I've been playing around with various Nexus ROMs, MCR, Cyan's, Enomthers etc. and NONE of them have been able to receive MMS messages from my provider. I get the notification but get "Download failed" when trying to actually download it.
I just installed r22 of Paul O'Brian's Desire port, and MMS receiving now works using identical APN settings that I've tried previously.
This suggests to me that HTC is doing something different in their MMS backend, as I had the same problem with my Hero, stock ROM and any 1.5 variant could not receive MMS, used the Eris 2.1 leak and bang, MMS receiving started going.
I'd rather stick to using a Cyanogen ROM, any ideas how I might be able to identify what's causing the difference in ability and how I might migrate the difference over, or is it going to be something fairly low level that's going to be beyond me?

Hi, ever since I installed JF1.5 and onwards I seem to have lost the ability to recieve MMS/Picture messages has this happened to anyone else? is there any way round it?
any help is appreciated.
Never happened to me
What ROM are you currently running?? if its 6.0r1 then look in that thread in Android Development for how to get a hold of an mms.apk and push it to your phone etc

I've been having this issue for years. I've given up on T-Mobile in that aspect, it'll never work for them.
Just have them send it to your email address instead.
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"
First of all I am brand new here so I apologize for any ignorance I may have here! I tried searching the forums for an answer to this so if this was already addressed I apologize. I have an Epic that was recently flashed to boost and having issues with sending and receiving mms messages. It always says that it failed. I went in and changed the url to mm.myboostmobile.com and changed the proxys to 0 or 0's and it still isn't working. This is occurring on both of my epics. I know it can be done because there are corner stores by me that have it functioning perfectly. The reason I changed the proxys to 0's is because that is what I did for my Samsung Transforms and it worked great (until I allowed the system update). Does anyone have any suggestions?
Best bet would be to go to the development forums and find the thread there and PM someone who has it working.
have you figured it out I have the same problem
I suggest going to the thread called Epic on boost, MMS working.. and read it.. it tells you exactly how to make it work. Its in development. May I also suggest searching?
I am going through the exact same thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im glad im not the only one I was able to recieve and send jsut fine but now I can only recieve only on wifi or 4g, im on boost running 2.2 ec05 stock rooted, you might be sprint but I know all my proxy information is put in correctly because it was working before,I cannot send out and also my prl does not update and prl I was thinking about odin'ning down to 2.1 to see if that fixes my issue, while on 3g I just get download unsuccessful and when trying to send message just sits there and then after 20 min red x in handcent, I still have stock messaging
Boost mms
digital-hacks.com/showthread.php?93-Samsung-Epic-and-Intercept-mms-issue-with-Boost
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.
I have my friends mytouch 4g that I rooted and was working fine with cm7 and all of the sudden he couldn't receive sms or send sms I can't find the problem. I flashed the phone to three different rims and the same thing happens sms still does not work. I was thinking if it was the radio update has anything to do with it since it does not have the latest radio update issued in the month of May. If anybody can help me out please do or if anybody has the similar problem let me know. Thanks.

I know for royal ginger you needed to use go sms to receive picture messages but I believe it was fixed with the update I still use go sms so not sure if it works with the stock message app.
So far I have found APN being
wap.voicestream.com
epc.tmobile.com
internet2.voicestream.com
might want to try those
i use the epc.tmobile.com one
Thanks guys. I will try to change the APN see what happens since I don't have my laptop with me to flash the latest radio on the phone. Funny thing is that it doesn't work on original stock Rom either, no sms or mms on stock messenger app. I flash three different roms before flashing stock Rom. The phone had cm7 and had it on the phone for months then it just stoped receiving and sending sms last Friday. I flashed a sense Rom, a cm7 nightly and even Miui latest Rom and everything works but sms.
I will try the APN setting see what happens now.
Thanks guys.
Changing the APN's did not work. The phone already had epc.T-Mobile.com and still no sms working. I will try changing to a gingerbread radio since the phone still had stock radio.

Here's something; phones can be disabled from being able to receive or send texts (My dad had it forever) it's usually a user enabled thing so you might want to call up tmo and ask about it. other than that I can only see it being the radio.
I have the same problem as the OP, but it only happened after I installed MIUI. (OFFICIAL MIUI.us 1.11.11:: ||demonspeedMOD INSIDE||)
I've been on Stock Sense and CM7 for almost a year now, and after I installed MIUI, I can't receive MMS or SMS anymore. I haven't tried going back to CM7, but I'll post if that fixes anything.
The weird thing is that my MMS and SMS in MIUI was working for the first day or two, and then all of a sudden it stopped. I can still send SMS and MMS, but I cannot receive them.
I have the latest radios and a kernel functional for the ROM, but everything is functional except for the MMS and SMS.
Any ideas? Any help would be much appreciated.
11/21 UPDATE: Well I just tried using a 3rd party SMS/MMS app (Go SMS) and it works like a charm. Both SMS and MMS work perfectly.
Glad everything is working now. I just kinda assumed at first that nobody wanted to talk to me anymore.
