MMS Square Boxes? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Okay so, I can receive MMS, but when I press download I get this box, anyone having this problem?
EDIT; for those telling me to fully wipe and stuff, I already did that.

Check and or change your apns. If it is not set up correctly it will not send/receive mms. It will receive regular text usually. Look up the thread about apns. If you cant get it to work pm me and I will send what my settings are.

Here's one thread about apn settings.

[UPDATED 5/22][AT&T DATA FIX] AT&T's HSPA+ APN's

you gave absolutely no information about your situation. What Rom are you on? What kernel? Have u checked in both those threads to see if it's an issue with anyone else? Do you use the stock sms app or third party? Did u freeze the stock sms app if you are using third party? How long has this been happening? If you don't give any details how do you expect anyone to help u resolve the issue.

[Q] SMS limit

I'm a youth pastor and send texts to around 80 students about events and things we are doing. I send mass texts to them quite often and the most annoying thing I've run into is the SMS hour limit. I can't remember if it's 100 or 160 but either way after I surpass that number within an hour (only two mass texts to my students) I then see a popup warning after every individual text. I then have to manually click yes after each warning or my messages never send. I found this thread but it doesn't seem to work...

Any suggestions?

Google Voice supports mass sms
Wow I had no idea there was a limit and I text a lot. Is this carrier specific I wonder?
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk 2
Mass texting is not the problem. There is a setting embedded in the Android OS that makes a warning popup after you reach a certain number of texts PER HOUR. It is not carrier specific it is within the Android OS settings. any other ideas?
Hmmmmm. Very interesting. I don't have the slightest clue.

Can you post the screenshot?
And which rom you are running.
I'll screenshot the next time it happens. I'm always running the most current version of tasks' AOKP ROM.

If you read the thread I linked in my OP it seems that it is a system warning and not carrier or ROM based.

I read it, i was just stating that it must be reachable either in the framework.jar or somewhere else in the system files.

Looks like it may be a go sms message... have you tried using the stock sms app?

Actually elite SMS screwed up my phone. It rebooted right after install and reset many of my ROM settings and completely disabled my home button. Had to do a full wipe/reinstall to fix everything... any ideas what happened?

[Q] Cyanogenmod 9 on S2 won't send mms. Any fix?

Alright so here is the down low.
I have a galaxy s2 with Rogers and it will send mms on the stock rom. Now I upgraded to CM9 and with the deafult apn and even with other apns I still can't send mms. Any ideas how to fix this?
Mms still exists? Wow...
I would try wiping the cache again and trying to send a message using a third party app.

Try a different modem and check your APN settings once more, just in case. Otherwise, try another ROM and see if the problem persists.

You would need to 1st enable sms by altering the build.prop settings - assuming you have root access and stuff.
The specific line to be altered would be:
ro.ril.reject.cs.ss.enabled=1
ro.ril.reject.mo.sms.enabled=1
ro.ril.reject.mo.ussd.enabled=1
This should enable messaging and should work provided your AT&T sim has the feature enabled. Not sure about MMS though-haven't tried.

They are on line 15,16,17 or so in the stock rom's build.prop file. Which rom you on? Could find it and let you know.
And if they are missing completely from the file, you can add it in anywhere. What I have noticed is, at the end of the original file, give a few spaces after the last part, feed it in, save, reset phone. And you would need to even enable the phone function - tutorials for that already on the forum.

I'm using El Diablos Rom. I added the lines but still can't send or receive. I've used Hancent sms, chompsms. I even downloaded a stock HTC messaging app because my tablet was missing one. The only thing working for me is GOSMS using the goChat option, such is ok except for the fact that people who I send to don't see my number, they see some other username that GoSms assigned to me. I guess i will live with that. THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP!!!!!

I am also on el Diablo itself. The 16th line has got the sms function. It says reject sms. By default it is set to 1.change it to 0. Should solve the issue.
And I use go sms only. The others never worked for me.

