MMS Doesn't work

MMS doesn't seem to work for me on any ICS based custom ROM (It just says "Sending" forever).
Is there anything I can try or do?
Telus DHD, unlocked on Rogers Wireless.
Tried Ice Cold Sandwich & C&CICS and something else I don't remember.
Thanks.
EDIT: Resolved. Switched to aospX and it works. Apparently issue is just with those other ROMs.

The only thing I've done to make it work is to flash to a newer radio :
I was testing it with 26.06.04.14 radio but MMS wasn't working.
since I reflash with 26.14.04.28 radio and now it's working !
Hope it help others.
Tested on IceCreamSandwich 7.4 test 6 Custom ROM

Thanks for the advice, but unfortunately I just tried it and MMS on 26.14.04.28 on Ice Cold still doesn't work.

Could you both test do disable Wifixmanager in Applications then reboot.
After the reboot, please enable Wifi, wait a minute then disable wifi again and test to send MMS again please (Be sure to have Data enabled).

I never even turn on WiFi so I doubt that has anything to do with it, but sure give me a bit and I'll backup and then switch back to ice cold and give that a try...

Try sending the MMS twice back to back. I have had to do this on alot of ICS roms. The first one will stay sending but when it I make the mms a second time and send it then it normally goes right threw even though the first one is still sending

Never got this issue. for me even sending twice the MMS it was still in sending state.
I just disabled Wifixmanager and flash radio.
To be sure Lord asked me to flash the old radio to test if it was a radio Issue and it wasn't working anymore.
I reflash back to the last radio and it was working ...
I just can share my personnal experience
EDIT : Important thing i had to ENG S-off to flash ...

Oh your last post sounded like you wanted me to try that. If you are just trying to help me then I am just going to leave it. I am happy with the ICS ROM I am using with working MMS.
Thanks though.

no problem I like very much this community.
Hope it may help somebody.

[Q] Issues with data signal after rooting

Hello everyone,
I followed the instructions at galaxynote2root.com for rooting my AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 2 and all is well except sometimes my phone will lose the data signal all together until I either put it in and out of airplane mode or restart the device. I also noticed that I do not get an LTE signal inside the buildings of a lot of places in town where I know I had LTE before. Is their anything that I can do to fix this? Anyone else having this problem?
Thanks!
Matt

Google att apn settings and check to make sure they are still correct. You shouldn't have issues with signal after root but weirder things have happened. That is a good place to start.

For some odd reason this is what it was set to:
Name: ATT Phone
APN: phone
MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
APN type: default,mms,supl
I changed it to what I found on the internet for AT&T LTE:
Name: ATT PTA
APN: pta
MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS Proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Auth: none
APN type: default,mms,supl,hipri
Would those small differences cause that big of a problem?

Another weird thing. Everytime I restart my phone I get a message that says "Android is upgrading"
Is that supposed to happen?

Seams like you might have missed a step during your rooting... Might want to re try rooting the phone..

Nope

that is normal when the dalvik cache has been wiped - not a bad thing - what it is doing is reorganizing the app chain efficiently... it's not actually upgrading. i can't remember if it would do that when you change apn cuz i havn't done it in a while but it's not bad but also whouldn't happen on every bootup unless you change some stuff up in recovery or flash a new rom, etc..
I wouldn't say you have to re-root..... but if you choose to that is fine. the no trip rooting method basically roots and then installs a fresh rom while resetting the counter, it's a huge file and will take a long time to flash so if you do choose to do that don't get anxious and pull the cord on odin or close it up.... it's actually why I won't do it, if i need to reset counter i'll just use triangle away. IMHO it isn't necessary

Thanks for clearing that up for me! So it is safe then to apply that no trip rooting method over my current root? Will I lose everything already on my phone? The no trip root and ROM it puts on my device will not be any different in regards to the battery life I'm getting also, correct?

Yes it safe to put over you root. If it make you feel better though go into su and choose unroot option...but it isnt nessesary. No you will not lose any apps on your phone.No it is a stock room with su injected into it..no change to stock so battery will be exactly the same.
Just do it!

if you are worried about losing anything you can get titanium backup from the market - playstore and do a backup of apps. It can be saved to your internal or external sd or uploaded to dropbox. you can flash the no flash counter root if you'd like and then, because you are rooted, you can just use titanium backup to restore all your apps... but don't restore apps + data, that leads to issues sometimes. that way, you will not lose anything and have a godo backup... it's always a good idea to have one of those anyways. Don't be confused with titanium backing up your apps only and a nandroid backup which is essentially a full backup of everyting - it's also wise to do one of those and you can usually access the backup method via the custom recovery you flashed - either twrp or cwm.

