MMS not working? look here!

my mms wasNT working either. i had installed cyanogen 4.0.2... it worked at first, but a couple days later it just stopped and got pretty random, but mostly just plain not working. so i came back here and looked around and this is what i found:
1.
""It seems I may have fixed my MMS, as I've just been able to receive 3 in a row when in the past, I didn't receive ANY. I went into the "Mobile Networks" settings on my phone, then went to "Network Operators," and selected "Select automatically," which said it "registered" me. After doing this, I'm able to receive MMS messages. I have no idea WHY, but I am..""
2.

Try sending yourself a MMS first and see if you receive it.
And also check your apn setting.

If you're on Rogers Network, check if your apn is the same as mine

EDIT: Nevermind, I just saw that you said your apn settings are correct.

Yup I have tried sending myself a MMS, it won't send. Thanks for being patient guys.

Ive been having the same issue with my captivate ever since I flashed ICS on my phone. I started with AOKP Build 27, and it hasnt worked since until I flashed Milestone 5 of AOKP saturday night. After restoring all my apps after flashing Milestone 5, my MMS worked for the first time in ages. I charged my phone, went to sleep, woke up, and my MMS no longer works. I have the correct APN settings as well. I think it has something to do with the Data Network being enabled or disabled upon startup, or something. Im not really sure.

I figured out how to fix my MMS issues, it may work with yours as well.
Try enabling both Data, and Data Roaming and sending yourself an MMS.
When I have them disabled, I cannot send or receive MMS. When enabled, MMS works fine.
Give it a try

Having the same problem. I just flashed Milestone 5 on saturday, and I haven't been able to send or receive MMS. Everything else works fine (apart from the screen not automatically turning on when I get a text). I wiped, re-installed milestone 5, and still no fix.

My screen turns on when I get a text, its just that when the screen turns back off, my captivate buttons dont stay lit to notify me i have an unread text message. They use to stay on with build 28, but ever since then they havent worked.
As for MMS, did you try my suggestion turning on Data Mode and Data Roaming?

Yes, I did. I tried doc's rom, and a few other ICS roms as well. Nothing works for MMS. Might flash back to a GB rom until the issue gets resolved.

I got MMS working. Go to your apn settings, and then hit the very left touch botton on the phone (looks like paper), and reset apn settings. Fixed mine. Even on original messaging app.

Resetting APN settings didnt work for me. I still have to Enable both Data Mode and Data Roaming to send MMS.

Hmm. I'll tell you exactly what I did.
-Downloaded Handcent
-Tried sending a pic to a buddy
-Message failed to send
-Uninstalled Handcent
-Went into APN, and selected "Rogers"
-Changed the MNC under rogers to 702
-Rogers APN deleted itself
-Reset default APN settings
-Re-Selected Rogers
My unsent MMS' suddenly sent.
---------- Post added at 11:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:32 PM ----------
Hmm. It's almost like sending MMS is "unstable". Sometimes, it wills send a picture, but a minute later, if I try to send another, It won't send. This is aggravating.

I tried everything suggest, I'm still having issues sending or receiving. Someone MUST know this issue, it changes from ROM to ROM. Some roms work some don't! I'm on RemICS right now and still can't get it to work. Argh!

[Q] Weird Net10 internet issue

I have an unlocked Bell Atrix HD and I'm using it with the NET10 AT&T SIM. I followed the NET10 APN setting instructions and it told me to use the following:
Name: net10
APN: att.mvno
Proxy: proxy.mvno.tracfone.com
Port: 80
MMSC: mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: 66.209.11.33
MMS Port: 80
I tried those settings and had no internet and no MMS. I removed the proxy and MMS proxy. I also tried removing the port for internet and MMS. Neither combination worked. I double checked my phone was unlocked by doing volume down + power and it says 'unlocked' on a black screen with white letters. I start trying all types of settings until I gave the T-Mobile APN a try (wap.tracfone). Internet worked immediately. MMS still doesn't work. I tried the T-Mobile and AT&T MMS settings with no luck. I did a speed test while tethering and it says AT&T Wireless Network Services so I know the SIM is for AT&T, plus the APN settings default to AT&T if I do restore default settings. I'm confused why the only APN that works is the T-Mobile 'wap.tracfone' one.
Anyone have good knowledge about this who is able to help me out?
I called NET10 and lets just say I have nothing to say about that..lol
Thanks,
Alex

Try taking your first proxy setting out (leave blank the one just under "APN") leave your MMS proxy as-is,
MMSC Should be http://mmsc.Cingular.com (type in the http:// that you left out)
For "MCC" use 310
For "MNC" use 410
See if that works for you

Have you guys set the APN type. My atrix HD wasn't getting data until I set it to the same as the stock att one except for DUN. After doing that and a reboot. It worked flawlessly.
note: the speed test app will not work for some reason. Only upload will register. If u want to run a speed test install flash for JB and go to speedtest.net.

[Q] Unlocked Samsung Captivate won't download MMS, even with the carrier correct APN,

Hello,
I have a Samsung i896 Captivate, which was originally with Rogers. I purchased it from a cell store second hand and unlocked. I am with Virgin Mobile. I have spoken to them about my issue that the MMS will not download. They say they're down loading but then never finish and eventually expire. Even as I added the APN according to the instructions from VIrgin, nothing has changed. Still not down loading MMS. They say that because the phone was not originally with Virgin they can't do anything about it. Is there anything I can do to get my MMS downloading even with my unlocked phone??? Please help and thank you for reading.

When you entered your APN, did you delete all the others first?
Being unlocked doesn't change much other than you can use it on any carrier. Did you check with them to see if they locked your MMS?
Also, MMS can only be downloaded on data (can't use wifi).

