Has anyone had success in using the Force MMS Connect option in Wanam on KitKat? It worked for me in 4.3, but it doesn't work at all for me on Mega's KitKat ROM.
I'm on a limited data plan, so I'd like to be able to have MMS work without enabling a data connection. Or if there is another method to get that to work, I'd be interested in hearing about it.
It used to work on my Aria ages ago, and it worked in CM11 on my Skyrocket, so it has been done before.

Since the first day I got my N1, I have configured 2 APNs, one for mobile data and the other one for sending/ receiving MMS
so I can safely disable the entire mobile data connection without hindering my phone from sending & receiving MMS
This method was working fine on vanilla Froyo ROM as well as CM6
But no matter how I try, I cannot get this method working on CM7.
I thought it was CM7 issue, so I flashed vanilla GB ROM, only to find that the method is not working either.
Do i miss anything? Now i have to manually enable my APN everytime i want to send/receive a MMS, that's really stupid...
Today I flash CM6.1.1, the dual APN method is working fine.
Does this have anything to do with Gingerbread? A bug or something?

Thanks for the reply.
A full wipe using teamsek's nuke-everything format file solves that problem
i guess some bits and odds are left when i use RA built-in full wipe, causing some problem
now it's working fine again
Loaded Scoot CyanogenMod 7 Alpha RLS1 on Vogue. The text and phone work but I can's get the data to work. Does anyone know why this would be? Thanks
Has anyone had this working on the Sprint network?
I didn't have a problem with it. Wasn't stable enough for me though.

Data works fine on the Sprint network, from what I understand there is a bug in GB that effects 3G data. You have to toggle the data connection after a phone calls (made, recieved, and missed) to restore the data connection. Personally, I automated this process using tasker to toggle the data connection based on phone idle.
I did not have to do that when running it. The only issues I had were stability (it crashed fairly often, especially if you tried to use the camera).
If anything, the data felt faster than Froyo. The market was especially fast.
Thanks guys. Has anyone been able to install this rom to a sd card? I have had success with all the other rom's I just can't get this one to take.
Dude this is sick. I just flashed on my Vogue,I am loving it. I can not believe the dev work being done on this platform. It is right there with what is being done on my D2 and my nook. Thanks again, you're making this fin to own again.

This has been happening on every android device afaik, tried on GT-P1000, on GT-S5660 and now on GT-S5830 (that's galaxy tab 7", galaxy Gio and galaxy ace).
On CM7 it's impossible to receive or send MMS unless you have an active internet connection which can't be wi-fi btw only data works. This is a major issue, data plans in Portugal are a pain in the ass and expensive but MMS service is free. Now, the MMS works IF you delete the data for internet however as soon as you reboot it stops working. Setting mms profile to * or default, mms also does the trick however 50% of the time also fails to work. On stock Rom it works just fine and this seems to be an issue with data profiles on the cm7 Rom itself.
Now for my question, anyone knows a way to fix this? I've googled for ages with no luck.
My carrier is Vodafone Portugal and the APN are configured using the APN Portugal app on the play store which works just fine on CM9 and Stock.
Thank you very much in advance for taking the time to read this and answering if at all.

I went the stock route as well lol I just like CM better than Stock. That workaround is for receiving MMS via wi-fi only isn't it? Or did I read that wrong?

Yes i think.
After updating to the 4.3 OTA update on my HTC One (originally Sense, but converted over), I can no longer use tethering on the device. The OTA update when through by itself and didn't require me to flash the ROM manually.
Other devices will connect to the HTC One's Wi-Fi connection perfectly fine, but can't access the internet. It was working fine before the update and I do have tethering on my Fido cell plan (I tried the sim in an iPhone 5 and the tethering works fine). All of the APN settings are the same from before the update. I've tried different APNs, but that hasn't worked either.
Anybody else seeing this issue with either their genuine Google Play edition or converted Sense HTC One running 4.3?

I'm on Rogers and it's working just fine for me. It's a converted HTC One by the way. I'm not running a true GE ROM. But it's a custom GE ROM. Sinless 3.1 To be exact.
I did have the exact problem you speak of before though. I simply wiped out all tethering settings and re did them. I've also switched to Bluetooth tethering instead. Seems to work a little better for me than the WiFi hotspot.

I've got an issue with tethering, nothing I do seems to work. It works on 4.2.2 though
I just posted this in the general GE talk, but I can't use my WiFi after using the native tethering.. its like the native program isn't restarting the WiFi drivers properly

Unfortunately, both Bluetooth and USB tethering don't work either.
Scratch that! Crazy. Last night I was tethering and right while I was Bluetooth tethering it just stopped. After an hour. And now I can't ever get it to work again. I guess I'm joining in the crowd that can't.

I'm unfortunately in the same boat. If I slap the SIM card in my other phones it can tether effectively, I'm guessing something changed in 4.3?

I just thought its crazy it was working for an hour and then all the sudden it stopped. I even pulled a logcat of when it doesn't work it and the dev can't see anything wrong. I'll even attach the logcat here to see if anyone can find anything. You'll have to look for the tethering labelled sections unfortunately i didn't trim it down.

I don't think you're crazy. I believe it's specifically to do with tethering while on LTE. I have it working on 3G/H+ without a problem
Sent from my One using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I couldn't get it working for either. I typically only use H+ and shut off my LTE. There is a fix though for this.

