Unable to receive MMS - ST tMobile - Blu Vivo XL

Hi,
I have tried just about every APN I can get my hands on and have talked to ST via chat and they give me APN's to try, yet I am unable to "RECEIVE" MMS connected to WiFi or Network. Something I have noticed, when I am attempting to download a MMS that was sent, I never see the network icon show up. Isn't that suppose to show up during the initial process? Any who, I will list the current and ONLY APN I have / use atm. Thanks!
NOTE: If it's not listed it is "NOT SET"
APN: wap.tracfone
Port: 8080
MMSC: http://mms.tracfone.com
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
APN Type: default,mms,supl (Should this have spaces?)
APN Enable/Disable: IS checked

SlimMan, are you using T-Mobile or another third party carrier that uses T-Mobile's network? If T-Mobile, my Sim automatically enters:
APN: epc.t-mobile.com
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
this works very well for me, 4G LTE, etc.

Thanks for the reply.
I am using T-Mobile via Straight Talk. The link you shared, I am not able to get it to load via Chrome or IE?
Thanks again.

But Straight Talk piggy backs on AT&T.

Sorry for the confusion, if using over straight talk it will be different. So far wap.tracfone should work, have you called Straight talk support?

Question: No DATA on US ATT Unlocked Eurospec

Just got my Note straight from the UK, unlocked. Been on the phone with ATT about 6 times. I can send and recieve calls, texts - but no DATA. They can't seem to figure out why it will not pick up the ATT Data Network. Sim, EIN all linked, but no joy.
I am a noob, sorry - any ideas. I hate to send the phone back.
Any ideas ?
Update - Funk2641's response below (no APN was entered) - fixed it the issue.
Still, ATT would not give me a 4G smartphone plan - even though the H+ shows up next to the clock ? Initial Speedtests look like the same as my Infuse, Atrix and 4S.
Thanks everybody (Funk2641) for your help ! I hope this thread saves some agony for many as this phone is hitting the states. Don't know if I will tread in Eurospec for the Nexus, as I will want to hold that one in my hand first.
Also, this is a great phone - speed, battery life and the screen is fantastic !
Did you put the APN in correctly?

No, I will give it a try.
Thx.
please keep posted.....I'll be on Att Friday
I will follow this thread since I will also switch from T-mobile to AT&T.
I too have the same issues. I actually used a few different apns and got edge to work poorly, I sighed and told myself ICS would fix it all up better and to just enjoy the extra battery life of 2g now, God I hope a get this cleared up

Technically, the Note is just a big SGS2. There's no reason on the phone side you should be having a problem using the Cingular APN. I'm using a ISGS2 and a UK 3G Tab 10.1 on AT&T with no problem. It's either something with the provisioning of your account or your Note may not have the right bands (Asian?). The latter is unlikely if you ordered it from the UK. Try reseting the APN to default under network settings. Also, if you're on a legit 4G plan there's a specific APN that you can find on the ASGS2 forum.
Here is another APN that works, I had the same issue
For APN settings use the name ATT and then for APN the word phone. Leave everything else blank-what is needed will get filled in automatically. Click the APN when you finish adding it and the radio button turns green to indicate it is working. The advantage to this APN setting is it gives you clear access and data speeds are not limited by ATT.
Those apns didn't work and I too a would doubt my phone bring the Asian version,.this version of gingerbread has the option to suspend my data network from holding down the power button maybe the software isn't...... I don't know I have no clue but my apns are normal but when's search they don't come up
In the list automatically so something a wrong
and I came from a hspa+ phone so my plan is already to go, I called to double check
to op, glad you got it straightened out...who did you order from and how much?

