LG V10; MMG does not work when wifi is connected - T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
Can anyone tell me why I cant send picture messages when I am connected to wifi? On previous phones, I have been able to send pics while on wifi as long as I have cellular service; the phone would automatically send due to the phone having cellular service available. But with the v10, I notice that my pictures will not go through if I am on wifi. I have to turn wifi off, wait for the pic to go through, then turn wifi back on, which is a pain. Does anybody know if there is some setting or something that I need to adjust?
Thanks,

Do you have WiFi Calling enabled and are you using a third-party messaging app, such as Textra? You might need to adjust your MMS settings in the app. On the V10, third-party apps cannot send MMS via WiFi Calling, so MMS messages will appear stuck and never send unless you explicitly instruct your messaging app to use cellular data for MMS (this varies with each app).

I think this is a known problem. Textra is the only messaging app that I know of that has "T-Mobile fix" option. It temporarily disables WiFi when sending or receiving MMS. Works great too.

Hope this help.... I also have TMO v10 with ATT network... I got 4G LTE all the time..... Try it see if work for you. Check FAQ stickies on the very top of Q&A section Q7 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=64684661

Handcent next uses the mobile data network while on wifi to send mms. While on wifi I've seen the 4g icon pop up when I send a mms

I have yet to try it but it seems setting your APN to IPv4 from the default IPv6 allows MMS to go through when you are on wifi. It at least was a solution for Nexus 5 back in the day though it seems in ted77usa's comment he is able to enter IPv4/IPv6 as an option.

[Q] Disable Location set by GPS Notification

As stated. I am using anti theft software that forces my phone to switch on wifi and GPS but as soon as it does I get that message telling me something is using my GPS etc. This looks suspicious to a potential thief in my opinion so I want to know if there was anyway at all I could remove or disable this pop up

Well. I have found out that Cerberus somehow disables this message shortly after it is displayed. However I prefer to use PhoneLocator Pro and that is the problem app for me. I contacted the developer and this is the reply
Hello !
This issue is because of your custom ROM you are running.
This is not happening in all the ROM's and you should ask developers of this rom how this issue can be fixed - maybe there is a way to disable this.
I will document myself on this, but I don't know if this can be fixed - even if you are saying that Cerberus doesn't have this behavior . Cereberus might be using a hack to turn on the GPS, a hack which I don't want to use cause Google is watching and these things can ban your app from the Play store.
Switch to Avast.
You can remotely lock the phone, sound an alarm, send text, forward calls, forward text, wipe phone info, gps track etc.... all through text commands. You also have the added benefit of anti-virus and firewall protection.
Best of all..... It's FREE.

I have that installed as well, it isn't as feature rich in comparison to PhoneLocator Pro or Cerberus. Plus I like to use the web based interface rather than SMS

Anyone uses Internet calling on S3?

I have 2 SIP accounts set-up under the Phone app > Call Settings > Internet call settings (Account).
There are times when I pick up an incoming VoIP call (caller calls one of my DIDs associated with one of my three accounts), I pick up and the sound is routed right away to the speaker of the S3 with no option/ way to make it go back to the earpiece.
Has anyone experienced? Can reproduce?
Can someone please try and report their findings?

I use it. Always got the sound thru earpiece. Have another problem - I cannot figure out how do options of calling work: for all calls when mobile network available, only for internet calls (what is that?), ask for every call. I use the last option, but it's annoying.
That's how I use it too. Couldn't figure out "Only for Internet Calls". I don't see the option under contacts or anywhere else.
Anyone knows?
Solution is found. Try Advanced Dialer app to filter dialed numbers for SIP routing through stock dialer.

Another issue: the native SIP client does not produce any DTMF tones!
Update: Jelly Bean fixed the DTMF tones issue. It is now working.
am I reading this right that VOIP calling is built into the OS now ? if yes how do I put my GV voip account into it ? right now I use groove ip
ICS had native VoIP and a built in SIP client, so does JB.
Kudos to Samsung and HTC for not removing that from the GT-I 9300 and the S720E.
Launch phone, you should be looking at the dialpad, contextual menu 》Call Settings, scroll all the way down to the Internet Call Settings section 》 Accounts.
You can add accounts there.
Note: Google Voice is not a VoIP provider and so you can use it with the SIP client.
I use Voice+ from the market place for Google voice on the S3.

