I have searched and I have read quite a bit and tried like a dozen different APN settings to get MMS working for my wife's Note 2 with no success. The last post about this was from January I don't know if something has possibly changed since then or what.
Data seems to work fine on many different settings, as well as everything else but MMS. Some will show blank but most show the phone recognizes it was sent a MMS but then when it tries to download the message it cant. ???? Anyone have good success with At&t and Straight Talk that could share their settings and or experience?

You could try these apn setting>>>

And one other question ate you using the stock msg app? Or something from the play store??

Thank you Bajanman. I did try those settings but I still had the same "downloading" MMS messages that never download. This is using the stock messaging app although I have tried others like Handcent and Gosms. The problem may be on Straight Talk end because she tells me the Apn they gave her worked for like a day and then stopped. I'm not sure what to think right now. My S4 works fine once I plugged in the right apn it was perfect. IF hers are right and I'm not sure they are, I can't imagine why it would suddenly stop working.
They suggest/we currently have these settings:
Name: Straight Talk
Apn: tfdata
Port:80
MMSC: http://mms-tf.net
Multimedia Message Proxy:
Mms3.tracfone.com
Multimedia Message Port:

I had not tried those settings, so I plugged them in. I lose data on both right away and have intermittent signal. It seems like the Apn has to be tfdata and not anything else or I lose data.

Remove 80 from both Ports, leave everything else. This is what got everything 100% working for me, as I was experiencing the exact same thing and spent countless hours plugging in different APNs.
I will try that for sure thank you. I have been doing the Apn dance as well and seeking other alternative methods which I have less and less confidence will ever actually work. I'll let you know

Probably cuz that was a TW Rom!!
And you've flashed something that doesn't always play well with signal. Meaning AOSP Rom's that is!!
If unhappy then restore what made you happy like most of us do when we try something and don't like it!!
That's what a back up is FOR!

I'm more than happy with this ROM and of course I've made a back up, it's more wondering if anyone has found a fix or a solution to the problem. You just gave a solid rant with no help what so ever haha as Ace Ventura said "Well, thanks for nothing". I've tried searching for a solution but have had no luck why I put the question up.

I've messaged the ROM developer or at least I believe its the developer hah and hopefully it will be worked out upcoming updates. H+ isn't the fastest but it is do able and the TouchWiz got old for me and more fun stuff for AOSP

Your likelihood of a solution drops to just about zero around here. ..
We're trying to help you. ..but since we don't have your device to look at...or at least an accurate description of your settings. ..then it's clearly a difficult task to find the problem. .
