Not receiving MMS with CM 4.0.4

I am unable to receive MMS since I started using CM 4.0.4 a few weeks ago. I can send it without a problem. My friend sent me 10 MMS, I only received 2. Is there any reason for this or is it just a problem with the ROM? Neither the stock Messaging app is getting it or ChompSMS. I have tried it with auto-retrieve both on and off.

Send yourself two mms messages

What are you saying?

Could be a network thing ... but to make sure send your self 2 mms and see if they come back .I think this resets something in your carrier's servers
just open your messaging app put your number in select a pic and send

Ive already tried that, I receive the message from myself. But anyone else, I dont receive or only receive every once in a while.

call up tmobile and have them check your settings on their end, don't tell them your running a custom rom ...

i would say just reflash since it was working and stopped, (off topic) my g1's accelerometer stopped working out of nowhere so i reflashed 4.0.4 and it worked like a charm. hope this does it for you

ill try reflashing then, I called up Tmobile, they just concluded it was my phone and wanted to send me a new one lol

LOL you shoulda taken them up on the offer

well, im 99% sure its because I am running a custom ROM in addition with the MMS.apk modded (not by me, just came in the ROM). Im flashing to 4.1999

lol i agree with b man

[Q] Viva incoming SMS issue and missed incoming calls

Hi, I am a recently registered user but a longtime "lurker" on the Opal section of xda.
I've bought my girlfriend an opal, roughly a year ago, and in three months or so she started complaining about some issues of the phone:
- From time to time she cannot send me SMSs, she just keep receiving the "cannot send sms" error
When this happens, she usually:
- Cannot establish an outgoing call, and more important,
- She cannot even receive any incoming call despite the mobile being connected to the network, and free, so that the caller just get a "no answer" while she doesn't even have neither a missed call report nor any ringtone deployed.
- Receive incoming SMSs
I've already tried to solve the problem in various different ways, including(of course) looking for help in existing threads, flashing a new rom on the phone resetting more than once.
I'm just stuck on a dead point, as of now.
Do you have an idea on how to solve such issues?
The only "fix" we found was to activate airplane mode then deactivate it to restart the network connection.
I think it is something related to the radio part of the OS but i couldn't find different radios to flash on.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Paperboy,
your problem is contained into 2 possibilities:
Your Network Setting (the SMS provider number)
Your OS (most propable)
I guess the best remedy is to use the official ROM (WM 6.1 Professional). You may have used unstable ROMs that caused such a mess.
Unfortunately, I merely found the Arabic ROM (It can be changed to English from (Settings>> Multilanguage Support).
WM 6.1 Arabic ROM
Hope it helps somehow.

Actually, I think it's neither of two.
I checked more than once the provider settings, including the sms service center. Actually if it is not correct, she'd never be able to send messages, while the "hangs" are just...random.
On the os side, i think it's not a matter of roms, mainly because i flashed as a consequence of months of frustration with the original rom.
Any other ideas?
btw, thanks for your advice!

it happens to me sometimes, when a message will just not go. i think its network/radio related, but it happens to me very less. i havent seen any radio's either.
sorry, i know, i could not help...

At least I'm not alone! Let's hope the gurus have a solution!

Hey there. I cant help but laugh, I had the exact same problem when i first got my phone and I used to think its a problem with the network but it isn't, if you haven't changed the stock OS/ROM, thats your issue, Flash an new ROM and it should resolve your problem.
(I recommend the pajerm RC3 ROM)
(Take care to backup all data, use outlook to backup all your contacts and stuff).
If that doesn't resolve your problem, post back. Best o' luck.

Actually I flashed that exact ROM, still experiencing issues, though.

Okay this issue is rather different, What is certain is that the issue is not on the software side. Either your phone is konk or its the service, check the same SIM on a different phone, see if you face the same issue, if you do then its your network (which I know You said is unlikely, but no harm in making sure right?) If on the other hand, the phone works perfectly fine, then you have a problem with your phone's hardware in which case you need to get it check and probably serviced, worst case, get the handset replaced (if its under warranty).
Best o' luck

Try THIS ROM and report...Has a variety of apps as add on...Hope it works for you.

