I apologize if this has been answered elsewhere as I have tried to look.
I recently received my nexus 6p and prior to that i had a Note 4. I needed a nano sim card so I went to verizon and they gave me a nano sim and activated it in my nexus 6p (surprisingly for free). Ever since I made the switch i have received horrible MMS picture quality. Images are coming in anywhere from 16kb-52kb and are very blurry. I contacted Google who wasn't sure how or what the issue was. Then i contacted verizon who i figured were the real culprits (maybe confused because they don't support 6p and images coming in at lowest size possible?). My brother has the 5x and was able to directly swap his sim card from his galaxy s6 and does not have this issue at all. I have no idea where to turn
tl;dr - since switching to nexus 6p on verizon, i am receiving horrible quality picture messages
is anyone else even having this problem? and did you switch from a micro to nano usb that was activated by verizon?

Hi, did you check your APN settings? I don't have Verizon (T-Mobile) so I'm not sure what it needs to be set to but I'm sure you can Google the settings. If all fails, you can try to just reset the APN to see if that fixes your issue. Good luck.

I got this email from textra as a solution, havene't bee nable to try it yet
If MMS is not working then follow these instructions to locate the issue:
a) Firstly check in Textra > Settings > MMS Settings if you have a 'Manually Configure APN' setting, ensure it's NOT ticked. This means Textra was able to ascertain your APN settings correctly from your existing device settings, so 99% likely these are correct.
b) If you don't have this (Manually Configure APN) setting, locate the details as below and enter them into Textra.
* contact your carrier and request the correct MMS APN settings for your device; or
* check in Settings App > (More...) > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names (MMS)
c) Some carriers only support a 'Send Size Limit' of 300KB (Textra > Settings > MMS Settings). So first set the size to 300KB to see if that helps when sending.
Once you have checked these details, please send yourself a test MMS.
If still an issue, please send us a screenshot of the Textra > Settings > MMS Settings page along with what happened when you sent yourself a test MMS as instructed above.
P.S One other thing, if you can send MMS perfectly but keep getting the 'Check APN...' notification when receiving an MMS then it's certainly another SMS app (even if not the default one!) interfering, uninstall it, clear the notification and test by sending yourself an MMS. Check in the stock app to ensure MMS > Auto-Retrieve is OFF
PPS Any ad blocking app or VPN app can interfere with MMS, for example Adaway, AdBlock Plus, NoRoot Firewall.
Thanks heaps.
We will sort it for you!

This thread has been a lifesaver for me! First of all my issue is slightly different but worth posting. Since root I have been unable to send MMS, SMS have been fine. They get stuck on sending and it was locking up my entire messaging app. This was the same using default and hangouts. I verified APN settings, set chrome to default browser app.... nothing worked.
The posted email about the ad blocker messing up messaging apps was what fixed this for me. I stopped Adblock Plus from running automatically on boot and my MMS instantly started working again. If you have any sort of ad blocking apps try disabling them to see if it helps.
So happy this fixed for me I was thinking I was going to have to do a clean flash.
I was having the same problem. I am running AdAway and it that is not blocking MMS. Adblock plus was blocking the same port MMS is using. I would think they will fix it any day so just keep checking for updates.
Having this same issue and it's awful. Anyone find a solution because above didn't work. Pictures from iPhone/Android looks like ****.
I have this problem but only on Textra. When textra is the default text app, the mms pics I receive are of much lower quality. I had used textra on my previous note 3 and it was fine. Ever since the switch to the 6p, the quality has gotten low. When I use google's messenger as the default app, the mms pics come in normally. Next, I go open textra, I see the normal looking mms that was received but Strangely, a duplicate is also present. And that duplicate picture has lower resolution. I sent Textra the screenshots of my problem, unfortunately I didn't get a solution. They said they would forward the issue to the dev team and they'd work on it.
There's been several updates on Textra since, but none have fixed the issue for me =( I love Textra, but right now I'm back to using google messenger cuz of this issue.
I have this issue as well. It's so annoying that I can't read anything that comes to me with text that isn't huge. I hope someone finds a solution. I am using Textra, maybe that's the culprit?

OK guys I have the n4 on T-Mobile and I can not receive MMS from iphones only. I can get SMS from iPhone. I can get MMS from any other phone. I've tried iPhones from 3 carriers and I can't receive MMS from any of them. I have changed my APN settings several times to match others configurations but nothing has worked. I have created a new apn etc...I have tried go SMS,hand cent, and chomp.I know I cannot be alone on this matter ,I just don't think many people have realized it yet. Any help is much appreciated.

