Hey guys, I just got my phone back from Samsung from being repaired. I update profile and PRL, then flashed to Ktoonsez & whoever's AOKP ROM that I was running before it broke. I then installed the KT747 kernel and everything else I use for my phone.
However, even though I can receive MMS/group messages/everything, when I try to send a group message, picture mail, etc. it says sending and never sends, no matter the connection.
Any ideas on what to do? I used to not be able to send when on wifi only, which honestly I don't care about, but now I can't send on anything.

Anyone else experiencing this??? I tried to get in touch with Sprint but they can't figure it out. I even flashed to bare bone stock MD4 and it still wouldn't work.

I posted thise in the Fixed MMS thread:
"Boy am I glad we have the ability to edit these things ourselves!
I fixed my issue by going into the APN settings menu, only accessible on my ROM apparently through Nova's activitie's widgets, and then creating a new one myself with all the correct settings. The only difference when looking at the "APN2 LTE internet" and "Sprint" (my custom) ones are the names and the Authentication Type. I set the authentication type to PAP or CHAP on mine, which doesn't seem to be set on any of the four already there before creating mine.
To users with MMS still not working: try setting Authentication type to PAP or CHAP in APN settings."

I searched the CM7 thread, but MMS and issue are such vague queries that I was unable to find anything pertaining to my issue.
I can receive MMS fine, but I cannot send at all. I choose the pic I want to send and hit send, and it just disappears. Doesn't show up in the thread of messages. Then when I back out of it, I see the last message I sent that person is (no subject) like it was my pic, but when I go into the thread it is not sent. But it shows up with the pic again like I never sent it. It saves it as a draft. Any time I hit send it does the same thing over and over. I can't even get the pic to delete from drafts. The only way is to delete the whole thread.
I have changed my number in the call settings to show with a +509251xxxx, no dashes or anything. Is there something else I am missing? I have tried several different CM7 builds and all have the same problem.
bump - really? Nothin guys?
Edit: reflashed CM7 and only restored apps+data, no system data and problem was resolved. I assumed since my system data was from a prior CM7 version that it would be no problem, apparently I was wrong. Thank me for all the help
I have the same issue. It doesn't disappear for me, but it just stays there wit the spinning circle thing. It never sends and after a couple of minutes, it says I cannot send the MMS.
Is there a solution without reflashing?
same problem.mine says mms is too large
I have the opposite issue. I've been completely unable to pin down the issue. I can MMS myself pictures and can MMS them to my email, but I cannot receive them. I used to receive them just fine, but now it's an issue.
I've confirmed that I can't receive them from iPhones, BlackBerries, and other Android phones.
I've checked my APN and know it works. I can access Mobile Data.
I've tried third party apps for messaging and that doesn't help.
I've spoofed as an iPhone, BlackBerry, and Custom (Blank) Agent without any results.
I've ensured my phone number in system settings doesn't have any symbols.
Anyone fix this issue?

Uhh, yeah that sucks: I have absolutely no idea, im on GingerVill 1.5 and it works fine, I also flashed sense, regular cm7, miui, and I never had a problem with it..
Try to download handscent or go sms and try that? I doubt that will work but give it a try!

I've got a similar issue -
Using CM7 7.0.3's Mms.apk my phone processes sms no problem, however it will not process mms - send or receive.
Go SMS Pro however will let me SEND picture messages - and Its going through my carrier because in an email to myself it was full of their crap - Sent to you from a Koodo Mobile Customer!
Unfortunately I cannot receive mms; Go SMS implies that it relies on the Mms.apk to forward notifications.
Considering that the Mms.apk isn't syncing with the mmsc properly, I'm assuming the problem lies there. I've even gone so far as to go to one of the phone kiosks and ask to play with their new Nexus S (*drool*) and ripped the apns off of it and uploaded their apn directly to my phone. Still, no dice.
Any suggestions anyone?
I've been having the same problems. Tried lots of things. I was also using Go SMS pro, and thought that was the issue. Tried fooling around with apn, user agent and MMS size etc... Nothing worked except the simple fix:
What I had to do to make it work was to have my mobile network on -- (which I almost always have off from the notification switches). Once it was turned on, it still didn't kick over because I was connected to wifi. So I had to manually disable wifi and then resend the message. It worked fine then.
So:
Turn off wifi
turn on mobile / 3g
resend message
Seems like a simple bug that's keeping the mobile network from kicking on.
Hello dear friends. I have been trying to figure this out for a few days now and nothing has worked. I'm on CREDO service, which is on Sprint network. I have been unable to send MMS (all other data usage is normal) since I flashed to ICS from my original out-of-box stock ROM. I have since gone to CM9, nothing changed. I have tried Sprint's APNs, Credo's APNs, etc. I have even tried deleting all APNs with APNBackupAndRestore... the result was that I could still access internet and send SMS. Currently I'm on Gingerbread EK02. There has been no difference between stock messaging app and handcent.
This whole thing is an enigma. Please help any way you can. I'm open to trying everything.

