Rom With SMS and MMS Working

is there any rom out there that looks cool is fast and has mms and sms working.. on most of them that i have tried i can text but i cant send and recive pictures.

Are you referring to STOCK SMS and MMS? Most, if not all of the ROMs on here have SMS working and have at least a fix for MMS (though some you'll have to use Handscent).

download a stock rom, like Ivans, instal and run APN backup, choose new rom, install rom, and usually handcent, then APN Backup, then use APN backup to restore your old APN.
You might be able to use a linked APN here, but this is how I kept MMS working from rom to rom. Just save your APN on your card and youll have it every time.

That method never works for me. Basically Ivan's and Evil Eris have worked for me for mms, but every vanilla I've ever tried doesn't except maybe with Handcent, which I don't like.

I'm pretty sure mms was working for me on ZenEXP

THumbs up!

I'm using White Widow 4.4 and applied "CyanogenELB-MMS-fix". MMS sending and receiving both work fine (using Handcent). Haven't tried with the default SMS client, but will...

I get a small red icon next to the image in the Messaging client. It's too small for me to guess what it indicates... Looking at the MMS in Handcent, I have the rotating-in-a-circle dots suggesting it's trying to send. It shouldn't take this long though... Safe to say it's not working or isn't going to.

Zenexp works great for me incoming and outgoing best rom or there in my opinion.

MMS Problems? Sending...

So i looked around for a bit on here for MMS problems, and i couldn't find anything. When i was running WinMO 6.5 i could send MMS just fine. My friend rooted my phone with Android, and now when i send MMS it just says sending...
and never sends the message. I sent something last night, and when i woke up it still said sending...
Is there a fix for this? i do have MMS service enabled though T-mobile, and i can receive picture messages just fine. I was using stock app for the messaging, but then i though, hmm, i saw one on the market. so i used Handcent and the same problem occurred. Help would be greatly appreciated
edit; now i asked a friend to send me an MMS, and it says downloading and never downloads either!

I also have the same problem. But if you wonna receive the pictures just turn your mobile data on and then go to mms and click download. It should work but this doesn't seem to work with sending the MMS.

Same here, just need to know that modules work together with the mms.apk

Check and see if the data is enabled. That may be a solution.

The thing is I don't have data so I have it off at aall times
Edit: just turned on data for the Lulz to see If it would work, nothin :/

you have to use the ones provided by your phone carrier, he is probably on a different network so the settings wont work

[Q] Problem with mesagging

Hey XDA!,
I am currently running the typhoon 2.3.7 rom. I have tried almost EVERY rom there is but this problem still persists.
The texts i send out dont get delivered sometimes. Sometimes they get delivered after 4 or 5 hours. I recieve texts late too sometimes. Is this a radio problem? I have radio 2.15.50 installed.
Or maybe is there a problem with my network provider?
Thanks,
Adil

Do you have the right apn settings?

Go to settings > Mobile networks > Access Point Names. Most of the time these are auto-detected correctly but occasionally they're wrong. All you have to do is contact your carrier and request the apn settings (there's also a 'sim toolkit' app in CM7 and CM9 but it hasn't worked for me, I just get a message from o2 saying that they were unable to send me the settings).

Ok I have done that. The operator of Mobilink told me that APN settings are required for MMS and mobile internet only. He sent me the mesage center number. What do i do with it?

Your messaging app could be closing due to low memory try locking app in memory via cyanogenmod settings>performance>lock msging app. See if that works.

Nexus 4 can't send MMS after updating to 4.2.1

After I update my Nexus 4 to Android 4.2.1, I can't send MMS.
After I click the send, there is a toast notification told me the service not available or balabala.
I am wondering whether you have the same problem for your Nexus 4 after updating to Android 4.2.1?
Thanks.

