Anyone have a Rogers Lumia 900 with a Fido Sim Card have their MMS start working?
Not sure if it was me screwing around or they changed the MMS backend on their end by my MMS/Internet Sharing is working with my Fido Sim Card.
Did you reset your phone or remove sim or anything?

No figured it out, did the Update Trick to get Tango, it must have installed the OS in an "unbranded" configuration. I had some Network issues, called Fido and had them do a "Resend to Switch" that's when MMS and Internet Sharing started working. Had someone confirm by doing the same thing with their Rogers Lumia 900.
Did you specifically ask for that by name? What problem did you report? Would love to get mine working. I find mine is slow on data connection sometimes especially compared to focus.

Are you on Fido? Different carriers have a different name for it, I believe all they are doing is reprovisioning the sim. If you are on Fido and did the Tango update trick, you'll get the added benifit of MMS/Internet Sharing working. On a side note, when I first got my Lumia 900, I had put my Fido Sim in the phone and my data was very slow, especially compared to my old Focus. I had them do a "resed to switch" and it fixed my data speeds.
Power off your phone and call them from a lan line. Tell them you're having data problems and the last time you experienced this the customer service rep did a "resend to switch" and ask if they can do it again. if the customer service rep doesn't know what you are talking about hang up and call again. If the customer service rep knows what you are talking about they will tell you to power off your phone (which it already is). After they do the "resend to switch" wait a few minutes and then power your phone on.

is it because Fido is the same network as Rogers ? or does it really have anything to do with the tango update ?
I have a Rogers Lumia working on Bell, even after the tango update, the internet sharing still cannot work. still no way to change APN to get MMS to work also.

Since Fido doesn't carry any WP7 devices at the moment and pre-Tango required APN with MMS/Internet Sharing not working, I could be wrong but, I'm going to guess that it's the Tango update through the update trick. I could be wrong but since you're on Telus, you could try the same thing.
Couple of things to note though, Nokia claims that LTE gets configured from the firmware (pre-OS boot) so don't know if it would work for you or not if you're using an LTE sim. Also, they finally confirmed that the Network Setup app is coming back to the North American marketplaces within a couple of weeks and the new version being released is supposed to work with the Lumia 900.
So you can either try doing the same through Telus or wait for the new version of the Network Setup app to be released.
Hi, I did what you said and data seems better and mms and visual voice mail is working. Have not tried tether yet. Thanks alot for the help!

Ok, this may be a dumb question, BUT...
Do you have a SIM card in there?
AND,
Do you have a T-mobile account?

lmao, yes and yes
unlimited data plan too and connected to wifi
I had the same problem -- because my SIM was pretty ancient. It was actually a PowerTel SIM (who got bought by VoiceStream who got bought by T-Mobile). Just drop by a T-Mobile store and get a new SIM. It's quick and free.
PS -- In my case, the "My Account" app didn't work, either. It would always say "cannot retreive account information at this time" or something like that. But literally everything else on the device worked fine -- voice, data, SMS, blah blah blah. Even T-Mobile TV.
It was just the stuff that needed specific T-Mobile account information would fail.
Well I have this issue even though I just got a brand new T-mo contract on Thursday so I doubt the sim is ancient?
I realised the problem.

That worked for me. It no longer says invalid SIM!
I didn't even have to call. Just go to settings> wireless&networks> mobile networks> then enable data roaming fixed it for me. Using G2x. This was driving me crazy at first because wifi calling worked fine when i first got phone then after flashing a rom it did not work. This fixed it for me, i know its old post but hope this helps someone else too.