I am on the iphone plan with unlimited data, worked just fine in galaxy tab original 7"
i tried using funks apn settings and i still have nothing, i came from an atrix where i always got H+ and now here are me speeds, my speed test was done in detroit, i live in NJ my ping was 317, U 144 kbps D 155 kbps, i have no idea what is wrong with this phone but att can get going on it, i called and they have nothing for me!!! i dont know what to do
What plans are you guys, please?
(Anyone on month to month $50 unlimited?
There are two different APNs to use depending on what data plan you're on. If you're using a MediaNet or Data for non-Smartphones plan (3G) you need to use the Cingular APN. If you're on a legit 4G plan you need to use the special APN for 4G phones. If you reverse it, you'll get no data. For those of you on the 4G plan, go in to the APN settings. When you press menu, there's a reset to default option. It should pull the 4G settings down automatically. If you're on a 3G plan don't do this and instead manually enter the below settings. If you do this correctly you should get data. If you have a quad-band phone and still can't get data it's something with your account settings and not the h/w.

[Q] Weird Net10 internet issue

I have an unlocked Bell Atrix HD and I'm using it with the NET10 AT&T SIM. I followed the NET10 APN setting instructions and it told me to use the following:
Name: net10
APN: att.mvno
Proxy: proxy.mvno.tracfone.com
Port: 80
MMSC: mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: 66.209.11.33
MMS Port: 80
I tried those settings and had no internet and no MMS. I removed the proxy and MMS proxy. I also tried removing the port for internet and MMS. Neither combination worked. I double checked my phone was unlocked by doing volume down + power and it says 'unlocked' on a black screen with white letters. I start trying all types of settings until I gave the T-Mobile APN a try (wap.tracfone). Internet worked immediately. MMS still doesn't work. I tried the T-Mobile and AT&T MMS settings with no luck. I did a speed test while tethering and it says AT&T Wireless Network Services so I know the SIM is for AT&T, plus the APN settings default to AT&T if I do restore default settings. I'm confused why the only APN that works is the T-Mobile 'wap.tracfone' one.
Anyone have good knowledge about this who is able to help me out?
I called NET10 and lets just say I have nothing to say about that..lol
Thanks,
Alex

Try taking your first proxy setting out (leave blank the one just under "APN") leave your MMS proxy as-is,
MMSC Should be http://mmsc.Cingular.com (type in the http:// that you left out)
For "MCC" use 310
For "MNC" use 410
See if that works for you

Have you guys set the APN type. My atrix HD wasn't getting data until I set it to the same as the stock att one except for DUN. After doing that and a reboot. It worked flawlessly.
note: the speed test app will not work for some reason. Only upload will register. If u want to run a speed test install flash for JB and go to speedtest.net.

T-Mobile Moto X on Net10 (ATT SIM) w/ LTE?

Does anyone have a T-Mobile Moto X running on Net10 (ATT network) and getting LTE working?
If so, what APN settings are you using?
I purchased a nano ATT Net10 SIM from a reseller who cut it down to size, and it came with instructions which make me believe it might be an old SIM because the enclosed directions said to use:
Name: NET10
APN: att.mvno
Proxy: proxy.mvno.tracphone.com
Port: 80
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: 66.209.11.33
MMS Port: 80
-----------------and additional info on various websites also suggest:
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Auth Type: PAP
APN Type: default,supl,mms
If I delete the main proxy listed above and leave it blank, I can connect with 4G (HSPA+) but don't see LTE coverage areas. If I don't delete the proxy, I get nothing.
The settings for a new ATT SIM are very different, and didn't seem to work at all. Is it possible to even get LTE with the old SIM? I'm new to this SIM game. If I have to get a new SIM, can my existing 30 days be transferred to a different card?
Also, for the first couple hours it all acted very wacky. It would work, and then all of a sudden put up the icons saying the phone didn't have a SIM card at all. I'd pop out/in the card and reboot, and it would come back. Lost it this way 3 or 4 times, but it hasn't happened in a number of hours now. Would this suggest the cut-down nano SIM wasn't the best trimming job?

I get LTE, and everything functions accordingly.
Don't worry about the sim card, I cut mine by hand, it takes a few bits to set up the radio and all the fit bits within. After the first day, everything is fine.

The tfdata (the APN that's also provided through the NET10 app in the Play store) APN is the correct one for getting LTE. I had the same problem, as I was unable to get data on tfdata and only getting HSPA+ on the wap.tracfone APN. I called the BYOP support line (1-855-333-CELL) and they verified I had the tfdata APN settings correct, then "updated my line." Boom, LTE.

