This thing has been bothering me for weeks. I am using AT&T and sms function just won't work. I can send my message and my phone tells me its sent, but the message really didn't go through. I can not receive nor send message in my phone. I wonder are there any setting that I can change?
Also I have tried many ROMs, now I am using Acer official rom still out of luck.
Thanks!
ok nevermind this is kind of silly.... AT&T blocked my SMS function even though I have SMS plan on... call them tmr and my problem should be sloved
i guess thats just how AT&T rolls
So i have had the HTC Aria for almost a month, and still the MMS issue has not been resolved i can send just find to verizon phones, but i cannot receive anybody know a fix for this, would rooting my phone help at all? or maybe some sort of app that does a force receive or some sort. i never had issues getting pictures on my BB Pearl.
i have the same problem, but found a way to work around it. What the sender needs to do is send to like an email attachment.
AT&T (formerly Cingular)
[10-digit phone number]@txt.att.net
[10-digit phone number]@mms.att.net (MMS)
[10-digit phone number]@cingularme.com
Example: [email protected]
Let me know if it works
Is there a way to have all incoming txt convert over so if i have non tech savy people sending it i dont have to explain that to them (if it works)
Ok.. either/all:
Call verizon and enable picture messaging on your account.
Send a picture message to yourself.
hard reset.
return phone
Picture messaging is enabled and im on ATT, its the verizon customers that send me messages i cant receive since upgrading to the HTC Aria. im thinking of just switching to verizon, all verizon customers never have issues it seems like.

I just asked one of my friends on verizon to send me a picture and it appears I have the same problem. I'm hoping there's a way around this.

I think if people are having the same issue, they should be calling AT&T and complaining about it, so that AT&T is forced to reconize this as a common issue, because the ATT representative told me "THERE HAVE BEEN NO OTHER COMPLAINTS WITH THIS DEVICE YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE"

man.... something needs to be done lol i even stayed on tech for an hour about this
i not shocked that they would tell me that mainly due to that THEY DONT EVEN KNOW WHATS WRONG, mmmmm i upgrade to a newer phone, and suddenly i cant get picture messaging......lucky i got a great representative the 2nd time around who's actually pushed it up to to as many levals as she is able to and has told me she will figure it out and that she's even read up on similar issues trying to resolve it. at least there are a few good Representatives out there who do there job as expected.
Just posting to confirm this. I did a test with my friends and had them all send me MMS. Two from Verizon, two from T-Mobile, and one from Sprint. I never received the messages from the Verizon phones. I even had them send a regular SMS afterwards and those were received with no problems. If it were a settings issue or user error it would not be isolated to the Verizon phones. As someone else has said, if you're having this issue contact support with AT&T and hopefully with enough people it won't be some throw-away issue for them.
i agree with you, as well as AT&T first told me that it was the Verizon Customer, i told them the same phones that have sent me images in the past i could get on my BB Pearl, and that they were still able to receive my images, its incoming, i even told the guy if there's some territory mob war going on between verizon and AT&T to just let me know so i can consider the issue resolved, he assured me there wasnt, i personally think its a error converting the images over on the GSM network, w/e the issue is, the Droid X is looking very nice w/ the 8MP Camera
im in savannah ga. using the same sim card for last several phones... on liberated b005.
I can get picture messaging from verizon customers that are my friends. And I was getting them BEFORE I rooted, too!
Its not the phone its USER ERROR.. lol jk idk whats wrong with you guys' phones
it might also have something to do with more populated area's i live in souther cali, so maybe it has to do with populated cities. or something to specific areas. and i doubt its user error seems as i was getting pictures fine before upgrading to HTC Aria, at first ive changed the sim card, as well as the phoen and still issue, even the lady at the kiosk had verizon and sent me a picture and i never got it.and she was verizon.
i spoke with an att tech support rep today and she confirmed to me that there was a known issue with mms between some carriers for some users. She tried to change some routing number within my account settings and told me to power cycle my phone in the morning and try to test it again to see if i can recieve a mms from verizon and if not to call tech support back.
I haven't had any problems whatsoever, I've received countless pictures from my friend whose on Verizon and they come through promptly.
I cannot send or receive from verizon and I can only receive from sprint liberated running 003 . I get an error message saying unsupported data