I still have the same root installed from galaxynote2root.com. I would like the multiwindow support that is in todays OTA update. What do I have to do for my phone to successfully get the OTA update?

I'm having the same issue with my note 2. After rooting, my mobile data keeps going on and off. I noticed after installing CleanRom ATT (which I think has nothing to with it). I did a bit of research and heard about the modems. I had the J2 modem so flash the K7 and it works alot better. There are still some area where I lose data . whereas with my note 1 I had 4G LTE in the same areas.

If you're unsure about your root method or want to unroot, make a back up or anything at all on your Note2 I highly recommend using the Note2 Toolkit, http://www.skipsoft.net/?page_id=381. It's a lot of horse power but it walks you through everything very well. I'm even going to install the donate version I like it so much. And about backups, it will do a NAND backup and store it on your PC, FREAKIN AWESOME!

I just wanted to let you guys know that I had data issues after installing this Rom. At 1st I thought it was just my modem (J2) so I flashed K7. That helped, but still had data issues in certain areas where I always had data on my previous device (note 1). So I installed another Rom and now I have data in the areas that I used to have.

I have the same settings as MattPhillips listed. However, all of the settings seem to be "locked out"; that is, I can't edit any of them. I've never tried to mess with anything like this before; any links or info about what I'm doing here? What do all these settings mean, other than they obviously control how your phone talks to the cell towers?
My problem is that the phone NEVER connects to mobile data networks (2G, 3G, AT&T's "4G", or real 4G/LTE) at all. Everything else works; voice calls, SMS, Bluetooth, WiFi, etc. are all functioning as expected. I've flashed several different ROMs, but I'm currently using CleanROM 3.5. I had already rooted, installed TWRP, and flashed CleanROM 3.3 before I activated the Note2, so I don't know whether mobile data worked on stock. I've also tried flashing various modems; currently on I317UCALK7 (tried J2 before that). For the record, it is an i317 (not M or international) Galaxy Note II, ordered direct from AT&T. In "About device" -> "Status", I see the following relevant parameters:
Network: AT&T
Signal strength: -99dBm 7 asu (varies, but typically near this when indoors near a window)
Mobile network type: UMTS: 3
Service state: In service
Roaming: Not roaming
Mobile network state: Disconnected
Any advice? Should I flash back to stock, Triangle Away, unroot, and pursue warranty with AT&T? Or is there some troubleshooting I can do? Does the problem lie in hardware, modem, ROM, settings, something else (could something have gone wrong during activation?), or a combination of more than one of those? Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

How to return to stock?

I'm trying to flash back to stock, to see if that fixes anything, and if not, at least it puts me that much closer to calling AT&T.
However, I'm having a lot of problems getting that to work. I got a stock ROM from stockroms.net (I317UCALJ2) - and confirmed it is identical to the one listed at SamMobile via a binary diff - flashed it, and get stuck in a loop, right after the AT&T ball-dropping "Rethink Possible" animation; it goes to a black screen with "SAMSUNG" written in white letters, with a blue shadow fading in and out behind it. This happened on the ROM from stockroms.net, as well as the ROM from mrRobinson (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2004650).
It does not happen for the stock root de-odexed ROM Scott posted (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2070105); that one boots fine. However, once in that ROM (which does not solve the problem - mobile network still shows "Disconnected"), Triangle Away resets the counter, but it always shows 1 (even though it's supposed to be stock - and it's definitely stock recovery).

