I currently have an LG optimus one on koodo, with no data plan and unlimited messaging. When I try to send or receive a picture via mms it will not work, and will hang on either uploading or downloading, even when on wifi. I am using cm7 with stock SMS app. Any idea why mms doesn't work?

MMS not activated? Talk to your operator.

For some odd reason I am not able to receive or send text messages. I tried using Handscent and the app that sends your messages to an email account but so far and no results. I am using a Madaco 3.1 custom rom with the most updated radio (63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26). Also I do not have a data or texting plan and my network is ATT in the USA.
Thx.
Im not sure about mms ... but for sms check in the settings if you have sms service center number in there....
Yes, there is a sms service number.
I'm having an odd issue that I cannot figure out.
I'm running ICS Passion v12 on my T-Mobile Vibrant. I was on stock 2.2, went back to 2.1 with Odin then flashed CWM. I then wiped (data, cache, dalvic) and installed CM7, wiped again and flashed ICS.
Everything on ICS is working except sending SMS. I can place & receive calls, receive texts, but every time I try to send one I get a "Message Not Sent" notification. I don't have a data plan with the phone but do have unlimited SMS. Does this ROM try to push SMS out through data?
Here is what I've tried. Rebooting, power off & battery pull, wipe and reflashing the ICS ROM multiple times, still no luck. I tried to flash CM7 again to see if I can send messages there but the ICS recovery wouldn't take the zip file. Tried to restore stock and it had an error with the boot image.
Does anyone have any ideas on what I should do?
Update: I entered *#*#4636#*#* in my dialer and went selected Phone Info. Under SMSC it was black. I selected Refresh and am getting a "refresh error" message. Do any of you have something listed there?
Solved Replaced T-Mobile SIM card and I can now send SMS.
Looks like sending picture messages is working, still just having the problems sending SMS.
Are you on simple setting? Go to wireless network and access point and see.

SOLVED
Issue Solved
All I needed was a new T-Mobile SIM card.
Android 2.3 and up uses PDU mode for sending SMS. My old SIM card couldn't handle the upgrade to 4.0.3. It was working on stock because it is only 2.2.
MMS not working
So you were able to send MMS? I upgraded to Passion v12 *BETA* and now I can't send or receive MMS. Everything else works including SMS

Yes MMS always worked, as long as data is turned on. It may be an issue similar to mine where the SIM card is bad. T-mobile just handed me one free and it was a 5 minute phone call to activate it.
Check your APN settings. I had same issue. Google T-Mobile apn settings and compare. This is what mine was missing: MMS Proxy: 261.155.165.050 MMS Port: 8080 Works great now.

Might be a sim card issue. I will try to replace with a new one and then let you know if that was the problem. Thanks!

Alright so it turned out that the MMS app wasn't resizing the photos, so they were being rejected because it was too large. I cropped a photo to test that out and it worked. APN settings are configured too. Anyway, I ended up getting Handcent. Wayyyyy better haha.
Anyone else having this issue? I can send MMS just fine when i get a data signal. Also calls and SMS are working great over wifi calling....just cant seem to send a MMS.
I use Handcent and have no problem.
Have this issue too
I have this issue as well, when WiFi Calling is activated I cannot send or receive MMS messages.
I'm still completely stock.

Tried handcent with no luck. Still can't send or receive MMS.
I have an s3 and also have this issue - anyone find a solution?
Google a little bit. Sounds like this is a known issue for T-Mobile on many different devices. :-(

Unfortunately this is an issue, but I don't know if the blame can be placed on TMobile, as the stock messaging app will allow me to send an MMS over WIFI. The reason being is that MMS is sent using the carrier's data connection. With the stock app, while using wifi, it disconnects from the wifi connection just long enough to send the MMS. However, when using a third party, it does not register and therefor isn't sent until you disconnect from the wifi or resend through the stock app.
Works for me bro. But then again, my data is always on...

This is a pretty crap issue.
I have no damn signal in my house (even though I really should), so Wifi Calling is a godsend (even though it likes to randomly turn off).
But I've got five MMS pending download because of a group text, and I can't reply. I would have to go up the street to get them.
I'm on Verizon and have the same problem. Only solution to sending and receiving is to clear data, but have to do that every time i send or receive an MMS on stock. tried Go SMS and Handcent, and get the same issues.

This worked for me at work and at home. Just need to do this for every wifi access point you use. I found this on Rootzwiki.
Long press on your Wifi connection
Press "Modify Network"
Scroll down to IP Settings and change that from "DHCP" to "Static"
Scroll down to DNS and enter the following information:
DNS 1 - 8.8.4.4
DNS 2 - 8.8.8.8
Press Save
REBOOT YOUR PHONE! This is important.
I would love to be able to send SMS through my WiFi because I get crap signal in my room.... is there a WiFi calling app for att?

Running cm7.2 official rom and wondering if rom auto sends and receives mms. If not is there a kernel update or other update I can flash to fix this. I would really prefer it auto send and receive. Thanks in advance.
what do you mean by auto send and receive? all ROMs receive MMS and SMS automatically when they are sent to that phone. i'm not quite sure what you are asking
I have a mot bravo running an unofficial cm7 build, when sending or receiving mms, mobile data is automatically turned on and off. This way my data is off so I don't have to worry about usage but still receive mms.
MMS and normal data use different APN settings.

Yes they do, I'm trying to say that on my moto bravo, when sending a MMS message, I attach the picture to text and then hit send. After hitting send the mobile data icon appears in the status bar and the message w/ pic is sent. When someone sends me a pic, my mobile data icon appears automatically and the pic is ready when I view the message. On the atrix 4g, this doesn't happen. If I want to send a pic I have to turn on mobile data before making the MMS so that when I hit send, it is sent out. Also, if someone sends me a pic, when opening the message there is a button labeled download that I must hit after making sure my mobile data is turned on for pic to be downloaded. I like the way the bravo ROM handles the MMS better.
I hope this is clear enough now.
I got my G3 from verizon onto Cricket (AT&T), it makes calls, gets H+ everything works except for the SMS and MMS, I have tried to use handcent, gopro, textra, and none of this works. Is there a work around for this issue?
