I am on stock TW but I try to go to aosp such as cm10.1 or bean stalk and my mms no longer works. My texting, calling, and data work though

Check your APN's. Mine got messed up when I flashed an AOSP ROM that had been ported over to sprint. Never really worked right.
So start there maybe that'll be the quickest and easiest fix???
Hope that helps

Voice command..and say open APN's and see if they're right

I will try this also is there any TW4.2.2 from you would recommend. Not trying to start world war 3 nor doubting or asking for favorites more or less opinion.
Edit:
Tried the "open apn" and it just takes me to my call log..
Sent from my SPH-D710VMUB using xda premium

I had to be in the aosp ROM to work the apns.
And I've found diff people like diff things

I flashed bean stalk from and there was no "voice command" app also if j can direct me to a stock 4.2.2 with no themed apps, and light weight. I have searched but no luck

Don't think we have a "stock" 4.2 2.
Lightest AOSP I've seen is Slim Bean I think

There are no 4.2.2 ports for TW that I'm aware of. And WFTN has voice dialer. Most CM and AOSP roms that I've ran have it.

Okay. I have tried the cm10.1 wild for the night build. Wiped everything besides sdcard. Flashed ics modem FJ12 flashed 4.2.2 gapps. And still no mms, I can send text, call, and use data.. I also went back to stock updated my profile and prl then flashed wild for the night again and still no luck..

WFTN CM10.1 (and I think most AOSP ROM's) work only with ICS (and below) Modems, such as FL24 or older. I don't remember seeing FJ12 modem. Check the rwilco12's Modems thread in Development section. To get your MMS working with another carrier on AOSP, the easiest way I found is getting an alternate SMS app (Textra and GoSMS are the two I've tried) and changing the MMSC within the apps settings to the one provided by your carrier and rebooting the phone afterwards.

I ended up flashing beanstalk ROM and then editing my apn-confg.XML file to only VM then rebooted and BAM working MMS

[Q] Does Instagram work on any ICS-based ROM yet?

I've tried many ROMs and noticed Instagram didn't work in any of them, so I went back to stock. I kinda just got tired of flashing ****.
Basically, my question is... Does Instagram work on any of the new 4-19-2012 ICS builds? I tried every other ROM before that date, I think.
I'm using yaldek ics and instagram works fine

I'm using NexusMod ICS Zero and it's working. The only thing is I notice the Camera isn't taking as good of pictures as on GB ROMS. I may try another ICS ROM. The picture quality is not just with Instagram but with any camera app. Including the stock.

Browsing pictures and commenting is fine. But... You can apply filter and post pictures without your phone having a seizure, freezing, or rebooting?
Last i checked it wasn't...so perhaps you're lucky.
I haven't found an ICS rom based off any of the leaks that Instagram works with yet. I would wait for the OFFICIAL official release of ICS and then go from there...
Don't really feel like scrolling thru every ics thread. But does any ics rom run instagram flawlessly now?

Jelly bean question

Hey guys this is my first post here but been browsing on xda for a long time. I have a question. I am rooted with black bean ROM android 4.1.1 on a evo 4g flashed to cricket. I know its a mouth full. Anyways on my last ROM which was classic I had to change my apn settings to be able to get MMS messages. I went to use apn manager and it says its not compatible with jelly bean android version 4.0 and above. How can I change my APN settings on this ROM/ software version. Thanks for all the help in advanced and keep up the great work devs

Ok so I tried that this morning and the APN I create will not stay. It disappears after I hit save....... kinda lost. I read that you can not write a new APN if the MCC and MNC in the build.prop folder do not match. I checked my build.prop folder and didn't find anything of those codes even in numeric form. Is there something I'm missing here

Ask shagnasty himself. I'm sure he'd be willing to help. He's a great guy and a good friend of mine.
Awesome sounds like a plan. Will send him a pm in the morning. Is there any other kernels that anyone knows about to run with these ROMs. I've noticed that the keyboard and some of the apps are laggy. Or is it just because these ROMs are in early dev stages? I'm still a little behind the times with kernels. Don't fully understand them yet

