[Q]Cant sent out MMS - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I didnt notice until lately, cuz I had no problem to receive MMS. I was trying to send pic to friends, but my MMS was pending for a long time. I mean, I checked delivery report, nothing came up. Also, while it's pending, SMS had no problem to be sent. I m not sure it's just me or other has the similar problem here. FYI, i tried Handcent and ChompSMS, both got the issue. Anyone knows how to fix the problem?
I do really appreciate it, Merry Xmax, and happy new year to you guys.

Are you running a custom ROM? Could be due to the fact that the custom ROM has the MMS fix that ups the limit to 5MB so its taking a while for the MMS to get sent. You can try to go to your messages, settings, and reduce the max limit from 5MB down to 2MB or lower.

[Q] CM7 MMS issue

I searched the CM7 thread, but MMS and issue are such vague queries that I was unable to find anything pertaining to my issue.
I can receive MMS fine, but I cannot send at all. I choose the pic I want to send and hit send, and it just disappears. Doesn't show up in the thread of messages. Then when I back out of it, I see the last message I sent that person is (no subject) like it was my pic, but when I go into the thread it is not sent. But it shows up with the pic again like I never sent it. It saves it as a draft. Any time I hit send it does the same thing over and over. I can't even get the pic to delete from drafts. The only way is to delete the whole thread.
I have changed my number in the call settings to show with a +509251xxxx, no dashes or anything. Is there something else I am missing? I have tried several different CM7 builds and all have the same problem.
bump - really? Nothin guys?
Edit: reflashed CM7 and only restored apps+data, no system data and problem was resolved. I assumed since my system data was from a prior CM7 version that it would be no problem, apparently I was wrong. Thank me for all the help
I have the same issue. It doesn't disappear for me, but it just stays there wit the spinning circle thing. It never sends and after a couple of minutes, it says I cannot send the MMS.
Is there a solution without reflashing?
same problem.mine says mms is too large
I have the opposite issue. I've been completely unable to pin down the issue. I can MMS myself pictures and can MMS them to my email, but I cannot receive them. I used to receive them just fine, but now it's an issue.
I've confirmed that I can't receive them from iPhones, BlackBerries, and other Android phones.
I've checked my APN and know it works. I can access Mobile Data.
I've tried third party apps for messaging and that doesn't help.
I've spoofed as an iPhone, BlackBerry, and Custom (Blank) Agent without any results.
I've ensured my phone number in system settings doesn't have any symbols.
Anyone fix this issue?

Uhh, yeah that sucks: I have absolutely no idea, im on GingerVill 1.5 and it works fine, I also flashed sense, regular cm7, miui, and I never had a problem with it..
Try to download handscent or go sms and try that? I doubt that will work but give it a try!

I've got a similar issue -
Using CM7 7.0.3's Mms.apk my phone processes sms no problem, however it will not process mms - send or receive.
Go SMS Pro however will let me SEND picture messages - and Its going through my carrier because in an email to myself it was full of their crap - Sent to you from a Koodo Mobile Customer!
Unfortunately I cannot receive mms; Go SMS implies that it relies on the Mms.apk to forward notifications.
Considering that the Mms.apk isn't syncing with the mmsc properly, I'm assuming the problem lies there. I've even gone so far as to go to one of the phone kiosks and ask to play with their new Nexus S (*drool*) and ripped the apns off of it and uploaded their apn directly to my phone. Still, no dice.
Any suggestions anyone?
I've been having the same problems. Tried lots of things. I was also using Go SMS pro, and thought that was the issue. Tried fooling around with apn, user agent and MMS size etc... Nothing worked except the simple fix:
What I had to do to make it work was to have my mobile network on -- (which I almost always have off from the notification switches). Once it was turned on, it still didn't kick over because I was connected to wifi. So I had to manually disable wifi and then resend the message. It worked fine then.
So:
Turn off wifi
turn on mobile / 3g
resend message
Seems like a simple bug that's keeping the mobile network from kicking on.

