Can't send picture messaging, what should I do or check?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I rarely use MMS so I'm probably not the man with the best answer. That said, I think it would help people a lot if you provided more info, like:
What rom are you on?
When did this problem develop?
What changes have you made to your phone recently?
Have you recently frozen/deleted/disabled any stock apps?
Can you still receive MMS?
What is the exact behavior? I.E. does the phone try to send the MMS and it never goes through, or are you getting some kind of error that doesn't allow you to even try to send?
What troubleshooting steps have you already attempted?
As it stands, with the amount of information that you've provided, most answers you get will be completely wild guesses.
My problem started occurring after I rooted my phone, I'm able to receive pictures just can't send them. It says generic network failure

Should get them from now on. When your phone misses a text message ghostly sms app will tell you if you recovered any missing texts and ask if you want to move it to your inbox

Hello People. Here's the scoop. I had a fully functional S-Off Rooted Sprint Evo 4G Running Deck's 1.3 or Cyanogen 7. I had Zero Issues up until 4 weeks ago. I noticed several of my contacts were not responding to texts. Quick phone call confirmed that no text was being received by these people. This happens to about 5% of my friends. It's the same contacts each time.
So, here's what I've tried.
-Searched EVERY Thread/Post/Forum about this and no one seems to have the EXACT same issue.
-Upon recommendation, I flashed the newest version of my ROM's Radios and Kernels (Was SavagedZen but Recently Usually Tiamat) No Change!
-Flashed a Rooted OTA from TheMikMik. Nothing!
-Each time I flashed I cleared Cache, Dalvik (Which Normally was enough) When devs requested Full Wipe, I did so.
-I tried flashing a Rooted Sense Rom, Provisioning, Updating PRL and all those goodies and NOTHING! Same Issue Persists
-Finally out of ideas I wiped phone, ran the S-On Patch, Reverted Bootloader to stock and unrooted fully. Updated all the PRL and Goodies again and, NOTHING! Same Issue Persists!
-Called Sprint and they tried some things and directed me to a Sprint Store. Went to Sprint Store and they updated HTC Software to 5.07. Nothing! Same Issue Persists! The Only Break I had was one time the operator from Sprint Customer Service sent a Refresh Signal to my phone, and those people with issues got 2 text messages from me! Then right back to Horrible, they never got one after. They said they couldn't figure it out and that it may be a hardware issue.
PS. The contacts that cannot receive messages from me can send them to me successfully as well as receive MMS from me. Only Outgoing SMS is dysfunctional to these contacts.
I'm lost. I've flashed many a ROM and learned a ton from you guys so hopefully someone can help!
I'm vacationing to NY in two days and need a fully functional phone before then, so hopefully we can figure this out in the next day

He moved it from the forum that is was in before.
But anyways, it might now be your phone. Your friends probably have low connection or their service doesn't like to be compatible thus causing the issues. Besides that it may just be their phones and they don't realize it. When i say do i send YOURSELF 10 texts, all counting down like 10 9 8 7 blah blah blah, if you get all 10, then its NOT your phone. This still causes your signal to bounce it to satellite and towers etc but it gets sent to you. There's no short cut it takes so its as if your sending to a friend.
Nandroid your current setup, and than flash a mostly stock ROM like TommyTomatoe's Classic.
You don't need to sign into Google. You should start receiving your old SMS messages.
While on this ROM, update your profile and PRL. (Your messages may not come until these steps.)
Now use your nand to get back to your ROM. If you still do not receive SMS, you may have to repeat and do a fresh install of your ROM.

I have been having gmail and sms issues. When I send a text or email 5 out of 10 times it gets stuck on "sending" and never sends. I just tried what you outlined here and it seems to have worked. Easier for me because I am already using TommyTomatoe's Classic rom. I just didn't even think to see if I could update the pro and profile on this rom. Can it be done on any sense rom thats not plain stock?
Anyway...THANKS!!!!
here is a long shot..... if the messages that are not being sent are over 160char make sure you are have sms split selected in mms settings and if you are using a 3rd party messaging like gosms or handcent make sure those settings are matching in the stock app and 3rd party
@Matt, your are welcome.
Any Sense ROM should do.

The Sense Based Rom I flashed was the TommyTomatoe Classic. I can receive SMS fine... It's my recipients that do not get them... It shows as if its sent, but upon phone call to these people, they do not get it. They have 0 complaints of this happening with anyone else...
I tried sending myself messages and it works... I just don't know what to do!

No 1 Before the number... I have a HUGE Event coming up this Saturday. I need to text my whole phone book (5,000 people) which I used to be able to do just fine. Now I am very concerned that I will not be able to succesfully send this message and I could lose 1,000's!
Anyone ever get weird text messages from a number 1007620000 it has s wierd string of alphabets and numbers and the word sisa ?????? The phone number is unknown if you try to search it and when I google it 3 things of interest come up that make sense 1 has something to do with (gov) eavesdropping 2 has something to do with a software called watchdog that cisco systems developed and microsoft and that ciq company are in on as well as others and 3 sisa also stands for Samsung information sharing act WTF!!!! WEIRD I didnt open the message but I googled it because it looked suspicious and then I deleted them I got 4 at the same time like bam bam bam bam I just deleted the text thread as a whole from the left touch button so I didnt have to click on it I was rooted using stock deodexed UVALH2 CIQ REMOVED and it happened right after I flashed xibit v32 (nothing against you wildchild you da man) thats just when it happened so sorry for the book just thought this might be useful can anyone shine any light on this please.
Thank you community for any insight on this.

