Are you on mobile data or wifi?

yeah i tried using both wifi and my 4g data but it still doesnt work
If you have more than one APN, is the right one checked?

oddly, I was having this issue today as well. I was connected to wifi with data enabled, but I couldnt send/receive multimedia messages. I tried toggling on and off the data and wifi, but still the same results. I then wiped cache+dalvik then fixed permissions, rebooted and all is good now. the picture(s) were around 1MB each in size, so it seemed kinda weird that they wouldnt go through

Hey guys. I've had my Aria since it launched and today was the first time I tried using the IM app that comes with the phone. I turned on my wifi and tried logging on. It gives me a message saying a network error has occurred. Then I switch over to 3G and I'm able to log on no problem. Anyone else encounter this problem?

I tried logging on to my old AIM account over WIFI and it kept saying that server error or something. Don't have data so can't test it. But it seems like it won't work over WiFI.
tested on two rooted Aria's and home wiFi, works fine
I also have the same problem...the messaging app does not work when on wifi and it works just fine on 3g.
--edit--
Although I should qualify this...I'm talking about the "IM" app, which is made by HTC. The Google Talk application works correctly for me.
This is correct, "IM" is mobile network only. Google talk should work on either.

My phone is technically hooked to the network atleast it is when im at home and the wifi is hooked i havent really caught it away from home cause I Wouldnt know anyway but i do notice sometimes right after i get home ill get like 5 text one after the other. Also if i go to mobile network options and choose either access point the simple or the T-mobile and then go to networks and search i get error while searching for network every time and it has yet to find t-mobile or att or cent or anything, just error. Is anyone else having this sort of issue?

have several times including wipe data, cache and dalvik. using cm6.1.1, same results with cm and pershoot kernel.
doesnt seem like i easily find the answer so if someone could even recommend the best area to start looking foe issues that would be great. Or would it help to somehow get an error log from it if that possible? thanks, veritas
Try turning off 3G for a whole day and see if you have the problem. It could be the 3G.

Happened to me. Had to replace my SIM.
Hi there, I am using a Bell Desire Z on Fido.
The 3G disconnects when GPS activates ... and other times too.
Most often when I use google Maps. But after restarting mobile network, it would keep working for a time.
I though that there might be a bug where the 3G needed to be restarted everytime it encountered a new cell tower but now I am not so sure.
Any ideas what might be causing this problem?

Hmm... I have a G2 and never experience that problem. Well if your not rooted u should factory reset and see if that works... If you are prem-rooted and s-off u should flash a different rom that might work lol... sorry if am not to helpful

Hi yeah I am not rooted and it has been happening since I got my phone.
Could it be the APN settings? But it is not like I can't connect but more like I get kicked off.

Hmm... have you tried factory reseting the phone. Most of the times that fixes the issues on the phone. If that does not work try calling your customer care and tell them what's going on. They will reset your signal and if the issue persist you should get your phone replaced.

Somehow I deleted all APN settings but the APN name mcc and mnc and now it is stable.
Weird because I had just copied the APN settings from my milestone which worked fine.
I had tried that before but it was still unstable but I think I had left the user name and password in.
Thanks for the replies though.
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.

No issues here sending MMS with wifi on.

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.

This has frustrated me to no end. Does anybody know if there is an app that will switch from HSPDA to 2g? Preferably one I can set to a schedule? The WiFi calling app is the only one that seems to do this flawlessly, however it requires a WiFi connection.
When I am at work I do not use my phone for anything except phone calls and my calendar, so I do not have any need for 4 or even 3g coverage... And my phone just drains battery trying to establish these connections.
I've tried using APNdroid but it just force closes my phone process.
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated. I'm running elite sense 2.6 if that matters at all.

So you want to keep 2g (edge) or no data whatsoever?
