Hi folks,
I've tried a few ROMs recently and I am having trouble sending MMS's. The only ROM I've found MMS works is Leedroid.
Can anybody help me work out what is wrong please? Thanks
Have you looked at the APNs to make sure they are correct ?
I had similar MMS issues with T-mob. I checked the APN settings and all was good.
I eventually found that using a messaging app like Chomp would not send MMS yet the stock messaging app would!
Therefore I now use chomp for sms and the stock messenger for MMS!
Try it out and let us know if that works
Changing the MMS server setting on Sense is pretty easy and straight forward but I've yet to figure out how to get it working on AOSP.
I've searched everywhere and tried every setting available and I still can only receive pictures but not send them. I've tried editing the APN's through the voice command, I've tried apps from the market and no matter what settings I try, I can't send a MMS message.
Has anyone been able to figure out how to do this without using a 3rd part SMS app?
people have claimed to of been able to get it working with apn restoring but I've only been able to get it working with go messenger
they claimed if you backed up the apn settings in a Sense ROM and restored that same backup in an AOSP ROM the default messanging client would work with mms, I never got it to work.
Is anyone was able to run ICS on Boost Mobile with working MMS and SMS messages?
The issue is MMS is not sending because of wrong APN and if SMS longer that 160 characters it is also not sending.
I've tried many different roms, tried use APN backup and restore program (as a system app in ics with titanium backup conversion), tried using voice dialer with "open A P N" phrase and setting up right apn for boost mobile but still have no luck!
The only way i can use mms and sms on ics - is using Go SMS Pro, which i personally don't like at all! So this is not a way out for me, so please don't suggest me use Go SMS Pro instead of original app.
Right now I'm running on Fresh (it's sense) Rom and installed espt app to change mms setting and everything works great, but i want to use ics since there is a nice stable MIUI ics rom available.
Is anyone know how to fix apn and get working mms - let me know. Thanks in advance
I have never been able to get the default messenger to work 100%.
I use GoSMS with custom APN settings.
Url: http://mm.myboostmobile.com
Port: 80
Sorry, its the only way that works for me. I don't really like GoSMS either.
What is we gonna create flashing zip file with correct APN and will flash it from the recovery? Did anyone know where does ICS keep original apn file, which system use for mms settings?
Altering APNs besides VIA GoSMS has never worked for me with AOSP or ICS
I've even used other Boost users APNs that worked for them, that never worked for me VIA APN backup and restore
idk, I use Sense and the default messenger, it works.
Is anyone else got their recommendation?
I still got a hope that there is a way to fix that problem.

There are two people (at least) that I can't send text messages to. One is on AT&T and one is on Sprint so their carrier isn't the issue. And it doesn't matter which sms app I use.
When I use Chomp I get this result: "Unfortunately, chomp SMS has stopped."
When I use the stock messaging app I get this result: "Unfortunately, Messaging has stopped."
There is no existing thread with these people and their cell phone numbers are valid. When they send me texts everything looks normal on their end but I don't get the message.
I am bone dry stock.
Any ideas? This is very annoying and I probably will have the same problem with other people, I just haven't discovered it yet.
I've never heard of this issue before

I don't think so. How do I check? When I long press their names in the contact list I see an option to "add to reject list" which suggests they aren't blocked. How else can I check?
I don't think I've blocked anyone. Is there a way to check everyone I've blocked? And on a related note, what happens when I add someone to the reject list? If they call me will they go straight to voicemail or what?

Are you opposed to rooting and trying out a ROM? I honestly don't know what's going on, but if it's crashing your sms programs, it sounds to me somehow software or settings related (but I've never seen anything that could do that). Since it's most-likely software related, I'd bet a fresh install would solve it.
But that being said, it's a really bizarre thing to have happened.
I'd try erasing the problem contacts and re-adding them before going too far into it. Very odd problem though, thats for sure!
It does not sound like you have anyone Blocked / Rejected. Did you install any apps before the issue started?

Honestly, I have never heard of this before. Usually, I would never want to bother sprint tech, but I would go show them and see what they think. That is very odd. Have you tried a factory reset? (Backup everything first)

Look it up.
So I'm in a major bind. I realized that the problem was for anyone who I didn't already have a sms thread with. If I send/receive text messages with someone that has an existing thread, it works fine. If they don't have a thread send/receive text fails as I described.
I tried uninstalling Chomp SMS and that didn't help. So I figured there might be some corruption in my text message store so I backed up my sms & mms and then deleted everything. Now I can't send/receive text messages from ANYONE and when I try to restore my text messages it fails. I backed up with two different apps to be safe and they both failed.
At this point it seems like the only option is a factory reset. Does anyone have another suggestion to fix this?
Before doing a factory reset I'd like to back everything up but I'm not rooted yet and to make matters worse I'm on vacation with my Mac rather than my Windows laptop -- so rooting is not possible. I don't want to do a factory reset and lose everything but I can't be away for this many days without the capability to send/receive text messages. Especially since people who are texting me have no idea I'm not getting their texts. FML
Turn on Mobile Data. Update Profile & PRL, Turn off your mobile data.
Backup export your contacts list. should be like a
Contacts.VCF file.
And backup your SMS messages if possible
Go into applications / All Applications > Wipe Data for both messaging apps + Wipe Contacts list.
Turn off your sync for contacts.
Reboot your device.
Open up both messaging apps and tweak / change what ever you need in the settings for both applications.
Turn on your data and reset LTE/CMDA CMDA/EVDO back and forth once
Reboot your phone.
Import your contacts list.
Re-sync your contacts.
Then try messaging them.
If that doesn't work then I have no clue what'll help with your issue being non-rooted.

I tried this, it didn't work.
Now I have another problem. When I try to sync my contacts, after restoring them from the backup, I'm getting an error. The error says "Sync is currently experiencing problems.It will be back shortly." Maybe it will be back shortly but in my experience with a similar problem with calendar syncing a couple years back, this is not so easy to fix.
Any suggestions?
Your firmware and base is updated to MD4 right?
EDIT:
Have you tried Go SMS Pro Using this method?
Download from Google play
Open application and go to settings
Click Advanced Tab.
Click MMS Settings
Checkmark Fill APN Configuration Manually.
Code:
MMSC
http://mms.sprintpcs.com
MMS Proxy
68.28.31.7
MMS Port
80
Force Close application, and then reboot it, and now try sending something SMS or MMS.
Yes, I'm on MD4.
I actually think MD4 may have something to do with this. The first time I noticed the problem was right around the time I installed MD4. It was within a day, either right before or right after. For some reason Sprint pushed MD4 to may waaaaay after everyone else got it which is why I just recently got it.
I tried your Go SMS Pro technique but got not joy. The stock messaging app still crashes. Go SMS doesn't crash when I send messages but nothing is actually sent. And whenever someone sends me text messages I still don't get them.
Currently running Viper 1.21 but I've had this issue on stock VZW flash, LeeDroid, & Viper - Textra fails to send texts as soon as send button is hit. Un&Reinstall don't fix anything, obviously flashing a new ROM doesn't fix anything, changing from Global to LTE/CDMA doesn't fix anything. I don't have issues with any other messaging app sending messages, but I definitely prefer Textra and would love to see it work. I've tried changing just about every setting in the app related to messaging.
Has anyone else run into an issue with this app and have any fixes?
