Mms not working? - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I have been running incredibly re-engineered for a couple weeks and everything has been fine. But now I can't receive or send any picture messages. Does anyone else have this problem and does anyone have a solution? I'm also using Handcent. Idk if that will make a difference or not.

I have had a few issues with MMS. The only time I experience it is when I try to send to my girls iPhone. Weird.

Its an apn issue its a very common issue on multiple different roms. The solution I impliment when this happens to me is to make an nand backup of my current setup and restore back to nand that I know mms works. After you back to a valid mms setup install apn backup and restore from the market. Use it to backup your current apn. Save it as "good mms". Now nand back to the restore you made earlier. Download apn backup and restore again but this time make a back up of the current apns save it as "bad mms" now use the program to delete your current apns. Once deleted reboot. After the reboot use the program to restore the "good mms" file. Make sure wifi is off and try to send an mms if it works your all set if it doesn't try one more reboot and you should be good.

Synergy Rls1 MMS not working

Has anyone else had an issue with this. I have tried for 3 days to fix it. Please help!

Please post what steps you have taken to fix your issue. It will help others troubleshoot. First thing I recommend is opening mms in Titanium Backup and wiping the data, then reboot and test. If you would be more descriptive with your questions you have a better chance of getting help.
Here is a nice video.

No, please post it but ONLY if you have it on hand easily. We can search for it. That thread is so popular its long and hard to follow unless you can dedicate some time to it every day.
Thanks for the heads up on it.
Update: Found it - this may help

Handcent won't work unless the stock messenger app does so lets just deal with stock for now. Like I said earlier, try uninstalling it then reinstalling it.
Switch R/W to R/O, try moving Mms.apk from /system/app to your SD card with Root Explorer. Back out of the Root Explorer and Hot Restart your phone. When your phone boots up the messenger app will be gone.
Move the Mms.apk from your SD card back to /system/app, switch R/W to R/O to first. Long press on the Mms.apk check off all of the permissions but leave "Special Permission" alone. Switch R/O to R/W and back out of the app and Hot restart your phone. The stock messenger app will be back. Try sending or receiving an mms.

I wus having dat problem.. all u have to do is go to settings. System updates .. update profile and dat should fix ur mms
Sorry I haven't had much time. Been wrkin like crazy. I haven't had a chance to try to fix it. I deleted handcent and that stopped the duplicate txt problem as it was a glitch in the app that has yet to be fixed. My txt and mms only come through when I pwr cycle my phone. This is what's annoying. Will try to solve the issue in the AM. Thanks for all input...

Had to do this for Kingdom 7/23 but it seems there is an apn issue. Download apn backup/restore from market and use the fix from here.

Press the thanks button if I helped you.
I am having the same issue. I haven't been able to resolve at this time. I tried wiping data, then removing the app with Titanium. I then reflashed the synergy rom and still no luck. I looked at connection under messaging and all fields were blank so I tried manually putting in the info. User= Production, mms protocol =WAP 2.0 and mmsc= htttp://mms.sprintpcs.com. I have went to system and updated my profile. I backed up apn, checked for errors and then restored. At this point I'm stuck. I am going to try another of the methods below. Will keep watching this thread and post if something works.
So I rolled back to rooted stock and tested mms. Works fine. extracted mms from root and saved to sd/ rebooted to saved synergy back up. mms gone again. wiped data/uninstalled mms. installed extracted from stock mms. still no go! Next step wipe phone/reflash synergy/I cannot remember if mms was working with synergy at first or not. Used titanium to restore data and that may be where issue occured. If anyone has success, please post
I'm in the same boat, ladies and gents. APN settings are correct, done the Profile update, reinstalled the ROM numerous times. Stock Rooted ROM relays MMS fine, boot into recovery, wipe Davlik Cache, install Synergy, update Radios, reboot into ROM, and all is well BUT the MMS. Profile update, no luck, APN backup / restore, no luck. Cleared cache and Data from Messages app. Running out of ideas here, and I don't want to revert to my old nandroid of the rooted stock ROM.
Welcome to my world. Got a friend at work who just installed synergy God-mode the other day and his mms is working fine. checked his settings and the only difference I could find was in settings:connection- the name said Sprint instead of Production. Changed mine to that and still a no go. My sister was trying to send me a picture of the oceanfront in Florida and ended up having to email it to me. I love this rom, but this could be a deal breaker. Moved all backups to pc and am about to flash a "virgin" (as apposed to resoring the backup) synergy to my phone and test mms before restoring any data with Titanic. If it works I will only restore totally 'unrelated' apps one at a time and not all system data. Here we go again. Will post results.
Here's the latest....wiped data, wiped cache, wiped Devlik..reinstalled entirely new copy of synergy rom and mms working! Sent pix to husbands phone..he got it..sent another back to me... I got it. No extra apps installed or restored just yet. Very carefully restoring apps but no system data. Will post if still working.
Broke down, reloaded the ROM after doing a factory reset and cache wipe, restored a handful of Apps, and it works. Ti Backup, thanks for the help!
And more Thanks due to Sherry.

