Hi,
gotta problem with MMS.
I don't know is it Arc-MMS or ROM problem, but...
When i'm on EDGE (no 3G signal) i can't receive or send MMS.
After i'm back in "3g" area, MMS comes in/out just fine.
Please any "reg-check" or reinstall app that should help?
TNX !!!

Should really be posted on the appropriate thread, but yes you are right, MMS is a 3G service hence only available when you are within the coverage area. CRC has released stable version ever since this release, but I don't see huge problems staying with this one other than the stable release has probably some performance tweaks.
Hi,
sorry for "bad posting".
Migrating to new stable release.
Although can anyone confirm in the latest release that MMS is working in EDGE area?
Tnx in advance.
I believe that the issue lies on your network operator. Certain network operator assigns a different APN for 3G users and you won't be able to access the EDGE APN when 3G is not available. Hence, you can only connect when you're back to the area with 3G coverage.
Hello, have been using the Revolution rom since I got my DHD but have been having major issues sending MMS messages. I just get a generic Service Failure error message after multiple attempts at sending. Even when trying to send myself an MMS message.
I'm on T-Mobile UK / Orange
I have made sure that:
WIFI is off
GSM only
I am connected to T-Mobile rather than T-Mobile Orange
APN settings are correct
Still unable to send MMS messages, when I recieve them I get them sent to the web interface most Providers use. I have got picture messaging enabled on my T-Mobile phone plan.
Any ideas / help you guys can provide?
I am flashed to the latest Radio for Revolution and just flashed to the 3.6 rom aswell but still have the same issue.
Try GO SMS PRO (FREE) from the market. If it works ok, probably a problem with the stock app.

When you say you have just GSM avtive, does that mean you dont have an active data connection at all, if so that could be your problem when you need data connection to be able to send and recieve MMS
It should revert to edge or gprs.

Easiest way is to test the sim card on another phone or try another sim card on the phone
Hey guys...so I'm new to all this stuff. I have a htc desire cdma phone that i've had since feb of 2011. My roommate has a hero and first week i had my phone he rooted it. Since then I've lost the ability to send/receive mms's. I still haven't had the chance to upload a rom. Wondering if anyone would care to help me finish doing this...any rom that stands out thats pretty simple to install...only real thing i'm looking for is apps2sd and any way i can get function of sending/receiving mms
APN
I think you just need to manually insert your providers APN. In mobile data settings you can set your APNs which you get from your provider's website. I think you can chose between MMS, data etc. APNs.
I have cellcom (Wisconsin, USA) and couldn't find anything on their website...
Try resetting to the default settings, if that's possible.
May fix it?
Else you may try and flash a rom which have the APNs in it.
hi im trying cm9 alpha3 and it seems great juat one problem i can make calls send messages but no internet, it works fine on wireless but not on the mobile network.
any help??
im on virgin in the uk
many thanks
alex
same here...returned to GB because of this
You may have to manually enter your mobile network settings, go to virgin mobiles website and search for manual settings in support section.
I'm with T-Mobile UK and data works perfect.
Good luck to you, and if you sort it, report back how you solved the issue.
I have set correct APN settings and when I enable data, E appears above signal indicator but it is grey which means no internet access ( blue is internet access)
network settings most likely... im on 3UK and no network problems here....although i have found that a few location based apps dont work...
yes i got it working the apn setting were from t-mobile which virgin shares their signal, manually enterted virgins and hey presto it works thanks for the help

APN Error?
Whenever I enter APN settings and save it, nothing happens. Nothing pops up in the APN menu.
when wifi calling is enable i can't send mms messages nor can i send texts to email addresses. when i try i get "no network connection - mobile data is turned off. this message will be sent when mobile data is turned on." well i can't turn on mobile data with wif-calling enabled, i have to turn it off. so the net result is i can only send mms mesaages with wifi calling off. the problem is i live in the sticks where coverage is weak, so with data enabled and wifi calling off, mmss messages are still a hit.miss proposition, and of course phone calls don't work.
i tested a friend's s5, his carrier is metropcs, and i can send mms messages with wif calling enabled on his phone, no problem, but his phone won't receive mms messages with wifi calling turned on.
i called tmobile tech and the first idiot i spoke with told me that it can be resolved with a full factory reset, which of course isn't true. the next tmoible tech i spoke with said this is a known problem with samsung phones, and apologized for the factory reset directions i was given by the other tech guy, he also said this problem does not exist with google phones and a couple of others. after doing a google search there are tons of complaints about this, but no real consensus as far as i can tell, some s4 users seem to be able to use mms with wifi calling enabled, many, many apparently can't.
so is anyone else having this issue? is there a workaround? how about an online texting service that bypasses phone software altogether? any help would be greatly appreciated!
no one else is having mms problems when wi-fi calling is enabled?
forgot to add, my apn setting:
name: t-mobile us lte
apn: fast.t-mobile.com
mmsc: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
mcc: 310
mnc: 260
apn type: default,mms,supl
apn protocol: IPV6
apn roaming protocol: IPV4
i've also tried:
- changing protocols to ipv4/ipv6, and just ipv6
- changing wifi calling connection preferences to cellular network preferred
Are you running complete stock, or are you running a custom ROM?

