MMS on android, recieving??xrom1.4r3 - Touch CDMA General

ive got my sending of and mms to work, and i can send them, but i cant get them? im on verizon, and i've heard you can get it to work fully.
running xrom1.4r3 btw.
any help would be great

All I've heard is that it's possible to get sending working, but not receiving. I could be wrong, as I haven't looked into it in a long time.

thats kind of a deal breaker then, i dont want a phone that "could" sent pics, but wont because of a "better" OS

It doesn't make a difference to me... Telus hasn't gotten MMS working properly anyway, so even sending MMS's would be nice for me

hero roms+sms

Hi I'm really sorry if this is in the wrong section or if I did something wrong when posting this. But I have a G1 and when running hero roms its a known issue that we don't get all sms or mms, so I was wondering (just got my mytouch today and already rooted and all that jazz) when you people with the Mytouch3g from tmobile do you get all your sms and mms when running hero roms?
Thank you to those that make all this possible =)
i didn't get all my sms or mms. also bt doesn't work which is why i switched back to cyanogen until this issue is fixed. however they say if you change your priority settings to high that you SHOULD get mostly all your messages.
=O
Well I don't use bluetooth often enough to NEED it so I'm fine with that, but the message thing is my biggest fear. thanks for your response though =] I'm just gonna stick with cyanogen until hero roms are more "usable"

MMS problems

Hey guys...just noticed today that my MMS messages to ATT phones doesnt arrive. I havent tried the other carriers yet. On my side, TMO says the message was sent. Im in US.
Any ideas?
Ive had pretty much the same issue texting my friend on att. sometimes she will get them, most often she won't. Ive also had this happen while sending a picture to someone on tmobile, but less frequently. My sim is 6 years old so maybe that could be it?
Current UScellular subscriber and of lately a friend of mine (AT&T) has tried 2 send me MMS msgs and i haven't been receiving them. she receives my MMS's, and i receive other MMS msg's from other USCC subscribers. help
Sadly, carriers do not like to play with one another very nicely. As well, are you sure your friend has their MMS setup properly on their phone? Can you send one to yourself?
I have a lot of issues dealing with people on Verizon not getting/not receiving for up to 3 days in a few occassions. My lady is on Verizon, and about once a week there will be a major delay with SMS. We don't even bother trying MMS anymore, because while I get them most of the time, she rarely does, and when she does it is usually a couple days later.
Being that I work for my carrier, I have tested and rest my account on all levels, and am certain it isn't on my end. We contacted Verizon a couple times, and they try to blame my carrier, but it is universal in my area no matter your carrier. A friend of mine works for them, and told me if there were no issues with her account or mine, it was probably because Verizon gives priority to in-network transmissions over out of network, ie verizon to verizon comes first, then verizon to carrier X, then carrier X to verizon.
For you who are using T-Mobile:
I'm curious to see what the file sizes of the pictures you are sending. I've had issues with sending MMSes too, and it turned out that the files taken with our cameras at the highest quality settings tend to be too large to send on the T-Mobile network. If you use the stock Messaging app, it doesn't seem to resize pictures properly. See my older thread here.
I just read your thread. I can take a picuture with the N1 camera and send it to myself. no problem. I can also take and send to other TMO users. So I dont know if the file size is the issue.
I dont know either but it seems T-Mo to T-Mo has no issues, but for me ATT is no go.
I haven't had any problems sending mms to my friends who are on At&t to their phone which we shall not mention...that's when they actually have a reception mind you. LOL
I'm on TMo USA. I believe the files size is lik max of 300 kb or something like that. It usually resizes it before sending anyway. I'm using hancent sms.
Yup. Seems like it's just a size cap att has. Handcent sizes irt below the 300kb. I just tried to send a MMS on the stock messaging app to a friend on Verizon, went through fine. Just seems like a little issue with ATT for now.
I have had this problem for a long time between carriers, Verizon and ATT are hit and miss from t-mo
I'm only having a problem sending MMS. I'm using the stock SMS app, but its weird. I have an open thread with several pics in it that I've sent, all of them it compressed down to 100kb-280kb. Now today, trying to send another pic (one taken with the camera) and it only compresses it down to 789kb. So of course it won't send.
Is there any way to change the compression size to do 300kb every time?

