You can't do MMS over wifi, you'll have to switch to mobile data to do MMS. It should work normally, but I've found that MIUI and MMS don't really go together when you're on wifi.

Ok I see. I turned off WiFi and of course my data doesn't work. I thought MIUI/CM7 fixed the loss of apn (data) issue ? Although I can make calls, I can not use data over the mobile network unless I remove my battery and reboot with WiFi off. This sucks.

Are you sure your are actually connected to the data network ? try to access the market if it fails then you are not connected.

Yup! I can successfully connect. But my apns have data and mms as different profiles. So I think its switching to mms then before it sends properly it tries switching back to data? I don't think there's a way to combine the two apns for wind mobile. But it works fine on weapon :s any more clues??
Thanks for your help so far!!

APNs are like that. One APN for data, one for mms.

Hmm I noticed in #*#*4636*#*# that my phone is constantly switching between data and mms. I've tried deleting the mms that I'm sending but the phone still constantly switches between the two. Anyone have any reasons?

I just checked and once I try and send an mms it locks the phone in this vicious cycle of switching between internet and mms apn settings. Then a reboot fixes it. Anyone else experience this? I'm not sure if or how I can give more detailed info.

i dont have any issue, but sometime when phone goes through dead spot and radio crashes.. where it stay stuck in no service, you flick on plane mode and it doesn't effect it. So you'd have to reboot in order to get your service back. Otherway around that is you go in mobile network and select your network, but apns will disappear. :d SO just reboot.

Would it be too much trouble to ask you how did you fix this? some of us are dealing with this issue and we will appreciate if you can give us the solution since there's no patch or fix out there
thanks

I looked around and found that mms doesn't work over wifi, regardless of rom or root or anything. It seems the tmo servers need to make a data connection in order to start mms send. I've never had a problem receiving mms over wifi, but sending seems not possible.
Edit: As far as receiving, I enabled "auto retrieve"and have had no problems receiving mms on wifi.

I'm not using WiFi to send MMS and after checking the APNs I found two one says epc.t-mobile.com and the other one says simple with proxy settings in it... did a hard reboot, reboot, wipe dalvik cache, wipe cache and still have the same issue, very frustrating

[Q] MMS APN for T-Mobile USA after Black Update

After the black update, I lost the ability to send and receive MMS on my Unlocked Lumia 1020 on T-Mobile USA network. I've entered the fast.t-mobile.com APN settings on both Internet and MMS, I have 4G LTE internet working, but MMS still does not work.
Before there was a Nokia app that auto configured this for me. I can't seem to find this after the Black update, or it is baked into the system now, but for the life of me, I cannot get the MMS working with the APN settings I have. Tried both epc and fast.

I'll be going into my local T-Mobile store later today, hopefully I can get an answer from them.

I got mine working.
OK so with the access point app installed what I did was install a manual APN outside that settings app. I went to settings > cellular and pressed the add MMS APN.
Once I set it up I was able to send but not receive. Just use the APN settings available pretty much anywhere for T-Mobile. After that remove the settings all together and reboot.
I guess the APN app setting kicks in again and viola. Worked for me anyways. Hope it works for everyone else.

[Q] ATT LTE but cannot receive MMS?

This weekend I moved from StraightTalk (w/ATT SIM) to ATT. Everything worked fine on ST, but now that I'm on ATT directly.. I cannot receive MMS.
I can do everything fine -- send/receive SMS, access the Internet at LTE speeds, send MMS. I've tried a bunch of APN's and my current settings are below.
Any thoughts on what to switch would be greatly appreciated! Since I'm on a Nexus 5, AT&T has basically shrugged their shoulders and said, It's not an ATT phone, so all the features may not work.
Name: ATT Phone
APN: phone
Proxy: not set
Port: not set
Username: Not Set
Password: Not Set
Server: Not Set
MMSC: ://mmsc.mobile.att.net (removed the http to get past the newbie link filter)
MMS Proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS Port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication Type: Not set
APN Type: default,mms,supl,fota
APN Protocol: IPv4
APN Roaming Protocol: IPv4
Bearer: Unspecified
MVNO Type: none

Is your account provisioned correctly?

How would I know if it is not?
Everything else works as it should. LTE speed, sending/receiving SMS, sending MMS...
Edit: support rep with ATT checked the IMEI and SIM number and they match what's in the system.

