Hi there! I just wanted to know if anyone is having the same problems. Im using 8525 with joshkoss' v11 m2d rom. with radio 1.56.70.11 and on the cingular network. and using arcsoft mms composer 4281
i can send mms to ANYBODY fine. I get MMS from cingular phones fine as well. But my friend (from Verizon) can send them fine too. But the problem is my girlfriend (verizon as well) can send them but i dont get anything. (she tried sending to her brother and it works) Her brother who is on the same network can send them but i get some of his mms. not all.
Is it my end of the network or they would have to figure it out with verizon?
Or is it a program that i have thats causing this? maybe upgrade the arcsoft???
I have your setup without any issues. I would maybe rerun the connection setup wizard but I dont think that would fix it. Another good way to test is send yourself an MMS, it will show you if you can send and receive properly.
Right now I am having a similar problem with SMS and my gf on Sprint. If I send 2 texts she always gets them right after I send them but sometimes when I send just 1 it will take up to 30 mins for her to get it. We have tried everything to fix it and she is the only one I have a problem with so it might just be an unlucky mismatch somewhere beyond your control like my situation.
Thanks for the reply.
The settings are good. i can send/recieve fine with cingular members. i can send fine with her (and other friends with verizon) fine. All of my mms they received. But I cant receive hers, only some from her brother, and most of it from a friend. So its weird. But i did a hard reset hopefully that will fix it.
Oh and a side note, does hard resetting josh's rom will have the HR problem? Do i have to install stock rom and reflash rom instead of just hard resetting the phone? Or hard resetting the phone wont have much problems?
Before I flash any ROM I use the official AT&T WM6 striped ROM. I have have zero problems with HR on the Winter ROM but others have given me problems even after flashing the ATT ROM first.
yes i did that too on my initial flash of the v11 m2d rom.
but i just did a hard reset to flush out the phone and start again. So we will see if HR would come out after the manual hard reset.

if not dude, check out my winterrom, also the lighter version DarkWinter will be out very soon, I've confirmed that mms is working, at least for me on latest arcsoft
I've had the same issue with Verizon uses, regardless of ROM, including the stock AT&T WM6. It comes and goes, working instantly on one day, and not at all the next.

Thank you, are those roms m2d as well? i just absolutely love the m2d. But i have deduced the problem to be network related, not your rom. So I did the manual hard reset, installed the v5 arcsoft from the device update (i like v4 better, cause it splits mms and sms, but i might as well use the latest) and so far its working. MMS from my girfriend and her brother does take a bit of time to get to me, at least i got her MMS for once!

That is true, i think the problem is with the network not rom. Thanks for the reply
MMS has always been hit or miss with me. Even with a correct setup, sometimes I won't receive MMS from my girlfriend either, which always prompts me asking her if she always receives mine.
I've flashed dozens of ROMS, ran configuration setup, manually entered settings for MMS and I always get the same results - hit or miss.
I'm going to assume its the AT&T network. SMS is fine, its the MMS.

