Hi guys,
I live on campus and we have wifi everywhere and so I have the 200mb option to save some pennies.
Can I disable mobile data somehow but leave MMS (MMS does not count towards tmobile data). It already racked up 60mb. That and it might save some battery too, who knows.
Are you saying if you turn off mobile data you lose MMS? I'm confused..
Settings-> Data usage-> untick Mobile Data

Yes, that's what happens, I don't know how to stop it, but it looses all mms capabilities when you loose mobile data.

If you are on stock ROM i think there is a way to use MMS over WiFi calling. But after a quick google, it seems like third party apps such as GOSMS and Handcent dont like MMS over WiFi calling. So just use the stock MMS app. Remember, this is only if you are on a stock ROM or TouchWiz ROM. AOSP ROMs do not work at all with WiFi calling (From what i remember)
There is no way to disable data and still receive MMS.

Yes there is. Google MMS over WiFi calling. Kinda wish it worked on AOSP
What do you mean by "Google MMS" ? The stock messenger? OP it seems like it should work unless you don't have wifi calling enabled?

Let me rephrase that: There is no way in stock android to receive MMS while data is off.
If you're rooted, download LBE Priacy Guard or Droidwall and disable and whitelist only the messenger

Ohhhh I thought he meant use Google MMS over wifi calling.
On stock ICS with the stock messaging app I was able to MMS myself to email and back with mobile data unchecked. I have wifi calling.

this seems like the only solution so far. Thanks
The only solution, even though not the best, would be to switch to an HTC phone.
The only phones I know that are able to receive MMS with Mobile Data off are HTC phones.
Otherwise no other phone I've used does it and stock Android doesn't do it either.

Dude just call T-Mobile and ask them to disable your internet data but leave your MMS open!! Works perfectly!
AT&T unfortunately doesn't do this, but T-Mobile sure does. I used to be on T-Mobile but switched 3 months ago and found out that I was screwed by AT&T since they won't disable internet.

Why can't I receive or send mms when WiFi is connected. I didn't have this issue on sprint. It sucks cause I have to turn off WiFi and then it has to connect to edge then eventually on 4g before i can get or send my mms quicker. I have to use WiFi a lot on this device so I don't go over my cap so I need to have WiFi on at home and work. Very frustrating.

This happens on and off on my Amaze. I just think it doesnt work that well in general with tmo
My wife can't download mms on WiFi with at&t
I have the same problem with Verizon.
MMS are the texts with data right? Yeah I noticed I can't send with just wifi.
Normal text are fine.
AT&T btw for the XDA app users.
Edit: I noticed you said at all when I reread it. I can send em fine with wifi enabled but I have to have mobile network enabled as well.
Maybe this is more common than i thought.
MultiMediaMessages needs your data access to send. WiFi will not work.

You youre right that it does need data but I think what its supposed to do is switch to mobile network real quick and send/receive then revert back to wifi. The issue is its not doing this on my Tmobile s3.
Edit: Ran a few more test. Had my gf send me 2 mms while I was on wifi and I was able to recieve 1. But other I couldnt receive. It may have something to do with my data connection as I get 50% edge. I have a feeling that when its on edge while wifi is on that it cant DL the mms but on 4g while wifi is on it will work. I need to run a test outdoor where I get full 4g but still connect to wifi.
Same issue here, on simple mobile, I will assume is GS3 MMS bug and when you do receive MMS, it's pretty small
Just use gmail.
People really need to start using email in lieu of mms, the pictures don't get distorted, it sends/receives faster, handles much larger files
I don't know why people even use mms anymore. Everything should be done in email.

Yes, you're right. Life is about choices.
Just like people can "choose" to drive 3,000 miles instead of taking a flight. Or they can "choose" to ship via snail mail instead of UPS.
Doesn't mean their choices and/or preferences aren't ineffective or moronic, or that people want to hear them whine about the "choices" they make.
Aside from that, it doesn't look like it's a "choice" on Wifi. So you can choose to send an email and be done with it, or choose to whine and stomp your feet on xda which has virtually no effect on the situation other than rounding up other whiners.
It's like people complaining about using Blu-Ray and complaining they can't stream VHS to their phone

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.

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.

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.
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.

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.

Yes. I've tried Textra and Chomp and they both don't work.

I had the same problem with Textra (love this app). After researching and testing different APN settings, I finally found the one that works like a charm.
Create a new APN and use the values from the screen shots I have attached. Don't forget to enable "activate data" in Textra MMS settings. Then reboot and enjoy.

On wifi yes, not on wifi calling. That's something only enabled in stock sms app.
So I'm not totally sure what is different in my settings from others. However my MMS was not working over wifi when I used the new APN. I eventually turned wifi calling to use "cellular network when available" and all of a sudden it seems to be working. I had the setting in textra selected to use data when sending and receiving, but it didn't seem to be doing anything

Anyone having issues with Textra not being able to send MMS once or twice a day? I keep getting the red exclamation mark and have to reset my phone for it to work. Bummer, I had to go back to stock messenger because it was getting way too annoying.

I had the same problem with Textra (love this app). After researching and testing different APN settings, I finally found the one that works like a charm.
Create a new APN and use the values from the screen shots I have attached. Don't forget to enable "activate data" in Textra MMS settings. Then reboot and enjoy.

I noticed this is LTE, what if you are not in an LTE area? Will your phone switch to a different APN from this customized APN? And if it switched would MMS again be broken?