I was about to ask the same question. I also got the same 4 text messages last night. Thought it was just me who got it. Definitely very weird, I'm still confused as to what those messages were. I'm unrooted by the way and I just got the update yesterday.

weird, im on stock, debloated and got one of these yesterday. when i googled it, nothing useful came up. i just deleted it
EDIT: ok i just found this. looks like an error in tmobiles system. this is not a new thing
Everyone calm down. These are simply system errors in relation to T-Mobile's email systems. You can get the answer straight from T-Mobile (though it takes a bit of searching).
I get these texts occasionally too.

"Unwanted text messages from +10476000000
01-22-2009 01:05 PM - last edited on 01-22-2009 01:07 PM
If you are receiving unwanted text messages from the specific number +10476000000 please read this and follow these steps.
T-Mobile has several kinds of email systems. The email system used depends on what kind of phone you have. The strange messages you are receiving means you have email setup on one specific T-Mobile email system known to T-Mobile reps as "consumer email", but your sim card is no longer in a phone that supports "consumer email".
The quickest way to resolve this is to put your sim card back into your old phone. Remove your email account from the old phone. Once your email account is removed, the consumer email system will stop sending those messages to you. You can put your sim card back into your new phone.
If you no longer have access to the phone with consumer email (Samsung Blast, Motorola W490, Nokia 6263, Samsung Behold, and several others), please contact us. A T-Mobile representative can remove your consumer email account directly from the network."
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
So, if the texts are that bothersome, you can always call T-Mobile to have them remove your e-mail account directly from the network. I'm not sure if that would cause problems on your end though. I know I need a gmail account to even use my phone (Android) that I have to sign into. Though it may be unrelated to that.
Hope this calms everyone down.

and another
Just got off the phone with tmobile. The agent said this would sometimes occur if your account is switching "my tmobile accounts" or you just recently got a new phone/another line. Also, if your phone was tapped you'd be able to notice it due to the fact that if you ever heard of cell phone interference I.e. you get the clicking noises (like standing next to a radio and you phone rings) it would be constant. So yeah to all the f***ers paranoid about being tapped...your not, and even if your were, you could call tmobile and ask them as they are required to inform you due to the fact that tapping any kind of phone is against the FCC laws.

Hello All,
I been having problems with messaging on the S3 i got last month from T Mobile. It lags and a lot of time it says that the messages failed to send. When I send and receive a lot of texts, sometimes the contact list crashes and almost all the names revert back to numbers. ( some still retained their names for some reasons while others lost it) I have to restart the phone to get it back. Once the contact has stopped, I cannot access it until I restart my phone! Any comments or help would be greatly appreciate. Thank all, you guys are the best!!
Go back to the store you got it from and ask for a new one, and explain to them all the problems you are having with the phone. That is what i would do. The worst thing they can say is no.

I've had issues with stuttering notification sounds - only when connected to my bluetooth deck in my car... not sure what's up with that...
Think I'm going to go the factory reset route and see if it does it right after a factory reset...
My phone also defected, but from North Korea.
Seriously though, I'd try to exchange it at a T-Mobile store.
If you have a ****load of messages this will happen. It used to happen on my i9300 when in Jellybean because it has a memory leak.

No because on the i9300 the JB ROMs have a sloe memory leak in them compounded with the extra texts I had saved and more being stored I would run out of memory every few hours. I know before I deleted a couple threads on my T999 I would sometimes see a loading screen for messages or numbers for a split second instead of contact names.

I have had this issue ever since I first flashed root box. When someone using an android sends me a picture (whether automatic retrieve is on or not) all that shows up is the grey box that usually surrounds the picture. If I send a pic from my iPhone, I receive the picture. I have always clean flashed and this happens on official and nightly builds of root box. I recently tried pa and I was able to receive pictures. Does anyone know if this is a known issue? Or something specific to me? -now on beanstalk and issue persists
Any suggestions would be appreciated. If you need any other info to actually be able to help me please ask and I'll gladly supply it.

I have now attached logcats. MMS.txt is when the MMS failed (from android phone), MMS2.txt is from when the MMS succeeded (from Iphone)
I can send MMS to anyone and it works.
Bump.
I have checked my APN settings (even though there is a lot of contradicting info about this, i tried it all) and still no luck.
Anyone? I love this rom but can't stand this. New update.. I can long press the message and save it to my gallery and view the picture there. I would much prefer a fix than a workaround tho.
I am now using beanstalk and I still have this issue! I can send no problem, but can only receive from I phones. Help someone!
