All-
I've been trying to get my verizon APN settings to save in google hangouts to no avail.
The default set are all spring/metropcs. I believe this is due to the app #mirrorenabler which allows you to use chromecasts screen casting feature from a phone. I have tried disabling that app and its effects, but that didn't correct the issue.
I tried editing an existing APN settings, and when I save it, it disappears.
Anyone have the slightest in what's going on here?
Thanks!

I have this same issue on my Vzw Note 2. All the APNs in Hangouts are for Sprint/PCS and if i try to add or edit them, they delete as soon as i hit save. Restore to default does not help either. The system level APNs are all vzw. I've found where someone said you have to decompile hangouts, edit the apn file, then recompile. Surely this isn't the only way to fix this?

same problem here on my S3, Android 4.4.2 (ND8)
EDIT: I figured out that if I edit an existing APN but don't change the MCC or MNC values, then it'll stick. I read that the MCC/MNC should be zeroed out for VZW but apparently it doesn't make a difference, as I'm able to send/receive MMS messages with 310/120 respectively. Hope this helps.

Hey guys I just got an HTC Vivid a few days ago and I love the phone, the screen is such an upgrade from my iPhone 4(in usability).
I do have an issue where I cannot receive any MMS messages at all. I can send them just fine and I can sent receive regular texts, but picture messages just come up with a download button but once pressed it will say downloading and switch back to saying download.
I already called AT&T about it and they where unable to do anything about it. Any ideas? If I do not get this figured out by Monday, I will likely try to exchange my phone...
Make sure you have a LTE data plan provisioned and you have selected the default apn. Also you may want to go into a corp store and get a new sim.

i had this problem about 1.5 weeks ago and it was a network issue... it was resolved within a day or 2... what usually worked for me was to reboot the phone, after ATT fixed the problem then all was good.
It was indeed an issue with the default APN settings. After setting the APN to what is described in the link below my MMS works 100% perfectly! Thanks for the help.

I don't have Vivid in front of me ATM but maybe you can try and create a new APN instead of modifying the existing one.
Yes you can press the options button and create a new APN.
Sorry for the bump of a thread. This is what I get. "One or more of the message components have been deleted by MMS Adaptation. Either the message was too large or the components were unsuitable for your terminal".
Sender was using an iphone 4. I can receive other pictures from my friends 4s.
Would updating the AP fix this and would doing so effect anything with the network?
Sorry I am a noob.

I've had this same issue when I was sending a picture to a friend with an iPhone 4. That's the message they received when trying to open the MMS.
I've been on Arhd 62 with Sense 6.0 on my M7 AT&T for a month now. Everything is great except Blinkfeed stopped refreshing this week and won't show any content. I tried everything with auto sync, rebooting, etc. Also I will not get any MMS, pics or group. They show up in preview notifications bar but when I go to messages they're not there, like they don't exist. I tried different APN settings and this forum isn't easy to navigate. I found numerous APN settings that vary. Can someone point me to the right ones for AT&T with LTE and MMS? Or how else to solve these issues? Thank you.

you can found the correct apn setting for at&t on their website or google it: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=at&t+lte+apn
Note that using app like AdBlockPlus also cause issue sending/receiving mms

I Googled it and got varying results and contradicting APN settings that weren't current. Some Cingular, some AT&T. Some say to leave some stuff unspecified, some not... I did have AdBlockPlus but uninstalled it and that didn't fix it. Can you help me find the most current settings?
I'm using the Turbo with Verizon but I want to change the APN so I can add the AdBlockPlus settings. However, the (+) button to add a new APN isn't there for me. Looks like I need to be using a different network to be able to edit the APB but I was wondering if there's any way to force the phone to use a custom APN (or to change the one that's tied to the SIM)
Thanks in advance.
I've been down the same road and I could not find a way to modify the APN. But if your goal is to block ads, then I recommend you try Adguard. It uses VPN.

Thanks, I'll check it out.
In an effort to not start a new thread...what if my goal is to troubleshoot MMS messages not working? Only Textra seems to work for me, I can't use any other messaging apps that don't have their own APN settings, including Google Messages, because they will forever say "Downloading MMS" even though it displays an MMS downloaded in a different app while it's the default just fine. Any ideas?
I'm using BlissPop and have been unable to send/receive MMS using the stock Messaging app.
Google Messenger works
Sliding messaging works
Hangouts works
Not an APN issue, unless there are hidden ones somewhere.
Interestingly, in sliding messaging when I ask it to automatically insert the APN, two options come up: the right one (optus), which I have in settings, and the wrong one(virgin), not listed anywhere else.
Could be possible that the virgin APN is hidden somewhere and being defaulted too in Messaging? I am actually on Virgin (Australia), but they use the optus network so the optus APN is the correct one.
Any thoughts on this, besides telling me to just use one of the other apps?
You or your ROM running an ad blocker? On Verizon I have to whitelist the MMS server
Sent from my Benzo'd Google N6 on VZ
Interesting thought, but I imagine that no MMS would come through if it was blocking the server. My issue seems to be isolated specifically to MMS.apk
Here is my current setup, I'm on Chroma 8/24 with HellsCore Kernel B10 T4 on Verizon. I have noticed that I am not receiving or able to send MMS. I have narrowed the issue down to Google Messenger. I can successfully send and receive MMS using Google Hangouts. Now I know it has nothing to do with the ROM. Its something wrong with the APNs and Messenger itself. Has anyone else had this issue and or a solution to it?

Do you have an ad blocker installed? If so, that may be the issue.
I think I just solved my own problem! After tweaking it for a while, I was able to get MMS working on Messenger. It would stop working after a reboot though.
But I think I may have found a permanent solution. I have adjusted the APN settings accordingly and it is working consistently after reboots now. Heres what I did:
-Go to Setting>More>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names>
-Tap the LTE - Verizon Internet APN
-Set settings as below:
-MMSC: http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms
-APN Type: default,dun,supl,mms
-Keep everything else default
-Now save the changes
-Now delete all remaining APNs except the newly edited one.
-Reboot and now try MMS
BINGO!
I will update in the next couple of days to see if the changes truly fixed it.

I do, but this was an issue before I installed AdAway. I think I found a permanent fix for me which I just posted. Just in case someone is having the same issue.
