Could be carrier issue. Stock ROM? If non-stock, try another ROM or flash to the stock and see if persists. If so, call carrier.

I also get this - I get the message to say that MMS download is beginning and then it goes away for a couple of hours until the message finally appears. This is a T-mobile UK vario III on the stock ROM and in a good 3G/HSDPA area.
Not seen many other people with the problem though.

I'm on T-Mobile in the UK and get the same problem, I have noticed it seems to be even worse if activesync is working.
It can take up to a couple of hours to receive or send an MMS. I'm running the phone unmodified straight out of the box.

I am also on Tmobile UK network but have not noticed any significant delay sending or receiving MMS or SMS. I think the problems are more likely to be network or server related.
Just tested sending a VGA sized photo from my Kaiser to my wifes SE K610 by MMS and replying and in both cases the message was sent and received in under 2 minutes.
I have had SMS go missing for hours at a time in the past. The record for me is an SMS sent at the stroke of midnight on New Years Eve which did not arrive until 4pm New Years Day. I put this down to network/server congestion. On the rare occasions I am unable to send an SMS or MMS straight away I have found cycling the Radio off and on sorts the problem out.
It can be dificult to pinpoint reasons for delays but the message may be delayed at any point between Senders Phone, Cell Tower, Carrier Network, Message server, Gateway, Receivers Message Server, Carrier Network, Cell Tower and Phone.

Unable to Receive MMS (Sending is OK)

I've been having problems receiving MMS messages. (Not receiving ANY MMS messages) For a long time I thought it was a minor network issue cause I don't do MMS messaging much. But last night my wife tried to send me 2 photos that she took with her phone and she sent the messages both to my cell and to my email address. I received the emails but never received anything on my phone. I tried sending her an MMS and it worked just fine.
So to sum up:
Sending MMS...OK
Receiving MMS...WhAt?
I'm running Stock Rom 6.1 (-Bloat)

Noob Here-Same Problem
I've got an AT&T Tilt. I wasn't having any problems at all sending or receiving MMS until I upgraded (yeah right) to WM6.1. Now even with the correct settings from the AT&T HTC support page, I still can't get MMS from anyone. I did do the hard reset to remove the bloatware from my phone, but other than that, no tweaks, just a stock ROM. Is there something I may have inadvertently removed that I needed? Any help will be appreciated.
M.M.

MMS Failed?

I dont know if there's something wrong with my phone.
Because everytime I send a MMS.
It says "Message Sent"
But then they sometimes receive it.
But most of the time they dont.
...

Just for clarification, is it an issue of the recipient not receiving it at all or not being able to open the mms? I'm also with att and can't count how many times I've sent mms only to hear my buds tell me they either couldn't open it or had no audio, which is very ****ing annoying when you play the sent message and it plays as intended. From all the fixes I've found on xda, still having this issue from the hermes days and wondering if apple is not so crazy for nixing mms for email; at least the email method is consistant. If your recipients aren't receiving at all though, there are alot of factors involved; your mms settings, recipient has no internet...

[Q] Not receiving all texts

I get some texts but I'm finding more and more that people respond to my texts and I never get them. I dont have Advanced Task Killer but I do use autokiller. Is it that? Could it be some other program or maybe my ROM? This is driving me crazy.

I have the same problem with mine. I've checked my friends' text logs to confirm that they're not being mean and lying their way out of not texting me, and my phone has the most sporadic SMS reception and sending. I'll receive doubles of some texts, and fail to receive others at all. Friends only appear to receive 1/3 of texts I've been sending, and this is under both Apex and S7.

I am running Apex also and I even deleted Handcent, didnt fix problem.

Lumia 822 not sending texts

I have a lumia 822 and every time I try to text, I get a failed message.
I get to make calls and even get HSPA 3G data, but I just can't get texts to work
any help?

If you're doing anything outside of normal messages (long ones, multiple recipients, images, funny characters, etc.) it may be trying to use MMS instead, which sometimes requires some configuration. Check the Messaging settings to see if it's using MMS instead of SMS. Beyond that, try sending a very simple message to just one person. Better yet, have one person send a simple message to you, then try to reply (if you get it).
SMS uses a mechanism inherent in the way modern cell phones work. You don't even need a data connection for it; if you can send and receive calls, you can (in theory) send and receive texts.
If it's really not working, I'd suggest taking it back to the store; there's something wrong.

I read that it's an issue with the phones, but some have reported that there IS in fact a fix for it, was hoping someone here knew.
I can receive texts no problem but sending always fails.

What carrier are you using? I would contact them first, I had a similar issue with my Tmob 8X.

Any update on this issue? I recently switched to SimpleMobile from AT&T and the text messages are not getting sent. Incoming messages work fine!
