[Q] Cant send and recieve photo messages MMS - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I am having trouble sending an recieving photo messages, i am on orange payg and have just spent 30min talking to them and they dont know thr reason why.
My APN settings are
Name Orange MMS
APN orangemms
Proxy not set
Port not set
User Name Orange
Password Multimedia
Server not set
MMSC ://mms.orange.co.uk (has http before it)
MMS Proxy 192.168.224.10
MMS Port 8080
MCC 234
MNC 33
Authentication type PAP
APN type mms
Is there anything wrong with this???

Have you tried selecting the 'Auto-retrieve' and 'Roaming auto-retrieve' in: Messaging > Settings > (scroll down) Multimedia message settings? As for sending, try enabling 'Data roaming' in Mobile network settings. I am thinking that because Orange/T-mobile have merged, maybe you are trying to send/receive the message over the old T-Mobile network. Just a thought. Hope it works for you.

I've got the same settings as you, except one minor difference, I have a / at the end of the mmsc (ie http://mms.orange.co.uk/)

I have exactly the same problem and have also tried phoning Orange. They just talked me through the settings but I was already set up correctly. Very annoying! I would love to hear of a solution to this problem.

I can confirm that this problem has been around for me long before the merger, basically since I got my phone back in July.
@FloridaK - I also have the slash at the end, but it's not working.

ATT Tilt MMS Issues...

I've got a strange/annoying issue dealing with MMS messaging on my new Tilt.
Current goodies on the Tilt:
ROM: ShogunMark's Deathv4.1
3.55.502.1 WWE (6/15/08)
Radio: 1.65.20.29
SPL: HardSPL-3.56
As far as I can tell, I have all the current ATT network settings. I can send MMS messages, and anyone can receive them. I can send MMS to myself, and I can receive that. Another user on ATT can send me MMS. And I can send MMS to myself from my desktop email (using [email protected]). People on other networks (T-Mobile, Verizon, and Sprint that I've tested so far) cannot send me MMS. On their end, it shows everything being sent just fine, and they don't get any error messages. But I never receive the messages. Not even if they send the MMS to my phone's email addy from their device.
I talked to ATT support yesterday trying to verify the network settings, and the support rep couldn't even find what settings I was supposed to have. Though he did identify that a MMS enabled flag on my account was set to NO. He set that to yes, I reset the phone and reconnected to ATT.... and I still have the same issue. That network setting didn't seem to change anything.
I've read all the threads I can find about MMS issues, and none of them address this problem (at least that I can see).
At any rate, my current MMS server settings are as follows. Can anyone verify these for me?
Server name: AT&T MMS
Gateway: wireless.cingular.com
Port number: 80
Server address: http://mmsc.cingular.com
Connect via: MEdia Net
Send limit: 1200K
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
John
similar problem
I have an att tilt and gullums throttle diamond I multi language rom...i installed arcsoft latest version and now i have the menu and mms options under the menu tab in messaging and can send mms now but not receive....ive also tried installing the MMS medianet settings cabs posted another thread and still cannot receive ..ive also tried sending msgs to myself which does not work but if i reply to one of my own mms messages that i tried to send and select mms (you can select mms or sms options to reply) and then i can receive one of my own but this is the only message i am able to receive.
It ended up that the MMS flag on my account (that the support rep reset) was the culprit (I think). Two days after he made the change, I received a whole mess of media messages. Since then, I've had no problems at all, even going through several different ROMs.
Give ATT support a ring and see if they can figure anything out.

[Poll] Proposal for changes to messaging app

Hey guys I'm curious, before I make the change how many of us can access mms on our vogues?
I know my carrier (Bell Mobility, Canada) blocks them. what about the rest of you?
In android, winmo, or in general?
i can send with verizon but not recieve
I have verizon so I can send but not receive.
In truth I've never really used mms all that much on any phone.
On sprint, so I receive a link but not send.
interesting..
all right no worries then I was going to disable mms, but if it partially works for some of you we'll leave it.

It doesnt work right off the bat for me.It only sends on verizon for me if i change these settings. Recieving still doesnt work regardless. Mabye you can help get it going for us.
Go to Settings -> Wireless Controls -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names -> Android
Modify the following settings:
MMSC: http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms?X-VZW-MDN=<your ten-digit phone number>
MMS proxy: leave empty
MMS port: 80
MMS works if you use the right settings.
Unfortunately right settings is carrier-specific. And it's not server-provided.
Something is botching the receive messages though. That needs to be fixed.

