I am on T-Mobile, have used a half dozen different ROMS and have no problems with my MMS.
Your TMobile Data needs to be set on epc.tmobile.com
Then go to the SMS tab, all messages, menu MMS Options. Go to TMobile MMS Server, the server address needs to be as follows: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
Then select Connect via: T-Mobile Data
I have yet to have a problem sending a MMS using this.

try this one.
had tons of problems too, with custom roms. this cab fixed all of them. install after the auto sim configuration sets to tmobile. credit goes to the ChrisGrundy, maker of the timor tmobile 6.5 rom. also sets send recieve limits to 1000k, per current tmo limits.
(hopefully this isnt the same cab you already tried...)
edit:seems to only work with standard messaging program, previous post worked for me with manilla messaging app, but have to manually increase send/recieve size limit.

Thank you for that but im still not able to download a message or send.. it says that the notification is going to remain in the inbox... I guess i might have to switch roms which really sucks.. i really liked this one lol

The fix posted by benttwig (which I made myself) is supposed to be run after the HTC connection setup wizzard. Also, it's meant for use in the USA T-Mobile network.
Do those conditions apply to you?

I just now tried to run the fix after the connection setup wizard and it still does not work. I am sure im doing it correctly but its just not working for me.. I too have T-Mobile but I may be doing something wrong...
*** Well i just re flashed the rom and now the MMS is working.. Thank you for your help

I spend sometime looking a the mms winmo settings then after some attempts to duplicate them on android I notice that everytime something was change in the APN, the data would stop working, but not when only changing the mms port..try it and it worked....so of that port # doesn't work for some please check your winmo mms port # I think for the tmobile usa it should be the same.thou ...enjoy.

proper APN settings (like the ones listed on this thread) should fix MMS for most users. certain users will continue to receive blurry images and sometimes "failed to send message" errors...these people are the ones using builds with Sense.
MMS has ALWAYS been an issue on Sense ports. i have tried numerous sense/desire ROMs on my nexus one and MMS never functioned properly. stock 2.1/2.2 never gave any serious problems, just sense so a fix will take much more than just APN settings unfortunately.

This is correct. Sense builds suffer from the file compression that HTC messenger uses. At the present time there is not a fix that I am aware of.

in WinMo I always had a problem with most roms so i had to change settings from orignal to these (yes rhodium but it works like a charm)
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Jataayu\MMS\SP]
"UserAgent"="Rhodium-1.0/arcsoft-mmsua-5.0.0.xx"
"UAProfile"="http://www.htcmms.com.tw/gen/Rhodium-1.0.xml"
is there a way to change these profiles in Android? cuz the default ones always caused MMS to be way too small... I know those settings are for WinMo and this is Android but wondering if it was possible... Thanks

thanks for the info , question do you think if someone could maybe modify the MMS.apk to help with this

im not quite sure. paul over at modaco's android forum usually releases ROMs with a custom kitchen that was filled with options. one of the options was HTC messaging or stock messaging on the desire/sense ROMs. i always picked stock simply because MMS worked like a charm. im not sure if anyone can implement the same swap on any of the builds we are using.

Tried these settings and still can't get mms to work on a stock 2.2 froyo rom. No sense. I posted about it over in the rom thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8151277&postcount=2336 to see if maybe the problem does lie in the mms.apk also. I extracted the mms config.xml but dont know what to look for.

Anybody have the answer to the overly compressed MMS in sense?

MMS settings in Android

I cannot seem to send any MMS messages with any Android rom I try. I have tried just about every different setting with no luck. Could this have anything to do with my windows based rom that's on the phone or does anyone have any ideas?

You need to program your carriers MMS APN. Google will serve you there. Apn is under settings, wireless and networks, apn when you see T-Mobile or whatever press menu, new apn and find android mms values for your carrier last entry should be mms and there shouldn't be any button to select new apn in the list.

Hi MrBox23, maybe you can give me a suggestion regarding mms apn problem.
I can receive a message that reports me I got a mms with a button to download it... the only way I found to download it is to remove the internet apn parameters and leave only the mms parameters.
Same thing for outgoing mms.
Is there any solution to this problem???
I searched around but with no success....

I don't know make sure apn is labeled mms mine coexist just fine mms has no button.
There needs to be two apns one for internet one for mms that's the way simple mobile is anyway tmobile should be same format idont know about att

Hi All, recently flashed my TMO US HD2 to NAND Android. Love it so far, although I'm having issues sending or receiving MMS. If I'm trying to send a pic text it says 'Unable to Send, Generic Network Failure'. Anyone else have this issue?
I checked that the Max Message size is set to 300kb.
TMobile MMS APN is:
APN - epc.tmobile.com
MMSC - mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS Protocol - WAP 2.0
MCC - 310
MNC - 310
APN Type - mms
Can someone assist me? Thanks in advance!!!

Any idea what build your are talking about?

Having exact same issues. Tried several of the alternate APN settings, finally go the message to go through, but the picture is very degraded. Anyone out there with the correct setting for the stock Desire build would be appreciated.

