[Q] WIFI not switching to 3G on MMS send

Can someone try sending an MMS over WIFI and let me know if your Shift switches to 3G and successfully sends the MMS. My Shift will stay on WIFI and the message just keeps trying to send and never gets sent. As soon as I shut off WIFI the message gets sent through 3G. This is whether I use the stock message app or Go Sms. I have rechecked every possible setting, removed battery, restarted, etc.
Thanks in advance.
Mine does not show it switching to 3g, but messages send just fine while connected to wifi. I'm using nfx deodex Rom

Thanks for trying it. Just to clarify... these are messages with a photo attached? In other words an MMS? It is my understanding that these types of messages must be sent via 1g or 3g. They cannot be sent via wifi.
Having the same issue here using GO SMS. Pictures would not send until I turned off WiFi. Don't have this issue with the EVO 4g.

Ha, funny you said that. I also have an Evo 4g and it also works flawlessly in that respect. Is this a known bug with the Shift? It's really annoying. I'm planning to wipe the phone later today and reload it. I wonder if I'll be wasting my time.
Yes, mms picture message. Had WiFi turned on. Sent without a problem.

Just to update... I did a factory reset and all is well now. Not sure what trashed it in the first place but a reload was the cure for me. Hope this helps you out.

MMS Notification but when i click there is no message

So this has now happened to me twice, yesterday being the second time.
I'll get a notification for a message at the top, both times it has been after I already had another SMS message that I had not checked yet, then when I click on the notification to bring up the messaging app there is only one of the two messages waiting there in the list. Both times I have texted the person back and they did indeed send me some type of picture message. After resending I receive it the second time. It makes me worried that maybe we could be losing messages and not even know it. It seems to me this is a software bug (vs. Carrier problem since the phone shows a notification for the message)
Has anyone else seen this problem?
I'm on stock 4.2.2 but the first time it happened was on 4.2.1 about a month ago.
Yea, happen to me as well when I was connected to WiFi. Turned off the WiFi, and told them to send them again and it received them that time. Maybe an issue when connected to a WiFi connection?

I think you have to be connected to data in order to receive a MMS message. Wifi will not work. You will get a notification but no picture.
Of course you can't receive a MMS over a wifi, the problem is that the phone is not switching over to mobile data to receive pictures while connected to wifi. I also have this problem.

I don't quite understand your statement. You say you can receive MMS over wifi but then you say the phone has to switch to data in order to receive the picture? How is that different that what I said?
Sorry, autocorrect stole my apostrophe t. I meant cant as in can not.
I have the same issue. The slide down text msg notification icon reported 3 texts from 3 different senders. When I clicked on the icon I am taken to my text msg inbox but only 2 of the 3 text msgs where there. I then verified with my friend that he did indeed send me a text msg. I have never had an issue receiving MMS texts over WiFi. I use WiFi exclusively at work and home. So I had created the same type of thread on the androidcentral forums.
That's exactly what happened to me today, twice! My girlfriend sent me three MMS, I got the first one and two notifications after. But when tapped, all I saw was the first MMS.
My connection was poor, I thought that could be the cause...

Yea I was wondering if it is a carrier issue or if its LG or Google ?
I think a part of the issue is that the phone creates the notification the moment it recognizes that there is an incoming MMS instead of when the MMS is actually received and able to be viewed.

Well that would be fine if it is a preview of the MMS before it arrives, but when it never arrives is where the problem is. There has got to be a solution. I can't help but wonder whom has sent me a text of which I did not receive.
this happens to me also. its annoying. but i do have my wifi on all the time, so I will try it without wifi on, and see what happens.
I'm having this problem as well and I don't like any of the third-party apps. Has anyone found a fix? Thanks.
Well, I contacted T-Mobile, my carrier, and they went through a lot of troubleshooting. It basically came down to turning on mobile data alongside WiFi because apparently MMS msgs need data to send and receive. Sucks, but there it is.

[Q] Straight Talk MMS (Different than the normal)

For some reason I can only send MMS messages if I'm not connected to wifi. If I connect to wifi it will just try to send forever, and I've noticed that the wifi is trying to download and upload instead of the data part. But as soon as I disconnect from wifi and try to send an MMS no problem at all. Anyone ever seen this before?
I Believe this is normal.. Mine does the save thing.
Even on data I sometimes have to send MMS twice for anything to send.

Can't recieve/send MMS or smilies while on a call

Hi,
I've had my LG G2 for a week tomorrow, and I've noticed that when I'm on a call with my best friend, I cannot download or send MMS from anyone, nor can I even send smilies. When trying to download a MMS, a popup comes up saying, "Currently unable to download. Please try again later." When trying to send a MMS or smiley, a popup comes up saying, "Currently unable to send your message. It will be sent when the service comes available." Which it does once I get off call, but it's kind of frustrating that I can't send those things without ending the call, and then calling back. Can anyone help? It would be greatly appreciated, please and thank you.
if on cellular network only your device cannot use same hardware for voice and data. Only one antenna and its in use.
Wifi goes through different hardware so no issue if you were on both

Voice/data only work simultaneously when you're connected to LTE if you're on Verizon.

Cant send but can receive sms

So it was working yesterday without issue. I can recive text but cannot send them with default messenger. If I use hangout for sms it will work. All sent messages said failed. I have cleared messenger from apps and even gone as far as a factory reset. I am at a lost.
Tried with WiFi calling on and off. WiFi on and off. Safe mode. Nothing is letting the default messenger send.
My only luck I had once was while it was booting I was able to send a message
Did more trouble shooting. Problem is while on lte. Called and opened a ticket with the engineer
Do you have WiFi calling enable? I heard that played an issue for some people

Have tried both on and off. Instant fail

I had the same problem I turn off wi-fi calling and Voice over LTE the fix the problem for me. I can send and receive sms/mms .
I also have intermittent problem sending sms/mms. It would report as failed but the other end actually receives it. Will try disabling wifi calling.
