Without know what "almost everything" there isn't much to suggest...
Can you send MMS?
Cab you make a call?
Did you clean flash?
Is it only on that ROM?
Is your imei still there?
Did you check your APN settings?

Just had to flash back to Stock since i couldn't quite get it right. I Could make calls, i checked my APN Settings and everything looked normal,my Imei was still there but i never tried sending MMS(although i knew i couldn't receive them). If i ever wanna flash back to this Rom(not sure if i did it right the first time) any good tips on how to do it correctly without having this problem again? Thanks.

without knowing what caused the problem we can't tell you anything new to help you prevent it.
you're going to keep hearing "clean flash, full wipe, see if the problem's there still" because we don't know everything about your phone and what could be causing your problem, and a full wipe solves many problems.

i Did a Full wipe. Flashed back to ParanoidKangDroid and problem still persists... what Vital information could i share to help me fix this?
i Personally LOVE this rom and would like to keep it but this MMS issue is definitely a problem. if Logcat is needed ill try to post one. Im still a little noobish so please bear with me.
**NOTE. Last night when i flashed it i was able to send and recieve mms. & now i Can't. This Also happened yesterday afternoon before i posted this thread. It seems like it only works when it wants to...

i Used both ChompSMS and Stock messaging. As Of right now Everything appears to be working im Able to send and receive (FOR NOW, Atleast) ... Earlier i went into CWM and WIPED ALL DATA (Factory Reset and Dalvik Cache) and Rebooted my phone. Not sure if thats what got it to work... but usually the MMS stop working (from what ive noticed). Will continue testing Sending\Receiving mms throughout the day. Thanks. Ill be back if problem Re emerges.:good:
***UPDATE. Spoke WAYYY too soon, Problem Persists -__-**
Seems like after i Got all my Apps setup and running MMS fails.. idk if im Correct but just an observation. I can Make Calls,Use data,receive/send SMS. but Cant send or Receive MMS.

This may sound tedious but I'd reinstall an app at a time and try to send a message. Something is interfering. Are you restoring through Google or titanium backup? Are you restoring system data if you are using titanium? That can cause problems...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app

you could try Settings > More > Mobile Networks > APN and choose Reset to default (which should be read off your sim). Restart your S3 and test your data connections.
i'm assuming you're not using straight talk or anything but at&t on your phone, correct? mms dont send over wifi

Ive been restoring through Google... Tedious but worth a Try. Thanks for that suggestion. Hopefully i can get to the bottom of this.. i Just went back to Stock. Will try again later when i have a more time to keep playing with it. hmmm i Wonder what could be interfering

Correct. Ive messed around with the APN settings on previous installs (Reset to Default and Reboot) and the problem is still there... Might have to give it another try after i flash this rom again. Although there was an Occasion where i did that (Reset to Default and Reboot) and it worked but only for a short amount of time then MMS fails again.

[Q] Evo mms/3g issues

i searched and read every thread i could find to help resolve this issue but came up with no results. my evo was flashed to boost mobile and had the fresh rom, i later changed it to myn's warm two point two rls5 but now both my mms and 3g isnt working. i tried changing the server and everything but it still doesnt work. can anyone help?????
Are you able to flash back to the fresh rom and, if so, is MMS and 3G working? If it is working correctly with the fresh rom, it should work with RLS-5. When you initially flashed the fresh rom, what changes, if any, did you make to get it to work properly with Boost Mobile? Can you not apply the same methods with RLS-5? Did you do a full wipe/data reset prior to flashing RLS-5? I've never been with Boost Mobile so forgive me for my line of questioning.

it worked fine when i had fresh flashed on there and it worked for a while when i flashed warm 2.2 then suddenly it stopped working and so did my mms. i flashed da latest radio and still got no results. im now using warm z and still no 3g.

I think the reason your MMS/3G and other things aren't working is because you flashed a different radio. The radio you had previously was set to receive boost mobile's data and stuff.
You may want to see if you can revert back to the radio you originally had.
I flashed the radio, nv, and pri while on Boost and everything still worked. I think what happened is that your APN got overwritten when you flashed your ROM. Wipe your data and let it provision:
##3282#
edit
(enter your msl)
data
menu
restore
next time you flash a ROM backup your APN with apnmanager or apnbackup from the market.

provisioning didn't work?
thats because you earased your data settings even if you do a reset chances are you will not be authenticated in ##debug# menu in evdo at the bottom it will not say your authenticated you will get 1xxrt speeds after the ##786#rest and letting phone provision right after the reset but to get your 3g takes more steps than just provisioning.....

