It used to be that when I received a picture and had wifi turned on, 3g would turn itself on briefly in order to download the message. Now, I need to manually turn on 3g in order to receive MMS. I am using Kingdom Rewind RLS 2 as my rom. Anyone know how to fix this?

I leave 3G on all the time (technically). My understanding is that even with 3g enabled, when wifi is on android "disables" the 3g until it's needed, then automatically turns it on, then off when finished, and switches back to wifi.
Is yours set up that way, but not working properly?
I noticed that I have the same problem when 3g isn't enabled.
Also, I don't have an unlimited data plan so I leave 3g off unless I need it so that I don't have to worry about going over on the data.

I don't leave 3g on all the time even with wifi on because I am not always connected to a wifi network.
i've noticed this with some of the newer roms... i just cycle the wifi to get or sent mms.
usually when i receive a mms i get notification that it needs t o download.. i turn off wifi and download and then turn wifi on again. same sending.. turn off wifi.. send mms... turn it back on.
small price to pay for some of the coolest roms available!

I've had to do this since back in the D1 days, I guess I just got used to it...
there hasnt been a fix for mms over wifi on 2.1/3.0 roms yet.. but you will know when there is a fix for it if there ever is one cause im sure it will be all over the Dinc forums
im pretty sure nilp has a work on business gingersense 2.1/3.0

Fix for MMS
I found this over in the development section. I really hope that Joel can work it in to the next version of Kingdom Rewind 3d. Looks to be an APN problem, but the devs have to edit some framework files etc.
See Here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1090359&page=3
Although, it appears that this is done on Kingdom Rls3 so im not sure if its valid or not. Would love to have a solution its the only thing standing in the way of being my daily driver.
BusinessSense was good and it worked, however, the problem there for me was that every time i tried to make a call it told me i was roaming. The fix is to turn off call guard, however, if i actually am roaming i certainly want to know that.
All in all though, the sense 3.0 roms are awesome.

I can't rembemer how I fixed it but the only thing common between my ROMs is my mods to the phone.apk and my build.prop changes. Could also be that I repacked the GS kernel.
Strange
Sorry about that

Sorry for misspeaking there. I have been trying out way too many roms to decide on a daily driver. What was it with yours? I think maybe it was that I couldnt use verizon stuff to get my voicemail.

Hi folks, just wondering if anyone is experiencing signal difficulty today? thought it was my phone(which it still might be!!) but tried 3 different roms, 3 different radio, 3 different kernels, and i can get a wifi connection, i get a network connectiob briefly every now and then, and the signal bars turn green, but i cant make calls or send texts?
I'm on 3 UK and its all perfect
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium
hmm, ok, thanks elliotg. maybe it is my phone then!
just out of interest, could you possibly post the contents of your apn file/s for me, as i have been using dGB rom, which doesnt include any apns, and that is where the problem first arose. i did find some listed online, but if you have a working one there, if youd be willing to let me know so i can check mine and change if neccasary?
Just an update to my last post, I am still getting signal occasionally but it does seem to be dropping off a lot. Also yes I'd be happy to share my apns if you could tell me how haha
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium
ok, can we first clear up, are you having probs or not? your first answer was everything is perfect, then your 2nd says your having problems? haha. and the apn is in settings-wireless and networks - mobile networks - access point names. if you have anything in there, could you possibly write down only the items that have a value. if some say "not set" dont worry about typing them out. thanks in advance
ok, so, my current situation is this. im on redux 2.31.08.lite radio 5.17.05.08 and kernel 2.6.35.13-stable (base kernel that comes with rom). i updated the kernel to thalamas mod8 (latest) which made no difference to my signal problems, but did after about 30 minutes give me wifi error, couldnt even turn wifi on. so went back to the base kernel and wifi is working fine. i can get a connection when calling probably once every 30 attempts? it just shows the calling screen, then ends call and cuts off. if i turn airplane mode on, then back off, i have to wait about 30 seconds to get a signal again, pr even have to manually search, which can take ages, or not work at all. (error while searching). in my head, i think the radio isnt working (which sounds obvious lol) but ive tried 4 different radios and all have the same problems?
im struggling now, is it the phone, or is it 3Uk?
any help will be massively greatfully recieved
For the life of me I can't get picture messages sent through 3g. They won't go through unless I put WiFi on. Anyone experience this or know a fix?

