strange mms issue. - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

so ever since i started flashingn different roms ive had a strange mms issue. when i try to send an mms, the recipient receives a blank text. except for my mother.
at first i thought it was carrier related, ive got tmobile, shes got us cellular (basic messaging phone), but my girlfriend who also has uscc, doesnt get them. so i thought, maybe a smartphone on uscc will get it, nope. then i tried sending to phones on vzw, sprint, and att. all get blank texts.
i have not tried sending any over wifi. currently on cm6.1.1, kernel version 12.28b.60.14eU_26.03.02.26_M
anyone have any ideas on how to fix?

[Q] Cant send MMS in CM6.1 RC 2?? on tmobile mytouch slide

so i moved up to RC2 of cm6, i used to have this issue with my first mytouch orginal on CM but whenever i send MMS the person just gets a black X.... ive read that it may be an APN settings issue.......??
anyone know how to fix this, and or what the correct US tmobile settings are....id love to send pictures to family, espically since im stuck in another state in a blizzard ) love to show the fam
HELP!!!
edit*** found default apn setting config and my phone seems to be set correct....... any ideas?
Aside from the APN settings I can't think of anything. Maybe call TMO and make sure nothing is screwed up on your account. I've heard that (mostly for data) sometimes your account or some aspect of it has to be reset. I've never personally had that done in 5 years but sh!t happens. The MMS on this phone is crap anyway, my 8100 could send bigger pictures lol. So losing MMS isn't much of a loss IMO.
yea it is sh!tt& but hey what can you do, what i dont understand is i can recive pictures just fine and all but i cant seem to send em...
Have you tried sending one to yourself? Also, are you on wifi? I know that should be old news but the update tmobile sent out a long time ago didn't fix that issue for everyone.
no i havent tryed that.... and i never recived any tmo updates, its a new device about 2 weeks old and was 100% wiped when i put cm on... i always do a clean wipe
and no im not on wifi... purely hsdpa
**edit** sent and recived on my end just fine, but everyone else still reports a red x when sent.... i know alot of em are on verizon.... could this be a carrier conflict seeing as im not on offical supported software??
have you tried using a different messaging app? i had that problem with my g1 and when i tried sending a message with handcent sms it worked just fine

[Q] Unable to get texts from one person

So this isn't Dinc specific but as at least half of the problem occurs on a dinc I thought I might as well post it here.
I just recently had a problem with one of my associates where we are unable to send/receive text messages from one another. I have turned on received reports in the default messaging app and all my texts say received by the recipient.
Both of us can receive and send texts to other people and calling between us still works. I have wiped my phone, and gone with a stock Virtuous 3.2 rom and it still doesn't work. They are on a blackberry, also on Verizon if that helps.
I think this has something to do with your associates phone. My girlfriend's phone does the same thing, she won't receive messages or sometimes even calls. She has the new blackberry curve on VZW. We tried *228'ing it and that didn't help so we took it to the store, it was swapped and now it works like a charm.
It's not your phone, especially if you wiped it clean. Trust me.

[Q] AT&T Not recieving some MMS, APN issue?

ive changed my APN settings, even though i can receive from friends using iphones, but in particular another person i just get a blank text rather than the picture. Anyone else encounter this?
No it works perfect for me, must be a defective phone
shut it T-mobile!

[Q] Can't receive text messages

Hi, I can't receive texts on my One V. It still happens if I do a full wipe, persists across all roms. Sending texts is fine, data is fine, calls are fine, so I don't know what's going on.
Any ideas?
most likely your APNs are incorrect.
check with your carrier AT&T for the correct ones and change them
I don't have at&t, that information isn't up to date.
Anyways, I fixed it. It involved having my account re-provisioned through customer support, and then flashing back to stock and running the app used to activate your phone. Let's hope I never have to do it again.
awesome

SMS Troubles - Can Send but Cannot Receive

Hi all. I am not on AT&T so I apologize for posting here but I wasnt sure where else to seek help. Hopefully someone may have an idea.
I recently got a phone on the Pelephone network in Israel. It is a Galaxy S3.
I am able to send SMS texts with no problem. I am also able to receive texts from other phones in Israel no problem.
For the first day or two everything went OK but then suddenly I stopped receiving texts from my friends in the US. They receive mine, but I cannot receive theirs.
My company tried diagnosing this with carrier. They insist everything should work. All the right plans are activated, etc. They even swapped out the SIM. After that the SMS worked fine again for about a day, and then, like last time, stopped working...so people in the US can still receive mine, but I cannot receive their replies anymore.
They are replying in the same way as in the past (replying to my text) so it did work...it just stopped.
I have tried a factory reset which didnt help.
Any ideas?
