Problem with MMS receiving. - Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G

I've looked through the threads and it seems like the problem hasn't been addressed yet so..... when someone sends me a mms with my data on I get it with no problem but when my data is off the mms download button or the message doesn't show at all. This really annoys me because most of the time I don't know that someone is sending me a mms.

I'm a little confused when you turn data off you cant receive messages? You need data to receive messages. Or is it when using wifi

You don't need data on to receive SMS. With some ROMs when your data is off and you get an MMS it turns data on, downloads the message and shuts back off. Not sure why it doesn't work here.

You need data on to receive MMS messages, aka pictures or long (3pages+) messages.

I'm totally aware of this but on stock Rom the mms would sit in the inbox waiting to be downloaded with data off when I have auto retrieve turned off, but on custom roms the download button doesn't appear like how I stated above

I don't think the auto retrieve works on Gingerbread roms, only the 4.1 roms and some of the 4.2 roms.

A slight observation. Mrs sent me a text messafe earlier today, it came through as an MMS . No pictures or such included.. Anyone care to comment>?
Was it a long message? I know for some reason samsung set long messages as mms. In the tmobile thread one of the devs posted a mod to fix it.

Yes it was a longish sort of message. Will I get charged MMS rates then?

Not much of a texter so only have the 200 text pack, anyways. Not the end of the world.

Not really a workaround but at least you can get a warning if you enable this.

It was my guess as I assume AT&T wouldn't send else a phone not capable of receiving mms, especially considering how much $$ they beat you for them.
I havent changed anything on my phone, whenever I try to send a photo to my wife via text I have to send it twice??? Data problem or phone problem??

Maybe that's the problem. I'll disable it and try. Thanks.
Edit.
That was the problem. I disabled Adblocker, and now all is well thanks!

Was there no option to configure ad blocker?

i had trouble sending MMS and even text sometimes. full stuck no mms. samsung better fix this basic function. i am not sure if its a bug of the older firmware either. people that did not downgrade would have to tell us if there having problems as well
So can we have our cake and eat it too? Can you have adblocker and send mms somehow?

Hi
Could anyone help me receive messages on my gear from my note 3?
I did all settings in gear manager on note 3. I could receive all ( calls, emails etc) but no messages.
Is there any other setting I must do before?
Thx a lot

Sometimes not that easy. I've had messages checked under notifications in settings. And I haven't received 1 SMS notification since day one. I only use stock SMS app.
Kinda. Annoying
And kinda gave up awhile ago. Just like my svoice won't work. Tried everything. Can't find others with issue.

if your screen is on, the sms won't go to the watch. You need to either check if there are wakelocks or install modded message apk (search in this forum) that doesn't turn screen on when you receive a message

Perhaps your baseband got corrupted? Try to Re-flash just the modem through Odin.

Sending mms is sending an sms with a link to the mms file, so something's wrong here. If you can send an sms with a link you can send an sms without a link.

Anyone having MMS issues in the last few hours?

Just in the last 2 hours or so I can't receive MMS images at all. On WIFI, on LTE, on 3G, nothing. Data otherwise is working fine,.
I have actually had mms and text issue since getting the phone. Also had it on my old HTC one that had a sense 6 Rom. Very slow to load and always get sending errors. Hopefully fixed soon cause I use sms and mms a lot. If anyone has any info to fix please sure. Right now I am pure stock.

First thing this morning have one that still won't download. This seems to be a big problem. But as I said before I had this with my other one (m7) so I am thinking software issue maybe