so i had a friend on a verizon person send me a message today, and at least on the phone its not sending them a message saying i got it, however the ATT rep on wed. told me that they are seeing traffic coming in that is MMS.
So today I was able to receive a Image from Verizon phone!!!! Have the sender reply to a txt from you and attach the image that way. Idk why it makes a difference but if they select the image and then choose you to receive it. So have then reply ajd add the image that way!!!! Hope this works for everyone!!!!!

Throwing in my 2c here as well. No issues.
So this may be a question i'll direct at my service provider (Sprint), but I thought I would ask here too.
When I try to send text messages to my dad (AT&T Iphone), he never receives them. When I try to send them to my mom or sister (both AT&T Iphone), they do receive them.
My dad can send them to me and I receive them fine, they just never show up on his phone. I've never had an issue with anyone else receiving them.
Has anyone else ever experienced this?
Hello folks... I have an HD2, and i used the very good rom from tytung, nexus hd2 1.3a nativeSD. Everything worked as it should, till one day unexpectedly the phone stopped being able to receive SMS. I can make calls, send sms, but i am unable to receive SMS. I tried asking my friends to send me a text message, and on their phone (whatever the brand) it doesn't send me the message.
This has never happened to me before. I am on Vodafone Portugal. I seem to be barred on the network from receiving SMS, considering that i can make and receive phone calls properly, as well as send sms to others, but not receive them? Super strange thing that i never seen before...
I don't think it's a rom problem, but i decided to try the following just to make sure:
-factory reset
-wipe everything
-full clean install
-restore backup from older date
None worked, and the problem remains... Have you guys seen this happen before?

I can't say I have encountered this in the past but as far as I know, tmobile in the US can block sms from reaching a phone. This is usually done based on a request from a customer who has no wish to pay for text messages. As far as I know the customer could still send texts (and be billed for them) but will not receive any (no need to worry about junk texts).
I have no idea if this could be your situation but thought it may be worth investigating.
If you have another phone which you know can receive text messages maybe you can move the sim card to it and see if incoming sms works. If not, your provider is blocking them from going to your number. If yes, you are back where you started.

Only in America do you pay to receive texts so its unlikely to be this.
That's not to say it isn't a network problem, so @op, first thing would be speak to your network, and try a different sim.

Sad but probably very true. Our telcos are twisted.
Anyway, I was hoping to illustrate that the provider/network could be the culprit so I think we basically agree.

Problem is fixed! turns out it was network related, and i can now receive SMS. Thanks anyway folks!
I have been having a strange issue with receiving mms on my verizon note 3. I am part of a group text thread, and some people's texts will come through, while others will not. I don't get any indication that any message was sent but everyone else in the thread received it. Then some messages start coming through.
For example, we were texting to meet up and trying to decide on a date. Everyone who could come this week replied, but only two of those people's texts came through to me, and I thought no one else replied, so wanted to cancel. Then I was told that others had said that they could come, but I didn't get their texts.
I am on TracFone, which is an ATT MVNO. I had the same sim in my galaxy s3 and had zero issues. The problems started after I changed to the note 3. I am on OF1 baseband, running Darklord international ROM with TMB CSC. I had to be specific with the model and CSC just to get mms to work at all. Now, I am getting some but not others. Before, when I had the wrong combination of model and CSC, I would get an error saying that the file could not be retrieved. This happened with all incoming mms. And I couldn't send any mms at all either. Now I can receive and send mms, but some don't come through at all, with no error message or anything. When and whose mms comes through and doesn't come through seems to be random as well. Has anybody had similar problems? Is there any fix? The phone is great but this is a huge problem for me. Thanks in advance.
