I am running dubbsy's GE rom for my S4 and the stock messaging app doesn't send them. I usually have to toggle wifi on and off and wait for it to send through 3g or lte. I don't think this is rom specific as I have always had this problem with my other phones. Does anyone know why you have to turn off wifi to send pics? Finally got it to work on handcent but I like stock better. Thanks.

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone could help me out. MMS is only working over 3G and also I can't seem to send any MMS. I can receive just fine but only over 3G also. I redownloaded the rom, reinstalled, fully wiped and still can't seem to send any MMS. Thanks if anyone can help out.

Did you try turning off Wifi when sending the MMS? I remember you cannot send MMS's with wifi on in some builds.
Mms only sends over 3G. Even when wifi is on, it temporarily switches to 3G to send and receive. As stated above, try switching wifi off to send, and if you see that you've received one but it hasn't downloaded, do the same thing.
i have the same prob. and i have turnd off the wifi i cant download the pic
i was having the same problem. you can eith flash the newest version or just use this: http://db.tt/GIKjzZw and you should be good.

Has anyone used a 3rd party SMS/MMS application (ie Handcent, GoSMS, Textra, 8sms, etc etc) to use send/receive MMS over WiFi Calling WITHOUT ANY DATA? I'm in an area where I can only use WFC, and all of my 3rd party SMS apps simply will not send or receive MMS over WiFi Calling without using the stock app.
Is there a solution?
And I repeat, NO DATA, no wifi = no service, so if you have a solution, make sure it's not quietly turning on data, sending the MMS, then going back to wifi, because that's not going to work as there is no cell service in this location.
Thanks.

Hey, I understand your needs. I work in a place where I have NO cell coverage at all and WiFi-Calling is the only way I can stay connected. I really don't like using 3rd party messaging apps so I'm not sure I have a solution for your needs in regards to 3rd party apps. But I know the stock messaging app on UVMC6 (stock 4.1.2 for T989) can send mms over wifi-calling. I'm guessing you are using a 3rd party app because the stock app doesn't do something you need/you don't like it. If you don't like it then there's nothing I can do. If you don't like the stock messaging app because you need...say group messaging? Well I might be able to help you. I actually just finished a write up on enabling group messaging on stock UVMC6. Here is the link. Let me know if you find this helpful. The stock messaging app has been modified by T-Mobile to allow MMS to be sent via wifi-calling...since wifi-calling is so baked into the ROM I really don't think 3rd party messaging apps will be able to send mms via wifi-calling.
Sorry if there is already a similar topic for this. I searched before, but can't find any information to solve my problem.
But my group messing inst working, I'm able to send text through it but i cant receive any back. I have tried different sms apps, none of them are working. Thoughts?
p.s i haven't rooted it yet.
Are you trying on WiFi or cell network..I have used it on Stock and Custom ROMs fine..except for WiFi sometimes won't do a group MMS until I get back on cell network but SMS is no probem..don't know why.

I tried getting rid of wifi calling, still no good
You have to go into the settings on the default messenger, and enable group messaging.
However, if you would like for it to be more fluid, consider making Hangouts SMS to be your default SMS client. I use it all the time, and it works pretty flawlessly
After updating to kitkat and using the stock messaging app I can no longer send MMS messages over WiFi I read somewhere that the messaging app should disable wifi and use data in this case, but it doesn't and its extremely annoying, any help would be appreciated.
So i have had the vivo 5 for a couple weeks now. I dont like the app drawer did zenui and thats great. My next headache is the mms while on wifi at home. If i text anyone a pic or a group message while i am on wifi it does not automatically switch back to data instead it fails. I have to actually turn off wifi wait for it to send and then turn back on my wifi. Is there a setting i am missing or is this a bug in the messenger app? Can it be fixed in the short term till developers build custom roms for it?
Otherwise i love the phone. I have another question but will post it in a separate thread.
Mms working fine for me, might be my 3rd party texting app (textra). Try messenger or another 3rd party sms app, might fix the problem.
I downloaded textra. It did not work until I turned on T-Mobile Wi-Fi calling fix. This feature turned off my Wi-Fi while I sent and received mms and turned it right back on after. So awesome. So is there a catch with this app? Will I get lots of ads or what not?
I just got a Vivo 5 and i don't see that issue and i am on T-Mobile as well, is it possible some other installed app is causing the issue?
I'm also using Textra because of this issue.
