Hey guys.
So my V10 is originally from T-Mobile. It is factory unlocked. I have a Cricket sim card in right now and I can make calls, receive texts, send texts, and receive calls. But for some odd reason I don't have access to mobile data and MMS. I tried setting up an APN or what have you. But that has gotten me nowhere. Also tried to contact Cricket directly but to no avail. Any help would be great.

Hi,
I assume you followed those instructions and have also activated the created APN and enabled mobile data:

I am having a problem with MMS from my TMO HD2 (U.S.). I have a prepaid sim card in it and use only wifi for internet connection.
I can not send or receive MMS of any kind from my phone. I get the the error message that the MMS was unable to be sent/downloaded. On previous phones (specifically tmobile wing), I had no problem sending MMS with a prepaid SIM.
Can anyone answer definitively if the HD2 has to have a data plan to work? I have read that the hd2 needs a data plan for MMS and that it doesn't need it. just looking for the facts. Also, I don't know if settings for MMS have gotten screwed up or not. Can someone post the settings exactly?
Hi all,
Any Optus branded SGS2 owners here having issues recieving MMS from Vodafone numbers. - hope im not the only one lol
I have had my phone for about 2 weeks now and till this day cannot send or recieve MMS from people on the Vodafone network. I can send and recieve MMS fine from Optus, Telstra, 3, Virgin but nothing from vodafone.
I have called Optus about this issue, its been over 2 weeks now and they still cannot resolve the issue! if i put my SIM card in any other phone and enter the correct Optus APNs it works fine (can recieve and send MMS to vodafone). I have checked/re-checked/deleted and re-entered the Optus MMS APNs about 20 times now as instructed by Optus and still not luck!
Here are some screen shots to give you guys a better picture.
Vodafone recieve MMS shows up as 'Download' but never downloads!

Telstra Recieve's fine

And any other provider seems to be fine.
No matter what i do i cannot download the MMS from vodafone numbers nor do they recieve my MMS.
Anyone else have this issue?
Exact same issue here. No idea what to do.
I am on AT&T, and having the same problem.
I had this problem for ages with all MMS and found it actually worked when I turned wifi off and just had mobile data networks on and hit "download".
Worth a try at least if you haven't...
I had this issue too. If I had mobile data off and an MMS was sent to me, the msg would be stuck in 'downloading' and I could never receive it even after turning data on and off, restarting the phone, killing the process and reopening it etc. There was no way to manually retrieve it. My fix is;
1) Open messaging
2) Hit menu button -> Settings
3) Untick Auto-retrieve.
Now all MMS's appear with a download button. Simply enable mobile data, hit download and voila!
Ok, I purchased this LG Optimus T P509 from T-Mobile. I unlocked it officially for AT&T, it is for my sister who wanted an Android but no data plan. It is perfect for her. She loves the keyboard, gets great service, nice texting interface, but she can't MMS! I went into settings and set-up the AT&T APN, and the AT&T MMS APN. The phone was going onto mobile data and to prevent her getting a high bill, I turned off mobile data. With a mobile data block there is no MMS! So I bought this app called APNDroid. I said keep MMS enabled, turn APN off. MMS doesn't work. APNDroid worked on my phone. However, my phone is a carrier unbranded Gingerbread phone.
PLEASE HELP! I have been looking high and low for months. Any help is appreciated. We don't want a data plan but I don't understand why MMS works on my data-plan less phone and not on hers. She gets a download button for MMS, it says downloading.... then failed!
About her phone: LG Optimus T P509, Android 2.2.2, texting and calling work, tried mobile data once and it worked!, uses WiFi all the time,
Good morning
We recently switched from Verizon to a T-Mobile pre-paid plan and the idea was to use my wife's Verizon G3 on T-Mobile. Everything is working fine for us but Text. Most of the time it just will not send. I have changed and done all I could think of our found on the Internet with the APN settings, tried Global and GSM under Network Type etc.
Typically after a reset the text will work for some time and then stop working again. We have tried with her Rooted phone on Jasmine and also my phone which was returned to Stock since I am trying to sell it. Same experience in both instances.
Any ideas?
here are the Access Point Settings we currently have
everything works for me now, i just cant send nor receive picture messages. It always says message expired.
I checked the APN and settings match.
Thanks for your help.
I have a phone (Huawei Honor 6X; posting in this forum because no one in that forum answered + this seems to be a non-device specific issue, so just hit me up with ideas) on T-Mobile that can use data, can receive MMS, and can send/receive texts, but cannot *send* MMS/picture texts. APN settings are as they should be for T-Mobile (although if anyone wants to post their T-Mo APN settings for their GSM unlocked phone, please do) but it's not working. Any ideas?
