[Q] Cant send MMS in CM6.1 RC 2?? on tmobile mytouch slide

so i moved up to RC2 of cm6, i used to have this issue with my first mytouch orginal on CM but whenever i send MMS the person just gets a black X.... ive read that it may be an APN settings issue.......??
anyone know how to fix this, and or what the correct US tmobile settings are....id love to send pictures to family, espically since im stuck in another state in a blizzard ) love to show the fam
HELP!!!
edit*** found default apn setting config and my phone seems to be set correct....... any ideas?
Aside from the APN settings I can't think of anything. Maybe call TMO and make sure nothing is screwed up on your account. I've heard that (mostly for data) sometimes your account or some aspect of it has to be reset. I've never personally had that done in 5 years but sh!t happens. The MMS on this phone is crap anyway, my 8100 could send bigger pictures lol. So losing MMS isn't much of a loss IMO.
yea it is sh!tt& but hey what can you do, what i dont understand is i can recive pictures just fine and all but i cant seem to send em...
Have you tried sending one to yourself? Also, are you on wifi? I know that should be old news but the update tmobile sent out a long time ago didn't fix that issue for everyone.
no i havent tryed that.... and i never recived any tmo updates, its a new device about 2 weeks old and was 100% wiped when i put cm on... i always do a clean wipe
and no im not on wifi... purely hsdpa
**edit** sent and recived on my end just fine, but everyone else still reports a red x when sent.... i know alot of em are on verizon.... could this be a carrier conflict seeing as im not on offical supported software??
have you tried using a different messaging app? i had that problem with my g1 and when i tried sending a message with handcent sms it worked just fine

[Q] Receiving 9114 texts? Hmmm?

So, since I flashed to a new ROM I have be getting a copious amount (about 40 a day) of texts from a 9114 number.
I'm assuming this has something to do with Sprint trying to send information to one of it's Stock Apps, because while using the Sprint Lovers ROM for a few days I didn't receive them at all.
Anybody know how to fix this problem, perhaps which stock Sprint Apps I need to install?
Also, I'm using CM7.
That is really strange
is that just recent?
where you located at?
You shouldn't have to install any apps. I don't know of anything that communicates over text message. If possible, backup your stuff and do a fresh install of cm7 because that shouldn't be happening.
Make sure you haven't accidentally signed up from one of those scam apps for a service that charges you a dollar a text message. What are the contents of the messages?

Here's what I found on Sprint Users regarding the 9114 text messages:
Hate to bring this back from the dead but I actually know why this is happening. It's a problem with Sprint Mobile email application that comes with most phones. It's actually quite helpful since it will allow you to get push email (ie instant email or blackberry like email) straight to your phone. The problem is if you uninstall the program or stop using the program without resetting your email information on the server, it will keep sending the email (push) notification in the form of the 9114 text message gibberish. I have the Touch and found out through trial an error and noticing that the texts come at the same time I kept getting emails.
A more decisive fix instead of just blocking the text message sender is by using the Sprint email program and re-enter your infomation for your previous email account. If you don't remember just start sending emails to your various email accounts (allow a few minutes between each) and wait to see if you get a text from 9114. When you find out which email it is, you should register with that same account again.
Once you have done that select re-register under the menu. Don't enter anything after that. It will clear your info off the server and now you can uninstall the email program AND you will stop getting the texts.
So in short, don't blame the gmail or yahoo, it's not their fault. The program is really to blame although it's a symptom of push email which is nice to have for free.
Thanks for the assistance guys, but I've since moved over to Sprint Lovers and it has stopped, very confusing. It appears whenever I use any ROMs that don't have the Stock Sprint Apps I receive the text message. Which is a really agitating problem considering I much enjoy AOSP roms in comparison...
I don't see anything that looks like Sprint Mail here...I was hoping once I switched over I simply just had to finagle that app and I coud move on 9114 free...hmmmm...
I'm sure they are referring to the stock "Email" app; probably isn't named "Sprint Mail". I think they are saying delete your email accounts in your Sense rom, flash your AOSP ROM, and then set up your email accounts again. I haven't experienced this 9114 issue and I've went from Sense to AOSP.....kinda strange.