Thank you for your reply BWolf56! So I haven't checked with Rogers to see if they lock their MMS as they are not my carrier. (they were the original phone owners carrier) If I call them do you think they'll assist me even if I am not thier client?
When I entered the APN there were no previous APN entered so none to delete.
I turned off the Wifi and then turned my phone on and off, just to see if that made a difference...I don't even know what to expect will happen if I do find a fix. Will my pending (NOT expired) MMS be able to be down loaded?
Would you have any other suggestions as to how to fix this problem? I really want to receive these messages before they expire and am getting kind of desperate. Thanks again.

Locked MMS would come from your current carrier so you would have to ask them.
Although, if you were on Wifi this entire time, it's normal it didn't work. As I mentioned earlier, you need to be on your data (3G/H) to download MMS. You should be able to redownload the pending ones, just hold over the MMS and hit redownload.

Out of curiosity, did you set two APN's? By the looks of it, there are two for Virgin - one for default and one for mms. I had the worst time doing a Rogers apn setup and eventually had to go to the default one and put default,text,mms,...etc for the type. Virgin might work the same. If you already have figured your problem out, then sorry for a late reply.

There should be 2 APNs indeed: Rogers' look like this:
Main APN:
Name: Roger #1
APN: internet.com
MCC: 302
MNC: 720
APN type: default,supl,mms
APN protocol: IPv4
Bearer: Unspecified
Leave everything else as is.
MMS APN:
Name: Rogers MMS
APN: rogers-core-appl1.apn
MMSC: http://mms.gprs.rogers.com
MMS proxy: 10.128.1.69
MMS port: 80
MCC: 302
MNC: 720
APN type: mms
APN protocol: IPv4
Bearer: Unspecified
Leave everything else as is.
There's also a LTE one and couple others but aren't needed on our phone.
So yeah, Virgin should have something similar to those. And of course, gotta be on data (3G)

Let's hope that's all it is, I couldn't help but notice that the reference was "APN" instead of "APN's". I'm just finishing work on a Captivate and happen to have a Virgin acct so I'll try it shortly and see

Oh my. I am so sorry, I didnt even get close to trying my virgin acct on the captivate I was working on. The customer was hovering to get it back, so sorry for misleading. How did you make out ElleJay? did you finally get your unit going?

i had a similar problem a few months back and sporadically since. i talked to rogers and was advised to go into apn type and edit it to say - internet,mms instead or default,supl,mms
try it and exit then go back in and make sure it stuck. for some reason it takes more than one try sometimes.
hope that helps

Remember, they bought with rogers as original, but are trying to setup virgin...but yeah, the overall consencus is that they may be missing an apn setting and "of course, gotta be on data (3g)" lol. Now just more concerned as to whether its up and running.

Moto x MMS problems on ATT?

So, quick backstory:
got my moto x, loved every part of it except the battery life which was in my opinion pretty sub par. Did some looking around, lots of reports of 4.4 ruining battery life for some people.
So I flashed 4.2.2 (the first OTA with camera I think, file name was ATT_XT1058_4.2.2-13.9.0Q2.X-116-X-17-54_CFC_1FF.xml.zip).*
I god damn love this thing now, battery life is superb and everything else is just as good (cept I miss the 4.4 launcher with the fade out nav bars, but oh well).
However today I discovered a problem. I can't send or receive pictures (more generally anything mms it seems). I've got signal (LTE, more specifically), and SMS/calls work fine.
Tried having a look at the APN settings, but it wont let me edit them anyway, they're greyed out.
That more or less leaves me out of ideas, anyone familiar with this problem?
*I had a hell of a time getting the flash to work. rsdlite 6.1.5 kept giving me an error "unknown adb command: getvar". some googling led to deleting this line in the .xml file
<step operation="getvar" var="max-download-size" />
after which it worked, but then rsdlite got to the "rebooting" phase and hung there. the phone rebooted and was working fine and like hey dude set me up we're good, so I just unplugged it and went.

wondering if maybe taking the 4.4 OTA update would fix it, though if it causes my battery life to suffer again that'll suck.

If the APN settings are wrong you can create a new one rather than changing the old one.

I'm using the T-Mobile variant on AT&T and had trouble sending/receiving MMS when I first got up and running. Had 4G LTE, everything worked, except MMS.
Create a new APN setting as the previous poster suggested. Could be all you need to do is change the MMS port to '8080' instead of '80'. These are my APN settings that work for me:
Name: AT&T PHONE
APN: phone
Proxy: Not Set
Port: Not Set
Username: Not Set
Password: Not Set
Server: Not Set
MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS Proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS port: 8080
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication Type: Not Set
APN type: default,supl,mms,hipri
APN protocol: IPv4
APN roaming protocol: IPv4
Bearer: Unspecified
MVNO type: None
Like I said, with these settings, I have no issues with MMS and get 4G LTE.

Thanks for the advice guys. Sadly I can't seem to do...anything actually, related to apns. The existing ones are greyed out when I click on them, and while I can make a new one, it won't save, I click save and nothing happens, back button won't work and when I go back into the menu via settings its not there
Any suggestions?
Edit: I made one with a bogus name and then it let me save it, I've since changed it to match the settings offered here (thank you) but still no dice

So turns out hangouts has its own APN settings menu for MMS. Changed the port in there to 8080 and now it works.feel kinda silly bit hey at least its good now lol.
Thanks guys

Awesome man. That was one of the first tricks i tried -- just changing the port to 8080. Once you create a new APN setting, there's a radio button you have to highlight on the right side to select it. it's kind of hard to see, if you can even see it at all. Perhaps that's why you thought you couldn't save it? Either way, glad you found an alternative fix for yourself within hangouts.
