After rooting I can't send a MMS while on wifi. My APNs are correctly defined. When i turn of wifi it works like a charm. Any Ideas?
Thx.
Tried deleting the username in the MMS APN and now it works with wifi on too. STRANGE!
Anybody has any idea what's the cause of this erratic behaviour?
Only worked once, not working anymore

I have this problem too........but I had the problem before rooting too.
I didn't have it before rooting. I specifically tried yesterday sending a MMS while on WiFi and it worked. Today on a rooted phone it's a no go.
It's strange that it went trough once, with no username. Doesn't make any sense to me...
What network you on? I have my unrooted desire on T-Mobile UK and cannot send MMS. In testing and trouble shooting with T-mobile I have only sent 3 successfully out of at least 50!!
I have spoken with my local T-Mobile shop and they tell me a large number of customers have been complaining about MMS send failures (even thought they seem to send).
I have put message notification on for MMS and they all end up status pending. I can however receive MMS and send to myself with no problems.
Anyone else seen similar problems?
My carrier is Mobitel, Slovenia.
Can anybody confirm that after rooting his MMS is still working while connected to wifi networks?
T-Mobile desire
I rooted (cant be sure if this problem was not present before tho),
found i had problems with mms, some would occasionally get through (using handcent) although 90% would not, even though they would apper to have left my handset ok.
Some i sent to my brother arrived at his phone saying "unsupported format" which is odd, most other times nothing at would arrive at all !!
i then unrooted and flashed with a generic HTC rom....mainly to fix the mms issue !
that didnt work, im still having the same problem!
ive recently bought a o2 simplicity sim and have requested an unlock code from t-mobile (mainly due to crap reception in my basement flat) but im hoping the problem is not haunting o2 users and will go away once i switch over networks
either that or a new official rom (hopefully with FroYo, flash and xvid support!) will do the trick
would be interested to know if any T-Mobile users who have the original t-mobile rom installed have had this problem, and anyone on an o2 sim
Pissing me off tho!
EDIT: have checked and double checked APNs, reinstalled them just in case and tried all the tricks ive heard others saying have cleared the issue

I have the same problem when using the HTC stock messages or Chomp SMS but using Handcent, every MMS is sent fine without problem.
I'm on Tmobile as well.
I'm thinking it might be a problem with the ROM.
For all you T-Mobile people, does it work if you flash the non branded HTC ROM?

Dunno if this helps but I send a photo from my desire via 3g to a non-desire phone and it worked. I guess that was a MMS. (Oddly, it seemed to send it as a slideshow of 1 photo, which I thought was a little odd but I've had that on other phones before.)
Poldie, yep that's a mms. Sending without wifi connected to a network works.

You wont be any better off on o2, I am having issues sending with stock messaging app, just wont go, it will with handcent and also my partner is on o2 simplicity and her sim in my phone also works and she is able to send pictures fine. has to be below a certain size though (think it is 300kb). Phone is rooted although had similar issue with non rooted phone but worse as could not receive fulll size mms either, can now rooted. Handcent will also work sending mms, just seemsto be an issue with the stock app and HTC messaging.
On my galaxy nexus I can't set up my exchange account. I get the message "Can't connect to server." I have a build of ICS on my old incredible that I was able to set up my account on using the exact same settings. Is anybody else having this problem? Any solutions?
GNex Exhange Issues
Hey... Just signed up to hopefully get some headway on this. I also picked up the Galaxy Nexus (awesome so far) and tried to set up my Exchange account. I used the same settings from my OG Droid, so I know they're correct. I also get the "Can't connect to server" error message. I can add a few points of interest:
-I was able to successfully set up my account using the identical settings just by hopping on WiFi. My account synced up fine and appeared to be solved. However, as soon as I went back on Verizon's wireless network, I once again can no longer connect to the server and receive no new mail.
-Third party email apps, such as TouchDown, connect to the server just fine while on the VZW network or WiFi. So at least that means it's not an issue with Verizon's network. You may want to find a third party app in the meantime to at least get you up and running until we can get the native app running.
-I've already been in touch with both the admins for my Exchange account and Verizon tech support. Unsurprisingly, they have no previous reports of similar issues on the GNex and don't have any way of fixing the issue. I recommend reporting it to VZW to at least get more documented cases on the books with them.
So if anyone around here has cracked this egg so far, I would appreciate some help. I suspect this isn't going to be a quick fix, whatever the specific issue, but we will see. If I can provide any more info to help, just let me know. Thanks.
I've setup my exchange account on the nexus just fine. It works on 3g/4g and wifi perfectly.

