Sideloading woes. Found fix, breaks mms.

i tried to do it on my wife's aria and i couldn't get it to work. not sure what i did wrong.
 
Wow. What a terrible solution. I lose MMS for sideloading. Not worth it. I should of rooted..well...re-rooted, lol.
 
I would try shutting down and pulling the battery, waiting a few minutes, reinserting the battery, and restarting the phone. This will force the phone to re-register with the network. When you go to Access Point Names, is there an APN for MMS and if so, does it have a lock on it?

I'll try it later. Did find out restoring the phone fixes the mms but you loose sideloading.

I pulled the battery for ~15 minutes, and MMS still isn't working. There is an APN for MMS, and it has a lock. I also tried resetting the APNs to default, and that didn't work either.
 
Well if someone finds the solution to the mms problem I'll go back to this method. Other than that I'm going to keep struggling with ATT.
 
Back to stock I went.

We need a moderator to close this disaster of a thread. No answer in fixing your APN settings because they don't help or fix.

In other threads, some suggested to check with your AT&T rep to be sure you still have unlimited texting with picture messages enabled.

Whomever posted this thread, should remove their link, and change the OP to - oops, this will disable some features, ESPECIALLY MMS, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Since no APN settings worked, I had to run the RUU. Un-F'ing-believable.

Hard reset was a colossal pain in the ass.:mad: Took 30 min just to reload all my apps and widgets. This solution is terrible.
