My Android messaging app doesn't let me send pictures or group messages. Why?

[AC Question]

My Android messaging app doesn't let me send pictures or group messages.

Every so often, my Android Messaging app doesn't let me send group texts or pictures. It says "Can't send send messages right now. Too many unset multimedia messages". I've tried clearing my cache and reinstalling the app but to no avail.

I have a Moto X (First Generation) through Republic Wireless. I've had this problem with my phone for a whole year now, and no amount of calling customer service has helped solve the problem.

Can someone find a solution to my problem?

Welcome to the forums!

In searching, I found many people with this issue and the answer was always the same.. There was an unsent MMS somewhere. I just copied one of the answers of one that fixed their issue:

"This has happened to me at least once before. Very annoying. In my case I had to check every thread, and scroll up to look for failed mms messages in the thread(red !). Once one fails, apparently nothing else except regular txt will go through until the offender is deleted for some reason."

Looks like you will have to scroll through all your convos and find the one MMS that hasn't sent. The quickest way of course, is just to delete all message conversations, but you might not want to do that. If you want to keep what you have, you will have to scroll through all convos until you find the one unsent.
