Recieve MMS and sometimes can send them - Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I can recieve MMS and sometimes I can send them, but most times I get the message that the MMS cannot send. The ones I cannot send are the same size as the one I could, around 40k. I have no clue why this is happening.

Anyone have a solution for this? I actually use MMS rather often.

also for some reason my notifications say that I'm sending 2 mms when I only send one. Anyone have a solution? I'm on at&t but I don't think that matters.

Delete everything in your outbox, create a new empty MMS and write a letter or two, no images or anything and send it to yourself. If that works, then something might wrong with the stuff you're trying to include in the MMS that fails.

Stupid MMS

Alright, somehow I jacked up my mms when I tried to apply the 600kb size limit on my phone. I can send and receive txt no problems, but for some reason, i can't send mms. I am not sure what I messed up, but apparently it was something vital. Can someone please send me the registry entries for the stock mms size limits? Thanks!

MMS - message format corrupt

i get this when trying tosend out mms of pics i took.. the pics are downsized.. so i dont understand whats wrong..
anyone plsss?
anyone can help?
I'm also now experiencing this problem. Seems to happen when you take a picture and use the on screen option to create an MMS message and send the picture immediately.
The message sends and a response comes back after a few seconds saying that the message format is corrupt... anyone got any ideas what may be causing this? I'm still stock ROM since Nov 4. 08.
Cheers,
DrSpain
since 09 no one has come up with an answer for this?

For the lost souls that find this thread I leave here the solution that fixed my problem (on HTC Desire). I also had the corrupt message being displayed each time sending an MMS. Nothing was resolving my issue. I tried a lot of stuff from deleting and adding APN settings manually to installing APN apps to create the settings for me.
What worked for me:
I created a second entry on the APN settings with the same data as the normal APN for MMS. So instead of having an APN for MMS I now have 2 (with different names). And it started to send and receive MMS. Not sure why this works, but it does.
Also, I've also read somewhere that selecting a different network to lose the connection with the current one and going back again that would fix this issue. It didn't work for me though.
HTC Aria / Android MMS Fix
I recently experienced what I believe is your issue. "message format corrupt" I could send/receive SMS, could receive MMS, but could not send MMS. What I discovered is that there is an error (for lack of a better term) when you import your contacts into Android or Google Contacts where the device, (for MMS messages, but seems to work fine for phone calls) does not recognize telephone numbers with parentheses. In the contacts you have as (505) 555-1212 you'll need to edit to 505-555-1212. This will fix the issue. As a quick test, instead of selecting the contact you wish to MMS and manually enter the number; it should go through just fine.

OK what the heck... SMS only sending short messages... used to break them up?

Hello all,
I have searched and found the fix to raise the limit to send MMS, but I don't think that is my issue. Here is what my phone is doing...
When I send a SMS txt message all is fine if it is in deed a short message. But it used to send the message in multiple messages (if longer then 160) but now it does not.
Any clue why?
FYI: I am on HyperDragon_IV_IOLITE_WWE_20090204
But my guess is this is a setting or an option, not a ROM issue.

How come SMS change to MMS?

How come when the sms message gets too long, it will be converted to MMS? How do I solve this problem?

I think your confused.. Im going to assume your trying to send a picture and it says its too large so its converting it to an mms right?
Actually, he's right. On my G1 when I hit so many characters (usually by the end of the 3rd set of 160) it changes to MMS. The reason it does this is so the network can better handle the message. Sending as 3 seperate texts would take more time for the network to submit, store, and resend, than 1 MMS message would.

No he isnt confused, when you sent a text that goes over a certain amount of characters it converts it into a mms, i dont think you can stop it from converting it but what you can do is send multiple text massages under the conversion limit
Oh okay, so there is nothing I can do about it?
Not really no. Just when you get to a certain limit and the counter appears showing how many characters you have left, just send it, and start on the next one
Send shorter messages, send an email or IM...
SMS converts to MMS when it gets 3 messages long..it has a character count so stop right before it converts and send it and continue in a new text
ok you want to rid this problem but i would like my tilt to do this aoutmaticly, any way?
Yeah, download HandCent SMS application. It will solve this application.

cannot send mms but I can receive mms

Hello,
I searched the forum, but I don't find solution.
As stated in topic name I can receive MMS message, but I cannot send one. I can send mms with text only, when I attached the picture or some multimedia file I stucked on sending... but there is no data transmition. I tried already few ROMs to exclude ROM factor. On every ROM the problem was present.
All apns are set correctly, receiving works, sending text as mms also.
Has anyone idea how to solve that?
Is that problem is still there.
