I have had everything working on the Epic.
But now everytime I try to send/receive a pic on 3G I get
MMS transaction is failed.
Error 403: Forbidden, Retry soon.
But it works on 4G just fine. Didnt find any topics/google with this issue so just wanted to see if anyone else had this before. Im going to go back to stock in a few days to see if that fixxes it but just weird that happened.
Can you be more specific about the setup on your phone please? Stock? What Rom? Etc...

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.
First of all I am brand new here so I apologize for any ignorance I may have here! I tried searching the forums for an answer to this so if this was already addressed I apologize. I have an Epic that was recently flashed to boost and having issues with sending and receiving mms messages. It always says that it failed. I went in and changed the url to mm.myboostmobile.com and changed the proxys to 0 or 0's and it still isn't working. This is occurring on both of my epics. I know it can be done because there are corner stores by me that have it functioning perfectly. The reason I changed the proxys to 0's is because that is what I did for my Samsung Transforms and it worked great (until I allowed the system update). Does anyone have any suggestions?
Best bet would be to go to the development forums and find the thread there and PM someone who has it working.
have you figured it out I have the same problem
I suggest going to the thread called Epic on boost, MMS working.. and read it.. it tells you exactly how to make it work. Its in development. May I also suggest searching?
I am going through the exact same thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im glad im not the only one I was able to recieve and send jsut fine but now I can only recieve only on wifi or 4g, im on boost running 2.2 ec05 stock rooted, you might be sprint but I know all my proxy information is put in correctly because it was working before,I cannot send out and also my prl does not update and prl I was thinking about odin'ning down to 2.1 to see if that fixes my issue, while on 3g I just get download unsuccessful and when trying to send message just sits there and then after 20 min red x in handcent, I still have stock messaging
Boost mms
digital-hacks.com/showthread.php?93-Samsung-Epic-and-Intercept-mms-issue-with-Boost
Since the last two or three updates within CM builds, I cannot receive MMS from my friend on the sprint network, I am on Tmobile.
I simply receive the message with an attachment that cannot be downloaded. every time I click the download button it tries to retrieve the file and fails
I can receive MMS from myself and it hasn't solved the problem
the apns seem like they have had no direct changes, is something to do with my friends phone more likely or is there a cause for this? tomorrow I will try to have someone on tmobile send me an mms to see if results are different.
need some kind of answer!!! preeeezee
recently gathered info leads me to the suggestion that it is 2.3.4 itself causing this issue, as there is a whole new box called "APN Protocol" in our APN edit menu. Haven't ascertained if there is an actual fix besides downgrading to an older build.
I am having this same exact problem. I know you haven't gotten and answer and it's been a while since you posted on this topic but i didn't want to get yelled at to "use the search feature"
no one seems to have the answer. i get mms from my sister (blackberry) and mom on Verizon. (my mom doesn't even have a smart phone) but my girlfriend with her blackberry on sprint wont come through. It shows the "download" button and it fails every time i click on it.
I haven't tried iphone users yet but seems the problem is carrier specific with my phone not playing nice with others.
I am running the latest cm7 nightly build on mytouch 3g slide from t-mobile. And using the stock message app to send and receive.
(please don't tell me to use handcent or anything of the sort, i'd like an answer to THIS problem, not just a work around)
please someone help!??
Did you try changing the User Agent in the messaging app settings and seeing if it helped?
yeah, actually tried them all. I believe thats only for sending mms so the receiving phone thinks its coming form another type of device. as far as receiving mms, no luck man
on 2.3.4 ive narrowed it down to I cannot receive MMS messages from iPhones on att or verizon. Anyone else who sends me one I am able to download.
Going back to rom in my signature
hmmm, interesting cause i can verify i get from Verizon but not Sprint. And we both have t-mobile, as far as i can see
Just wish the problem was more uniform so that it would be easier to narrow down the problem
im having the same problem with SIMPLE Mobile. it seems i can send to myself and recieve from ALL GSM carriers but CDMA carriers IE. sprint, verizon, metro pcs, do not work i can click download button till im blue in the face and they wont download...any ideas??
I fixed it, or rather it fixed itself. I backed up angry birds data (the only data that matters, otherwise my girlfriend yells at me that she has to start all over AGAIN lol) using titanium. I did a full wipe, data, davlik and cache. Then installed (at the time) the latest nightly, cm7 nightly 78. Automagically fixed, at least the people I tested (including my girlfriends, which was the initial problem) restored angry birds data and donezo. Tell me if it works for you.
Hey Guys -
I had the Moonlight WP7 ROM on my HD2 working pretty well, thought i'd flash LEO71 on my phone to play with some new features and when I did, the Cellular Data portion failed to work.
I can't sync email, etc. Wifi works great and I can make calls.
I tried flashing back, but it seems (i can't quite tell - maybe someone can show me how to tell the version) that either it isn't reverting back to the old version or even if I'm back on Moonlight the cell data isn't working.
I did a quick search and didn't come up with a fix on this issue.
Could someone point me to a thread if there is one, or has anyone ran into this?
Thanks!!
So after a number of reboots, it seemed to start working...
...but now after a few minutes i get the error "Invalid SIM". A reboot fixes it.
Any thoughts?