I was having the same problem but was able to resolve it. Are you using the stock messaging app or 3rd party? Any 3rd party app I was using (GOSMS, Handcent, ChompsSMS) would not send mms but then I tried it through the stock and it worked perfectly. Something happens when trying to send through 3rd party app where it decides not to work. Not sure why.

That's for stock MMS. But I after reboot the phone it seems good, but when the receiver received the photo, it was distorted.
If I use whatsapp, it worked well.
Not sure what happend for Android 4.2.1

Looks like 3rd party text apps like GoSms have to recode mms for 4.2.1. I have the same issues.
Also on GoSms "private box" doesn't work anymore.

I am having some weird intermittent MMS issues as well - stock 4.2.1 N4. When I attempt to send a pic, it perpetually says 'sending', but seemingly never gets sent. I am also not receiving most MMS pics from others, from what I can tell? Solution anyone?!?

Has anyone been able to fix this? I'm completely unable to send MMS right now. It isn't working through the stock app, I've changed the APN setting to multiple different configurations I found, pulled and put in the SIM card, no cigar. This is driving me mad. I'm on T-Mobile if that's of any assistance.

is this still an issue with the latest update? also who has group mms checked?

It's the same for me on my GNEX with GOSMS - I cannot send or receive MMS. I'll try stock sms and report back.

It's working fine on stock messaging app - I have written to the devs and suggest you all do the same!

Can not receive or send MMS on at&t media net plan. Also can not do group messaging but I'm still researching to see if that is a normal problem with Android.
*****
update - for whatever reason i had to create two different APNs for MMS and Internet and this allowed me to get group messaging and picture messages. let me know if there are other ATT people on MEdiaNet who need assistance in this.

Same here with 4.2.1 and Swisscom provider... :crying:

I had the MMS issue where it would say "sending" and remain in that state. I also could not receive MMS messages. Even on sick messaging. I called AT&T last night and they had to put my new IMEI number in their system. I had to turn off my phone while they sent a refresh OTA. Turned out back on and all good.

Finally it works! The problem was a entry that cm10 has added to the gprs settings APN-TYPE default,supl. I deleted ",supl" and voilà, it works perfect (entry came back but since then it works). i like my phone! :good:

What exactly does the "supl" mean anyway in that setting?

i can't seem to send any picture messages, im on rogers , it just 'hang's at sending...

I'm rooted and on stock ROM, it usually sends MMS while on 3g but on wifi it doesn't, it's just stuck on sending... Help?
Btw what is supl

This whole cant send on wifi thing is new to me. It shouldnt matter if youre on wifi or not. It still uses the cell tower to send/retrieve MMS.

same here, but a buy newer fone

I have found that on att I can only use stock app to send Mms. Hopefully a third party one will work soon.

this should fix your issues
I like many of you had this very same issue. Until fixing it tonight and testing I thought I had the elite of apn's my data went from .02 Mbps to 10mbps when I removed the WAP.Cingular stock APN. And replaced it with what users on here were using and it was a insane difference. However I never did have MMS working so I was searching all over and a post on reddit had linked my to this site on another sub forum. So I tried it and bam my MMS is working. Now if there was a way to fix the MMS slideshow thing without adding an app let me know
Here's the link to fix your issues guys:

hope you find this helpful as I did.

[Q] Can't send MMS?

Does anyone else have this issue? I can send/receive MMS with the stock messaging application, but if I use any 3rd party it doesn't work. I thought it had something to do with the APN, but none of the ones I tried worked. Is there anyone who had this issue but figured out how to fix it?

bump.
can't get mms to work with Textra. works fine with stock.

figured it out, you have to manually enter the APN in the app. it auto configs as cingular instead of att

What APN worked for you? I tired all the presets with no success.

The funny thing is, is that MMS worked perfectly fine not too long ago. I assume it auto-configured APN settings the same it did then compared to now. Yet MMS will not work anymore.
I have switched to an AOSP based rom though. The thing is I can send MMS through Hangouts and Stock messaging still.
