[Q] No group MMS thread setting... - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Wondering if anyone else is having this problem. I got my Nexus 4 (Yeah!), started it up, logged into my google acct, everything started downloading/restoring from google. I checked out the Messaging app and settings, and noticed a "group messages" setting. Sweet!!! But then I got a system update notification. I obviously installed it. After installing it, I used gobackup pro to restore my messaging threads. NOT THE APP, just the threads. Checking the settings again, the "group messages" setting was gone! Just gone! Not sure if it was the system update, or the thread restore, but I am perplexed. I've done 2 factory resets since, but the setting is still gone. Messaging ver. is 4.2-57622 or something like that (don't have the phone with me at the moment.) I'm guessing it had to do with the system update, and that is why it's still not there after the factory resets, but, I really have no idea. I am stock, no root, or unlocked bootloader. Stock, pure stock (the reason I bought a nexus device). Any help or related info would be greatly appreciated! I've searched everywhere, and seem to be the only one with this issue. Any screenshots of anyone else's messaging settings running that app version would help too. Thanks

Hmm, I've done the OTA update and I've still got the setting.

Same here. The OP's problem is very peculiar. OP, what cell provider are you using? I doubt this is it, but is it possible that this option isn't available on certain cell providers and Google removed it in the OTA? That is, could it be dependent on the SIM that's in your phone? I doubt it, but I'm just trying to identify some variables. I'm on T-Mobile and have the option.

You may be right, cause I am only on wifi right now. The phone is a Christmas gift, so I am only messing with it to make sure that I like it, and don't want to return it. So it would make sense that not all carriers support this type of messaging, and wouldn't show until your phone recognizes a supportive carrier. Like you said, it may not be the case, but the more I think about it, the more it makes sense. The only variable is that the setting was available pre OTA, but disappeared after the OTA.

Nexus 4 here using Tmobile. Group MMS option removed after OTA update..what is going on here this needs to be fixed

I'm not sure why this isn't getting more exposure... Fixing the group messaging was a huge step and now it appears to be broken for some.

Did you do any kind of restore thread from a previous messaging version?

Ok, here's the deal. I have a N4 running 4.2.
Everything was working great up until today as far as group messaging. I switched from ATT to T-Mobile last night. Now the option appears to be gone, and it's not working anymore. Is this something specific to T-Mobile's network? Do I have the wrong MMS APN settings or something?

For T-Mobile, check the APN settings.

Did the 4.2.1 update and the option is back. Weird.

I am still seeing this issue but on a Galaxy Nexus.. I had the group mms option on 4.2 and it worked great.. I hadn't used group mms since I got the 4.2.1 OTA update the other day but I just did and back to separate threads and the option is gone like the OP.. any ideas? I know this is a thread about the Nexus 4 but this is the only thread I could find on this issue..

I'm still on WiFi only, so I'm not sure if mine will work or not once I have a sim. I'll update my status after Christmas
Sent from my GT-P3110 using xda app-developers app

Anyone got a solution? I'm on 4.2.1 on AT&T and I don't have this option.

I'm waiting till I actually get a Sim in my phone to continue this thread. It seems to come and go based on different carriers and APN'S. I will update in a few days.

Are you talking about the option to "use MMS to send a single message when there are multiple recipients"? I'm on SIMPLE Mobile (t-mobile's network) and i have the option. FWIW.

I'm having this issue still on a galaxy nexus on 4.2.1 on tmobile. As far as I know I never had the option, even in 4.2.
Ive tried wipung and reflashing multiple different roms, and even flashed a modded apk with no success at getting the option to show.

OK, so to put this topic to bed. I just got my phone setup with att, and the group messaging is back! :thumbup:It must be carrier dependent. Anyone having the issue should go tho their carrier and see if they support group messaging, and see if they can help you set it up.

I'm on 4.2.1 on a galaxy nexus with T-Mobile, no setting. My brother is on a nexus 4, same network, he has the setting. So it is not just a case of carrier dependency.

Are you guys talking about this setting?

