hero roms+sms

Hi I'm really sorry if this is in the wrong section or if I did something wrong when posting this. But I have a G1 and when running hero roms its a known issue that we don't get all sms or mms, so I was wondering (just got my mytouch today and already rooted and all that jazz) when you people with the Mytouch3g from tmobile do you get all your sms and mms when running hero roms?
Thank you to those that make all this possible =)

i didn't get all my sms or mms. also bt doesn't work which is why i switched back to cyanogen until this issue is fixed. however they say if you change your priority settings to high that you SHOULD get mostly all your messages.

=O
Well I don't use bluetooth often enough to NEED it so I'm fine with that, but the message thing is my biggest fear. thanks for your response though =] I'm just gonna stick with cyanogen until hero roms are more "usable"

MMS ISSUE

I could not pull any multimedia texts while on wifi. After contacting t-mobile I found out that there is currently a bug that they are aware of. You cannot pulll mms messages while on wifi. You must be on a data service in order to pull them. They are working with HTC to fix this problem.

That happened to me the first day I got the phone. I thought it was a sim card error. It never even occurred to me that I had wifi connected until you just said that now...

i think this was a bug on one of the earlier builds of my g1, like way back in the beginning

I was wondering if any of you have heard any news on this issue. Or maybe a work around besides turning off WiFi. It is so frustrating . I had this same issue with a Blackberry 8900 a while back.

I've had this same problem since I got my phone. I guess we just have to wait for Froyo and hopefully that fixes it

So it seems more like that its a tmobile thing because my wifes cliq was doing this, since we dont have data turned on with her phone and i just bought the slide and its probably the same thing...but i just try to send a pic on wifi from her slide and my nexus and neither work

Any fix for the mms issue yet?
Is anyone finding Froyo to have fixed the problem? Any workarounds? Just wondering as this is a major problem with this awesome phone. Can't send ANY MMS messages at all!

I can im always on wifi not always but like 95 percent

You can not send or receive mms over WiFi it has to be pulled from the apn and you can only pull from there when you have a data plan it is a way to keep people from using phone without data plan this applies to all Android phones

[Kind of solved] ATT Edge and MMS solution?

I can find plenty of discussions on fixing t-mobile mms problem but nothing on att. All the oncoming is right from all the server and stuff I found online or where ever. Tiny mms will go SOME TIMES but anything larger than the head of a pin and it just sends forever
Whats worked for me:
Use a PPP enable rom and make sure to set 2G only in wireless/mobile networks/ use only 2G networks
Im now using shubcraft 1.5 and its working great

I hear you, no love for AT&T MMS...

Working!!
Woot! Woot!
I recently installed froyostone v2 on my T9193. This now has ppp instead of rmnet. Well........speedtest.net said consistantly over 3000kbps down and 800kbps up. On rmnet I got maybe 800kbps down at best and 10kbps up. On another thread I mentioned that I could send MMS's as long as they were under 10k. I just sent about 10 MMS's all over 300k (even though HTC messaging said a maximum of 300k). So it did have to do with the connection.
So when you read about those on t-mobile working and not working....I bet the working ones are using a build with ppp and those not working are usiung rmnet.
Has nothing to do with incorrect or alternate APN settings. Had to do with the speed of the connection. All downhill for now.

Yeah i figured that yesterday and tried v2, but i couldnt get a connection at all!
BTW your HD2 T9193 is capable of connecting 3g. try sending on edge, which is what this topic is about

Edge or 3G should not matter. The issue was PPP. Have you gotten a connection working with PPP yet and tried to send a MMS?
Maybe next time I won't try to help since some people get so aggravated. This forum is filled with rude members.
Edit: Just turned WCDMA off and on edge only. Showing 200kbps down and 190kbps up. And again sent 2 pics over 300k successfully by MMS.

I booted froyostone v2 the other day and it wouldnt pick up my data connetion at all. I booted it for that PPP reason alone, thinking it may allow sending of mms. All the APN settings where in but it just wouldnt allow my data (edge only) to connect.
I wasnt trying to be rude, i was just making you aware that the topic was for us who only get edge are looking for the solution. Other factors void from topic, and thats where your T9193 comes in. Its a differenet ball game with that phone.
Im going to go re-download and boot v2 again and list exactly what happens

Try this when you boot. Go to the wireless settings and turn off cellular data. Then turn it back on. If it connects without freezing then you should be good to go. If it freezes then you will have to soft reset and boot again.
This may sound stupid but might be worth a try to keep it from freezing when turning connection back on. Disable cellular data then click to enable it again. Immediately scroll the screen up and down. Last 4 times I have done this my phone did not freeze. Might just be a coincidence. But after it connects again I have a working PPP connection.

Ya know, i just read that in the thread a few minutes ago, posted by you, and i just muffed it up. I was doing that and it froze Battery pull
It was able to detect att network once i disabled the data connection though, so thats good. Farther than last time.

HEY its working !!!! WTF though, im seeing the "E" for edge, BUT i dont see the working arrows when data is pushing either way.
Sent pic to the wife and she got it, sent pic to myself and worked. Why is it compressing to 13 and 14kb though

Glad you got it working. I thought the same thing about the compressing. I use handcent for sms. I just picked a pic that was 912kb to send to myself. That is how I test most of the time. When I receive the MMS it says 32kb. But I think that is before the actual pic downloads. When I actually check the message details it says message size 438KB.
With this build I cannot set max MMS size to 600k. Max is only 300K. Check to make sure that you have yours set to 300K. You do this through the standard messaging app itself.
I just switched back to the standard messaging app and it says the pic is 427KB. Go back to the "all messages" screen and hit the windows start button (menu button now) and scroll down till you see maximum message size. Make sure it is on 300K. Going to look into changing this to 600K. I think I saw a way.
Goodluck.

