[Q] MMS Error? - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been running Synergy, the newer version on the page, for a few days. It's amazing, so far! I only really have one compliant. Ever since I flashed, MMS hasn't really been working at all. It'll say downloading, then give a generic network error. I did the APNS fix I found on a forum awhile ago, restarted the phone, and still nothing really working. The internet works, it can connect to wifi, all the apps have been working, but I just can't receive MMS! Sending doesn't work, either! It just hangs with the little swirly icon handcent uses to designate a message in progress.
I tried it using handscent and the standard messaging app, but still having errors. Occasionally on handcent, it even shows me as having sent a MMS I received and still doesn't work. Is there any clear fix for this? Thanks!

Just gonna bump this, gonna try clearing everywhere and reinstalling. Already tried just reinstalling it and the theme.
Anyone know a fix?

Try deleting telephony.db file located in /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases. Delete it and reboot your phone.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App

I have this same exact issue. And if you go into the settings>applications>all applications>scroll down to messages>clear all data>force stop>full restart of the phone, not hot restart you will be fine. The only problem with that is if you are using something like Handcent or Chompsms you will get two notifications. Very annoying as I use Handcent. I found that somewhere else and have been doing it 2 or 3 times a day.
I am running the 08511 Synergy right now, I went to that because I thought it was the rom I was on before causing the problem. I have tried to find that file to delete but it is not on my phone.
/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases When I get into the second data file there is no com.android.providers.telephony. I have com.polarbit.recklessracinglite. I am using estrongs file explorer.
There is now and edit to this, and I have not yet submitted the original post yet. I went into the menu on estrongs and turned on root access and found the file and deleted it. I am going to attempt to try this now.
I hope it works.

Ever since I rooted and flashed my first rom CM7.0.0, full wipe/reset, I had this issue aswell. reluctantly though after flashing CM7.0.3 and not being on wifi 24/7 I had found that my issue was fixed by being on 3g. Still does not work with wifi but I can send/receive MMS being on 3g. I have been using Handcent since purchase of this phone and I also ran into the issue of notification showing an MMS was sent but the receiver was unable to view it when sent on wifi but was able to sent with 3g
This probably does not help much with your issues, also since I've seen MMS topic issues quite often. But my 2cents.

How to fix Mobile Data/GPS issue?

Hey, for some reason my mobile data/gps decided to stop working this morning.
I used my data on my way home from work last night, set the phone to charge and when I left I noticed I had no data connection.
I check throughout the day and nothing but I continued to get text messages and calls.
Sending MMS message also seemed to have stopped working.
Is it something thats messed up with my phone? I tried changing settings in the ROM, going back to stock, nothing seemed to have worked. Any ideas on how I can fix this?

Call your provider and confirm that you still have a data package on your plan. Im not sure how long you had your phone or if you got a new phone but whenever i switch between phones and ATT scans for the new IMEI number and it doesnt match what they have, they always kick my data off and then i have to call them to have it added back.

Nexus MMS Issues

Hi xda i've had a problem with my new galaxy nexus with sending and downloading any MMS message.
Basically I noticed the issue today as it was the first time a friend sent me a mss on my new device and I could not download it. I tried messing with the APN, Auto-Receive and turning WIFI off and I still could not get it to download or send MMS so I decided it must be a issue with the device.
My phone came with stock yakjuxw 4.0.4 but I flashbooted it to 4.1 without root and ive had no issues other than this MMS issue. It is not my sim as I tried sending and receiving MMS from my old Blackberry and it worked fine.
My device is a unlocked GSM device and I am based in Australia.
Can anybody give me some insight on what to do?
EDIT: I looked at CatLog while trying to download the msg and I got the following which it kept repeating if it means anything:
GC_CONCURRENT freed
WAIT_FOR_CONCURRENT_GC BLOCKED
Ps: My first post of now many
99% of the time it's APN related.
Does your friend have an iPhone? I have horrible problems getting MMS from iPhones for some reason.

I've experienced similar issues in the past, and had success with going into the APN settings, hitting the menu dots, and selecting the reset to default option. Send some of the settings or data got corrupt at some point (even though everything looked OK)

I have a similar problem on both of our nexuses (nexi). Mine is rooted and my wife's is 100% stock. MMS send fine most places, but anywhere that has a wifi network seems to keep the MMS from sending. The picture will just sit there with 'Sending' next to it for days before you realize it never sent. It wont even send once you leave the wifi area. If I send the message when i'm not near wifi, it sends fine. I realize this is of little help, but you're not alone anyhow.
This is my first visit since this problem and I figured out the problem was to do with my carrier. I called them and my MMS was set to use blackberry servers. They put me back on their network and its worked since