I would like to be able to run cm9 AND send mms. That's what I'd really like. If I can get MMS working, i'd settle for gingerbread. If MMS is just permanently trashed, I'm gonna go back to cm9.
Alright, here's my story, after switching from Sense to CM11 when I first got my HTC One a few months ago things were working alright, then at some point I lost the ability to send or receive mms messages. I looked online and found that there were a few people with the same problem, most said the problem had to do with the apn settings, the solution to was either modified apn settings or using an alternate messaging program, such as 8sms.
Anyways, I tried several different apn setups to try and get my mms back, my LTE internet worked, but no mms. Eventually I found a setup that allowed me to send a mms to someone, but not receive one. I figured that was a good as I was going to get it.
After a few OTA nightly updates I decided to tinker with the apn settings again; my hope being that one of the new nightlies would have fixed the problem if I restored my apn settings to default. This didn't help and cost me the ability to even send mms. Needless to say I scoured the web to find usable apn settings again (I prefer to use the stock messaging app), eventually I ended up Frankensteining several together and found a solution that allowed for me to send and receive mms, as well as my LTE internet! :laugh::laugh::laugh:
[TL/DR]
Found APN settings that enable sending and receiving mms, as well as LTE internet (with a lte subscription, it's not a hack or anything).

I'm on the cm11 nightlies for m7vzw and did this and still can't send MMS. any ideas?
Ok so the phone doesnt download any images or send any images while I am on wifi. Then the women in my family have the habit of sending big group messages and they appear as MMS and they never download either not on wifi or mobile network. Anyone gone through this. Thinking of rooting or getting a new phone. I've only had it for a few months and I love it. But as of late the images not going out or coming in have started to really annoy me. It is not rooted at all. It is from Tmobile if that helps.

I was having the same issue at first, when i switched to hangouts as me default text and mms app everything went back to normal.
Yes, maybe try an alternative messaging app, like Hangouts, Textra, or Chomp.
Also, I don't have your variant or run stock anymore, but we had a similar issue with CM ROMs where the APN authentication was not set for MMS, causing failures while connected to wifi. Have a look in your Mobile Networks portion of Settings and see if there is an APN where MMS is the only APN type for one of them. Changing the authentication type and rebooting is what fixed it for us. That may not be there, but worth the look.
Hey guys, does anyone have any input on sending MMS messages through Verizon? I can receive messages but I can't send them. I'm using Textra and it says it detected my settings and all that good stuff. I also tried the default messenger but neither will send. I tried rebooting, sending to different people, etc, etc.
I'm not sure what I'm missing.. I looked through the general guides as to what the settings are supposed to be and it looks like they are all what they should be. Not sure what to try next.
I have a Pixel XL, running NDE63V, rooted, with the ElementalX .08 kernel. Nothing else really special.
EDIT: Btw I tried sending group messages also which won't go through either.. in order to confirm that it wasn't a file size limitation error..
Thanks guys,

It has to be a proxy / SMS setting. Go to settings - Wireless and networks -> Cellular Net - Access Point names and post a screen shot.
That will tell us exactly what is wrong :good:
That's what I thought too.. right now it's all set to whatever is set by default. I tried changing the settings to represent what is here and still nothing.
https://bestmvno.com/apn-settings/verizon-wireless-apn-settings/
Right now I have it reset back to the default settings. (shown in the attached screenshots)
I tried using textra's mms override settings also.. same problem. Not sure what the heck is going on here.
I just moved my sim card from my nexus 6p over to my new pixel xl a few days ago.. everything else works voice, data, receiving mms, etc.
Would there be a setting on their end that needs to be reset for some reason? I hate calling them but if I need to I will.
Stupid me.. one of the host files in my adaway lists was not allowing the connection. I knew it had to be something silly like that. Problem solved.. thank you very much for your response however.
