The issue has been happening to me recently (as well as my girlfriend, also on Sprint) that we cannot send MMS messages.
My phone is an Epic 4g Touch on AOKP and rooted, hers is a Nexus S 4g running stock.
No idea what is causing the issue, but whenever we try to send an MMS to someone it just sits there saying "Sending..." until it possibly errors out.

You may have to set APN settings manually.Ask your service provider for the settings.
Sprint uses CDMA unless Wimax or LTE is different. Have you called Sprint tech support at all?

Hi all,
I just got a Nexus 4 and am using a prepaid T-Mobile Sim with the 100 minutes unlimited data/messaging plan. Everything is working great except I am receiving duplicate text messages most of the time someone messages me. I was wondering if there is an APN setting or something else I can do to try and fix this annoyance. Was wondering if anyone else was having this issue.
Thanks.
My friend had this same issue.
The way we fixed it was power off the phone, take out the sim, power back up, leave the phone for 5 min, and then power back off.
Popped the sim back in and it was fixed.
When I see them next I'll ask to check their APN to make sure.
Hope this works for you.

Is it from people who are on various networks? Sounds like it could be a problem on their end. Every once in a while I'll get duplicate texts from people on MetroPCS, or Sprint if their networks are on the fritz. So try to have people from different networks text you and see if you still have the problem,

Same problem with T-Mobile germany... Senders are in different networks. I am receiving single messages up to 8 times. This happened on the i9250 nexus before, too. Same number, different sim card, different phone. Maybe related to cyanogenmod 10.0/10.1, as i never experienced that issue in stock. (To be honest, i was never long in stock Rom). The Problem occurs most times Ehen the phone is rebooted, or comes out of flight mode.
Which roms are you using ?

In general it's usually because of the sending party. Did you port your number also as that does cause it most of the time?
Nope, i just got a new sim card from my provider. I am a t-mobile customer for 14 years now, and never ported that number to another carrier.

Not sure if you have noticed this, but it seems to happen when I briefly lose service. When I get signal back I have noticed that is when I am getting the duplicates. I've only been on T-Mobile for a few days after I ported my number from Verizon.

AW: Duplicate Text Messages
I made a support ticket @t-mobile germany. They told me, that this must be a bigger problem related to the network itself. The next time it happens they want me to call them and provide time of failure and number of sender to them.
But, it didn't happen again, yet.

How do you fix it? I ported my number from verizon but it just recently started happening (maybe the last few weeks),. Using PA, most updated version.

Did this end up working for you?
I have been having issues receiving MMS from friends that have iPhones. I have never had an issue with an android user. I receive MMS from iphones at times but it's about 50/50. I will have good signal and data and so will they. They will resend and I still don't get anything on my end but it shows as sent on theirs. I have talked with tech and I reset my APN and still have the issue. Is this simply an iPhone to android transition problem or something else?

Thievish a long standing issue with iphones due to the way it sends mms via apple servers
Batcom2
when i text my girlfriend the goodnight messgaes, you know like every good boyfriend does, she says that they break down into smaller messages and arent in order either so it takes her awhile to read them. The same goes on my end, her messgages are the same way. If anybody can help me please. She has a verizon iphone 4 and i have the at&t galaxy s4. I factory restored today and that didnt help anything.
Tell her its because its an iPhone.

My girlfriend and I are on the exact same phones and services with the same issue. It can take some time to make sense when a large messages comes through as 3 or 4 jumbled.
That's what I told her Yankee. And do you know how to fix it?

look in settings or use a diff app.
Just wondering if anyone else had this problem and if anyone has the fix for it. Maybe the apn settings are wrong with my simcard.

Make sure you have the correct APN settings for your carrier.
That's what I'm trying to find

It came setup out of the box, but the only person I can get pics FROM is someone else on T-Mobile networks also.

Search Google for TMobile or StraightTalk APN depending on the carrier you're using.
