No MMS when roaming - Motorola Photon 4G

Anyone else not able to send MMS when roaming? I have full roaming data through Verizon using the browser and other apps. For some reason it won't send/receive MMS though and this is in areas where I was previously able to use MMS on both my Epic and my Evo. Any ideas would be a great help

I had the same issue at the lake. I was trying to send some pictures of my kids and it would not do it because I was roaming. However, I could email them. I was never able to figure it out.
EDIT: Like you, I was able to send a mms while roaming from the same spot with my Samsung Moment. Here is another thread to read through, but no real answers.

Do you need to add another APN for your MMS?
On o2 in the UK we have to add two apn's, one for data and the other to enable sending MMS's.

No option for addding APN on mine Ive tried pulling the MMS proxy settings out but that didnt help. Cant seem to find the right place to edit the current APN either....

Not too sure if I read correctly in another thread that adding another APN is blocked with certain networks, cannot remember if I just dreamt this or not.

I didnt have the APN setting either. The MMS isnt working over wifi.

I have the same problem with the Photon. I had no problems with my previous phone sending and receiving MMS while roaming, but I can't do either with my Photon. Sucks too because I am roaming all day at work and when people send me an MMS it doesn't even let me know because I am roaming. I usually find out at a later point while looking through Texts that someone sent a MMS.

If you're gonna get an attitude about it, then resolve your own problem, my work is done here.
It's the same as most HTC devices set the APN from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1428457 for simple web, after you do so create a new APN name it Simple MMS with the same exact parameters except for APN type at the bottom set that to mms that should solve the problem for you.
Works just fine for me on Simple. Here is the string for apn.
Put it on the mmsc space:
http://smpl.mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
Make only ONE apn for Simple. Do notbuse two like the T-Mobile has one for data and one for phone.

I gave him that one directly from simple's site, but instead of trying to troubleshoot it, he had an attitude.
By the way, not all T-Mobile users have two apn's, I only use one, lol.

Been on straight talk for over a year now, first with a sim out of a Nokia then a sim from the BYOD program. The biggest issue you may run into is some towers don't like the Pay as you go APN. I have a tower in the next town over that sometimes just wont let any web traffic through, drive 5 miles down the road, it switches towers and suddenly i'm getting 6Mbps down and 1.5Mbps up, and it's not just my note, happened to my captivate, my Infuse, my skyrocket, and my Note. My friends on a ATT LTE APN have no issues on the same tower. Other than that, it is awesome! Can't beat 45$ for some nice service and great coverage.
I use mine for tethering to my tablet, Netflix, YouTube, and my Dish Network account. I have had a problem once where i went over about 3 gigs in one month and i got throttled, i called customer support and they un-throttled me with no hassle, great customer service.
Make sure to leave out the proxy settings when you setup the APN.

It's been discussed in many other device threads that the proxy settings do more harm than good when it comes to capping the speed you get on downloading and uploading.

I am not sure if it might be in another thread but seeing as this is about straight talk I dont think it would be off topic to ask..
Do any of you all just pay the 25$ per month with no data plan? It has been advertised that with the unlimited messaging you still get picture messaging and I was able to with my captivate however since switching to the note I have not been able to download a single picture that is sent to me so I do everything by email. In the messageit just says downloading and I have yet to see something actually download. If anyone has any info on this that would be great!

I wanted to ask if you know which prepaid plan a sgh i717 from att would work better on? Straight talk or att?
I see you have yours own straight talk. Would I have to go into the phone setting to make it work or just buy a sim card, put into the phone and it works?

You'd just need a SIM card to make it work. If the SIM card is from t mobile or a different carrier then you'd need to obtain an unlock code.

Hey no liar here sorry it took so long, I've been extremely busy with school, I just sent you the email,
I didn't make this nor do I claim i did, where i got my phone flashed they use the messaging up you can download here http:// mms.flashingtools. com/, (sorry about the spaces, just delete them but the forum won't let me post it otherwise), just download it, install it like a regular apk(not system) and it should work.
I like gosms pro and switching back and forth just to send pictures was annoying me so i deleted it and just went ahead and put the custom mms settings on gosms pro, that works perfectly for me, just another alternative i suppose
Lol sorry about that, the app you sent me need to validate an account or something to work. So it's pointless for anyone else to use unless someone can find a fix/patch/crack or whatever you decide to call it lol.
Also can you please send me the settings your using for GoSMS. I tried some settings but they haven't worked for me.

Hmm I'll look into that, see if I can figure something out,
the settings I use with gosms are this ones
