For a while I've been having sending MMS messages with my Bionic. After searching high and low for solutions I found the solution some have suggested of deleting the telephony.db file and restarting the phone. This works every time, but the issue is that the telephony.db file is rebuilt on the reboot and over time something happens and the MMS messages stop working again. So something is happening to the telephony.db file that is causing problems, but I have no idea what's happening. I have tried to find someone who has investigated this issue deeper, but I have found nothing and I'm desperate. Does ANYONE have any ideas on what I can do to troubleshoot this problem?

I'm having problems sending messages in my gmail. I have no problem reviving but when I try to send my messages r stuck in the out box no matter how many times I refresh my gmail. I was wondering if anyone ran into this problem and found a solution. I would like to fix this without a wipe and reflash.

Tried rebooting? How about wifi?
Yup tried revolting any I get the same problem whit or without WiFi.
Did you find a solution? I realised this morning, that I can't send mails through Gmail from my G1 anymore. Already tried rebooting, but that didn't solve it. I got no wifi at hand, but will test this evening and post my findings then.
Don't mind it. Just found a solution myself. Just cleared Gmail Apps' data and everything is back to normal. Perhaps that will work for you too, if you did not find a solution yet.
Yep,
I had a problem with sending and updating what was new and was unread on the website. Clearing the gmail storage and the other gmail email cache fixed it right up.
Clearing the gmail storage/data worked for me as well but the solution only worked for a day and then I had to do it again. I will have to see how long it lasts this time around. Does anyone know the reason why this is occurring? While the above is technically a solution, it appears to only be a quick fix. If we can figure out what is causing the problem then it won't happen again.
I can tell you that it happened to me for the first time when I upgraded from Cyanogen 3.6.8.1 to 3.9.8. I downgraded and still had the problem and that's when I cleared the storage. I really don't think it had anything to do with the upgrade/downgrade especially since I used a Nandroid restore which put a stable version back on my phone.
Just my 2 cents.
Well, somewhere I read that this happened to someone after updating / installating an app using the send intent. I am not sure whether it was at that time I updated Bluex, but it may be.
I dwnloaded bluex a lil ago maybe that might be it I'm going to unistall and see
Maybe, but I have to say that I only had those problems once and they did not reoccur for me.
Also I did not have that problem when running the official ROM. But I only had Bluex for a short while on the official, because receiving files made me root my phone.
Any updates on this issue? I don't have Bluex, fyi. However, I occasionally have this problem, and only clearing the Gmail storage fixes it... for a short time anyway. It's very frustrating, considering this is a Google phone and that's my primary email. I need to be able to send my emails quickly without having to constantly clear the storage...especially since I have 75+ mb free on the device and hundreds of mb free on my ext3 partition. As best as I can tell, this also affects synchronizing with Google's servers (obviously)... so if I delete an email on my phone or pc, it doesn't show that change on the other device.
Hello,
I have recently begun to experience a major problem with my G1 running the latest builds of Cyanogenmod (currently 4.2.11 but I have had the problem with the last few versions). What happens is that for some reason some apps force close right when I attempt to start them (Google Voice, or any app that has a camera running when it opens) and other apps can not connect to the internet. When I open apps like Pandora or Wapedia it says "A network error occured" or "Could not connect to the servers."
The weirdest part is that not all apps are affected. I can still access the internet through the default browser, and the gmail app. Also the default camera and camcorder apps do not force close and work perfectly. In addition these problems do not arrise for some time after a reinstall.
I have wiped and reinstalled different versions and even started over flashing an HTC update and then returning to a cyanogenmod version. I have wiped all the partitions on my SD card for apps2SD and recreated them. However due to the nature of the problem I have guessed it is some problem with Apps2SD but I cant figure out what it is. I have run the fix_permissions script, and attempted to remove/rebuild the market/app cache.
If anyone knows anything about how to fix this or has experience this before themselves any help would be really awesome. If any more information is needed to help diagnose this problem I will gladly post it.
Thanks again and sorry for the wall of text.
Sorry for self-bumping my post but I would really like some help because I have done everything I know of to fix the problem and looked around the internet for help but I haven't found anything similar to my problem.
Thanks
Im having this problem too and i have no idea what to do about it lol
Ok im on Damage control v1.0 as it seems like its the only ROM that cricket right now accepts for sending/receiving MMS. BUT my problem is now when i attach or do a MMS it makes the file down to about 20kb losing all its quality. sent it to my email and it wasnt even worth saving.
Is there a fix to stop this automatically or a workaround? i tried to search but i got alot of stuff for th G1..sorry if i didnt see anything else.
Appreciate the help!
Hi, everyone. When I turn on my wifi, it seems like it tries to scan; but it does not find a network, even if I'm just a few feet away from the router. This only began this morning, and I don't get any error message. What makes things worse is that if the screen goes to sleep with the wifi on, then the phone becomes completely unresponsive and I have to pull the battery.
I've tried several things already, and even factory reset and flashing back to root did not help. Has anybody else experienced this problem?
BTW, I'm this happened when I was on Continuum 6.1, if this helps.
I'd really appreciate any guidance you could give me. Thank you so much, in advance.
Could be your WiFi antenna some how got damaged, you may try to get a replacement
just my 2 cents

