Every time I flash a fh1e or 18 based ics rom everything wotbut i can send out picture messages i changed the url to boostmobile but it doesn't work.. I even set the dns open but still it doesn't work... Any suggestions would be appreciated... N yes i tried the apn cut n the leaked boostmobile rom...
Try using three go SMS app you can find it in the market. it should also allow you to manually change your apn settings in it's settings menu, maybe that might work. I know the only ROM i use is the rooted stock ics ROM because it's the only one i can send and receive mms on for some reason

Ah-ha, I had this exact problem!! And I solved it like this!!
1. Delete ALL APN's from your device!!
2. Input the APN settings from O2 (Here: http://mobilereviews.o2.co.uk/devices/device.jsp?deviceId=651&tab=8&step=2&settingId=3201 )
3. Press so the green dot is selected (This APN will take care of Internet Access AND MMS, no need for 2)
4. Reboot your device.
5. When your phone starts up again, go to Messaging, Press Menu and go to Settings
6. Scroll down to Custom User Agent
7. Select iPhone (3.0)
(Optional) 8. If you are using Handcent (or another SMS App, you will have to change the User Agent in there to match).
PLEASE NOTE!!
If you are using Handcent, you may not be able to download MMS pictures via Handcent itself. If I receive a MMS I need to go to the Stock Messaging app and download it via that!!
Hope it goes well for you and let me know if it works!

I tried LOADS of APN's (including ones which came with various ROMs) and the one from O2 is the only one I have had to work.
Hi Mate
Instructions seemed to work ok but its a bit of a pain that you need to download the mms manually in the stock app first
not sure why the download button within Handcent doesnt work!
but none the less, thanks for the iphone 3 tip
cheers

hey i just installed HTC-Runnymede-Beta-inc1 rom and now i cant send mms messages keep getting message saying sending address unresolved any ideas how to fix this thanks
its just and idea but the number either might or might not need the 1 in front of it
same here I been using go SMS but it is hit or miss with mms. Ive asked someone to help with this hopefully they figure it out for me.
Try using the apn here http://www.mediafire.com/?1cva8wrluvd0kbi
Replace the X's with your phone number. Use apn backup and restore to delete apns and the restore the one you modified and reboot your phone. Let me know if it works
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
message me with your email address's and phone number and i will send you an apn file that is set up for you, and instructions on where to put it and what programs to use
i am currently running 666th sense rom with working wap mms and market
as soon as titanium backup is done with my current rom i will be testing my apn with a few other roms on my phone
Hello i would like to ask a fast question, how would i be able to edit the APN on a ICS rom for htc evo 4g cause i have metropcs and apn manager, or apn backup restore wont work, any help that would helpp me fix this will recieve a gift via paypal
ICS blocked 3rd party apps from writing the apn so your best bet would be to use GOSMS Pro and change the mms settings under advanced in the menu options since it doesn't write to the apn it just uses the apn thru the SMS app leaving the apn partition intact
We are legion, for we are many
oh ima give it a try if it works ill pm you
That's the only thing I can think of until an ics with epst is available and you can use the ## codes to access the apn partition I'm not sure why Google blocked apps from accessing the apn unless they are trying to prevent carrier flashing but idk why they would care since they aren't the phone provider

thats exactly what im saying like seriously why would they even care they just sell the phones. but thanks man im going to have to wait.
I found another fix but it will require a PC the rom zip, 7zip, Apk manager and notepad++ you will have to edit the apn recompile the apk push it back to the romzip with 7zip and the flash the modified rom, or flash it overtop of itself if you don't want to have to reset all of your apps and settings etc

You can use HiApn global from the market to write apn's
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
i got HIAPN working ill let u know if all goes good
If hiapn doesn't work if u send me your rom and the settings you need I can modify the rom for you to flash overitself and get your settings to stick it shouldn't take me more than an hr to decompile mod and recompile the apk you need

Has anyone been able to edit their APN settings successfully on ICS? I used the widget and edited the default Sprint APN and changed it to what my APN backup xml had for Boost Mobile but my MMS isn't working. :/ Tried rebooting my phone and sending another and it says it fails to send and pops up a message saying "Service not activated" or something to that effect. Regular SMS and phone calls work. Help??
Also noticed my voicemail isn't working either. I guess I need to go back to GB ROM, lol.
ICS blocked the ability for 3rd party apps to edit APN so in order to do it you have to manually edit them in the ROM zip prior to flashing at least that's the only way I've been able to figure out so far since there's no epst for ics yet

Can you ecxplain how???
You will have to decompile an apk nod it and recompile it and replace it in the rom zip ill have to look at the exact Apks in a lil bit Im on sprint so I haven't had tto do it another option is to use gosmspro it will allow u to change apn without changing it in the rom so it bypasses the stock settings which is alot easier for ppl who aren't familiar with reading and editing code

U R Awesome!!!

I tried the gosmspro but it has some different firm of settings. All I Ned to do Ia add a 10 digit MdN number and Google.com...
But in the gosmspro app there are very different setting options.
I had backed up my apn settings from the apn backup and restore setting all I want to know is if I can use the generated XML file to get the
einga in the from file itself and if yes then how can one go forward doing that???
I found on the market "apn settings shortcut" links you right to the systems apn menu its not a 3rd party app or a widget so try that and let me know if it works please

Sorry man its just that I had tried many different solutions and yet couldn't get my 3g connection back so decided to just jump to the Clean GB Rom.
But the MIUI Beta v4 rom seems promising and I will be updating soon. Will let you know how things work out.
Hey, I have a HTC Desire 816 (US) for Virgin Mobile. I like the Google Messenger and Hangouts app however I can't seem to send or receive MMS for either app. The stock Messages app works just fine. I've done some research and it appears I need to look into my APN settings. However, I have no idea how to get to those on the phone. The directions that are given lead to know where. Can anybody tell me how to fix this. Thank you.
You probably need to download an app from the play store, I think the one I used for CyanogenMod was called Change APN. Just opens the APN menu for you. Also, the one site I found with Virgin Mobile US APN details had it wrong. But if you're on CM 12, their pre-set APN for VM is correct, you just need to select it in the menu. For the Sense-based ROMs, they don't seem to have it by default.

Thanks for trying to help. I am currently on stock rom and it appears that Virgin Mobile has the APN on lock down. I have not found a way changing it and getting it to work. Everytime I try to add a new apn with CHANGE APN app it says saved but doesn't add it. The one that's in there has a locked symbol on it. It could be because I am on stock rom. However I am rooted and S-Off, I still can't change it. I haven't tried CyanogenMod because I want a fully functional phone. Anybody else have any ideas. All I want to do is use hangout or google messenger with MMS and it work. I think it stupid that its included on the phone and it's not even fully functional. I can get chompsms to work but it has it's own apn settings.

That's interesting cause I personally use hangouts and am also on stock and rooted with s off and it works fine for me. What kind of error is it giving you? Is it immediately failing or failing after trying to send for awhile?
