Straight Talk with android / no mms

[tylerhudson01]

I have ST and use a Straight Talk Huawei H881C Ascend Plus Android Prepaid Smartphone. I can send picture messages but cannot receive them. I use verizon towers around here. I have read the forums and think maybe my APN is not correct but am unable to find out what it should be. Can anyone help or give me any advice? Thanks , Tyler

I have an at&t unlocked Android, using Straight Talk and the ONLY!!! way I can get internet and picture messages are the following settings, (((which took me HOURS to find on this forum, after trying about 10 other suggestions and being told by "The Phone Doctor" a local company where I purchased my phone a year ago, that they can NEVER get at&t to work with ST))) p.s. these are apparently the NEW and ONLY APN settings from Straight Talk that will work for me:

Name: STRAIGHT_TALK
APN: tfdata
MMSC: http://mms-tf.net
MMS Proxy: mms3.tracfone.com
MMS Port: 80
MCC: 310 (default)
MNC: 410 (default)

i am having the same issue. I used to receive MMS fine then i started getting "all towers are busy" messages when i make calls and same time, quit being able to receive MMS. Verizon doesn't use Sims so don't give us Sim card fixes. ive called st many times an they had me do the stupid people stuff and factory reset my phone, which did nothing but give me a blank phone that still can't receive MMS. it has had issues since I got it, but not so consistent. haven't received an MMS in over a week. i CAN receive them from myself. just no one else. the expiration date on them is always the time it was received, idk if that makes a difference. this issue is super annoying and st cs sucks. help!
