Problem with SM-935U firmware and texting--HELP - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers

Here's my problem. I have installed the latest Nougat sm-935u on my 935v and love it's buttery smooth operation but I have a problem with my message apk. It doesn't matter which apk I install or use, they all act the same.
I am using a Straight Talk Sim running on the Verizon network. When I send a text or MMS message the message will actually send and the recipient will receive it, but on my end the message will time out and will say failed to send even though it went through. I never know if it really sent unless I call and ask if it came through and they always tell me yes.
When I go to Mobile Networks, Access Point Names, I have one listed as "Tracfone-Verizon". When I open it and choose edit access point, I can only change one line which is the APN name, "tracfone.vzwentp" all other choices are greyed out.
Is there a way to correct this?

I am having the same problem but I am on Total Wireless.
The problem fixed itself after I updated to the latest U firmware BHQ3 using Samsung Switch.

MMS Won't Delete And Keeps Resending To Phone

I was trying to get MMS to work on T-Mobile in the US and sent some messages via email to my phone. I get the message headers but can't get the rest of the message. I don't really care about this since I don't really use MMS but whenever I delete the messages, they get sent back to the phone within a few hours. T-Mobile is not at all surprisingly useless here and of no help.
Can anyone advise as to how to permanently delete these messages or better still get rid of the otherwise useless MMS app (preferably without a hard reset and reloading a modified ROM image?)
db
So you got it to actually send?? Can you tell me what the settings are?
I also have a problem with received MMS being re-sent. However, it appears that after a few days they get removed from the server. I was getting dozens of re-sends a day, and now very few, so it seems to be going away.
I couldn't get it to send from the phone. I sent it from my PC to my T-Mo 'email' address >> ##########@tmomail.com. Instead of the SMS inbox handling it, the MMS application picks it up (the headers only). I don't know how anyone has MMS running in the States with the pre-installed app. No matter what I do, it never works.
Hopefully, the server will just give up on them eventually as you seem to have discovered.
A Mini T-Mo Rant: T-Mo US is just terrible when it comes to trying to help with this stuff. I called them asking them to delete the messages for me and they replied that it is a hardware problem on my end!! I wasn't asking them to solve the problem of not being able to receive it. Clearly, T-Mo's server keeps trying to send it and all they had to do was delete it. I don't think it takes a technical genius to figure this out, let alone their 2nd tier support!
db
Yeah, I had a similar useless conversation. I asked for the server settings, and all they'd say is, "We can't support that device because we don't know what the software looks like." After a half dozen times explaining that I could manage the config if they would simply tell me THEIR server settings, I gave up.
It does amaze me how far behind the US is in terms of phone tech. We lag just about everywhere in virtually every respect of telephony.
db
Yup. Used to be I could call the T-Mobile support center in the UK and get good help. Ironically, that was before VoiceStream joined T-Mobile. Now they tell me I have to call US support.

Mogul Sprint Rom to Cricket Service Sms error

I haven't seen this exact problem so i decided to create a new post. I have a mogul that was used on sprint's network and recently decided to switch to cricket. I already had the newest sprint rom (v 3.56.651.0) and I did all of the programming myself. So far, Sending and receiving calls works just fine, the internet works the way it's supposed to, I even got mms messages to send and receive. I have also changed the msl and have gotten OTA programming to work properly. However my problem lies in the fact that I cannot send sms (text) messages in any way shape or form, though I can receive them just fine. Every attempt returns a SMS Error, Cause Code 97. Here’s the latest attempt's entry in the AtDbgLog
...

I can provide just about any more information needed and any help with this situation would be greatly appreciated
What PRL do you have Loaded?
As you know the PRL is what allows voice and text.
prl
I had the correct prl loaded, i'd even tried several namely 01040, 01050, and whatever prl was automatically downloaded through *228, but I've since determined that the problem was with their servers as opposed to my phone. I didn't update the post because I couldn't remember where i'd posted it...