When i wrote my first reply i did not realize this post was for the G2 not the G2x, maybe that's why it didn't work for you, on my G2x international roaming does not need to be on, only national data roaming, i also had to reboot phone after turning roaming on. If this doesn't help i would suggest doing what others have mentioned, call t mobile. Maybe for the G2 the roaming needs to be enabled on t-mobile's side, i really don't know for sure. Good luck, i know how annoying this can be, as i get no cell coverage in my bedroom, so wifi calling is my only option for me. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.
I just got the Lumia 900, and everything is working fine except I cannot send/receive MMS. I am currently on the newest update, but my APN settings were not built into the phone like they should have been. I manually inputed them and the data is working fine now, but pictures still will not send. Am I the only one with this problem? If not, has anyone figured out a fix? I called both Nokia and At&t. At&t told me the issue was that I didn't have a data plan, which I do, and Nokia told me to have At&t send an APN update push to my phone. At&t said they couldn't do that. Anyway, let me know if you all know of anything that could help.
Thanks in advance.
UPDATE: After spending 2 hours on the phone with AT&T and Nokia, I finally got tired and called an AT&T rep that I know. She took a look at my account and realized that I had data on my account, but it was never set up with the 4G data which is why I could access the internet via HSPA or HSPA+ but couldn't get MMS. The phone was just confused. She made the change for me and it's working fine now. If you're on AT&T, just call 611 and make sure you're on an LTE plan, not just a 4G plan and see if that fixes your problem.

Something seems wonky here.
You have a Lumia 900 on AT&T with a qualifying DATA plan, and you can't get MMS.
A couple of thoughts:
What aren't you saying? Hacked? Rooted, Unlocked??? Bought it off of eBay?
Have you tried a Hard Reset with the sim in? During setup, the first indication of a setup problem is, Time Zone, Region, Time are not setup automatically. Does this happen?
Do you have an official mini sim, or is this a cut down one? Cut down ones...might not work.
Take it back to the place you bought it....do a hard reset in front of them. Does it work? By work I mean does it detect time zone, time, your number. NO, its not usual for them not to...don't believe that if they tell you that. If there is NO detection....something is wrong..either with the Sim or the account.
Have them check your account...right there...is it setup? You should NOT have to input an apn on this phone, if all of the above is correct.
I have had 2 lumia's and a Samsung Focus S since March 2nd. Each one had to have the account reset. For some reason something went wonky on the phone during setup. Dropped vm, one time it was data plan not initializing. A Quick check caught them...

I am in the same boat. Bone stock 900.
Looks like an issue with 4G. When I change my data connection to 3G MMS works as expected, change it back to 4G, no workie...
I was going to mess around with APN to see if I can get one set up that works. There is a Nokia Network Setting app that can help with this but it's not on the Market Place anymore. I've been doing some searching and this appears to occur on many different carriers with 4G. I'm in the US on ATnT, but it is happening overseas too.

Might have figured mine out, I added an APN
apn: wap.cingular
user: [email protected] (all caps)
pass: CINGULAR1 (all caps)
proxy: 66.209.11.32
port: 8080
There is not slot for MMS so I skipped that, it would be:
mmsc: http://mmsc.cingular.com
Go to settings
Cellular
Edit APN
Input the above
Save (check mark)
I then toggled in airplane mode for 30 secs and then out of it. Sent my self a MMS and it worked, sent one from my wife's phone and it worked. Both of those scenarios were failing on 4G before. PITA
That app is off the marketplace

Yes it work but..... It seemed to have reduced my data download speeds. So I deleted the APN and that got my LTE speed back.
Will toggle to 3g when an MMS fails for me. Will also start to bug ATnT about this too.

I have a Rogers Lumia 900 unlocked and am using it on Bell. I have the latest updates and haven't had the data connectivity issue since the first update several months ago was sent out. Last night I lost data connectivity over the cell network and still haven't gotten it back. Wifi works fine though. Is anybody having this issue on a Lumia 900 on Bell?
Hey
Hey Brother if you are having data issues and even issues with calls going to VM sometimes outta nowhere go get your sim changed, i had the issue and i realized i was using bells 4G micro sim and i actually needed the new 4G LTE micro sim once i got all that setup the phone part of my lumia runs fantastic no data issues what so ever

Thanks for the reply. I should already have the LTE sim. I made sure I asked for that when I got my Lumia. I haven't noticed any issues with calls going to VM without ringing... just lost my data last night.
Well I seem to have fixed it. I added the proxy address of web.wireless.bell.ca port 80 to the APN settings and my data is back. That seems really strange to me that I'd have to do that since it's been working without the proxy ever since I bought my Lumia. When I got it, I tried it with and without the proxy as well as both APN's for bell... pda.bell.ca and inet.bell.ca and they all worked. O well it's working again so that's all that really matters.
Glad to hear it's working now..
Wondering if you can confirm a couple things..
Internet sharing, is it locked for you? As well is MMS or group texting working for you?

