I think there's something wrong w/ my APN settings. I can send/receive SMS, voice, and data. I can only receive MMS. The only way I've been able to send MMS out is by installing Go SMS Pro and manually putting in APN in the app.
My stock messaging or Handcent can't send out MMS, so I'm thinking perhaps my APN got messed up. How can I verify/correct this?
See fix below! :thumbup:
Please DO NOT QUOTE this post in your reply. Just post your questions or comments if you have any. I DON'T CHECK OR RESPOND TO PM'S.
5/31/2014 Update - The Palm Treo Pro 850 and HTC Touch Pro's MMS are now working again as well.
5/20/2014 Update - As of 5/19/2014, Sprint has removed the HTC Touch Pro2 from the list of decommissioned picture mail phones. MMS is now working again on the HTC Touch Pro2.
5/1/2015 Update - As of 4/30/2014, if you have a flashed phone, Sprint has decommissioned a bunch of older phones as far as MMS functionality is concerned. For more info, look here: https://community.sprint.com/baw/co.../2014/01/31/picture-mail-decommissioning-faqs and https://community.sprint.com/baw/thread/152977?start=0&tstart=0. This affects lots of donor phones including, but not limited to HTC Diamond, HTC Touch Pro, HTC Touch Pro2, Palm Treo 850 Pro, etc. The only way to get your MMS back on your flashed phone is to replace your donor. For Sprint legacy plans such as SERO, the Sprint Sanyo Incognito still works. For Boost, the Boost Sanyo Incognito works as well. Boost phones can't be activated with Sprint, but select Sprint phones can be activated with Boost. None of the mentioned methods below will fix your MMS if your donor phone's MMS has been decommissioned by Sprint.
Background: I bought 2 Galaxy S3's. One had the problem out of the box, and the other was just fine. A friend had a problem as well. It seems some Galaxy S3's may have shipped with a defective APN config setting. Method 1 and Method 3 are the "real" fixes, but they require a rooted phone. Method 2 is more of a work around and doesn't require a rooted phone. You must use 8sms app instead of the stock messaging app for SMS/MMS messages.
If you'd like to thank me, please click on the "Thanks" button instead of posting a thank you note. Let's save storage and bandwidth. And please, please, please...DO NOT QUOTE THIS POST IN YOUR REPLY JUST TO THANK ME!
Method 1 - (the real fix, but requires a rooted phone):
***UPDATE***
I've confirmed that this method works on ICS (4.0.4), Jellybean (4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.2.2, 4.3) , and KitKat ( 4.4.2) . Tested and working on Galaxy S3, S4, Note 2, and Note 3.
1a) Download this working Sprint APN xml file: https://www.box.com/s/40x5ac2c6u0ckzfz59ig (click on download button at the top)
OR
1b) For Boost, download this xml file: https://www.box.com/s/o9folfrq00ee9p2qj5pv (click on download button at the top)
OR
1c) For Virgin Mobile, download this xml file: https://www.box.com/s/9itl21drpp84enqeszc9 (click on download button at the top)
2) Download and install "APN Backup & Restore" from the Google Play Store to your phone: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.riteshsahu.APNBackupRestore&hl=en
3) Convert the "APN Backup & Restore" into a system app by either using Titanium Backup, or simply use Root Explorer/ES File Explorer (root enable it) to move the APK from /data/app to /system/app. For KitKat, move it to /system/priv-app.
4) Reboot the phone.
5) Launch the app, click on menu, then click on "Disable ICS Check".
6) In the main app menu, click on "Backup APNs". This will create a directory called "ApnBackupRestore" in your /mnt/sdcard.
7) Copy the xml file from step 1 to the /mnt/sdcard/ApnBackupRestore folder.
8) Go back to the main app menu, click on "Delete APNs" and confirm it.
9) Go back to the main app menu, click on "Restore APNs".
10) Choose the file you downloaded from step 1 and confirm it.
11) Reboot your phone.
12) Done.
NEW Method 2 (work around, doesn't require rooted phone) - Uses 8sms app which is lightweight unlike other 3rd party bloated messaging apps such as Go SMS Pro, Handcent, etc. More details about the extra features of this app can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2398767
1) Download and install 8sms app to your phone from the Google Play Store here or from the developer's site here.
2) Launch 8sms app.
3) Press Menu button on your phone.
4) Choose Settings
5) Choose MMSC Settings
6) Press "MMSC".
7a) Type in "http://mms.sprintpcs.com" - do not include the double quotes. Press OK button.
OR
7b) Type in "http://mm.myboostmobile.com" for Boost
OR
7c) Type in "http://mmsc.vmobl.com:8088/mms?" for Virgin Mobile
8) Press "MMS PROXY".
9) Type in "68.28.31.7" (Sprint & Boost) OR "205.239.233.136" (Virgin Mobile) - do not include the double quotes. Press OK button.
10) Press "MMS PORT".
11) Type in "80" (Sprint & Boost) OR "81" (Virgin Mobile) - do not include the double quotes. Press OK button.
12) (optional) Press "MMS over WiFi". I know this works for Sprint. Not sure if it works for Boost or Virgin Mobile.
13) Press phone's back button.
14) Choose "Phone Number" under the Extra Settings section and enter your 10 digit phone number.
15) Press OK button.
16) Press phone's back button.
17) Send/receive a few SMS/MMS messages to test.
18) (optional) You can also configure the app's extra settings such as enabling EMOJI, etc.
19) Done.
Hidden below is the OLD Method 2 - Uses Go SMS Pro which is too bloated and doesn't work well with apps such as Avast Mobile Security
OLD Method 2 - Uses Go SMS Pro which is too bloated and doesn't work well with apps such as Avast Mobile Security - (work around, doesn't require rooted phone)
1) Download and install Go SMS Pro to your phone from the Google Play Store.
2) Launch Go SMS Pro and skip through the intro message screens.
3) Skip the Go Chat Service offer unless you really want that.
4) Press Menu button on your GS3.
5) Choose Settings.
6) Scroll down the menu and choose Set default SMS program.
7) Press each entry in the list and put a check mark on "Use by default for this action" then choose Go SMS Pro. When both are done, press the back button on your phone.
8) Up on top, press "Advanced"
9) Scroll down the list and press "MMS Settings"
10) Scroll down the list and put a check mark on "Fill APN configuration manually"
11) Press "MMSC".
12a) Type in "http://mms.sprintpcs.com" - do not include the double quotes. Press OK button.
OR
12b) Type in "http://mm.myboostmobile.com" for Boost

