MMS Straight Talk Issue. CORRECT APN SETTINGS

Thanks so much! I just switched from using an original straight talk phone to a LG G2 running Android version 4.4.2 that was formerly a Verizon phone. Got the SIM and followed their instructions to no avail and struggled for a week until I stumbled onto your post. I changed my APN to your suggested settings and after reboot I started getting all the media messages that until now just expired. So thank you very much.
I also just got the lg g2. STs instructions do not mention that you have to add ,mms on the APN type. At least thats what finally worked for me after about 3 hours.
I have had the same issue on an AT&T LG E980 Optimus G Pro POS phone. I have spent the last 4 hours running though every single combination of APN settings and NOTHING has worked. I truly do think AT&T has configured this phone to be defective if you leave their network with it as they have a block on altering APN Type, which cannot be selected.
Phone is going in the trash, it's worthless and I shouldn't have to root or whatever its called, Straight Talk's directions on creating an APN are simple enough but just flat out do not work when trying to send a photo. Text works with Hangouts, and calls go through only when I restart the phone and immediately dial out after rebooting, almost as if the phone is too tired to work and needs a break.
If anyone has a new formula that works please post. If I have to spend this much time on an electronic headache like this, its not worth my effort.
21st century I should not have to be a computer programmer to use a cell phone, if that's the new expectation **** smartphones I don't need it. I don't have time for it.

Thanks so much !! Now my phone finley work i cant thank you enough i have tried everything and your post was the only thing that worked !!!!!
Wow! I cant thank you enough my phone finley works after a month of trying everything ...You rock ...
So I have dealt with this issue for months now, I had a nexus 4 using st and never had any issues. I like the nexus 5 and bought it, I can't send or receive pic messages. I have spoke with st a dozen times and even google, and lg. I ended up sending my phone back to lg. No issue with the phone. Got a new Sim card and spoke with st again to still have the issue. I have the APN as follows.
Let me know how to fix it. I've tried everything but the thing to solve this issue . Thanks

This is so frustrating, all of this because of some simple script.

You have to keep calling them and tell them to "reset you on the browser" or "provision your sim for LTE".
Update. I entered all of the APN info and now I can send pic mess but I still can't receive them. What part of the code is for receiving the pic mess?

Make sure your mobile data is enabled.. pic messages (MMS) requires a data connection to work.. won't work over just WiFi..

Double swipe down from the top of your screen, yes it's in phone settings, will be just under the WiFi icon.. tap on the data icon, mine says at&t since I'm using their at&t sim, then at the top says cellular data, tap the toggle on the tight should turn blue and move to the right, now your data is enabled..

What messaging app are you using? Is it a third party app? I've heard on some of them you have to adjust the APN settings in the messenger app also.. I use the stock google messenger app, so I didn't have to change any of those, so I have no knowledge on how to help on that one..
