Hello,
My GS2 suddenly stopped being able to receive sms. It can send sms and mms and receive mms. I can receive a plain text converted to mms by simply adding a subject. It's happened once before but I'm not sure what fixed it.
I'm running the latest SHOstock2 now. Though I had a previous version of it when this issue first occurred. Using the stock message app. Previously when it happened I did a backup of the rom, flashed a different rom and all my unreceived texts came pouring in. I restored the backup and sms was working again. I thought if it was an error with the software that a restore would cause the problem to remain but it didn't, until now.
None of the apn settings have been touched after flashing. Called ATT and they were useless. Can't even receive system sms.
I'm going to flash a different rom but I want to figure out what may have caused this issue so it doesn't repeat.

I heard people take their sim out and put it in another phone then place it back in their phone. It was going around the shostock2 thread
I just installed Mystic Glories rom and the issue persists. I'll flash a different kernel since they both use the same. If that doesn't work I'll try the Nexus rom that I used last time. If that fails then I'll get a different sim card. Bleh.

This seems to be similar to the issue people have been having with the latest AOKP.
That makes me thinks it's possibly something to do with the AT&T network. If they don't have to tell you, they won't.
Oh, and please tell me your posting from your S3 for giggles...

I installed the latest Siyah and still no dice. I installed the latest SuperNexus and just like before, when I installed SuperNexus, the SMSes all came in. Still don't know exactly what caused it or if this is just another coincidence but I'm going to stick with SuperNexus and cross my fingers. I don't have another phone which this sim card fits.
Thank you for your time gents. If anyone else has more information on this issue it would still be appreciated. And I wouldn't be surprised if it was a network issue as well.

While you are on super nexus go into your APN settings and see Which APN is being used, then also write down all the fields that are filled in. Then the next time when you try another ROM make sure either the SAME APN setting is being used or that all the settings inside match what you had working. I have seen different ROMs have some different variations of apns. For instance I believe the old WAP.Cingular APN is default on CM10 but I usually change it for the a different APN setting. Basically what I am saying is even though you haven't touched it ever it COULD BE defaulting to a different APN. Hope you figure it out.

Apn it's for data only. It has nothing to do with sending and receiving text messages which uses the voice side of our service.
I personally think it is either at&t or something with Samsung's latest releases but searching online it has happened to other people in different forums so I'm leaning towards the network side.

I thought and I guess I am wrong here that for MMS to send/receive it has to do it over the data connection? If you have the data connection off and only on WiFi it won't send/receive? I know I have had to add a MMS APN for it to work for me in the past. I have 1 APN set just for ATT data, and one for MMS. This is usually how I set IP my apns over the past year or so:
My APN Test Settings
APN #1
NAME: ATT HSPA+
APN: phone
MMS port: 80
APN TYPE: default,internet,broadband
APN#2
ATT MMS
APN: wap.cingular
USERNAME: [email protected]
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS PROXY: wireless.cingular.com
MMS PORT: 80
MNC: 410
MCC: 310
APN TYPE: default,mms,supl
I could be wrong here but now I am intrigued. If I don't have the MMS APN I listed above and ONLY have one for data I will not receive MMS (cannot remember if I could receive regular text though). Correct me if I am wrong here but it is how I have always done it.

That is my understanding as well. Sms is sent over the voice cell network, mms over data. I've never been able to send mms over Wi-Fi.

Thanks for the clarification. I also just reread the op and see he can send/receive MMS okay but not SMS. So ya it shouldn't be an APN issue.
Sent from My SGH-I777 Running Spiderman Themed AOKP or Spiderman Themed CM10
What happened is most likely your SMS number got messed up. This happened to me a while ago. Not sure how you get into the hidden settings in your rom. to check it but it should be
+1 312-314-9810. If this gets messed up the issue can fix it self after a few wipes and formats of the system partition. I would search on how to get into the service menu and make sure it is correct.

Yes that could also be the issue but recently that has not been the case. Putting the SIM in another phone them send and receive a message from that phone will trigger all the messages missed. Put the SIM back in the sgs2 after sms it should work fine again.

I got struck by this problem a week and a half ago. Then all of a sudden, all of my missing texts came through about 3 days later. Now, the problem has struck again. I haven't been able to receive a text since Saturday morning. As of Monday midday, I still am in a text blackout.
I went to the wiki posted in this thread and checked my service number. Everything looks AOK. I've been running ShoStock2 v5.4. On Sunday afternoon, I did a full wipe and installed ShoStock2 v6.0. I was hoping that a full wipe would fix this issue; but no luck.
I *think* that I might have an old AT&T phone somewhere that I can try and toss the SIM in to. Very frustrated.