[Q] MMS disappearing

Hey guys, I'm having a problem lately.
My MMS messeges are disappearing after downloading. Nowhere to be found. It started after I had installed GOSMS. So I deleted the program, But continued to have the problem.
Its rooted and running Warm Z twopointtwo with the latest Netarchy kernal. All radio/pri/prl profiles are up to date.
Ive read about all texts disappearing but that is not my problem. Only new MMS are disappearing. Not all the time, but sometimes it happens. I can't find them in Handcent (default text program) nor the stock message program.
Go back in a ways in the thread. When I get new mms they are time stamped from whatever server they are coming from, so they appear to be received about 6 hours earlier and pop up in between old texts.
Im still not seeing them. Could they be auto deleting from the time stamp? I have my MMS limit set to auto delete at 10 because I get alot of MMS's.
You could try increasing the limit just to see if that works. Do you have a limit on txt too? I would increase the limit on both. And I,m sure you already knew this, but when you reach the top of your message thread you can hit the botton to show more messages. I would just keep going back until the first message. They are in there somewhere.
Thanks. I'll try that. I do have them limited to 225 texts per person because I text alot. I'll remove all MMS from the convo and see what happens next time this happens, If it is indeed farther back in the convo. It's just odd I've never had this problem before I installed gosms. I have been using the ROM 3 week prior. the night I installed gosms is the night it started messing up.

T-Mobile US Baseband CM7

Ok so yesterday I installed CM7 RC1 and I gotta say that I am LOVING IT! It's just so much better than the stock FW. Anyways apart from the problems that I already knew I was going to have (Flaky Wifi, Choppy Vid Recording) I can't seem to send picture messages to other people. I send a message to someone and they can't download the msg or picture.I am thinking that I might be on the wrong baseband, but I'm not too sure. I'd appreciate any help regarding this. Calls and SMS are still fine tho.
It is their problem. If you can send pic, and they being able to receive it is ok, but downloading it is a problem in their data. Need data plan to download mms
Got a Headache? It's all in your Head.
No, you don't need a data plan to download MMS. My T-Mobile US defy has no data plan and I can send and receive MMS without a problem. I do have small mms photo issues tho.
Before I went from the Stock FW to CM7, I was able to send picture messages perfectly, but now no one can see my picture messages!

[Q] Can't send message right now. Too many many unsent multimedia messages

The thread title is the error I'm getting. This, from what I can tell, is not the wifi issue.
I'm stock, rooted and I use GoSMS.
I have noticed recently that when I try to send a picture message that is the large clear resolution that is shows up pending for a long time and eventually wont send, probably due to it's large size. To resolve this, I have started doing the smallest resolution, and thus smallest size when I know I'm going to be sending it to someone.
This works to make sure it get sent, if it decides it can. I get the "Can't send message right now. Too many many unsent multimedia messages" To try and fix it I close GoSMS and all other apps, but usually it takes a reboot to get it to go through. There shouldn't be any messages trying to send, as they will usually give an error saying the message couldn't be sent. I don't like to delete messages so I have one thread with 8000+ messages, mix of sms and mms, so going through and deleting all of the sent messages isn't really an option.
I cannot replicate the problem right now to test and see if using the stock messaging app would fix the problem.
Is there some folder or something that stores the pending outgoing messages that I could look at and see the "unsent multimedia messages" are that cause this error?
Is there some other underlying issue, some kind of buffer, relationship between received mms and sending, or anything else like this?
Any help would be appreciated.

Can't send SMS.

Hey everyone, I'm having a problem sending text messages. I can receive texts just fine, as well as SEND mms, make calls, use the internet, etc. For some reason though, sending an SMS fails. I'm running JasminROM 6.0 and this problem only just started maybe an hour ago. APN settings are exact and on point. I thought maybe it was the call center number I needed to edit, however, I don't have access to that setting. I guess it disappears when on a custom ROM or something. Anybody else have this problem and/or have a way to fix this? I don't believe it is network related because others with the same carrier are not having any issues. Thanks in advance for any help given!
- Brad
EDIT: Not sure why, but I uninstalled xTouchWiz and my SMS magically started working again.
