I've had a lot of issues with mms on JB roms. I been searching the forms extensively but none of the suggestions have worked for me. I have no issues on ICS, so I know my APN settings are fine, but on JB it's been hit or miss. I can typically receive mms pictures if I uncheck Auto-Retrieve option in the Message app settings, but I haven't had much success sending them. I'm personally just using other apps (Twitter, Instagram) to share pics until the official JB source is released.

Help with messaging

Hey guys somethings wrong with my aria, I don't receive text messages and my market apps don't update, but sometimes ill just get messages randomly but with like 12 of them at once! People can receive them from me but I don't receive....its annoying, also it will sometimes receive them after I reboot the phone. The reason I know that my phone is like this is cause my friends told me that I wasn't replying to them. So I borrowed an old iphone and used that for a week and got all my text messages just fine and had no problem :/ does anyone have a solution? And is this also happening to other people?

[Q] Not Getting Any Text Messages?

Hey Everyone,
So I've been running ICS alpha 2 since its been released and all of a sudden i stopped receiving text messages? Does anyone know the fix to this, i think i've tried everything except flashing a GB rom? Did anyone else have this problem is is it just me?
Thankful for any help given
You didn't freeze any text apps did you?....if your using a third party app like handcent make sure its set to defult...and stock message app just leave the app alone and turn off notifications....make sure u didn't freeze anything by accident ..or uninstall the text app and reinstall....not sure bud...

Weird, awful, frustrating notifications problem...

Hey there! I've been looking a lot for this but haven't found anything xS... I flashed Kamarush minicmsandwich rom and it's awesome but since then, each time I get a notification, its app crashes (i.e. You've got a new Gmail - Gmail stopped Working) same with most apps... The worst being missed calls...each time I get a missed call notification, phone crashes like 6 times then I lose my cell phone signal. Hope you can help! (I'm new so I can't post on the ROM's thread to report this and other bugs I've found T_T)

Im pretty sure u havent done a full wipe during flashing coz many other have used Kamarush's ROM successfully !
Thanks guys! I remember doing a full wipe but clearly I did something wrong xS... I reflashed it again after making a full wipe and it's great! Even faster than before .

Why is MMS quality so different from iPhone?

Hi guys,
I'm new here and have been looking around to try and get my question answered but haven't quite had any luck.
I'm made the move from iPhone to Android and absolutely loving it. I'm sure we're all aware of the MMS issue? I have a couple of questions regarding this.
1) When sending MMS's from iPhone to iPhone and iPhone to Android, the picture quality is obviously much much better. Why is this? Why the limitations? It's definitely not the carrier.
2) I'm aware of Go SMS and all those 3rd party apps, but is there a mod or "fix" to the resolve the issue? I'm currently using LiquidSmooth RC7 and love the jelly bean messages app.
Apologies for the long post!!!
Thanks

What messaging app are you using?
When i first made the move from iphone to android I was using Go sms and Hancent. Both had this problem but after switching back to the stock messaging app, havent had the problem.
Using Liquid Smooth ROM which has stock jelly bean messaging app.
I stuck my sim in my iPhone again and a friends Windows phone and MMS that are sent are way better quality. Only on Android it's shocking... just curious as to why exactly.

Hmmm that could be the reason why. Try using Stock SMS if you can. if not then I'm out of ideas.
Yeah already tried that. Still nothing. Apparently Cyanogen Mod has a settings menu where u can change the outgoing MMS size. I'm sure there's something in the code that can be changed but not sure where. Will wait for CM10 and see if that changes anything.
Thanks for the suggestion though.

Need to change the compression level of the MMS i guess.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Yeah, would be good if there was an option to set the limit. At the moment it's at like 40-60kb. Ridiculous. All other phones have a much higher size.
Sent from my GT-I9300
Yeah its a shame really. Only working solution I've seen is to tell go sms to preserve image quality and stop compression.

Actually it is the carrier, when you are sent an MMS, the carrier sends you a SMS telling you to get it.
Your phone then connects to their server and passes a user agent string. The carrier then works out what's best to give you.
If they haven't got around to adding you user agent, often they go for worst case scenario.
Some apps allow you to have a custom user agent (messaging, not web) which should help.
The other possibility is the iPhones were using iMessage instead.
+1 for iMessage. Why use other between two iDevice?

Op what country are you from mate? Regardless of what other people say it is true MMS on android is shocking so i use whatsapp it is a multi platform app and you can send 12sec vids and pictures via your data and it doesn't cost you anything extra. Only costs a few kbs of your data. You can also use kik. But i wish the mms quailty was better to be honest.
I don't see how its the carrier when the same carrier on other phones don't have an issue.
I'm from Australia mate. Yeah started using watsapp a while ago then deleted it.. but other people need to be on it too don't they?

Yes.
But it still might be the carrier, since iPhone to iPhone probably doesn't send mms, but uses imessage instead. That's why there is no limitations in picture size.
I personally prefer using Line. It's free (whatsapp costs 1.99 USD a year for "server costs")
iPhone to iPhone worked even before iMessage was out. Pics that were sent were delivered in good quality.
I've found my solution for the time being. Facebook messenger has added SMS/MMS threading into its app now. Very seamless and convenient. I've tested sending MMS to phone numbers without them having a Facebook account (or not being Facebook friends) and the pics get delivered in great quality.
Thank u all for your suggestions

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 was having issues as well that were resolved with a clean install of 10.1 4.2.2 (2/15) build. In fact, no issues what so ever, try that.