[FIX] Ting APNs For all Ting Users - 5-12-2014

For all Ting users having issues with mms, sms, and lte using aosp/aokp/cm/eos/pac/pa/bs/modified stock roms.
If you don't know what Ting is or are not a Ting subscriber you do not need this for any reason.
If you are a Ting user you will need the Ting APNs for LTE and MMS.
These Fixes are not phone specific. Should work on all Ting capable Devices.
FOR BEST RESULT: INSERT INTO ROM BEFORE FLASHING!
============= 4.4 KITKAT APNS ====================== (5-20-2014)
Final for 4.4 octhrope apns 4.4!
============ NEW APNS FOR ALL ROMS ============ (11/1/2013)
V7 for 4.1 / 4.2 octhrope lite apn v7
V8 for 4.3 octhrope lite apn v8
PLEASE POST SUCCESS or FAILURES! (Rom, Radio, APN)
IF THERE ARE ANY TING USERS OUT THERE WITH WORKING MMS ON AOSP ROMS - PLEASE SEND ME YOUR APNS-CONF.XML!!! (/system/etc/)
It would be greatly appreciated!
Big THANKS to bigfdaddy2, tabormeister, VoluntaryMan, and poo706!!!
Thanks to all who have submitted information or data!
REMEMBER! Always Backup Apns before flashing. Flash at your own risk. hopefully this helps others.
I am not affiliated with Ting; other than being a customer, Ting has yet to,(or may never),endorse or acknowledge these apns.

Notes:
[5-20-2014] - Updated 4.4 Apns to smaller format.
[11-1-2013] - Added Lite roms for both v7 and v8. v7 is 4.2 and 4.1, v8 is 4.3.
[10-30-2013] - Did some fiddling with making a universally accepted apn. I usually test everything before I upload it. That being said this is a test version I haven't used yet...
[9-23-2013] - New installer script courtesy of VoluntaryMan. Implemented as hotfix.
[9-20-2013] - Injecting the APNs into the rom before flashing seems to help. In my experience the system lost the apns after the first reboot and flashing them again made them stick.
[9-9-2013] - If its still not working, LGNPST the Teeny Original bin then the Teeny Alt Bin SLB Stack. Do one, the phone restarts; then do the other.
[8-27-2013] I am going to try to assemble a Frankenstein's Monster APN with every Sprint/Ting APN I can find and give that a shot too. So if the lights start to flicker you'll know why...
Unsuccessful so far...
[8-23-2013] update: Pulled the APN Stock files out of the ZVB rom... 3 different apns; looks like US, EU, KR.
ZVB Stock Deodex APNS
[8-23-2013]I'm going to try to pull the APN from a stock rooted phone at some point to compare with the clean, and custom ones. If anyone has one just pm a link. thanks.
[8-7-2013] Also am having some success with reflashing the jb modem. gives me the you've lost data error when im in the bathroom and loose data but not sending multiple sms messages.
[7-12-2013] If you use a Custom User Agent, (messages > settings > custom user agent) dont use iphone as Ting does not support them.
[7-2-2013] Some Ad Blocking programs will block mms. idk why the phones apns are not excluded from the shiz but adding your apns to the white list or removing the app should fix it.
manual fixes
fix 1
Open Voice Dialer, say "Open APN's"
Change all http://mms.sprintpcs.com to http://mms.plspictures.com
Select one of the profiles with the correct MMSC in it.
Reboot
fix 2
Open your root explorer, navigate to /system/etc and find apns-conf.xml
Copy it to another location
Change all instances of http://mms.sprintpcs.com to http://mms.plspictures.com
Copy and paste it back into /system/etc - overwrite old file
Reboot

Setting a Custom User Agent TEMPORARILY Fixed the issue (messages > settings > custom user agent) Nokia N95.
did a bunch of testing and this is the only solution that was consistent. i suspect that Ting has no support for a generic android device on their network. after a couple days its back to not working.
fix 3
i did fix 1 but added the proxy and the port to all of the APNs (this might be wrong...)
proxy: 68.28.31.7
port: 80
reboot and sent picture.

EDIT: This method might help? Someone should go back to stock, backup working APNS and test them on CM. I can do this eventually. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=35338440&postcount=7

That's basically the ting APN file above. I didn't have success pulling the apns off of a stock based jb ROM. Maybe if I new the location... I could just adb into it and pull the config file out.
I may be incorrect here, but it feels like there might be another setting somewhere... Like a MMS only setting hanging out.
Also bumped up to 4.3, when doing the open apns trick it shows no apns. Which is strange because I flashed them and the Lte is working.

I've noticed that too, on the GS3 on Ting. I haven't checked if my LTE and picture mail are working, I've just been using stock sprint apns for the last few days.
If you mean the location of the apn-config.xml, it's in /system/etc and one doesn't need to be rooted on stock to read/copy it.

I meant another place where the phone holds apns or settings for apks.
I noticed there is an extra hyphen in all of the stock apns before the <apns. I wonder if it makes a difference.

