This is a flashable zip to fix Mms messageing on Metropcs flashed Sprint Galaxy Note ii. Your phone must already be flashed to metropcs with working internet. Boot into recovery, flash the zip and reboot. Mms messaging should work from first boot ( with wifi off ).
Edit: I was ask to add some details as to wat the zips doing and wat I do. I edit the mms-config.xml in the stock Mms.apk/SecMms.apk to settings from verizon which work for metropcs, I also use an apns-conf.xml that I edited for metropcs. the zip will mount data and mount system, it will delete Mms.apk/SecMms.apk and Mms.odex/SecMms.odex, it will delete dalvik-cache for Mms.apk/SecMms.apk, it will delete the telephony.db file in /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/ which countains apns. it will replace Mms.apk/SecMms.apk with the one I edited for metropcs it also replaces the apns-conf.xml in /system/etc/ which countains the default apns for the one I edited for metropcs (on first boot the phone will create a new telephony.db with the default apns countained in this apns-conf.xml, that is why this fix lasts thru a datawipe/factory reset). The zip will also delete devicemanager.apk/sprintdevicemanager.apk/sprintdm.apk to remove the activation prompt every boot.For more details take a look at the updater-script.
I am not responsible for anything that happens
UPDATE: I have updated the 4.1.2tw zip mms now works while connected to wifi, you no longer need to turn off wifi
New zip can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2766197

Ok nevermind wat I said about build.prop I didnt change it in zip so yours already says 310120 oops but now that u changed apns-conf.xml you still need to reset apns to do so use anycut if it fc then install go launcher and anycut and go to a blank screen on go laucher long press on screen u will get option at the bottom scroll over and select shortcut then select anycut then new shortcut then activity go down to apns select it hit ok then go back to the blank go launcher screen there will be a shortcut named apns open it hit menu select reset apns to default and just so u know telephony.DB is in /data/data/com.Android.providers.telephony/databases that where apns r if u do the reset u dont need to delete that if you delete that instead then u need to reboot I like reset better
Edit: I took a look at the zip I made I messed that all up sorry I did it to fast oops let me know if resetting apns fixes the issue if not ima send u another zip to test

Stock phone log gets clogged up with all sent and received SMS logs and I've come across many requests to remove this annoying feature. So based on information provided on XDA (I'd give explicit credits but can't find the original threads) I put together a mod that will prevent SMS and MMS from showing up in the log.
This will only prevent new messages from showing up in the log so after installing this you might need to clear your old log.
Instructions: Put the NoSMSLog_UCALG1.zip in /sdcard folder on your phone and install with Clockworkmod recovery.
I have tested this only on a Samsung Galaxy s3 with rooted stock AT&T rom including the latest update.
(This might also work without CWM by renaming file to update.zip and installing with stock recovery but I haven't tested this.)
Edit: Some have reported errors when flashing so I'm posting the apk and odex file so you can replace the files yourself with root explorer. Both files are supposed to go in the system/app folder and you'll have to mount rw permissions in root explorer.
LogsProvider.zip
Update: It should work now, I've updated the mod.

It's been reported that it keeps resetting itself every time the phone is restarted but most importantly some people don't want that stuff logged.

If this mod is based on this one, this solution removes the logs which is a bad idea, and this may cause Email app FC.
You can follow this HowTo, it just set the "View by" to "All calls".

It doesn't save your choice.
It's not based on the post you mentioned (I actually don't know what method was used there), when I find the original thread I'll be sure to give credit.
I tested this and stock email app works fine on my phone.
oh, sorry, I thought it saved the choice...
Kind of dumb that it doesn't.. Thanks for the mod!
its for the men who talk to other chics behind their girlfriend/wife's back. so when the wife checks the phone, she won't see the logs. women be getting smarter about checking stuff in men's phones

Above method only removes it from view (and only that one time on s3) but it doesn't delete the actual log. This mod prevents sms log from showing up in the first place.

Just to clarify, this mod only prevents new entries in the log. You need to manually delete your old call log. You can test this by sending yourself a text message - it will not show up in your log.

As far as I know error 6 relates to something missing in the script and I double-checked again - the script is fine.
Which carrier are you with? Are you rooted? Do you have the latest update (UCALG1)? Which version of CWM are you using? Does it start flashing and then stop?

