all of a sudden tiny mms problems on o2

hi
ive flashed tonnes of roms and one thing pretty much guaranteed to **** up is my mms
ive got the correct settings backed up on apn manager (that ive used before and know to be correct)
ive now moved over to vanilla froyo roms, ive tried cyanogen and defrost both with the same issue.
problem is that now im just getting tiny mms pics....i mean tiny.
whats the deal with that ?
anyone know of a fix or can post their settings for me to check out ?
cheers

I think you'll find on the Android roms you do NOT have MMS PROTOCOL as an entry. This is good for me. Full size pics. But I cannot get any pics at all with sense roms. The moment I see MMS PROTOCOL after downloading a rom, I'm screwed. Transferring apn settings from a non sense Rom, leads to a FC. Be mindful of that mms protocol entry. It series things up for me.

Use the rom from Paul over at modaco r8 and remove the htc messaging and replace it with stock messaging app in the kitchen. Out of all the froyo roms this the only one that works properly with mms and o2. I have had the same issue from pretty much all custom roms. This will resolve your problem.

thanks mate, its kinda what i was thinking...
ill make r8 as vanilla as i can and just use that....i was using that before and know it to work.
thanks for the answers tho
cheers mate

White experience works on o2. Full size pics.

Back on mcr8 again and (with a little help from apn back up) all is well,
Shame the vanilla roms I tried didn't cut the mustard as far as my mms goes.
Took a while to sort stuff out with the market as it was today tho!
Talking of which, It seems to be twice as fast to download stuff as it was prior to it going down... could just be my imagination tho.

You do know white experience, vanilla Rom by neophyte works with full size mms. I'm currently on R8, but it only gave me one apn setting.

[Request] Froyo Rom with Cricket MMS settings

would love to see this and I am willing to help provide the settings where I can. I am no chef but have been working on this for forever, i've modified the telephony.db modified the APN and now I am trying to use MMS client from Incredible. Lots of people would be very happy with this and or a MMS solution for AOSP roms, Deodexed and Odexed. I love this site and give you all major props, I post LINKS to your roms and mods and always give credit dont believe me check me out at CDMA GURUS look at my posts.

the problem is that evo roms just wont let mms work it would have to be an incredible port thats why that certain ava rom works and the incredible mms.apk makes mms work..right now wats seems to be working for the most part is after replacing the mms.apk i use chompsms to send and recieve mms and it works for now but unless we dont get an incredible rom port then we wont have everything working out of the box

I'm working on this as we speak.
I'm trying to port the latest Incredible OTA to the EVO.
I have it running on my phone and MMS is working flawlessly right now, however wifi, bluetooth, and screen rotation are not working yet. It took me a while to get the SD card and hardware keys working again, but I figured that out.
I've reached out to some people for some help with the port (like avalanchmods who did the ava froyo v2rc3 port that works pretty well) but no one has responded yet. Hopefully I can get some pointers for getting all the hardware working properly.
Once I get that working I'll post up something for everyone else. I'm running it right now without wifi and bluetooth (hardly use them anyway) and loving it, just wish the screen would rotate when using the web browser haha

Thank s dude loved jiminy cricket v2 now ztahoez is on a beastly tangent with the avalaunch z-mod

[WIP] Update 2011-7-19: Port Sense 3.0 Lockscreen and Quick Settings to OTA GB

Update 7-19 Working Lock Screen: jrizk07 has put together a single zip update for a stable lock screen. Big thanks to jrizk07!
In the zip, the Sense 3.0 Weather is included along with the updated 3.0 lock screen. All are working.
Limitations/Bug:
The lock screen will not show missed calls. This is due to the use of the 2.1 phone.apk. The 3.0 phone force closes too much, presumably due to a conflict with our radio.
Some are seeing the VVM app displayed twice in the app drawer. This is not consistently reproduced.
Zip can be found below. It is best flashed on a clean version of the RMK OTA. Flash on top of the ROM with no wipe. Link below:
http://www.multiupload.com/ZXQ2B2L7HE
Update: I have managed to get the lock screen working on the OTA build by RMK. I did no dev work on this, but rather was able to find different combinations of files that mostly worked. I am no Dev and cannot really support this, but wanted to post my findings. Flash at your own risk.
Here is what I did:
Taking the great work by Seo on the Desire HD (Thanks Seo!) in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1062962, these are the steps I took:
1. Flash Sense3_WeatherPack-0.13.zip and reboot to set up. Do not wipe.
2. Flash Stock_Weather_KingdomLock-0.3.zip and reboot. Do not wipe.
3. Flash Kingdom_Lockscreen-0.17.zip. Do not wipe
After this, you should have a working lock screen and the new Messaging app. The new Messaging app cannot send MMS, so I pulled the MMS.apk out of the RMK ROM and pushed it back into System/App using Root Explorer (remember to change permissions), and reboot. If MMS is not important to you, you should be able to keep the app.
Bug:
com.android.phone will force close on occasion. I am not sure what is causing this, but it seems to happen mostly at start up. You will lose network connectivity momentarily and it will come back. I am not sure if it is a conflict with my SwitchPro widget for toggling vibrate or not, but seems related. This will also happen when toggling 3G Hotspot, but after the FC, everything works fine.
Work Around:
If the Phone FC'ing is an issue for you, you can push the phone.apk from the RMK ROM similar to the MMS method above. Doing this will not show missed calls on the lock screen and it will not show the count of calls on the phone icon for the lock screen.
I know the Kingdom ROM folks are having the same FC issue with the phone, so we should monitor Joel's progress to see if the issues they are having are related to this.
Now, on to the Quick Settings.
Old Req...
I know we are all waiting for Kingdom and Virtuosity, but I would love to just add these two features to the OTA. I suspect it will yield a very stable ROM.
That said, can anyone point me to a tutorial for porting features? I am sure it will require some framework tweaks and new APKs, but I would like to at least start poking around since we have a stable ROM with all working features.

