I managed to fix mms sending on cricket. I edited default.xml in /system/customize/MNS and Mms.apk. Now my picture message works perfectly on my phone.
So in order to install files you need to download them and then unzip default.zip.
You need to place both filies inc c:\ drive.
Now
adb push c:\Mms.apk /system/app/Mms.apk
adb push default.xml /system/customize/MNS/default.xml
adb reboot
Once your phone reboots it should work fine with picture messages.
Did anyone try this let me know how this works for you. I would post my apn settings but I use full android plan. Let me know how this works for you guys.
Now this is something we need to get the mms receive working in miui but for sprint

This for cricket it allows to receive and send picture message. I tested with verizon and t mobile customers and works realy fast.
Could you fix the one for the miui rom it only sends mms but dont receive

hmm interesting lemme try summin
Did you modify MMS.apk and fix what was causing it not to send properly? Is this a modified MMS from a Sprint rom? Or one from a Verizon roms like the rest of us have been using?
Would you mind sharing?
Also, are you capable of MMS while wifi is on by any chance?
NICE!
Thanks for sharing....
I will try and repost my results I also am on the android plan this is my apn settings..
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' standalone='yes' ?>
<apns count="1">
<apn name="CDMA-MMS" numeric="46605" mcc="466" mnc="05" apn="mms" user="your10digit#here@mycricket.com" server="NA" password="cricket" proxy="wap.mycricket.com" port="8080" mmsproxy="null" mmsport="null" mmsprotocol="null" mmsc="http://mms.mycricket.com/mycricket/mms.php" type="mms" />
</apns>
Thanks to deathsled... for the apn
WHOA, Im ecstatic!
You did it!
I confirm this solution to be working on my favorite ROM solution...
VirusROM BASE SENSE RC3 with Carbon Theme...
I could not use the adb push method as I am on the road and forgot to grab my micro usb cable...
1. I used Root Explorer to first delete mms.apk from /system/app
2. I copied mms.apk to /system/app
3. Using Root Explorer I over wrote default.xml/system/customize/MNS/default.xml
4. Reboot
5.
A. To my surprise I did not have a messaging app in the app drawer upon boot?
B. Using Root Explorer I navigated my SD card to folder I had placed mms.apk and launched mms.apk thus installing.
6. Downloaded and installed APN Backup, removed current apn.
7. I used the above posted APN.xml after modifying the "red" string with my info, thanks deathsled provided and apn.xml
8. Rebooted
9. SUCCESS!
I figure some of the steps may not be necessary how ever I documented the exact process and procedure in which I now have functioning MMS..
tritron777 Major props to you man!!! You just killed it man!!!!
This is from sprint rom mms.apk and default.xml. I did not try to send mms over wifi.
I believe that for someone using proxy they can use apn proxy by changing this mmsproxy="null" mmsport="null" to mmsproxy="wap.mycricket.coml" mmsport="8080"
Well I found out that modification to default.xml also changed the market. It restored download section. The problem with sending mms over wifi is that we mms server is protected by cricket or any carrier so it limited by range of ip addresses so we can't connect because we are not on a network. So the only way to make this work is to have stop wireless connection and start data the moment we eant to send mms.
What was the issue with the market download section?
I did not have an issue with it that I noticed?

Proxy information is not needed on cricket regardless of the plan. (im on a proxy plan and don't have any in there and its fine)
Question for you, was all that you modified was the:
Mms.apk>smali>com>android>mms>transport>HttpUtils.smali
X-SPRINT-MDN to X-Cricket-MDN?
Or were there other internal changes to the Mms.apk file needed? reason im asking is i would like to do the same for hero users as well since this seems to plague all sprint roms and i have been digging to find the root cause for awhile
That the change I made to mms.apk wasto change X-MDN to X-Cricket-MDN I guess metropc would need X-metropc-MDN. Now default.xml I changed all sprint references to
the way ZIO shows it self. Now that gets market back to the way it was before sprint section was added

Awesome thanks for the info. Going to try to correct this for hero's now as well
and now we know!
Next up, fix MMS under AOSP/non sense roms for Cricket. Or does that work and I'm retarded? I couldn't find anywhere to set the MMS size and I think that might be the only problem.
Just in case I have a backup of the Mms.apk from a brand new Samsung epic. Just email or PM me. no I do not charge for this. And if anyone can host the file i will be more than glad to share.
the Mms.apk does remove the Mms from the phone. when i try to reinstall it from the phone using root explorer it says "Parse Error there is a problem parsing the package." does anyone know what i can do to fix this error?
Not related but... anyone get Metro MMS working yet? I have a working APN from my bros Eris and I cant get it working at all... How would one edit the Mms.apk?

I keep getting application not installed for step 5B when trying to install app any way around this?
I tried with Root Explorer, App Installer, and even adb install, non worked!
my friends evo is rooted but he deleted standard email and messaging. Is there any way of getting them back?
anyone have ideas?
Find out what ROM he is running and download a copy of the ROM to a computer. Unzip the file and under /system/app you should find the apk's he uninstalled.
all he did was root, he must still be on stock. once i find the apk's do they need to be flashed or just putting them in the folder on the phone will work?
thanks
Hey fellow xda'ers, I've been looking all over the place but can't find it. I want a different look to my messaging app, but I don't want to use a 3rd party app. I like the look of the Samsung Infuse 4g mms .apk, so i downloaded the system dump and wanted to exchange my mms. apk on my HD2 with NexusHD2-Gingerbread V2.9 NAND running. But of course, it wont let me download it. How would i go about this? Ill post the .apk file from the Captivate.
you need to change permissions. I will give this a try later
Thanks a lot. I have no idea how to do that so ill just leave it to you.
Well ive tried changing permissions to match the original mms .apk and still nothing. I used ES file Explorer.
I was (like an idiot) trying to edit the browser icon by using root explorer & APK Manager
When I went to implement what I had done in APK manager into root explorer I replaced my browser.apk app and aparently what I had done didnt work
I made a backup of Browser.apk and I even tar'd it but I cant figure out how to get the browser back - when I click install it says "installation was not complete"
Extract the backup then use root explore to copy backup to /system/app then set correct permission on
browser.apk rw-r--r--.... Reboot see if that helps..
That's exactly what I did except for the reboot, thanks for the suggestions (trying it right now)
It worked Thanks
Any idea on how to change some of the icons easily without getting a launcher? I want the icons like on the Droid Bionic
I Just rooted to the new Parandroid rom and I can't figure out how to get timestamps back, thanks for the help.

The PA mms doesnt have this option. You will need to take the mms.apk out of another rom (cyanogenmod has the feature i believe) located in system/app, then replace the one in your rom that is currently in system/app. Also change the permissions to rw-r-r. A root file explorer will be needed to do this, i would recommend root explorer.