Well I just tested it on a different phone and got the same error but I don't have time to figure this out now so I'll just post the apk and odex files which you'll need to push to system/apps and replace the existing files. You can do this with root explorer - you'll have to mount with rw permission.
EDIT: Never mind, figured it out - It works now (script had one cr too many). I've updated the mod in the first post.
LiDroid 15 Toggle mod!
De-Odex ROM's Only. If used on stock delete the SystemUI.odex in /system/app/
THis is for the 4.1.1 base. Not sure how it will work on any other!
Version 2 is the same with the exception of two changes...
No Carrier Label
Standard HSPA Icons! No AT&T Fake 4G Icons!
Seemingly these go Hand and Hand. No carrier label = No Fake 4G Icons!

Thats because AT&T has it set up like that. In Canada you have a differnt carrier therefor if you apply an AT&T mod to your ROM it will have AT&T affects to it.
If you have the original ROM from your carrier I can use that to make modficaitions to remove it fopr everyone.
Do you have it or know where I can find it?
Can you Nandorid back and do a system dump if I walk you through the steps?
I will be happy to do it for everyone but I need the files for your device to do it.

You like that huh? When I was doing ROMS for the One XL people in Canada and Austraila hated the 4G Icon and people in the US said they must have it.
Was such a pain to make everyone happy!
But yeah, let me know if you go back to stock rooted via restore and send me a PM and I will show you how to get what I need.
Also, do you have access to upload large files? These files are going to be pretty big.
If nto I can get you access to my server to upload them. But yeah, that would be great if you do a system dump. That will help EVERYONE!
What carrier are you on? Rogers?

Yeah, as long as you do a full restore of /system and /boot then I can walk you through dumping it and uploading it.
From there, I can make it into a stock rooted ROM for everyone on Rogers like I did for my own AT&T and i can also comapre the differences in the status bar and the framework files.
These things are normally in the services and svc.jar files but eitherway, I will find it and put up a new version for either.

Are you running a de-odex ROM? Because the SysUI is De-Odex and you would need to delete the SystemUI.ODEX for this to work on full stock root.

Make a back up and then you will need to delete SystemUI.ODEX in the /system/app folder. If not you will get F/C.

CM10.1 is here for the LS970, aka the Sprint LG Optimus G.
This is a source build rom, which includes all the latest changes from cm and codefirex with respect to kernel.
While the efs issues have not been solved, our custom ril class seems to have helped. The rom by default backups up on first flash to /sdcard/EFS_BACKUPS/ because I know some of you won't make efs backups before flashing.
Instructions
You must use lgnpst to flash the jb bin. You need the jb tot to get new rpm/tz
If the rom doesn't boot, it's cause you didn't lgnpst the jb bin!
Lgnpst is currently the safest way to update your tz and rpm partitions, we are looking into other methods, but in the process to get things to you the fastest that is what must be done for now. Flashable zip might come once we can make it so partitions can be verified after flashing. A bad rpm/tz flash is a hard brick like a bad sbl flash, so lgnpst is the way to go for now.
Download cm-10.1, and gapps. Put them on your sdcard, reboot to recovery. Flash, and enjoy!
The current version is:
20130523
The latest will be avaliable at:
http://downloads.codefi.re/shelnutt2/optimusg/sprint/cm10_1/

