Cannot send MMS pictures or videos

I have an AT&T Tilt. I hit soft reset after a hard reset so that the bloatware didn't install. I can send text messages no problem. I cannot send a picture message. I can sometimes receive them, but I cannot send them from my phone. I have been trying to send them to a Verizon phone and have not tried an AT&T phone. Has anyone had a similar issue where they weren't able to send a picture message and resolved it?

tytn/tytn II mms
Never worked with wm6 correctly (finland, tytn/tytnII)
-Using port 9201 & WAP version 1.2 -> MMS under 70k possible to send and receive, higher not (when sending , it just hangs in 99%).
-Using port 8080 & WAP version 2.0 -> MMS up to 600k send ok, never able to receive "errMsg: error" (your messages cannot be downloaded).
This is only my experience (Elisa Finland). other providers and countries propably work ok.
anyone?

You won't have your AT&T operator settings installed with the method you used to eliminate the 'bloatware' Search for the Network settings cab on this forum as it may help you.

I found out the problem. AT&T can send and receive up to 600k. Verizon can only receive and send up to 350K. I had to change the outbound pictures to QVGA size and had to adjust the video to a smaller file. I guess different have different size limitations. In case anyone else experiences this problem, you need to adjust your settings.
Removing the bloatware does not remove any of the phone settings. It just remove the unnecessary software.

Please go back and edit your start post Title to this thread with {fixed} then others can use it for reference. Cheers and well done.

MMS Sending Problems...

I can't seem to send an MMS, I have my internet configured properly, I can connect to my GPRS (wap.voicestream.com)
and I setup my MMS Settings according to T-Mobile
# Enter 216.155.165.050 in the Gateway field.
# Enter 8080 in the Port number field.
# Enter http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms in the Server Address field.
# WAP 2.0
But somehow or another I can't seem to send a picture, I used to be able to with my last old phone (razor)... but since I switch my sim cards and used WM6 I am unable to send messages, any other configuration options I should try? Please help
--I've tried other ports besides 8080, since other sites say like 9201, etc.
I don't have the internet package for my plan, however I am able to send 400 MMS/SMS Messages, and always was able too... when I connect to the internet on my phone, it goes threw, and when I try to do something on IE, or AIM or whatnot, it doesn't work, obviously I'll assume its because I don't have the package... But I can't understand why I cannot send a message with a picture attached :-/.

yes i have the same problem
i have the wing. and i used to have a razr i have att and can receve mms messages but can not send and they seem to be small, but from what i have been told you have to have a data plan. i really hope thats not true but thats what iv been told.

use HTC Network Wizard..if u are using WM6 then its already there..and if u configured using it then maybe ur provider has changed some settings..give them a visit or a call and ask them for ur settings

I've been through the settings several times and I just simply can't get this to work even with the settings that T-Mobile gave me or with the Network Wizard. Any one had a break through with this?

which ROM are u using ?

The one stickied at the top of the forum by c_shekhar
Info:
ROM: 7.0c.40CS (WM6 AKU 7.0)

MMS fix for boost mobile

Okay I may have a mms fix for boost, but it is in .cab format and I'm not sure how or if I can use it. any ideas will help.

APN Settings for MMS on Boost
I'm currently running Incubus26Jc's Super FroYo 2.2 [Deodexed] [RLS12] on my Vogue, on Boost Mobile's network, and I am able to send MMS by attaching picture files in text messaging. The only settings I changed were in the default APN:
MMSC: mm.myboostmobile.com (add http: and // in front. Since this is my first post I'm not allowed to post URLs )
MMS port: 80
No other changes to the APN settings are necessary to send MMS.
I'm pretty sure that it's impossible to receive an actual MMS on Boost's network. You will get the text message with a link to the Media Mail page (which never works, at least for me).

Can you share your cab? I'd like to try and could prolly use it, since I'm running a Touch Pro2 WinMo 6.5 and XDAndroid. Thanks

Can someone please help me? I used the mm.myboostmobile.com and get a 'error-permanent-system failure' when getting receiving pic mail but could send. Also, my hubby who uses a Boost BB gets a blank message. So I used pcs-boost-mmsc-submit.sun3.lightsurf.net. and I was able to not send media mail but receive it without any problems. I have an energy ROM and using the Arcsoft MMS version you have above. This is so ridiculous. Do I have to use mms program specially for my Sense Energy CRX ROM or what? I do not understand what's wrong with this? Is it because I have an Energy ROM?

Text and picture message on BoostMobile
Text and picture messaging on BoostMobile is no longer working. Anyone out there has a fix for it?
"mm.myboostmobile.com" is no longer working.

Just keep waiting and testing it out, it's not device specific it appears to be network and location specific, read more here: "http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php/1721560-New-Boost-Mobile-MMS-Settings"

I haven't had a chance to dig my vogue out and try this, but I was thinking you guys might want to grap the mms.apk file from the shabbymod Rom for the Prevails and see if allows MMS texts to pass on through as normal.

Just a thought.