does anybody knows what to do about mms i have try six drifrent roms from manila 2.1 to 2.5 none of this rom since to have mms working need help, or going to have to go back to the stock rom i dont want to do that. please help.
I'm using The Cell Pro Series V8 with Manila 2.1 and mms works fine for me, give it a try if not already but failing that perhaps run a connection wizard which sets up the mms settings or worst case scenario get in touch with you operator.
Hope this helps
mms not working
thanks i try calling operator'
if you have a cdma phone then mightymike works perfectly...his seems to be the most stable, reliable, and most "stock" like...give it a shot
mms not working
im using the cell pro v8 still the same problem next step is to call operator thanks.
mms not working
it looks like the problem was att, they fix it so im happy againg o by the way the cell rom v8 is the best i try thanks.
Hey all,
Hoping that someone here has some insight with regard to a problem I am having with MMS.
Firstly, let me say that I have had no problems sending and receiving MMSes on my original HTC ROM, nor with Modaco 3.x ROMs.
Recently, I started trying out some of the cooked 2.1 ROMs appearing on XDA, and I am loving them. However, for the life of me, I cannot get MMS to work. I've tried CKDroid, Villian and jnwhiteh's AOSP 2.1 ROMS, and all do the same thing.
I have confirmed that my APN settings are 100% correct by reverting back to an old Nandroid backup from when I had the original ROM installed. I copied those to the LETTER, and still no luck. A work colleague has a G1 with the latest Cyanogen ROM, and I've tried his settings too. I've even flashed Cyanogen's APN list on the three ROMs I've tried, to no avail.
I can only conclude that something in AOSP 2.1 is not quite right. I'm aware that some people are having success with MMS though, and I cannot really explain this. My theory is that perhaps they have a singular APN for both internet and MMS. My Network provider requires two. Perhaps it is this "switching" between the two that is not working correctly. However, I have also tried leaving ONLY my MMS APN installed, also without success. I guess that kinda blows my theory out the water.
Pretty sure I've tried everything imaginable without having any deeper knowledge of what goes on in the background (which is why I am appealing to the boffins here).
Any help / advice would be greatly appreciated!
I've only used the Kagudroid and Modaco ROMS. And MMS works fie on Kagudroid, so maybe give that a go?
just tried on Villian 1.2. and it works, I have as well special MMS APN. I assume you have it, but just make sure you have type=default set for the network ( not MMS ) APN.
Wow, okay thanks, I'll give that a shot!
Just to give this problem a bit od support, i have also had an MMS problem, but i have to admit i have only been using Modaco 2.9 and 3.1.
If i am on Wifi or 2G and i want to send or recieve MMS the phone will temporarily connect to 3G and download the message and then revert back. If i am already connected through 3G the phone wont download or send the message.
HTH

UPDATE: I am officially sick and tired of typing in the same APN settings over and over again, but I can now at least officially confirm that MMS (perhaps where two APNs are used) is working in both Villain 1.2.1 and KaguDroid 1.3. Identical settings do not work in CKDroid or jnwhiteh's AOSP 2.1.
What does this mean? What makes Villain and Kagu different? I believe Kagu is based on an HTC kernel, could this be it?
Either way, I hope that this information will assist the devs working on custom ROMs in finding a solution for people like kkoouu and myself. Clearly there is a problem in the mix *somewhere*.
Hi - I too have been having this problem. It works fine with Modaco 3.1, but not with Espresso Hybrid nor Villain.
Could you detail step by step how you got it working? I've never changed any APN settings ( indeed I don't know what my settings are or how to change them! ).
cheers
Villain doesn't include a huge APN list like Modaco, so you will have to input your APN settings manually. You can get these from your Modaco ROM (write them down), and input them into Villain.
Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Mobile networks -> Access Point Names
The key seems to be that you MUST have "default" under TYPE for your internet APN, and "mms" for your MMS APN.
VERYYY Silly question -- do you have to have data-network on to send MMS?
I thought not - but I just tried it and it worked

What did you think a mms was sent with? MMSes are always sent vie data-network only sms work via standard gsm.

Where did you check your setting or what did you use to compare them with.
I for example am on T-Mobile in Germany. On every custom Rom I've noticed a wrong mms apn. The mmsc was always http://mms.t-d1.de but the correct one is http://mms.t-mobile.de/servlets/mms. The port was different too.
I don't know which apn list the devs are using but the apn, at least for mms with t-mobile d, are just wrong.
Correcting them solves the issue and mms can be sent and received.

Looked on orange website to compare the settings. All correct. But since the minor update 2.0.1 i havent tried mms as yet, but hopefully its fixed.
hey guys, i have the stock rom of tmobile (windows 6.5) and i have a problem.
i dont know why, but my mms never downloads on its own.
i always get a message saying the download expired and if i want to try to download anyways.
i always want my mms to download and send automatically.
any help would be great.
(i've searched for MMS reg tweaks and things like that but nothing was ever the exact problem i had.)
T-mobile is nothing but trouble.
I was with them for 2 years, no MMS with the razor, then I updated to A1800 nothing, no MMS and no internet access.
After repeated calls to the tech support to fix the internet, they all failed and I switched to Sprint.
Sorry i am not solving your problem, but you may want to think about switching.

oh no, tmobile has always been great with me
i've never had a horrible experience with them
[except the sidekick 2009 horror fest which wasnt all their fault]
& i always got my MMS with the custom roms i use to have.
but now i like the stock rom too [odd, i know] and thats the rom i have the problem with
It's been awhile since I was on stock but have you tried going to settings>connections>connection>connections and pick *Automatically configure connection* and see if that fixes it. I had the same problem and did that and had no more probs. Hope this helps Good luck

there wasnt any "automatically configure connection" it already had tmobile data on there and its settings.
stupid MMS should just download and send on time!
Hey, i have just installed the newest MIUI Australia 3.1.11v2 on my HOX, and i have one simple problem.
At first nothing worked, but after a few reinstallations, the only thing not working now is sms and data.