invalid package file

im getting invalid package file errors when trying to download Instagram from the market. ive researched and done all the suggested fixes i.e. clearing play store data google services framework data, cleared bothe the cache and the dalvik cache and im still getting these errors. my wife and i are both having this problem right now, she is running rooted stock and so am i. does anyone have any ideas? ive even don a full wipe and re flashed my rom and nothing has worked.i really dont care that I cant have it but my wife is getting irritated wich means im getting really annoyed. any help would be greatly appreciated.
if there are no more techniques i can use would someone be kind enough to send me the apk? thanks again.
EDIT: all is well found an apk file.
Mods you can delete this post if you need or want to PROBLEM SOLVED.
I'd like to add a little to this. I have experienced this more recently while trying to update my apps. The more commonly known techniques did not work for me as well. Everything from clearing cache in the app and through recovery, to a lesser known trick using the browser and the play store website.
I did find that when all else failed, I toggled my wifi off and used my data to download/update my apps and did not have the invalid package issue. A technique so simple, I had to chuckle because I flashed and re-flashed multiple roms and restores. I was getting so annoyed at the failure of my app download/upgrades. So this makes me think it might have something to do with google servers and my wifi connection, which is strange since it recently randomly started to happen.
Just a little of my thoughts with this ever annoying issue.
For future reference, if u can't find the apk, there's an app called hideman. Its a VPN app. Just install that, connect to the server thats displaying, go to the market and install the app giving u the error. All those other solutions didn't work for me either but with the hideman app it worked beautifully.

I tried that briefly. I personally don't trust it. Switching on my T-Mobile data worked best for me. Thanks for adding another option though.
I have tried all suggestions except using 3g or 4g. My tablet is wifi only, it does not have cell service. I also tried hideman vpn and still get error. I am trying to get lotus map app. Contacted them they only knew to clear catch and data. Any help would be appreciated.
This started happening on all three phones in my house. So im inclined to believe its a problem with the play store itself

[Q] Am I stupid? mms cyanogenmod and paranoidandroid

Hi all,
I have been hunting around for the last three days and cannot find a unified answer as to why MMS does not work on my i747. No MMS function is kind of a deal breaker. I have changed APN settings a number of times to no avail. Switched from PA to CM and back no wipe and full wipe etc and still no dice. Does anyone have any solutions that are repeatable? If so I would love to make it known.

Does everything else work? Like phone calls, texting, and cellular data? If so, more than likely APN related. Who is your service provider?
Yeah. Everything else is fine. Sms is good and quick. Data speeds are tip top. Mms messages just stall out at "sending" I use ATT in Colorado.

Well if everything else is working properly, then I'd almost bet it's APN related. Double check, and make sure everything is entered properly, periods,spaces, capitalization. If so, and it still doesn't work, did u make a backup of stock before u ever flashed a custom ROM? If so, restore it and see if they work. Also, have u updated your modem?

Can you receive mms messages? Because I recently couldn't send picture messages, but could receive them. Turns out picasa uploader had some corrupt data. I would make sure that app isnt frozen or accidently uninstalled
Some of the newer ROMs have issues with resizing the image being sent - it is larger that AT&T will allow. I don't remember what thread it was in but someone mentioned that there was a change made to the mms.apk that caused the issue. They posted an APK that they pulled from a ROM from June (I think it may have been a CyanogenMod nightly).
--edit--
I think it was polobunny that posted it. I'm too tired to look for it but his post in reply to fastest963's post on a possible CyanogenMod resolution to the issue in the thread listed below.

I had that same problem with Slimbean. I sent them a logcat and the fix had something to do with "the lack of hugemem for kernel".
Not sure if this is applicable, but this guy posted a fix on a thread for MMS issues on a 4.3 ROM. Perhaps worth investigating?

umm...
what carrier are you? bell? rogers? ect...
i run pac on bell and get mms fine.
I had the same issue as the op. I use the app handcent SMS app from the play store and that fixes the issue sometimes. I was on cyanogenmod 10.2 when I had the issue.

So it looks like I was suffering from the ATT/cm photo resizing issue that was referenced a few replies back. The most recent nightly addressed it and it seems to work well now. Going to try to send a bunch of pictures of various sizes to verify its functionality but it looks like people with ATT and i747s should be on an even playing field on CM. I wonder how soon paranoidandroid will have this update.

I have had this issue on almost all ports and CM roms. Compounded by living in a poor service area. The only consistent fix for me is what Bruce Lee suggested and use a 3rd party sms, I like GOsms personally. Actually I like stock better so I turn off notifications in Go and greenify it until I need to send a pic.

I dont think I've tried again after fixing permissions so ill try that. Thanks. If its that easy, I'll be both happy and pissed that I didn't try that. I noticed earlier in this thread someone said something about the picassa uploader. I usually freeze that app, and was just searching for what it does. If you don't mind me asking, are you aware of any issues that may cause in sending MMS? Seems to only be involved with uploading to an account, which I dont have.

