Virgin Mobile MMS Issues Thread

[crxmax]

I had this issue. I was not able to receive mms and later could not send as well. I've since been using Go launcher FX along with their Go texting app which is downloaded separately.

so if you use gosms it takes care of the problem?

I've been reading through so many forums trying to see if anyone has found a fix to this, but everything I've tried hasn't worked... but I did find this one app called saved mms that was the pics will download to your sdcard even if the message wont open. the only bad thing I've seen so far is that you have to go to my files/sdcard/savedmms to view the pics and you can only them as contact pics or wall paper from there. but if you load the sdcard to your pc you can save and move them to the image part of the card and view them. I know it;s not the greatest fix but at least it's something

If you want to create an official discussion thread, at least put it in the correct forum?

The fact is there are no MMS issues unless you're using a 2.3 ROM so this should be in the ROMs forum, no?

The MMS issue has been solved.. if your using the new AOSPCMOD-OV-20110415.... 2.3 rom then the MMS is working.. They finally figured out how to fix it. I can nw send and receive pics yahh

First off double post fail..and second off you really should read your quoted post before posting a troll response. You have been deducted -9000 cool points for quoting and being a dick to the wrong person and a double post quote fail.

Really? Are you so dense you cant see he quoted somebody that was originally on the team to help decode the mms issue. What you quoted was not at all directed at you. So really stop trying to be a troll.

You seem to have misinterpreted that post as being a sarcastic remark directed at you.
In actuality it was neither sarcastic, nor intended for you.

hi!

 

[z0mbi3]

Hello all I'm new to android and smartphones in general. I have the optimus v and received a text from a buddy who sent me an animated gif but it doesn't play on my phone (stock rom). Is that normal or what can I do so that when I receive those types of images they will play. Thanks

 

[firefly2004]

Sorry for the trouble

I must apologize for everyone for the unforeseen misunderstanding.

I really was interested in claudiac1969 work on fixing the VM incoming issue.

Everyone please have a nice day.

No need to apologize, ssam was having a day. And instead of realizing when somebody poked fun at him and going oops, he chose to lash out and poke a laughing bear that in turn nom nomed on his arm.

I have gone from receiving encrypted MMS to nothing, even on stock rom. SMS still works. I don't know what caused this or how to fix it.

Okay first I tried using any cut and now my stock launcher FC after I try to access my home screen. Tried clearing data, didn't work. So I switched to ADW Launcher EX. The setting was different. I saw in APN Manager that it was set to "android" which was a blank APN. I corrected it to VM settings..and wait..as I'm typing this the MMS was sent and received. It just took a hell of a long time.

Now if I could just fix my stock launcher without resetting my phone.

I just switched from gingerbread to bumblebee rom and I'm having much more issues with froyo. All just for bluetooth support. Maybe I should consider going back to CM7 and forget about using my new headset until they're able to fix bluetooth.

Anyway thanks for helping me fix the APN.

Lets try and keep ALL MMS discussion to this thread.

There seems to be a lot of misinformation about MMS issues on VM using non-VM roms. So here is where we stand:

1) VM uses a non-standard MMS format. Incoming MMS comes from "9999999999" and is all garbled characters.
2) VM modifies the framework and Mms.apk to decode these messages and display them correctly.

The fact of the matter is, when using a non-VM rom such as Sprint ROMs or CM7. MMS receive is currently broke and may never be fixed.

1 is correct. The 9999999999 is because the phone downloads MMS's from Virgin's web server. All of Virgin's phones do this.

AoSPCMod now has a fix to support this.

Before I go to sleep let me just say that I have been both sending and receiving mms from my optimism v using a cryogen mod. I t was bob@homes build sep 10. I tried Joane release and now i'm having problems. It could be because I flashed a hybrid prl. I have been digging through the stock.ROM and there is some tricky stuff going on with the adn. Why doesn't some one just dissect the messaging core from the stock so it runs on ginger? I will figure this out tomorrow, or at least a work around. Nifty