Sprint's new emergency alert system on any 4.1 NS4G roms

I was playing around with some different aosp roms the other day and I thought since the new emergency alert system Sprint was so kind to give us in the 4.1.1 ota update is such a great new feature to have maybe I should try to get it to work on a rom other than the OTA. Well, it turns out it 'just works' by default!! The app will not install the traditional way, but if you copy it to /system/app and change permissions to rw-r--r-- it works! The menu shows up in system settings>wireless & networks more> cell broadcasts

I thought many people may find this useful. I haven't tested it on any other carrier' device or any other model other than nexus s 4g (d720)...I would assume it should work on all devices in the sprint network, though! Please report back with any success stories from other devices
For those wondering what it is, because I had no clue about this:
http://www.fema.gov/commercial-mobile-alert-system
FEMA wow, no way is this coming near my phone, eff that
YAY! Now I can be informed via Klaxon that rain sometimes causes flash floods. If you use this, keep your phone on mute or people in theaters and conference rooms will hate you. Personal embarrassing experience talking here.
I would be okay with it if you could shut off the alarm. Trust me, it's nothing like any other notifications else that exist on your phone. I want to know about Amber Alerts, and very severe weather events, but this appears to be all or nothing. Imagine the chaos if everyone had this on their phones and they all went off at once, which I assume must be the intent. Talk about shouting fire in a crowded theater. Not well thought out, but neither is FEMA.
for the record this was on an epic 4g touch, i assume the same behavior on anything else unless the federal govt is building device specific apps

did you not see the screenshots I posted?? There are toggles for different types of alerts. And you can turn notifications off, as well as test notifications. Also, if you don't like your alarm notification, just change it. We live in a world where rooted phones are possible and you can do these things It's as easy as swapping ogg files!
no, actually i did not, thank you for calling my attention to them. apparently pictures get cut out when i access xda from behind a firewall, literally looks like there's nothing there on pc, but tapatalk on my ns4g has them. Maybe they are getting it right, I will have to take another look at it. When I found it on my nonrooted e4gt, it looked nothing like this.

Great rom.
I tried playing around with it and for some reason it wont work.
Idk i really want to have this feature but for some reason i cant figure it out.
Lets just review.
I move the apk to /system/apps.
Then fix permissions to rw--r--r.
Reboot
Fix permissions in cwm.
Reboot check settings?
Is there something im missing?
Try accessing it from Messaging app. Hit settings.
If I can find some time this afternoon I will flash RBJ and see if I can figure out what's up
I will also look into it also but not for myself, lol. I hate the alerts.
This works on today's port off rasbeanjelly for ns4g by rustyjay. I used root explorer to move the apk to system/app, changed permissions to rw-r--r--, and rebooted. No need to go to cwm.

@glenroebuck: There are two ATIV S models; I'm guessing you got the SGH-T899M since it has LTE? If possible, please test a couple things for me:
1) Go to Settings -> About -> More Info, and list the OS, Radio, and Firmware version numbers.
2) Go to Settings -> Internet Sharing, and try to enable it (even if your plan doesn't support it, tell me what error message you get).
I'm trying to track down something that might be a problem with the phone or might be a problem with the OS or might just be a problem with my device, and there aren't many USA users of the SGH-T899M it seems.
os 8.0.10211.204
Firmware 2212.12.12.2
radio 2212.12.12.2
radio firmware 0.0.0.0
turned it on and it told me there is no cellular data connection to share right now.
Damn... that's the same error I get (even though it's blatantly false; I get that error even while I'm streaming music and downloading apps over said data connection).
Same version info too. They apparently have March and April 2013 updates, but those might only be for the other ATIV S model... I can't get them myself.

that is weird I only ever got it when you had me test it although today in my home city of clevlelad I got lte in some places but not near my home and it completly lost signal...like emergency calls only. I had to reboot to get it back. Did not have those issues in anaheim and Las Vegas both lte areas - but we are not official yet here in cle.
You're on T-Mobile, right? Set the APN to "fast.t-mobile.com" (no username or password) and it should work on both HSPA+ ("4G") and LTE (you'll briefly lose data when switching, but it comes back quickly; if that's too annoying then disable LTE). I think the APN info built into the phone for T-Mobile is wrong or possibly just outdated, which is why it doesn't switch to LTE gracefully and also why tethering doesn't work (tethering uses a different APN, "pcweb.tmobile.com", note the lack of a hyphen in this one).
People with the other model ATIV S have reported that after installing the April firmware update, they're able to install an app called "APN" that automatically configures their phone, including enabling tethering (although probably not LTE, which I believe is unavailable on that model). There is an app called "APNs" in the store for the T899M, but it doesn't have the auto-config option, nor the ability to set a tethering APN.