Here's Correct TMOBILE SETTINGS work flawlessly on every build i try
all settings in one apn
NAME: T-Mobile US
APN: epc.tmobile.com
PROXY: Blank
PORT: Blank
USERNAME: Blank
PASSWORD: Blank
SERVER: wap.voicestream.com
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS PROXY: 216.155.165.50 <--------- THE .50 is the major change i found.
MMS PORT: Blank
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
AUTH TYPE: NONE <--this is another changed setting. do not leave blank.
APN TYPE: default,supl,mms <-- This also seems to be important.

There are a lot of topics about this issue yet you tend to ignore searching.
Okay, for your lazy asses:
1. Have you checked/edited the dns settings in build.prop?
2. Have you checked/edited UA and WAP profiles in system/customize/mns/default.xml and system/etc/mm_property.conf?

Ok Im having the "Blurry MMS Pics" issue also. I new to some of this, But I did check the files you quoted above. I've changed the mm_property.conf file to reflect the NexusOne and Not Bravo as I've read but still no fix.
So upon reading the above post I checked the build.prop. Its showing : bravo still? Dont know if this makes a diff

Build.prop is only for dns. Try using mytouch 4g or rhodium for UA. It works for me. Send me a pm if you need more help.

jose makalolot YOU ARE THE MAN!!!!!!!!!!!! The KEY to all of this is you HAVE to erase your cache :That is, go to settings>SD & Phone storage then do a factory reset. Or via magldr, Hold down power button until bootloader loads, go to services and wipe!.
If you are using CWM, you can do wipe data, wipe cache and wipe dalvik-cache in advanced.
Thanks jose makalolot for all your help!!!!!!!!!!! My MMS is now working, not blurry!

Congratulations, you know something someone else doesn't.
You win whatever race you're running.
How about you try being decent and help someone out?
Do you even know how many threads/posts include build.prop HD2, t-Mobile, DNS, etc. etc.

i had the same problem when i first installed android on nand was my apn settings. strangely i kept losing all connection when i used a froyo build but since then i've never experienced dropped connections anywhere except basements and such

i've had that problem. it's halfway fixed. i just can't download the mms messages.

Universal Cricket MMS GB, ICS, JB Solution No Root Required!

UPDATED: 11/27/2013
FOR ANDROID 2.3-4.3
go to tinyurl.com/cricketpics on your phone.
download and install the cricket mms app to send and receive
IF THE ABOVE METHOD DONT WORK FOR ANDROID 2.3-4.2
go to mms.flashingtools.com & choose your android version
^^^^^NEWER METHOD^^^^^
OLDER METHOD
THIS IS A UNIVERSAL MMS CRICKET FIX...IT SHOULD WORK FOR MANY PHONES ON CRICKET!
I managed to find a temp mms solution for my Note 3 on Cricket wireless if you don't feel comfortable editing your build prop, or using root explorer yourself. YOU MUST HAVE TALK, TEXT, & WEB ON YOUR PHONE FOR THIS TO WORK!
This requires using two apps:
Chomp SMS to send mms(cant seem to get it to work on receiving)
Universal CKT app to receive which i provided (force closes when i try to send a mms not sure why)
First off make sure you disable any of your messaging apps "Auto Retrieve MMS" (i dont think it matters but I just have it that way)
Next: you will need to download chomp SMS from the Play store, once you install it open it and go under Settings>SMS & MMS Network Settings> go down to MMS Network Settings tab and click on APN Settings
Next step enter these exact settings:
MMSC: http://mms.mycricket.com/servlets/mms
MMS Proxy: wap.mycricket.com
MMS Port: 8080
After you've entered them go back, and go down to "Send Size Limit" and choose 300KB & below that check the box on Delivery Report (not mandatory but shows when they receive it)
Now download and install the Universal CKT App which i provided with any file manager
and open the Universal CKT App, go to settings and enable Auto Retrieve MMS (once again i dont think it matters but I just have it that way)
Now try sending a mms using Chomp SMS(sender app)
and use the Universal CKT app to receive or download it (receiver app)
If Chomp SMS failed to send make sure you are sending with your wifi turned off & double check you APN settings
IF FOR SOME REASON YOUR APN SETTINGS ARE NOT STICKING ON CHOMP SMS, ENTER THEM WITH YOUR WIFI DISABLED..AND ALWAYS DISABLE IT WHEN SENDING A MMS

hey this actually worked perfectly. The only "problem" I guess you can say is that now I have two messaging apps, the regular one and this one. Is there a way to replace the regular one with this one? Or can I just delete the regular one, which (I'm guessing) would force the cricket mms to act as the default app? Thanks in advance.

U can just disable the notifications in the settings menu on the stock one...or if your rooted, freeze it with a freezing app to prevent it from working. That way u can also unfreeze anytime

Wait a second, is this fix still needed now that Cricket is GSM and no longer CDMA?

Mine still sends fine on my Sprint note 3