Internet sharing is locked for me... I tried a Rogers sim in my phone and it worked perfect but locked with the Bell sim. MMS it not working as the network setup app from Nokia is available. I haven't tried group texting so I can't comment on that.

I'm pretty sure there's no speculation as to whether or not it will fix it. That is the only thing holding back MMS from working as it allows us to change the MMS servers. Once that app is available again, we will have working MMS as long as you put in the correct MMS server.

I did many times. I can still get LTE but very rare, before it was LTE 99% of the time. Now it's like 5% of the time.
Call AT&T and ask them... I also have a habit of immediately coming to XDA to search for answers whenever I run into a problem w/my phone, but more often than you'd expect, your carrier can help you resolve whatever your issue is.
Good luck.

Just curious. You have LTE, 90% of the time. What were you trying to do with the Network Setup App?
If you have 4g, and, you're logged into a valid Marketplace account on your phone, Why would you even need the Network setup app.
I'm only asking because, if everything was working...and you changed something...then it might not work...I know duh. But it makes even more evidence as to why AT&T might not want that app available.
Unless, of course, you tweeked a ROM someplace, somehow....in which case, AT&T won't help you either. This most likely includes force loading Tango...
Another question....did you go to Marketplace on your PC...can you log in and access there? If yes, then the issue is with your phone. If no, the issue is with your account. Your phone, AT&T might be able to help. With your account, AT&T probably can't.

I had the same problem too. I deleted the app, soft reset the phone and then reloaded the app. I made sure that the network selected through the app was AT&T LTE 1 and I was able to get back my LTE access.
If nothing else works, you can call Tech Support and ask (I forget which tier it is) to repush your PRL for the LTE to the phone. That often fixes these types of issues in my experience.
So I jumped on the AT&T/DirecTV Unlimited data deal and ported my phone today. It all looked normal and I got the activation texts and such - it even populated the nxtgenphone APN info (though it was deselected and I had to select it). Anyway, I've had no data at all. As a test, I switched the APN to phone and data works, but the speeds appear to be much lower than what my wife's iPhone is seeing on the nxtgenphone APN. Anyone got any tips?
I'm running Viper 2.5, latest US unlocked firmware and US unlocked selected as carrier, and it works fine on AT&T other than this......only other thing I can mention is when I select preferred band or whatever it shows WCDMA/GSM and if I change it to WCDMA/GSM/LTE it reverts back for some reason. Any help much appreciated. I've called AT&T and they're like, uh, we don't sell the HTC 10 so can't really help you... grrrrrr.....

I'd suggest ruu to stock us unlocked rom and see if the issue persists.
Or, try clean flash of viper.
I have no issues using US unlocked on AT&T with both stock rom and ice.
Thanks for trying to help. I just finished trying stock RUU and same problem. I'm convinced, as I was before, that this is AT&T's issue. I've read numerous posts this afternoon that because the HTC 10 (and other phones) aren't in their "LTE approved" database, nxtgenphone APN won't work, or it will only give HSPA speeds. Seems like everyone who has resolved it, or didn't run into the issue at all had another AT&T LTE phone they could use for the IMEI on the account, or the rep entered the model as an iPhone or similar to make it work. Really, really frustrating, as they refuse to help me and I'm starting to think I should just terminate in the 14 day window and do T-mobile or Verizon.
I have at&t and everything worked out of the box, I've never been on stock rom, always on Viper I did the unlock and s-off without a sim and never had an issue or called at&t to activate the device I just transferred my sim from my note 4 to the HTC 10, no provisioning issues at all, VOLTE works, LTE is fine as well while on a phone call... No issues... If you need anything to compare let me know

Thanks for replying. They did confirm it was a provisioning issue and they fixed it today. They had to do something different, as the default HTC 10 provisioning and IMEI check didn't fix it even when they tried it a second time, but they were able to adjust something and LTE definitely works now. VoLTE working here, too. Thanks!