Did you ever find an answer? I am having the same issue

[Q] Droid + Cricket MMS issues

Yes, I know this question has been asked 150,000 times. Yes, I've read the threads. Dozens of times.
I have a Droid 1 on Cricket's $45 plan, and it's working perfectly. Calls, text, data, everything works 100% of the time, except MMS.
I've tried different roms (stock, bugless beast 0.2 and onwards, gpa15, gpa16, gpa17, simplystunning 5.2-.4, liquid gingerbread 2.0-.6, cyanogenmod 6-7, droid concepts, all of them), I've tried greenk45, I've tried xsylus's recommended apn settings + scriptrunner, I've tried the regular cricket APN settings (wap.mycricket.com:8080, 310:004, 310:016, server being * or wap.mycricket.com or mms.mycricket.com etc.) I've tried EVERYTHING.
And no matter what, when I try sending an MMS it just keeps 'sending' forever, and when I send an MMS from another phone or text4free.net, I get a text from 8662742538 saying "Multimedia messages are being sent to your device, but your device doesn't support these messages. Visit your nearest Cricket store for new device options"
I will do ANYTHING. ANYTHING you tell me to do. I will flash any rom, I will type any APN settings, run any script, I don't care what it takes. I just want to receive a single MMS on this otherwise perfectly-working phone.
I've been a C/assembly programmer for 13 years, I'm no stranger to any technical jargon you can throw at me, I just desperately need to know why this unimaginably simple task is impossible to achieve.

Log into your mycricket.com account and check your plan. This just happen to my wife's phone. I changed phones and did a ESN change. It removed "Picure Messaging/text messaging" and replaced it with "text messaging". Therefore you'll get that message when someone sends you an MMS because your phone does not have that feature enabled.
Call cricket and have them provision your phone again. I had to tell them i had a Samsung (cricket phone) and explained that it was flashed to Sprint and back to cricket.

not sure if this applies to cricket but on verizon, i couldn't ever send a mms without setting my data to enabled, if i didn't enable data it would take 399 years

Believe me, it's the account settings. When I did a ESN change a few days ago the system automatically removed Picture/Video. I had to call back and tell them i had a Samsung R560 and refresh my account. Then it showed back up and I no longer get that message when pictures are sent to the phone.

Very interesting! I logged in and only had text messaging, no picture messaging listed. I called 1-800-CRICKET and a lady said everything was now fixed, but still no MMS. Now there's not only no picture messaging listed, but no regular texting either. Seems strange.
Perhaps worst of all, when sending test MMS's from web sites, I'm no longer receiving the dreaded 'your device doesn't support these messages' text from 8662742538 that I used to, now there's no notification of anything whatsoever!
I've posted a screenshot of my current plan settings at the end of this post, can anyone comment? I'll go to the local Cricket shop tomorrow, but I doubt they'll know what's going on - it's a very small shop that doesn't do flashes or anything.
Pic link (can't post links/attachments yet):
i40.tinypic.com/307yefd.png

OK the Cricket store said everything was 100% fine, there was nothing wrong with my plan, and that picture messaging was included. Though if you look in the screenshot, there's still nothing mentioning picture messaging.
Could someone post an (anonymous of course) screenshot of their plan from mycricket.com? Preferably someone on the $45 plan. I just don't understand why it's so difficult to receive MMS messages - if I had a debugger and access to the phone's radio I could figure this out in 5 minutes, the current system seems like nothing but voodoo.

Well nothing changed regarding my last post, and I didn't change any settings on my phone, but now SMS is sending and receiving. No idea why.
APN settings I've had for the past month: Name: Cricket, APN: internet, no proxy, no port, user: (MDN)@mycricket.com, pass: cricket, server: wap.mycricket.com, mmsc: hxxp://mms.mycricket.com/servlets/mms (hxxp changed to allow posting here), no proxy, no port, mcc: 310, mnc: 016, apn type: default,mms. this is all using the dns-based autostart.sh being executed by ScriptRunner.
Also if anyone has trouble with the APN list appearing empty or edited entries disappearing, it's because your build.prop file is listing a different MCC/MNC pair than the APN you've entered - your build.prop probably lists ro.cdma.home.operator.numeric as 310004 or something, so unless the APN matches that (try changing MNC to 016 and watch it disappear), Android decides not to display it.

Unable to send text message.

Hi guys.
I switched from AT&T to IDEA when I moved back to India.
I was able to send messages when I was on AT&T.
But now that I am on IDEA, I am not able to send the mesaage.
I receive below message. I tried multiple SMS apps but none worked. Any help will be appreciated.
Error:- message not sent. Phone number not formatted correctly.
I am using nexus 6 with stock 7.1.1 (august security patch)

https://www.komparify.com/blogs/index.php/apn/idea.html
Check your APN. Also, is your N6 a US model or world model?

My N6 is a us model. Also why would internet settings (APN) are required for text messaging? Internet works fine with LTE.

Text messaging is enabled through three fields in the APN: "MMSC", "MMS proxy" and "MMS port". In order for text messaging to work those fields must be filled in. In the case of my carrier, Straight Talk, it uses AT&T's settings for text messaging. In the APN it looks like this.
Code:
MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS port: 80
In taking a second look at the Idea APN, it doesn't appear to use those settings, but you might want to get a hold of Idea and ask them what is going on. It's unlikely the device itself is the issue, but being an XT1103 I have no way to know for certain.

I think it's has to do with # formatting. I had Tuenti Movistar app in Spain and when came back was getting incorrect format message as all #s were prefixed with +34 Spain country code by default. Uninstalled app and was fine with text and calling
