+1000 to that, thats my only bloat left!

on my att phone, hot spot seemed to be a shortcut that linked to the tethering section of my phones settings. because of this, I figured it was not a standalone app that you could delete. instead I thought maybe it was a shortcut that the carriers created to go right to tethering settings. I ended up just hiding the application so it doesn't show up in my app drawer. if anyone finds a more permanent solution id like to know!

Sending/Receiving MMS Over Wifi

I have searched this, but there seems to be no unified answer lately, so I thought I'd give it a new go now. Basically, is it possible to do it?

With WiFi calling on and using either gosms or native text app, it does not work for me. It just says sending.

Its blocked intentionally by tmobile for "security reasons" if I'm remembering correctly.
It should kick on your mobile data and send it though.
Are you using any roms or sms/mms mods?

MMS over WiFi calling works for me and I've been using it for a while now.. It even works without data being enabled, it shows the message that data is not enabled blah blah blah and that it will send once it is active or something but it ends up sending it anyway and I checked my sister's phone to make sure she received it and she did.. Tried it twice with the stock MMS app so maybe if you try using a different ROM

I have terrible cell service at home. Can't send MMS without Wi-Fi calling, it just never goes through. With Wi-Fi calling on, it takes just a couple seconds. It definitely works.
Check /system/app for gba-service-TMO-Signed.apk. You need that to send MMS over WiFi.

You are right! Couldve sworn it would activate mobile data and send that way.....now that I'm thinking about it, I think that's how it worked on my old phone! Oops.
Sorry bout that. But i just tried it and it works fine for me. Thanks aero!

I've tried it with both Wifi calling on & off, with no positive results. And as for that .apk, is it "gba-service-TMO-Signed.apk"? Or can you post a link to whatever it is?

You can pull it from the stock rom and copy it to your /system/app directory. Make sure permission is correct then reboot and try again.
I'm just guessing, but Im thinking in some cases people who don't know what it does remove it thinking its bloat since it has tmo in the name.

Used permissions rw-r-r. Put both in system/app and rebooted. Still a no go. In both gosms and native app, pic just sits there, saying sending (native) and sending flashing green arrow (gosms). Again, I tried it both with WiFi calling on and off, and let each try sit for 5+ minutes.

This is becoming problematic for me, as I like to send pics often, but are always on WiFi at home and anywhere I can pick it up. Network indoors at home is spotty, but manageable.

If any of the files were missing from the rom, you could add them back in and reflash. Maybe they would make a difference then.

MMS issue on Solavei

I have a solavei SIM, and have for quite some time, never had any issues. All of a sudden I can't send mms, I've tried all the apn's and even factory reset, all the way up to odin the phone all the way back. I still can't get mms to work. Someone please help. The phone is tmobile s3, locked, never had any issues, not rooted.

If it just happened randomly, then it's probably on the carrier side. Call and see if they made any changes recently that could affect this. Otherwise, I'm just not sure.

I don't I'm puzzled by this. I had someone look into it for me. The only thing they could come up with was my phone is T-Mobile kicked do they can't help me.. yet they're a T-Mobile mvno
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

I'm actually wondering if it could be T-Mobile's fault....sorta. with all of their recent changes and network upgrades, couldn't it be possible that some important things are now different, but your carrier has no idea about it as they may not have been informed? Or maybe something like this wasn't expected. It's just a guess of course, but I know the primary apn changed in markets where T-Mobile deployed LTE. Maybe other things changed too?
I know you said you tried the different apn's, but try the file linked below. Rename the current apns-conf.xml with .bak and copy this one over. It's in /system/etc/ I believe. Then reboot and see if it helps. It's all I can think to try right now. But this has only the new T-Mobile apn. All others are removed.

I'm using Solavei just fine make sure you APNS are setup properly and that you save and select the apn to use. Dont just press back. You can download the solavei app to set up your phone if you still cant figure it out.

If you're stock, not rooted, there's not a lot you can do. Chances are it's an issue on the carrier side still. Have you tried your SIM in another device? Tried a new, or someone else's SIM?

Well I can still send mms if I use a third party app, without having to use Wi-Fi.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk now Free

Usually a stock sms/mms app sends via the carrier, so it goes over a secure line through their servers....or something similar to that. Hard to explain. 3rd party apps don't care about your carrier and just send over the internet, be you connected via WiFi or mobile data.

Fixed it! Had to modify the solavei apn. Basically mms proxy had to be black, had to change authentication type to none, add the ,supl,mns,admin,hipri whatnot. Basically even though this was suppose to be imei specific, it was incorrect.

Here's a preemptive answer to a question that's been asked countless times about this ROM- "How do I change the battery icon?"
Assuming you installed OGBatteryMod, tap on the battery icon in your status bar 3 times and you'll be presented with a list of many icons and can make your selection there.

Treve mod has a native framework tether option but you would still have to use the app to tether. I will look into it first thing in the morning. There's really no reason for it not to work right after you flash the ROM. I use treve mod but the native method also works. The only difference between your plan and mine is that I have true unlimited. That means that I have support for 2gigs of hotspot and unlimited data. The modded tethering provision.apk from TheSickness is working right out of the box for me. I can use the hotspot as much as I need.
BTW. On chrome you can change your user agent under developer tools. Look here http://www.technipages.com/google-chrome-change-user-agent-string

This is what I would try next if I was having your problem. I would save the tethering provision.apk from v4 to my SD card. Then I would flash v8 again and once it boots up I would replace the v8 tethering provision.apk with v4 and set permissions to rw- r-- r--. It's definitely worth a try. I wouldn't be surprised if it works!

OK. Download es file manager if you don't already have it and give it root access. Go to system/app and copy the tethering provision.apk and paste it somewhere where it will be easy for you to find it. Like the download folder. Then flash v8 and open es file manager go to system/app again and delete tethering provision.apk. now go to wherever you saved the v4 apk and copy it then paste it in system/app. Long press on the apk and click on properties. Then just change permissions to rw- r-- r-- and reboot. You should be able to tether now.

Ya, I remember a bunch of ppl on the s4 forums trying to get wifi calling working on aosp roms. Never could get it, said it was built in and they couldn't get it out. Never personally looked though. We won't have to worry about it soon though, Lollipop will have it built in. So in theory, the aosp versions of 5.0 should too.
