I have a rooted, stock rom hox+. Everything great aside from an issue sending/receiving mms. It will be working fine for a little while after boot, then randomly stop working. Rebooting fixes issue. When the issue is occurring, there is nothing to let me know until I find out I never got a mms someone sent, or someone never got mine. Texting app (tried several, they all do it, currently go sms as main) says it sent just fine. When someone sends me a mms, I get the 'download' button, but it tries for a second then does nothing. The problem didn't start occurring until after I deleted the stock sms app. This makes me think deleting it caused the issue.
Unless someone thinks it is something else, I want to restore the default sms app to see if that fixes it. I was stupid and didn't back it up when I deleted it. Is there an easy way to restore the stock sms app? I'd rather not do a factory reset if I can avoid it.
Thanks =D
Can you specified which ROM you are using? Also can verify if your APN's are correctly installed?
If you follow this path : Settings -> click on Mobile Data left part -> Access point names -> APN's
Do you have a black screen with only APN'S & Menu on top? If yes, then you need to create an APN to regain your DATA access.
Who's your service provider?
I am using the stock rom, up to date (4.1.1). APN's are installed and look correct. I'm with AT&T.
Thanks for the help

Are you using adblock plus by any chance? I had it enabled and it was blocking all mms messages.

Yes I am, I will look into this and update. Thanks for the suggestion. =D
I seem to be having the same problem, hoping someone can help me out.
I'm running Elegancia 5.2 on AT&T, the APN settings I put in are AT&T HSPA+ (name) and "Phone" (APN). I cannot send SMS messages, not sure about receiving. Thanks in advance.

Found a solution here, though I'm not sure if it's optimal for where I live in NYC.

Finally updating about jtrue's suggestion. Tested to see if any adblock apps were causing the issue. Turns out that isn't it.
If anyone has other suggestions please let me know, this is beginning to get very annoying.
To reiterate: mms will randomly not send/receive. I've done everything I know to troubleshoot it, at this point I'm hoping for helpful suggestions in that direction, or a pointer on how to restore the stock sms app (hoping that will fix it).
Thanks in advance for any help.

I have the latest build and the internet settings from sony erricson (Settings->Sony Erricson->Internet Settings, works with other providers for me (have tested this) so I think it is all working, does nothing happen when you try to download the internet settings on your neo? it should automatically connect the new settings with this menu. hope that helps any-way. let us know what happens and will see if we can get the manual settings if this doesn't help.

Nothing happens, i tried reset defaults, i tried copying the the entries too! still does not conncet! is it a problem with idea? i can change my provider, i was thinking of that anyway! which one works with this phone? which is tested i mean! thank you for your reply!
I don't know about your Cellphone Network Provider but over here we can send them an SMS with a certain code to a certain number and then automatically send the correct settings as a reply...perhaps check if your provider has such a facility?
So have you tried the settings download though? did anything happen when you tried this option? rather then editing the entries or resetting to defaults?
Most providers do have the sms code option for internet settings too or you can go into the shop and get someone to help you with your internet settings as well.
Good luck either way.

Can someone please help me on how I can send mms via my android htc mytouch 4g slide? Ive configured the network settings, I can receive mms just fine but I cant send any pics that I take from my camera. Im using Vodafone australia and Ive gone to their website and retrieved the network settings and configured my device hence I can receive them just fine but just cant send.I dont get no error it seems to go ok but none of my friends say theyve gotten them. At first I thought cause its a 8megapixel camera the attachment might be too big, the pics are about 1mb. I remember my last phone I always had to compress the image to about 600kb to send it. Anyway I changed the resolution of my camera to the lowest setting and the pic was 24kb but they still didnt get that mms. I dont get it, what gives?
I've noticed this on some phones, try a different sms app such as go sms. It might work better as if I recall correctly it has some additional mms settings such as message size and includes workarounds for some known mms problems.

