called their carrier's tech support (yes, apparently people have had this issue on other carriers) and have done a factory reset at the request of tech support and that has not fixed the problem.
So if anybody has found a solution or come across a solution to this annoying issue please do share. I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!
