I'm having trouble sending mms. I can view Slideshows fine and download to sdcard thru savemms app. I've tried three different ways to do it and messaging says its sent but other ppl won't receive on their phones. Ive used messaging, gallery and tried Handcent. Is anyone else having issues?
Btw, I'm rooted using CM6.0
Edit: I used handsent and sending sideshow works only after setting size of messege to at least 600k.

As in...Force Closing native messaging app? Yes
Anyone else having a problem attaching pictures and sending MMS messages via the latest 5.1.2. update to Handcent dated 6 September?
It compresses the picture and attaches it, but when I try to send, it just spins indefinitely. Previous versions worked fine. Stock S4 messaging app sends MMS messages just fine. I'm stock (MF3) with no mods on AT&T.I cleared data and cache and even uninstalled and reinstalled the app.
Any suggestions?
Nevermind . Changed MMS settings manually and now it works as it should.

This one has me scratching my head looking for answers. I noticed this problem a while ago where my friends MMS sent from iPhones were not appearing on my Messages, I have the option for "fetch MMS automatically" and all I get is the little cloud but its blank, it only shows the time it was received, I've also tried disabling the fetch MMS automatically and even when downloading them it shows me the blank cloud. The doozy comes when I tried using Hangouts just to see what it was and to my surprise I could see all my SMS and MMS conversations from my contacts and all the pictures from the iPhone contacts were shown via Hangouts but they do not show on the stock Messages app.
Things I've tried:
1) Googling for answers only resulted in fanboyism comments and speculations that led to more fanboyism.
2) At first I tried contacting my carrier and they made me reset the APN settings to default, which I did and it was after that that I realized that it was only the iPhone MMS messages that weren't being received.
3) Tried disabling the Hangouts services via the Apps option on the settings menu. Restarted phone and still wouldn't work.
4) Been restarting my phone with each setting I change to see if it helps but no.
5) Been bugging my friends to send me MMS from their iPhones and one did get through but nothing more after that.
6) Made sure their iPhones had the setting of "Send MMS when iChat isn't available" enabled.
7) Made sure my old iPhone account was signed out of my old iPhone 4 so I wasn't receiving anymore iMessages.
I'm speculating that I either need to call my carrier again which is Claro PR and explain the situation to see if it helps, or maybe go to a store. Also, I've been thinking about Rooting my phone so I can uninstall some of the bloat, which included Hangouts but don't want to go down that path yet and I don't know if it would really help anything since I already tried disabling the service via the Apps options.
Please help me figure this out, I love this phone but this thing is bugging the hell out of me.
I have had problems with mms on hangouts and the stock app on Sprint doesn't support group mms. I have been using Go sms pro and everything works fine, including iPhone mms messages.
Hope that helps.

Hmm... interesting a replacement messaging app, I would definitely keep this in mind so thanks a lot for the suggestion. I rather use the stock apps while I'm getting used to the phone since this is my first Android device but will definitely use this if resetting to factory defaults doesn't help my problem.
*Edit*
Any other suggestions for my problem are welcomed.
LG didn't enable MMS group messaging on stock messages. My HTC One and S4 had the option in settings to enable it...LG left it out. If you haven't heard, TEXTRA is one of the best, fastest, light weight messaging apps that can handle iPhone group messages without the bloat on go sms and handcent. Look it up on the playstore...ratings are great and all my Android friends use it now. I've yet ran into any issues with group texting.

Hi and thanks for the reply, I've looked up Textra and seems like a nice alternative and has a very clean interface, I'm currently using Hangouts from Google without a problem but would have preferred the stock message app. It's weird because I went to my carrier and they did some test and everything was fine, turns out its only MMS sent from iPhones that won't show through the Message app from G2. Maybe I should try emailing them to see if I can get some answers?
Yea only the Verizon variant supports group messages. I posted a thread about this in the Themes and Apps forum. Could be the cause.
All my friends group text me all the time and send MMS using the Verizon version Messaging app and hangouts. The stock messaging app world best though.

I am using Textra on my SGS4 and have been for a while now...
I have not had a problem receiving MMS until now. All of the sudden I get a message that I can't download a picture on Textra and when I do receive it, it is a blank black square and I can't even see it.
I have images auto-download to my Downloads folder and it shows up fine but when I tap it to open the photo, it shows a broken image.
All of the people I get MMS from are iPhone users. I finally had them send it to my on email and the image came to be over 2MB.
I have also tried default sms app, Hangouts, and Hello sms to see if it was just Textra, it's not..
APN checks out normal for AT&T, rooted, 4.2.2, I377UCUAMF3
(I also went to AT&T to see if they could do something about it but as soon as I told them I rooted they told me to basically leave... Nice)
Let me know if you need any more information to help get this solved.
Thanks!
I'd check for any MMS settings in textra. I know EvolveSMS had an option to intercept MMS and not let it go to the stock messenger and it never worked. Also try turning off auto download if it's on, since that can cause issues too.

Been having this issue on and off for awhile I believe it started before I rooted and still is happening on and off. About 50 percent of the time when someone send me a text with a pic I get a broken image like the image is broken and then sometime it comes through fine. It is getting pretty annoying and being the fact that the main phone im receiving pics from is another lg g2 on the verzion network, my phone is on the att network currently running cyanogenmod 11 04/27 version, I also add this issue on the stock software and a few other roms. Also when I send a youtube video now it sends in two separate texts causing the link to be corrupted.
I have had the same problems with my G2. I never knew when it would work or not. I seemed to have permanently fixed it by downloading a 3rd party sms app to replace the stock lg messages. I settled on chomp sms but I had to play around with a few other apps.
Next I set my mms max file size to 300k ....sending and receiving through chomp sms so far has been perfect. Not one failed send or receive.
I have looked all over for a stock messages app that will do the same.

I like the way chomp looks so im going to try that, so you set your mms to 300kb? My is set up at 600kb by default. Ill try 300

Yeah it was the least intrusive. Default is 600 and I tried that but I would still miss receiving MMS and also I couldn't send. 300 would always work. It may be because I use an att mvno hence the crappy service.
Play around with the settings though. Hopefully something will work for you as it has for me.