issues with MMS/picture msgs

I tried to do a little bit of searching online about this issue but never really found if there was a solution for it.
I tried to send a image to a buddy of mine and it wouldnt go through.
he is a nexus one user on TMobile.
the Pic size was 22kb.
anyone else having issues with mms and sending pics?
thanks,

Did it give you an error or anything on your end, or did it look like it left your device but just never showed up on their end?
When i first got my hd2 i could only sent mms to non tmobile users lol.. called tmobile said provisioning was fine.... hung up and it worked.
Have tmobile double check your provisioning
maybe I just had bad coverage at work. my msgs are going through fine right now, but I am also running wifi right cuz I am fighting to set up my remote desktop (been trying to get this working for 2 days now)

Network Problems

I have a quick question, did anyone have any problems with the Sprint network today, as far as sending sms?
The reason I ask is I was unable to send any sms however I was able to receive them, make calls and use data. Everything is 100% now and want to know if it was a network issue or possibly a Rom related issue.
Thanks for any help.
I didnt get an Mms earlier

Once in a while, I get those repeatedly. I have to wait until that person texts me so I can send back, otherwise I cannot.
Interesting. Guess I'll give my Rom the benefit of the doubt. Hopefully it was just a temp problem on Sprint's end.

New MMS problem arising

Since the last two or three updates within CM builds, I cannot receive MMS from my friend on the sprint network, I am on Tmobile.
I simply receive the message with an attachment that cannot be downloaded. every time I click the download button it tries to retrieve the file and fails
I can receive MMS from myself and it hasn't solved the problem
the apns seem like they have had no direct changes, is something to do with my friends phone more likely or is there a cause for this? tomorrow I will try to have someone on tmobile send me an mms to see if results are different.
need some kind of answer!!! preeeezee
recently gathered info leads me to the suggestion that it is 2.3.4 itself causing this issue, as there is a whole new box called "APN Protocol" in our APN edit menu. Haven't ascertained if there is an actual fix besides downgrading to an older build.
I am having this same exact problem. I know you haven't gotten and answer and it's been a while since you posted on this topic but i didn't want to get yelled at to "use the search feature"
no one seems to have the answer. i get mms from my sister (blackberry) and mom on Verizon. (my mom doesn't even have a smart phone) but my girlfriend with her blackberry on sprint wont come through. It shows the "download" button and it fails every time i click on it.
I haven't tried iphone users yet but seems the problem is carrier specific with my phone not playing nice with others.
I am running the latest cm7 nightly build on mytouch 3g slide from t-mobile. And using the stock message app to send and receive.
(please don't tell me to use handcent or anything of the sort, i'd like an answer to THIS problem, not just a work around)
please someone help!??
Did you try changing the User Agent in the messaging app settings and seeing if it helped?
yeah, actually tried them all. I believe thats only for sending mms so the receiving phone thinks its coming form another type of device. as far as receiving mms, no luck man
on 2.3.4 ive narrowed it down to I cannot receive MMS messages from iPhones on att or verizon. Anyone else who sends me one I am able to download.
Going back to rom in my signature
hmmm, interesting cause i can verify i get from Verizon but not Sprint. And we both have t-mobile, as far as i can see
Just wish the problem was more uniform so that it would be easier to narrow down the problem
im having the same problem with SIMPLE Mobile. it seems i can send to myself and recieve from ALL GSM carriers but CDMA carriers IE. sprint, verizon, metro pcs, do not work i can click download button till im blue in the face and they wont download...any ideas??
I fixed it, or rather it fixed itself. I backed up angry birds data (the only data that matters, otherwise my girlfriend yells at me that she has to start all over AGAIN lol) using titanium. I did a full wipe, data, davlik and cache. Then installed (at the time) the latest nightly, cm7 nightly 78. Automagically fixed, at least the people I tested (including my girlfriends, which was the initial problem) restored angry birds data and donezo. Tell me if it works for you.