Need to update your RPM/TZ?
Instead of flashing a 1GB+ .bin file for lgnpst... try a TeenyBin
TeenyBin is currently the safest, fastest and easiest way to flash RPM/TZ... it also safely flashes the SBL stack.
GPS Not Working?
Always check recent posts at the end of this thread to see if a current build has any current issues. If GPS is working for most people but not you... try flashing back to an LG-based rom... something stock is perfect(stock zvb deodex for example). Boot into LG-based rom and disable wifi/mobile networks in GPS settings.. only have GPS Sat checked. Go outside and try to get a lock. You could also try ##GPSCLRX# (phone dialer code) or something like GPS Status to reset your GPS data. After getting a successful GPS lock on the LG-based rom.. power off... reboot into recovery and reflash the rom and gapps zip... wipe data. Reboot when finished.. cross fingers and hope for the best.
MMS Not Working?
MMS confirmed working for a few in IRC.. send receive should work now if you're lucky and can follow directions.
1. Delete telephony.db located at /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db ...Open ES File Explorer > Press the menu button > Settings > Scroll to the bottom > Make sure "Root Explorer" is checked > Click "OK" > navigate to the directory starting from "/" (you could prob do this with the CM file explorer too)
2. Delete messaging Data...From home screen > Press menu button > Manage Apps > "All" tab > Find Messaging > Press "Clear data" button
3. Reboot. Clear cache if you want.
Not sure if NFC is working?
You don't need NFC tags or Google Wallet to check. Just go to the NFC settings... are you able to check/uncheck the NFC option? If no, NFC is "broken"
Awesome finally some cm to try.
This is so awesome/frustrating having so many great ROMs! I can't decide!

That first thread is the most hilarious conversation ever.
Edit: so, if I get it correctly, eherpderp is the software that makes for a smooth 3g to lte transition, which our phones suck at doing anyway.

correct.. it lets u keep same IP if I'm not mistaken... and takes care of the 3g/lte handoff stuffs.
not having proper working eHRPD on this rom currently isnt end of world.. can still use normal EVDO Rev A 3G... and can still use 4G... :good:
There are some cases where the phone stick to eHRPD only and at that point data seems to not work at all. To fix that.. you can toggle "CDMA" rather than CDMA/LTE in the network settings. Once eHRPD is fixed.. no one will have to worry about any of that.

So I guess now that we have an AOSP base, I can try my hand at porting some roms over, if I remember correctly this is a nexus 4 base, is that right?
Ugh... This is one reason I disliked wimax on my evo3d. I never used it because I'd be on wimax trying to log into something, and it bump me to 3g and change my ip. But yeah, not the end of the world. At work, I'm in and out of a cave several times a shift, so having to toggle data every time I leave is normal everyday life to me.

I have a few other bugs I have noticed just to point out so we don't have 100 threads reporting it.
1. LED lights flash wrong color when charging
2. USB tethering doesn't work (might be only for MacBooks, can someone else test.
3. auto brightness doesn't adjust at all.
4. I need some other people to test this one, when making a call it says call ended but it still dials, but the timer for the call does not start.
Again, these are not complaints, but I think it would be useful to gather all bug reports in one place.

TY shell, I love you full homo! Dlin this now.
backed up my EFS already and never use camera so WOOOOOO
So here are the steps I follow to use the Sprint LG G2 (ls980) with any rom on Tmobile or AT&T in the US
*This thread is specifically for the LS980. Some of the information might apply to other phones, but I can't say for sure.
***Caveats of using this phone Tmobile or AT&T:
-LTE doesn't work. Missing lte bands. Highest we get is hspa+.
-Haven't tested Custom Kernels
-instead of 4g or LTE logo, it says gsm all of the time (paid app that will safely change icons without system crashes linked below)
-Had to use 3rd party app to change radio and apn settings (see below)
-Wifi on stock 4.4.2 didn't turn on twice in the last 2 weeks when coming from a wakeup. Had to reboot to fix.
Again, I did not do any work. I have only compiled this information from various forums. Most of this work comes from cloudyfa, the find from pvinodnayak, the unlock from ysabxe and countless members in the sprint unlock forum and the old sprint build prop forum before the unlock was released. I have just compiled information. Thank op's for their work.
There are multiple ways to use the Sprint LS980 on Tmobile or AT&T. Before we get into them, please do the following:
- root phone with ioroot http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2522346
- use autorec to install TWRP
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2715496
*If you notice now that when you screen goes to sleep, and when you try to activate the screen it shows a whole bunch of white lines, boot into recovery and install the G2PanelSwap. [/url]http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2792844[/url]
There are 2 ways to accomplish using our phone. (be sure to scroll down to the bottom to see the 2nd way. You might want to to this instead of the first way.)
1st Way - Use your phone on Stock Sprint Software
***If you are already on the ZVC firmware, people have noted problems using the following instructions..There are constant system crashes. It is recommended to restore back to an earlier version, make the changes below, then take the ota upgrade. You can go back to stock by following this guide.
LG G2 Stock Firmware (Go Back to Stock) - xda-developers
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
If you prefer to stay on ZVC, please follow jsergio123's guide found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52915223&postcount=814
1-setup phone and Download root browser
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.root.browserfree
and a rar extractor.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rarlab.rar
2-Download the ls980simfinalunlock.rar
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2655133
3-extract the rar and copy the carrier contents and use root.explorer to over write the files in the root carrier folder.
4- Download Rom toolbox lite
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.liberty.toolbox
and use it to Update the build.prop (reboot between each. You can turn on airplane mode in the meantime to stop the system ui from crashing)
ro.carrier=spr
ro.build.target_operator=spr
persist.service.crash.enable=1
Found from this post.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49945052
*After trying numerous build.prop edits, I have found that they all cause system crashes. Please only use the ones listed above. If you hate the GSM icon, I have found a way to change it. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.ptoti.g2_tweaksbox . Install it, and then buy the premium pack for $1. (cmon its only a buck.) After you unlock all features, Click on Theme Tweaks -> and make sure Enable Theme MOD is selected. Then click on Status bar. Then make sure Enable Status Bar Mod is On. Then scroll down "Change status bar's icon set" You can choose through different icons from different carriers. I prefer the Tmobile one. They will take affect after reboot.

