iv been having this problem for like a week now and i cant figure it out!!
i can send and receive sms and i can receive mms but i cant send mms.... every time i try to send one it just fails after like 5 sec and says service not activated on network
i have a unlimited plan with 5gb of data on t-mobile and it was working when i got my nexus.....
i also tried the smsc thing and that didnt work....any ideas???
Are you using a themed SMS app? If so replace it with stock in system/app set permissions and reset.
Which ROM are you using?
Sounds like the APN isn't set correctly.
Make sure you have "mms" included in the "APN-Type", maybe that helps.

That was my thought as well.
im using the kang aokp rom and im using the ics messaging theme but not a different messaging app like chompsms or anything.... and i checked my apn settings and under apn type i have
default,supl,mms
so any other ideas?? it just started randomly...do you think it has something to do with me backing up and restoring all my apps and data in titanium??
As long as you didn't restore any system data, I don't think the backup/restore should have anything to do with it.
You may need to contact your carrier to verify your APN settings and/or make sure there isn't something on their end preventing you from sending MMS.
I'm almost certain it's the themed SMS app...I experienced the same problem.
ok ill flash a new rom right now and not install the ics theme and see what happens thank for the help you guys! i really really appreciate it
Do your settings look like this? If not, that should be your reference.

I have the same problem on tmobile... my apn values are identical to the ones posted here... I am running foxhound rom. It is a themed texting app and i love it. Is there a way to keep it and make it work?
Will someone help?

Strange... I am in Canada on the Rogers Network and I also use the FoxHound ROM with the themed MMS app and I have no issues sending MMS messages.
Is it possible that it may be somewhat carrier related for you? Have you called T-Mobile support?

Have you verified your SMSC setting?

1) Access your phone information menu (dial "*#*#4636#*#*"), select Phone Information.
2) Scroll down to the bit that shows "SMSC:", a blank, and two buttons.
3) Click the Refresh button (NOT THE UPDATE BUTTON!) to retrieve the current SMSC.
4) For T-Mobile US, it *should* be "07912160130300f4".

Your MMS Server might have the wrong address or something. Tell me something, are you able to send regular text message without a problem or does that result into an endless wait too? If you're not able to send text messages either then you're going to have to flash into a sense rom preferably Sprint Lovers ROM and go to the dialer and press ##DATA#, once you press that you should be prompted for a code which will be your MSL....if you don't know your MSL then go to the market and download MSL reader....get your MSL and retry the ##DATA#.....once you enter your MSL then you should see a black screen with about 4 or 5 menu entires....go into Advanced and scroll down to where it say MMS Server and make sure it says http://mms.sprintpcs.com.....if it doesn't say that then that was your problem....reboot and re-flash CM7.
No I don't have any problems with SMS. But I will try the process you stated ... I had to do pretty much the same thing to get my 3g to work on my custom roms so I get the jist of the steps ..ill post my results once I set it up. Thank you for the help

Did you have your 3g on? Won't work on wifi, but works on 3g. 3g has to be on before you begin to send.
Fixed it! thanks

No problem dude! Helping out each other is what this site is all about! You learn something by either reading, personal experience or just a freak of nature and you just pass it on...........
So my phone got disconnected recently for few hours as a lack of payment but when they reconnected it my mms doesn't work again ...everything else works after I went through the msl process to set up everything ..GPS 3g etc and I checked and updated my mms source ..prl etc...the thing is my mms work when I'm on a stock rom ..but after I reinstall cyanogen it stops working ... any suggestions

Similar problem
I am on FRESH 4.2, and I cannot send or received MMS either. I did everything, updated profile, prl, went into the settings at re-entered the MMS url, wiped caches, went on 4G as well as 3G. Doesn't work, has anyone else found a solution? Thanks guys.
Hey all,
Been having an issue where I can receive MMS but cannot send on Net10. Their tech support hasnt been any help, just opening a ticket. I think I must have some sort of problem with my MMS settings but I have even changed them using ##DATA# and tried using MMS settings in GOSMS and Handcent. It seems like whatever I do I cannot get MMS to send.
If you have any Ideas or need more information thatd be great.
Thanks!
...Im on the MOAR Rom
Sprint to Net10
How did you flash your Sprint SIII to Net10 - Noob can you give me some direction?