12c) Type in "http://mmsc.vmobl.com:8088/mms?" for Virgin Mobile
13) Press "MMS PROXY".
14) Type in "68.28.31.7" (Sprint & Boost) OR "205.239.233.136" (Virgin Mobile) - do not include the double quotes. Press OK button.
15) Press "MMS PORT".

17) Press back button on phone twice.
18) Send/receive a few SMS/MMS messages to test.
19) Done.
Method 3 - (also a "real fix", but requires a rooted phone and custom recovery such as TWRP, ClockWorkMod, etc.) PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK IF THIS METHOD WORKED FOR YOU!
Disclaimer: I'm not responsible if this breaks your phone. Proceed at your own risk! These scripts will replace your old apns-conf.xml file in /system/etc and will delete your telephony.db. When your phone reboots, the telephony.db will get recreated according to the content of your apns-conf.xml file. Thanks to oakieville for the script!
1) Boot into your custom recovery.
2) (optional, but highly recommended) Perform a nandroid backup using your custom recovery before you apply this fix just in case!
3) Not sure if this is necessary, but go ahead and wipe cache and dalvik cache.
4) Flash ONE of these:
Sprint (original, stock, working MMS for Sprint): https://app.box.com/s/m2pq7sesi6aexwa9zu3g
Boost: https://app.box.com/s/dt16cd44hsix3n2dl0mf
Virgin Mobile: https://app.box.com/s/395osivovclbbr44p5w1
5) Reboot your phone.
6) Done.
7) Please leave feedback if this method worked for you!!!

Thanks Alpineman! You are the man and a great help to the android community. Without you, I wouldn't have been able to get my Galaxy S3 to work on my Legacy SERO plan and now you have helped me get my MMS working again. Thanks!
Think this should be posted on both original / or Android Dev side
Good stuff bro. Thanks for this quick and easy tutorial!! :good:
I am unable to receive MMS from anyone that doesn't own a sprint phone. I am however able to send M M S. Do you think this will help with that.

Thank you very much, now my phone to work properly.
cant do it says does not support 4.1
I have not tried this on Android 4.1...Only on ICS. You can downgrade to ICS first, apply the fix, then upgrade to 4.1. The fix should carry over.

