Has anyone successfully gotten MMS to work with Note III & Straight Talk? - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone, first post here.
I had an old Straight Talk sim which only did HSPA. Everything worked perfectly, but missing LTE of course. I ordered a new Straight Talk sim and now I have great LTE speeds, but I find that I can only send MMS messages and cannot receive any (downloads fail).
I was just wondering if anyone here got it to work, and if so what settings have you used? I've tried almost everything that I can at this point.
Thank you in advance.
Edit: Sorry, just noticed we're not supposed to ask questions in here.

Unlocked HD2 with GoPhone SIM...MMS Help

Hey everyone, I've been a long time member/modder here. I have my first GSM phone now and am having an issue I can't figure out on my own. I have a tmobile branded HD2 thats unlocked, using an ATT GoPhone SIM card. I've got everything working great except MMS. I downloaded the ATT MMS fix, but that hasn't worked. I've also tried to manually set up the MMS settings. I've searched and searched, was wondering if anyone has a quick solution for me. Thanks!

find the regular connectionsetup.cab (have a look through my previous posts, i posted a copy a few days ago) and install that.
The tmous only has settings for t mo, whereas the regular one has settings for pretty much all the networks. ( I think it has at&t, not had any confirmation of that, but worth a try, far easier than manually setting it up)
I'm searching but can't find it. Any chance you can post it up? Thanks
Jay
kk, no worries
That link is a confirmed fix for anyone in the same position as me. Thank you for posting that .cab
Jay
Thanks for confirming. I have been giving that response out to at&t users for a while, but never bothered to get it confirmed.

[Q] Using an unlocked Imagio on AT&T ?

I'm looking to buy a new unlocked Imagio and use it with AT&T (Edge only). Most of the posts i have read says no problems but some said they could not make it work. Just trying to confirm before purchasing.
Thanks
HELP!
It worked fine on AT&T. The only problem I have is that I can not use the Internet or recieve MMS Messages. Can someone walk me through this process please. My unit is unlocked. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Did you setup the APN for AT&T ? I recently had to setup an LG unlocked phone for AT&T and used the info in this thread http://www1.gsmarena.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=25238. Use this info to set yours up.

flashed evo 4g cricket/ recieve msg, mms not supported?

Hello i have a 4g evo i have flashed to cricket and everything works 100% but the mms. I have flashed about 4 other EVO 4g phones so i know what i am doing. If i send a picture message to the phone it will not say i have a picture waiting to download or anything along those lines. But instead it sends me a txt message from a 866 cricket number saying the following, "Your phone has been sent a multimedia message which is not supported on your handset, please goto a local cricket store to see details on upgrading your phone." Any help would be greatly appreciated! thanks in advance to everyone!
someone please anser his question because that may help mine
I hate to say this because it's irritating when people say search when you already searched, but you really didn't.
searched "evo cricket mms fix" brought up lots of good results to read up on. the first is a mms fix for fresh rom.

Can not send/receive MMS on AOSP/CM

Hello everyone
Usually I can find the solutions to my problems by just googling or searching on this forum. Not this time though.
Every since my GS2 I've been using AOSP/CM roms as I like these the best. Back then I could never send any MMS and didn't think much about it. Now I have my GS4 and I already sent some MMS using the stock ROM. I was surprised that I could indeed send MMS as I always thought it would be an issue with my SIM card.
Now this weekend I have flashed PAC rom (was also using this ROM the most on GS2) and yet again, I can not send nor receive any MMS. I have checked my APN settings and everything is correctly set. Deleting the settings and reinserting them doesn't help.
Anyone else having any trouble like this or know how to solve this? Not being able to send MMS is really a deal breaker for me :\

Hello Emayljames
I live in Belgium and I'm on Proximus network, it's a pay-as-you-go SIM card.
I have the exact same problem. I remember having this problem on my s2 or s3 too. Can't seem to remember if I found a fix for it,or if it got fixed in a rom update...
It's a real bummer though,'cause for now I have to use Sammy-roms,and I hate that! Hope there's a fix for this soon!

[Q] S4 Not Getting Service

So i purchased a sprint s4 off somebody of craigslist. I asked if the imei was clean and they said yes. They seem like an honest person so i didnt bother to check the imei until i was on the way home. Turns out the fing **** was lying and no i am stuck with this phone. So i found this post on how someone with a similar situation got it to work on domestic carriers that are GSM. I tryed it and it was working flawlessly i was very happy. So i took out the sim card i was using to test and put it back in my normal phone LG G2 and the next day when i put the sim in the S4 again it stopped working. I did not change anything and it is just not working. I will link the post i followed hopfully someone could help me out.
