Verizon Carrier and MMS issues on ROMS other than stcock - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone found a ROM other than stock that the MMS and Group texting work or a fix? I've tried several custom 5.1.1 Roms and I always have issues with the Stock messenger and MMS. I tried different APN's. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Just use Verizon Messages and you'll have no issues. Also has a lot of other useful features.

I personally never group text but I've had no issues with either SMS or MMS on benzo. just remember that ROMs with ad blockers will block the Verizon MMS server unless you whitelist it

I don't use it a lot but when I do it always seems to work fine. Roms wise I'm always on Chroma or Benzo and never touch any APN settings or anything else for that matter.

Hangouts MMS - Device or App Issue?

So I came across Hangouts, the messaging program created by Google. I really like the layout and decided to set it as my default SMS program. I got very used to it until I came across a time to send an MMS photo. It kept failing even with the highest bars in service. I Don't think it is the ROM I am running because I tried it on this and on the stock version of the HTC One. Has anyone else had this issue and know if it is an app issue or a device issue? There have been a few updates by Hangouts and none of them have seemed to do any justice.
Ive used hangouts sms since the day it launched. Pictures texts everything work. On data network and wifi. What rom are you running, tell some more about your setup if you require help.

Actually shortly after posting this I noticed there was an update for my Rom. After flashing it and attempting Hangouts MMS it is working now. Doesn't really explain why it didn't work on stock HTC One, but nonetheless it is running now.

No MMS receiving, and no blinkfeed refresh. What to do?

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?

[Q] Google Hangsout, No Group SMS Option

Hey,
On sense, I can use group messaging (with hangouts) perfectly fine. The option to enable it is in the settings and all.
While on 4.4.3 AOSP, I can't. CM11, the group messaging option doesnt exist. In Paranoid Android, the group option doesnt exist.
I have done an extensive google and xda search, and found answers ranging from build prop stuff to sim card programming. I have switched out the sim card once and played around with the build prop, and I still havent had any luck.
My phone number is confirmed and everything in Hangouts.
Anyone else having this issue with 4.4.3 roms? Anyone know of a fix?
Thanks

MMS

Anybody having issues sending and receiving MMS via WiFi?
Just curious - are you using the stock messaging app, or something else?
I'm coming from an LG G2, and spent a few months working with support to finally determine I couldn't use a non-stock app and still send MMS over wifi. I miss Handcent, but switching back to the stock app did the trick. I don't know if that's true with the S6, but would guess it is.

Using stock messenger app. I tried tweaking the APN according to what others were recommending on older gen Galaxys by selecting IPv6/IPv4 but still not able to get MMS to work over wifi.

[Q] MMS/Group Messaging Won't Download

Anyone have a fix for the T-Mobile MMS issue? I can't download texts that are coming through group messaging. I have played around with the APN settings but nothing seems to work.
what messaging app are you using?
are you on wifi calling at the time?
This happens to me too sometimes. Stock mms app on data. I have a few that have been downloading for three days now
until yesterday i got zero group texts that were sent to me from iphones. yesterday i changed ipv6 to ipv4 in my apn settings and group texts worked when i tested it. can't say it's a permanent fix, but definitely give that a shot.
I switched from Hangouts to the Google Messenger app as recommended from another forum and so far it seemed to do the trick.