Tried this method on AOKP 4.1 and lost the ability to receive any SMS or MMS. I then Odined back to stock Touch Wiz 4.04, rooted and tried again. I still can't receive any SMS/MMS at all since trying it, but I can send SMS just fine... Probably gonna Odin back to stock and take my phone to the store tomorrow as I have no idea what to try next and no SMS is no cool

Did you try reflashing the aokp rom? I tried this fix earlier and it didn't work for me either and I also could not send or receive afterwards. I then wiped and just flashed aokp again like a new install and all was well after that. I would try that before deciding to take your phone back to the store.

I didn't try reflashing AOKP because I still couldn't receive any texts at all, SMS or MMS. I'm in the process of Odining back to stock, maybe I'll re-root, try the fix, and reflash AOKP before the night is over.
Does Odin not return the APNs back to stock? My phone worked fine (minus MMS a known issue w/ AOKP) until I tried this fix.

You didn't need your apn settings to work in order to reflash aokp. What wiping (cache, dalvik, system and factory reset) then reflashing would have done would have restored aokp to your phone as a fresh install and reset your apn settings.

Ok, rooted once more, wiped cache/dalvik, did a factory data reset, then flashed AOKP 9-11, sent a regular old SMS to my gf who is sitting right next to me. She got the text within 2-3 seconds and replied back. It's now been just over 5 minutes and I haven't received her reply SMS.
I've been rooting my phones for 3+ years now, always carefully following instructions from XDA and I've never had an issue that I couldn't fix myself. I just have no idea what else to try =/

My friend Jeremy helped me with getting rid of the "Hands Free Activation" pop-up and I thought I would share it. It especially comes in handy when you are flashed to another carrier. If you are on one of the new custom ZVB Roms you probably don't have to worry about it. All you have to do is:
1) Get a Root File Browser .... I like Rom Tool Box
2) Go to "System" folder
3) Go to "App" folder .... (not Apps)
4) Scroll down and find "OmaDmclient.apk" and rename it to "OmaDmclient.bak"
5) Reboot and you should not get that aggravating ass pop up any more

I hope I've helped someone because a lot of people have damn sure helped me!

With Page Plus and Straight Talk you have to have certain APN's set. Is your APN correctly set for Page Plus?
EDIT: ( I don't even know if I can post this but I sure admin will let me know...LOL)
I found this in my files, used it long ago and am not sure if it still is applicable but there may some information in it that may be able to lead you in the right direction......

3G data speeds (HOW TO)
This guide is to get evdo data or 3g data speeds on phones flashed to page plus cellular this is not a beginers guide by no means this guide is assuming both spc codes are set to 000000.
things you will need:
1.A donor phone of your own that will ota program and one that you can swap the esn number to that of the target phone. I used a samsung i500
2.Target phone that you own
3.qpst and dfs 4.0.0.4 demo
4.drivers for both phones
Pre-Setup:
1.pull battery out of the target phone and LEAVE it out
2.place that esn number on the donor phone
3.Deactivate then reactivate the target phones esn number
4.OTA program the donor phone that has the swapped esn number on it.
5.Verify that 3g speeds are working on the donor phone
Phase 1:
1.Place donor phone in diagnostic mode and plug into computer
2.Open qpst configuration add the port
3.Go to start clients then efs explorer
4.Open the DMU folder and copy the 10.key file to your computer then exit qpst
Phase 2:
1.Open DFS and select the port that the phone is on
2.Send the spc you should see a device unlocked message in the log.
3.Go to the programming tab then the nam tab and read that page.
4.Read the Data tab and Mobile IP tab as well.
5.Do not close the dfs tab
6.Revert esn back to normal or smash the donor phone into a lot of pieces
Final Phase: (Non-Verizon and Sprint)
1.Power on target phone and place in diagnostic mode and plug into computer
2.Open qpst configuration add the port
3.Go to start clients then efs explorer
4.Now on the Left side of the efs explorer right click the screen go to new and directory
5.Name the directory "DMU" without the quotation marks then place the 10.key file into that directory by drag and drop then exit qpst
6.Now go back into dfs do not add the target phone yet and go to mobile ip nothing else on the screen should change
7.Now select the port the target phone is on in dfs and send the spc code
8.Write the nam tab to target phone after verifing it doesnt say home only then go to data tab and check the box next to pwd on the ppp section only which will change the pwd to hex format then write the data tab
9.Go to the mobile ip tab and right click the red stop sign looking thing on the second bubble and enable it and set active profile to 1 then click "write current profile settings" and click the write button on the left side of the screen
10.Now go back to the Nam tab and load the prl file I prefer using 00002 but you can experiment
Final Phase: (Verizon 4gLTE)
1.Power on target phone and place in diagnostic mode and plug into computer
2.Open qpst configuration add the port
3.Go to start clients then efs explorer
4.Now on the Left side of the efs explorer right click the screen go to new and directory
5.Name the directory "DMU" without the quotation marks then place the 10.key file into that directory by drag and drop then exit qpst
6.Now go back into dfs do not add the target phone yet
7.Now select the port the target phone is on in dfs and send the spc code
8.Write the nam tab to target phone after verifying it doesn't say home only then go to data tab and check the box next to pwd on the ppp section only which will change the pwd to hex format then write the data tab
9.Go to the mobile ip tab click "write current profile settings" and click the write button on the left side of the screen
10.Now go back to the Nam tab and load the prl file i recommend 00002 but experiment with what you want and reboot phone and enjoy
Having issues try getting 1x first on lte phones you will need a sim card unactivated by verizon and it should pop up after a minute or two should never take longer than 15 minutes the first time
make sure you have it set to nv only on lte handsets.
Need a guide for a specific model name it I'll write it for you step by step for a small fee.
Note I have not tested this on any apple product so cannot support them.
Between getting 1x and then going to target phone must be on airplane mode after esn on account is switched back

