Mms issues cant send/rec - ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers

I didn't notice this before but I'm able to send SMS and receive them just not MMS - today a friend sent a pic and I could not open it. Carrier is Verizon not sure if that matters because I'm seeing others have the same issue with other carriers.
Messenger or google messenger doesn't download them either.
Is there anything I can do?
Thanks

Any problems with MMS. no matter what phone or rom, always ALWAYS triple check your APN. A phone call to Verizon will verify if you have the correct APN and make sure there isn't problems on their end.

& remember that Verizon "thinks" it is Roaming (although not), so insure you have your MMS settings set appropriately

Yep just did and works great now! Thanks

OK so... I had to factory reset my phone and right away had issues... tried to send a text message and it didn't work. So I went through the steps of setting the APN up. But it hasn't worked.
I've done the whole thing with using a GSM sim to get the + and add APN...but nothing.
Anyhow, I was hoping someone can tell me the latest APN settings for Verizon. Perhaps they have changed. I'm just getting really cheesed off with all of this and nothing seems to be working. I love this phone but this is just getting on my nerves now.
Please help thanks

These are the APN values I'm using on Verizon postpaid: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68263623&postcount=61

Thanks!
I'm using pre paid will that make a difference?
I was having a bad day yesterday. Im in the right mind to get this fixed now.

Should be the same values for Verizon Prepaid (different if you're on a Verizon MVNO). Did you make sure to enable Data Roaming?

having problems receiving and sending mms

Having a lot of problems with my mms. When I send a mms most of the time it wont send and when it does it takes awhile for it to send out. And the problem I am having with receiving is I get the message but I cant download the actual attachment sometimes. I had this same problem on my touch pro 2 and now I am facing it on my hd2. I've been called T-mobile several times about this issue and its really pissing me the hell off because their not doing anything about it. I am running regular stock rom. I also have a new sim card.
When I had that problem on my TP2, it went away after a hard-reset.
Did the tmo tech support walk you through making sure your network settings were all correct?

Is your T-Mobile Data connection setup to use epc.tmobile.com? (settings-connections-manage existing connections) That's the first setting they should have checked with you, there may be others that could affect MMS send/receive capabilites, I'm not sure.

[Q] Switched to At&t and cant make or receive calls. data works, though

I had to switch from TMobile to At&t for work reasons. I got the Samsung Focus on At&t and I love it, but I flashed Android on my HD2 hoping that I would have the best of both worlds: a WP7 and an Android phone equivalent to the Inspire 4G.
The good news is that when I put my At&t SIM Card on my HD2, it registers and says At&t, and the data works fine (EDGE, but nothing is perfect, i knew that 3G was not going to work because of the different frequencies At&t and TMobile use), the bad news is that I'm not able to make or receive calls or texts.
Anyone has any idea how to make the HD2 with Android work on At&T?
Please ignore the part of my sig where it says that i'm running windows mobile, although i'm willing to flash it if that is the solution, but i want to play with Android for a while.
Any help will be appreciated!
Cheers!
You will have to unlock the phone. Call T_Mobile and they can generate a unlock code for you.
My phone is unlocked... any other ideas?
Did you go to Settings/Mobile Networks/Network Operators/Search Networks and choose AT&T as your carrier? In the same menu, you can Select Automatically so that you don't have to manually choose which carrier is available in your area.
AT&T is the only carrier that shows up whether i select it manually or automatically.

That's strange. Seeing your moniker and knowing you were on T-Mobile, it should also show up. Since your phone is unlocked like mine, I used to be on AT&T and would see both carriers when I did a search of the airwaves. Did you check your APN settings so that they are set up for AT&T?
Here's the link to the ATT APN thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=692059

Nothing worked, so I flashed windows mobile and now everything works fine (except 3g, of course). I guess it is something with Android. I'm sure someone will figure it out...
Thanks for the help, though.
try a different rom. might be the rom you're using... try an unofficial cyanogenmod7 rom and flash with cwm.
Same Problem
I have the same problem with my HD2. It's been flashed to gingerbread 2.3.6 and unlocked. I can get data, but I can't make calls or send texts. I'm wondering if you fixed yours! If so, I'd really appreciate it if you could help me out