I haven't used the stock e-mail app though, I pretty much rooted and went to a different ROM the first day I got the phone. (I was coming from an Inspire 4G...which I miss terribly </3 )
Could it possibly have something to do with the Sprint Zone? Perhaps a "Welcome to Sprint, please set up your..." type of situation?

You got me stumped......I'm on an AOSP ROM with no Sprint apps installed and have never received a 9114 text. Weird, very weird.
I'm wondering if it could be caused by the person who had the phone number before I did...if so...I feel like I'm proverbially SOL.
I would really love to rock the new Deck ROM too

Try the Deck 1.0 (2.3.3).....very stable.

[HELP] New texts randomly get deleted!

So I seem to have this HUGE problem. I've noticed this first about 2 months ago. The problem is that my notification light will blink, the phone will vibrate, and a notification for a new text will play. But I go to check my texts, and nope! Nothing! So, I thought it was just whatever. But people actually were texting me and my Evo decided to just delete it for whatever reason. Now this doesn't happen for every new text, I get about 150 a day, and it will do it for around 5 new texts. It gets annoying cuz then I have to text my friends to ask if they just texted me or not since I never got it cuz my phone deleted it. Not to mention I'm trying to patch things up with someone and it doesn't help if they text me and I never reply because I never "got" it.
I can replicate this issue when I play a memory intensive game. I know I'm getting texts because I've tried sending a text from another phone, and it would light up or whatever, but I would NEVER see that text. Plants vs. Zombies can replicate it. So I've considered it to be a memory issue. Maybe my MMS receiver closes as it needs more RAM. So I've been trying to figure out how to lock everything MMS related to memory but with no luck. And yes, I've tried to use MMS apps like Handcent, GO SMS Pro etc. No luck there either. And I've tried to use AMM to bring up the priority of my MMS service, also with no luck as it just resets to hidden app.
I've had this issue on quite a few ROM's. Synergy (Nightlies, RC1, RC2-Currently Running), MikG since the beta days, the Gingerbread leak, Kingdom REVOlution. Even on Froyo! I'm getting desperate to try CM7, I really love Sense but if this issue persists, I might just try CM7, but I wanted to know, has anyone else ever had this problem? Am I just screwed!? I'm afraid to get a replacement because of no root. Any help is greatly appreciated!
I would recommend signing up for Google Voice it backs up all your texts online and because your on Sprint you dont have to change your number Another Pro is that when switching roms it will download your texts for you when you install the App from Market. I am pretty sure this will fix it because your texts will get routed through Google Voice
google.com/voice
go sms pro
To avoid this problem i would advice switching to go sms pro its faster and lighter than the htc stock sms app. ever since I switched i had no probs.

[Q] Voicemail notification absent

I've been having trouble trying to get my voicemail notification to work. I use tdj's cm7.2 and every time I need to dial mail center to find out if I have any new msgs. I've tried adjusting in call settings and even tried third party apps like youmail, but it just wouldn't work. I heard visual voicemail was good, but I couldn't find it on the market.
Is there any way to fix this problem? or does anyone know of a better app I could try? I would really appreciate any help on this. Its getting quite frustrating.
Moved to Q&A.

Can't send SMS.

Hey everyone, I'm having a problem sending text messages. I can receive texts just fine, as well as SEND mms, make calls, use the internet, etc. For some reason though, sending an SMS fails. I'm running JasminROM 6.0 and this problem only just started maybe an hour ago. APN settings are exact and on point. I thought maybe it was the call center number I needed to edit, however, I don't have access to that setting. I guess it disappears when on a custom ROM or something. Anybody else have this problem and/or have a way to fix this? I don't believe it is network related because others with the same carrier are not having any issues. Thanks in advance for any help given!
- Brad
EDIT: Not sure why, but I uninstalled xTouchWiz and my SMS magically started working again.