Thanks. I tried that ROM and liked it, but it is missing several HTC widgets and the voice search does not work. I really love that lock screen though.

Don't forget MMS doesn't work.
A good place to start is looking at the sense 3.0 update in that thread.
It replaces various frameworks, permissions, and apk's among other things. The only problem is that it's based on the Incredible S otherwise we'd be able to just flash it normally.
I flashed it just to test and I got the lock screen to work however the com.android.phone will continuously crash along with the status bar. I don't have enough time in the day to look at it piece by piece for a port.

GPS works fine for me but what did you do differently for mms?
It always fails after a number of retries and looking into it the settings are all blank. That's coming from a clean wipe of everything to beta2.
I'm still unable to send/receive picture messages

Yea, I was bummed too after they said it was fixed.
I'd really love to use that ROM, loving the sense 3.0 features, but can't live without mms

I'm working on porting the 3.0 lockscreen and a few other applications to the OTA update that rmk released. This is the first time I've done something like this, though, so somebody might beat me to the punch as I'm taking my time to make sure everything is gravy.

Same here, i'm interested in being a guinea pig

I'm going to try to get my hands on an inc2 of my own so I can get some work done. Team BAMF has given me permission on the port and I got boot, haven't tested beyond that.

I just successfully ported sense 3.0 . No service yet though. I used a MT4G rom.

for those who want rmks rom with sense 3.0 lockscreen pull all the idlescreen.apks and fusion.apk from a sense 3.0 rom and htclockscreen.apk and put them into the rom before you boot

thats all it takes for 3.0 lockscreen? easy enough. thanks a lot

What ROM would you recommend grabbing these APKs from?

Alternative?

I was in love with CM9 RC2, it did everything I wanted. Couldn't ask for more........until...I realized it does not support MMS and I NEED TO SEND AND RECEIVE PICTURE MESSAGES! Onto my actual question though. What custom rom supports all features? I'm looking for a good stable rom that supports all the features my phone is capable of. Verizons 2.3.3 isn't bad but the interface is crap. That's why I "Liked" CM9 RC2. So yeah If anyone could list an all around, all feature working rom it would be much appreciated. Also feel free to list a kernel if you feel as if certain roms perform better with a specific one.
P.S. I don't want an overclocked CPU. I'm fine at the 1Ghz.
-Thanks

Does anyone have a specific rom in mind? One they can verify that all features work. (MMS, camera, speaker volume, data etc...)?

All of the CM9 roms and the CM9 based roms support MMS , you need to manually put in the APN settings using the Voice Dialer. Every CDMA rom has data, camera, text and mms (with apns), and speaker phone.
This link will show you the correct APN settings for Verizon to send/receive MMS

Are you positive this works? Because I had everything else working on this rom EXCEPT for picture messaging (MMS) and if I switch back I need to know for sure it will support it.

It does support mms, I'm on it now. I saw this thread and laughed (no offense. I was new once too)

I would go back and check your settings, verify you typed everything in correctly, make sure to hit menu and save the apn settings and after saving be sure to select/tick the circle on the apn to enable it . If its not working then you made a mistake somewhere.

It's working now, I went to another website and did things similar to what you said, but when I hit "save" the Verizon name was no longer there. I was about to give up then all my pic messages went thru! It's now fully working I can probably re find the link if anyone is interested.

Epic Touch on Virgin Mobile -- AWESOME-- but....

I have an Epic Touch running ICS 4.0.4 on Virgin Mobile. Speeds, battery life and functionality are great. I am running Calkulins 1.6 rom. however, i have two issues. the first is mms. i looked at the patches and tried to apply to no avail. all the settings for ro.cdma.operator, etc are correct but no beans on the mms. i even decompiled the framework-res.apk without getting it sorted out. any ideas how to get it working. (i did get it to work on cm9 but overall performance was not as good.
the second thing is the voicemail notifier. it works on cm9 but not calkulins ics. thanks for any feedback.

I think the issue with MMS is that, you need to use a pure CM9/CM10 ROM for it to work.

The MMS issue can probably be fixed with a simple APN edit in the ##data# menu? I'm not sure, just saying.

I had previously tried that with other ROMs but that will not work. VM has some special way of encoding their MMS so a special fix was needed which works with CM9 based ROMs.

The APN edit is correct but still does not work. I am thinking that there is something in the framework-res.apk that needs to be changed. anyone have any ideas.
I would consider moving over to CM9 however, i use bluetooth audio with my phone in the car and CM9 does not allow for avrcp control in 3rd party apps where calkulins does. the 3rd party control is important to me because i dont want to be screwing around on the phone to change tracks, etc.

The missing piece is in the apk itself (I'm flashed to Cricket). If you check any other threads with alt-carrier mms fixes for our phone (I use og Epic4G fixes successfully), you'll see the mms.apk gets changed. On ICS TW ROMs though, mms gets fixed but incoming sms breaks... installing a 3rd party messaging app (I've used hand cent without issues) fixes that.
So in all, you'll probably wanna change apn's, fix your build.prop, push a modified mms apk, and install a 3rd party SMS app to get everything working.
Wish I could help more but I'm still learning

Have you tried using the the MMS Fix I posted in my last reply, that has been the fix that has gotten MMS to work. For me anyway on CM9.
If you want to have at it with getting MMS to work on the ROM you are using this might be a good place to start. Original Epic 4G to VM
MMS WORKS thanks to Brooksyx, be sure to throw him a thanks!
As of 4-23-2012, you're required to use CyanogenMod if you want MMS.
