I recently loaded CM7 RC2 onto my girlfriends EVO. I wiped everything before hand. She always sends me pictures but every time I try sending her a picture she never receives it. I've tried sending pictures to multiple people and they all receive it. Is there some kind of issue with CM7 and MMS? If so how can it be fixed. I updated the PRL this past weekend.
Well is your 3G, you should have it on when sending/receiving mms messages or it'll take painfully long to send/receive, or not at all.
Her 3G is always on. I don't ever turn it off.
What messaging app are you using?
if you send her text with the picture msg, does she get the text and not the picture?
Shes using handcent. She doesnt get either text or picture. Ill try this weekend using the stock messaging app.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
In her receive settings, does she have auto-retrieve on?
Not sure, she cant receive pictures from others either. I'll take a look this weekend and post back if I can't figure it out.
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!
Ive seen a few threads about this, as well as several on the TMo boards and other boards about people not being able to send or receive MMS over wifi after the ICS update. I also had this issue and called TMo. I spoke to their 2nd level support, and the solution per Samsung is first send a picture to yourself via gmail (the gmail acct associated with your phone) while on wifi. After you receive it, you should be able to send and recieve MMS over wifi from there on out.
It worked for me, so I thought Id share with you. I cant speak for custom ROMS as Im on stock rooted.
edit: the symptoms I was having was I would send an MMS, and it would sit at sending. If I received an MMS, I got the notification of a new text with a download button. Hit that, and it sits at download. FYI I just checked my wifes SGS2 and she's on Darkside 2.7 and had the same issue. I perfomed the fix above, and now it works. So it appears this fixes the problem on GB as well.
Do you send the picture to yourself through a computer to gmail? Or using the phone to yourself?

Yup, nothing after a reboot either.
yeah, i just tried the same thing and nothing happened, however, mine won't even switch to 4g to send/receive mms
Damn sorry guys...apparently its the Samsung fix and it worked on mine and my wifes phone...

bummer. wish this would have worked for me.
Sorry after the reboot, it didn't switch to 4g anymore..
For people who have 4g turn on just turn off mobile data in settings then do it

So just to make sure, do you send the email to your Gmail address through the messaging app or through the Gmail app? I would love to get my MMS working with the ICS update.
I have tried this several times, doesn't work for me. Any other suggestions?
It might be different for me as well because I am using Straight Talk (on tmobile network) but even if i enable WIFI Calling, it won't work and just shows error.

I got this to work. I repeated #3.
When sending the email, use the messaging app.

I have the same issue. For me at least the issue seems to be tied to GOSMS, i tried using HandcentSMS and it worked fine over wifi.
H812 on Rogers,
I can't send mms using Google messenger whilst I'm connected to wifi. I can receive no problem however. In order to send I must turn wifi off. Bit of a pain...
Edit: works perfect using stock messaging app.
Anyone else notice this?
Note: I know I can't use wifi to send or receive. That's not an issue.
Some mms apps are not smart enough to switch to cell data to authenticate. See if there is a setting to send via cell

No such setting. Also, stock messaging app has no issues..
Hey guys,
I'm running rooted oos 4.0.2 and have run into a weird issue with MMS.
No matter which messaging app I use I can only receive and send MMS when connected to a WiFi. If I only have mobile data then it just shows the load button until WiFi is connected and then it is sent or received.
Anyone has any ideas on how to solve this?
Thanks!