[Q] Completely Stock, can't send SMS or make Calls

Hey guys,
I just bought a Galaxy Note 2 second hand, and it is having some problems. Right now I'm not sure if it's something I'm doing wrong, something Verizon is doing wrong, or something wrong with the device.
I am 100% stock, with no modifications. I can receive texts, but cannot send them (I get a message saying it will wait for the network to become available to send). I also cannot make calls (I get a similar message).
Here's the kicker though: I have signal. I have several bars of 4G, and am sending / receiving data through the browser, but the SMS / Voice call features of the phone do nothing.
Anyone have any advice? I have tried the following:
Wipe Data / Factory Reset
Reboot
Wipe Dalvik
Shut down, remove SIM card, put SIM card back, reboot
Nothing seems to do anything helpful!
UPDATE: Just browsing around the settings, I found the following in my network settings:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that missing some things?
Did you just activate your service, or start new 4G service? It can take anywhere from a few hours to a full day for all phone functions to work. When I got a new SIM before, data worked almost immediately, but some of the SMS/call related things took a couple hours before they worked properly.

No, I had a Galaxy S3 and simply shut that phone down, took out the SIM, and transferred it to the new phone. Nothing else changed.

[Q] G3 Not Getting Push Notifications

Hey, XDA.
I looked around but I couldn't find a similar thread about this.
Back a couple weeks ago, Verizon pushed out the not-so-official-but-it-exists-for-you-to-download VS98523C firmware and I put it on my G3 through the LG Flash tool and it works flawlessly...except for one part...
It seems that when I connect to WiFi, I instantly stop getting push notifications (i.e. no email, WhatsApp, GroupMe, Wunderlist, etc... alerts). But, when I connect back to 4G, I instantly get a barrage of the 'missed' notification from when I was on WiFi.
Also, it's not my WiFi network at home, I've reset my router/AP multiple times, tried different networks, different configurations to no avail.
I was wondering if anyone had the same issue and if there was a fix out there.
If there already is and I still don't know how to read, I'd be more than happy to get a link to it.
Thanks!
Are you living in some type of time warp?

Question WiFi call using SIM card 2

I have two SIM cards in my S21 that allows me to call to Brazil using WiFi without have to start the number with country code. It works perfectly in such way that I never imagined. On Pixel 6 this is not available. What is required to the phone to work like that? I thought that any 5G should have the same features. P6 says that can do WiFi calls but not like S21!
I've been trying to figure out a way myself for months.
The setting is called Backup Calling (Samsung calls it Auto_Data_Switching).
Anyways, it doesn't seem to be as straight forward on the Pixel devices. The switch for backup calling has only showed up for me on the Physical SIM. Also, its only when I turn the switch for the sim off and then on again; it disappears super quickly and I don't understand why. I should add that when I turn the sim back on, I have to scroll super quickly to the bottom, select which line I want data on when the notification comes up, then quickly switch backup calling on before it's gone and replaced with Wi-Fi Calling. Sometimes it stays but I don't think it does anything as something system wise is not enabling it.
But it's really the eSIM I want this on because I have data on the physical SIM only. So to have Wi-Fi Calling over cellular data via SIM 1 would be a huge relief. But the switch for backup calling doesn't show up like it does on the physical SIM. Scrolling to the bottom trick doesn't work as the notification is different (something about calls and texts switching to the eSIM).
I think "Cross SIM Calling" and whatever related to it is what we need to look at.
Let me give you more details. My SIM card 2 is roaming and both are phisical. When I have to call to Brasil using at&t SIM 1 or SIM 2 roaming, I have to include +55 11 if I am calling to São Paulo but; because the SIM 2 is from São Paulo; when I am calling using WiFi to SP I don't use +55 11 and the VIVO network register my call as local inside their network. I can call numbers like *555 for voice mail; something impossible if you are in roaming. This huge benefit come from S21 + WiFi call; not available on P6, unfortunately. I have a brand new P6 in my bookshelf because I figured out S21 is far better than P6.