Pour you SIM in another phone and send a text and receive one. Should see all your old ones come in after. After I did that then went to 6.0 and haven't had the issue yet again.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk 2
Hopefully the issue won't happen again. I put the phone on basic CM10 and no issues so far. It seemed to only affect ShoStock2 or the issue still exists but just hasn't recurred.The phone is what my girlfriend uses and she's not savvy enough to even know what any of the options do so she doesn't mess or change with most settings that could result in this. I'll check the other resources if it crops up again. And her SIM doesn't fit my GS3 to switch out. Thanks for posting the links and details gents.
Tonight at 7, with no changes, my phone received all of my messages from the last 3 days. We'll see if the issue is done.

Hey guys, I'm running Aokp and randomly lost data connection today. Everything has been working great and I love the ROM. Cell connection is fine but my data connection just stopped working. I'm coming off of a clean wipe and rom installation. I've checked my data settings and don't see anything wrong. Any idea what could be the problem. Thanks!

How are your speeds? Mine are extremely slooooowwwww
I also having trouble with data connections. Tried the fix above and have only edge network. Has anyone been able to get 3g? I am running Task's AOKP and everything was fine until this morning sometime.
Worked like a charm. Thanks guys.
I had the same issues starting today (dallas/fort worth area) and the above apn setting changes got my data back. Speeds are lower than before but not by a whole lot, getting 3.2Mbps down instead of hovering around 4 or so before. Upload is horrid though, 228kbps now...but hey it works again
On AOKP, the APN is already setup that will work. Instead of the first one, choose ATT LTE and change the apn to "Phone" Should work just fine.

I started having problems Friday and into Saturday in places I always have good service. Seems to have cleared up today, though.
I'm now having an issue sending pictures through the stock jellybean SMS app 'messaging'. I hit the attachment icon, navigate to the picture I'd like to text and it sends, and shows 'sending' forever. Eventually it will notify me that the picture failed to deliver. Then it will continue to try to send to no avail. Never had this problem until the other day when all of this happened. Any corrrelation/thoughts?

Hello. Sorry for bumping an old thread but I have this problem on my Galaxy Nexus AOKP milestone 6 maguro. I'm with Wind Mobile in Canada so how would I get that info or where did you get that info so I can find it for Wind. I drop my 3g connection at LEAST 3 times a day and its driving me insane (turning on airplane mode to fix), probably going back to stock if I can't get help.
Anyone care to help? Thanks!

Ever since flashing aokp months ago, my data has been intermittent. During peak times like rush hour, phone will have full signal, but just won't connect. Icon stays on 3g. Tried different roms, full wipes etc, same problem. It's maddening. Just tried changing apn, hopefully that will fix it. Will report back Monday rush hour.

Not a good idea to call ST. If you reach someone over there that has a brain, which I know is unlikely, they will soon determine you are not on the stock firmware and can terminate your service. They are not receptive at all to modifying their phones software.
This guys best bet is to ask about his issue in the S959G thread:

Thank you gentlemen for your suggestions. I cannot delete the factory apn, or edit it. I saw there was a mod to remove it, but it's been removed. Anyone know another way to remove/edit it?
As for the steps people have been having success with, after following the steps, it not only still doesn't work, but I don't ever even see the GPS signal in the status bar.

Flash your nandroid of cm. Once it boots up, wipe cache and davlik, then flash the 33 modem. If you don't have one do a clean install of cm, flash gapps, then flash the 33 modem. Go into your APN settings. Delete all of the ones in there except the one you are using. Reboot and let me know if that works.

Reboot after changes are made. Then install "GPS Status" app if you are not using that already. Turn off WiFi and 'WiFi & mobile network location'. Then test GPS using that app to see if it detects gps/sats.
This worked for me and I had the same symptom you are having. My thinking is that it was not happy with the other apns being in there. Which makes sense because stock/slick/snow roms are built off of stock and they only have one apn.

GPS on this phone seems to be kind of a mystery.
I have been using TWRP since day one, I've run CFX from original development, as well as SnowJB, Stock ATT 20j, SlickJB, Rootbox, CarbonRom, AOKP and CM10.1 from android development, and now LiquidSmooth, and I have NEVER had an issue with GPS. It actually locks faster than my 2010 tomtom (350LMT?). I have never taken any action toward ensuing that my GPS works aside from running GPS status after flashing a new rom.

Same.
On two occasions I was unable to get a lock. Once I had WiFi disabled, so I enabled it, got a lock, then proceeded to disable WiFi and haven't had an issue since. The next time I simply walked outside of the building I was in, and instant lock.