I have AT&T and my partner has an iPhone 4S and I can get MMS from her. So it is possible, to get it to work. Are you using Google Voice? if so this maybe the issue. In Google Voice set it so text messages are received via the messaging app. Or disable Google Voice entirely and see if that fixes it.
What plan on you on with tmobile? Pre-paid or monthly? And what APN settings have you tried? Check this out:
http://johnlieske.com/2012/11/21/some-t-mobile-nexus-4-tweaks/
I uninstalled Google voice completely and still a no go. I'm on the prepaid unlimited plan with 5gb of data (70$)..I've tried those settings you referred me to but for some reason little baby phone doesn't play nicely with the n4.
I am also on T-Mobile and I cannot receive MMS from iPhone users. Any other phone works just fine.

I'm pretty sure I had the same issue, and I'm also on T mobile, what I had to do was turn auto retrieve MMS off, in the stock messaging apps settings, as well as make sure APN was set to those shown in attached picture

Success, That did it for me...I think unchecking the auto retrieve maybe what's behind it . I've tried the other settings before without unchecking the auto retrieve and it didn't work . But nevertheless thanks a lot
This one has me scratching my head looking for answers. I noticed this problem a while ago where my friends MMS sent from iPhones were not appearing on my Messages, I have the option for "fetch MMS automatically" and all I get is the little cloud but its blank, it only shows the time it was received, I've also tried disabling the fetch MMS automatically and even when downloading them it shows me the blank cloud. The doozy comes when I tried using Hangouts just to see what it was and to my surprise I could see all my SMS and MMS conversations from my contacts and all the pictures from the iPhone contacts were shown via Hangouts but they do not show on the stock Messages app.
Things I've tried:
1) Googling for answers only resulted in fanboyism comments and speculations that led to more fanboyism.
2) At first I tried contacting my carrier and they made me reset the APN settings to default, which I did and it was after that that I realized that it was only the iPhone MMS messages that weren't being received.
3) Tried disabling the Hangouts services via the Apps option on the settings menu. Restarted phone and still wouldn't work.
4) Been restarting my phone with each setting I change to see if it helps but no.
5) Been bugging my friends to send me MMS from their iPhones and one did get through but nothing more after that.
6) Made sure their iPhones had the setting of "Send MMS when iChat isn't available" enabled.
7) Made sure my old iPhone account was signed out of my old iPhone 4 so I wasn't receiving anymore iMessages.
I'm speculating that I either need to call my carrier again which is Claro PR and explain the situation to see if it helps, or maybe go to a store. Also, I've been thinking about Rooting my phone so I can uninstall some of the bloat, which included Hangouts but don't want to go down that path yet and I don't know if it would really help anything since I already tried disabling the service via the Apps options.
Please help me figure this out, I love this phone but this thing is bugging the hell out of me.
I have had problems with mms on hangouts and the stock app on Sprint doesn't support group mms. I have been using Go sms pro and everything works fine, including iPhone mms messages.

Hmm... interesting a replacement messaging app, I would definitely keep this in mind so thanks a lot for the suggestion. I rather use the stock apps while I'm getting used to the phone since this is my first Android device but will definitely use this if resetting to factory defaults doesn't help my problem.
*Edit*
Any other suggestions for my problem are welcomed.
LG didn't enable MMS group messaging on stock messages. My HTC One and S4 had the option in settings to enable it...LG left it out. If you haven't heard, TEXTRA is one of the best, fastest, light weight messaging apps that can handle iPhone group messages without the bloat on go sms and handcent. Look it up on the playstore...ratings are great and all my Android friends use it now. I've yet ran into any issues with group texting.

Hi and thanks for the reply, I've looked up Textra and seems like a nice alternative and has a very clean interface, I'm currently using Hangouts from Google without a problem but would have preferred the stock message app. It's weird because I went to my carrier and they did some test and everything was fine, turns out its only MMS sent from iPhones that won't show through the Message app from G2. Maybe I should try emailing them to see if I can get some answers?
Yea only the Verizon variant supports group messages. I posted a thread about this in the Themes and Apps forum. Could be the cause.
All my friends group text me all the time and send MMS using the Verizon version Messaging app and hangouts. The stock messaging app world best though.

Couple of things. 1 check to see if you connected to LTE, You cannot send MMS over wifi on Verizon. They took that feature out, dont know why. Second, Check to see if there any old MMS that are stuck, its good idea to delete all old MMS that are pending to be sent and retry.
Someone else posted something similar the other night, they had one of those old MMS stuck in resizing. He deleted that message and his MMS started working again.
I have a similar problem since I updated to Verizon Message version 6.06. I could not go back to the last version, and I was unable to find the prior version APK file; however, Amazon had a very old version of Verizon Message, so I loaded that and it fixed the issue. I was also able to use the stock message app to get and send MMS, but with Verizon's app I could not.