I'll give that a try soon. Got a new nano SIM I stamped out of a micro directly from NET10 and not a reseller. Need to port my existing Verizon number out via Google Voice and sell an existing Verizon Unlimited Data plan via an AoL before picking up NET10 again. Found HSPA+ pretty good during my trial run, so it should be even better with LTE. During my test I think the old SIM I was using created the problem as nothing using tfdata worked at all.

I'm really pleased with the HSPA coverage, so much that I would've left it as is if I could've gotten MMS to work. It's nice having that fallback, especially indoors or out in the boonies.
I bought my SIM from Wal-Mart. Strange, I would've expected SIM cards from official channels would work better than the reseller ones.

Thought I remember reading somewhere that Verizon Moto X was SIM unlocked for international use only. Sounds like the kind of thing Verizon would do.
Not to sound like a douche, but this has been discussed many many times, and the answer is: Older Verizon handsets were "international" meaning they had international bands but wouldn't work on US networks. That's since changed, as now all Verizon phones that have GSM capabilities are unlocked for US networks and international GSM too.
The issue the OP is having is not based on the network working at all, it's that his data specifically won't connect. OP, I'd double check all the possible APN's you could find online and see if changing them would work. Remember, H+ is all you'll get on a VZW Moto X that's on ATT's network.

I'm happy with hspa+ but I can't get the APN settings to save.
It could ultimately be an issue with the way VZW "modified" the firmware. When on VZW's network, APN's aren't editable at all. I'm assuming you're able to edit them as you're saying that the APN's won't save, but sounds like it's giving you the option to edit them.
Try these various APN's

May try using something like an app to modify the APNs, such as this > https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tweakker
That's honestly the only thing I know, if the phone won't let you add them from the system settings.
You shouldn't have to FR the phone just to use another SIM. If that were the case, then using the phone globally wouldn't work right as the APN's wouldn't sync up. I don't think that having the line active on VZW would hurt it either because ultimately, the device needs the SIM to even register on a CDMA network, let alone LTE.
There's bound to be a way to save the APN's properly. If it's allowing you to add them, then there should be a way to save them. Does it give you the 3-dot menu button? Or a button at the bottom to save or anything?

Yes there's the 3 dots then save. When I click save it goes to the main APN screen and there is no APN profiles there.
Just to confirm, you're typing a name for the APN right? Make sure that under mobile networks, the network type is set as LTE/GSM (or Global, I forget the option), and that roaming is allowed, and then try the APN. I wish I had my ST SIM active so I could test this with you.

Yes I am typing a name for the APN. I'm on the $35 feature go plan. Its possible it may not work on the moto x but it should still let me create a APN right?

maybe its a lockout function from the sim/carrier at that point? no idea.. sorry i'm just throwing out random guesses now.

Wi-Fi Calling not working Metro-PCS

I've tried to ask this on reddit but I could not get any help. I have seen a thread on the nexus 6P but not for the nexus 6. WiFi calling does not activate, I have metropcs but I've seen people have WiFi calling activated on metro. It does say IWLAN on sim status but I can't make calls or texts. I have tried many WiFi networks and have flashed the stock image but still can't connect. E911 address is updated as well. http://imgur.com/a/6ZP9h I am on chroma 12/10, i manually flashed 6.0.1 stock, i also used the tmobile lollipop image for wifi calling and not luck, any help? Thanks

ahhh.. that didnt have a date on it, so i wasnt sure? do both your wifi calling setting say wifi preferred? both as in the main phone settings and in your phone settings? mine never worked until about 3 months ago, now it always works.
Yeah both are enabled. For some reason it does say IWLAN on sim status.