5-Use Radio Switcher to check and set what radio to use. I use LTE\GSM\WCDMA
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.snclabs.radioswitcher
6-Use Tweakker MMS APN app to set APN
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tweakker
*Note - Some users get force closes when trying to make a phone call. For some reason, you need to add a number 1 to your contact before you call
If you want to fix this manually, Follow the following fix found by jsergio123)
*To fix the issue of the com.android.phone process crashing when you don't dial a 1 in front of the number edit the /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db file with a SQLlite editor and change in the "system" table "assist_dial" and "assist_dial_init_db_check" to "0". If you don't see those 2 rows then you can add them. Fix permissions, wipe cache and reboot.
Another workaround is that I have found an app that will automatically add 1's to every one of your contacts.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.maplekeycompany.apps.numberfixer
Install it and open it -> click Add area/country code -> change the dropdown to 10 and hit ok -> and in the area code, erase the area code part leaving just the number 1 -> Fix all. It will prompt you for how many numbers it will add the number 1 to all contacts.
2nd Way - Flash a rom
After you have Rooted and Flashed and possibly the G2Panelswap , you may want to consider installing a rom that works out of the box. It is much easier.
Here is a list of roms that work out of the box that I have personally tested. I know there are more.
***Update***
In all of cloudyfa's latest rom builds they do not work out of the box. I had to install the rom without my sim card in. Then download and install rom toolbox lite (see step 4 above) and change ro.carrier to spr (make sure its lowercase.)
I then turned off my phone, put in my sim card, installed radio switcher (link in step 5 above) and chose WCDMA preferred. Everything worked after that.
Cloudystock =stock http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2661866
Cloudyflex =LG flex port http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2618864
Cloudy pro II = Optimus pro port http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2680745
CloudyG3 =G3 port http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2783192
Let me know in the forum what other roms you find that work out of the box and I will link them here. Please remember that unless a rom specifically states it works for AT&T or Tmobile, or is a general rom that is 1 rom made for different versions of the phone, than it most likely won't work. There are lots of roms to look through in the G2 development section as well. http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/development
Very interesting. . I struggle to do many of these and after reading thru your I find it so easy. . Thanks for your post. .

I already followed the "Permanent SI Unlock for LS980 (OTA, APN) JB 4.2.2, KK 4.4.2" thread, so I did the following extra steps "To make APNs stick automatically:", is this fine?