[Q] No service after trying LTE

Hi
I was playing around with my phone and tried the old hack through the settings screen, *#*#4636#*#*.
Switched it to LTE and set up a new APN for Rogers LTE.
It Didn't work. After more reading I discovered this wouldn't work for me anyway. I have Android 4.4.2 and I don't think my SIM is LTE enabled.
I rebooted thinking it would just go back to the original settings.
It seems to have gone back but now I have No signal at all.
I am with Rogers. I tried going back to the original APN settings and selecting Rogers.
The phone is finding the correct networks for my area.
I tried the Reset to default in the APN settings. This sets the APNs to Rogers LTE and chatr, not the original Rogers APN that I started with.
The phone is rooted but running stock Android 4.4.2.
The baseband seems correct.
What have I done and how do I fix it?
Have I done something to the Rogers SIM?
Thanks

Had to assume that because I've never seen someone try LTE without doing so.
What you can try is find the stock radio, which might still be the same as you are using, then flash it. Maybe that will reset things back to normal.

No luck.
I tried flashing the stock radio then flashed everything using efrant's instructions. Still no go.
The thing I find strange is when I select Reset to default in the APN settings it sets the APN to Rogers LTE not the default 3G setting.
Delete the Rogers LTE apn and make a new one with this info:
Name: Rogers
APN: rogers-core-appl1.apn
MMSC: http ://mms.gprs.rogers.com
MMS Proxy: 10.128.1.69
MMS Port: 80
MCC: 302
MNC: 720
APN Type: mms
You can also try this one:
APN: internet.com
Username: wapuser1
Password: wap
Go to phone info *#*#4636#*#*, and change network type to WCDMA Preferred. Reboot, and see if that does it.
I've done that several times.
Still won't connect.
The error is; No service. Selected network (ROGERS) unavailable.
When I search networks Telus, Bell and Rogers all show up.
I've tried selecting Rogers and selecting automatically. When I select automatically it selects Rogers but comes back with the same error.

That was already suggested.
I have tried wiping everything out and flashing a complete stock 4.4.2.
I've also tried another Rogers SIM.
This is getting ridiculous.
All I did was change a setting from "WCDMA Preferred" to "LTE/GSM auto (PRL)" and back again and that killed a phone?

I find this very strange. I use the secret menu on two phones but have never heard of this happening. My N4 will only lose signal for a few moments before switching to gsm autoprl, after switching from LTE/GSM.

Mystery solved.
I don't know why it happened at exactly the time when I tried LTE but...
The phone has been reported lost or stolen.
I bought it over two weeks ago. I checked the IMEI on the Government web site, that is supposed to protect us from this kind of thing, and it came back clean. I checked again last night and it's blacklisted.
I would say the girl that I bought it from got it on a $0 contract. Sold it then reported it lost or stolen. She's still on the hook for the contract but, so what, she'll never really have to pay it. Either that or it takes 2-3 weeks for a phone to show up on the blacklist.
Either way, the Government initiative to blacklist stolen or lost phones sounded like a good idea but in reality it's not protecting anyone.
So, now I have a small tablet and learned a lesson. Don't buy used cell phones and if you do, don't trust the protectyourdata.ca web site to protect you.
The site boasts;
"Purchasing a pre-owned device?
Check the IMEI number here to ensure the device has not been reported lost or stolen in Canada."
Thanks for trying to help folks. I did learn more about Android through this.

I've seen about 2 or 3 threads on Android Central with the same symptoms that seemed to never get resolved.
I suspect they had the same problem and either didn't know how to check or were to embarrassed to say.
I was upset but I want others to be able to find this answer.
Through buying and selling different phones working my way up to the Nexus 4 I'm really only $110 out of pocket.
A 16GB Android media player with WiFi must be worth $110.
So, is there a way to eliminate the wireless radio and leave WiFi?
I guess I should start another thread on that.

