[Q] unlocked and rooted.. now what..? mms FAIL - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello fellow XDA'ers, just rooted my tmobile vibrant and unlocked... i have ATT wireless. ive been a crackberry head, so im new to the android OS. i have a prepaid unlimited talk/text account.. MMS will receive but not send.. i wa that guy who carried his ipod touch and blackberry around with him.. feels nice not to have to do that.. lol
im running 2.1 update 1
couple questions..
can i update to 2.2 froyo and keep my unlock?.. i did it with program so i never got code..
why wont my MMS send? why does it receive.? my blackberry sent and recieved MMS fine.. so i know my account allows it..
i have other questions.. but ill make sepreat threads i dont want to clutter this thread with them .. thanks in advance.

Once unlocked you are unlocked. My old Vibrant went through every Rom out and stayed unlocked.
As a quick test try to go to a contact you KNOW isn't sending and change their number to +11234567890. I am not sure if that's just a T-Mobile fix or a global solution. My only other suggestion is to flash a Rom and try that out.

Flash Trigger or bi-winning from the EDT team both will resolve your problems and no worry about the unlock it will stay unlocked

many roms have seperate mms fixes. you have to read all those pages unless you can google trigger mms fix.

ok mms works.. yahhh. i didnt have WAP passwords and username set..
soo if i update phone will stay unlocked? sounds good to me..

If you update with Mini Kies to the stock Samsung 2.2 firmware you will lose root. Not sure about if it will stay unlocked.

MDN, MSID, AKEY settings?

Hi All,
I was just getting ready to flash the new rom posted. I can't get my settings from the dialer anymore? When i put in the ##778# it just calls and gets a busy signal. I'm running the 2.1 rom now. Is there some setting that i should check to get the code to work in the dialer?
Thanks for any help.
Chris
I just called Sprint and told them I accidentally messed it up performing the upgrade on their site... They had no problems reactivating my phone.

\Windows\EPST.exe or \Windows\EPST.lnk will get you to the same screen if you can't get the codes to work in the dialer.
Thanks a bunch, got em!

Try go sms pro

I use Handcent Sms, for me is better than stock app cause of notification options (i.e color of led) and it's more flexible. And it works even stock app don't.

Odp: cant send text messages
Can you send sms on any rom or at all? I had similar problem but I couldn't write at all. I had to go to my provider and they reset my settings as they were not set correctly after having my SIM suspended.

what was your solution, mine started doing this two days ago. I read there's a three day dump from ATT if you have pending messages not received yet. I through updating the radio would help which is why I'm back on here seraching.

Cant send messages.

I am on beans build 20 and just today I cant send any sms or mms messages. I tried another app too (gosms) I can get on the Internet just fine (im posting this via lte so I know I have data) anytime I go to send a message it says that the service is un available and the message will sent when the service becomes available. I need to try and fix this. Heres what ive tried so far.
Re flashing the modem
Tried a different rom (carbon everything kept force closing so I couldn't try a message)
And finally restoring a backup of beans
Nothing of those worked.
Heres what my about phone says.

hey bro, word of advice, I'd edit iut your number in that screen shot
Thanks bro. I missed that.
Well it just started working again. Maybe it was on Verizons end? But family members in the same room as me were able to send texts just fine during the time I couldn't.

Can't send picture text anymore

I know there are threads out with this same issue. But my issue is I allready had it working with a apn that required a user name and password. I rooted my galaxy and when I restarted my phone it said my galaxy loading screen it said custom on the bottom on the loading screen where it says samsung galaxy. anyways I went on to delete some bloatware and I somehow crashed google play. so I could not get into the store. I tried to reset the phone to factory specs but that does not fix my issues since it only loads the apk that I did not delete google play did not work.
So I downloaded a file from here for my i527 phone and flashed it with odin and got it back up and running. Re rooted it cant get the custom loading screen back up but I cant remember the apn I used that worked with my phone to get text messages to send and receive pictures. I know I had to enter a username and password. I know the password was password if anyone knows these straight talk to att apn please foward it to me.

Yes I tried those settings thinking about formatting phone back to factory defaults. I think the file I used to get bqck to stock after I deleted some apk that where for google play os the culprit. 8t worked before I used that file not afterwards.

After rooting did you install adblock by chance... That blocked my att phone from sending or receiving mms. Another thing is rooting itself shouldn't have altered your apn in any way, so if it changed something is wrong.since rooting does nothing more than granting you root level access, nothing at all should have changed except your knox warranty status after flashing recovery.

I did not do any of that. On straight talk it says it is hit or miss with the same phone with picture texts send and recieve. It worked before I had to reflash the phone. It did not work after reflashed the phone. Found a fix. if it don;t work all you have to do is do a factory reset till it does
