Can't download mms messages - EVO 4G General

Whenever someone sends me a pic by mms it fails to download it.. it says "generic network fail" or something like that .. if I install a new Rom would this fix the problem or install a new kernel?

is your 3g on?

and are you already rooted and running a rom and if so which one?
if this just started then you need to call tech support as its not anything you or the phone is doing, it sounds more like sprint having issues.

I get this problem when Wifi is on.
I just disable Wifi really quick and the picture downloads.

Switch from the stock messaging app to Handcent or ChompSMS...

Thanks let me see if those work.. I'm using virus Rom

[CLOSED/G2] Mass text issue

Am I the only one having issues tryin' to send a mass txt? I've tried sending a mass txt to at least 8+ folks and the status stays at "Sending..."
I've tried everything from pullin' out the battery and SIM card to fully resetting the phone but still no luck... I know its not a "network" issue because I can send the mass txt from my BB Bold 9700 without any issues.
Anyone else having this issue???

I use Handcent SMS but didn't have any problems sending mass text to around 16 people.
Hmmm ok let me give that app a shot because this **** is annoying the hell out of me!

Handcents a way better messaging application anyways with tons of customization and a million options

I had this problem before on my g1 it is a network problem not a phone problem. But try the other app and see if that works for u
Tmobile themselves have told me to send ur self two mms whenever getting a new phone not sure if that will help
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
Yeah I've already sent myself txt msg's... is this a limit for the stock msg app? I just don't see why I can't send a mass txt to 8 folks...

Mms problems

Quick question, every time I send a picture message to someone no matter what service provider all of them say that there its never a picture attached or
It says unsupported file type..and rarely actually sends them an actual picture I've tried it with the stock messaging app, handcent, go sms, and that seems to make no difference at all.
Thanks in advance.

Possibly related I cannot send an MMS unless I am attached wi-fi. Need to call TMOB and complain. It 100% of the time says "unknown network problem"
Yeah, or when I get pictures finally they are smaller than a thumbnail.

You guys need to be a bit more specific: Are you stock or rooted, which rom.. etc etc etc
If you're stock - you need to make sure you're using T-mobile's APN, not simple mobile or telkila or whatever else is there. This can be found under menu ->settings->wireless networks ->mobile networks
If you're rooted on CM - you need to try changing you user string. In MMs app its under menu->settings->custom user-agent.
Good luck.
Stock, no ROM and yes rhee son is on tmo.

Call T-mobile, although they most likely will give you the standard response about doing factory reset, etc, etc
I am just not sure why would it do with correct settings on stock rom and I don't use sms/mms to run into it myself. May be someone else can shed a light?
What should the custom agent be though?
you need to fix your APN settings.
I'm running royalginger and boned up my settings the other day, here is how i fixed it..
Settings> Wireless & Networks > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names> (Menu->Reset to Default)

Trouble sending MMS?

Is anyone having trouble with the stock messaging app stuck permanently "sending" MMS? Anyone know a fix?
If no one knows a fix for this... Perhaps someone can recommend a messaging app that works correctly in multi-app mode? I send a lot of pictures and want to be able to have gallery and messaging app open and be able to drag and drop pics into the messaging app.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Try to clear the cache for the default messaging app that will clear alot of problems. This is the first thing to do with a problem app.

Update... MMS go through fine when I'm not at home (not using wifi) but when I'm on wifi they won't go through... I'm almost certain that I sent a couple over wifi when I first got the phone last week.
Clearing the cache did not make a difference, thank you for the idea tho.

Just an FYI....MMS doesn't go over WiFi. It gets sent with mobile data.
I fixed the problem with a factory data reset ... now it will again send MMS while signed into wifi

I've had this happen a couple times. Each time I turned off wifi then rebooted the phone. Connected to 4G and sent.

Sorry to bring up an old posting, but I am still having this issue with MMS on wifi or off. I can receive them just not send them out.
