Well I m on Floyo 0.15 and had some issues with MMS sending/receiving.On stock 2.1 SE ROM when you have Mobile Data OFF,our X8s still automatically use GPRS to handle mms messages.On Floyo and other ROMS you need to turn it ON which may result in additional charges from your carrier if you don't use a prepaid internet data plan.
So what do you do in this case you may ask! Well if you only use WIFI for internet and still wanna use MMS you should customize APN Settings.
First google you carrier's APN settings for MMS and set it up manually.Be carefull to not use capital letters on some fields!
Then delete every other APN settings leaving Mobile Data ON all the time and Reboot!
This way you can MMS technology without any fear of additional internet charges. ;-)
APN Settings can be found in WIRELESS ->MOBILE NETWORKS->APN menu in any custom ROM!
Hope I helped someone here!
Cheers and enjoy your phones!

Ah, yes, killing all other possible internet connections. It will get the job done, but if we ever want to use broadband connection again, we'll have to configure it. Wouldn't it be easier to simply install APNdroid?

You can have 2 APN's, one with only MMS and one with both and swith between them.

just sent request to your network provider. they will send the setting and your phone automatically install it. that's what I do when requesting for TuneTalk APN.
i ran into similar problem in my Mini pro. i tried to have 1 apn too only for mms but still can not get it to work.
more details in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13339868#post13339868
basically, my solution is to install quick settings from market, use both APN (internet and mms) and disable mobile data using q.settings.
i am not sure how qsettings work, but it doesnt work by adding mess lines in the APN. and zap, no internet, yes mms
anyway, hope this might help others with the same problem
cheers
ps: i did not mean to oot, i know this is x8 thread, but just as i said above, might help

Thanks for the guidance. After I installing "quick setting" application, I'm finally successful sending MMS from my custom ROM X8
Glad to know that it works for you in x8!
ps: a bit becareful when you turn on/off wifi. in my case, 1st time i use it, when i turn off wifi, the 3g mobil turn on by itself. since they (wifi toggle and 3g mobile data toggle) are in the same box. just pay attention to 3g data toggle after u turn on/off your wifi. if it goes back on, just switch it off again and your good to go .
for me, it was just that one time though. after that, 3g data is always off no matter what i do with the wifi. i toggle 3g mobile data back on again only when i need it

go here and set your phone setting, and choose Maxis Mobile Internet + MMS, and the go to APN settings, "APN Settings can be found in WIRELESS ->MOBILE NETWORKS->APN" delete other APNs, just leave Maxis 2G MMS on your phone. You need to Data Enable to sent and receive MMS.
This work on me.

Thanks for the heads-up, have the exact same problem, when I turned on my mobile traffic, the provider charged me regardless if I have MMS or not.
MMS is only received when the data traffic is on, however.

Hello guys I think I have a problem. After installing this (CyanogenMod 7.2-cooper-KANG-RC0-Android 2.3.7) my phone's data capabilities like 3g is not working anymore.
I am using the baseband S5830DXKT5 (2.3.6) from SIngtel. However, after flashing (before I install cm 7.2) I tested the 3g and I connected to the internet and it was fine. But when I install this ROM, my data capabilities fail.
I have the proper internet settings that my network provided me.
I have a signal and Messaging works. I can also browse the internet through wifi.
Help?

Did you manually enter the APN settings and press the circle ?
No, the settings was already there. I tried to manually change it but the parameters are already the same as what people in my country suggested.
The circle is already toggled.

im using CM7.2 as well but does not have issues.
Since CM 7.2 there is an additional settings included in the Wireless & networks
1.Mobile Networks > Network Preferences
> now there is an option to select WCDMA only, WCDMA Preferred etc.
> ensure you select WCDMA Preferred if you want 3G