You need to flash the stock MMS, no modded

i believe i am using the stock mms... i installed the custom rom on top of samsaung's stock rom, and then added different features (mods) to the custom rom via aroma - one of the mod choices was stock or custom mms and i chose stock. or are you saying that all custom roms will automatically make the stock mms custom?

No not all custom ROMs will make the stock MMS turn into custom. Only some. What you can try doing is make a backup of your current system, then do a complete wipe via recovery and reinstall v9 of Insane and don't install any mods the first time. Test to see if you can send MMS over WiFi Calling. If you can, then proceed to install whatever mods you had before but when you get to the selection of which MMS to use, select Stock S4 or if there's an option that says "no choice" then select that.
Basically using a modded MMS, even if its just a themed S4 MMS, MMS over WiFi calling won't work. You need to use pure stock MMS.

i have three other t-mobile s4 (sgh-m919) phones (wife, two kids) that aren't rooted and it doesn't work on any. do you use wifi calling? if so are you able to send photos with your texts when it's enabled? and if so can you answer the following:
1. what connection preferences do you have set in wifi calling, wifi preferred or cellular network preferred?
2. in your apn setting, how do you have your protocols set, ipv4, ipv6 or ipv4/ipv6?
doing a google search this is a big problem t-mobile for s4 owners - a owrkaround seems to be setting wifi calling connection preferences to cellular network preferred. many believe that data (mms) simply can't be sent over the internet, it needs to be sent via the data network, which is what the workaround does, it allows you to keep wifi calling on, but when mms texts are sent they're routed through the cellular network.
Just flash the stock mms again to make sure. I have the fast.tmobile.com apn on IPV4 and I can send and receive mms.. Also make sure you use have the stock mms app as default messaging app, otherwise it won't work
here's nokia's explanation re mms (not sms) and wifi calling:
------------------------------------------------------
FAQ - Cellular data connection or MMS sending doesn't work on my Lumia 521 when using "Wi-Fi Calling"
If using the Wi-Fi Calling feature, check that the Wi-Fi Calling settings are not blocking the cellular data access: Swipe left from the main screen to access the Wi-Fi Calling app (or tap on the live tile on the main screen) and go to settings. Ensure that the option Wi-Fi only is not selected. If you want to use the Wi-Fi Calling feature and still use cellular network when a Wi-Fi network is not available, change the setting to Wi-Fi preferred or Cellular preferred.
Check also that the data connection via cellular network is enabled: Select settings > cellular and check that Data connection is set to ON. Make sure that the airplane mode is not selected in settings > airplane mode. Note that when connected to Wi-Fi calling feature, only plain text messages (SMS) can be sent. If you want to send MMS messages, you need to disconnect from Wi-Fi calling feature. Go to Wi-Fi calling > settings and toggle Wi-Fi calling to off.
------------------------------------------------------
the problem with t-mobile is that when wifi calling is enabled, and wifi preferred is selected in the sub options (connection preferences) as opposed to cellular network preferred, it often breaks the data connection, it often disables it - when you go into network connections and try to register automatically (or manually, or show available networks) with wifi calling enabled and wifi preferred set, you get unable to connect to network errors. anyway some seem to think they can send mms over wifi using wifi calling, but that's not the case as far as i can tell, mms can only be sent through the cellular network.

yes, you can send and receive mms because you have a good cellular network connection, which doesn't have anything to with wifi calling, at least that's how i understand it.
I turned off mobile data and it still sent and I received it.. I don't really think it's dependent on mobile network asfaik.. could be different with windows mobile devices like the lumia

according the t-mobile tech guy i spoke with, google, windows and a couple of other phones have no problem sending data (mms) over wifi, but it's an issue with samsungs... had i known this i wouldn't have purchased 4 s4's for my family.
Try what I suggested earlier I had the same issue with MMS not sending on insane KitKat but it worked after I flashed the stock MMS. I never had a problem sending or receiving MMS over WiFi calling with my S3 or S4, I don't care what that "tech" says

very much appreciate your help but i'm a noob and need a little more explanation. are you saying that i can't use "the sickness" custom rom with the nb4 modem but instead should just reflash samsung's official rom?

No, what I'm saying is to dirty flash insane KitKat and when it asks for the messaging app select stock

when you say "insane kitkat" are you referring to the sicknesss's rom (v9)? if so he no he no longer has aroma bundled with it that allows you to select mod options. so should i instead dirty flash his aroma mod5 zip and select stock mms? if so i already did this when i used his mod5 zip, i went stock with most of the options, including mms. i'll give it another try.
btw i was mistaken - my other 3 non-rooted tmobile s4 phones can send and receive mms over wifi calling, so rooting, the v9 rom, or one of the options i selected in the aroma mod5 pacjage has broken my mms over wifi calling, could it be the kernel i chose (adam)?

Yes that ROM.. And if that's the case then yes, flash the mod zip.. Maybe it is something else conflicting. Did you debloat it, or are you using xposed? Kernel shouldn't affect it, but I use Fenny's kernel