I will say that I was unable to receive them without WiFi. I haven't gone through the diagnostic steps yet to make a good report to the devs because I rarely get them and haven't remembered to do so.
This is on the 9-20120331-SNAPSHOT-epic4gtouch-alpha2 version if that matters using darchstar's FD02 kernel he posted a couple days ago.
If you have time, can you run a logcat with and without your WiFi on so the devs (or even the rest of us) can see what is happening?

I haven't flashed to alpha 2 yet but I've had several problems regarding SMS/MMS on alpha 1
Sometimes I can't send messages at all if they are more than a few words long, sometimes it works fine, I can't receive MMS at all most of the time regardless of the connection.. Other times every msg I receive will come in as an MMS that I have to d-load.. even if it's just a couple words... But I barely have time to flash to another ROM with work and school much less actually track down a problem.. good luck
I don't really know to describe this problem better. I'm running CM10 (lately AOKP's latest build) with default kernels. I've flashed all the radios and tried a bunch of them in solid LTE coverage, I seem to have the same problem every time, which is the data seems to "stall."
It will show full signal, and then if i click a link, it will sort of just sit there, not really doing anything. Eventually it may load, or i give up in patience. Any one have any ideas?

I am using at&t stock rom and not yet rooted. Even I have the same problem. Tried to disable and enable data from the notification but did not help. But, when I turn on the wifi, and turn off the wifi again, it works fine. When wifi is turned on phone disables the data and try's to connect to wifi or shows the available networks, but I don't connect and I turn off the wifi, phone reconnects to the at&t data again and then it works fine. Not sure why.

I can't even run a speed test because it just sits there. Web pages "load" but wind up stalling. Sometimes they finish, sometimes they don't. I have no idea what's causing it. What modem are you on?

May be a good time to contact your cell phone provider for a replacement.
I was on a cross country road trip running CM9 on my GS3 and I kept running into the same thing. A temporary fix was to reboot the phone. Since I got back, I flashed SlimBean and I haven't seen the issue again.
In my case, I think its the SIM card. I used Google Maps/Navagation on my HTC G2 (using a micro SIM adapter) and my phone got HOT, I mean burn your fingers hot (upwards of 57 degC to 60 degC).
If it happens again I'm going to bring my SIM card back to ATT and have them replace it. I did some googleing and it seems like this is common with the Verizon variants of the GS3.

That's the next step... it means reflashing, and waiting for samsung to fix it though, which sucks a lot.
ive had this same problem and it would piss me off! i found out that busybox was the culprit. i uninstalled busybox and cleard my cache in recovery and all was well once again. if any of yall have busybox installed you may look into my solution.
I recently been having this issue also. But mine is a little bit different. Like my phone will say I am connected to "H" for data but when I load a Page it slightly lags switches to H+ and boom Internet works. When I stall for more then 5 minutes it switches back. I'm not sure if it's some battery conserving feature or what but I have no problem against at.

