Hey I have team dirt's AOKP 3.5.2 flashed on to my phone. Whenever I receive an MMS, it just says downloading in my stock messenger application.
I downloaded gosms and they ended up coming in. Uninstalled gosms, same problem, redownloaded gosms and then I was able to download them.
Any ideas? I could just stick with gosms but i prefer the stock messaging app.
You need to change the apns to your carriers.

-_- can't believe it was that easy.. thanks!
Sprint Apns
Does anyone know the correct APN setup for Sprint? I have looked all over, on this site and others, and nothing I have tried works.
I feel like I've done everything right, and followed many of Ramjet's guides, but am at a loss with this mms issue.
I'm running the latest version of cmb's PACMAN, and no matter what I do I cannot send/receive mms' without installing Go Sms. I've done clean, fresh installs, and nothing seems to work. Sometimes I can send/receive after a reboot, but it is very finicky and frustrating not being able to use the stock app...and I can't seem to let it go
Thanks to all the devs/contributors/members of this site for all the hard work put in so I can get the most out of my phone. Any help would be much appreciated.

If you downloaded the Sprint version, you shouldn't need to change the APNs. You may need to flash a sense rom to update profile/PRL. PRL changed the other day and it seems to go hand in hand with needing to update profile for mms.

Thank you good sir. I did update PRL a couple of days ago, but will give this a try again and report back.
Just to be clear, all I have to do is flash a Sense ROM, update profile/prl, and then just nandroid back and it will stick?
Thanks again.

Updated profile/prl, restored rom, and still no luck. Picture just sits there saying "Sending..."
I am at a complete loss here, because I don't see other people reporting the same thing, and I feel like I've had this problem since I started flashing 4.1/4.2 roms.
Is there anything else I could try? Why exactly does Go Sms work, but not the stock app? At work now, but will try another 4.2 rom and see if I get same results, just hate to leave pacman with all the options and its so smooth.

I believe go, chomp, and handcent all go through their own servers. I could be wrong though. I always use handcent because I hate having to type names in stock app. Much easier with check boxes. Other than maybe the settings in the messaging app for mms, I'm at a loss. I'd blame it on towers, but if it's only jellybean roms that can't be true.

I been running Simply Honey 3.8 with no problems at all and everything works great. I have only one issue its the blurry MMS. I remember this from 2.2 which i still have the zip file i flashed, but wanted to get feedback b4 i flash cause SH is 2.3 not sure if that zip file will mess anything up since it was for 2.2 software.

DO NOT just flash anything, if you don't know what you're doing, it will either lead to frustration or a terrible brick.....in general, do not just flash files thinking it will go smooth because that is not the case.
Go to settings, about, what is your modem version? Also, have you messed with your network, sms, or call settings?

Kb5 and have not touched any setting in the phone, besides flashing the rom...
Its not gonna werk. Any flashable .zips from 2.2 generally will result in bootloops for breakfast if you try to flash them while running 2.3. Thats just IMHO, only one real way to find out though. Good luck!
*EDIT*
You could always try to push the Mms.apk alone if no one else seems to be experiencing it.
For some people since 2.2, open your sms app, go to settings and change the User Agent....some used Nokia or whichever one, but this worked really well when it worked for an individual.....try that and if it doesn't then we can find a modified sms app for you to use.
@Kawika no im def not tryin to find out im pretty sure its not gona work but i did try a mms apk from another 2.3 rom n no good also @crazy25000 i tried chomp & handcent sms n still retained the problem i just went into setting in the sms app n i do not see the user agent you are reffering to.

Yea i have that mms fix but i used it on 2.2 the SH 3.8 is a 2.3 rom so dont think it would work....thanks for the effort....
well got tired of the blurry mms i ended up flashing back to simply galaxy 2.8 final everything back to normal no blurry mms issue....
I had the blurry mms problem, too. I tried a lot of things to fix it, what ended up working for me was installing handcent, then under handcent settings>application settings>default messaging applications select all(sms & mms). Then I froze the stock messaging app with titanium backup. No more blurry mms pics.
I know that you guys are going to tell me to search through the thread. I'm actually not a noob I just lurk a lot.
I flashed SpeedROM 4.0 and now I am unable to send mms messages (redundant) while I'm connected to my WiFi. I searched all over that thread to find a fix and all I came up with was to install Android 4 ICS Messaging SMS over the Play Store. tried it. it came up with an error "Duplicate Provider Authority" Any help?
I also found out that there's no notification of messages on the lock screen nor does it chime/vibrate/notify when you receive a message from an unknown number

It's a general problem with the amaze on ICS, it's widespread, so don't expect a fix anytime soon.
It never happened on the stock ics with sense 3.6. If I knew how to do all of this stuff I would help. My best guess is that the answer is in the stock ics ROM. I have my stock backup if anyone needs it for study

You do realise I'm on stock ICS right? If you read the wifi thread that's in this very sub forum, you'd see it's not just me that has the issue, many members here as well, go over to tmo's forum and check the ICS bug list thread, you'll see a damn long list of others there as well.

my guess is on the kernel needing to be flashed/reflashed for the mms/wifi thing. as to the other issues, no clue. have you tried running stock ics yet?
Yeah I had stock ics for a while before I switched. I don't know how to flash the kernal though. Honestly if I knew how, I'd just put stock ics mms.apk in the.zip but I tried that already and it canceled the install. Don't know how to do that either

"Duplicate Provider Authority" means that you are trying to install something that the phone already has system flags dedicated for(this explanation could be a little better).. Speedrom already has the MMS app, use a root tool, titanium backup - something to remove mms.apk from the system/app folder, then you will be able to install the one in the market -- not that that is a sure fire fix.. but one thing at a time. Try that, that is the only reason you couldn't install.
I've been trying like crazy to get the stock ICS mms.apk to work on Sense 3.6. So far, mms will not work, which to me makes it worthless. Does anyone have and information on what it takes to get mms working?
Normal texts go through without issue but pics hang, saying "sending", and never do.
I've tried uninstalling the Sense messaging app and installing the ICS one. I've installed the ICS one as an update to the Sense version. It all ends the same. No mms. Even tried a deodex one from the Sprint Nexus hoping that would work.
Any ideas?

