AT&T MMS issue - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've tried to change my APN's. I've used both the Cingular one that was default, and the AT&T HPSA+ one that was posted on here. At first things were ok, but now Picture messages won't send. My data still works, but it's slow. I used to use Handcent and it was fine, then I went to ChompSMS when Handcent stopped sending mms, and now Chomp doesn't either.
Any help anyone? I've tried searching but I've already used the APN settings I found on the forum.

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] Not receiving pics and sending youtube video question

Been having this issue on and off for awhile I believe it started before I rooted and still is happening on and off. About 50 percent of the time when someone send me a text with a pic I get a broken image like the image is broken and then sometime it comes through fine. It is getting pretty annoying and being the fact that the main phone im receiving pics from is another lg g2 on the verzion network, my phone is on the att network currently running cyanogenmod 11 04/27 version, I also add this issue on the stock software and a few other roms. Also when I send a youtube video now it sends in two separate texts causing the link to be corrupted.
I have had the same problems with my G2. I never knew when it would work or not. I seemed to have permanently fixed it by downloading a 3rd party sms app to replace the stock lg messages. I settled on chomp sms but I had to play around with a few other apps.
Next I set my mms max file size to 300k ....sending and receiving through chomp sms so far has been perfect. Not one failed send or receive.
I have looked all over for a stock messages app that will do the same.

I like the way chomp looks so im going to try that, so you set your mms to 300kb? My is set up at 600kb by default. Ill try 300

Yeah it was the least intrusive. Default is 600 and I tried that but I would still miss receiving MMS and also I couldn't send. 300 would always work. It may be because I use an att mvno hence the crappy service.
Play around with the settings though. Hopefully something will work for you as it has for me.

Phone won't send (but can receive) MMS

Hey all. I've had my Galaxy S4 for about a year now, and I've installed a plethora of custom roms. I'm currently running stock touchwiz on my device. I've noticed that my device can receive but not send MMS message. This has been an ongoing problem for several months and I haven't been able to figure it out. Before I switched to stock 4.4.2, I couldn't even get MMS messages, and today my co-worker sent me a successful MMS. But I still can't send them. I don't have an APN settings option in my settings, so I updated my profile etc. through my Sprint Zone app. I'm completely lost and have noooo idea how to get my MMS messages to send. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hey bryguy9021, thanks for the reply. I tried opening voice dialer and speaking APN but received an error that says "I have no specific answers for that. Let me do a search for an answer to apn". I tried speaking "Open APN settings" and it simply took me to my connections menu. But there is still no option for APN.
I've been having this same issue for a LONG time now. I've read a lot of cures, I ended up messing with my APNs manually and got things REALLY cocked up. I heard that 8sms would work better than the default messaging app and have been using that, but I still can't send MMS messages. I've pretty much given up at this point.

MMS only working in Messenger

Hi, so I recently picked up this 6P, but I'm having a problem with MMS. I have been using EvolveSMS for quite some time, but MMS messages aren't working. They work perfectly in Messenger though.
I've tried other apps, like Message+ and Textra, none of which work either.
I'm on Verizon's service and have tried using just wifi as well.
Anyone else have similar issues or know what might be wrong?
Thanks !

Nevermind.. I got it!
Apparently the other text apps weren't using the APN settings from the device and I had to set them manually. Never had that happen on a device before, odd.
Which APN setting did you use? Which carrier?

Verizon. In EvolveSMS there was actually a "System Controlled MMS" setting under the APN settings. That picked up the APN settings from the phone.
I hadn't thought to look there initially since that wasn't an option in EvolveSMS on my old phone.
I didn't bother trying in Message+ or Textra since I don't use them.

Verizon MMS won't download

Having issues with download mms. Some apps work like stock and pulse, but others like yaata, mood, etc don't. I can't edit the apn settings in the native settings app, so does anyone have any suggestions?
Are you cdma_less?
If not, then search. There's a hundred messages about it.

Yes.
For me it seems that mms is working in some messaging apps and not others. Signal, for example, cant download mms messages but when i use the default messaging app it seemed to work okay, at least for group messages. SMS works on all and it's been set to CDMA-less

Exactly what I'm dealing with. Yaata, textra and mood doesn't download mms at all and I use yaata so I really wanna know what a fix could be.

Yeah. I'm in the same boat. Everything is work on the OP6T after hours with Verizon and my own investigation. Pulse, stock, Textra, Android Messages, Chomp, Verizon message all work properly (sms/mms send/receive). Yaata and Mood won't download mms. Can't change APN on phone
I tried changing the apn via adb. It didn't save. Also tried editing the apn dB file but that made the phone shut down instantly when you get past the boot animation.
I used to use ChompSMS buy couldn't get MMS messages to download. QKSMS has been working great so far with 0 issues!!!

Just tried Qksms and it works too. Seems only Yaata and Mood won't download mms. Interesting how the most customizable sms apps are the ones that don't work properly. You'd like to think that with all the customization we'd be able to tweak it to get it to work? Sucks because I really liked Yaata; so much that I purchased it back in the early days. And I like Mood too. Wrote to their support so we will see what they say....

I liked chomp because it has a lock screen quick reply. But not getting MMS is kinda dealbreaker.
I just had this issue with ChompSMS. Under Settings > MMS, I changed Carrier Send Limit = 1MB, and MMS Behavior = System. Forced Closed ChompSMS and reopened it. Seems to be working ok so far most of the time.
Just to add to this I'm having the same issue downloading MMS with Signal.
Verizon user here with CDMA-less mode enabled and all that junk!
I'm running into the same issue with my 6T using Chomp. I saw this about 2 weeks ago and fixed the issue by uninstalling Chomp, then clearing the cache on MMSservice, then reinstalling Chomp. I then tested it every which way I could think of sending tests from my wifes phones (whos on ATT). All were received without issue, SMS, MMS, group texts (which send as MMS).
However now just this morning it's popping up again. Considering more than just Chomp is having the issue (based on this thread) it seems to me it's either a Pie issue, or maybe something with OOS. Searching around though I've seen a lot of people have the same issue back after just upgrading to Nougat on various phones. So if i had to guess i'd say it's more an OS level issue with our fav text apps needing a small tweet somewhere.
For reference:
OOS 9.0.7
Rooted
Call record module
Viper module
Having this issue as well. Going to try QKSMS now.
I used to use Cuomo but couldn't get MMS to work and I true everything.
Using qksms and have had 0 issues!!
Hmmm I'm still having issues with QKSMS. I'm trying to dual sim at&t and Verizon but can never never get full functionality. Closest I was able to get was AT&T fully working but only able to send with Verizon. Otherwise it's one working fully and the other not working at all.
Anyone running dual lte?
**edit**
Also, anyone tried Havoc or MIUI?
ChompSMS was updated yesterday. MMS issues still remain though.
I switched over to QKSMS after my initial post and haven't had a problem yet. Although it took a few weeks for it to show up with Chomp as well so I'm still "waiting". So odd that some of you see it constantly, where it takes a couple weeks for it to crop up for me.
Still rocking the same OS and mods as my previous post for reference:
OOS 9.0.7
Rooted
Call record module
Viper module
Working with the ChompSMS dev to get MMS working. His other app Textra seems to be working well with MMS so far.