Ok here goes...I have a rooted Note 3 ..I am running Jedi Elite...I just did the root and ROM on Monday ..As of Thursday I have been unable to send any MMS Messages, I can receive them, but when they are sent they show leaving the phone, but there is no Delivery, just says requested...I called ..Tech Support at TMobile, and they have the engineers on it after changing some settings and having me do a restart which did nothing for the problem..This morning the tech told me that other Note 3 phones are having this issue and had to be returned and traded in..
Has anyone had this problem with the Note 3? Could it have something to do with the Root or the ROM? I am really getting frustrated with not being ale to use MMS and this is the last resort...I was not sure where to psot this so here it is ...As far as I know as of this morning the engineers are still working on this problem...MMS Messaging worked fine until Thursday which tells me that it isn't in the programming of the phone...this is my first time rooting..so if anyone has any ideas on what might be going on I would appreciate it..thx in advance!
UPDATE: Just found out from a friend that MMS messages are going thru now, but phone is not showing DEL REPORT...meaning it is not showing hitting the tower or wherever they go ...I have del report req...always got one with the Note 2..
check your APN settings. I always change the default settings to: default, admin, dun, supl, mms. Ever since Hangout w/ SMS came out, I've never had to use the default SMS app again.
I have had this problem before. Are you running any ad blockers? Try disabling them and send MMS. It fixed it for me when I had this problem.

I was having random issues with mms only for a while. A restart usually fixed it, but I also started having regular network issues. The phone would connect to the tower, and I had data, but it was very slow, or would timeout. I tried to check the APN settings, and see that the stock ones are greyed out, and you can't edit them, so I added the old standard one, and now everything works perfect. Here is what I added in case anyone wants to know.
Before, I was using sense 6.0 and MMS was working very well. I can use data and wifi at the same time to recieve or send MMS, and it was quick. I converted my phone to GPE, and now it MMS seems to not work. I know I'm recieving it but it never goes through. Any help? Is there a way I can use data and wifi to recieve MMS just like using Sense?
EDIT: LET ME REPHRASE IT. I can recieve or send MMS but only on LTE. With sense ROM when I'm recieving MMS on WiFi, it switches to LTE to recieve or send MMS. It doesn't work on stock Android. How do I do this on stock Android?

Did you set up the correct APN settings for your carrier?

I believe so. I'm using T-Mobile.
I'm also on WiFi.
Mms sends over cell service, not wifi. The reason it worked on the sense rom is that the sense messenger is designed to send it over cell. So even if you're on wifi, it's sending the mms over cell using a background service.
Messengers available on the market don't do this... I think because it would require root access but I never looked I to it so I'm not totally sure.

Thanks, I realized this. I do have root access, and if you can post me a messenger app that works like sense messenger that would be great!

Bumping this up, I'm having the same trouble, running T-Mobile LTE/Wifi on my unlocked ATT HTC One M8.
Looked up several apn settings still no luck, anyone wanna post their tmobile m8's apn to compare mine? For some reason I don't get the option to select ipv4 or ipv6 in my apn settings which I think is my issue, but then again who knows. :/
I'm receiving, but I can't download them to display or send them via both LTE and wifi.
Just seeking help on my first android
Hey guys….I can receive SMS and MMS messages and emails. Everything is working great. Except…i cannot send SMS/MMS messages…..
Anyone see this before?
Are you using the stock Messaging app?
I'm having problems with some 3rd party options and working with a dev on it right now.
Edit: The obvious thing to check would be your APN configuration.
What carrier you on?
Have you registered your phone with your carrier? I reckon my carrier (Vodafone PT) won't recognize the Oppo, so i might have to go to a Vodafone shop and have that sorted out, i want my 4G LTE.

Thanks Guys....I was using the 8SMS messaging app from KitKat. That was the problem. The issue went away when I switched back to the stock messaging app....
Thanks for all the help!
Hah yep, 8sms no go for me either.
I've spoken with a dev and sent them a logcat of the issue, hopefully they can make some headway.
I finally found Textra works great and HIGHLY recommend over stock Messages app. Give it a shot if not already familiar.
I have a question. I'm on Vodafone PT with a data plan. When i receive my Find 7a, will it work flawlessly with the carrier? I mean, 4G speeds out of the bat, MMS and SMS, etc? Or will i have to go to the carrier to sort it out. It's because, with all these threads on different forums about carrier issues i became really confused.
I can recieve messages but my problem is I cant send messages
