I am working on a friend's phone. He has an unlocked verizon S4 with a tmobile sim card. Everything works fine but he cannot send or receive pictures via mms. Trying to do so always results in download failed. Upon restart there is a notification that there is a foreign sim card detected. The apn settings that were changed seem to be right. Can anyone help?
 
Sounds right, I'm on T-Mobile myself but changing the apns should be all you have to do next. Once that's done reboot and you'll be all set. I know if you look around the Verizon forum you'll stumble across the apns.

Is your data on when trying to send or download mms? On mine I cant download or send with LTE turned off.
 
I am having the same issue as well. LTE and even H+ are working well, but I can't for the life of me get picture messages to come or go. Have you found a solution to your problem? If so please let me know...
