[Q] Cant recieve MMS - SOLVED - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

There are quite a few threads on this issue...ive yet to find a solution that works for me. I started expericing this about a month ago when i was running Fusion1.1 (JI6). I remember someone telling me to factory wipe and reflash ROM
Well i finally did that recently, i flashed Axura JL5 and made the switch to that. Its still happening.
Funny thing is, when i use HandcentSMS, i cannot send or recieve. But if i use GOsms, i can send, but i just cant recieve.
ive tried the standard TMobile APN settings, and all the kill-throttle APN settings, but they dont change anything.
SOLUTION:
I deleted the default Mms.apk upon flashing Acura JL5. I had no idea that it was required for MMS functionality. Learn something new everyday

Radio 1.14.25.35 from official FUZE ROM Breaking MMS

Is it just me or is anyone experiencing a "Forbidden" error when sending/receiving MMS after updating to AT&T's new ROM with 1.14.25.35 Radio?
I've reflashed the updated AT&T ROM and then flashed NRG's latest 6.5 ROM with the correct Rilphone.dll and still have the Error. I even tried sending from the new stock ROM and got the error. I did this multiple times to make sure it wasn't a bad flash and still have the "Forbidden" error. Did I do something wrong when I flashed the new ROM and Radio? The settings in MMS are correct and I didn't load anything else prior to testing MMS.
At first I thought it was AT&T and wasted over 30 minutes with a rep that knew next to nothing. Then it dawned on me that this all started after I updated to the new ROM/Radio release for AT&T on HTC's website. So, I reverted back to the original shipped ROM with 1.02.25.32 Radio, flashed NRG's latest 6.5 ROM and can now send/receive MMS.
I had the same forbidden error and had to talk to tech support from att.. apparently it's because i had placed my sim into an iphone and we all know iphones can't send mms so it registered into their system that i was using an iphone thereby causing the iphones imei to register to my number hence why it's forbidden to send/receive a mms. did you perhaps do something similar?
ATT0001 file can't open it
Hey Guys... sorry than I can't help to solve your problem.. But i have a problem too with the MMS... what happens is that every time I send or receive a mms to a windows mobile phone comes as ATT0001 file and I can not open .. I need help with this thanks
Loner2DEnd: I did but only to unlock one. I've done this before and have never had that problem up. I only noticed that I wasn't able to send/receive MMS after I had the official update from HTC for the FUZE. I was on the phone with the tech and they told me that using my SIM in an iPhone wouldn't have updated my account. You can log onto your online account with AT&T and see what phone/IMEI is registered with your account. Mine still has my FUZE and correct IMEI. Everything is working now that I reflashed the original shipped ROM with the 1.02.25.32 Radio.
I downloaded another copy of the ROM update from HTC for the FUZE and ran the same tests to see if maybe it was a corrupted file/bad flash and I still had the same issues with MMS. My internet still worked but I got the same Forbidden Error. For now, I'm going to just stay with my current (original shipped) Radio since everything's working.
Dannyedilber: I'm not familiar with that Error. Sorry man. I don't know much about MMS and had to do some homework and some trial and error to finally find this solution. Maybe one of the seniors can answer your question.
I've had this problem a few times but usually fixes itself after a reset or a quick disconnect/reconnect of the radio.
I find that if I leave my data on for an extended period of time, it seems to happen. Almost like AT&T is seeing the high traffic and cutting me off.
Also check to make sure you guys don't have Data disabled in your accounts.
@Dannyedilber: I don't even know what an "ATT0001" file is?
@Loner2DEnd: My wife just returned her iPhone because she said it sucks compared to Windows Mobile (smart girl eh?) and went back to her old Samsung Blackjack. We did this yesterday, after her having the iPhone for a little under 30 days. I just sent her a picture and she got it.
From AT&T
The data network works for all of our devices and the Windows Mobile devices are the only ones that seem to have had some issues with the way the data network is configured. Rather than trying to re-configure and potentially break the network for other users, we have been working on a fix for the Windows Mobile issue. We have a fix that will be implemented by the end of this quarter and we should have the problem resolved at that time.

From AT&T
Just wanted to let you know that I did get an update. The project to "fix" the 403 error is moving forward. Right now we plan to have the implementation complete in June with Project closure in Early July. I will follow up again in about a month to see the status and provide closure information.
Just for clarification: This project hasn't slipped a month, we keep the project open during a "soak" period to ensure that everything is going as expected. Also, as we apply the fix to the elements in the network the fix will be applied to certain markets and complaints should drop for that market dramatically. I haven't seen this issue in a while here so I believe that the patch has been applied for the Minneapolis market.

An easy temporary fix is to put your phone into flight mode and then take it out. A new data connection almost always works. Worst case scenario soft reset the phone.
so its by market then?
I flashed the new rom about last week, had no issues receiving and sending MMS on it and on NATF's 4.7 rom.
Still No MMS

My MMS is not working incoming or outgoing. I have tried it from TF3D2, Titanium, after reset, after airplane mode and reset with no success. I put my SIM card in my backup phone and MMS send and receive worked flawlessly. I do not get the forbidden error message some of you have gotten; it just does not work. I have reset the RegEdit keys several times and they are currently set at 1.2mb. I know that 6oo K is at&t max, but the two test MMS messages are 77K and 317k. Thanks - David.

