I'm not sure if this is on here or not, but, when if fist got this i unlocked it and wasnt able to get any pictures along with sending them. On top of that i wasnt even able to use my data anywhere to access the internet when it was saying 3G. So after just looking around i remembered my HD7 had a app i found on the HTC section called "Connection Setup". So i decided to look to see if it was still on the market and it was and i downloaded then ran that app and it fixed the data problem i was having. So if any one has ever encountered the same problem with T-Mobile (might work with other GSM companys also) just run that app and you can use your data and get MMS and stuff.

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.
I am in the US and have a international galaxy s2 on AT&T...My phone is fully rooted, and I am currently running Batista70 FOXHOUD EDITION 2.1 but i cant seem to get my mms on a consistant basis....I have tried several roms so I am pretty sure it isnt that, I can send mms and have a great 3g signal but most of the time I cant recieve my mms...I can browse the internet and download from the market just fine but there again I cant seem to get the mms to recieve...It seems like on a fresh rom install i get the mms fine but then after a day or so I go back to not being able to recieve one at all...I have tried different apn settings and have made sure I am on the right AT&T data plan (HSDPPB) as mentioned in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1109983) and I still cant get anything consistant on RECIEVING! 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.
Hey guys, first of all, the LeeDroid Honeycomb + Phone is an AMAZING rom! The fact that they were able to allow phone calls & text messages on Honeycomb is nothing short of amazing (Since it was not designed for phones at all). I did however stumble onto something.
I had been using the HTC Flyer 3g with my AT&T account and I got this message:
"AT&T Free Msg: Your data service has been restricted due to SIM Swapping with a Data Connect Device. Please call 1(800)-331-0500 to discuss available plan options."
The internet, SMS and MMS worked perfectly for the first two days I had it, then AT&T cut it off. Has any one dealt with this before? I called customer service and they said because this device isnt a phone, that their system would not allow it to use the internet. Phone calls still work and so do regular text messages, but no MMS and no internet.
Would Flashing to a different radio cause them to recognize this device as something else? Is there a way around it? Am I just an idiot?
Greatly appreciate the work you did LeeDroid! This is by far the most comprehensive and bugless custom rom I've ever loaded!
Different radio isn't going to do anything. They are probably reading the IMEI number, which is not changeable.
I don't think you will be able to use this device on a phone plan.

Hey Aluthier:
Did your Flyer work on 3G, or was it just connecting on edge?
Thanks a lot!

The companies do this because they have different data calling plans, the thing is that they will be able to identify by the device ID, i think they have cancelled this so that you buy a "Internet Sim" this is nothing to do with the ROM i dont think
So I hope there isn't already a ton of threads for this. I look around and found nothing, anyways I have a Samsung Galaxy S Vibrant rooted to ICS passion 13.1 and it uses the 3.1.10_ICS_KissYum_yum_good #1 Kernel. I rooted this phone from Froyo 2.2 down to Eclir then to CM7 and then ICS.
Anyways I think that is enough info but the issue I have is I cannot send or receive pictures via text. I used to be able to and I know the plan for Tmo supports it but even if I try to send one to myself all it does is say 'sending message'. I never get one in my inbox and it never gives the time of when it was delivered, or sent out. When someone else sends one to me, it shows the size of the file with a little button that says Download, next to it. Even if i turn wifi on and connect to my router then hit 'download' it doesn't do anything. I don't have the Data plan but I don't think that would cause the issue would it?
I wanted to know if I am the only one having this issue and if I am not smart enough to see the issue it if it is just a bug in general. I recently figured out how to take screen shots so I can provide those to help my vague description.
I will work on getting those. I would like to have this fixed if I can in case my family sends me pictures.
Thanks.
To send and recieve MMS you have to turn on data transfer.
Mms will not work over wifi. It needs the carrier data accessible

So i looked and i guess there was a thread about an SMS error describing my issue. And the person just replaced his SIM card and it worked. I guess if it is cheap/free i will try that.
I have an unlocked Xperia Z2 tablet with ATT. The data plan works perfectly, and the tablet has its own phone number. The IMEI number is that of a phone and tablet so I have to pay a higher charge for the line and it supposedly has unlimited calls and messaging.
Here's the problem though. All of the apps that come with the device which could conceivably be used to send an SMS message or make a phone call are Verizon exclusive and require a contract with Verizon to use. I attempted to install message or phone apps, but the Google Play Store sees it as a tablet and not a phone and won't provide those and I'm unsure if any apk files would work around it. I don't need to be able to make phone calls, but I do need to be able to send text messages to the tablet and not to any other device. Simply spoofing the number isn't going to be enough. It has to have its own unique number. I know that the hardware is supposed to be capable of doing that, but I can't seem to get anything on it that will work.
What are my options? I know once I get it properly rooted I can delete those apps, but how do I get them replaced?
Also, something I'm curious about. The only 4G bands this is tablet gets on the AT&T network are H++. Why doesn't it go any higher for the latest high end tablet?
EDIT: I used this tool(I'm not allowed to link anything here, even though I was allowed to link in a previous post?) to download the APK for handcent and then moved it to the tablet and installed from there. It had no problem installing, but when it asked to be made default it got stuck in a loop trying to allow it. After I eventually selected to skip it said certain features won't be available until it is default. (I hated the whole default thing that was added in 4.4. On my phone it keeps me from using multiple messaging apps properly) and I was able to SUCCESSFULLY send a text! I checked the phone and it was send as an SMS message from the phone number of the tablet. I was also able to reply without any problems.
The only issue now is declaring the default messaging app, which I don't appear able to do. The Verizon message app is the default and probably locked itself as such. ugh. Anyone have any suggestions?
Oh, and it told me "Voice calling not supported" so I don't know if the tablet itself is incapable of making calls or if it's another bug introduced by Verizon.