That's interesting...maybe LG stock reads apns differently for some reason? Oddly just flashed to 4.3 this morning w/BaNkS gapps, wiped cache/dalvik/system, and on boot LTE worked fine. I haven't tested mms yet though
I didn't mean to sound condescending, whoops my bad.

really? i always have to flash a apn list otherwise it wont get lte. I've been testing handcent again today because it has a place to enter custom mms apns... still not sending. Talking with the peeps on IRC, mms is a crap shoot on all aosp roms. they were saying 50% of the time it doesn't work. which makes this job even harder. IDK, maybe there is more to the apn settings than we can see or maybe the stock rom calls home or can access something differently.

I know, it's weird, but both devices I've flashed 4.3 on I wiped system (in twrp, assuming it does a decent job?) and lte worked on boot. I'm actually kind of confused about it, but also not complaining.
Maybe gosms? I've heard it also has custom mms settings. The most curious thing to me is that the phone thinks it's sending mms but they never actually are received by the other end.

No way! Maybe LG stock has apn code baked into the messaging app somehow then? I'm tempted to just download an lg zip and dig around. OR do you think it has something to do with the EFS partitions? Digging around in EFS backups and a stock zip.

im thinking its buried in one of the partitions... but the lg message apk is 3 times the size of the aosp one. could be either. apk would prob be easier to go through.

on it

Started digging around but didn't really know what I was looking for. Here's the manifest from the LGUSMms app and the app itself, if that helps in any way whatsoever?

Would this work for ecomobile? Haven't received any pics and when sent they say pending ...using nexusos rom

it should as long as you can find the apns; then just swap them out.

[Q] MMS not working for CM 12.1

Anyone else having problems sending or receiving with MMS on the nightly builds for CM 12.1? My SMS works just fine.
I have Ting, which may be part of my problem. I am using the same APN settings that use to work for MMS in CyanogenMod 11.

Yep. I've been fighting this for 3 days now. I must have tried every CM 12.1 variant out there with the same result. The APN list shows Ting... but you cannot select it, modify it, or save it. Reset to Default APN doesn't work... Rebooting 18 times doesn't work... flashing the various APN "fixes" like for FreedomPop, MVNO_CDMA, etc doesn't work. But like you... SMS, Phone, and Data (on WiFi) work fine. However, MMS and data (on 3G/4G) don't work.
What has worked... backing off to either a Stock ROM or CM 11. So something in these recent CM 12.1 builds is just broken. The only reason I was trying to upgrade from CM 11 to CM 12.1 was because of that StageFright vulnerability. So I may just go with the Stock ROM until I see the CM 12.1 APN issue for Ting has been resolved.

I've been using the clear google messaging app from the TBO updater app and just installed their latest hangouts to try. They both have been handling mms better than any other messaging apps and sometimes the stock mms will work by just having the gmessenger app installed. I've been rom hopping lately and it seems pretty much the same for me across most CM12.1 based ROMs. Also, you could try editing the actual apns-conf.xml file under /system/etc/ back it up first tho and for permissions 644. from my Virgin Mobile Tri-Band model S3

You should be able to modify Ting by touching the name, even when the button for selecting it is absent. You may need to add "default" to the type once you have it open. I have Ting and I have had to deal with this somewhat as well. I believe I saw some recent Ting APN updates get pushed through as well. Have you tried Exodus?
There is also another thread in here about lollipop and 5.1 which has information that may help.

Exodus? Nope... but I'll be checking it out now!
If you don't mind me asking more about the APN. How many are actually needed in there? If I were to delete all the APNs and just manually setup the 1 needed... is it just the LTE version pointing to http://mms.plspictures.com ... or ... http://mms.sprintpcs.com and making sure the "type" has "default" in it? It's the one thing that I can't understand. Out of every forum I've read... not 1 mentions just blowing all the APNs away and just simply adding a single APN for Ting. I don't think I really need all 8-16 APNs (depending on the ROM you flash).
And this question is open to anyone. Is there any reason you have to have all those APNs for other networks like Boost, FreedomPop, Boost Mobile, etc? What should the APN contents be for just Ting? Inquiring minds want to know.

I actually tried that myself but didn't have any luck with it sticking past reboot or even holding the data signal right. It's possible it might work. I don't know enough about APN's to say for sure. Did you try adding "default" to the beginning of the Ting APN type and then save it?

Let's ask the customary question. When you flashed CM11 via Safestrap, did you flash it to the stock slot? If not, that's the problem. Just flash it to the stock slot and it should work.
