MMS Problem - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Everyone!!! Just got my I-9300 in today, and shortly after, a second FedEx truck arrived with my Straight Talk Sim card.....activated my phone, and everything is working...phone calls, outbound texts, incoming calls, you name it. EXCEPT MMS. I am getting MMS, both texts and picture messages from all phones that AREN'T verizon, and I just ported my number over from Verizon today.....is this normal? Why would I be able to only receive texts and picture messages from non-verizon phones? Any solutions?
Thanks

[Q] [help] Atrix not recieving incoming calls

Hey all,
I'm having this issue randomly ever since I took a trip to Chicago this past weekend. My Atrix (only rooted) stopped receiving incoming calls from certain numbers. I've tried with a friend's AT&T iPhone and it works fine. But from my Verizon work cell I cannot call my Atrix.
When an incoming call comes in, the phone rings for half a second and then goes back to my home screen. No missed call log or anything. Immediately when the call comes in the phone's signal drops out and a few seconds later reconnects.
Everything else works just fine, SMS and data still smooth.
Anyone else have this issue? It's strange and pretty annoying.
Upon further investigation I have found that I can make and receive calls to those Verizon numbers if they are deleted from my contacts!
So Verizon + Contact = FAIL

No voice call if receiving text?

Has anyone noticed an issue with voice calls going directly to voice-mail if they come through at the same time as sending or receiving texts?
Background:
I have G-voice installed and running strictly as my voicemail service. This works out well for me as it will send me an email notification of a missed call whereas without it if I have no coverage and someone calls me I would never know about it.
I am a Firechief for an oil refinery and I use the phone as my fire call-out pager too. Its rather important that I get my calls.
I have noticed in the past that people would tell me they called but it went to my voicemail. After installing and using G-voice for voice mail, sure enough when they told me that, I would get a missed call notification from G-voice.
We use a call-out system called Send Word Now that will send me a voice call and a text message together when activated. Apparently is at exactly the same time because when I tested it I would only ever get the text mesage and a missed call notification.
My Question:
Has anyone else noticed this and figured out why? It would seem that with a 4G connection and all the data bandwidth available the phone should have no problem doing both. In fact, I can get plenty of text mesaages or incoming calls if I am already talking on the phone.
Just as an update to my own thread in case anyone searches this oddity. The messaging center today informed me that they know of the issue and ALL phones and providers will act the same way. As in, if you get an oncoming call at the same time you are sending or receiving a text the call will go straight to voicemail.

No MMS or data! (Help)

Hey guys.
So my V10 is originally from T-Mobile. It is factory unlocked. I have a Cricket sim card in right now and I can make calls, receive texts, send texts, and receive calls. But for some odd reason I don't have access to mobile data and MMS. I tried setting up an APN or what have you. But that has gotten me nowhere. Also tried to contact Cricket directly but to no avail. Any help would be great.

[Q] Galaxy S5 not receiving messages from iPhone

So last night I was texting my girlfriend just fine and we started spamming each other emojis and my SMS was working fine. This morning we did the spam thing again and now my S5 will not receive text messages from her but she receives mine perfectly fine. I didn't blacklist her number or anything. She's not sending I iMessages either. I've had 2 friends text me that have iPhones and I've received their messages just fine.
I'm on the carrier Sprint in the US and my S5 is rooted running CosmicOS with android 7.1.2 I don't know what else to do. Does sprint have a spam filter for text messages?