Airplane mode also turns of the WiFi.
I just pulled the SIM, deleted all APNs, turned off Mobile Data and left WiFi on.
The warning that I had no data connection is gone and I still have the ability to make a 911 call if necessary.
Unlocked, rooted and flashed a USB-OTG enabled kernel. This is great fun...

You can turn wifi on with airplane mode on as well. Just do it after airplane mode is already on.

SM-N9005 - No 4G LTE.

Hello guys. I have a long story for you, but I am just gonna keep it very short.
I've had trouble with 4G LTE on TWO Galaxy Note 3's.
I got my first one about 4 months ago, then I got a new device about 1 month exactly because of 4G not working.
However, it is still not working.
My first phone was 100% stock, never rooted and never played with. So was my 2nd phone, and LTE still didn't work. However, it's rooted with CM11 nightly with temasek kernel on it right now, and still no 4G LTE.
I've talked a lot with my carrier (Telenor DK, Denmark) and they sent me a new SIM-card, which did not work help with the missing LTE either. I just called them again today and they double checked everything and told me that I was totally ready to go with 4G LTE.
(The location is not the problem as I've been VARIOUS places with no connection to 4G.)
All the network options are as they should be, etc. However there is still NO 4G LTE.
I then started to read on a lot of posts from this forum, and I may have come to the conclusion that my phone has different frequencies or different LTE bands than my country has? I'm not sure, but I THINK that my carrier (Telenor Denmark) uses 800mhz band.
I don't know if Cat4 is some american only standard or so? I'm not sure, I hope you guys can help.
This is what it says on the box: http://i.imgur.com/JLSrR0b.jpg?1
There is also the european certifcation sticker on the front: http://i.imgur.com/jTxqtzS.jpg?1
You won't be able to see it, but it is a shiny/glittering sticker that says "Approved for Nordic Operators" and as you might have guessed, I live in Denmark.
And at last, some screenshots of the phone: http://imgur.com/a/IHs5N - As you can see, LTE and everything is checked.
I'm not really sure what I can do more. I hope you guys have any idea of what the cause of me not being able to have 4G LTE network.
Many thanks!

Thanks for your reply.
I should have mentioned, that I already tried to play with exact these settings, without luck.
However, I did it again since it had been a long time, and sadly again no luck.
The APN settings seems to be correct set up by default.
EDIT: I have a feeling it's because my LTE radio doesn't run the right frequency/mhz. Is there anyway that I can check if that's the problem?
And for clarity, I have never seen the 4G logo on my phone. My connection is 3G / H+ 50/50 of the time.

Telenor Denmark uses 1800Mhz for its LTE network so it should be compatible as you are using a Note 3 N9005 as listed on GSMArena Note 3.

Okay thanks! great to have that out of the way.
Now, I'm just asking out of curiousity.
What does the Cat4 on the box in the LTE section mean? Could it be anything with that?
Does that mean Band 4? .. Because it looks like Telenor uses band 3? Now. I have no idea what I am talking about and if this really matters, but please correct me if I am wrong.
EDIT: Also, my phone has a 4G logo on the back of the slim case you get with it. I've heard some people say that it's only the american models that get these?
It looks like this: http://goo.gl/UUJXCK - It says 4G in the middle where it says Galaxy Note 3 on this one.

I believe Cat 4 is just a hardware standard indicating peak datarates.
Try selecting the mms apn rather than the internet one and see if that changes anything.
I had a similar issue with Telus not receiving internet till i switched from the isp.telus apn to sp.telus apn.
Worth a shot i guess.

Thanks a lot for your help. Well I can't select the Telenor DK MMS like I can select the internet one. If you look at the picture there is a blue check mark at the internet one which the mms one doesn't have. If I click on the MMS one it just takes me to the settings. I hope it makes sense. Thanks.

Oh, ummm.
You could try to edit the internet one to be identical to the mms settings. If anything, you can just revert it back to the internet settings if it doesn't help.

