Really annoying me... texts and the Internet no longer work.
Did not do anything, and yet they have just stopped working. Reset the phone to default, entered in the correct settings for MMS, WAP, Net again, and still does not work... yet i can make phone calls and receive texts.
Whats going on? sure someone else had this problem...
Cant say I have had this problem myself,I dont mean to be rude but have you checked the settings page>mobile network settings> at the top there is an option to turn on or off mms and data (I know cos I use it to control usage).As for the sms problem Im not sure.Do you use the stock sms app or something else?
Also what network are you on?is it possible your apn is not correct or selected?Sorry for asking all the seemingly obvious questions but its usually where I would start with the same problem.

Hey, im failty new to the rooting scene, im usually happy with what comes out of the box but i decided to give this a try.
Everything went fairly well, had a few hiccups but in the end i got Modaco 2.9 on my Telus Hero. The only thing that doesnt work is SMS.. i can't send them and i can't receive them.
I double checked my APN settings and everything is fine, can anyone help me out?
Did you update to the latest radio?
yeah
update-hero-radio-63.18.55.06IU_6.35.08.22-signed
can you make calls? sms are not connected to the apn settings or something that has to do with internet or data network at all. sms are sent in the signaling with the network, the only thing that has to be set right is the smsc address. did you check that?
yeah i can make and receive calls, i can even do the 611 to contact telus
i checked the service number, its there. Im going to call Telus and ask them to push my config on my phone again.. i had to do it yesterday because my internet wasn't working on my phone.
Hope it works
Update: Called Telus, basically i can send txts but cannot receive them, according to the SMS server, it reaches my phone but isn't notifying me i guess..
i tried, re-wiping and re-installed rom and radio and still nothing.. everything else works great.
EDIT: oops sorry for double post, firefox crashed for some reason :S
Hey, just wondering if those on T-Mobile UK with the HD2 have had any problems with MMS? I've had the phone a couple of months but never tried MMS, until someone tried to send me one the other day. I got the message and when i tapped on it, its asks me to download the pic, i tap download and in the notifications it says unable to download.
I've tried getting T-Mobile to send the settings again to no avail, and have tried the sim in an old phone and MMS works fine. I've tried manually entering the settings and deleting the original ones but still doesn't work.
So i'm thinking its something with the HD2 rather than T-Mobile, but would just like to confirm with someone else's settings. Anyone any ideas?

I'm not having any problems. I did run a custom ROM a while back that displayed the same problems you mention, no matter what I did with the settings it wouldn't send or download. Not had a problem since though. Have you tried running the connection wizard again? (settings tab-menu-all settings-connections-connection setup) Might be worth a go.
Your provider settings govern how your phone handles MMS. You should be able to download the settings automatically, or enter them manually. I'd call them and ask how to configure MMS.
Got it working, tried what leoni1980 said, which i've tried about 10 times last night. And it worked lol, don't know why it just started working but cheers.
I am having the same issues - custom ROM, now won't download MMS.
It's refreshed the settings to -mobile UK, which is a start, but it doesn't seem to want to download
I have had the same issue on some custom roms, just seems that some work and some don't. I use Artemis v27 and not had any problems although I did have to reset my connection setting to start with as posted above. I also have 3G setting set to auto mode, although I don't know if this has anything to do with it.
I've recetly been having trouble sending any sort of MMS (group message, pics, text with emoji) when I have Wifi turned on. When I have Wifi off they all go through, I've tested this out and it's definitely what's going on. Also, when I go into the APN settings I do have VZWINTERNET selected but MMSC and other ones aren't set. There doesn't seen to be a way to change it. This all started happening after I installed Evolve SMS then uninstalled it.
I have also been told by a few people that they tried calling me but calls won't go through, and I haven't had any missed calls.
So more info, in case this helps.
I installed Evolve SMS but I was having trouble sending MMS...I wouldn't go through the first time but if I hit resend it went through just fine. I was using it for a while but a couple of times I had texts go to the wrong person which is very bad (and good thing there was that MMS bug which didn't let group texts go through the first time because a lot of people would have got something meant for my girlfriend). So I uninstalled it immediately and went back to stock MMS, and this is where I'm now having all these problems.
Anybody have an idea to what's going on? Does it have something to do with my APN settings (or lack of settings) and did installing Evolve SMS have something to do with it?
It's just strange they go through when WIFI is off but nothing when it's on. And my biggest concern is that I'm missing phone calls, which a few have been pretty important.
Any help is appreciated...Thanks!
Hi All.
Have my MXP on Verizon. Love it. However, I'm currently having some issues - I can't get MMS when I'm on wifi - I get notifications for the messages, and then get "failed to retrieve message" and then it just never shows up.
I'm using the stock messenger app.
I know textra has an option to "fix" T-Mobile (where this happens apparently), but I don't really want to use that because it uses a different text message database than the standard one, so I can't launch tasker events based on SMS/MMS when I use it.
I have unlocked the "secret" menu and enabled HD calling, and I switched my "preferred network type" to LTE/CDMA (since I'm on Verizon) in an effort to allow voice and data concurrently. It seems to be working. Not sure if this causes an error when I'm on wifi.
I also have Adblock Plus. Per this thread I just changed my APN to set MMS port to 8080; I'll see if that affects anything when I get home.
However, as I have not tested this, I am wondering if anyone else has this problem? As I type this, I'm now thinking that I may only see this when sending messages to/from iPhones ... I'll do more testing tonight and update, but I'm hoping someone sees this and is like, "Oh, I know exactly what it is ...."
EDIT:
So this didn't fix anything. I have to turn wifi off to get mms. REALLY ANNOYING. Anyone at all see this and have any solutions? Anything?
Thanks.
never had problems since day 1 if I was on wifi or not to send MMS. Maybe try factory reset.
To my knowledge, you can't get regular MMS over WiFi. You have to have your phone data on too. I have found no solution to automatically turn phone data on when a text comes in. Every solution I found doesn't work for Lollipop.
i just got the same thing but after i updated to 6.0 so figured it was because of the update
So I have cellular data on and wifi on. I don't know if there's a setting I'm missing that turns data off automatically when connect to wifi ... anyone know anything about this?
Either way, if I'm on wifi, I get no MMS whether using default messaging app or hangouts.
There is a know issue with any app that accesses the MMS database on 6.0 ....ie Pushbullet.
Let me see if I can find a link
Found it...

Hello,
I have bought a Leeco Coolpad for my mother and everything works fine except one annoying thing. Receiving SMS does not always work while the same sim card in another device works just fine.
It's like the phone is not listening for SMS at some point and you can send as many SMS to the phone as you want, no of them ever reaches the phone while sometimes everything is working fine.
Have you experienced the same issue and if yes, do you know how to solve it? My mother uses SMS a lot so if this doesn't work, I'll have no other option than returning the phone
Thanks
Laurent
Check the APN, make sure it's configured correctly.
Check the phone manage settings. The text are probably setup to block the incoming texts.
Thanks! I sometimes receive SMS which would mean that the configuration is ok otherwise I would never receive any. It's like the default application for SMS is sometimes not listening to incoming SMS anymore. I have tried other SMS applications and it's exactly the same issue, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't for some reason.
I have the same problem on Lineage (android 9) firmware 30s (the problem also persists on 20s). The problem does not come from my provider and the APN settings are correct. Have you found a solution? I think it comes from the radio settings. Thanks!