Same here. However, due to the terrible radio reception, I did have some instances AFTER setup where it failed to connect for a refresh because mobile data wasn't available (because signal was in the toilet).
Hi to all, i'm an italian writer and my english is too bad

Try re installing whatsapp? That seemed to work on my friends nexus when he was having problems with it ?
i have searched every possible threads and browsed Google for hours to find for a solution. but i couldn't find any. i have a stable WiFi connection,yet, my whatsapp messages are delayed.( they are not delayed if i am using mobile data). if i send a msg now it takes forever to send it.moreover if someone send me a messsage , i receive it lately,probable 3,4 messages together. i have also noticed that my WiFi do not stay active when i use whatsapp.probably this is the reason my messages do not get sent instantly. the two small arrows in the WiFi bars disappears.which means data are not being sent or received.i have to open the play store or browse the internet to make the connection active. why is it that when i use whatsapp the WiFi connection becomes inactive but when i browse,WiFi is healthy? is there any way that i can force WiFi to stay active and connected when i am using whatsapp?or is it possible to increase the priority of whatsapp to use the max WiFi strength just like browsers and play-store? i really can don't care about battery if i can use whatsapp properly.is there any modded whatsapp apk which can force max wifi to stay active etc etc... i am really frustrated. any help is highly appreciated.
p.s: i have changed kernels, from Franco to trinity than Franco again, unchecked "avoid poor WiFi connections", set WiFi sleep policy to "never"
Sounds more like a problem with your WIFI router then the phone itself. Have you tried to reboot your router?
WIFI High performance widget might help you to keep the WIFI alive when screen off.

Did you tweak the Wifi parameters with your custom kernels (low latency mode)? Have you tried flashing back stock kernel to see if that fixes the issue?
not yet. but my question is if the wifi network was the problem then my brothers htc one x running ics and galaxy tab running gingerbread should also face this problem in whatsapp,ryt? but they dont.is it the rom i am using?do u think getting back to stock might help? any recommendations? i love xenon
I know exactly what you're talking about because I experience it as well. It doesn't matter what ROM, (stock, CM10, PA etc) kernel, (stock, Franco, Trinity etc) or what WiFi network I'm on (work, home, coffee shop etc) but whenever I'm on WiFi my messages in WhatsApp are delayed when the application isn't open. I've basically concluded it's the app itself that has a problem with WiFi. I have no fix, I just keep hoping that the next update will fix it.
The developer website isn't very helpful either. Basically suggesting not to use WiFi if the other fixes they suggest don't work.

No idea unfortunately
I know it was running fine for me on ICS, but I noticed it changed after JB. I run the version of WhatsApp offered directly from the website which I think is different from the Play Store, so I don't know if it was a version change, or something specific to JB.
If I know I'm going to be using WhatsApp I stay off WiFi. Not ideal, but it's the only thing I've done that's "fixed" it.

If you always had this problem since the day you bought the phone and on stock (not sure if you flashed a custom ROM right on the first day you owned it), probably not. But if whatsapp worked fine before and the problem was introduced after flashing a custom ROM/kernel, I'd say returning to stock will probably fix it.

I've used whatsapp since day 1 I have my gnex. No issues whatsoever, not on ICS nor on JB. I also don't see this forum flooded with people complaining about whatsapp, so I'd say it's a specific problem linked to your whatsapp account and/or phone.

Beats me. However, with millions of users and billions of messages sent per day, things obviously can go wrong. Try contacting whatsapp support.

I've used Whatsapp for a very long time, previously on an HTC Desire S and now on my GNex GSM and never had issues.... I'm on stock JB rom but I've tried several others with diff kernels and no probs whatsoever. Until today. Faced the exact same prob as the OP described (whatsapp msg's go thru or come very late on wifi but do so fine on 2G/EDGE - however everything else works just fine re gtalk msg's/browsing etc and whatsapp works fine too on my brother's SGS3 on wifi).
Was going nuts googling about it when my brother informed me that he'd changed the home ISP and now our wifi router was pumping out access from a new ISP's modem. So I tried switching back to the old ISP to test (swapped the cable modem that connects to our wifi router) and whatsapp works fine again. Then my brother switched back to the new ISP's modem and same problem for me on whatsapp! So we factory reset the router after upgrading it's software to latest from the manufacturers website and now, finally, whatsapp works fine for me on both ISP's modems.
Maybe you can try messing with your router (factory reset or look thru its settings or try another ISP input just to test?), maybe it will help. It's a strange issue though. (FWIW my router's a cheap one by TENDA and my phones wifi sleep policy is set to always on).

Hey, i have just installed the newest MIUI Australia 3.1.11v2 on my HOX, and i have one simple problem.
At first nothing worked, but after a few reinstallations, the only thing not working now is sms and data.
I can make calls, recieve calls and recieve sms's, but i can't send any sms's myself, and i cant get on the internet unless using wifi.
I updated my hboot to 1.39, and if there is anything else you need just ask
Hope someone can help me.

Had sort of issues like you. Did everything to fix it. Turned out my SIM couldn't register on the network of my operator (2g all fine, 3g mess up). If you call the support of your operator, they can look it up. Had to get a replacement SIM.
Try disable 3g and send a sms to someone, when I had 3g on it wouldn't deliver the sms. As soon it was disabled it could.
Not saying you got the same, but most of the issues you report are very familiar with what I got in past.

Well just tried to disable the data, but it didn't work. I just cant see why the problem should be caused by the sim since it worked fine with another rom yestaday?

It started with rooting the device by me. When I got the device I left it stock without root for 4 weeks, after that week I started to get this problem. From one on the other day. It didn't make sense at all.
I serious spent 5 months to fix this, I had made radio changes, RIL changes, ROM changes, removing root, had contact with services centers, had contact with operator, had contact with HTC and none of them worked or could provide a solution. Untill I got a (smart) girl on the phone at the operator support who told me to get a new sim card to see if the phone would register at the network then.
Thats why I say this to you, as none acctually knows what went wrong and you have exact same issues as me. In case you spent so much time to find it out while someone could have a solution available.
