Can't receive mms on hangouts 2.5 - X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone have this issue? I am on the pure edition running on at&T. MMS worked before this new update to hangouts. I'm also on lollipop. Other sms apps can receive mms. Just that hangouts can't.

Check the APN settings in Hangouts.

I did. Tried every apn setting that was available on hangouts. I keep getting the message that says mms not downloaded. Other sms app like textra works fine.

Are you on WiFi when it fails!? Try with WiFi off.

It fails with WiFi off. And it take about 10 minutes before I get the notification from hangouts that my mms failed to download.

Can you post a screenshot of your apn settings?

These are what my phone was set up as. I checked with the apn settings from the at&t website and it seems to be the same. I also set select the apn from hangouts that matches those settings and still doesn't work.
Any help would be appreciated.

Only one connection is allowed when roaming on a GSM network

I get this message whenever I turn wifi tethering on. Is there any way to remive this annoying message?
How does the phone know I'm roaming and is there any way to make the phone think I'm not, cause the data connection also shows GSM instead of 3G cause it knows I'm outside us

I got another one today, some of the numbers are different. This is weird. Should I just call and ask what the hell it is?
Check your voicemail.
It's a msg trying to configure Visual Voicemail on your device. If your device was supported, you wouldnt see that msg,
Thanks guys, looks like y'all are right!
If you haven't figured it out yet, edit your account on verizonwireless.com and take off basic visual voicemail. Repleace it with basic voicemail, or something of the sort. No VVM for us! You can use Google Voice for that though.

Thanks, I'm doing that right now. I used to have Google Voice work as my voicemail but that stopped when I got one of the updates on the LG G2 I think... or maybe it was just when I switched to the Nexus 6? Don't remember
Well, I went to manage my device on Verizon but only Verizon Cloud and HD Voice calling was active, no visual voicemail at all. Hmmm

[Q] MMS Settings

Device: Nexus 6
Carrier: AT&T
Rom: Chroma
Which I actually highly recommend to all
Issue: MMS seems to not be downloading onto my phone on any messaging app. On my Xperia Ion, I would use an application called Textra to message. It would allow me to obtain MMS and SMS by selecting a setting which toggled data temporarily to download the MMS.
This option is no longer there for the Nexus and the one closest to it simply toggles my wifi off.
I am not sure how to receive MMS in any messaging app and was wondering what individuals who have MMS have done to fix this.

Try updating your apn settings to the setup below and see how it responds.

How do you get to the APN settings menu. I'm on Verizon running cm12 and I don't see Access Point Names as one of the options under mobile networks.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
Ive been having the same issue, i cannot get mms to arrive on my phone. apn is as listed above, but no dice.
Any ideas?

Delete all unused apns

Delete all unused APNs and verify that your app is on the correct MMSC.
To OP, you could have asked this in the ROM thread if you wanted to
I'm on T-Mobile and my MMS has worked since day one. I haven't noticed any problems.
And thank you for recommending the ROM.

Repeat Notification

I recently upgraded to a Note 5 from the Galaxy S5 active. It was very easy to set on the S5 but I cannot get my unread text message notification repeat setting to work on the Note 5. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Good luck
I've set it there and it still doesn't work. Oddly enough I downloaded Textra and used it for about 2 weeks and it worked fine with that app, just not the messages app.

I don't have that option on that screen. I have everything except repeat message alert.
I've had Note 5 for 6 months and repeat notifications has been driving me CRAZY! I looked everywhere (I thought) for a setting to disable it. Thank you for pointing me to this setting!
No more turning my phone OFF at night to stop it making noises every minute! (Even with Do Not Disturb enabled!)

New Google maps update, "destinations"

Anyone notice this in the new update? How do you add more locations? All mine says is home, doesn't do me any good when I'm on the way to work every morning.

OK, have you tried the 3 lines on the head unit then, I don't have my car for a few days to test!
No way to change anything in the car settings, this is a stock system in a Hyundai Santa Fe.

Mine swaps between work and home, no problems. I anyway had both home and work locations set in Google maps. Noticed it a couple weeks ago. Haven't tried seeing if i can add others.