I recently took the plunge and updated to Cloudyfa's CloudyG3 2.0+ Rom and it is super awesome. There is a HUGE General Discussion thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=56644031
Here is the main Rom thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2783192
It is for all variants but it is a port of the GSM G3 rom. So some things aren't 100% on our VS980 roms. Just to be certain, everything is working for me but it takes a few tweaks, hence the point of this thread.
Here are the main issues off the top of my head:
Cellular doesn't work out of the box
You have to manually change it to LTE/CDMA. It took a few times to get this to work. I also use an app from the Play Store called "TellInfo" which lets you select "LTE/CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA" (which seems to work best for me). You also have to go into Settings > Tethering & Networks > Mobile Networks and select "Data Enabled" and "Data Roaming". The Network mode that seems to work best is "Global" mode.
I would advise that you check with your data plans to make sure you aren't being charged a crazy amount of money to roam on other networks. At this point (I travel), I haven't racked up any additional charges.
MMS doesn't work with the stock Messaging App
This requires downloading Textra or Hangouts for SMS/MMS handling. I like Textra.
Verizon Visual Voicemail doesn't work
I get a really weird text message when I get a voicemail. I assume this is trying to communicate to the Verizon Voicemail app. It doesn't work. I have to resort in manually checking voicemail the old fashion way. I am looking for better options
Other random facts
The keyboard no longer has arrow keys in the nav bar when typing. I've read the G3 rom keyboard is supposed to let you swipe the spacebar for left/right movement... but it doesn't work nor do I see any options.
WiFi File Sharing is gone from the G2. The G3 took this feature out, which is really really sad. A good alternative is "Samba Filesharing". Same thing except can't be launched from the Notification Shade
Otherwise, the rom is beautiful and pretty. The Xposed G3 Tweaksbox has tons of options for some really neat features. Everything else works the same/better then stock G2 software. I don't know if I could go back to the stock G2 rom after using this for a few weeks. Outside of the small issues listed above (SMS/MMS being the only semi-big one) it works and looks so good that it is a keeper.
Any additional tips and tricks to making the CloudyG3 rom work better on our VS980 Verizon LG G2s, please share!

Although I appreciate the time you spent working this up for people, its in the wrong section.
This really should be in the Verizon specific General section (maybe q&a?)
Just to add on a bit. Any time I flash one of his ports, I just change the build prop.
I use ROM toolbox pro, light would work, but the app you really need (that's built into it) is root explorer.
I change the tele device to 10, country to US (make sure its caps) and carrier to vzw, and I never have an issue with LTE sticking or anything of the sort.
Obviously you would change the country if you don't live in the US.
I haven't done any of these changes and if seems fine...

Thats weird I've been running this rom on my vs980 for a few weeks now. Everything worked perfect for me without having to mess with any settings at all. Also messaging worked without a hitch. Only thing i noticed while driving was the signal would say roaming sometimes. A reboot would correct this issue. Think it has something to do with the 3g to 4g hand off.

If it is roaming that means you're in a 3g area
I tried this for awhile on more than one occasion and every time, my sms would eventually take hours or days to receive. It was maddening. Did not matter what app I used, fixed apn settings, tried everything. It would work for a day or two then messaging totally fell apart.

Its cosmetic.
The reason it does it, is because the ROMs he builds are based off of international builds. So they don't cater to vs/ls980 as they use cdma
Edit: Same reason why the stock messengers won't send mms
---------- Post added at 07:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:05 PM ----------
Also, I just flashed the new cloudyg3 2.1, (I think?) and it looks like all the normal changes I make to the build prop are already done.
Country and tele device number.
I am having MTP issue. It refuses to go into MTP mode.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
I put build.prop fix in and it did not make any difference.
Otherwise, it appear to be pretty good. But battery drain seem a bit higher than stock.

Great to hear..I'll note that the G3 tweaksbox has an option to kill the roaming icon and then you can use the Verizon icons..perfect.
Since flashing this last night I've had no troubles. GPS, LTE, MTP, everything is working...

I gave up on VVM a while ago. Had to call Verizon and have them deactivate it. Now I just get a regular notification when I have a VM.
The only good alternative to actual VVM I've found is Google voice.
How does CloudyG3 perform compared to an AOSP rom on our G2? I'm running AICP right now and love the stock feel, but have some issues like GPS. Is the G3 UI that much better than AOSP?
com.android.phone keeps crashing on me.. basically making the phone useless on this rom. Anyone else have this issue? If so.. any luck fixing it?

Well my intention was to put it in the VS980 General Section. Im not sure if it got moved or where it currently is, as I am on mobile.
I am running 2.0 and heard 2.1 has the phone force close that prevents usage. It appears some people experience this while others dont. Could depend on previous rom.
Im in no rush to update. I'll check out the build prop changes. I have root explorer. Although I thought that this was the purpose of the aroma installer.
I have selected the Verizon icon set in G3 Tweaksbox but still see the occasional Roaming icon. Not a big deal. Still works fine.

I had the same exact issue so I was forced to downgrade to 2.0, and the dev didn't really seem to know how to fix it, although 2.0 is truly great on the VS980. Would be great to be able to run 2.1, although I was able to get it to work as soon as I changed it from global mode to any other mode that started to crash.