Okay so i flashed the ROM and no other bugs other than the fact that where I live I get such crappy signal that i depend on wifi calling so turning that off is NOT an option. I keep getting the IPService has stopped running any other suggestions to make it stop/fix?? Keeps going even after fix permissions and turn wifi off and back on.... I would post under the ROM but apparently I havent asked enough questions to get to do that.. Sorry for understanding instructions ....
OMG
Okay so either no one has an answer or they think that I am an idiot. the obvious answer for me is to go back to my prior ROM of choice but I like this ROM and would like to give it a fair shake but I do need my wifi calling intact. In my home (the apparent second circle of hell) I get crappy Tmo reception so I depend on wifi to push my calls through. I tried flashing another kernel but the wifi calling is not kernel dependent. Is there something that is being worked on????? Or shoudl i just give up and go back to my old rom?
I don't think anyone thinks you're stupid. I can tell you that I've never seen this error before. Have other people reported this issue?
I dont have wifi to test but you could download the modified mms.apk and see if that helps you. Let me know if the problem still there after that
i just flshed today.. and i get this all day long.. while on facebook... and just having my phone on.. i dont think its an app it might be bad coding?

the message is only when wifi calling is checked regular wifi works fine when unchecking wifi calling ip message goes away. This ROM is great its fast and battery life is good would like to use this rom but wifi calling is important to me because and to many others if you find time in version 3 to make wifi calling work that would be great. Is there anything that we can do to make this service work something that needs to installed or modified? Where do we get this modified mms.apk when searching for this it only mentions modified mms.apk for AOSP ROM's? Will the AOSP modified mms.apk work on this ROM? Thank you so much for all you do and time to make ROM's.

If your looking for the modified mms look under themes and apps .
As for the ip service me and gypsy214 are currently working on an update for universe s4 and also multiwindow for stock rom

Running CM11 on PagePlus. I cannot access the Internet. I was able to at one time. Thought it was the Rom so I flash CM10.1 and Stock rooted rom. I reactivated the phone after the installs. Every time it says the network is connected but I cannot connect to the Internet or send MMS. Starting to think it is the phone. Any ideas?
More info:
IP address is applied. Able to ping ip address but not some other known ip address. Traceroute does one hop to 66.174.216.161, which seems to be a Verizon ISP. Might try playing with apns-config.xml. I had tried the one I had when it was working previously but did not seem to change anything.
I'm new, but had similar problems

I'm not sure the MMS issue has been resolved, as of yet. Last time I check the Development thread it seemed like there wasn't yet a fix. Someone will correct me shortly if I'm mistaken, I'm sure.
The data problem you're having is one that I struggled with for a couple weeks in CM11... I don't know how much help I can be, because I'm not really sure what ended up actually fixing it for my dINC. All I know is that I spent about three hours dirty flashing and restoring from nand backups, sometimes the full backup and sometimes just partitions. I also threw in a *228 somewhere in there. Anyways, Through persistence, and sheer dumb luck, I finally have a pretty stable data connection, as long as I don't use the mode switcher in DUbattery(that seems to mess 3g up until reboot).
sometimes it helps to toggle airplane mode on then off.
Thanks for the tip. I toggled airplane mode on and off. I could then load google in the browser but it would not do anything after that. I have a new inc and an OG Evo coming in. Might have to retire my inc for the kid to play games on. My wife is using and OG Evo with no data or mms problems on 10.1 and I am sort of digging the larger screen. Also might be able to help zach with troubleshooting cm11 for the evo (supersonic).

Glad to know it was not just my phone. I am back on your 2/17 build and was worried there was some leftover firewall stuff even though I wiped everything except emmc and sd-card before the flash.
On another note. I have that other EVO coming in so should be able to load up CM11 and do some logging for you.
So I switched mobile data off this weekend with the silent profile and when I switched it back on using the default profile my data worked.

I'm glad you found a fix! On my dINC, I don't use the profiles, and mobile data crashes randomly. After flashing the March 23rd build, it has gotten somewhat better, but it always seems to skip out when I need it most... specifically.... when I use Google voice search to either dictate text messages or navigate to an address(delivery driver). the latter is especially frustrating, because I only use the navi when I'm already out of the store and can't find something, so no alternative available. Sometimes, even when the 3g symbol is full in status bar, I'll push the voice button and it will say, "cannot reach google *** etc" :crying:
