No MMS with Google Messenger on Verizon - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

MMS messages not working. Owain80 rom.

Hi all
I've been having some issues for a while with sending and receiving MMS messages. I'm using Owain build #80, with the included kernel. I'm on BB 1035.21_20110725 and RIL 0725 (V10d, Europe). My carrier is BiBob (who is on the CM MMS carrier list), and my MMS settings appear to be correct.
When receiving a MMS message I can see that one has been sent to me, but I'm not able to download the image. It's just stuck at a "downloading message" and three days later my carrier lets me see the image on their webpage instead, when sending an image it's just stuck at "sending".
I hope someone is able to help me, and that I've just missed some trivial setting somewhere.
Thanks!
Noone else having had a similar problem and came up with a solution?
I had this problem on a cm7 build.. here's what I did...
1. I installed go SMS from the market
2. Googled the APN settings for my network (pay as you go and contract are different)
3. Manually entered the APN settings in go SMS (found under ...settings .. mms settings.. manual apn...
Viola mms working.. try that and let me know how u get on

It works! Tyvm. Just gotta get used to this new app, it looks a little heavy, but should be fine.

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] 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.

Hi, how are you guys? I have the following problem. When I go to send a SMS, the message it wasn't show into the send SMS, and it wasn't sent. I have stock ROM 5.1.1 with ElementalX

Anybody else got this problem?

Check your APN settings are correct, sounds like you are missing something.

The aPN settings are ok. The problem looks that it's in the application. When I press send, the sms don't show up in the screen or there wasn't sended.
Just in case I deleted all the APN settings, and reinstalled all again, but the problem persist.
It's possible reinstall only the sms app?
The rom it's LMY48M.

Try installing Handscent or chomper and see if you get the same result. If your using the stock messenger, you can disable it and uninstall the updates but not uninstall the app.

In your apn settings check to make sure you have the correct mms proxy and mms port, also check your apn type mine is default,mms,supl but best to google the settings for your provider

Yes, the APNs are ok. I have two. One for Internet and another for MMS. I did a "Reset to default" and the information for each APNs are the same as the provider.
I had few problems with sms before as well and I just installed a different sms app (like Google Messenger) and made it default one. Everything worked fine after and it usually even looks better.

I can't see it being the kernel, I was running the same one but I flashed back to the stock one. Never had a problem sending sms on either though to be honest. Did you check your providers website to make sure it isn't on their end? Also can you receive texts?

Yes, the most strange it's that I can receive sms, for that reason today I realized of this issue. I received a sms and when I was to reply, I couldn't.
The kernel it's stable. I used it before and I could send a sms.
I hate to say it but maybe factory reset? clear both cache... if that isn't it..... reflash with stock kernel and see if that does it..... just dont flash userdata so you dont loose anything.... it sure sounds like a settings problem though... who is the provider?
Are you using Hangouts? I had this problem and then switched over to Messenger and its all good now. Might be a totally different issue, but maybe worth a shot.

Yes, I think so, but I don't want to jaja. I will try to go back to the stock kernel, and if that doesn't work, yes I will do a factory reset.

I disable Hangouts, but the problems still persist. You go to Apps > Hangouts and disable it? o you did something else?

So, it isn't that. neither the kernel. I have to do a factory reset. I will try with a TWRP BackUp, and if does not work, then I will do it.
I did a factory reset, and the problem was solved. Thanks to all!!!!
