Hello.
I have problem receiving mms. I have my APN for internet and mms set up according to my provider settings I got from them. I was able to send mms, so I guess my mms APN works. But I can not receive mms.
When my friend sent me mms, I got my phone vibrating. There was no sound although I have it set to sound. I get sound for sms. I went to messaging app, but there was no evidence of mms. We tried that again, I could even see something like "Unknown: MMS received" (or something along those lines) but the notification did not stay in notification bar and the message was again nowhere to be found in messaging app. I also tried ChompSMS and HandecentSMS. No change. While testing, we send maybe 10 mms, and one of them actually made it to my messaging inbox and I was able to view it. Others just vibrated couple of times (I guess network was trying to deliver them again when failed before).
I am on G1, T-Mobile Slovakia and CyanogenMod4
Anyone knows solution please?
Thanks.
p.s. I also tested making sure my 3g data is on and working.
Just for the future reference. It was HandcentSMS doing this. After uninstall, stock app works just fine.
Hi Guys,
Im using Go Sms and when i received a MMS, i click on the file to download, it says file currently cannot download. i dont no what the prob is. In the settings of Go Sms, it says go to the built it messaging app's setting and enable the MMS auto retrieve. I check the stock messaging app and there is no setting for that. In handcent, there is that option in the setting.
How do i fix this prob?
thanks
Added a number to my phone today but all texts I sent to her instantly failed. She could send to me and I would receive it but I couldn't send to her.
Was using Textra when this started. Tried to use the messaging app to see if it would work but it would let me send any messages with Textra set as the default messaging app.
I changed the default to Messaging and was able to text her. Went into Textra and it also wouldn't work unless I set it to be the default.
1. Can you not use other texting apps while defaulted to something else?
2. Any idea why I couldn't send to her? (don't know what phone she is on)
Hello,
I would like to know how I can disable the automatic conversion sms in mms from the stock application without root?
1. Unless you're messaging a group, SMS won't be converted to MMS.
2. The default Messages app also supports RCS on most networks (e.g. on my Vodafone HU model, it received and displayed RCS messages with ease), so that might also be happening in your case.
Any ideas how to disable this SMS to MMS?
Even longer message to only one person results in conversion to MMS. I want to disabe this whout root. Thank you for any tips.
My problem is SMS messages to one recipient always automatically to MMS. All the others go normally. I'd like to stop this one from converting as I usually don't have data on and don't wont to turn it on only to send one message. I'm using the S8 with the Samsung messaging app.
i have the same problem, when my text exceeds the 3 sms it automatically converts to mms.. I know someone with the samsung J5 and on this phone it doesn't converts..
I would of thought it would be possible on the S8, but i can't seem to find any settings for this.
Is there any way to stop the conversion to mms?
If I remember correctly, than Samsung devices with 6.0 or older allowed you to write 10 SMS, before it converts to MMS. With 7.0 and newer it allows only 3. It's very annoying for me, because when I type in my language, with specialized characters, one SMS is about 60 symbols. It's very, very frickin annoying.
There use to be an Xposed module for this, but it doesn't work on Samsung's with 7.0+.
Any fix for this?
yes a fix would be great even with root. because sms is free mms is not!
Chomp SMS is my go too texting app. I can get pics with the stock messaging app but get a message saying check APN setting with chomp. I've changed them and it's still not working.
Any suggestions??