Yeah, literally the only issues I have EVER had with my GPS have been caused directly by the building I was in.
I did have an issue with HSPA not wanting to connect once after flashing an NFC fix, but even that was temporary. On that note though, I have yet to be able to get NFC to work on an AOSP rom.
EDIT: NFC works fine on LiquidSmooth. Did not even turn on with Rootbox or CarbonRom.
Yeah my issue is that I don't even see the GPS icon in the status bar. Nothing. The only time I get a lock is when I enable help from wifi and cell signals.
It is really frustrating because almost every ROM I use the GPS works, but as soon as I go back to stock rooted JB GPS is gone.
I'm beginning to think that my file structure might be the culprit. I have multiple sdcard directories (labaled 0,1, etc.) and several erroneous ext_card directories. I'm thinking I might have to just scrub the entire phone and restore it to bone stock, update JB OTA, and root it, to get it working, but I would really like to avoid this, as it's a butt ton of work.

so I am happy to report that I finally got gps working again. for me it involved going completely back to stock (via LGNPST). then following the slick rom guidance for fixing gps and actually flashing slick ROM. at the end when gps was working in slick ROM I flashed stock jb again and behold it was working. the key step here for me was flashing back to stock.
thanks to all who helped me with this process!

I have a att compatible SIM in my DNA with working data and calls but no mms, I can recieve but not download the pic and can't send.....please help must be wrong Apn somewhere
I have the same problem and couldn't fix it. I read all over the web and the only solution I could come up with was to get a new Sim. Apparently this worked for some. I use GoSMS now and MMS works. It has lots of themes so I just replaced the stock text messaging app with it.
I keep seeing AT&T is extremely difficult to get MMS working properly on, even T-Mobile can suck getting it working, on anything but AOSP ROMs I had to use GoSMS also.

Well guys I found the issue and I'm fixed mms and web work great now. The trick is to call 18553332355 and tell the mms was working and now its not. They will go over the Apn settings and then you have to keep them on the phone, after 30 min they HAVE to get a manager who will then use their "tool" and have you turn your device off for 1 min then everything works great. I had to do this 4 times with 4 devices. Trust me this works . I know its 30 min but if you want a 100% working service this is a must

wonder what the correct apn settings are for att then. i have a chance to get a dna at a good price but have to have mms.
Hope someone can help.
Ive moved my i605 from verizon to straight talk and everything is fine except i cant recieve or send pictures.
Ive tried several apn settings, one i found on the net, one my buddy uses on his att note 2 on ST, and tried the apn settings from straightalk.
My buddies settings didnt work at all, the other 2 work minus MMS.
One i found on net....
Apn- tfdata
Mmsc- mmsc.mobile.att.net
Mmproxy- proxy.mobile.att.net
Mmport- 80
Mcc- 310
Mnc- 410
Authentification- pap
Apn type- default,mms,supl,hipri
Apn protocal- ipv4
The settings straight talk lists..
Apn- tfdata
Mmsc- mms3.tracfone.com
Mmport- 80
Mcc- 310
Mnc- 410
Authentification- pap
Apn type- default,supl,mms,hipri
Apn protocal- ipv4

I have mobile network switched to gsm
Anyone have any help, apn settings, or ideas?
Thanks

Just tried those apn settings.... same issue...no mms
Just put my ol ladies s3 on straight talk and she has same issue.... ive tried all the apn settings on her phone too
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk
Just wanted to add that prior to switching to verizon about a year ago... i used straight talk for several years.
I used the sim from the old ST e71 nokia and used it in a galaxy s1 before they even offered "bring your own phone" and i used that sim on several different phones using different apns.
I remember back in the day having to use 2 apns ... 1 for data and 1 for mms... i wonder if something like that would work.
Anyway, ive tried about all the popular working apn settings and nothing has given me mms.
I do remember reading a comment somewhere that said on a newly activated ST phone it may take several days for mms to start working. I dont know why that would be,and doubt thats the issue but this is a newly activated ST sim.
I just dont know what else to think

I believe you need the new sim cards. sorry those settings didnt work. Also if you go to the home page of that website they have a supposed-ed mms fix for st.
I just got these sim cards in the mail 2 days ago... they are new

Sorry if it was confusing, im not using the old sim i used before, was just saying that i have experience getting these sims to work and setting apn's so know its not that im not entering them correctly

Oh ok. that website has some useful info that's what I used for my att sim.

Woot! Its working! Thanks mj for a push in the right dirrection.
I had authentification type set to "none"
Only way to get it to "not set" was to reset apn default settings and then redo the ST apn and just leave authentification as not set.
Thanks again

Weird... i can send pics fine but when i receive them they come as a group chat.
I had 3 different people send me a pic to verify... they all come in a seperate group chat
Any ideas?

Uggggh, just turned off wifi and realized data isnt working but talk,text, and mms (kinda) are working.
Should i try leaving mms settings what they are and try changing the apn and apn proxy sections of my apn settings?

Finally..... got it all working!

I think i tried these settings before and mms didnt work. I just activated this new sim a couple days ago so really now beleive u must give it a few days after activation for mms to be pushed to your straight talk account. Maybe this will help someone in the future

Just wanted to add.... my received mms still pops up in a new group text conversation,
Anyone know why that may be?
Other than that everything is working