Only problems I've had with MMS are as follows:
"Sending" bug - either fix with "Fix permissions" in recovery, or just using a different mms.apk from a ROM it did work on (4.3)
APN settings - only happened once on a 4.2.2 ROM, don't remember which
Never used picassa uploader, or froze it (I don't use TiBu). But recently with the 4.3 ROM's I've tried fixing permissions is all it's taken for me. Just to be safe I've made it a practice to Fix Permissions 3 times before rebooting, also clearing cache/dalvik

Ok. Thanks. I just noticed newest CWM doesnt have fix permission so i did it through scripter. Only tied once though. It didn't work with that one try. I have also tried pushing new mms.apk but no luck. Ill try a couple more fix permissions and try again. Always nice to have new oprions for this fix so thank you again for the response.

I'm currently using novaGen ROM cm10. I tried different MMS.apk from his mrom and also a couple themed aosp apk's I grabbed from somewhere. The weird thing is, I use cool tool to monitor data sent and speed, and I can see data slowly going out but they never complete. However gosms worked on the first try. I used TW ROMs like Goodness for a long time with the same results. I also just got a new s3 cause my IMEI and or my hardware got borked and I lost my backup, so ive eliminated the phone as the issue. I do live in a tough service area but still after 45 min it fails. I get around 25% signal strength. I have tried in a better area in the past but not too recently. Same results.

[DATA][FIX] Process com.android.phone FC Fix

Hey guys. I noticed a lot of people, including myself, have been getting the dreaded process com.android.phone force close message upon booting up new ROMs.
This only happens when trying to connect to data. Turn it off, and the force closes stop. Well, I believe I've found a workaround using an APN file I've found floating around on the Carbon ROM thread!
Upon booting, just keep clicking the OK message to skip past the FC errors and the ROM setup process, and then disable your data as soon as you can. Connect to wifi, go to the Play store and install your favorite root browser. Download the linked APN file at the bottom of this post to your phone, and open up your root browser. Copy the APN file you downloaded, then go to system/etc, delete the stock APN file and replace it with the new one. Set permissions to rw-r-r, reboot into recovery, and do a factory data reset. Boot back into ROM and voila, you should be good!
Note that this may or may not fix your data problems, as every phone is different and some of you are on different carriers. This method has been working for me ever since I started doing it a couple of days ago, and almost every new ROM I've installed recently have given me the FC error. That is no more with this new APN, and I even get a better data connection than before. Hope this helps you all!

*****EDIT*****
This method has also fixed my data problems on the new KitKat ROMs as well. Before, I wouldn't even get data on the new KK ROMs, and if I did, 3G would go away and never come back when switching between wifi and data. Replaced the APN, and my data came back stable, even when switching to wifi.

Okay, I've been seeing this complaint around the forums recently, so I'll say this.
For as long as I've ever owned a smartphone, 3G/4G ALWAYS turned off for me whenever I was in a phone call, but I could still browse the internet and stuff. Maybe now things are different with this phone/these ROMs, and data is actually blocked when in a call, I don't know. It's not an issue to me, though, because I really don't use data while in a call. So hopefully this issue can get cracked down further for you guys who do.

I can confirm that no matter what ROM I've been on, when I made or received a call, my 4G/3G symbol would disappear, but if I was on 4G I could still access the internet. Not with 3G of course. I'll need to get to a 4G area and test this.

For CM10.2 it works fine. For stock it is fine it just seems to be this KitKat that is a GSM build that is being worked over a bit for CDMA. That is where the problem lies.

I wonder if this has to do with our builds coming from the nexus 5, since it is a tri-band LTE device. It does not have the capability to be connected to LTE and CDMA at the same time. Are there any radio files we are grabbing from the nexus 5 that might be causing this behavior to occur?
Check out this article, it talks about the inability of the tri band devices to be connected to LTE while using voice/text:

Copy the APN file you downloaded, then go to system/etc, delete the stock APN file and replace it with the new one. Set permissions to rw-r-r, reboot into recovery, and do a factory data reset. Boot back into ROM and voila, you should be good!
Note that this may or may not fix your data problems, as every phone is different and some of you are on different carriers. This method has been working for me ever since I started doing it a couple of days ago, and almost every new ROM I've installed recently have given me the FC error. That is no more with this new APN, and I even get a better data connection than before. Hope this helps you all!

*****EDIT*****
This method has also fixed my data problems on the new KitKat ROMs as well. Before, I wouldn't even get data on the new KK ROMs, and if I did, 3G would go away and never come back when switching between wifi and data. Replaced the APN, and my data came back stable, even when switching to wifi.

Sorry for belated update, worked like a charm for me.!
Confirmed to work. I did NO factory data reset or even rebooting. FCs just immediately stopped after replacing file. Proof enough for me.
What's the cause of this?

This did not work for me on the AOSP 4.4 ROM either. I have tried several times and still get force closes. I am running fine on CM10.2 though.
Does this fix the issue with switching between 4G to 3G? While on the Omni rom, if I'm connected to 4G and it loses signal, it doesn't connect to 3G. Or, if I want to turn of 4G and only use 3G, it never connects.
For some reason, when I put it, the system just disregards it. It says successfully deleted and pasted too. When I delete the old one and paste the new one it says "Do you want to overwrite?" even though the old one is gone. Anybody got anything?
