I have a solavei SIM, and have for quite some time, never had any issues. All of a sudden I can't send mms, I've tried all the apn's and even factory reset, all the way up to odin the phone all the way back. I still can't get mms to work. Someone please help. The phone is tmobile s3, locked, never had any issues, not rooted.

Sorry, never heard of solavei....
If it just happened randomly, then it's probably on the carrier side. Call and see if they made any changes recently that could affect this. Otherwise, I'm just not sure.

I don't I'm puzzled by this. I had someone look into it for me. The only thing they could come up with was my phone is T-Mobile kicked do they can't help me.. yet they're a T-Mobile mvno

I'm actually wondering if it could be T-Mobile's fault....sorta. with all of their recent changes and network upgrades, couldn't it be possible that some important things are now different, but your carrier has no idea about it as they may not have been informed? Or maybe something like this wasn't expected. It's just a guess of course, but I know the primary apn changed in markets where T-Mobile deployed LTE. Maybe other things changed too?
I know you said you tried the different apn's, but try the file linked below. Rename the current apns-conf.xml with .bak and copy this one over. It's in /system/etc/ I believe. Then reboot and see if it helps. It's all I can think to try right now. But this has only the new T-Mobile apn. All others are removed.

I'm using Solavei just fine make sure you APNS are setup properly and that you save and select the apn to use. Dont just press back. You can download the solavei app to set up your phone if you still cant figure it out.

That kind of sounds like it could be an account problem, just a guess though, but it would make sense. Maybe go to a local store and ask.If you can try one of their SIM cards in your device.

If you're stock, not rooted, there's not a lot you can do. Chances are it's an issue on the carrier side still. Have you tried your SIM in another device? Tried a new, or someone else's SIM?

Well I can still send mms if I use a third party app, without having to use Wi-Fi.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk now Free
Usually a stock sms/mms app sends via the carrier, so it goes over a secure line through their servers....or something similar to that. Hard to explain. 3rd party apps don't care about your carrier and just send over the internet, be you connected via WiFi or mobile data.

Fixed it! Had to modify the solavei apn. Basically mms proxy had to be black, had to change authentication type to none, add the ,supl,mns,admin,hipri whatnot. Basically even though this was suppose to be imei specific, it was incorrect.

Ok I think I found a very simple method to get wifi calling on multiwindow roms.
Check if your rom has the app wificall.apk in /system/app/
Get QcustomShortcuts from market (free)
Make a shortcut to:
Package: com.movial.wificall
Class: com.movial.wificall.Settings
You now have wifi call settings on multiwindow rom
Ok so....I tried on a different rom, the required apps don exist but im making progress.
Needed apps in /system/app
wificall.apk
ip-provider.apk
IPService.apk
gba-service-TMO-Signed.apk
Need Secsettings.apk from a wificalling rom
Need some other files ( I have copies a bunch from wifi calling rom, but these are the ones I think changed things)
In framework:
gba-service-lib.jar
In etc/permissions
gba-service-lib.xml
Only thing is it tells me bad sim.

Hey Dennis,
Forgive me but I'm unclear as to whether or not you just are referring to having needed those files or whether you're asking for someone to send them out of a stock install. If it's the latter I can help. If it's the former... well then I'm just out of my depth!

You have to add them. And apparently secSettingsProvider also in /system/app. Plus some unknown items to get the sim card registering correctly.

I've been running Xylon Rom for some time without any data/internet issues. This morning I unplug my phone and there is no data service. I can make/receive calls and texts but have no data/internet service.
I spoke with AT&T about my issue but they were unable to resolve it and recommended I get a new sim card.
Any recommendations would be appreciated.
Thanks
Did you check your APN? Maybe try rebooting the phone. It shouldn't just disappear for no reason.

YEP! Thank you! I wonder what caused it to switch like that on its own. Again, thank you!

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
Just a trick for future issues...
Go into your APN settings and create a duplicate APN of the one you use in a new location. Then dump the APN's you don't use.
Xylon is clearly a CM variant build, and contains 3-4 extra APN's already yes ?
Dump the ones you don't use, and leave the one you do, then create the duplicate.
That way, the system only has the correct APN to use, and will still function if it reverts to the alternate APN......g
I have searched this, but there seems to be no unified answer lately, so I thought I'd give it a new go now. Basically, is it possible to do it?

I have terrible cell service at home. Can't send MMS without Wi-Fi calling, it just never goes through. With Wi-Fi calling on, it takes just a couple seconds. It definitely works.
Check /system/app for gba-service-TMO-Signed.apk. You need that to send MMS over WiFi.
You are right! Couldve sworn it would activate mobile data and send that way.....now that I'm thinking about it, I think that's how it worked on my old phone! Oops.
Sorry bout that. But i just tried it and it works fine for me. Thanks aero!

You can pull it from the stock rom and copy it to your /system/app directory. Make sure permission is correct then reboot and try again.
I'm just guessing, but Im thinking in some cases people who don't know what it does remove it thinking its bloat since it has tmo in the name.

Used permissions rw-r-r. Put both in system/app and rebooted. Still a no go. In both gosms and native app, pic just sits there, saying sending (native) and sending flashing green arrow (gosms). Again, I tried it both with WiFi calling on and off, and let each try sit for 5+ minutes.

This is becoming problematic for me, as I like to send pics often, but are always on WiFi at home and anywhere I can pick it up. Network indoors at home is spotty, but manageable.
If any of the files were missing from the rom, you could add them back in and reflash. Maybe they would make a difference then.

the wifi tether for root users is not working with the liquid smooth rom just released, but the optimus DE rom works just fine as well as stock. tried reconfiguring it all different ways and mimicking the optimus rom settings I had that worked just fine. not sure why it works fine for one and not for another. any ideas?
just so everyone knows, I'm not a total noob at this. I've had a Samsung nexus S 4g forever, had it rooted for almost 2 years. great phone, moved up to the optimus for its hardware capabilities, but have had some issues with configurations on certain apps. great phone so far, the lg firmware makes it a little difficult to play around with. I've tried wiping davlik, pulling data from my other rom and everything. I went from a 4.1.2 rom to a 4.3.1 rom. i'm wondering if the 4.3 doesn't support the wifi tether? I use the crap out of it and haven't ever been billed for it. its awful handy, and sucks not to have it. tried the trevE mod version too, with the exact settings off my other rom it always starts with errors. if I turn it to NetD it works properly but doesn't show up when I scan to find it. not sure whats going on here?