Are you rooted? If not, try a factory reset. You can also call Sprint and have them "refresh" your device.

Whoops, forgot that info. Yes, rooted hboot 1.4 s-off running MeanROM ICS 2.4. I don't think a device "refresh" will help at all. Mms is working perfectly when I restore the Sense messaging app. It's strictly in the vanilla ICS app that mms won't send. I don't know if there's something the app calls to for mms that the Sense version doesn't or what. I've read quite a bit where this has been tried and hasn't been figured out yet. Just hoping to hit on something with it and get it working.
I'm using the mms.apk from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1640576
I've also tried multiple others from Galaxy Nexus ROMs with no luck. I'm not looking to go AOSP either, just want this one app
Not that this helps much, but I've read others have issues with that app too. They'll get no texts and then a flood of them will come in when they switch back to the sense based app.

Hello, I would like to have a thread for Wind Mobile customers in Canada using the HTC amaze.
Specifically at this point I would like to know what ROM everyone is using and do they have mms working.
I have only been able to get mms working on NRG's Aug 6 ROM.
I would love a more AOSP ROM but am stuck if I want mms.
(also I have noticed the apn recommendations for Wind do NOT look correct in the thread for apn's as it suggests 1 apn for both internet and mms)
Please join this thread and share any experiences you have and I hope this helps others besides myself.
Especially since I think our phone is still great and I don't know of any reason to switch or upgrade at this point.
Have you tried the one APN even if it doesn't look right?

Thanks for reply and suggestion
To be honest I haven't tried in a long time and I did not try this morning when I was trying the Fourth Bar Infusion ROM.
I guess I have assumed that how I have the apn's on the NRG ROM is how they need to be as it works
However, I suppose it is possible that the apn's need to be different if the ROM is different or de-sensed.
Could this be?
Has anyone out there with Wind got mms to work on a ROM other than NRG's and if so, how did you do it.
May give it another try tonight if I have time.

Does anyone think that if I use the 1 apn for both internet and mms and it does NOT work on the NRG ROM it MAY work on a different ROM?
and or vice versa?
I'm not with wind, but I've had problems with certain roms not being able to send mms, but it was usually something screwy with the mms.apk. If I swapped it out for one that I had working from a different rom, I'd have no issues, but yeah, only one apn for both data and mms.
try swapping in an aosp mms.apk on your energy rom and see if it works. Extract it from fourth bar, or speed rom even. rename it to mms1 or whatever, that way you'll have both working to test back to back.

Do you mean that yes, you only 1 apn for internet and mms looks OK or it does NOT look OK?
I can try an AOSP mms apk and see if I can get it to work along with the original one in my NRG ROM.
I know I tried taking the mms apk from the NRG ROM and putting it on another ROM I tried and it would NOT work.
Thanks for ideas and I will continue to try things.
yeah, only one apn for both, they are set up so that anything mms related is set up through the one apn. The only time you'd need another is if you're swapping between sim card from a different carrier, for example I have a bell apn set up so if I want to swap in my work sim in my phone I'm ready to go with data and all.
What other roms have you tried? I've tried some and found mms to be an issue, esp. on some of the speed rom versions.

yup I have an amaze.
This mms.apk works for mms on my end, paste it in your current rom /system/app folder and if mms is working in your current rom mms.apk, then it should work for this one. If it does work, then copy your apn exactly as is in another rom, and paste this apk in the same folder, and it should work.

what rom are you running?
did you uninstall or remove the messaging app so you just had this one?
I tried all I knew to try before posting and have been at this for over a week. I have the straight talk s3 and its compatible with Verizon aosp ROMs and CWM and with that said, I have working MMS on all jb ROMs but when I flash a KitKat ROM it no longer works.
Things I have tried...
Taken the apn-conf.XML from the stock TW and replacing the kk conf.xml.
Taken the a conf.XML from the working jb also ROM and replacing the km one.
Tried the app APN backup and restore with no luck. And there is no way to manually enter the APN on the ST s3. Im stumped as it works fine with 4.3.. So I. Sure there is a fix I'm overlooking or don't know enough to fix. Thanks in advance.
Have you tried another SMS app that supports adding your own MMS settings? That's a common way to fix issues like this when flashing to another CDMA service or using roms for another phone...

Thanks for the reply.. yeah.. I have been using handcent but would really like to fix it to where I could use the stock messaging app and maybe hangouts. I'm new to this but I think the 3rd party app is fixing the problem I should be able to go in with a file browser and correct it, right? I still have a copy of the stock rom if there is a file I need from it and also aosp 4.3 roms the mms works if there is a file I could use from there. Anyway, thanks for taking the time to answer my question.
This rom has an APN Config feature: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2598410
Maybe you should see how they implement that to see if you can port it to the rom you are using.

That's was my fault.. Forgot to move to priv app.. However I did get it to restore and I rebooted and tried to send a pic and still stuck at sending. I was for sure that would have fixed it.
***** OK, I tried it several times with no luck. I even deleted the APN and lost signal for a few seconds and it picked back up after a few seconds. There has to be some settings else where in there..?? Than I turned around and installed a SMS app and entered the APN and was able to send a MMS. I'm stumped.