Found this in the other tread.
I had tried it and it still doesnt work.
I also read the whole tread and to no avail, my data connection still does not work.
Ive tried using different baseband versions and different roms.
Whatever baseband I use, the 3g and data connection works. However, once I install any rom there is, Ive tried three (Kang, Ice Cream Sunday, CyanoAce), I just lose 3g and data connection.
can anyone help?
Now basically i also had the same problem... Intially wen i flashed CM version my DATA nor 3G working.. Later called up my svc provider they told to delete the OLD APN and he guided me thru the whole process of putting new APN.. Viola a restart my DATA came back May be u can try this once...
This was an issue for Telcel in Mexico when the upgrade to 2.3 came to Galaxy Ace, the fix was changing the Radio file (to a latin american one) but in this case is all zipped and i don't know if this can help actually.
Just a stab in the dark, try turning on data roaming... worked for me... with Grif's CM 7.1 with an unlocked Galaxy Ace not running it's native SIM. Worth a shot?
Maybe its your APN setting
If you're using globe, they have 3 or 2(not sure) different APN for postpaid and prepaid subscriber.
for postpaid I think its "internet.globe.com.ph"
for prepaid its "http.globe.com.ph"

Can you explain further? I think this maybe the issue because my unit was not bought here in our country. It was bought by my dad in another region.

wow this actually worked.
thanks a lot man!
---------
so for people the will encounter this kind of problem in the future, here is what apparently happened.
Globe (our Network Provider) sets the default APN to the postpaid instead of the prepaid one when you install new ROMS.
to think that this may be this simple. ive researched changing CSCs to flashing different basebands and roms.
case closed!
No problem. Glad I helped.

actually i am on 2G..so there's no additional setting for that. trying to figure something on google. another hit and trial solution is data wipe and factory reset..but i want to keep it as a last resort..coz if it doesnt work..i'll end up deleting all my apps for nothing!! am not rooted yet!

Hi there! yesterday i finally took the plunge and installed the resurrection ics rom v. 2.5.3 (jelly bean transitions) on my S2 gt-i9100. so far everything has been working wonderfully, except that i cant connect to the mobile data network (im on sasktel btw).
i can send and recieve texts, as well as make calls, but i cannot use the internet unless im on wifi. the little H+ logo does not appear at all on the notification bar. any ideas of what may be causing this and how to fix it? thanks!!!
well, u'll have to add the acces point configuration of ur carrier (sorry for the bad translate, i think that it's not call like that, but something like so)
u need to ask to ur carrier all the parameters and add it ur self
u can find where to add them in config-->more-->mobile network names of point of acces-->menu-key-->add

Hello all,
Im running the latest Omega rom and Ive noticed that Whatsapp refuses to work over data (3G) connection even if other application are not so picky. Whatsapp works as supposed with wifi connection, Please help. Several people asked this over the internet, but nobody answered.

I had the same problem not only with whatsapp but also with viber etc. I fixed it by creatin my APN settings manually.
Settings/Mobile Network/Connection Settings than tap home buttons left key / New APN
you can ask APN settings to your cell provider.
Usually it's not the cause of Whatsapp but your provider blocking it.
Many (if not most) providers are either incapable or unwilling to use transparent packet inspection (not necessarely Layer-7) and rely on the phone to have a Proxy server configured in the APN.
Interestingly exactly this proxy is usually not even given in the configuration details.
Some providers (such as mine) even attempt to do their bandwith throttling via the proxy. I don't complain since I don't use it =)
But other applications are ok with this default configuration. And Whatsapp in my HTC phone worked ok on 3G data with default settings...
later edit - found the solution 4 the problem, when flashed the new omega rom, it put all the APN profiles my provider has, including some ****ty MMS and WAP APNs. After I deleted those and left only the Internet APN, things got back in normal.

I too had a problem in whatsaap with my Galaxy SIII - O2 germany network. Whatsapp was not working on mobile net but was super fine on wifi. I restored APN to default then it again fine.
Whatsapp application problem
Hi all,
I am using samsung galaxy s duos.I am unable to send messages through whatsapp when I am using aircel network,other networks it is working fine.Is that the problem with aircel n/w or whatsapp application.If any suggestions pls give me replies......http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/confused.gif
Also had a problem with WhatsApp messages not being delivered when on 3G but they would on Wifi. I thought it was something to do with droidwall but the resetting off APN settings makes sense.
I shall try that and hopefully it works.
Okay resetting the APN's did not work.
I am running Omega Rom and Jkay but this happened when I ran stock as well.
On 3G messages will sometimes come through immediately, sometimes not. They will always come through on Wifi. They will also come through if I open Whatsapp. Not sure if it is ISP related but when I had a Nokia on same ISP I never had this problem.
Does anyone know if something in Droidwall would be blocking this?
Thanks!
I was having problems since yesterday with my phone. Even not having the S3, one quick look here and found the solution. Thanks.