Sometimes it takes a little while for messages to catch up. As long as your APN is correct, and you are on the right plan, you should be fine.

It's been 48+ hours -- seems like long enough for things to sort themselves out or it can take longer than that?
No one has said the APN is wrong... I was hoping some other folks with a Nexus 5 on ATT would be able to comment/confirm that what I have works for them.

The settings are correct.
Turn off wi-fi, make sure Data is on. and try again.

No joy. Wi-fi is off, data is on (I can get to Google). I've also tried with LTE enabled and then at 3G (LTE off). Pictures continue to send fine, but just won't receive them.
Even if Wi-fi is on, I don't receive pictures.
I guess I'll wait another couple of days and see. Worst comes to worst, I can switch back to StraightTalk w/ATT sim and be where I was. Seems odd to work correctly on a second tier (in my mind anyway) carrier and not a first tier one.
Thanks!

If he puts the http:// in front of the mmsc, then yes it IS a link.

Yeah, really not a reason that it's not working. What size MMS are you trying to send?

I've tried about 20 different pictures that I've sent historically, plus AT&T Support couldn't send me pictures... nor could any friends. I don't know the size of any of the images. Just for fun, I've tried four different SMS/MMS apps, yeah I know.. that shouldn't matter at all.
On occasion the app has said "resizing image" before letting attache and send it, so some were "large".

On your AT&T account online, what type of data plan do they have you on?

I tend to use 250ish, so the limit works for me.

Have you tried resetting the APN and then re-entering the AT&T settings? Just to see if something needs to be cleared out?

Yes, I've deleted all the APN settings my phone had and then manually entered in the one that I'm using.
I am.. it seems, quite the anomaly!

My wife was having that problem on her GS3 with AT&T. In the messaging app we set it to roaming Auto retrieve and it worked after that.
Hope that works for you.

I just tried that and didn't work.
And, I would like to officially stack claim to my status as an anomaly. I had one (1)picture that I sent myself today out of about 50 that actually went through. That's right, one was sent/received.. no setting or anything changed and back to can't receive.
I did also try deleting all APNs, rebooting the phone (taking the "clean things out" idea to an extreme) and manually typed in the APN.. no good.
Could my problem be with the Message Center Number? I've seen that referenced in a few places... but as I can send, it seems that wouldn't be the issue.
If I dial *#*#4636#*#* and go into Phone Information, the SMSC is blank. While I can type info into it, there's no "save" or "update" option...
If I hit refresh it populates with "+131323149810",145
Part in "s looks right for ATT, but again... no way to save it. The Update button doesn't 'seem to do anything.
K

It's definitely a weird problem for sure. It's one of those problems that if I had the phone in front of me...it might be a different story.

Skyrocket MMS not working with AT&T GoPhone sim

I've searched the forum and googlez but each APN I've tried does not allow MMS to receive. The candy kat 4.4.2 rom has a bunch of apns already entered. Tried each one. I can send MMS but cannot receive any. Is there anyone else using Gophone sim with working MMS?? What APN do you use?

I had this same issue, usually if data works your apn is fine. Try using a different app than what comes stock. I dl'd chompsms and I could receive mms again. Gosms is a nice alternative also.

[Q] mms issue on my new g3

Bought my G3 last week, rooted, de-loated and applying Straight Talk APN to run, everything works great with the exception of mms. Even though, I swtiched to hangouts text messaging but still cant able to download any mms. Any idea or settings that might have missed. Highly appreciate it.

I had the same issue. You have make sure that APN type is left blank. This fixed the issue for me. I had to use APN backup then SQLite editor to remove "default" from APN type and restore the APN.
Hope this helps.

Adblock Plus also blocks MMS if you added that.

What does it mean by APN type. Just so you know there is an additional APN menu on Google Hangout(default messenger for me). I did not touch anything there, it's there by default. I have added ST APN and 4g LTE is working fine and also receiving regular text messages. Not sure what else I could check for. I am not using ADBlock plus also..

In the APN settings you should have an option for "APN type". Mine was always defaulting to "default,hipri" whenever I would try to set it up. If you can leave it blank without it defaulting back, you should be good. I had to make a backup of the APN then change the database and restore it to make it stick. I will try to post some images for you.
