Sprint Cannot Send MMS - Networking

The issue has been happening to me recently (as well as my girlfriend, also on Sprint) that we cannot send MMS messages.
My phone is an Epic 4g Touch on AOKP and rooted, hers is a Nexus S 4g running stock.
No idea what is causing the issue, but whenever we try to send an MMS to someone it just sits there saying "Sending..." until it possibly errors out.

You may have to set APN settings manually.Ask your service provider for the settings.

Sprint uses CDMA unless Wimax or LTE is different. Have you called Sprint tech support at all?

T-Mobile MMS issue

Ok, who is using their N1 on T-mobile?
I bought my N1 and originally used it on ATT for a few weeks and my MMS messages were normal but since I've switched to T-mobile all the incoming MMS messages I get are 5Kb. They quality is obviously horrible. It's the same on the Desire rom and on CM. Anyone else have this issue?
I am on Tmo and get all my mms the desire Rom mms is messed up that why I stop using it. I am on cyan and get all my messages.

Not getting text messages

For some reason it seems I can't get text messages. I could make calls, send text messages, go on 3g and 4g lte and I could even send SMS. But whenever someone texts me I can't receive it.
I have tried updating my prl and profile even that won't fix it. I could really use some advice....

Other than what you stated that you have already tried...I dont have a clue. Sprint could be in the process of upgrading towers in your area which typically does wreck all kinds of havoc. Call customer care and check if that should be the case. If not, try clearing cache for messaging.

This has been happening for more than two weeks. And my HTC one on the same network can receive texts just fine. Since i'm rooted i've been switching to different roms to see if I could finally relieve texts. I went from Sacs custom rom to CM 10.2 and I just flashed stock rooted MF9 but I still cant receive texts. I'm thinking about restoring back to stock to check if text's work. Any suggestions?

Call Sprint and ask them to re-provision/activate your phone. This resets the recognition of your phone to the neighbouring Sprint towers.
You might want to flash back to a stock ROM before doing so.. Just in case they ask you to do something on your end.

Mms sending but not receiving straight talk t-mobile

Just wondering if anyone else had this problem and if anyone has the fix for it. Maybe the apn settings are wrong with my simcard.

Make sure you have the correct APN settings for your carrier.
That's what I'm trying to find

It came setup out of the box, but the only person I can get pics FROM is someone else on T-Mobile networks also.

Search Google for TMobile or StraightTalk APN depending on the carrier you're using.

Lol we live in Stephens city too (my fiance and i) and we're having the same issue with our g2's. Weirdly enough, it started happening right after we rooted our phones :-/ don't know if that had much to Do with it though... Not sure what it is but there's one thing I Do know it is and that's annoying! I hate having to answer my phone constantly because I'm worried it's an important call only to find out that I probably should have ignored it! Grrr... I don't like being on the phone much either and now I'm forced to take all calls
Settings / Call / Privacy Keeper. What are the settings checked there?
Disabled should show incoming call information.
See if that's the issue and let us know the result.

Mine only does it on 4g lte if i manually switch to 3g it works and it was doing this before i rooted. And the settings in privacy are disabled

Drat. That's all I know to do.
My device is also rooted, and it's working on mine.
Wonder if it's tied specifically to when 4G isn't available.

Idk cause when im in an area with no 4g lte it works just fine. But as soon as 4g lte kicks in it acts up

But i think im gonna trade the phone in for the note 3 ole samsung has never given me any problems

MMS Not sending or recieving [Sprint]

So I just got this phone.
I was having horrible connectivity issues which I blamed for the MMS issue. Now, using the methods on here to activate bands 26/41 I'm hitting 4G LTE, though not super fast, but it's still something.
When I get an MMS (using Hangouts) it always says "Tap to download MMS message". Nothing I do seems to change this.
Is there any hope?
MMS via hangouts has been screwed up for quite awhile now and not just for Sprint - https://productforums.google.com/forum/m/#!msg/hangouts/kzg-hqiDANc/QEtQb6SC22kJ

Thanks. I guess Google messing something up was the last thing I expected. Sucks.