HELP! - MMS on ATT

Through a series of weird events I have ended up with a gsm unlocked imagio and no VZW service any longer. No sweat I still have an auxilary line with att. I have gone through all the data settings. Destroyed the connection guardian and unblocked the server edit for arcsoft. Everything works great. Data, SMS, Sending MMS. The only issue I am running into is recieving MMS. I get the messages most of the time but they all say "Message not found". No picture, no text other than the error. MMS settings in arcsoft have been checked over and over. All the searching on the web has yielded no results. Any pro willing to help with the settings/registry tweaks required to get this up and running?
I am having this same problem I have tried about everything I could think of to get it working.
x3 on this issue. Regular text message I get no problem but MMS with pic or anything else I get "Message not Found" I can send without any issues
MMS on ATT
Same here. Very frustrating.
I am right here with you guys...same issue and all the same registry file changes made. But still yeilding the same results "Message Not Found". The one conclusion that I can assertain is that it is not opening up into the message program. The file data recieves on mine it is almost like it cant find the appropriate program to open or the file extension when recieved on the phone and points to a Verizon Specific app???
Ok since posting my last message on not being able to receive pics via mms, I have done some work on the phone and ROM-Graded to the Sense Rom and everything seems to be working fine with pic message retrieval using HTC messaging...If I go back to the Arcsoft threaded messaging mode it will not still retrieve the pics even after the ROM-Grade. So a work around if your up for it updating the ROM has helped and it also got rid of ALL the Verizon bloatware and crap too...Bonus! I have been running this way for several weeks now and it seems to really be the solution.

[Q] Played with network options... No texts anymore

Hi,
I have a Samsung Vibrant. As I'm in Australia, I was playing around trying to connect to another frequency via *#*#4636#*#* > Phone information. I set it to AUS and backed out (pretty sure that's all I did). Then I couldn't send any texts .... at all. Failed.
I switched back to Automatic frequency - no difference....
I have re-falshed the OS with Odin, both with the most recent 2.1 release and also with one that is supplied on the xda post "OFFICIAL T-Mo Vibrant JFD ODIN/Nandroid Backup Images" (I'm not allowed to post links) (I've still got this one installed right now). Both made absolutely no difference.
I deleted all user data... no difference.
Now I have a stock phone entirely, that will not send any text messages.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Andrew
I've noticed that SMSC is blank - I tried to set it to the right number: +61411990001, but it just returns 'update error'. So I tried 0411990001. It didn't 'do' anything, but didn't return an error. It disappeared when I backed out and came back in. it didn't fix the problem.
Is there a trick to updating the SMSC that I've missed? It seems likely to be the error??
there is also no information in 'Your Phone number', and I recall that the default way to access voicemail never worked because of 'no voicemail number on the sim card'...... does this all add up to my sim card not having the correct default information? Is there a way to fix this?
....help

Here are a few tips:
1 in mobile settings click apn and make sure there is a green circle on thee right of the name for your apn. If not just tap on the circle once and out should turn green.
2 in mobile settings, click automatic network discovery then try step 1 again
3 open mms app, press menu and go to settings. Make sure auto retrieve is checked.
Let me know if this works or not.

@crazy25000: Thanks heaps, that led me in the right direction to correct the texting issue. I had no apn at all - no options and had to add it manually. I'm not sure that it worked, but perhaps. I did get to the right settings menu to fix the smsc number though, which is great.
I still feel like my sim card is not quite right - there seems to be no default data for the carrier on the sim.
Immediate problem solved though. thanks again.
i have done the same thing while fiddling with my vibrant. sms wont send because the gateway # is blank . what i did was pop it in a friends iphone and type **5005*7672*61411990001#
(61411990001 is optus smsc # yours may be different)
then i put it back in my vibrant and viola!
altho i still cant send or recieve mms..

Glad to great it's slowly getting resolved. If you don't have an apn, click on automatic network discovery in mobile settings and it will automatically generate the correct apn for your carrier. Keep me posted because this it's relatively easy to resolve so don't stress

Cannot receive MMS (Cyanogen) Not APN problem..

I have been having this problem for 6 months, finally its annoyed me to the point of asking for more help. If i take my SIM out of my phone and put it in my wifes, i can get picture messages no problem. if the SIM is in my s4 then i cannot. i will get an error message half our later saying message could not be downloaded.
I have verified my APN information, it matches exactly with what telus says it should be, and with what it on my wifes phone. Ive also talked to telus who couldnt do anything more to help me. everything is good on their end, and like i said it works when my sim is in my wifes phone, and we have the same APN settings.
I would love to be able to get pictures in texts, everyone sends them to me and i can never view them.
another issue is that i canont send picture messages unless i turn off wi-fi. if i dont it wont send and will eventually come back saying ti could not send. if wifi is off, sends no problem. i dont so much care about this one, but if anyone knows...
Thanks in advance!
anyone?

Make sure mobile data is enabled and/or you have your messaging app set to automatically download/enable data for downloads or whatever. MMS can only be sent over mobile data and sometimes it needs to be enabled manually to send and recieve.
Hehe GUI setting is not going to solve your problem, can you attach your /system/csc/customer.xml file please, I know exactly what's your problem m8