Do you have to go through the whole unlocking process for those apps to work? It says its incompatible with my phone but I haven't tried unlocking yet so just want to be sure. Also is this just for GSM usage or would I be able to switch back and forth? I want to test it out before I decide to actually cancel with sprint and go with tmobile. My friend is letting me hold on to an extra tmobile sim so planning to try it with that.
Sprint blocks gsm in the US. You have to do steps 6 and 7 to have gsm unlocked. That is why it is failing for you. Once it's unlocked, you can still use sprint

I didn't ever see those steps in the op. They would probably help. But at any rate, yes. Each thread brought us one step closer to using this phone in the US. I kept trying over and over what step to do in what order to get it to work, and then wrote this guide. The way to listed in the op of permanently unlock is a great way to do it, I just thought dropping the folder in is easier.
Sprint blocks gsm everywhere, unless you get it unlocked through them. The permanent unlock let's us bypass that restriction and lets us use gsm, but still doesn't bypass sprints measures to block gsm in the US. The build prop changes do that. Everything else listed is just the tools I used to change everything.
Sent from my LG-LS980 using Tapatalk
When switching Roms, you might need to make the build. Prop changed again, but you shouldn't ever have to do the unlock again. Also, op updated with possible new changes to get rid of the gsm icon and shows H for HSPA . Its working well so far.

You shouldn't be creating a new folder. You should be finding the already existing carrier folder, and overwriting its contents.

Right, but the issue is that Omnirom does not have a carrier folder.
Don't know what to tell you. You can try just the build. Prop mods starting on step 8. People have had success with asop based Roms. I have only used stock based Roms. Also, again this question would be more for the permanent unlock forum linked above.

Now for legal junk
Code:
Its your device
you choose what you do with it
if your phone explodes after flashing this, or melts, not our (or Kevins) fault. K?
Now for current bugs
Personally, I feel it can be used as a daily driver
Heat issue (Fixed soon no ETA's) ((Or run start Thermald in terminal emulator))
Charging slow issue (Will be fixed with Heat)
Service may take some tweaking to work on sprint (Flash Release3 first, add your carrier in carrier settings, then flash latest)
Random Device Update FC (rename /system/app/OmaDmclient.apk to OmaDmclient.apk.bak thanks @dwielunski)
No SD Card error (go to corresponding app in /sdcard/android/data and delete the folder)
NFC isnt working
Camera is a bit wonky
DOWNLOAD
DOWNLOAD L HERE
Please, before you report bootloop, give it at least 20 minutes to boot.
Enjoy!

OMG you guys figured that out! Amazing. I was wondering about the carrier part. I went from release two then clean flashed 8-11. Never tried any in between.
And @dwielunski seriously, tons of thanks for figuring out the update FCs. I tried renaming and deleting all kinds of apks and lines in some update xml's and whatnot. The fact that you figured that out and got them to stop is great. Thanks again to @dwielunski @ThatKawaiiGuy @Kevinjoa.
Has anyone else tried this?

Seems like it would help.
I am very pleased to be rid of the update device FC! Also this may be my first actual meaningful contribution on xda so there's a milestone.
I saw the note about the NFC service. I don't use Titanium, but I downloaded an app from the Play Store called Disable Service and used that to disable "Nfc service". I assume it's the same thing? (Not entirely clear on what the issue is with NFC.)
For 3G data, I think have a more sensible fix that doesn't require flashing multiple versions of the ROM. If you are getting LTE but not 3G, you probably need to add "default" to the the plain vanilla Sprint APN. I will post a guide on how to do this with screenshots in a minute.

I saw the note about the NFC service. I don't use Titanium, but I downloaded an app from the Play Store called Disable Service and used that to disable "Nfc service". I assume it's the same thing? (Not entirely clear on what the issue is with NFC.)
For 3G data, I think have a more sensible fix that doesn't require flashing multiple versions of the ROM. If you are getting LTE but not 3G, you probably need to add "default" to the the plain vanilla Sprint APN. I will post a guide on how to do this with screenshots in a minute.

I agree since when booting release 3 for the first time there is no mobile network because it tries for global. I have no type of service at boot and have a feeling that if I could get through setup it would say I have no prl, min, meid information listed. I saw this problem with release 2 but was able to get through setup using wifi. I cannot do that at work. Also, once past that part I still could get nothing for data. I seriously think it is due to having EvDo and not eHRPD in this area.
On the note of NFC, I am thinking it can be removed or renamed much like the oma file. I found nfcnci.apk and renamed it to bak, also there is an nfc_nci.mako.so file here \system\lib\hw so maybe that can be removed or edited even. I don't know how NFC polls things but maybe those files are useful. I don't think using an extra app is useful all the time.
I tried this again while at work but still had nothing at boot on rel3 it sets the network to sim mode or something.
All right. You only need one APN. (Others are for ota updates which we don't want, and separating eHRPD & LTE appears to create problems with handoff.) See screenshots for how it should look.
Now, to edit the APNs:
1) am start -n com.android.settings/com.android.settings.ApnSettings from terminal emulator; or
2) download an app from the play store like quickshortcutmaker or various APN editor apps (can't tell you which will work though).
We could make a flashable zip out of it, or build into the ROM. Until then, for those trying to activate the ROM over 3G, maybe use a tool like aromafm to edit/swap out the APN XML file after flashing but before first boot.