I used the apn app from samsung to configure fast.t-mobile.com when I was in vegas to get lte to work. It has been working ever since only yesterday was the first time i experienced no network after coming off LTE but again it is not official here in Cleveland so that might be the issue.
Other than that I love this phone. Since I have had a zune account for ever - if I shazam a song it lets me dl it directly from xbox store (zune account = xbox music acccount) Myappfree is a great way to get good apps for nothing. (they have a daily free app) and really any app I would use on android or iphone - there is the same or a similar app here. and the Ativ is such an pretty phone lol...people always ask me "is that the new s4?" then I explain it is a windows phone and they get a blank look

I'm curious about the benefits of rooting these days. I use to flash custom ROM's back in the day of the original Motorola Droid, and then after a stint with an iPhone 4, then Verizon-adulterated Samsung phones, I'm finally back to a rootable phone with the Moto X Pure. I have experience with rooting but it's been quite a while, so here are my questions:
What's changed?
Is Xposed as necessary as it used to be?
Are custom ROM's as stable as stock?
Will Marshmallow render a lot of the benefits of root useless?
I've seen some people refute the benefits of rooting since android has evolved over the years. So I was hoping some of you would be able to chime in.

A bit yes. Its not terrible, but by because the curve it will tip from side to side / up and down (this is without the bumper or any case on). With the bumper on, its about the same as without.

Phone ruining FLAW?? How is it a flaw?
If you want a flat phone you have several options in the market.
That "flaw" is one of the things us Moto guys love.
-Funk
okay, how about these. I find I am REALLY missing the toggle switch for a "mute/vibrate" setting. I know you can hit the volume and STOP notifications, but I want a quick setting to move the phone to vibrate and still receive notifications. Any third party way? It's already burned me going in to a meeting when I first got the phone and having that insane ringtone go off. Scared the crap out of the people next to me. Thought the joint was haunted.
I didn't think I would miss wireless charging as much as I do, is there a third party solution? Is the back removable by someone (like me) of limited skills and ability? Also, I am digging the Moto notification screen (trial and error). If I am in a "trusted" place, (so it won't lock), I swipe up to access the notification(s)? right or left to dismiss? down to the lock screen? Or up is dial pad?
On Verizon, anyone have visual voicemail working? I keep getting an error.
so far I am liking the phone, I have the screen crackle, miss the HD calling from Verizon with the built in video (guess we'll never get that?). Thanks for the help

What does your APN look like? Go to Settings-more-cellular network settings-access point names then click on whatever is in there. Mine says

apn type default,mms,supl,hipri,fota

Also in the menu on the APN page you can try and reset to default option.
I have noticed that there is a new Messaging app icon. Is the app itself unique? And does someone mind posting an apk if possible?
Thanks
Is anyone else having problems taking pictures from their moto x via their moto 360 app? The app loads on my watch when I open the camera but pressing the shutter on the watch doesn't do anything. Any thoughts? For now I'll build a tasker profile to do this, but it would be nice if it would work how its intended to.

Yes it should, you just need to check which bands your carrier uses and check them against the available bands on the phone.

I've done quite a bit of searching, and input every search term I can think of, but haven't been able to find an answer to this question: Does anyone know if the Zenfone 2 Laser ze551kl supports Work Profiles for Android for Work?
*EDIT* -- I figured out a way that people can test to see if their phone natively supports Work Profiles (required for Android for Work using Google's MDM): Test DPC, Google's profile test app for developers. If you (or anyone else reading this) is able, could you download Test DPC on your ze551kl and at least go through the initial steps in setup? If the phone doesn't support Work Profiles it will through up a message saying as much (tested the app on an s4, which got that error message) in the first few steps of the setup.
All more general searches I do only bring up results for the recent firmware update that added support to the ze551ml (not the ze551kl). When I narrow the search enough to exclude that model from the results, I only get results for lists of articles or queries that have separate, unrelated posts for ze551kl and Android for Work.
It's too bad all manufacture's don't just include support for the Work Profile (i.e., the AT&T S4 I currently use issued as a work phone still doesn't support it).
So -- does anyone know the answer to this question? I'd really appreciate it.
Its got the ability to have different user profiles, but I'm not sure if that's what you're referring to. Is it an app or would it be in the settings menu somewhere?

It's a bit different than user profiles, but similar.
http://arstechnica.com/information-...r-work-dual-persona-support-comes-to-android/
It essentially creates a containerized section on the phone for Google Apps for Work. You end up with "two" hangouts, gmail, contacts, etc (which is nice, because it removes the account from switching account options in apps -- like when you share to Hangouts and it makes you select an account everytime if you have more than one). Instead of the work accounts device policy enabling it to see all apps installed on phone, have permissions to remote wipe, the Work Profile makes it so that the work account device policy can only see information in the Work Profile, and only has permissions to remote wipe the work profile.
I currently use Android for Work on my Moto X Pure 2014, and carry a separate s4 issued by work. I'd like to just put both of those sims into one phone, but I need something decent, that supports data on both sims (data connection active on both at same time not required), that also supports Android for Work.
Gotcha, I don't really see any Android for work options anywhere in mine, is there anything you had to download from the Play Store on your Moto X to get it working?