[Q] HTC Evo 4g Cyanogenmod 7 STOPPED receiving MMS

I know starting new threads is a risky thing here, but I feel my situation is peculiar/unique enough to justify the risk.
I've been running CM7 and using ChompSMS (donated) ever since using Android, many devices ago. This is the first time something like this has ever happened. A couple days ago, my phone stopped downloading MMSs. I can send myself a message (text with a subject) and the notification that the message is waiting for me will come in, but it will not download. I called Sprint and got the code to reprovision the phone, so I downloaded a stock rom and punched it in. The stock rom would download messages just fine. Switching back to CM7 (I tried multiple nightly builds, as well as the most recent stable build), the messages stopped coming in again. I googled all over the place and the best solutions I found was to delete "telephony.db" or to try "APN backup & restore," restoring the APN with settings that worked for somebody else. Every time I restored the APN, it would just remove all the entries. I tried to restore defaults (which brought back a "Sprint" one), reboot, no dice.
The only solution I've gotten to thus far was to download Go SMS Pro, which can download the MMS, after the notification has already come in and I go in to hit download manually. Yes, this gets the job done, but it's just a band-aid over the problem. I'm mostly curious just what exactly caused this, why it persists over every CM install (but not the stock rom), and why I can't seem to find any way to fix it.
A quick update to this, in case anybody has been keeping tabs. This problem spans across multiple roms. I've since installed an MIUI ICS rom, more versions of CM7, a very buggy version of CM9 ported, and another gingerbread rom, all of which kept the problem going. The only rom that works is the most recent rooted stock rom I downloaded. I REALLY don't want to go back to stock if I can help it. Any ideas now? Would flashing new radios help this? If so, I have to be S-OFF to do so, correct?
Thanks for all your help, those that do!
been having the save issue with MMS but I use Handcent not chompSMS, it also wont download using the Roms stock SMS app. it seems to happen on any ASOP rom that I've tried. but any sense based roms seem to work fine. goSMSpro also works for me if I manually hit download (thanks cause that's better than nothing). I have tried to flash new radios, along with flashing CM with a formatted mem car. and nothing seems to work. so If you find a resolution please keep this updated. good luck
I've been having the same problem for the past couple weeks with CM7. I've tried everything the Google suggested, changing the APN, turning off auto-retrieve, disabling MMS with Sprint and re-enabling it after a while, etc., nothing worked. I tried a few different roms too. I can't get MMS to work on any rom unless it's sense based.

Doing this won't cause any other issues? I really want to get this to work because I'm having the same issue on a CM7-based rom.

It says in the first post, we tried deleting telephony.db
Some of us have tried flashing multiple fresh roms, which I believe would delete telephony.db
Mms won't work unless it's a sense based rom.

I run into the same issue on Deck's Reloaded occasionally. More often than not, though, MMS works. Have never bothered troubleshooting it since it's hardly ever an issue.

Same problem
I'm having the same problem with CM7 on Evo 4G. I can get it to work with sense based rom and goSMS (thank you for posting that, I was about to bail on CM7 completely). Stock messenger and handcent won't work. I saw on another thread someone said it would work until flashing gapps, but I haven't tried that. I even tried backing up APN from a sense rom that would work, and restoring it to CM7, as well as deleting telephony.db, nothing works.
Yeaaahhh MMS can either go 1 of 2 ways. Either you try to get it to work and it works fine, like I just did on my evo, OR *nothing* you do seems to make it work.
I should know, I spent about 6 months earlier this year (on and off) getting MMS to work on my HTC Hero.
With that said, the first step is to make sure you're putting in the right APN info.
Start with deleting /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony*
Next, make sure you have the correct APN info in /system/etc/apns-conf.xml
You'll probably have to either sysrw in android terminal or "adb remount" on pc/mac/linux/whatever to make changes to that file.
This one should work on ICS/JB:
google sprint apns-conf.xml
Should be the last one, searchco.de
Just change the version to 6 if you want to use it on GB.
Reboot to make the system create a new telephony.db from /system/etc/apns-conf.xml
If that doesn't work, you may need more apn changes, framework-res.apk changes, mms.apk changes, etc. etc.
Currently my phone will only download mms that is 200kb or less with either the stock messaging app or handcent. I'm going to try some of the trouble shooting steps on this thread and see if anything works.
If anyone has a fix they know of that fixes this particular problem please let me know.

Oh wow.

