I have several txt msgs sent to me with pics / MMS - and instead of displaying pic, there is a download button , I click download and get an error message saying "download of message was unsuccessful"
I've had it re-sent - rebooted and tried to download multiple times = nothing.
Any ideas of what is wrong?

I would suggest re-doing the MMS settings anyway. As sometimes they can become corrupt without you doing anything. Also, MMS only works on mobile data, it won't work through WiFi, so make sure you have mobile data enabled.
Check mms settings and enable mobile data to receive mms-

Changing the mode from gsm to umts doesn't matter. Your sms function should still work. You can change this mode by going to system setting press more than mobile network.
Just factory restore your phone from settings. Make sure you backup your data first.
Hope this helps.

check for your sms center number in sms settings. mostly its messed up. Call up you customer care and verify your sms center number
Thank You

Thank you for your quick answer,
unfortunate it did not work. I tried the sim card in an other phone and it did not work there either so it´s the sim card that´s the problem, apparently very unusual according to my service provider. Thy will send me a new sim card and that will take care of the problem.
Thank you

I have now tested the sim card in another phone and it did not work to send sms only recive.
Got a reply from Sammy. They said go to message settings and input the carrier SMS number which they provided to me. Did so and everything now works.

So the problem is either the sim card or your network provider.

HELP PLEASE! This is really annoying but I can't send pictures. All it does is it just says sending... then when I tried turning off WIFI I couldn't go to any site cause it says that I don't have data connection. Is there a way to fix this? If there's a post to fix this could you please post it here.
There is no fix because mms will only send over a mobile data connection and not over WiFi

Go to your Messaging App settings and make sure you got this settings check in
In Multimedia message(MMS) settings
GROUP MESSAGING
AUTO RETRIEVE
CREATION MODE TO FREE
MMS ALERT
In Push message CHECK IN
In Cell broadcast (CB) Settings
CB ACTIVATION CHECK IN
CHANNEL CONFIGURATION TO ALL CHANNELS
SEE IF THAT WORKS FOR YOU.
I have the same problem and after doing the changes it worked and now I can send/received/download MMS Messages.
ALSO CHECK YOUR MAIN CONNECTION SETTINGS UNDER "MOBILE NETWORKS" "Access Point Names" "Straight Talk" THE "APN TYPE" SHOULD READ "default,supl,mms" I THINK THIS ONE IS IMPORTANT TO GET TO DOWNLOAD.
Try it and let me know...
Good Luck!!!! :laugh::laugh:

Then you should be ok. If not then you need to go to a AT&T store to get it fixed.

same problem here in orlando, mms on note3 and s3 will try to send wheel just keeps spinning and will say failed, but the person I sent mms to will get message 5 times, I am on boost, apn 32030
Just to update. I found out that Google voice was causing my problem. Don't know why though. On my old HTC evo 4G I never had this problem with Google voice.
Sent from my SM-N900P using xda app-developers app
Edit: Since disconnecting Google voice from my account I am now able to receive mms, but am still having the issue where when I send an MMS the message will send but my phone will show that it failed and repeatedly sends the message. Using stock messaging app.
I am having issues with my SMS & MMS messaging, ever since I did the update on my phone.
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

I finally had to remove Handcent from the phone. Reg app works now.
How do I clear the data on messaging?? & yes I still have the stock messaging app installed. & yes handscent is set to be used for all messages.
I cant send an MMS, with WiFi on or with it off..
I know that putting in the MMSC , PROXY & PORT settings may not help.. but I just wanna try anyways. So does anyone know what they are supposed to be?? It never hurts to try.. right??

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.
