MMS Issue - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Im using rooted 2.1 HTC HERO /w Aloysius 2.1_SnowOC Maps & Handcent.
I try to send a MMS Message (Picture Message) and it just keeps sending, nothing ever happens it just sits there trying to send until i delete the message and nothing get's sent.
Has anyone had this issue?
Could anyone help me with this problem?

Handcent has issues sending MMS. It's hit or (often) miss. If you need to send a MMS, just send it using the stock app and then switch to handcent for SMS and receiving MMS.

Thanks. I'll try sending via the message app. But isn't that bug where when you send via message app the phone doesn't sleep come into play?

That bug was fixed back in 2009, I don't believe it keeps it awake any longer.

really? I Don't see why I'm using handcent than, I only got Handcent for this issue, are you sure this was resolved?

I use the stock messaging app solely, and I have had no issues with 100% awake time. I send and receive picture messages all the time.

Oh, Looks Like I'll be switching back to the normal messaging app if thats the case.

Wrong forum... What rom are you using?
And try GOSMS and see if its any better, it has some extra mms tweaks built in.

That is strange... In reality I think all alternatives(such as chomp and handcent) work off of the built in messenger app. So if your stock app works with mms, they should too...

Update prl and profile first. That tends to help a lot. Also make sure that you leave receive turned on for stock app but not notifications.

Some messages of mine were cut as well. The only thing that fixed it was an updated mms.apk & use ADB push...
Thanks to Gamingphreek for the fix...

[APP] SMS to Email with SMS Backup+

I did not develop this app and offer no support for it but thought I would share. Basically what this is doing is sending any SMS/MMS messages you receive to your tablet via GMail.
APP IS INSTALLED ON YOUR PHONE.
To get the SMS/MMS messages to "Push" to your tablet:
Go into Advanced Settings > Backup Settings and change the "GMail label to assign SMS" to Inbox.
Goto Auto Backup Settings > Incoming Schedule and make sure it is set to 1 min.
Drawback:
Unable to reply to most SMS messages.
Once the message is received on the phone it takes 1-2 minutes to get the message onto the tablet via GMail.

Um...dunno how to tell you this, but the Xoom can't send or receive sms. At all.

Edit: Nevermind...heh.
The application is installed on your phone. The Xoom receives the SMS via email. I am fully aware that the tablet currently does not receive text messages. This is just a clever way around that.

Handcent MMS not sending

In order to send MMS messages on handcent I have to unfreeze the stock messaging app and use that because Hanscent will not send. It just shows the icon for still being sent.
Is anyone having this problem or doea anyone know a solution? I can receive MMS messages on Handcent but can not send them without using the stock messaging app.

The stock messaging app is what receives mms. So it needs to stay "installed." I've heard of others being able to set up go SMS to retrieve mms, but I found that to be a very unreliable solution.

I just switched to gosms and it works perfectly so ill go with that.

It doesn't matter you always have to have the stock messaging app to receive mms. Just hide the Stock Messaging app.
Even with it hidden it wouldn't work with handcent. But gosms pro is good

It should work with the icon being hidden from the app drawer since it's technically still there it's not like when you freeze it.
I tried but I guess not. Ill be good with gosms for now

You can freeze the stock SMS app and still send or receive mms with go SMS. You just have to check "uninstalled stock SMS" under the important tips section of the settings. Why there are selectable options under "important tips" I don't know, seems weird to me, but it works perfectly

I figured it out... After reinstalling handcent.... Too bad I have to reconfigure handcent.
In handcent go to settings...application settings......default messaging application..... Then pick at the bottom "use for all SMS & mms"
Now it works!
I'm curious to know if it would have worked without reinstalling.... Seems like I remember that setting was on "disable" not sure how it got set to that!

[Q] sms can not be send

Hello.
Forum read.
But I have not found how to solve the problem.
SMS is not sent, but come.
Firmware: ZV8 stock, roots.
I am not in the U.S. and not Verizon network respectively.
Help please.
Thank you.

Stock messaging app or something from the market? If it's not the stock messaging app, make sure you still have the stock messaging app installed.

I use stock messaging app. When I press "Send" - message status "Sending". After a few minutes I get notification - the message was not sent.
Do you have data service? 3g/4g? Iirc sms/mms, at least here in the states, use data to send but sms uses cellular service to receive. Other than that I'm at a loss. Idk.

Yes I have 3G mobile network.
I had a problem with 3G. When I turned on "Mobile Internet" 3G icon does not appear and the internet did not work.
After installing SetDNS program and select "Google DNS" problem resolved.
As I understand it you are saying need to enable the transfer of data to send a message. But does not work.
I am very sad
Are in any other ideas?
Have you tried a different sms app? go sms or handcent? HC has an option do all the sms duties the stock sms app should be doing. If all else fails, I can post the stock sms app and if you're rooted, then you can push it to your phone and see if something is wrong with your sms app.

Will you give me only APK (deodex) or .apk and .odex?
If apk and odex It will not be any problems? Because in my phone installed ZV8 stock
I also installed GingerVolt and BrokenOut firmware. Messages not sent.
I returned on zv8 stock
All right. I got you when I get home from work. Give me a few hours. I'll pm you the link and info on what you need to do. Hopefully it will work for you. Cheers.

Official Hangout v2 Update

Finally got mine just a little bit ago, did a search on our in the General Sub-Forum for any threads on this so figured I would start it. Pretty stable so far for me.
Are you able to send and receive MMS? I still can't..

This is the 3rd update since support for SMS and MMS. I have yet to be able to send or receive MMS on neither of my devices

haven't had any issues yet, slower than using stock app but still goes through for ME. Takes around 4-5 minutes to round trip send myself one and receive it.

Same here. It's pretty slow.
A good way to get any of the MMS to send almost as fast as it does in stock messaging app is to attempt to send the MMS and you can immediately make a call or AirPlane Mode or Mobile Data toggle it and then hang up or disable AirPlane Mode or Enable Mobile Data and it'll send much quicker. The phone call method only when on 3G though, not LTE
How is the interaction with google voice? I frequently dont receive messages using GV integrated on sprint.
Hangouts took control of the voicemail on my phone after I enabled SMS. Instead of getting a voicemail notification I received a text saying I had a message.

Were you able to figure out how to disable that sms voicemail? I'd rather use the visual voicemail that came with HTC One.
No, I had to undo sms with hangouts.

I was having the same problem. Download System Panel lite from the play store. Open GV then press back. Open System Panel and tap on GV in the list then tap exclude. This will stop the service from being flushed.
The problems i have with MMS is that it has to be on 3G to send. Otherwise (if i am on 4G or Wifi) it wont send.
I currently have a mod to enable MMS on wifi with the stock app, that also takes the compression off.
Also. It wont send SMS when roaming. I need to be on sprint.
Do you guys expreience this too? Or is it just all the mods i have affecting my phone?
Not Sure But..
Theres an Stock Messaging app in the play store that does SMS over Wifi.
Its basically the CM messaging app with some extra goodies.
Its called 8SMS
id supply a link but XDA isnt letting me post a link since im new. Sigh
Hangouts is terrible with mms/ group messaging