I have tried to do that multiple times without any luck at all.
I will try to do it in a few minutes just in case, however it never seems to help. The only thing that happens is that my mobile connection drops for about 20 seconds then comes back as the usual 3G / H+.
EDIT: I played around with the APN settings again, for about 1 hour, still with no luck.
So I'm stuck here as of now. I've tried everything mentioned in this thread and nothing works.
I am not sure what is wrong. I hope any of you might have more possible solutions for my LTE problem on my SM-N9005.
Thanks.

I'm sure that your APN settings are wrong... they are wrong by default sometimes. 2G and 3G is working for you, right? If yes, than it's the problem with settings. Try to copy APN setting from someone who has a phone with working 4G ( and is the same carrier as you ).

I've been thinking the same. Perhaps I'm doing it wrong or something, because I've tried to change the settings so much. I don't have access to a 4G phone on the same carrier, neither does any of my friend use my carrier (atleast I think so) - so I will do some more internet research.
Again, thanks a lot for your help, friend!
EDIT: I've found some totally different Telenor APN settings than I've ever seen before. I'm not sure if they're old or not, but I'll definitely try now and report back.

Then try to call your carrier service, and request that they tell you all of APN settings. Try every one of them. I had exactly the same problem, they were sending me bad APN settings. They were also telling me that everything is good on their side with network, and that my phone is broken. So don't believe them, you probably know more about technology than 90% of workers there

I tried with the ones I found, and they do not work.
I took your advice and tried to call them once again, but what they told me is already what the default APN is, like in my pictures from my previous post.
I'm still lost without LTE.

I don't know if your telco does this but Telstra in Australia will send a system message that will save the correct APN settings into your phone. This can be initiated by you through their internet site, no call center staff to stuff things up... You receive the message like a normal sms but when prompted install and save...
Might be worth a shot to either ask to be sent the settings or see if they do the same on their website... You might be lucky...

It seems like they do not offer such service. However I looked at some APN setup guide on their website, and it is 100% identical to what my APN's look like.
Hmm. As stated before, 3G and HSPDA, HSPDA+ works perfectly. But no 4G/LTE. Never.
I'm sorry for double posting, but I've got some news. (I think.)
So, someone told me that I should try to dial *#*#4636#*#* and put up screenshots of it, so I figured out that I should put them here too.
So when I dailed *#*#4636#*#*, I got to this screen: http://i.imgur.com/nvEQqUF.png
I then chose phone information, and I got here: http://i.imgur.com/TTPAHw5.png - Notice that H+ is working fine.
Then I tried to select LTE only, and this happened: http://imgur.com/eNfl4xk - No signal from LTE at all.
I'm not sure if this is anything new, but I thought I'd show it here too.
Thanks.
EDIT: Okay, so I've made some further investigation and some people tell me that I might have the wrong CSC number for my country. However, I have no idea what that means really. Is it possible for me to "flash" the
correct CSC number onto my phone or something like that?
EDIT: I'm going to flash STOCK Nordic 4.4.2 ROM and solve the issue there, I've heard some talking about I should do that first. I will report back if I find my solution. Thanks.
Hello again.
I haven't really been doing anything to search further, but I am still left with no LTE, the flash of the 4.4.2 stock nordic rom did not help.
Just thought I'd give a little update.

Emergency calls only on 4g/lte

Does anyone have any suggestions? If the phone is set to 3g then everything is fine. I can set it to use 4g and that is fine too , but if I restart the phone then it shows emergency call only and I have to take the SIM out and put it back in again which fixes it and 4g works fine. If I then restart the phone again the same problem occurs. If data is set only to 3g I don't have this problem. I'm on stock 6.0 xt1572
Ok never mind , take me out the back and shoot me. It was the APN settings. Don't know how they got changed, but no excuse for me not to have checked that FIRST. Oh well, obviously not enough sleep.

Did they change on their own? Set up fine before, but without you changing them APN switched to something that didn't work? Just curious, because if so, you're not the first person to complain about that with stock on this phone.

Yes. I'm on virgin mobile in the UK, and I had the correct APN. Then it started going wrong. When I checked I fir some reason now had the EE APN. Virgin uses the EE network, and the APN seemed to be ok for 3g, but 4g killed it.