It sounds like you have a different issue altogether. My posts were answers from AT&T strictly for the 403 forbidden issue.
Player911 sorry that I was not very specific...whats happening is when I send a ATT MMS to someone who have a HTC touch pro to her hotmail account.. she can't open it because the picture come as ATT0001.. even when I send att MMS to myself at my email account I receive as a ATT0001
Need help with this guys.. please
Sorry my english
Hi All:
First off thank you for the info in resolving this issue. Since swithing back to the original shipped ROM with radio 1.02.25.32 then flashing EnergyROM 3.0 Phoenix 6/12, I've had no problems with MMS Forbidden Error. It's been a week now and I've had no data/network issues either. I'll try again with the new Radio/ROM this weekend when I have some free time and will report back. Thanks everyone!
Tru using a registry editor and go in and change the registry in Arcsoft under HKLM>Software>Arcsoft>Arcsoft MMS UA>Config>MM1>MMSCSetting>SampleMMSC>Wap1SendDefault and Wap2SendDefault and change to a desired number. For instance, I have 102400 set to send up to 1MB.
See if that allows you to send.
try enabling ATT's proxy. This always works for me.
1. Enable the proxy
2. Kill the data connection
3. Reconnect data
4. Try sending or receiving.
This has worked countless times for me.

[SOLVED]No multimedia msgs - phone problem??

So, this morning was the first day of school for my kids. Of course I snap several photos then go to txt the pictures to the grandparents. And the phone goes to send..... and then just sits there.... for ages. Then eventually errors out. Odd, but you know, at&t is kind of crap so I figure I'll try it when I get to work. A few mins later I receive a picture msg from my sister and I cannot open that either.
Anyway, it looks like I cannot send or receive multimedia messages now. After chatting with the at&t support person for what seemed like hours, he says the problem is likely with my phone and i need to do a warranty replacement.
I am thinking that's a ROM bug/issue, right? Would doing a master reset possibly fix this? Has anyone else had this problem? (I'm running the at&t official GB ROM, I did not do the OTA update though. I did the full pudding/root pre-install load.
Mmm, I don't how it is named in English, but you should have something called "data management" in the setting.
In there there a 2 menus : in the first "data stream control" (or something like that, again I have a French rom) you should deactivate it or MMS can not been sent/received.
At least that was the case for me. This also prevent from doanloading app with only 3g, you must have wifi.
This is quite annoying because I can't control the data AND send MMS but wel... maybe there is another workaround.
Edit : I'm in 2.2.2, I don't know if that will be the same in 2.3.4.
You need to have the correct APN settings. Check in your Mobile Network options.
Who is your service provider?
Hot damn rush! I had changed my APN to a custom one a while ago (just apn defined as 'phone' nothing else set.) I changed it back to the default HSDPA and la-da!
I wonder why that custom APN stopped working?
THANK YOU!
Glad you have it working now, enjoy.

It has really been agravating and I would love to figure out what I can do to get this working right, I dont know if it is the modem software??? Is it my apn settings??? I have tried different things and still nothing so any help would greatly be apprecitated and I have noticed alot of other people in threads seem to be having this problem so if we can figure it out I would love to make a thread to help out others...thanks in advance...
did you talk to your provider, they may have adjust or refresh your account settings from their end.
That's very weird actually, i used to have issues sending MMS but i never had any issues receiving them.

i have talked to at&t and finally got them to change my account and settings so I know for 100% that I am on the right rate plan and settings......
I to was having problems with MMS on ATT but my problem was sending them not receiving though. After I was sure I had the correct apn setting a customer services specialist had me do this. Try opening your phone dial pad and entering *5005*7672*+13123149810# then the green phone button. This is suppose to reset your sms/mms setting back with the network. Long and behold it fixed my problem of sending mms.
just to double check something - are you leaving your data (edge or 3g) enabled? disabling the phone's data connection will prevent mms from coming through.

No more Texting :(

So I found out that nobody is receiving my texts anymore on my vibrant. I upgraded to cm7 worked great then I did the nightly upgrade and it will still say its sent but people don't receive them. So I wiped everything started again upgraded to miui and I still have the same problem. Could there be something wrong with my network settings I messed with the testing setting a little (you know the *#*#4636#*#*) when i was tryin to fix the battery drain on cm7 which i never did
Make sure that your APNs are set correctly. There is one in there for data and wireless and also one for MMS. I find that when I have had problems like this in the past it has been due to those SMS/MMS settings being missed.
If i were you i'd just give TMO a call and ask what your APN is just to be sure that its not different or anything...
If i had this problem on more than one rom, i'd panic and do that right away.
I used to be a text-er like you, but then I took an arrow to the knee.
I sure hope, I'm not having the same problem.

Dialer search by last name and mms question?!

I've installed [ROM][XWLA4][FEB 23] CheckROM RevoHD™ V6 | Kitchen Pro v2.4. with siyah kernel. Everything is super fine ... but
In dialer ... when i am typing for person i would like to call it searches only on first names. Is there a solution to get names also with last names?
On the other hand ... is there a way to send MMS message without manually switch on "data" ?
Anyone could help me with this issues?
Thanks!
I would also like to fix the first part of the questions.
The second part works fine on my phone (I just send a MMS and that's it) so check your APN and roaming settings.
This can in my opinion only be fixed by changing the dialer. I have installed Rocketdial and this gives you many more options than the stock dialer. It also integrates with the phone fantastically. Try it!

You didn't understand well ... i can send MMS but first i have to activate DATA network manually.
So i am trying to find solution with automatic MMS send even if data network is set to OFF.