[FIXED] GO SMS Pro Group Text/Messaging

So on my NS4G, I used GO SMS Pro for group texts. However, on this phone, it seems like the MMS (group texts show up as MMS) isn't being downloaded on 3G. I can't send group texts either on 3G. However, on Wifi, it works fine. Is there a set of APN that needs to be changed or something for Sprint?
Not sure why it would work fine on NS4G on Sprint, but not this phone.
Thanks
EDIT: Got it fixed. Somehow the APN was screwed up. Had to delete the old APN and install the correct one. Everything is working as it should now.
Are you using Google Voice now? Google voice doesn't work with MMS's

No, I only use GVoice for voicemail. I use my regular cell # for texts/sms/mms. With Go SMS Pro, when you send group texts, it gets converted to MMS. My problem is that on 3G, it doesn't work; the texts never get sent. However, on wifi, it works fine.
Seems like mms works on stock messaging app on 3G, but with stock, you can't send group texts. On Go SMS Pro, mms only works on wifi, but not on 3G.
Can anyone else try sending mms using Go Sms Pro on 3G and see if it works?
Thanks

Could you post a step by step tutorial for this by any chance?
I'm having the exact same problem and I'm not sure on how to reinstall an APN
I got it from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30536253&postcount=2
This is what I did:
1. Install APN Backup and Restore from the play store
2. Make it an system app (either use root explorer or other file manager to move it there and make sure the permission is set)
3. Reboot
4. Open the app, click menu, and disable ICS check
5. Backup the APN (this way you have it backed up just in case)
6. Delete APNs
7. Use this APN that is from GS3 Sprint to restore APNs
8. Reboot
Hopefully that should fix the issue. I'm not sure if there's some default APN from LGOG, but I don't have that one.
If it does not fix your problem, you can always restore your older APN that you backed up.

Not sure if this fixed anyone else's Go SMS Pro group messaging mms problem but it didn't fix mine. However I did find that if I just turn off LTE (4G) and just use CDMA (3G) group messaging works just fine. Hope this helps.

[Q] Help! I Need Sprint's APN's! (APN's got wiped after upgrading to 4.3)

Since I upgraded to 4.3 I no longer have any data connections (aside from WiFi). I realized my APN's have completely been erased. Can anyone tell me what the sprint APN's are supposed to be, so that I can restore them? I'm open to alternative fixes as well. Please let me know!
Same thing happened to me. Now my radios are messed up. I had cell but no digital. My cell was on roaming unless i had wifi and an activie wifi signal. I did revert back to the MOAR Rom which at that point I had data but no cell. I entered this, ##72786# into my dialer which gave me back my cell but then lost all data. Repost if you find something that makes your phone and data work like it did before.

I would say to try to restore to factory using this method or you could try this method to try and restore your APN's, BUT for this you will need either wifi or data to access the Play store to get APN Backup&Restore. I would follow method 1, in the APN post, for best results, as long as your phone is still rooted. Of course, you will not be backing up your APN's because you don't have any, but it gives you APN file to download and restore. Read very carefully. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the interest and replies! I was successfully able to restore my APN's after doing the following:
1. Backup current ROM (the one with the ****ed up APN)
2. Flash to stock-ish ROM (the one with correct APN info)
3. Install and run APN backup (using APN backup restore APK found on XDA)
4. Copy APN backup files somewhere safe (Because the APN backup restore folder kept disappearing upon re-install)
5. Restore backup ROM (the one with the ****ed up APN)
6. Install APN backup restore via apk, make it system app via titanium backup (OR ELSE RESTORE WILL NOT WORK FOR 4.3), and RESTORE.
HOPE THIS HELPS SOMEONE!

MMS Restore

Anyone try to restore MMS from another Android phone?
I use SMS Backup and Restore to backup and restore SMS and MMS on my 6P whenever I do a factory reset. It has always worked in Marshmallow and 7.0. I am running 7.1 beta on the 6P and I used the cable to transfer the data to the Pixel. It offered to copy SMS, and it did, but it didn't include MMS.
So I went to my trusty app and backed up all my SMS and MMS and then transferred the xml to the Pixel, where I deleted all the messages and restored the newly created XML with SMS and MMS. Again, I only have SMS on the Pixel. This sounds like a 7.1 problem, and it could certainly be an incompatibility with SMS Backup and Restore, but wanted to see if anyone has been successful with this.
Did you have any luck with this. I am also trying to restore my MMS and have had no luck when I use SMS backup and restore my messages are completely out of order
I finally got an answer from the developer after a long time, and they suggested I try the restore again. I did and it appears to have worked. I was worried I would have duplicate messages, but the app inserted the MMS content in the right place without messing with the SMS.
I don't know why it didn't work the first time. Not sure why your result was different and it was out of order though.