Try changing your network settings. From CDMA/lte to CDMA only.
Some have problems and some don't. It may be a network issue as many Sprint forums complain about it
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
What you need to do is go to the stock messaging app and go to the settings and uncheck auto receive mms. Then when you get a mms go into the stock messaging app and click download. That'll fix it

I'm having the same issue, where I cannot send nor receive MMS messages. I tried changing the network type and unchecking the "auto-receive" setting and using the "download" buttons in the actual message but to no avail.
If anyone has any other ideas (other than contacting Sprint) please let me know! It's strange that it only affects some users and not others.
Thank you in advance!
If you are on cm10 or 10.1 then sprint can't help you.
So don't waste your time.
You can try sending a MMS to yourself. That's one of the first things i do when i flash an aosp rom. It might hang for me 1 out of 20 MMS.

Can you describe exactly what the problem is? Is the picture just not going through at all?
MMS
I can't get MMS to work either. I flashed the unofficial cm 10.1 rom and just yesterday I flashed the cyanogenmod black 10.1 rom. Now i've tried other suggested fixes and they don't work. I downloaded go sms on both roms and i can send and receive mms, but for some reason I can't do it in the stock apps. This leads me to believe that its not an issue with the network but rather the stock app. Am I correct? I usually use go sms but I like the fact that with the stock app i can pull down the notification bar and just push reply from there and get a little pop up window.
BTW when I uncheck auto-receive it just shows me that I have a mms message but it won't download. This is the only issue I've had so far with cm 10.1. I don't want to go back to a sense rom.
Galaxy Nexus - Same MMS Problem on LTE only... 3g ok
Tried cm10, pa3, and EOS 4 all have the same issue when sending/receiving MMS while on a LTE.
Everything works great on 3g.
Compared the the APNs for EOS and the stock OTA 4.2.1 from sprint (which mms via LTE work) and they look the same.
So whats broken with all these roms?
You guys should try this. Back in the day ,pre-android era, whenever I had issues with text I would send one to myself and that would fix it! So I sent myself an mms and that fixed it for me. Also try sending it through goSMS maybe and then uninstall the app if you don't like it. Keep in mind that I am able to receive MMS through goSMS just not the stock app. Good Luck!!

I've tried all the quick and not so quick fixes offered so far including yours and none including yours work... sorry. The problem is with the ROM(s) which most assuredly are not based on the official OTA 4.2.1 from Sprint. I know this because mms works on the official OTA from sprint for either wifi, 3g, and LTE. So until the rom devs decide to fix this problem we are not going to be able to send/recieve mms on LTE.
Hmm

So you don't even get mms on 3rd party apps?... I couldn't get them on the stock app but goSMS would received them without me having to mess with any of the settings.

I use Handcent SMS & I have verizon service. Sometimes it takes like 8 tries for my phone to finally send a text message.
& sending an MMS is just out.of the question now.. I cant send pics or anything anymore. Ive tried being on wifi, ive tried not being on wifi. Its so frustrating.
I dont know a whole lot about kernels & modems.. etc. But here is what my phone is on:
Android 4.4.2
Baseband: 1545VRUFNC5
Kernel: 3.4.0 [email protected]#1
Build: KOT49H.1545VRUFNC5
Anyone having issues with sending texts or MMS TOO,?? Any ideas of what I might be able to try to get it to work??
Anyone know the MMS settings?? Like MMSC, PROXY or PORT?? For handcent, on verizon??

Stupid question probably, but do you still have the stock app installed? Have you checked the "use for all sms" setting in handcent?
I've ran into the same issue since going to 4.4.2 ... If wifi is enabled no mms will be delivered (regular sms seems fine). I've tried the safe mode trick which didn't work and neither did changing the others.xml or using Verizon APN settings.
Stock messaging, Handcent, textra and gosms... None of them seem to work without toggling wifi & resending.
Factory reset did work for 3-4 days but it's back to not working

Try uninstalling handscent. then go to stock messaging. hit home, then hold in home, long press on messaging, hit app info, then clear data.
see if MMS is working... and if it does you can try to reinstall handscent.