I recently got a Huaweii Nexus 6p about a weak ago and this was the one feature i needed the most due to poor reception in some parts of my home. After many days so searching xda, t-moble subreddit, and other help forums. I also made many calls to customer service and still getting no result. As of the other day i can confirm that I've found a solution.
1. Submit your e911 address to metropcs. You can the my metro app from the playstore or call customer service and give it to them so they can put it in the system manually.
2. Go into the apn settings and maually delete each default metro pcs apn one by one. After deleteing them you should notice that the apns will default to showing t-mobile's apn settings. (Ex: T-MobileGPRS, T-Mobile IMS, T-Mobile MMS)
3. Click on the first apn that says "T-MobileGPRS" that is the setting we will edit. The other apns you can leave as is.
4. Once in the T-MobileGPRS setting change the Name from T-MobileGPRS to "MetroPCS".
5. Change the the APN from fast.tmobile.com to "fast.metropcs.com" . Leave all other settings as is and then save the changes.
After that give it a few minutes then you will notice it says "T-Mobile Wifi Caliing" make a test call and you should see in the dialer screen "wifi calling". From the there you will be good to go!
** I can also confirm that this solution also activates VoLTE and data and mms also work with not issues at all!

I tried this and it did not work.. are you on band 12? It says I am on band 4. I'm not sure what to do, Volte did not work. It used to work with the same sim card on metropcs on my nexus 6.

What are the default apn settings for your device? I might have another solution for you.

Here is what I currently have attached are the png images. My phone said they were not Jpeg so I could not upload them through tapatalk.
Disregard the first screenshot that was random.

Alright looks like you have the same setup i did. I stumbled upon this new configuration after the original solution I had posted stopped working. So with your current apn settings
1. Delete all the the Metro PCS 260 apns.
2. From there you should only have the default T-Mobile apns that list T-Mobile GPRS, T-Mobile IMS, T-Mobile MMS.
3. Edit the "T-Mobile GPRS" apn and save the following configuration:
Name: MetroPCS
APN: fast.metropcs.com
Proxy: <Leave in Blank>
Port: <Leave in Blank>
Username: <Leave in Blank>
Password: <Leave in Blank>
Server: <Leave in Blank>
MMSC: <Leave in Blank>
MMS proxy: <Leave in Blank>
MMS port: <Leave in Blank>
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
Authentication type: <Leave in Blank>
APN type: default,supl
APN Protocol: ipv6
APN Roaming Protocol : ipv4
Bearer: unspecified
MVNO Type: None
from there save this apn.
4. Create another apn to the list with the following configuration:
Name: MetroPCS 260
APN: fast.metropcs.com
Proxy: <Leave in Blank>
Port: <Leave in Blank>
Username: <Leave in Blank>
Password: <Leave in Blank>
Server: <Leave in Blank>
MMSC: (add in the http:// before)mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS proxy: <Leave in Blank>
MMS port: <Leave in Blank>
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
Authentication type: <Leave in Blank>
APN type: ia
APN Protocol: ipv4/ipv6
APN Roaming Protocol : ipv4/ipv6
Bearer: unspecified
MVNO Type: None
Save this apn when done.
5. From there you should have this list of apns: MetroPCS, MetroPCS 260, T-Mobile IMS, T-Mobile MMS.
Make sure the MetroPCS one is selected( The 1st in the list)
Almost forgot. To enable SMS texting over wifi:
--Go to Dialer; then dialpad
--dial *#*#4636#*#*
--Phone Information
--Turn on SMS over IMS.
From there if you once your done restart your phone and connect to a wireless network. And wait a few minutes then it should work from there. I used this setup and i can confirm that both wifi-calling is working & VoLTE. Let me know if this worked for you.

Ok so I tried this and then I had no data connection. After some time all I had was H. I then tried enabling wifi and putting on airplane mode with wifi enabled.. phone said connect to a network to make a call. To get my data and mms back I had to remove all the APN's and reset to default. I left the three tmobile ones there and added the mmsc (http://mms.msg.eng...) to the Metro 260 apn and now I have LTE again and my MMS is working as well as texts.
I guess its because I am on band 4? If you download LTE Discovery what band does it say you are on? This is weird at least I had Volte on the nexus 6 with the same sim card on metropcs.
