I've been having trouble being able to download incoming MMSs on my One. My APN settings seem to be correct, and my data is working fine. I'm able to receive the notification for the incoming MMS, but when I tap download, it returns a Generic Network Failure message. I've already tried clearing the cache for the app, but had no luck in fixing the problem. CID: BS_US001 running on ATT

Thank you so much! I was having the exact same problem and now it's fixed. I never would have figured out it was adblock plus.

I have always had mms issues on gingerbread, 90% of the time it will not work. This is not carrier related as i have tried every method and various apns. It must be 2.3.3 related as I have tried a dozen roms as well. Is there a fix for this??
Cheers

what doesn't work. sending or recieving?
Works ok here on optus and JVH custom rom. Seems like theres a bit of delay in recieving them though.
Sending it just keeps trying to send. Receiving seems fine

Normally the best way to get this configured is through requesting the automatic configuration message from the provider via an sms.

Not always available, for instance Virgin are unable to send to my SGS, the only thing they recommend is you send one to yourself first.
I have had issues and it took me a while to resolve, it is nearly 99% down to the APN settings you use, my latest GB install stuffed me at first, there were NO APN settings in there !! had me foxed for a while before I remembered and checked.

True. Easiest way. But as the above poster said... Not all providers do that.
Almost certainly an apns problem. Use Google to find the right apns for your provider and make sure your mms apns is set properly.
I had a similar problem, fixed it by adding HTTP:// before the URL in the mms apns.

I remember this bug a while ago on older devices.. google it, its on the web somewhere. It's either something in the phone settings or clearing data for an app

Not sure if this a known issue or not but I've been using Hangouts as my default SMS Messaging app and intermittently, when I send an SMS to my contacts, they're reporting that they're getting them twice. I've tested it out my texting myself and got the same problem. It's intermittent though as sometimes it'll just send one SMS. Hangouts is the only Messaging app that's installed. The recipients I'm sending to are using non Android devices (iPhones & Windows Phones).
I then downloaded another SMS app and switched over to that to find out if Hangouts is really the culprit and so far no one has reported that they've had 2 SMS messages from me. I've even text myself and got the SMS once. For now I've disabled Hangouts completely.
I've had the same issue as well. I also receive two of the same SMS from my contacts. I'm not sure if its on T-Mobile's end though.

I have T-Mobile and I do get multiple SMS as well as some of my MMS don't even come through. It says that it has 'an error in downloading'. Eh
I have straight talk AT&T Sim card but don't get the double SMS issue. I can't download MMS though.

Are your APN's correct? You aren't trying to download them on Wi-Fi, right? If so, that doesn't work.
Anyway, double message sending/receiving is almost always a network issue.
APN is correct, I've tried downloading MMS over WiFi and mobile and neither work. A lot of people have this problem on straight talk. Seems like only solution is buying a new Sim card and transferring the number.

I'm on the Three UK network and I got them to send me another Simm card already but still got the same issue.
I've been texting all day and so far no one has reported getting double texts from me.

This is my wife's new X. She wanted a freaking Iphone but I talked her into this. Just some color here.
She now has a notification in the tool bar that reads "messages unable to send." If you pull it down, it brings you to the general text app. There is nothing that tells her WHAT messages didn't send. It's driving her crazy. Even to the point of her going to Verizon (which she despises) who were, of course, zero help. Made her delete all her texts and it's still happening. All her texts read as sent and if you exit the text app, the notification goes away for a few seconds then reappears.
Need to know if any of you guys have an idea of why this is happening and if so, how to stop it.
She'll turn that thing into an iphone by the end of the week if I can't figure it out.
Thanks gang.
Does she have an active mobile data connection? I think she needs that to text on Verizon, wifi may not be sufficient.

Anyone else have a guess? It's driving her nuts.
Are her messages actually being sent and received?
Remove her sim and reinsert.
Google the Verizon APN settings and confirm they are correct in network settings.
Try a different texting app. I'd recommend Textra or hangouts.
If none of that works reply here I'm sure there will be more help incoming.
I sometimes have this problem when sending pictures to iPhones, it will constantly fail to send. Rebooting usually solves it

Have you tried Settings > Apps > swipe R to L to get to All > Messaging > Force stop > Clear cache > Clear data. Restart and try another message. Or as others have suggested, try another messaging app. I really like 8SMS and have set that as my default messaging app and set Active Notifications to show 8SMS notifications by default.
Switched to Chomp SMS and it's fine.
Thanks all.

I had the same problem before the 4.4.3 update. It was picture mail that wouldn't send. Our APNs have a dedicated MMS APN that needed to be configured for my mvno . once I configured the APN I rebooted and it sent whatever picture mail I had been trying to send out.

A lot of people actually seem to be having trouble with SMS after the 4.4.3 update. It generally seems to be because they've disabled the app "messaging" and for whatever reason, they can't reenable it after the update.
It doesn't make much sense though, because texting apps can't rout messages through other apps anymore.

I had the problem before the update and after I updated it was already fixed but it was because my service provider and I figured it out before the update

I'd been getting the unsent SMS every couple days on 4.4.2. I used 'Permission Friendly Apps' to find what had 'Send SMS' permissions. I don't use Skype from my phone, so I uninstalled it. I also disabled SMS and turned off the 'Improve Hangouts' option in Hangouts. After about a week, still no mysterious empty message.
It's not proof any of that fixes anything, but may be worth a try?

After updating to Lollipop, my AT&T S4 Active quit sending and receiving MMS.
Spent an hour on the the phone with Straight Talk to no avail. They say everything is right on their end and everything is set correctly on my end.
Is anyone else having this problem? Does anyone have a solution?

Did you check the APN settigns? Default Network type?
I did. I went through numerous checks and changes of the APN with Straight Talk support to no avail.
The only thing that has changed is going to Lollipop.
(I have even tried switching to several different messaging apps- AT&T messaging, Google messenger, and Go SMS Pro.)

Did you try clearing cache/dalvik in stock recovery? And why does your signature say SM-G900A, I assume you have the i537 as well? (Sorry just gotta filter out the obvious solutions til we can get down to the bottom of this).
I have and use the s5 (900a) and my wife uses the s4active (537).
I did try wiping the Dalvik and cache to no avail.

Hello I too have been having the issue with MMS since upgrading to lollipop, it will show pending and not send. Now if i turn on my wifi then it will send, and thats the only way i have figured it out on my phone. I have cricket service and when calling in to ask about this issue, they advised me thats its only on this phone that wifi is needed to send or receieve mms. I tried removing Google messenger but that didnt work either as well as deleting cache in recovery. Is anyone else having this issue on this phone.
I have the International version and have had a similar problem for a while. If I try to send or receive MMS my mobile (cell) data stops. I have to turn if off and on again and wait to get to wifi to see the picture. Did you have a problem with cell data crashing aaronkemp172460?
I also use Google Messenger as my sms app, maybe I need to ditch it.
