I recently ditched my original Samsung ROM (Android 4.3) and flashed Archidroid 3.1.5 (based on CM12.1) in its place. I'm loving Lollipop 5.1 and have gotten everything working - except for MMS. When I'm away from WiFi, I can send and receive MMS no problem. When on WiFi, I can send MMS but can't download them. I get the text saying there's an item to download, but when I hit the download button it spins for a while then gives up. Needless to say, this didn't happen before I upgraded.
I've checked my APN and have verified that I have the right settings for an unlocked smartphone, according to the AT&T site. Can anyone advise me on how to fix this? I'm already tired of having to turn off WiFi every time I get an MMS.
UPDATE 7/27/16: I've also verified that the AOSP SMS app has the option "Auto-enable data" turned on, which is supposed to momentarily turn on mobile data for MMS messages.
Thanks!

Hi, I've got 3000 MMS per month from my service provider, and my SGSII GT-i9100 is randomly not sending/receiving the MMS. SMS works just fine as always, but MMS is troubled. Sometimes, it will send/receive MMS without a problem, but then again sometimes it won't. It just gets stuck on "sending"-animation, and after a reboot it says that it failed to send the MMS. Just now, I managed to send 1 MMS to my gf, and then the second MMS got stuck on the "sending"-animation.
The settings have been double checked at least 10 times, the ROM has been wiped and reflashed several times, and Wi-Fi has not been on (I first noticed this problem when I accidentally had Wi-Fi on and then tried to send MMS, after that I instantly turned Wi-Fi off and the problems have persisted ever since).
Browsing online works great, and uploading files too. Signal strength is almost at max all the time etc...
I've used several ROMs, now I'm on Omega v. 16.2, and I use Go SMS Pro to send my sms/mms... The stock sms-app is installed too, but I don't use it. Also I've made wipe settings and caches and fixed permissions a dozen times... Nothing has helped that I've tried. Sometimes the MMS works, but mostly it won't.
SIM card must not be the one to blame, as I can send MMS with my Gio, that has some custom ROM also, and this SIM attached to it...
Any fixes?
So I flashed back to stock T-Mobile Android 4.3 for the HTC One and now I am having problem with MMS, specifically group texts. I received a number of group texts while on wifi calling and half of them never downloaded. A MMS message box shows up under the individual contact (presumably the person who sent it) with an option to download. I click download and it never completes. Sometimes it will fail and show a red exclamation next to their name.
I was on Android Revolution HD 9.4 (Android 4.1.2) as recently as yesterday morning and wifi calling was working flawlessly with MMS / Group Texts.
I've seen that on multiple phones all running custom roms that I've made APN changes to. I don't really use Wi-Fi calling so in my case it's not related but I've found rebooting causes the messages to download almost every single time. I know it's not a solution but maybe it helps before someone else posts something that fixed it.
Hello everyone. I am having a problem on my verizon galaxy s4. I installed the CM 10.2 Stable build (probably about a week ago now). For a while I had no real issues other than some occasional restarts because of lag and slowness (only one time). However, this morning I was trying to send a picture text and I ran into a problem. Now since hangouts became able to handle sms/mms I switched to using that as my primary messaging program since I already use hangouts through google plus for chatting. MMS messages were working fine in hangouts when I first installed CM 10.2 stable as I sent one yesterday and it went through. Now when I try to send MMS messages it just pops up saying hangouts has stopped. If I keep opening hangouts it will just keep saying that so I have to clear data and force stop and resetup hangouts for sms to get it working again. When I try sending the MMS messages through the stock messaging app, I just get the error on screen that says "com.android.mms has stopped working."
Now I have been searching google and the xda developers forums all morning and have not been able to find anything that is resolving the issue. I am trying to avoid having to do a factory wipe and reset but if that is the only option then I will do it. I tried some of the things I found while searching but nothing has fixed it yet. For example, one thing I saw to try was to make sure my APN settings were correct. I checked my settings against the settings found on another website but I can't link it here because I dont have 10 posts yet. Most of them were already correct I just had to add the MMSC site and change a couple other settings such as the MCC. Is anyone else experiencing issues like this? Is it a known issue in CM 10.2 stable for verizon gs4? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.
Try using go or go pro app from Google play store. Top left task bar. Go to settings then Send and recieve then to advanced settings. At the bottom of the colum you'll need these 3 lines.. MMSC, MMS proxy and MMS port. Use the same as plugged into your apn settings. Hope that fixes your problem...

I'm using the C6806 GPE edition z ultra, bootloader locked and unrooted. I've run into an issue with sending and receiving MMS messages while I am connected to wifi. I am not attempting to send messages over wifi and my APN settings are correct. If my wifi is turned off, I can send and receive without issues. But when it's on, my outgoing mms will sit "sending" forever. Incoming messages come through with the download link but I have to disconnect from wifi to be able to sucessfully download.
I've tried multiple messaging apps and all seem to have the same issue. These are the ones I've tested: Hangouts, EvoleSMS, 8SMS, Textra. Even with the recent update in 8SMS to enable mobile data to send MMS, it still gets stuck in a sending state and is never received by the person I am trying to send to.
Has anyone else had a similar issue or any idea of how to fix it?
USA TA-1085 here, had this issue since I've had the phone. I'm on an AT&T post-paid plan and I can't send or receive MMS, whether it's a picture or a group text, while connected to WiFi. If WiFi is switched off or not connected to a network, MMS functions seamlessly. If connected to a network, Android Messages will prompt me to download, and it'll spin for awhile and then time out. I've tried other messaging apps like Textra with no results. My APN settings are the same as my previous phone (Moto G5+)
Nokia Support had me delete a lot of system app data, toggle battery saver, and nothing worked. They only indicated that a solution may be presented through an app or system update, that they report bugs to Google with a request for resolution, that updates "usually come every month" and "most likely within November I should receive it." For what it's worth, that's a similar response I got to issues with Smart Lock, and those issues have since been resolved.
Has anyone else seen a similar issue and fixed it?
I just tried this on my 7.1 and had no issues. I sent an mms from a MintMobile device to my 7.1 on AT&T and it worked with the WiFi connected. I know this doesn't really help but I'm just letting you know as another data point.
I had issues with MMS in general. I removed all the APNs, created a new one with all the proper TMobile info, and installed Textra (which I own). No issues since then.
Oddly, I wasn't aware I may have been having MMS issues but while I was checking the APN for LTE connection I messed something up and lost connection completely and reset my APN's to default. This prompted an MMS message to be immediately delivered upon reconnecting which could have been a coincidence but after seeing this post and testing sending MMS messages to myself and friends, I have no issues now on T-Mobile on Wi-Fi or off.
Saw a thread in the Nokia 7.1 forum that links this behavior to WiFi calling. Is that enabled on your phone?
