MMS won't download..

9 time out of 10 if someone send me a picture to my epic.. I have to download the picture and its unsucessful, almost every single time.. and its not just MY phone, because my girl has the same phone and her phone does it too. Mines is rooted, her phone is just stock.. how can we fix this problem??

Are you trying to download them over wifi? Apparently sprint doesn't like that, try it on 3g

This. Sprint's MMS server is not accessible over the public internet, thus you must download on 3G.

Most Sprint phones will automatically run the data transfer over 3G (without manually turning off/on wifi), not the Epic though.
That said, many of the custom ROMs resolve this issue (including Heroic, which I run).

Thank you sooo much to all that replied.. because that's was the problem. I had my wifi on.. I guess its time to get a custom rom..

ATT hd2!?

I'm still pretty noobish with this phone, and was wondering which roms run nicely with at&t. There's a few roms I've tried and my data and mms is all messed up. Thanks!

Roms don't function differently for different carriers... you just need to set your correct apn to get data and mms working right.

I've been using the cleanDROID rom in my sig.
Speedtest.net app I got +2700kbps for download and about +400kbps upload.
SMS and MMS work flawless.

No mms picture send

Running cyanogenmod 6..1.2,mod version 4.4openswift,bld frg83 ...cannot seem to be able to send mms pictures can anyone help...rspct.

Im running cm 7 2.3.3 and have the same thing on Orange UK. Tried mms settings but no luck.

Just noticed your on T-mobile. Orange and T mobile have joined. Wonder if they dont like CM mms? I might reflash to 2.1 to see if it works there, never tried before.

Yeah same t mobile had them onit today no joy didn't tell them I was running cm! Can send pic e mail but not mms!

Orange are having trouble with 3g and data across the board. Even on unmoded 2.1 - If I set 3g, my phone goes stright to answerphone and dosnt ring. I rang Orange, they said theres nothing they can do. My phone has to sit in 2g all the time. Even then its patchy. I get good signal on 2g and 3g! Im getting it unlocked and will try o2.

Reflashed to stock 2.1 and mms now works. Dunno what to say.

I will have to stick to 2.1 until its sorted out. Strange how no one else noticed it.

Yeah pisses me off but gunna trawl modaco see if anyone responds? Don't want to change carrier?

Keep us posted. I switched over this afternoon and am going to give this a try tonight. Thanks.

Nothing to keep posted. I've been using that technique from the beginning and have had no trouble.

I tried it on my galaxy s3 using t-mobile hot spot and it kept redirecting my me to sign up for the hot spot plan. However, I did use a different WiFi router app and was able to tether. I am rooted btw.

Tether did not work with my S3, but does with my G2 and current S2's Did not get a chance to try a different rom on the S3 before sale tho so not sure about that.

Probably a stupid question on XDA, but are you rooted and running custom roms on your S2s? I'm interested if anyone has tried this on stock firmware with one of thee non-root tethering apps. I would test myself but I can't remember the last time I had a phone with stock firmware.

Yep I used both the s2 and s3 sucessfully.....
There is also another topic explaining another method of replacing ur apn in the general subforum of the tmobile s3
As for the s2 there is threads for apns and then for user agents
Live throws a code stating that some items may not be available but playing and netflix green light
Updates you have to dl on ur pc then transfer it to ur xbox by disc, etc storage medium
I have also changed my dns servers but I can still use tmobiles dns and do both
I use to have a full live experience until the last 360 update and now something borked....nebody have ideas? Lol

So I should have no problem using my sensation as a hotspot to power my roku box to stream Netflix to my t.v. right? Thanks!!!

Whats your opinion?

Im still running the froyo build from DFT but there are some problems, 3g doesn't work, WiFi works only after maybe 10 minutes then needs to re-activate WiFi, and calling sometimes does not work. It makes connection but the sound is distorting.
So. I'm looking for a Rom that only runs from my phone. No sense required. And hopeing that my 3 issues are resolved in this Rom.
I'm only running what'sapp, I surf a little and a couple of maybe 1mb apps, that's it basicly, so not much app data needed.
I'm hopeing there is a android 4.0 or higher Rom out there but 3.5 is really the minimum.
What Rom would you guys advise.
Thanks in advance!

Crud, can a mod maybe change tour into your in my title. Little typo :-S

Re: Whats tour opinion?
NexusHD2 ICS, NexusHD2 Jelly Bean. Both ROMs are very fast and stable.

You can change the title yourself, just go to edit in the OP then advanced or something like that. As for ROMs, just pick one above ICS and flash it, you're probably going to like it.

Hi i installed nexushd2 ics and it works better then the froyo build
But the 3g is still not working. Im on vodafone network. Everything else seems to work fine. I installed it useing the nand install for leo 1024. It worked though.
Any idea what i would be doing wrong ?
Thnx guys

Do you have the APN set?

Could you explain what that should be ?

I don't know the exact path but it goes something like this:
Settings > Network > Mobile Network > Access Point Names
If you see an empty screen, you don't have any APN set and you need to set up one by pressing the menu button > New APN.
A search could have possibly brought up the same thing.

Oh that, i thought there was something with the installation of my phone or something So many abbreviations i somethings go coocook xD
Well i checked and i set up the same APN as my One X, Same settings. Still no 3g

Is it like, there is no data at all or you are just getting edge?

No data at all. No internet icon whatsoever except antenna (gsm) and WiFi (if enabled)

Solved,
Turns out my ISP Blocked the internet for some reason. But the subscription I had included a data package. So why sell a data package but block it.
Funk for the support cause I still needed to setup the internet. So I checked the things you guys told me to.
Thnx
