Hello,
I'm using an AT&T Galaxy S5, Chompsms as my sms app and I still don't get all of my MMS messages. I came from an iPhone 5 if that matters, haven't really had any problems after I got out of iMessages but every once in awhile I don't get some pictures that people send me. For instance today my wife sent me a picture of my daughter and I never got it. Are there certain settings you can do to make this work or is it AT&T's fault?

Removed your first screenshot because it showed the persons phone number in the text message.

Just to let you know.

Do you think it's the app?

Well, I don't got a Samsung Galaxy S5 but after five android devices I can recommend Evolve and Textra SMS apps regarding multiple text addressee and photo sending. Don't forget to disable stock SMS feature and any other SMS app before you try out Evolve or Textra. Another good one is 8SMS Sock Messaging KitKat. Good luck.

Turn on Roaming auto-retrieve. If your in the US, it just means that your phone locked onto a different carrier's tower (T-Mobile in your case). You aren't roaming or going to get charged.

If you got Textra, when installing, it automatically disable the stock text app.
 
I installed Textra and turned on data roaming so I'll see how that works out. This app is kinda cool BTW.

How did it go? I have the same problem. Also an ex-iphone user but never had a problem with the Galaxy Note I initially had.
 
Had the same problem, ATT did a diagnostic on our phone and then replaced it, take it to ATT