ANOTHER EDIT : SOMETHING I FORGOT ABOUT YOUR MMS
Steps to MMS (picture mail) configuration: This is only one way, but it works...
1. Open the messaging app and press menu and select settings.
2. Uncheck EVERY item in the settings and exit the app with the back button.
3. Open your browser and go to the URL "mms.ihavegreat.info" and download
4. Pull down the top of your screen and wait for the app to finish downloading
5. Tap the app to install and let it authorize and setup
6. Remove the stock messaging app from homescreen and replace with this new one.....(may also disable the original message app)
7. Reboot the phone and you should have working MMS

Hello,
yes, now we finally found a solution.
Do exactly as described:
Download Settings Database Editor from playstore and open it
Look for hw_networkmode_preference and edit the stock value "9,6,2,1" to "11"
Restart the device
Open Settings Database Editor
Click on + Add new setting at the top
Type "hw_add_4g_only" (without " ") and press save changes
Type in your country code, example "502" Malaysia or "262" Germany. Press save changes
Type "hw_add_4g_only" (without " ") and press save changes (YES, REPEAT STEP 6)
Type in your country code, example "502" Malaysia or "262" for Germany and press save changes (YES, REPEAT STEP 7)
Restart the device and VOILA!
Now you have access to ALL network modes. Select "LTE" or "4G" for 4G only functionality.
Like this, you have stable Internet nearly where ever you go, without dropping back to overcrowded 2G/3G Networks.
Best,
Stefan
p.s.: thanks to ronald_loulan for original solution!

Download "Setttings database editor" by 4a. Open it up and click on Global properties, scroll down until you see "tether_dun_required". Change the value to zero. You now have internet via hotspot. It's best to buy the add on because it keeps the setting locked even if you restart phone. Enjoy?

Oh my bad i left out the most important part.
1. Install adb on your laptop (search it up)
2.On your phone go to settings, general, about phone, software info, find build number section and keep tapping until you are a developer
3. Go back to general and you'll now see developer options, turn developer options on and go down to usb debugging and turn it on.
4. Connect your phone to your laptop via USB (you will get a promt on your phone along the lines of "allow USB debugging?", click ok) and open up command terminal
5. Type "adb" and press enter
6. Type the command (without quotes) "adb devices". Your device should show up.
7. Type "adb shell" and press enter
8. Open up the settings database editor and go to global and scroll down to tether_dun_required. Click "edit value" and the shell command should pop up.
Type the shell command into adb shell and press enter
9. Go to the settings data base editor and go back to the tether_dun_required and click on change value. You'll notice that you are now able to change the value, change it to 0.
10. Enjoy your hotspot!
It seems like a lot of steps but it's not. The most "difficult" task will be installing adb.
Awesome. Got it to work now. Do you have to set it to 1 for the Ota updates or after each reset? Thanks again!
No, theres no need to set it back to "1". After you shut off your phone the setting value will turn back to a "1" and you hotspot wont work until you switch it back to "0". To save time you can buy the feature pack and you'll get access to settings guardian which will keep it at "0" at all times.