I'll give a try!
Thank you anyway!

Dont lock your phone with the default windows lock.....(use S2U2)
I know its strange but this helps, and do restart your phone every third day....

Issue Not Solved, but figured out
The HTC opal is sort of incompatible with certain carriers around the world, and this issue does not apply to all opals, only some of them have an issue. For example my phone has this issue with Airtel in my country. The phone seems to work fine with every other carrier. I think I might have to change my damn network again!

is it possible to turn off the thread view in opal??pls hlp

[Q] SMS sometimes sent to an unknown/wrong number?! Extremely strange..

Hi,
this never happened to me before on my Legend.
I'm using handcent sms, but don't know if it has something to do with that, with the OS (used handcent on my Legend too) or my carrier provider.
When I write loads of sms with a friend, it happened already 3 times that suddenly I got a reply from someone completely unknown (unknown number), informing me about that he/she (wrongly) received this sms from me that should have been sent to my friend. My friend then didn't get that sms, although it's correctly listed in the appropriate sms "thread" for my friend's contact and NOT in the new thread created for this unknown number.
Has anyone experienced this before?
I think it's even more strange since this number isn't in my contacts and it's completely unrelated (not just a few numbers swapped, but a completely different carrier).
Has anyone experienced something like that?
This happened to me 2 times on stock Froyo and yesterday on Gingerbread..
Thanks for any help
Max

That's due to a bug with Android itself.
This was fixed with version 2.3.3, so if you get your self a GB(2.3.3) rom, all will be good.

That's strange, I'm already on gingerbread.. still it happened yesterday or the day before.

Handcent is your culprit!
Got myself into a LOT of trouble with the right msg going to the wrong person... LOL
get yourself chomp which is better in this aspect
or use the default app..

it wasnt the message center number... the problem was the sim card, i changed it and start's to work fine

Even still, i think all x8's have one common problem,
The SMS, after using and hsving my phone on stock rom for 6 months
the SMS functionality went, I fixed it and so on.
Then, two weeksago, my brothers white X8 lost its functionality, and its still not fixed.
And also a month ago, my friend lost his sms functionality, he fixed it but not completely.
Problem? And I checked the date of manufacturing on the phones and they were all different and spaced out
By a few months each.

[Q] JB SMS issue

Hi, having SMS issue with my SGS on Remics-JB 3.0.1 - I receive no SMS. When I put SIM in another phone SMS are finally received. Sending SMS is OK, i can send messages and they are delivered to addressee so it is not problem with SMSC. Only no SMS are delivered to my SGS although I test sending from web or another phone. I had this issue with all ICS and JB roms I tested, sometimes after flash it was all right and problem started later and sometimes the issue appeared right after flash. Got back GB and it was fine but now I tested JB again and the issue is still here, although I did all wipes and clears before and after flash, had made no restore via TB or Go backup. I am getting really anoyed from this, tried another SMS app and no result. Could you advise me what will help, I had an idea to try another modem but dont know which

I think so, in phone menu it is displayed, cant compare it now with box cause I am not at home. Flashing GB or Froyo resolves it and phone calls, logging in mobile network is OK.
Edit: Mean on ICS/JB phone calls and mobile network works, SMS sending works, SMS receiving NOT work.
On older android works everything.

its odd, looks like you have something installed to block out sms reception like this maybe ...which I doubt

IMEI does match with the one on the box. I use Root call blocker pro (some older version), SMS blocking is off but will try delete it and test if there isnt some bug, after that I will let know. Although it is essential app for me because of my work Dont know about another one like that which is function and reliable

So.. deleted Root call blocker pro, wiped cache, dalvik, fixed permission and.. OK It was some incompatibility of older version with JB.
Do you know some other call blocking app, which is reliable and blocks calls before phone start to ring? So caller wont hear ringing tone but "not aviable" or "busy" tone?

good you found the culprit, not too sure about other apps, but google is your best friend and helper, try it and you might get something that suits you