I have deleted that telephony file.
Nothing works for me.
Its weird cuz when my girlfriend sends me panty pics, it works (she's on an iPhone)
But when my mom sends me pics of my dog, it doesn't let me download. (She has HTC evo 3g)
Im on cm7.2 nightly (newest) w Mason g .15 kernel.
I really don't get why this happens.
Also, another friend of mine has an iPhone 4s like my lady, but I don't get his pics

My girlfriend is having the same problem as everyone else when it comes to MMS. She has my old Evo 4G running CM 7.1. I wiped the cache and dalvik cache, updated the PRL and profile with a sense ROM, but none of this fixed the problem. I can confirm that Go SMS Pro will download picture mail that neither the standard messaging app or Handcent could (they both gave the error "download of message New Message from SENDER was unsuccessful"). Hopefully a fix can be found soon. BTW, thanks for the tip omegastu!

[Q] Flashed CM10.1 Nightly and cannot send SMS. SMSC Number wont save.

I just got a nice new Galaxy Note 2 today, rooted it with Odin, and got CM10 installed just fine with CMW.
I got 4g data just fine, calling works and all that jazz, but SMS and MMS will not get to their destination. It says sent on my phone but it doesnt got to the target phone. Same deal with the other way around.
I was helped is the chat for CM10.1 ( http:/ /webchat.freenode.net/?channels=teamhacksung-support ) and was pointed to a blog that had a passcode in type in.
( http:/ /algorithmic-indian.blogspot.sg/2011/03/how-to-change-message-center-number-in.html )
*#*#4636#*#*
doing so puts me to a testing screen, I drilled down to phone settings and saw that my SMSC number was blank. I refreshed and it populated, but i cant figure out how to get it to save or apply. The settings will not stick.
I've reflashed and it still persists. Any ideas? I am going to reflash stock and see if that fxes it, but if anyone has any ideas I would be awesome.

I've had issues before with mms not sending on 4.2.2. What I did to fix my issue was I had a original backup made of my apn settings when I was on stock. I made the backup with apn backup and restore free in play store. Now on 4.2.2 or 4.1.2 apn backup restore app does not restore apn's but if you follow the devs instructions on making apn backup and restore a system app thru titanium backup and go in the apps settings and click the ics disable check it will restore your original apn backup. first in the app I clicked the delete apns option to clear all apns on the phone then did the actual restore of the original backup and rebooted, waited a bit and bingo mms worked once again. Now I know what your going to say your apn settings are good, well so were mine when I had mms issues and the delete of all apns and restore of my original fixed the issue. Hope this helps, did for me each time.

I just re-flashed to stock and I am still not getting SMS sent or received?!?!?! Where can I find proper ATT APN settings to duplicate?
Come to think of it I am not 100% sure I ever sent a SMS before I flashed. I literally took it home and flashed....Maybe I need to go back to the ATT store and ask some questions.

There are posts on some ATT apn setting in the forums here, im with rogers so can't share u mine unfortunately. As for never sending a sms when u got your phone it could be a possibility ATT fuxored your plan or something but you'd have to restore back to pure stock with counter cleared and status back to normal before bringing it back to ATT.

Yeah I got that all sorts of stock now. Ive researched and found my settings are correct. More research leads me to believe ATT messed up upgrading my plan.

It doesn't have to be completely stock thought that is the safest method. I've returned 3 and they were all rooted just flash a stock rom and you should be good.

So, I went into ATT with all intentions of returning the phone. I told the lady the issue and she looked at my account and saw that they forgot to turn SMS/MMS/and MM2AM back on!
I was going from an old 2010 Sim card, from when I got my ATT Tilt (since then I only bought full unlocked phones, Motorola Droid, Nexus 1 and just swapped the SIM Card), so when they got me my new Micro-SIM and upgraded my grandfathered Unlimited data plan, they forgot to turn SMS on.
I would like to thank everyone who tried to help me, I really do appreciate it!
Good to hear so they did bork the transfer. Glad you got it sorted

Now on 4.2.2 or 4.1.2 apn backup restore app does not restore apn's but if you follow the devs instructions on making apn backup and restore a system app thru titanium backup and go in the apps settings and click the ics disable check it will restore your original apn backup. first in the app I clicked the delete apns option to clear all apns on the phone then did the actual restore of the original backup and rebooted, waited a bit and bingo mms worked once again. Now I know what your going to say your apn settings are good, well so were mine when I had mms issues and the delete of all apns and restore of my original fixed the issue. Hope this helps, did for me each time.

This worked for me to get MMS to send on cm10.1. Everything is FINE on stock touchwizz.. so I did your method, and flash AOSPA, and now MMS can send... HOWEVER...
When I install AT&T Messages, it will NOT send MMS.... I really don't want to part with AT&T messages, I love it... I keep heading back to TW because I want to use AT&T Messages...
have you had any success with AT&T Messages on CM10.1 and MMS?

[Q] I can't send text messages???

