Never really encountered this problem but mms files won't send. I'm stock rooted and all the correct apn settings are in for Internet and mms. No clue what's wrong. These settings worked on my Samsung Nexus so before!

1) Turn off wifi
2) Send message
3) Wait a bit
4) Turn wifi back on
That solved my problem last night and it's been working fine since (I'm on ST btw). I've heard there's some kind of bug with mms and wifi. I haven't researched the problem too deep so take that with a grain of salt. Hope that helps!

I had a problem for a while with T-Mobile where I could receive MMS but they wouldn't send.
To fix this I went into Settings -> Select "More" under Wireless & Networks --> Mobile Networks --> Access Point Names --> Click on the 3 dots and "Reset to Default". Reset phone and problem solved.
Nothing looked different before and after, other than for a week I couldn't send MMS and after restarting I suddenly could.
was having the same issue with my phone through T-Mobile, and I tried what Acuity recommended. So far, all my mms messages have gone through.
Thanks Acuity!

Hi All.
Have my MXP on Verizon. Love it. However, I'm currently having some issues - I can't get MMS when I'm on wifi - I get notifications for the messages, and then get "failed to retrieve message" and then it just never shows up.
I'm using the stock messenger app.
I know textra has an option to "fix" T-Mobile (where this happens apparently), but I don't really want to use that because it uses a different text message database than the standard one, so I can't launch tasker events based on SMS/MMS when I use it.
I have unlocked the "secret" menu and enabled HD calling, and I switched my "preferred network type" to LTE/CDMA (since I'm on Verizon) in an effort to allow voice and data concurrently. It seems to be working. Not sure if this causes an error when I'm on wifi.
I also have Adblock Plus. Per this thread I just changed my APN to set MMS port to 8080; I'll see if that affects anything when I get home.
However, as I have not tested this, I am wondering if anyone else has this problem? As I type this, I'm now thinking that I may only see this when sending messages to/from iPhones ... I'll do more testing tonight and update, but I'm hoping someone sees this and is like, "Oh, I know exactly what it is ...."
EDIT:
So this didn't fix anything. I have to turn wifi off to get mms. REALLY ANNOYING. Anyone at all see this and have any solutions? Anything?
Thanks.
never had problems since day 1 if I was on wifi or not to send MMS. Maybe try factory reset.
To my knowledge, you can't get regular MMS over WiFi. You have to have your phone data on too. I have found no solution to automatically turn phone data on when a text comes in. Every solution I found doesn't work for Lollipop.
i just got the same thing but after i updated to 6.0 so figured it was because of the update
So I have cellular data on and wifi on. I don't know if there's a setting I'm missing that turns data off automatically when connect to wifi ... anyone know anything about this?
Either way, if I'm on wifi, I get no MMS whether using default messaging app or hangouts.
There is a know issue with any app that accesses the MMS database on 6.0 ....ie Pushbullet.
Let me see if I can find a link
Found it...

I am on T Mobile and I have had issues receiving MMS messengers while on WIFI. Does anyone have a fix for this? I read previously that there was an APN setting to change but I am not sure. Thanks in advance! Also, this is using Android Messages (Stock APP).
Haven't changed anything and it's working on my end..also on T-Mobile...

I had the same issue and I am on TMobile also. If WiFi was on, I could not send nor receive MMS. I fixed it with this: https://support.t-mobile.com/thread/61843
---------- Post added at 09:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:36 PM ----------
Once I made the changes I was able to send MMS and receive them
I'm also on T-Mobile and was not receiving mms when on Wi-Fi, but receiving them fine. The problem was fixed when I turned off Wi-Fi calling. Hope that fixes your issue also.
I agree the problem is fixed by turning off WiFi calling, but WiFi calling is something I want to keep on

Okay so I noticed wifi calling wasn't on for me when it was working. I went and checked my APN settings and they were wrong. I corrected them using the settings in the link a few posts up and now it works with wifi calling on for me

I am glad it worked for you.
I also used the above fix, it seems to be working as well. Thanks
I have bookmarked that TMO page. Just a FYI, my pixel unlocked and unbranded does not have this problem
I am going to run by t-mobile today, I'm trying to gauge my signal with my wife iPhone today to see if it's the same.

As with the MMS on Wifi .. the APN that the Essential pulls is not complete .. NONE of the 4 it pulls. I would go in and edit yours. The MMS while on wifi regardless of wifi calling on or off .. should be fixed with the proper APN. Remember that you should reboot after changing the APN. My wife's was having an issue with MMS and weird signal issues. I fixed her up with a proper APN. It's a pitfall of a non-carrier phone. My U11 suffered the same issues. Anyway. Give a proper APN a shot.
I did this but am still having reception issues as well as MMS issues
To clarify if you make this chnage to get it to work, you need "Cellular" checked under Wifi Calling. If you have WiFi calls as preferred it still does not work. These changes and that setting allow the phone to jump back and forth when needed, correct?

I don't think MMS works over Wifi, though.