I just made a switch to shubCRAFT_v1.5 because the froyostone v2 didnt support led notifacation AND i hate sense. I did install launcher pro, but still, i need the led notifcations.
The shub works for me with PPP out of the box, after a reboot, and has the led support i need, and no sense included. I just started messing with it, so, well see....
So it seems the resolution for us edge users is we need PPP enabled roms !!!

Us 3G users need PPP also. Trust me. Even the 3G connection is horrible with rmnet. Yes I don't like sense either. Just too much garbage going on in the background. And I definitely hate this google ads bar that keeps appearing everywhere.
Froyostone v2 was the first PPP build I have tried. Let me know how everything works for you with this shubcraft build please. Would like to know the results from someone not using TMOUS if you know what I mean.

It seems to take forever for the connetion to come up, IF it comes up.
BUT i found that if i set to 2G ONLY in settings, the connection comes up every time and fast. Not sure what a 3G capable set would do. But thi may help some other edge users to get a PPP enabled rom working nicely. MMS works great this way

Not receiving incoming calls when 2G/3G etc connected

The other day one of my friends told me that when he rings my phone lately (since I've started using Android) it always diverts to my voicemail. I did a bit of testing, and figured out that is seems to be happening when 2G/3G data connection is active. Has anyone else had this problem, and can a few people test this out?
I've tested this with 2 radios:
Leo_RADIO_2.12.50.02_2
Leo_RADIO_2.07.51.22_2
and 2 android builds:
30.08.2010¦ ?shubCRAFT 1.5?CM6 Final?¦ ?Kernel: ElBartoME 2.6.32.9 #1? ¦
New Nexus One Android 2.2 Build FRG33 [ mccm v1](5.9.2010)
I have tested on WM and this problem isn't happening there. I am on O2 UK Post Pay.

I have this problem and it happens when my phone is sending/receiving data, not when the data connection is idle. It happens on WM, Android, and on my iPhone too. My provider says this is normal and nothing can be done.

Switching from 2.12 radio to 2.10 in my sig helped this a lot.
Sent from my HD2 mattc froyosense using XDA App

I gave 2.10 a go, but it seemed to make little difference for me.

I had the same problem with the 2.12 radio. I wouldn't get any calls from sprint users.

This is normal with GPRS aka 2G. It's like you go online with a modem and a phone line in the old days (dial-up). Even when you are trying to send a txt, and a call come in at the same time, the text sending will fail. This is very annoying.
not sure about 3G tho, some say that the 3G can handle data and calls at the same time.

I get this too, Plus when i recieve a call i cannot hear the caller for 10 seconds or so ? but the caller can hear me straight away ?
I did post this in the HD2 general thread but got no responce...
Have changed sim card as i was told this could be the issue but no luck also tried various radios/Builds inc android again with no luck..
Looks like were gonna have to live with it

GPRS/Edge does not necessarily allow simultaneous voice
Well I had no idea. I thought that one of the main advantages of GRPS/Edge was simultaneous voice and data, but I guess not. Apparently it is dependent one the cellular network configuration/capacity.
Here's an MSDN article related to it (not that I consider MS a reliable source of anything, but worth a read )
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb416348.aspx

I had this exact problem. For me it started after using android on my HD2 then whenever i had my phone on UMTS i could call it with another phone and 4 times oout of 5 i would ring all the way to voicemail and never notify me. I first thought it was ATT but i tested my sibling's phone and it was fine, i even switched SIM cards. the problem seems to have gone away with my HD2 after two weeks however I ended up ordering a telus desire with ATT bands. Although now my HD2 reboots in android randomly whenever using UMTS data.

This is what I get as well, except the caller doesn’t hear me for 5 secs or so. I end having to say “hello” 3 times before they can actually hear anything and by that time they usually hang up. I’ve had this problem with WinMo as well, using Telstra on Rogers. It’s kind of annoying since I end up having to use daytime minutes to call them right back.
I found that some x.51.xx radios helped but Android as far as I know is only compatible with x.50.xx radios. So hopefully a new radio will help with this though I’m not really counting on it.

I thought I was going mad
I have the same problem but only just found out. I use my Google navigation a lot, but just discovered when I do that incoming calls are routed to voicemail. I have tried 3 different Radio's from the recommended Leo_RADIO_2.15.50.14 down to 12 and even 08 nothing seems to work.
I have also tried different ROM's from HD Desire to Gingerbread, again no difference.
Not sure if the problem existed on the SD ROM's but it is sertantly an issue on the NAND ROM's.
I am using RMNET as this is the only one that seems stable on O2 in the UK.
This problem is driving me crazy.
Someone else please HELP!!!!

[Q] RoyalMiui ROM

This is the second time i've asked this question. I hope someone can assist me this time. I flashed the RoyalMIUI rom however couldn't get wifi calling to work. i know about the issue were is FC's when you first turn on wifi and you have to pull the battery out. but i've yet to see a real answer to the actual wifi calling. can someone please help!!!
thanks.

I think I read somewhere on that roms page that wifi calling doesn't work with that rom but I'm not sure

I appreciate the response from both of you. I just wanted to verify if it worked or not. The roms awesome other no wifi calling feather.

The rom has voip its build in gingerbread since gingerbread has built in sip intergration which is more of a true wifi calling. The wifi calling app for tmobile isn't really wifi calling.

I not sure don't have a bluetooth headset to find out if it does work. Only thing is try a different kernel. See if bluetooth is working with out syncing with the car first.
