I cant seem to get my aria to download any picture messages. I get a little download button but it just keeps timing out.

yeah, mms can't get picture messages or anything through wifi, it has to be through the cell data stream. what he said.

thanks for the quick reply guys! i figured it out and then came here to post the solution and here it was! its weird that on stock i had mobile data disabled but it still worked... -shrug- i guess cm7 REALLY disables it in all ways... hopefully i dont run up too big of a bill

I am running CM6 and have never been able to DL MMS messages, even trying the above methods. When I was using Liberated F008 I was able to. But I prefer the CM build so it isn't that big of a deal.

This may or may not be the cause, but go to:
menu>settings>wireless & network settings>mobile networks>Access point names.
Click 'ATT'. Scroll down to 'APN type' and make sure it says "default,supl,mms". If it doesnt, change it.

Working MMS APN settings for HD2 Android

Before I begin, let me quote infinitybiff when I say, "You likely voided your warranty long ago. So if your phone explodes.... not it."
I recently came across a different forum that had a user that claimed these apn settings worked on his device, (it wasn't an HD2, but I had to try it) Afterwards, I attempted to send a MMS message that was almost 300kb, and it sent in less than 2 seconds on HSDPA. I also used the Xtremelabs speedtest app and scored 2328.8 Kbits/s max download, and 480.1 Kbits/s upload. On Wi-fi I only scored 1342.6 Kbits/s max download, and 271.6 Kbits/s upload.
I tested this on both Darkstones latest Froyostone sense v3.2, and BiffMod HD2 v1.1 vanilla froyo.

Guys, if you have any other carriers, besides T-Mobile, or AT&T, let me know and i will update the post.

it works for mms (for me) but how is the stability of the connection? does it still drop a lot? wasn't sure if that was the apn's fault or ppp.

The stability is directly related to ppp, the apn just determines how it goes through t-mobiles servers. Try using BiffMod HD2 v1.1, havent had a single ppp data disconnect yet.

The main problem with MMS on sense builds is when receiving the MMS, it will be compressed to 3-4Kb because of the Desire user agent being used.
AFAIK, the APN settings won't prevent that. So while these setting may allow sending MMS fast, they won't fix the compression issue.
Also, I believe using proxys may prevent some websites from displaying correctly.

Try InfinityBiffs BiffMod HD2 v1.1 and see if MMS works for that. I didnt realise till later that the MMS was still messed up for froyostone sense v3.2. It still works for me on BiffMod.

No problem dude, I'm glad I was finally able to contribute something to XDA.

I used these settings on the FroyoSense v3.2 and, my MMS is working as long as it isn't connected to WiFi.
Other than that it works like a charm.
Can anyone tell me how I can get the MMS over WiFi working? Or is it not supposed to work that way?

Thank you soooo much, these exact settings fixed my mms issue with HD2Froyo v3 !!!!!!!!!!!

I believe the MMS Proxy IP should be 216.155.165.50
That is the IP I got from the T-Mobile support site, since it's working for some it makes me wonder if MMS is not being pushed through the proxy at all.

[Q] picture messages!

I was able to put android on my hd2,but the only thing is that I can't send or receive picture messaging. What is the fix for this...someone please help

You may need to update your apn.
Google your supplier your region and apn... Eg vodafone uk apn.
Then goto settings, wireless & networks, mobile networks, access point names.. Check that what you get from google is in there.

MMS for Unlocked ATT?

So I gave my old mytouch4g to my dad, and I unlocked it for him to use on AT&T. Everything works fine except he can't send or receive MMS. Is there any way I can set that up for him?
He doesn't have a data plan and doesn't need one, so it doesn't make sense to add it just for MMS...
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

It worked! Thanks guys...
And now the internet works for some reason, even though there is no data plan on the phone. Granted it is 2G but still. When I first hooked it up, the ATT Rep told me the phone wasn't recognized in his system, it just showed up as an unknown unlocked device. I just hope I don't get charged if he uses it.

[Q] Hyperdrive RLS13 MMS issue

So I just flashed this ROM the other day via safestrap on my AT&T s4. im extremely happy with the rom. The only 2 issues im having are with MMS. I cant send picture messages whether im on WiFi or not. It just shows sending, then the circle sits there forever trying to send. I flashed the kernel modules and configured APN settings. However, I can receive MMS all the time.
The other issue with MMS is for some reason, when I receive MMS now, it starts a whole new conversation for that person in what looks like a group message. It displays my name and the person that sent the picture as the recipients. If there is a way to just keep it in the same conversation im having with that person, Id like to do that.
Ive spent hours looking on the forums to find someone with a similar issue or fix. No luck.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Did you flash the compatibility pack? Also, you can only send mms over movie data.
Sent from Black<3's I337 running Hyperdrive

I did not know the compatibility pack was needed for me. nor could i Find it.
Also, I know you can only send pictures over mobile data, but some users were reporting issues of not being able to send pictures while their wifi was turned on. Unfortunately, I cannot sent whether its on or off.

The compatibility link is right under the link to the RLS13 download in the AT&T Hyperdrive thread. Flash that and see if it helps.
I get my MMS fine with WiFi on, even while i was on Hyperdrive which i was for a good while (12 and 13)

Is it safe to flash the compatibility pack now? after Ive been using the phone for a few days.

Ok so I flashed the compatibility pack. It did not fix my issue, and now my wifi doesnt work at all. Awesome. as soon as I try and turn wifi on it kicks off immediately.

flash the MK2 kernel modules and make sure your APN is correct

Everything seems to be ok after re-entering the apn settings. However, Im back to square one with picture messages. Still cant send any
