G1 Recieving MMS - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know it has been a problem for the G1 to send/receive MMS messages from certain carriers, however I was wondering if any fix has been found. Currently my only problem is I cannot receive MMS messages from AT&T users, but sending/receiving with any other carrier works fine. Any ideas? Thanks!

tell them to put a subject on it, it will work

im on Cyanogen 3.6.8.1...it will work with a subject?

My girlfriend is on att, and that's the only way I can receive a mms from her. It works 100% of the time. No subject = no mms. Its annoying.

[Q] Can't get pictures in MMS

Hi All,
I'm using an xt862 on Koodo Mobile in Canada. They give you the APN settings to put into your phone, so my 3G data works fine. I can also send and receive all kinds of MMS except that I can't receive any pictures. I can send them just fine, and I can even receive sounds, but if anyone ever sends an MMS with a picture, then the message just disappears into the abyss.
Does anyone know why this is? I've tried it with both the stock messaging and GOSMS with the same result.

Would debranding help and/or is it even possible for Verizon Windows Mobile?

MMS and 5.1.1

Ever since hopping on 5.1.1 MMS has been sporadic for me.
I can receive fine, but sending is the problem. And doesn't matter if wifi calling is on or not.
T-Mobile says that they don't see attempts for MMS and filed a ticket to no avail.
It's driving me crazy. Any ideas?
I am rooted fyi.
On COF8
TWISTED SIXX rom (also happened on looper 5.1.1)
Google Messenger doesn't work
Stock Messaging shows sent but no one receives it.
this is really driving me crazy, i updated the mms port to 80 in apn settings to no avail.
If anyone got advice, would be appreciated.
i havent had any issues until tonight.. now my phone wont send them all the sudden.
I read that MMS were being disabled by one carrier due to that new Android vulnerability.. maybe that's why
I just figured out it was Google messaging... They updated the app today and lots of people are reporting it broke theirs too. Now I have to go back to the stock app which turns on the fricking screen for every text. I'll never understand that feature. Drives me insane.

For me it's texting as a whole that dies. My data still works otherwise, but SMS/MMS fail to send. Whenever it happens I clear cache/dalvik, reconnect to my wifi and it seems to fix it. Doesn't work every time though.
As far as I've noticed it happens randomly. I'll try to send a text and maybe 5-10 mins later I get a send failed receipt. If I just try to send it again without fiddling with my data it'll just hang again and fail.
Happens with stock and chompsms. I had the issue where my phone would say it had sent but the person wouldn't receive it. That only happened once though, every other time it's given me a fail. The thing is, even though it says it has failed, some of the texts make it through regardless - which obviously means I've been sending a lot of people the same message twice recently lol.

texts for me fail once mms hangs. Nothing will come in or out until I get network failure responses 10-15 min later.
Either way, what the hell t-mobile?

My experiences have been for the past 3 weeks.
Yeah I was referring to my problem. It sounds like others are dealing with something different than I am.

So it just happened again, several texts failed to send, but I got a "Unfortunately, IPsec Service has stopped" popup. Maybe it's something to do with whatever that is?

That's Wifi Calling.
I can confirm issue occurs regardless of wifi calling
For me SMS or MMS were not sending with VOLTE on. I turned it off and the issue was resolved

Yeah, i've tested with it on and off no luck.
So update, I've narrowed down the issue to APN settings and Google Messenger.
Google Messenger has a tough time recognizing our APN's because the APN fields do not have mms protocol options which is what google messenger looks for.
So my next question is, what is the most ideal APN settings?
I'm at my end with this. Gonna try a int'l rom and see if that helps at all
Update:
Int'l Rom MMS while connecting to wifi or not on google messenger stock messenger any messenger works flawlessly, tested 20 mms 4 a piece on 5 diff sms apps that previously weren't working.
Why are t-mobile roms inherently corrupt in this aspect?
Can someone adv what the EPC apn is? EPC.t-mobile.com ??
Can someone explain the difference between epc.t-mobile.com apn and fast.t-mobile.com ?
MMS fails 100% of the time on fast.t-mobile.com
MMS Is successful 100% of the time on epc.t-mobile.com
I had the problem of messages either not coming in or not sending until I set up a new APN with these settings -
In Settings > Connections > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names
Name: (whatever you want)
APN: fast.t-mobile.com
Proxy: Not set
Port: Not set
Username: Not set
Password: Not set
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
Multimedia message proxy: Not set
Multimedia message port: Not set
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
Authentication type: Not set
APN type: Not set
APN protocol: IPv4/IPv6
APN roming protocol: IPv4
Mobile virtual private network operator type: Not set
Set this as the APN to use and reboot your phone
It's basically the same APN settings that come with the phone with the exception of the APN type

Can't Send MMS With wifi On

Just picked up a H811 to replace my H851 and am having MMS issues. Could not send or receive MMS and thought it was an APN issue as I'm on ATT. Finally figured out it's only happen if wifi is connected. If it's off MMS is fine. Of course I've tried pretty mush all the different APNs and most of the stock and modified stock ROMs on XDA and all are the same. Anyone have a clue?

As far as I know you need to be connected to mobile data to send MMS messages.

Yes that seems to be the issue, when wifi is connected it's blocking the cellular data connection so MMS can't send or receive. Not extremely happy with the performance as the only game I play is Flappy Bird and it seems laggy, even on the debloated ROMS and different Kernals. Had a Nexus 5X with the same CPU and no issue. Probably just return this phone but will miss the LG UI

Can't send MMS

Received my OnePlus 3T yesterday. Love the phone and all seems to be working well. The only problem I'm having is with MMS. I've tried two different texting programs (Chomp and Android Messages) and neither can send or receive a photo.
The APN was set up correctly by default. I also tried creating an APN with the same settings and still doesn't work. Also, my APN settings perfectly match the APN settings on my wife's Honor 8 phone -- she can send and receive MMS but I can't.
Finally, I called my carrier (Telus / Canada) and we went through the settings one at a time and confirmed all is well. They were stumped. Since it is not a Telus purchased phone, there wasn't anything else they could do.
Any thoughts on what could be causing problems with sending / receiving pictures with MMS? Anybody else having this problem?
Help is appreciated -- thanks!