Unfortunately it's only something you can verify if you start setting up a Google apps account that can use it. Otherwise it doesn't show up anywhere.
I really appreciate you digging around for it though.

Ahh gotcha. If I hear something, I'll let you know. Might be worth a shot to email ASUS about it.

Unfortunately, we have an answer. Maybe there's hope they'll add support with the Android M update?

We can only hope. Really appreciate you taking the time to test it!
Still trying to figure out if all devices on Marshmallow (whether launched with it, or updated to it) include support for Work Profile. Seems like that's the case, but having a hard time finding a definitive answer.

That would be awesome if 6.0 supports Android for work natively, at this point it probably should.

Advanced Calling fix (HD Calling, Video Calling, and Wi-Fi Calling)

This is intended for those of you having issues enabling your Advanced Calling features. Whether it is not turning on, or its saying that it is enabled but you still can't use the features I am going to give you the steps I took to get mine up and running successfully. I also posted something similar to this in the PaulPizz thread and have had most all ending in success.
For me not being able to activate the HD Calling and Video Calling funtions were/are issues with the APN settings. I spent countless hours on the phone with Verizon, searching the threads and could not find a for sure fix. Below are the steps I did to fix the issue...
- open whichever file browser you're using and navigate to system/csc/ and open the sales_code.dat file and what should be "VZW" change it to "TMB" and save and exit
- reboot into recovery and flash SLIM_APNS.zip then reboot
- go to Settings>More Networks>Mobile networks>Access Point Names>and on the top right hit the options button and select Reset to default
- this should generate a list with multiple APNs being available now
- select the apn LTE-Verizon Internet (make sure you choose the one has the mmsc filled out and Bearer set to LTE)
- change the sales_code.dat file back to "VZW" save and then roboot
Now upon successful reboot you should now be able to go into settings and enable HD Calling and Video Calling as well as WiFi Calling.
Here is where you can find SLIM_APNS.zip

Let me know if this fix works for you or not.

If you're feeling generous, you might share your fix with the Verizon S5 crowd. Looks like they are having the same issues.

Thanks for the heads up...just created a thread pointing back to this one on the S5 page.

I have 5 options for LTE-Verizon internet (VZWINTERNET). Any will work correct? I only ask because I seem to loss data, still shows connected, after a few hours. I just want to make sure I have the correct APN's picked to eliminate that as an issue.

I know one of them has an empty field for mmsc and another one may have a few more options on the bearer option as well... Just be sure to choose one with mmsc filled out and Bearer set to LTE...at least that's what's working for me and a few others. But experiment with all of them to see which one works for you!
I could not get this to work on the Nseven port Rom. Anyone else have any luck on that Rom?

This also worked on Jasmine Rom. Advanced Calling was working when I first installed Jasmine and then one day it just stopped working. This fix is great!

I was able to get it working on that rom... But what I think you might have to do is get it working on another rom first like PaulPizz (by following my steps)... And then go over to Nseven and see if it works for you.
I know that may be a pain but that's one way to get it working

Interesting...I was on PauliPizz ROM before trying Nseven. On PauliPizz, I had HD Calling working without doing any extra work. When I came to Nseven, I did a wipe and flashed Nseven. The first thing I checked was HD calling and it was grayed out. I then followed your steps and found the the apn, LTE - Verizon Internet, appeared in multiple instances, but was grayed out and could not select it.
I am thinking of going back and doing this again. What steps should I take when coming from PauliPizz? Wipe or dirty flash?

When they were grayed out you did change it to TMB right? That's odd you couldn't select them... Maybe try changing it to ATT instead of TMB. And then follow the steps provided

Yes, tried both ATT and TMB. Each time, apns were grayed out.

Take a look at /system/etc/apns-conf.xml. Do you happen to see the ones that are grayed out in that file anywhere.
Yes, I see a bunch of apns in the file that resemble the ones that are grayed out.

If you haven't already select the APN that reads EHRPD VZWINTERNET... And then try to enable the Advanced calling selections.

Tried it...didn't work. The option is still grayed out. Not sure what to make of it.

This fix worked for me! I haven't had working HD Calling for nearly a year now and I also spent a lot of time trying to figure it out. Thank you so much!