[Guide] Epic 4g touch metropcs mms fix

This to fix mms messaging on metropcs flashed epic 4g touch your most already be flashed to metropcs with working internet and most have custom recovery simple boot into recovery and flash the zip and reboot. mms should work from first boot after flashing zip it will also still work after wiping data if you ever need to, if you flash a new rom you will have to redo the fix.Also wana add mms doesnt work with wifi on on gingerbread. If your on el29 this should disable system updates if after booting you get the system update notification click on click reboot and install it will fail hold the power button until it reboots it will boott into recovery wipe cache and reboot it shouldnt come back,the ics fix I have tested on ff18 and fi03 but should work for others enjoy
Edit: I was ask to add some detsils 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. The will also edit the build.prop, changing ro.cdma.home.operator.numeric=310120 to ro.cdma.home.operator.numeric=310027 this is done using uncorupted's build.prop editor script.
EDIT: As skeletor916 has pointed out the ics fix seems to have an issue with txt not coming thru if u have this problem install a third party message app such as go sms and it should fix the issue sorry i will try to fix this
Thanks to uncorupted for the build.prop editor script

Amazing! Im on "TEAM REJECTZ REJECTED CRACK STOCKv1.3b [fI03]" Rom on Metro PCS. Ive been looking for a MMS Fix for weeks! Your ICS fix zip worked perfect! I can now send and receive MMS. Seems to work on 3G or Wifi! It was so simple, all I had to do was flash it in recovery. Many Many Thanks.
Thanks!
I'm on The Blu Kuban ICS rom with MetroPCS and was fiddling with all of the fixes/settings I saw previously and none of them really worked. And when I did get it to work, I would always forget exactly what I did and in what order, the APN settings, etc etc etc. Interestingly, when I flashed your ICS fix I could send/receive MMS/picture messages but regular texts weren't working. Installed GO SMS because I was going to use it anyways, and both texts and picture messages started coming through. Kind of odd.
Either way, I'm going to try it on a new/different rom (NEED that volume rocker to change tracks ability) and I'll let you know.... Thanks.
Been on ICS for months spoiled myself and went jellybean got it running good now think you can make one to work for cm10? That would be very cool or maybe would ICS fix work? I've been following you for a long time you kinda disappeared for a bit glad to see you fixing us metro people up again huge thanks since you've been the only one I've seen here that wants to do anything for metro.

Sprint G Nexus MMS?

I been trying to figure this out for ever to no avail. Why when on stock 4.2.1 I can send and receive mms just fine using lte/cdma network with the stock messaging app but not on any of the custom roms? It works just fine with 3rd party apps though. I would really appreciate if someone could help me get this sorted so I can once again enjoy custom roms. Thanks

I used to have the same issue but with some of the new 4.2.2 and even 4.2.1 based roms it works. I have been using sourcery for quite a while now and haven't had any mms issues over the last couple of builds. Definitely worth checking out and you rarely see anybody with mms issues in the thread.

when you flash it be sure you wipe dalvik, cache, factory reset, system, then delete android folder before flashing so you have a completely clean install. let market restore then reboot and then try your mms.
I can delete android folder from recovery? Also I always wipe dalvik, cache and factory reset but never system. Won't I lose all my backups and stuff if I do system?

if you are using twrp you can delete it via the file explorere. system just wipes the os not storage. whatever you do dont delete storage/sd then you will not be able to do anything.

For those having issues, have you guys fully ported your Sprint number to Google Voice? Thinking this may be causing the problem. I managed to get MMS received by unchecking the "auto receive" option. Still can't send though. This is frustrating.

Apn fix...

I'm running Beanstalk ROM, latest build, I believe it's 4.4.4.050 with BMS kernel, and lost data connection after clean install of this Rom on T-Mobile SG3 (dtle).

Try replacing your apns-conf.xml with this one. Don't know if it'll work on that rom, but I don't see why it wouldn't. Rename old one in case you need to revert.

I believe Beanstalk uses Cyanogenmod code, and their latest build had a broken radio.. No data, no phone signal..
I am using Carbon at the moment at their 9-07 build had a broken radio, no data no phone..
Try reverting to an older version, that should clear your problem
Yeah I reverted to an older version and got data connection back... Thanks... It was boggling the heck out of me... Lol