I had trouble with my 6p sending MMS. After googling it, I found people with the same issue and quite a few had pushbullet installed and said that once they uninstalled it, it worked fine. Once I uninstalled it, MMS started working again.

This happened to me the other day. I tried turning data on/off, airport mode on/off, restarting the device, clearing data&cache from the Messages application as well as reverting Messages to factory and reinstalling the updates.
Either by chance or by one/all of those things, it seemed to clear up.
This is not just Verizon, it's happening to T-Mobile also but I don't think it's a carrier issue. My nexus 5 does the same thing as my 6p. Rebooting the phones and it starts working again. This affects group messaging also. When I receive a group text it days unable to download. Restart they phone and it comes through. Hopefully this is a marshmallow issue that will hey fixed ota.
It's the app. Mostly happens to me when WiFi is connected with "WiFi calling" enabled. I disable WiFi and reboot the phone and then everything works again. It happens to me once in every month, if that. Don't bother me much.
Hopefully someone can provide me a solution to this headache of a problem. I was on straight talk (at&t) and I stopped receiving MMS messages. I tried every APN configuration I could find and none worked. I installed a different rom and they worked for a while and stopped. I decided to try out project fi so I didn't try a new sim. I also restored to stock for a fresh start. My Fi service started today and I'm still not able to receive MMS messages. Sending them works fine as far as I can tell. I called Google and none of their solutions worked and they told me the port can take time to fully go through. While I was waiting for the port to complete I used my straight talk sim on my one plus 2 and did receive a picture during that time. Is it possible that the problem is with the phone itself? Does anyone have any other solutions I can try? Dialing some set of symbols and numbers to get into additional phone settings or anything like that? This is driving me crazy! Thank you for any advice that you can provide me!

I had a similar problem on AT&T. I fixed it by deleting any unneeded APNs and using the stock "Messenger" app. I use to use SMS Go Pro but it failed to send any MMS texts. It worked fine on my Nexus 5. Also using Google Hangouts didn't work.

Have you tried Textra as your messaging app? They have mms settings where the wifi turns off temporarily when sending or receiving a message. I had a little trouble with mms, and then I set my apn to Ipv4/ Ipv6 and implemented the wifi fix in Textra. There are also other settings for Project Fi in the advanced settings.

I hate to resurrect a dead thread, but I'm having this issue too. Removing ADM as a Device Admin, deleting extra APN's, adding chrome as the default browser, and only using Messenger did not help. Then I noticed that when my phone first turned on, I would send and receive any MMS messages that were trying to download or send at the time of the reboot. So I wondered if another app was messing with the MMS function. So I downloaded aSpotCat to see what had permissions to SMS functions, and went into Settings -> Apps and disabled the SMS permission from each app other than stock Google. Rebooted. Testing now. I'm going to try pulling some logcats this weekend when I find the time.
--edit--
for what it's worth, with all but the stock apps having the SMS permission blocked, after a reboot, about 15 minutes in I am able to send / receive MMS messages now. I lost the ability after about 2 minutes after boot prior to this. I'll keep testing, and re-enable the permissions later to see if I can replicate the problem and pull a logcat.

Google App

Hangouts

ROM Toolbox Pro

Tasker

I also had TrueCaller and AT&T Visual Voicemail Viewer, but I just uninstalled those

Make sure your APN is right. Usually the default APN the phone generates is good but might not be the same as what ATT recommends

Is the person that's sending a MMS sending from a Samsung phone? I heard it's because of the advance messaging setting in the SMS app that Samsung uses. They'll have to turn it off apparently. I haven't tested it but I started researching this issue today because I'm not getting all of my texts in a group chat. I've noticed 2 numbers has a Samsung device

Interesting. I think they were Samsung's. Although I sent one yesterday and it went through as expected.
It seems inconsistent
Exact same issue started happening to me after the December update. I"m on AT&T as well. APN is correct, tried deleting unused APN's still no good. I can't even send a photo/mms to myself unless I toggle Airplane mode or reboot the phone.
I can confirm turning off advanced messaging in a Samsung messaging app works. My girlfriend has a Samsung s7 active, I turned that **** off because we're in a group text and I never got her message. It always shows a download failed. Today, I did a group text again and now I receive her messages. Damn you Samsung ... Or is it Google , either way that's the only solution I can think of.
