For some time now of have been trying to figure out why whenever I use a non sense based rom I have mms message download failures.
Come to find out, it only happens when I receive a mms that contains either an animated gif, or a gif with an audio attachment. I can receive mms messages that are just pics or plain text messages.
Again this is ONLY an issue on AOSP roms. All sense roms work as they should.
Can someone please look into this and see if this can be fixed?
Thank you.

Good luck, because you're apparently the only one who has this issue. I have never had any problems with video or audio MMS messages. However, my only experience with AOSP has been CyanogenMod. Never bothered with any of the others that have been recently released. So, give CM6 a try.
same here. no problems with mms on AOSP
I had the same problem until I tried MIUI...now they all work
Hmmmm. So all you guys can receive a mms that contains an animated gif with cm6 or miui?

You are correct despite what others say. ANYTIME the particular mms messages that you mentioned are sent while on AOSP they fail to download. No questions about it. I'm using the latest cm nightly but it has never mattered. You can only get gifs with sound and such via a sense rom on the evo.
There's a .zip in the Ultimate Droid rom thread someone posted that may help you. I don't have a link off hand, sorry.

Thats what I thought.
I have been banging my head on the wall for some time now trying to figure this out?
Is there a fix for this that you know of? If not, why is this issue never addressed?

What exactly was this a zip for?
Bump.
Wondering why this isnt looked into???
because its not a problem for the majority of AOSP users. if it was a major issue, it most definitely would have been address by cyan. you and the other guy who says it happens to everybody doesnt equal this being a major issue. not trying to me an ass.
Just checked with cm latest nightly. The mms does not download as you mention. I will have to look into this.....
i guess i must be special or something

Hmmmm........ I am pretty sure it is an issue with everyone. Have someone send you an mms that is an animated gif while you are on cm6 and See off you don't get a message failed to download error.

I agree with you. I was on CM6RC2 RC2 and couldn't receive any of those animated gif files. I clicked download and I got the error message that the download was unsuccessful.
However on the brighter side I was able to receive regular texts, video texts, and picture text.

Ya, atleast we are able to receive pics, vids, and texts.
It just gets annoying when I receive something and can't download it.
I wonder if the devs are aware of this?
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
After using CM6.1 RC2 for a few hours, I went back to MIUI, and couldn't receive or send MMS. I then went back to Fresh, and STILL had the problem.
Today, it went away. I was kind of lost.
I don't think that Android natively supports animated GIFs. I think they modified the browser to support it (or maybe it's native in the browser only). I don't know if Sense supports it outside of the browser, but if it does, it's something they included in the Sense image viewer.
If you save a gif image, it wont show animation. This might be connected to your problem.

I remember reading about people having issues sending MMS's under CM, but that it had been fixed in the newest version. When I tried to send a few pics to people a couple weeks ago, the recipient would receive blank messages.
I haven't tried since then. Tonight, I'm trying to send one, and it's stuck on "sending."
Ideas? Fixes?
Thanks in advance!

Hmm!
Are you getting good coverage where you are? I'm rocking the latest & greatest from cyanogen(6.1.1) & I'm able to send pic's through mms just fine.
No MMS problems on my end.
Yeah, I get great coverage. Hmm, did your MMS work right out of install without setting modification?
EDIT: I did a restart. Still same issue; the message sticks on "Sending... " on both 3G and Wifi.

Just a quick thought - are you apn settings correct? They may have got botched somehow - just go to it, hit menu and click reset to default. See it that helps at all.

Gave that a shot, still stuck at "Sending...".
Thread rolled off into second page. Bump!
Ever since I rooted my droid incredible I have had a continuous problem with receiving and sending txt messages. Sometimes it will work and sometimes it won't. I am wondering if it is a ROM problem or a phone problem. I was wondering if anyone could help. Thanks!
What ROM are you using, are you just rooted Stock?
How long has it been doing this?
And yeah, what he said ^
Could be a Rom or you're using or could be your phone itself. I recall several people, including myself, that had problems with mms on CM6 Froyo on the Droid Eris. Some people could fix it using an apn manager, but I could not. I had to move back to the Stock Sense with android 2.1 or a variant like XTR. If mms worked on Stock 2.2 for you, you could try using Virtuous or Sky Raider.

I agree with everybody's suggestions above. You might also make sure your phone is programmed correctly and that the ROM didn't change something critical in that regard. Dial *228 and select option 1.
Good luck!
Some ROMs also have bugs with MMS over wifi... if this is the case try turning wifi off before you send MMS

I know there was a thread on this before, but for some reason I can't find it. Currently I'm using Frosty JB V1 and I know it's not the rom issue it's a general issue.
When I receive MMS from people it shows the picture like it's a video but it's obviously just a picture. Can someone direct me to the thread that has the resolution for this?
Thanks!
That how tmobile handle mms I believe, I use go sms and I don't get the issue

Correct. It's how the stock app works for whatever reason. Go SMS doesn't have that issue.
Hey devs,
Currently running Aristodemos 3.0 with wifi sharing fix, and the final zip that was done.
Currently the stock email application is giving me some trouble. I'm still able to receive messages and open the application to view messages but I am unable to reply and compose messages.
I was able to get a log cat but haven't been able to find out what's causing the problem. Any help would be appreciated. If anyone needs the logcat I can send it to them by pm. Thanks everyone for your hard work

Just an update,
Trying out divide and so far no problems. Will keep an eye on it and let you guys know if it's a viable option until a fix is available.

Getting the same message, thought it was just me. I have tried several roms out in the last week, found this one to be the best. Great job smartguy044 and Team Insomnia!

Agreed, it is unfortunate that there is something wrong with email. I'm not sure what could be causing the problem? I used divide which is a launcher switcher and the email apk that comes with it is working fine. I'm going to try different launchers to see if I can narrow down the problem to just being the lancher

Didn't think about launcher being an issue, will try the same.
So after some more searching it turns out it may be a problem with both the email apk and the exchange services apk (?). If you look in the ADIII thread someone just uninstalled those two apks and then installed them again and it started working again. Let me knows if you have any questions.

Thanks, I did see that and tried it with no luck. Perhaps I didn't do it right so I will look further into it.
I've used a couple of modified MMS apk's and nothing seems to help. I first noticed while sending screenshots. Then for testing, I sent myself a few full size photos taken with the camera. Still look like crap.
Is there a way to fix this? Is there an AOSP messaging app I should be using? I've had all the galaxy phones, all the nexus phones and I recall, I think, that I used to use an aosp MMS apk to resolve my issue. I'm currently using a modified tw mms apk that claimed to increase file size limits, other limits, etc.. Maybe I'm misunderstanding.
Any help towards reaching the goal of high quality, not low res/pixelated MMS messages would be greatly appreciated. Stock TW would be nice but not adverse to using aosp MMS.
Thank you for your time.

im pretty sure picture messages are compressed before they are sent, which means a downgrade in quality.
How much of a downgrade is normal? someone else should be able to answer that better then me

Yeah i wanna know too. Nottach/Wanam used to have the option for max mms size but its been removed for a while. Though i remember when i set it to the highest my mms didnt get delivered. It depends on both carriers involved. Damn txt sucks

I agree.
They look so bad, I won't even send MMS anymore. Today I emailed a couple of pictures to a friend. Which is horribly inconvenient for the recipient.

I guess it depends on how the Rom is tweaked. Mms pictures work fine on the wicked Rom.
