Backup everything and do a full wipe and re-flash.
Only thing I can recommend besides getting a better ROM.

clockwork 3.0.0.5 only has options for a factory reset and cache wipe. I'm scared.....plz help

There are tons of threads on xda of mms not working on custom roms. Normally if its not working its an apn issue. I've even posted instructions on this last week on another thread. Search around and you might find it. I'd link to it but I'm not at my PC. Also keep in mind mms doesn't work over wifi if you have that on turn it off and see if it works then.

The rom I'm currently using IncredibilyReengineered only sends MMS with the wifi turned off. Maybe you could try turning wifi off before sending the mms and see if that works. Just a thought. Usually the phone does this automatically, switching to 3G for MMS, but for whatever reason you have to manually turn wifi off to get it to work, at least you do on IncrediblyReengineered.

I'm running CM7 RC2 right now and I can't send or receive MMS messages unless I turn OFF wifi and then turn ON 3G... not too bad since its mostly text. Let me know how it works out for you.

Yea I can send on wifi I meant but can only receive on 3G ... (must turn off wifi cuz it always overrides 3G)

I had mms issues on even the stock rom before I rooted. It didnt matter if I had wifi on or off. The only rom that has ever worked 100% of the time was the cm7 nightlies.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

On most ROM's MMS will not send or receive when WiFi is on and connected. Sometimes it switches automatically to 3G like it should but more often it fails If you see it did not send then leave WiFi on and toggle Mobile Network. It will send just about immediately.
I just keep the Mobile widget on my home screen for that rare occasion that I am on WiFi and send an MMS.
Text is fine because that goes over the voice network

its not an issue of wifi because i don't ever use it. its always off. as i mentioned in my opening statements the APN fix DID NOT work. will be trying the ROM manager fix shortly.
edit. the fix in the mentioned link has nothing to do with the dinc. also the cited fix is not in the ROM manager downloads section.

Can you elaborate?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App

the issue stems from backing up all data with titanium and restoring old information on a new ROM. i did a factory wipe and reflashed cyanogen 6.1 and everything works fine as long as i don't restore data.

MMS through WIFI?

ok, so ive noticed that when on TW, you can send and recieve MMS on wifi (which is great for me because of not so good 3g speeds) but on CM9 you cant. Is there a way to make it work on CM9? or is this only for TW? OR just explain whats going on here, thanks.

As far as I know you need a phone signal for mms...if you want to use wifi u need to use something like Google voice for texting.

I am familiar with that app, but im talking about receiving/sending MMS from and to your number, in the stock app, handcent, or anything similar.

I have no problem sending and receiving mms on cm9 w/ wifi on. The phone still sends it via 3g, it just connects to the network real quick and then disconnects.

thats the problem, on TW it would use wifi, not 3g. its great for me because where i live, data speeds arent that great |not complaining|. now, id like to do that on CM9

Mms through wifi only works thru Samsung's stock messaging app. I know exactly what OP means. You can uncheck 3g and 4g and still mms go thru just on wifi. I wondered why at one point my epic stopped doing this so I played with some settings and figured out that handcent was the culprit. Once I stopped handcent from disabling the stock app mms over wifi worked again. So to OP the reason why it don't work on cm9 is bcuz stock messaging app is removed or if you're on stock then you probably have a third party SMS app with the disable stock setting on.
Edit: This also applies to 4g. With the stock app you can send thru 4g too. If you disable or remove it, sending thru 4g or wifi won't work and stick to 3g only.

Sending receiving mms over WiFi

Is there anyway to send receive mms over WiFi? I use go sms and i think the app only sends over cell. Wondering if it's the app or Rom. Any help would be great

Tmobile only allows sms/mms to send over their network. Ive heard in the past that either mods or some 3rd party apps can accomplish sending over wifi, but im not sure.

mms thru wifi and gosms dont mix. try handcent instead. works great, but you have to be on wifi calling for it to work

I think Wi-Fi calling makes it work like mentioned above. But, at the same time, I know I had issues with doing it at one point with this phone.