I updated my hboot to 1.39, and if there is anything else you need just ask
Hope someone can help me.

Had sort of issues like you. Did everything to fix it. Turned out my SIM couldn't register on the network of my operator (2g all fine, 3g mess up). If you call the support of your operator, they can look it up. Had to get a replacement SIM.
Try disable 3g and send a sms to someone, when I had 3g on it wouldn't deliver the sms. As soon it was disabled it could.
Not saying you got the same, but most of the issues you report are very familiar with what I got in past.

Well just tried to disable the data, but it didn't work. I just cant see why the problem should be caused by the sim since it worked fine with another rom yestaday?

It started with rooting the device by me. When I got the device I left it stock without root for 4 weeks, after that week I started to get this problem. From one on the other day. It didn't make sense at all.
I serious spent 5 months to fix this, I had made radio changes, RIL changes, ROM changes, removing root, had contact with services centers, had contact with operator, had contact with HTC and none of them worked or could provide a solution. Untill I got a (smart) girl on the phone at the operator support who told me to get a new sim card to see if the phone would register at the network then.
Thats why I say this to you, as none acctually knows what went wrong and you have exact same issues as me. In case you spent so much time to find it out while someone could have a solution available.
Hi folks,
Sometimes I can't receive picture messages and I can never send them to my wife's telus phone. They show up as white squares with no text included. Anybody had this or can provide suggestions? I have tried many things so far. Full story below...
Thanks
**************************
I have a Telus T989/ S2X. I have had it for 1.5 yrs and have flashed numerous ROMS since I rooted it about a year ago. Over this time I have had MMS issues on and off.
From early ICS ROMS (darkside) and now to Jelly Bean roms (CM10 nightly, Jedi Jelly, Slim-Star...and more) I have had a strange issue. I can send picture messages to almost everyone and receive from almost everyone. Occasionally I have an issue receiving from friends on the Rogers/ Fido network and it stalls at 'downloading'. I tried unchecking auto-retrieve and it does not fix it. I have also tried multiple radios on multiple roms.
More recently my msgs cannot be viewed when I send them to my wife's phone ( I know, a blessing sometimes right?). She is on the same network (Telus) and has no problem sending/ receiving from anyone. When I send to her it shows as a white/ blank square and none of the text I typed shows up. Regular text are no problem ever.
I called Telus support and they ran me through checking the APN settings and a bunch of other tests sending pics back and forth and no fix. They are going to escalate the problem. I tried the trick of sending yourself a picture via gmail too without any luck. I didn't tell them I was rooted and on 4.1.2....but I have tried tons of diff roms and done a bunch of searching on the forums and google.
Just today I tried the Koodo 4.0.4 rooted ROM with no luck. Then I got pissed off and backed everything up and rolled back to the Telus 2.3.5 Gingerbread ROM. Guess what? MMS worked just fine!!?? I double checked the APN settings and they were identical.
So....has anyone else had this issue? I don't want to be stuck on Gingerbread just to use MMS. Could it be that the newer versions of the MMS/ SMS have issues? I noticed that when I went back to 2.3.5 it said "converting to MMS" when I attached a pic. I never see that in any other ROM.
Any suggestions or solutions that people have come across? I am slightly frustrated....especially since my wife's Nexus S has no problems and my S2X is way better but failing.
Thanks for your time and thoughts folks!

maybe u were send pics that were larger than the network supports. Hypothetically telus may only support 5meg attachments while Rogers/Fido does 10 ( I think this is actually the case but I'm not 100% sure). Use a third party app like hand cent or gosms that supports MMS compression and see how u fair

It seems like some are getting through with Handcent. So the stock app in CM10 is not working then? I should try different size files maybe to see if that is a factor like you said.
