XT907 Android 4.4 messaging problems. - Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I installed the 4.4 rom on my XT907 and it works great. Fast and super smooth. The only issue so far is that I can not seem to send pictures in a text. I've tried the stock app. handscent and Verizon messaging. None of them seem to be working. Anyone have any insight on how to work a round this?

Apparently MMS is broken. Nothing we can do about it ATM...

That's what I was thinking and I know this is very early alpha but to be honest of that is fixed this rom is good enough for a daily driver. I also had a little noise when listening to Pandora One over Bluetooth I haven't had much of a chance to try anything with that this far. However the noise was not there while running the Carbon ROM 4.3 dailies.

There is also no options to change the apn settings. On the 4.4 thread in the general section, someone mentioned that mms works when using the phone w/t-mobile. The rom is also based off of the tmobile moto x. Hopefully someone will figure it out soon.

Ahhhh that makes sense then as I am on Verizon. I'm hoping that someone can get it working. I am very impressed at how well this works so far. Dhacker and the rest really do great work.

in the FWIW department, I don't use stock messaging for sending pics. given that google hangouts has taken over messaging capabilities, I just send pics via hangouts (granted, the other user must have hangouts as well, but since all androids have hangouts and hangouts is available for iPhone, I've just convinced my iPhone friends to get the app).
otherwise, I would normally send pics via e-mail or post them to my picasa web album and send folks a link instead - that way, it won't count against my mobile data.

Stupid question but, where is this Kit kat Thread/ rom?
EDIT: Doh, I found it in General, I was looking in Development. _thanks!

work around for receiving MMS (not sure if sending works) is to download 8sms (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thinkleft.eightyeightsms.mms&hl=en).
In setting add your phone number and chage MMS port to 80. Dont remember where I read this but it works for receiving MMS

Messaging app for Nexus 7

Before I got my Nexus, I used my Droid X as my primary internet browsing device. Now, of course, I use my Nexus for that but I don't have an easy way of sending links or pictures to all my friends (preferably straight to their SMS inboxes). I'm using Google Voice for texting but you can't send pictures. Anyone have any good alternatives? It would be nice to have a hacked stock Messaging app that can utilize your Google Voice number or something but I'm not sure how feasible this is. Also if anyone could assist me in getting calls to work through the Voice app I'd appreciate that too
Check out Tablet Talk in play store. Don't know if u can send pictures though.

[SOLVED] Why won't my Nexus 4 send MMS on AT&T?

I've had it for four days now and I still haven't successfully sent an MMS message. Receiving one seems to be no problem. Here's a screen shot of the APN I'm using if that will be of any help.

Try disconnecting from WiFi and try to send a MMS after that.
I believe there is some bug that causes this issue.

I had an MMS problem recently, after switching phones. Calling AT&T and telling them my problem got it fixed. I just needed my SMS/MMS plan reset.

I see you are using GoSMS. I had a problem where GoSMS can't send MMS on the N4. Try sending through the stock SMS app. It worked fine for me.
Working fine here with that APN and using stock messaging app.

And that did the trick. I usually stay away from the normal Messaging app because Go is just better in all aspects. It sucks that there's apparently a problem that won't allow MMS to go through. Hopefully it's fixed in the next update because it's literally my favorite and most used Android app.

Yep, I loved using GoSMS too. But the SMS app with the popup is pretty decent.
Btw, you might want to put [Solved] into your thread title now
I am using the same APN as OP minus pta. I am using phone. I cannot send nor receive mms. Any suggestions. I am using the stock message app.

MMS over WiFi (T-Mobile)

I searched, but the mobile app sucks for filtering results so hopefully someone has an answer.
Is there anyway to send MMS over WiFi on T-Mobile? I know I could use a WiFi messaging app like whatsapp, but I don't want it to be something were both parties need it installed.
Anyone have a hacked MMS.apk I can side load that does this?
I'm currently on xenon ROM and it doesn't support this feature.

No, you need mobile data on your plan or you'll likely be charged for not adhering to your plan bounds.

I have mobile data on my plan. My problem is that in my house I only have a couple bars of edge service. So when I send a group message via MMS it takes forever and if I send a picture message it takes hours if it sends at all.

There's no other way. Perhaps you can complain to Tmo about your service or get a signal booster from them.

Well that stinks. Reason I ask is b/c someone told me that the MMS.apk in ChaOS ROM has this feature. I was able to get the MMS.apk for that ROM, but didn't have success side loading it on xenon ROM.
I didn't care for chaOS ROM to even see if it was true or not.
What is the proper way to side load an MMS.apk? I renamed my currentcmms.apk to MMS.apk.bak and than moved the new MMS.apk to system/app and installed it. Changed permusssions and Rebooted the phone, but the app would just fail.
Than it was a pain to get the original to work again.

The only thing i can recommend is using gosms app. It sends sms and mms over wifi.

It doesn't send of Wi-Fi what it does is enable your mobile data long enough to send the mms and then goes back to Wi-Fi. You can't send mms over Wi-Fi unless the same app is installed on both phones. There are some messaging apps that claim to so it but what they do is download the app to their servers and then tries to send it with their messaging system. Which is against most laws but legal in come countries.

What SMS app do you use?

Hey guys. With the new hangouts there are a lot of the features from previous SMS apps missing. Like the quick pop up reply from notification menu and multiple contacts.
I like hangouts and to be honest I'd like to use just one app only. Using Textra and it is awesome but can I uninstall hangouts and just use Textra on its own? What you guys use

I use google voice, barely any improvements, very buggy. But I haven't found anything better for texting thru voice. Also kakaotalk which is very bloated. I want a clean app that has option to send/not send push notifications. Know any?
I'm glad u said Hangouts is mandatory, I hate that. Can't we revert back to an older version and not be forced to use proprietary crap.
Hangouts is NOT mandatory, you can use any texting app you want.

Yea totally not Mandatory I used it for a week or so as my default sms application but then i switched back to the regular that came with the phone.
I use Hangouts. Its functional and full featured. The only annoying thing is that convos with the same person are separated by SMS and IM hangouts.

Unless something has changed I will stay with handcent, I never liked Go SMS Pro, or any Go product... But you never know, if its better for some reason I would try it.

2 bugs in facebook
Facebook APP = black transparent background

Wifi-theter not working
Rom works very well for me
Any browser that uses its own web engine instead of the built-in one doesn't work (exception being Chrome, Chrome Beta and Opera somewhat (Opera still crashes a lot)). So for example Dolphin, Firefox and Boat don't work, but Lightning, Naked and Maxthon work

Wouldn't it be wiser to make this list when a consumer version comes out. It would be safe to say a lot of apps aren't going to be working. Seems a tad redundant.
