Signed up for T-Mobile 30$ whatever plan today, and texting and data works fine, but if someone sends me a picture I can't see it, and if i try to send one it also doesn't send. I'm not sure if this is a problem with the software, user error, or T-Mobile. If it's in the wrong thread, feel free to move it. Any help is appreciated :good:
I'm also using LiquidSmooth ROM.
MMS doesn't work for me either.
I have T-mobile post-paid and MMS is working on Liquidsmooth. Does prepaid have a different APN?

It can take anywhere from 24-48 hours after you set up your plan for everything to work. So be patient and also check your apn settings. It's kinda tricky for the Nexus

MMS not working is almost always going to be an APN issue. Most carriers have different APN's for prepaid vs. Monthly contracts, so just call your carrier and ask for the APN's for your plan. There will probably be two, one for web and one for mms. Then Go to settings, mobile networks ( may have to hit more under wireless & networks heading), access point names, and enter the correct info. A lot of times there will just be an extra APN listed that you can delete depending on your contact type. Hope this helps

I am currently using Net10 with an AT&T sim.
I can make calls, browse the web, and send/receive regular texts, but I cannot send or receive MMS messages.
When I try to send an MMS it gets stuck "sending".
I am using the stock messaging app.
I am on android 4.2.2 stock with paranoid android kernel.
Here are the APN settings I am using:
Name: net10
APN: tfdata
MMSC: http://mms-tf.net
MMS Proxy: mms3.tracfone.com
MMS Port: 80
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Your APN settings appear to be correct according to Net10. Contact your customer support. Please note that MMS uses mobile data and text messaging.

Yes, those are the same settings I used. MMS does not work.
The Nexus 4 is capable of MMS because it worked just fine on t-mobile.
Unfortunately T-mobiles network is weak in my area, which is why I switched carriers.

I'm just telling you that you'll probably have more luck contacting customer support and finding a correct answer (depending on customer service quality) than you will asking the populace of a message board that can't see the server side logs of messaging and data transactions. As long as your SMS and mobile data are working properly and you have the correct APN settings, there isn't a whole lot more than can be done on your side to look for problems aside from trying your SIM card in a known working phone.

Unfortunately Net10's support has been horrible.
I just thought that it was possible that someone on this forum had experienced the same issue and found a client side fix. (different apn settings etc..)
I'll try their support again. Thanks.
I went from net 10 to solavei. Net 10 sucks when it comes ton customer service. It took me 3 days to find the data APN online. MMS never worked

I have the AT&T sim. Unfortunately those settings do not work for me. I do not get any data when I use "wap.tracfone" as the apn.
When I use your settings, but I change the apn to "tfdata" I can send mms but I cannot receive mms. I get the message, but when I try to download the picture it says it can't receive it.

No, just stock messaging app.
Then just change WAP.tracfone to att.mvno
I have a att sim and that works fine so strange.

Tried that as well. Still no data. I just don't get it...
I even tried a new sim. And I have the same problem.
Is there no one on here that has net10 on a Nexus 4 working perfectly?
You are not alone. Can't download MMS either. Its not our phones. I'm on a pan tech flex. Worked perfect today, activated. New sim with a new number, now I can't download mms. I get the download message, but fails to download. Pop my other net10 sim in, works. Put mine back in, nothing. Everything else works, even sending MMS. But fails to download. CS was no support. They blamed it on my phone even though I told them my other net10 sim works with it. Tomorrow will be another battle. Its something on their end. Not ours. Not MMSC or MMS proxy combination works for me.

All I can think of is I know they have been creating all these new APNs. A week ago I had one set with the att.mvno but those all stopped working. Then I was given the "new! Wap.tracfone ones. Then activated this new sim and now I have the tfdata set. Maybe this new MMSC and MMS proxy isn't quite set up properly in their system. Or something with new account provisioning isn't right. I tried all the mmsc and mms proxies known to net10. Some worked and some didn't. But none would actually download mms. Would just deliver the download message. Its weird how some peoples accounts work with only certain APNS while others with exactly same accounts won't. The way their system works is quite interesting.

Thank you for the information.
This is truly frustrating. I wonder if switching to Straight talk would help.
Not sure it would help. My other Net10 sim works just fine. I assume you just activated your sim card recently? Apparently these new APNS are very new. As last week I was given different "new" APNS. Maybe their is a glitch in their system with them. Normally if MMS isn't going to work, its just not going to work period. But to send but not receive is baffling. If they can't fix it tomorrow, I will demand a transfer of my number to a fresh new account.

Yes, I just activated my sim two days ago.
I tried transferring my account to a different net10 sim I have. But I still can't download mms messages.
Both sims came in the same starter pack.
I wonder what could be different with your old net10 sim that would allow you to download mms, but not with your new one.
If you are using the same apn settings, it must be an account setting.
Their support is absolutely abysmal...
Please keep me updated if you are able to find a solution.
Thanks!
Well. My theory is, since some accounts only take to certain APN settings that, your account gets programmed with them. Which is why att.mvno and wap.tracfone don't work with this new sim, while it does with my other which has been activated for months. I think when a sim is activated, its programmed to only work with the current APN settings. Changing them on the phone won't work. Right now my old sim won't work with anything but wap.tracfone but my new one won't work with anything but tfdata. Its odd. So maybe our new sims Re programmed to work with the tfdata settings which are having issues on their server side of things being so new.

That makes sense! I will try calling their support today to see if I can have them change my account to allow the other APN's.
So after talking with support she was unable to resolve the issue.
She did say she escalated my account so that their technicians will look into the mms issue further.
She said she was not able to change the apn because that is something that is done on activation.
All the new sims are automatically activated with the tfdata apn.
After further discussion she decided to send me a new sim card so that I can transfer my service to it.
She told me to call back when I get the new sim.
The interesting part is that she said that when I call back, I can request that they activate the new sim with an old apn. (wap.tracfone or att.mvno) to see if it resolves the issue.
It will take 3-5 business days to get the new sim. I will report back with any further info.
Does anyone have a working apn setting that allows mms to be received without a data connection on Rogers?
I don't need to be able to send mms, only receiving them.
Mms requires data I believe

Yeah I always found that odd. I know dumb phones without data that could do it but for some reason Android devices required a data connection for MMS.
Some people have managed to receive mms without a data plan on other carriers, im just wondering what the apn settings would be for Rogers.
Hi guys
I'm having a problem with my APN settings,
I'm losing my network connection because of my APN settings,
Phone doesn't remember those settings even when I set them manually. I'm on 3uk network,
Is there any chance to set APN values somewhere in the build.prop list?

Anyone else have issues sending and receiving mms messages? I'm using a verizon s5 on t-mobile, my mms worked on ATT but not on t-mobile thanks alot

YES!
I JUST fixed it this week.
My MMSC setting got reset. Couldn't send or receive MMS. I installed Textra, because it's settings have a place to change the MMSC.
The APN settings in the verizon build are locked, so you cant change globally (unless you find a way to unlock them).
Also heard that getting a new SIM card might fix it, as the phone loads the APNs from there.
