Mms limits - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4

I've noticed that I can only send 1 or 2 pictures at a time in the stock message app. Is anyone else having this issue? My daughter's iPhone can send more then that to me in 1 message. Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere? Thanks

Yep. That's why I went with textra.

I tried textra and it won't even let me send 1 picture. It says file to large. I'm only sending pictures I've taken with my phone and they are only 8 mb pictures at that

I send 11 pics at a time with textra.

Maybe I have a setting set incorrectly. Do u use it stock or did u tweak some of the settings

U don't have to tweak anything for pics. It should just work.

I deleted and reinstalled textra and I can't send any picture's at all! Texts are fine but no pictures and no matter what I do I can't seem to get it to work

Go into mms settings and manually check configure apn. Look at pic below.

Has to do something with your apn. So with or without that checked u still can't send pics?

Go to Settings>More Networks>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names
Match up what I haveā€¦
Report back if its the same. If not then either check the current APN used and see if its matched up or create a new APN and match up with mine. Then save it. Then reboot your phone. Then try picture sending again.

Yes but now I believe it's an att issue in my area. My friends and family are now also having the same issue,so I believe once the art issue is resolved textra will work.

So you're saying your APN matches mine?

Yes it matches yours exactly. The reason I think it's an art issue is because now when I turn off my WiFi I can't load the play store or YouTube and when I access the Internet it takes forever before any Web page will load

Sorry att issue. Damn auto correct

If I were you I would go to the AT&T site and open up a chat with a rep. Discuss your issue and see what they say. They will be able to tell you if there is network issues in your area or not and provide solutions.

Update. Att had a service area issue and got that resolved and now textra is working great! Thanks to everyone for your help on this thread.

try downloading anycut from the market. once installed open it and select new shortcut...activity...find apns or apn and create a shortcut. once it says created go to your home screen and find it. it should say apns or apn. click it and you should see sprint with a circle next to it...click the circle so that it becomes selected. exit and try to send text. if it doesnt work reboot and try again. You can also edit it as well

Thanks! That worked for me but can you tell me why?
I don't know why it is. I am still learning myself. But for some reason in the kernel or Rom it doesn't activate it all of the time. I am looking forward to bubbys write up on making custom kernels in the developers section. Glad it worked for you. I don't know if there is a thank you button for me somewhere but if there is please tap it.
Didn't work for me. Thanks anyways. I think I'm just going to call sprint to get a new one.

Did an PRL and Profile update and I am back good as new. I had to do this when I first got teh phone because I could not send MMS. Afterwards, I flash roms and so on and just finally got to the flash I like and could not send.
Did the same PRL and Profile update and was able to send them again with ease.
Sprint picturemail has been down since last night
sent from my DAMN ET4G!!!!
Nice! I just did the prl and profile update and sent it. Thanks man!
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
See my issue isn't that I can't receive the messages, it just says downloading and that is it. I haven't had any issues sending them at all like others. Any one else have issues not being able to receive messages?
Try opening messages hit settings and unselect auto retrieve. Now the next time you get a picture mail tap download and see if it downloads. Also try the prl update and profile update as well that was posted by someone earlier.

MMS over WiFi Calling

Hi,
I am running ICS 4.0.4...using stock messaging or Go SMS.
Is there any way to fix the MMS over WiFi calling issue? It's awful. Even though group SMS works within Go SMS, it fails if I'm on WiFi calling, and my friends hate using GroupMe. Are there any APN settings I can change? a different MMS.apk app I can use?
I am rooted FYI.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Craig
Try Samsung's fix. Turn Wi-Fi on. Open gmail and send an email to yourself and attach a pic using the acct registered to for your phone. Once you get that, try sending an mms to yourself. You should get it fairly quickly.

Yes it's a permanent fix. 2nd level tech support at tmo told me about this a few months ago and its worked for me and my wife's phone several times when I've flashed a new Rom that mms over Wi-Fi hasn't worked.

This doesnt work. Mines just switches to 4g to send it then back to wifi..

I believe the issue with GOSMS themselves been testing out MMS over wifi, so far i found it works fine with the stock MMS app and Handcent SMS. Going to try some other apps and see if they work.
Seems i may go back to HandcentSMS until GOSMS fixes it.
I have tried that technique but it failed.....

Thats because it doesnt work. Thats why these devs made it work with the stock DEODEX version or any other custom roms.. I want to see a video from the person that has "achieve" this. Because all I get is when on WIFI, and I send a MMS, 4G comes on real quick to send it and receive it then it switches off.

Im the one who originally posted the Samsung fix several months ago. I have used it after MMS over wifi not working on several ROMS after initial flash, including my current ROM Beastmade (odexed).
Here is your requested video. I sent an MMS to myself, and you can see 4G never turns on. Only wifi uploads/downloads.
Here you go!
MMS only works over data! If on wifi calling it will switch over to data to send and if data is off it will not send.

That's incorrect! If you watch the video i posted 4g never turns on. Also, i just tried it after turning data off and it went thru. If you'd like a friendly $100 PayPal wager I'd be happy to post a video showing it

Can't send or recieve picture messages

So this is a problem I've had for a while now. I can't send or receive picture messages. When I try to send a picture it just stays on sending, but the picture never actually sends. When someone sends me a picture it gives me the option to download (whether my settings are set to auto retrieve or not) and when I click on download it just hangs there. I've tried sending a picture to myself and that works fine. Right now I'm on the Jedi Knight V3 ROM, but I've had this problem on Darkside Evolution, AOKP, and even stock 4.0.4 rooted. Please help!!!

Is your APN set correctly? I don't have any reason to believe it's not, but usually MMS problems have to do with APNs.

Whos your carrier? If its Tmobile or simple mobile, wipe both proxies in your APN setup. Also when you receive or send MMS make sure your WIFI is OFF not on...
I had the same issue, thats what helped me out

[Q] MMS issue on Sprint GS3 flash to Verizon Prepay

Flashed successfully last week, rooted now and running CM10 with ParanoidAndroid 2.54. Talk, SMS, Web, Wi-Fi, Bluethooth, pretty much everything but MMS. I installed APN Backup - Restore, used TB Pro and added as system app.
Backed up current APN list, downloaded and edited to what I have found on the interwebz as the correct APN settings for Verizon, copied back to device and restored through APN Backup and Restore, no errors or issues. Reboot, sent test MMS, nadda, zip, zilch. Message is stuck "Sending..." forever..
I know about GO SMS, however all it does is send a hyperlink of the image to the recipient to go fetch the attachment, which I can pretty much do with DropBox and enable camera uploads..
Did I search the fourms? Yes I friggin did! If anyone out there can point me to the right file, APN list, anything ... I would appreciate it :good:

MMS receiving problem

I'm having problems receiving picture MMS via the stock messaging app. I'm getting the "Download" message but when I click it, it keeps saying download failed. I've attached a screenshot showing what I mean.

I went through this issue for the longest time and finally found a solution that worked for me. I posted this in all MMS issue related threads.
Here is the post about how i was able to fix the issue of not able to receive MMS when connected to Wifi. You still have to turn off WiFi calling for this to work. This was never an issue on my GS3, my wife is using it and still has no problem.