Sure it does. I just sent a gif from Gboard and a photo from my gallery to the wife and she's got an Essential on TMO. It works fine.
Again, a proper APN will make all this work properly.
What have those of you on Verizon been doing?
Hello - I saw this post while looking for an MMS solution for my PH-1 on AT&T. I have had Verizon, Sprint, Google Fi, and AT&T on this phone, and the only one that I could send/receive SMS/MMS was on Verizon while on my work network's WiFi. I work in a school building behind three layers of cinder block walls, and I have to have a way for this to work. I could go back to VZW, but I'm trying to avoid their high and not-unlimited Unlimited plans' rates. Can you direct me to the correct APN settings for AT&T? Thanks!
Is anyone having the same problem ? It seem it was working fine for few weeks but now it is causing me a major issue. Only happens when I'm at home on wifi. As soon as I switch to mobile everything works . Already tried messing with the apn settings seem not to have any effects on the problem
I'm also having this issue. RCS working fine on wifi here as well as SMS, but only MMS fails to send.
No issue here using Google Messages

Yeah. It has to be network problems. I mean it worked perfect for 2 weeks. I didn't change a thing .
Had the same issue, create a new apn exactly the same as default one just enable ipv4 & ipv6. Boom works
Example:
Problem resolved itself.
I just realized my photo Msg didn't send either. Is there a real soltuob

wow, thanks for this. i think it actually worked.
can't believe IPv6 is still a thing. i know it has advantages, but there are good reasons it hasn't caught on. this is a shining example. only time i ever encounter v6 is when it causes issues like this.
What about keeping mobile data always on turned on??
I ordered my OP8P directly from OnePlus, but my MMS doesn't seem to be working. Anyone else had the issue?
I actually got a message that the settings were not correct, and that the correct ones were being sent to my phone (had never seen that before). I looked at the APN info, and it seems to be correct... based on memory.
I'm on T-MOBILE also and received the same message. The phone had an update so I installed and rebooted the phone. All call,text, MMS, data worked like it's supposed to. Try rebooting?
I have issues when connected to WiFi, message comes in but doesn't download

I've tried rebooting. Things are a lot better, but I still have some issues with calling out (can't remember the message... will try and get a screenshot next time). If I immediately try again, the call will go out.
I'm also not seeing any wifi calling. The feature is enabled, but it doesn't seem to be working... even on the "wifi calling preferred" setting.
Just wanted to post an update.... still having issues. MMS pretty much never works with wifi on. For this reason, my wifi is off pretty much all day. It never fails that as soon as I turn it on, a picture or group message comes in.
Also, this does not affect SMS or RCS messages, which appear to come in over data somehow.... just MMS.
Need a fix bad.
I'm having the same issues with T-Mobile. I'm leaving wifi off in the meantime. Hope there is a fix soon.
That was supposedly fixed with the last update. What software version are you on?

Hi, not sure if it would make a difference but I'm using Google messages with the chat features enabled. I never noticed anything unusual though but I live in Louisiana. Sorry to hear that. I know there is an option for mobile and wifi (dual-channel network optimization) that I haven't been using. Anyway I hope this clears up for y'all.
I'm on 10.5.6. I just went to t mobile and got a new sim card.. It didn't resolve the issue.
Use Textra app, go into settings for Textra and it has option for TMobile WiFi, works great

You really, REALLY had my hopes up. It actually makes sense, but it doesn't work. I tried with both on and off... no luck. MMS messages (both inbound and outbound) are stuck until I turn off wifi.

I used to use the Textra app, but really prefer Google Messages for it's web app. I am on the PC all day, so it's aggravating to have to pick up the phone all the time. I've tried MS Your Phone, but it's not as easy to use, or as reliable.
I created a thread with a similar (but opposite) issue to what you're experiencing. A friend of mine with an international 8 Pro on TMO is having the exact issue you are.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-8-pro/help/receive-mms-wifi-calling-tmobile-t4088673
Didn't get any help from that but you can try the APN trick for a temporary fix until it's patched for real. I also created a thread on Reddit for this and I think I found the solution. I use Textra, but that alone didn't help. Someone on Reddit told me to disable the stock messaging app, as well as revoke it's permissions to everything. Since doing that I'm no longer having issues. It's only been about a day so we'll see how it goes from here.
Hope I could help!

Duplicating the APN worked (of course, I did the whole thing then swiped back, thinking it would save, grr). I'm guessing it won't last long. It's just as easy to disable wifi for it to send... so weird that you're having the opposite problem.
**EDIT**
Nevermind... it didn't work. I was able to send out with wifi on (which I couldn't do before), but my wife's test message wouldn't download until I disabled wifi.
I had frozen the stock messaging app on day one, with tibu. I thawed it, revoked the permissions, and disabled it via settings this time. No luck "Not sent. Tap to try again".
Anyone find a fix for it yet? I thought 10.5.8 would help but I still can't receive or send MMS on WiFi.

Granted, I haven't done any extended testing yet, but I can send/receive MMS now with wifi connected. I upgraded about 4 hours ago, and this is probably the longest I've ever had wifi on.
Now that you've posted this, I'm skeptical it will last, though.
**EDIT**
Yep. MMS is still broken when on wifi. Geez....

The latest update seems to have fixed it for me. I was also having issues receiving calls. Callers would get a busy signal. The update fixed that as well. Maybe try taking your SIM out, reboot, then put it back in and reboot.
That didn't work. I'm finally getting notifications from my sports app after the 10.5.8 update. Just have to fix the wifi now.
Wifi still dies on me, but not with the ! on the icon. Just no traffic. I had to toggle it. But nowhere near as much as it used to. The MMS issue is the only reason I don't leave wifi on. I was really hoping it was fixed.
Same issue here even with most recent updates. MMS will work 1/10 times over wifi (sending & receiving) but not the other 9 times.
Since the update I've also noticed wifi issues - they may have been there before but didn't notice. Wifi seems to hang, I sometimes see a "!" next to the wifi symbol. In many cases I turn WiFi off and the connectivity issue in whichever app is resolved.
So at this point on TMobile there is no reason to keep wifi on, which is unfortunate because with their "5G" I actually get half the speeds of LTE. ?

Pretty much everything you said. I'm really upset and disappointed. I'm actually considering returning the phone and going back to the OP7P. Not even sure what the return policy with them is...