It's been a week now and I still can't send any text messages.
I receive msgs but unable to respond back...
I thought it was because I finally updated to Jellybean (I've had ICS for awhile so I thought I should just stick to that) but then I downgraded last night to ICS and I still can't send messages.
well today I tried fixing it but still no luck, although I tried sending an MMS instead, I sent myself a picture and it worked! even tried it to other numbers and they received it. I also tried adding a text with the picture and it did work. but it's still not working when I just type in a text...
so anyway in short, I can't send SMS but can send MMS (and receive messages as well)
also extra: I can call people but whenever they call me it comes up as unknown number...
and btw I already checked the message centre number and it has the right number in it so I don't think the issues w/ that
Does anyone of you know what might be the problem? How can I fix it? Thanks
Did you flash new modem? Or did you Odin stock 4.1.2?

what does that mean? im sorry im not good at this but well i did something last night, i downgraded back to ICS 4.0.3 (from 4.1.2) using odin
I thought that would resolve the issue since everything occured after I upgrade to jellybean 4.1.2... but im now back to the old version but SMS still wont work. (but I can receive msgs and send a msg if it's MMS, which is very strange)

flash to a 4.1.2 or higher, i would recommend it since you always want to have the newest software since it makes your phone run buttery smooth lol. flash to another rom you want and flash properly! if sms still dont work find a radio zip file you can flash(but make sure its the one right for your rom!) and that should fix it

There's no right or wrong radio for particular roms. If its 4.1.2 or higher, there's only 2. Period. The new T-Mobile and the new Telus. They're the only 2 that work on any JB rom these days.

Well I don't have to now because it's fixed!
There wasn't any issue on my phone........ it was T-mobile all along -__-
I called them this morning and apparently they had my sent messages blocked, and they didn't had any idea why.
So they unchecked it and I can text perfectly fine.
Thanks for trying to help~!
I have this same problem, I'm going to call my service provider soon.

no signal after flashing rom

i have a samsung galaxy s3, ive been rooted for a long time and flashing roms all the time. well i flashed a rom just now and i have no signal, not sure if i burned out the radio (not sure if thats possible, but it also said to insert sim card while it was already inserted), but i dont understand how that would happen. the sim card works in another phone that im using now, so its not the sim card thats causing the issue. my carrier is at&t, and no signal showing, not data or cell (wifi still works, but thats a different story). has anyone experienced this and know how to fix it? im guessing modem flashing, but not entirely sure. can someone please point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance!

just a suggestion, but try rebooting your phone again. this happened to me before and i got freaked out but a reboot has fixed this on a few occasions. running a flashed rom just fine right now.

I believe you need to do a factory reset. Backup your data first!

The first thing to troubleshoot you should do is flash back to a rooted stock rom and make sure the data is working there. If so this will rule out any sort of hardware problem. You didn't say whether or not you did but you can also try fully wiping the phone (dalvik/cache, system, and data), re-download the rom incase you had a bad one the first time and reflash. Other than that check that maybe check the apn settings.
Yup I ended up doing that last night..im back on the stock root injected rom. So im still rooted and network now works! So im glad. How would I flash a rom without losing the network this time?

Now that you have flashed back to stock a full wipe has been done in the process. At this point all you can do is flash it and see, but as i said i would redownload if you plan on using whatever rom it was you mentioned in the OP. I would also do a full nandroid backup to save the pain of using odin incase it doesn't work. I imagine the problem was with lingering files/fragments from multiple flashes that were causing the problem, in any case whatever the problem happened to be it was software related.
K will do. Its just weird because the md5 matched and everything..but I will for sure download the rom and gapps again. Thanks for the tips!

well, i finally got the service to work after flashing a rom. it still remains a mystery to me tho, i used to always use the illusion rom everyday, for months. i decide to flash the same exact one but no service, i download it a couple more times and still no service after flashing about 3 or 4 times. i tried a completely different rom and the service is active. i dont understand why and cant figure out what is so different this time hah. o well, im just glad its all working now even though its with a different rom. thanks for the help guys!
ok, im back =[
i was using the carbon rom with no problems, it was working great, but just a half hour ago i was listening to music and texting (i always do this), and then phone just turned off. I tried to reboot it but it wont! it always shuts off while booting. i made it to CWM, but it turns off while in CWM. i also made it to download mode, which led me to assume that the phone is not bricked, but it doesnt stay on download mode, it just turns off randomly. i figured maybe it was battery, so i tried another, and no change! does anyone know what the issue is? i cant figure out how to keep the phone ON, or why its not staying on.
btw, i got it to boot completely just once, and it was acting up still. any ideas? please help
Thanks in advance

Already flashed back to backed up stock rom but still no signal. But when I use the MIUI rom, it has signal.

What is the bootloader and baseband version on the phone? Which version of stock are you flashing?