Here's a free app from the Market that might get you back in business, 'FXR Wifi fix and rescue'
It's helped clear up a couple of issues I've had in the past. Hope it helps!
If you are rooted:
Delete file data/wifi/bcm_supp.conf
Delete file /data/misc/dhcp/dhcp_list
reboot the device and it will create these files again and you will have to enter your WiFi password again in order to connect.
Hope this helps..

I've been having some wifi issues with my phone as well and haven't been able to nail down the problem yet. I tried looking for the files you mentioned but none were there. What I did find was:
/data/misc/dhcp/dhcpcd-eth0.lease
/data/misc/dhcp/dnsmasq.leases
and didn't even have a data/wifi folder, let alone the bcm_supp.conf file.
Do I need to manually add these files or copy them from somewhere? I've rebooted, I've deleted all wifi networks then rebooted again, still the phone doesn't generate these files. Any ideas?
It would be helpful to know what Rom you're currently using. If it's any of the Gingerbread Roms it is a known issue. Usually toggle airplane mode remedies it.

Probably the permission issue?? Can you do the chown to the /data folder?? I am just guessing..

I'm using CM7 build 57, Glitch kernel v11, and root explorer. Not sure how much more permissions I can get.
Also in reply to Rhiannon, how does putting it in airplane mode help? Curious
TL;DR
Upgraded Android to latest on T-Mobile, only SSL connections load. Also can't send MMS messages. Factory reset after the upgrade, still having issues. No idea what causes it, but rebooting the phone sometimes makes the issues go away for a while (might as well be running Windows). The issues seem to happen at random but all happen at once and don't go away once they start.
I have an odd issue that after a little bit of Googling, I haven't been able to find anything on (outside of app developers forgetting the internet permission in their manifest file). I held off on upgrading my phone from 5.0.1 AOC9 for a long time because I had rooted it right after the release and I just never got around to it when others confirmed they could root newer versions. Everything was working until I decided to use Smart Switch to upgrade from AOC9 to the latest 5.1.1 DOJC. After the upgrade I used Odin to flash TWRP and Unikernel for root and it worked fine for a few hours until I noticed I could no longer send MMS messages (receiving them works perfectly fine). I also noticed certain apps would tell me I had no network connection and I knew this was wrong because apps like Facebook were still working perfectly fine on 4G and my WiFi. Eventually I started clicking links from Facebook and noticed some would load and others wouldn't. It took a few links to notice that anything that wasn't loading over an SSL connection would give the message "This site can't be reached. $SITE refused to connect. ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED"
After all of those issues started happening I finally got pissed enough to factory reset, forgot about FRP and had to factory reset again using Smart Switch. I flashed TWRP/Unikernel again and I'm right back to having the issues. Has anyone ever come across anything like this before? I'm getting frustrated enough that I might just swap out the sim and use my G3 for a while until I can sort this out. If there is any kind of log I can post that will help I can post that as well. I tried using adb logcat while attempting to open a site that fails, but I didn't see anything that looked useful. Just calls to my keyboard and chrome opening.
EDIT: Completely forgot to try pinging. I am able to ping any normal HTTP site from a terminal emulator. They're all reachable from my phone. I came across a post from a Comcast customer with a similar issue, although not for Android specifically. The work around was to connect to a VPN service, so I also tried this. Still no luck.