A quick search of the 'nets says Bell Mobility does support MMS, they just charge you 50 cents per message.
I've seen:
MMSC Server: http://BellMMSC.bell.ca
User Agent: LGE-LG8700 UP.Browser/6.2.3.2 (GUI) MMP/2.0
User Agent Profile: http://uaprof.bellmobilite.ca/BMC_LGE_LG8700_CX87BL05.rdf
MMG IP: 206.047.201.009
MMG Port: 554
Buffer Length: 7
User Agent String: LGE-LGE8700 QtvPlayer/5.4
As an example of MMS settings.
Verizon allows the sending and receiving of MMS (pic messages) works on Winmo but only sending works on andoid. I believe jnadke mentioned that android does see the incoming message as a MMS but somehow the messaging app does not know how to retrieve it.

k I didn't open this thread for support . Bell blocks mms to vogue esns, which is why I said it doesn't work for me. As I already said I was going to disable the mms portion or the messaging app, but if you guys are able to use it I'll leave it alone.

What would benefit by disabling it?

Cant send mms?

I cant send or recieve MMS messages and neither can my friend who has the G1. We both dont have a data plan which is probably the reason. Is there some mod or app we can use to send/recieve picture messages
i dont know if im allowed to but bump.
Which provider are you with? You need to enter a separate APN entry for MMS.
im with tmobile. and now i can recieve mms but i still cant send
I don't know too much about T-Mobile, but try this:
Get to your APN settings (settings->Wireless Controls->Mobile Networks->Access Point Names)
If there isn't one there for MMS, create a new APN (Menu, New APN)
Enter in the following Settings:
Name: T-Mobile MMS
APN: http://216.155.174.84/servelts/mms
MMSC: http://216.155.174.84/servelts/mms
MMS Proxy: 216.155.165.050
APN Type: mms
leave the rest of the fields as whatever they default to, even if blank.
Let me know if this works out
will doing this charge me extra?

Major MMS issue. Please assist.

Hi everyone. I've had the HTC One through T-Mobile since the first few weeks of its release. One of the best features about it is Group MMS. That way I can be in a group chat with most of my friends who have iPhones. It was working flawlessly on both a stock T-Mobile ROM, and Android Revolution 8.0. About two weeks ago my friends kept telling me some of my messages were coming in as blank. I was able to see my own messages and I was able to see all of their messages in group form.
I would reboot my phone, and occasionally I would send a message that would be readable. I wasn't sure what was going on. I had T-Mobile reset my SIM card info from their end, I removed my SIM card, etc. That didn't fix it.
I also wiped my device completely last night. Installed a 4.3 ROM (InsertCoin) thinking it was going to remedy the situation. But no...I am still sending blank messages.
What could be the issue here? Why would this stop working out of the blue, and wiping doesn't fix the situation!
Normal SMS is fine!
Please help!

I will try, but why would it just stop working out of nowhere? I also stated I reset it to factory settings as well, and even tried a new ROM. I didn't alter APN settings.
Edit: Just checked, APN settings are correct.

IDK, The only thing I know, is that I had this issue with my One X last year just after going from stock rom to cyanogenmod. no mms and sms working fine. I deleted my APN and created a new with correct info (mine from Rogers) and everything were working again.
Maybe flashing rom erase apn settings? idk. Just try, its very simple to check before going deeper.

Nope, I checked. The APN settings are there, locked, not able to be changed, and are correct.
Like I said, Group MMS works. I can see everyone's messages in the group. It's when I send one that it works on and off. This only started happening a few weeks ago. It was perfect for months.
It seems like I'm not the only one...
Anyone know what to do about this???????

the second to last post in that thread has a suggestion. Install the new Hangouts app with SMS integration and you'll be all set. Then you'll be used to it when we get our 4.4 update (or when Hangouts updates from it's 4.3 version, whichever is first)

I don't want to use third party apps (even though it's Google).
I should be able to use the stock messaging app like I've been using for months.

Unable to send text message.

Hi guys.
I switched from AT&T to IDEA when I moved back to India.
I was able to send messages when I was on AT&T.
But now that I am on IDEA, I am not able to send the mesaage.
I receive below message. I tried multiple SMS apps but none worked. Any help will be appreciated.
Error:- message not sent. Phone number not formatted correctly.
I am using nexus 6 with stock 7.1.1 (august security patch)
https://www.komparify.com/blogs/index.php/apn/idea.html
Check your APN. Also, is your N6 a US model or world model?
My N6 is a us model. Also why would internet settings (APN) are required for text messaging? Internet works fine with LTE.
Text messaging is enabled through three fields in the APN: "MMSC", "MMS proxy" and "MMS port". In order for text messaging to work those fields must be filled in. In the case of my carrier, Straight Talk, it uses AT&T's settings for text messaging. In the APN it looks like this.
Code:
MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS port: 80
In taking a second look at the Idea APN, it doesn't appear to use those settings, but you might want to get a hold of Idea and ask them what is going on. It's unlikely the device itself is the issue, but being an XT1103 I have no way to know for certain.
I think it's has to do with # formatting. I had Tuenti Movistar app in Spain and when came back was getting incorrect format message as all #s were prefixed with +34 Spain country code by default. Uninstalled app and was fine with text and calling

Thank you Strephon , Hjicons,
The issue resolved after changing the SIM. so it seems the sim was faulty or something.
Thanks,