Go SMS will send/receive mms when connected to Wi-Fi but not if you have Wi-Fi calling also on. Not sure there's a way around this. However the stock messaging app works on wifi even with Wi-Fi calling on. But even with the issue I still prefer to use go SMS pro over stock or handcent mainly due to it's iPhone mms group chat capabilities. Handscent seems to have a lot of issues with this feature.

Yeah thats annnoying as hell! Had that problem on my old mt3gs but tmobile fixed it pretty quick with an update. I thought it had been fixed but apparently theyve only fixed the bug where mms wouldnt send at all if wifi was active. Pretty sure there's a fix but I haven't found it yet.

Other solution
you could always use textplus instead. its an app that lets u send and recieve free texts and mms over a data network or wifi. it even gives u a number to match your area code. just a suggestion

Bone stock should be able to send/receive mms over wifi calling. If you are using a ROM I have no idea, you'll have to reach out to the developer of your ROM. If you have done the mods to enable group mms, you'll have to revert back to your stock SecMms.apk to send/receive via wifi calling then switch back to your modded SecMms.apk. Unless someone has made a fix but I haven't been able to find any yet.

MMS over WiFi Calling

Hi,
I am running ICS 4.0.4...using stock messaging or Go SMS.
Is there any way to fix the MMS over WiFi calling issue? It's awful. Even though group SMS works within Go SMS, it fails if I'm on WiFi calling, and my friends hate using GroupMe. Are there any APN settings I can change? a different MMS.apk app I can use?
I am rooted FYI.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Craig

Try Samsung's fix. Turn Wi-Fi on. Open gmail and send an email to yourself and attach a pic using the acct registered to for your phone. Once you get that, try sending an mms to yourself. You should get it fairly quickly.

I believe the issue with GOSMS themselves been testing out MMS over wifi, so far i found it works fine with the stock MMS app and Handcent SMS. Going to try some other apps and see if they work.
Seems i may go back to HandcentSMS until GOSMS fixes it.

Thats because it doesnt work. Thats why these devs made it work with the stock DEODEX version or any other custom roms.. I want to see a video from the person that has "achieve" this. Because all I get is when on WIFI, and I send a MMS, 4G comes on real quick to send it and receive it then it switches off.

Im the one who originally posted the Samsung fix several months ago. I have used it after MMS over wifi not working on several ROMS after initial flash, including my current ROM Beastmade (odexed).
Here is your requested video. I sent an MMS to myself, and you can see 4G never turns on. Only wifi uploads/downloads.
Here you go!

MMS only works over data! If on wifi calling it will switch over to data to send and if data is off it will not send.

That's incorrect! If you watch the video i posted 4g never turns on. Also, i just tried it after turning data off and it went thru. If you'd like a friendly $100 PayPal wager I'd be happy to post a video showing it

MMS not working
Hi, I received my device a few weeks ago, direct from T-Mobile as a replacement, and immediately used the motochopper method on my mac to gain root on my SIII with LTE. I am not running any custom roms. Yet I cannot send a MMS message. It just spins forever; trying to send. I have verified that my micro SIM card works properly and my device has the correct APN settings according to T-Mobile USA (I have tried both fast.t-mobile.com and epc.tmobile.com without any luck). I have uninstalled AdAway and turned off CPU Tuner, LBE Privacy Guard, and Lookout. The only other rooted apps I have installed are BusyBox, SuperSU, Greenify, AutoKiller Memory Optimizer, Mobile ODIN, ROM Manager, SystemHelper, Titanium Backup, Delayed Lock, and Voodoo OTA RootKeeper. Is there an app that can assess my configurations to determine what is causing the MMS failure? I do not believe the device is faulty. I tried using Go SMS Pro and Handcent SMS with out any luck as well. Thanks in advance!

I would start over. Back up your important data and factory reset (you wont lose root). I have a feeling it may have something to do with one or more of the apps you just listed, like LBE, auto killer, etc or possibly a combination of them. Start completely clean and test if you can send/receive normally. If so, install one app at a time testing each one.
If it continues w/o any apps installed, then call T-Mobile and ask them to reset your account. See if they have any ideas if that doesnt work. Id also replace the sim at a T-Mobile store. Theyll swap for free if yours could be faulty.