Do you have or can you share the apn config file after you edited it? Keep in mind that if you give only one apn and it is for sprint then this is no longer a gee rom, that's why it shouldn't be included in the rom. Just my 2 cents. but if you can share the xml then us here in the sprint section can replace it before flashing.
Also, whatever you do, do not rename the nfcnci.apk because you will no longer have access to settings for the phone.
EDIT: However, your idea works. I am using 3G, I sent a pic and went on chrome with it. I have EvDo rev a not eHRPD and can confirm it works. You're on a roll today.

Yes, it would be bad if we were deleting all the other carriers' APNs. But editing the APNs within system settings as I described does not alter or delete anything from the APN xml files in /system/etc/, it sits on top of those somehow. And also, though I didn't show this, the only APNs I am proposing to remove are unnecessary Sprint APNs (not other carriers). I am experimenting with editing apns-conf.xml in order to try to get it up and running from first boot and I will post the edited xml if it works.

I see. I thought you meant to place only one APN in the ROM file. But what I did was use APN manager and add the information you provided as a new APN. Thanks for the settings info BTW.
Does anybody know if "start thermald" in any spot of android terminal emulator is OK or do I need special permissions or to be in a certain folder. I typed that and pressed enter but nothing happened visually.
No luck on incorporating the APN into the XML file. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Try again tomorrow.
On the bright side, I realized you can fire up the APN settings menu over ADB, so you can complete the setup without WiFi or LTE...if you have access to a computer with the Android SDK installed.
Is the included kernel the only one we can use? I can't live without s2w2 (my power button is almost unresponsive at this point....)
sorry for the question...how did you get working data and wifi? we are porting the L for htc one (here http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc...-android-l-developer-preview-htc-one-t2812816) but even if the libril-qc-qmi-1.so is working we have unknown baseband and so no sim reading...any help? ^^
Has anyone been able to set a text alert other than the default hangouts alert? I tried and when it is anything other than default I don't get anything. I tried a bunch. I even tried another sms app and tried disabling and enabling notifications but I still get no alert.
Here is what I tried:
1) changing default = no notification sound
2) using different SMS app, no changes to settings of hangouts = no notification sound
3) disabling notifications in hangouts and still using other app = no notification sound

I have tested with a lot of clean flashes and replacing apns-conf.xml before first boot and it is totally inconsistent as to whether I get data or not. Yesterday I got LTE on a clean flash of release11 with no changes, today I do not. So I am sticking with the manual edit of the APNs in system settings after boot as the recommendation to get data working.
Now, onto MMS. Anyone having success with MMS send or receive? If you do please post your APNs. Again, you can view these by running in terminal "am start -n com.android.settings/com.android.settings.ApnSettings". There are also APNs viewable within Hangouts that might help.

I have sent a few using whatever is defaulted in hangouts and by adding the information you provided to my system and setting as default (active). But I used an apn manager to do it.
I haven't had anyone send ME an mms yet so I'm not sure. I will ask someone to and report back.

This device is literally the same as N4, so not as much work is needed to port things from them

I'm not sure, I'd run L to test but it screws up my phone
I too can send MMS but cannot download when I receive it.

Here's a screenshot of my APN through hangouts.

Mine sits and then eventually fails. It took quite some time to even receive the message that there is one to download but once it got to my phone and I chose download it wouldn't.
I chalked it up to having bad reception, but now that I am not the only one it could be setting/rom related.
On another note, on release 3 I have a baseband, but when I flash 11 over it the baseband goes away and I get tons of FCs and the appearance of random UI restarts. It flashes and doesn't want to load the notification bar.