Hoi,
did your check your settings for mms-server and mms-port in your settings ?
Otherwise post them, so we can find out where the problem is.

try to active/unactive 3G, sometimes it's fixed for me.
As for sending MMS I use app called Handcent. Try it, it is free (and for me the best solution for SMS and MMS)
I am having the same problem. I can receive pics but I can't send them.
I have US T-mobile and here are my APN settings:
APN: epc.tmobile.com
Proxy: Not Set
Port: Not Set
Username: Not Set
Password: Not Set
Server: Not Set
MMSC: (ht)(tp)://mms(dot)msg(dot)eng(dot)t-mobile(dot)com/mms/wapenc <-(I cant post links but you get it.)
MMS Proxy: Not Set
MMS Port: Not Set
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
Authentication type: Not Set
APN type: Not set
Also I've tried a couple other messaging apps like gosms and handcent. But they didn't help.
Do you have mobile data services switched ON? Even when I am on Wifi Network, I have to switch my 2G/3G ON to send MMS.
Heya guys,
I've been going through quite a few different roms, trying to get MMS functioning properly, however without much luck.
Currently my best "workaround" is to be close to a wifi and have wifi enabled and send, or the other option to disable the data APN and make the mms APN default.
My Carrier requires me to use 2 APN's in order to get MMS and data working.
Has anyone found a solution for getting around this ?
My apn settings:
Data:
Code:
Name: Internet
APN: internet
MCC: 238
MNC: 02
APN type: default,internet
MMS:
Code:
Name: MMS
APN: telenor
MMSC: http_:_/_/_mms.telenor.dk (i have under 10 posts so cant post links, i have added "_"'s to go around this.)
MMS proxy: 212.88.64.8
MMS port: 8080
MCC: 238
MNC: 02
APN type: mms
i am required to be on the telenor APN in order to connect to the MMS proxy, i have tried being on the internet apn, however i get connection refused.
Well i guess i should state what i am currently using.
I am currently using mimicry 1.5.0 on a HTC desire Z works great except for the obvious M.MS problem.
I have a thread in the desire z forum, however since i beleive this issue is not just related to my actual phone, i thought a broader audiance could help with this.
bumping the thread, i guess i posted this thread a bit outside the useual active times, got completely burried.
Latest update, MIUI has this problem fixed in their ICS build, however their build is a bit too unstable on my phone (reboots all the time)
maybe if someone knows an app or maybe even a script etc that can ie change APN settings apon mms receive and send, and change it back after its sent/downloaded, i could live with such a workaround without complaining.
I have also written to my carrier in hopes of they can provide me with a single APN setting for both data and mms (i think they already have one, but since my rom does not have support for auto config of apn's apon msg recieve from carrier i am unable to enable it.)
If someone knows of a tool that can help handle this, i am willing to give it a try.
My phone is of cource rooted, would not have it any other way
bumping again, nobody with a suggestion ?
Another bump, in the hope of someone knowing a solution.
bump again, still no luck on this end.
I've had a problem with my M8 since I got it: I couldn't receive MMS messages. I could use the phone, internet, and send mms, but couldn't receive. I rooted, unlocked and s-offed, installed ARHD and still... no MMS. Googled, googled, googled... nothing. It seems nobody was getting anywhere. Well, I solved it, at least for my case:
It's Adblock Plus. Maybe some other ad-blocking apps as well.
ABP, when set to filter all connections, causes MMS to fail on the default APN settings. The fix is this, use these APN settings (everything not listed should remain the same) :
MMS proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS port: 8080
APN type: default,supl,mms,hipri
The default MMS port is 80, which conflicts with ABP. Haven't had a problem since I changed it to 8080. Hope it works for you too!

A number of folks have posted about the inability to send or receive MMS in various threads, especially the RR and CM threads, without an answer. Let's work together to try to solve the problem.
I'm on the latest version of Resurrection Remix. Hoping for more guidance, as MMS works when I go back to stock... but who wants that?
The error I get back from Textly is: Failed MMS: Turn on Mobile Data (tap to resend)
Here are my APN/MMS settings:

Using Qksms and with the custom mms apn settings, I can get it to send using 1x. It will not send using 3G or LTE. Maybe someone can modify the apn-conf.xml in /system/etc to make mms only use 1x.
I changed the bearer under settings->cellular->apn->ringplus to 1x and unspecified but it still wont use 1x for mms. I suspect it is just missing an entry in the system apn-conf.xml.
I do not know what the values are or what entries are missing or will test it out.
This is kind of embarrassing, but I got MMS to work now. I thought for sure that mobile data was turned on, but a recent update must've turned it off.
That, and I also just re-flashed the APN settings for RingPlus: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...t/flashable-lte-fix-moto-e-6-x-boost-t3290719
I don't know which of those things ultimately fixed it, but it's now working for me, even on LTE (via Textly... I don't want to go back to the stock messaging window).

I still can only send/receive when I change to 1x or 1xRTT. But it's fine. I don't use mms much. I get the free 100 mms a month but hardly use it.
This is on CM13 official build. Maybe resurrection remix is a few build behind. It used to work on LTE for me.
