Prior to installing the ViperOne ROM I had an issue with missing occasional group MMS after updating the stock phone to 4.4.4 when the update came out in late January. I rooted the phone and flashed ViperOne without any difficulties (now running 4.3) hoping that in addition to getting the advantages of running a custom ROM I would no longer miss out on texts but this is still going on. I did a factory reset and full wipe prior to flashing the ROM. I've tried using different SMS apps still with the same issue. Basically some group MMS's go through while others don't and the only way to know is by checking the messages.att.net website where texts are backed up (i tried disabling this and it didn't work either). People have had a similar issue here -https://forums.att.com/t5/Android/HTC-One-M8-MMS-problem-since-4-4-4/td-p/4193100 - but since I'm now running a 5.0 ROM I thought I'd reach out here to see if anyone with an AT&T HTC One M8 has had issues missing group MMS.
Thanks
Having the same problem with my wife's stock phone. An additional problem she is also having: when she is on wifi, mms messages she does get don't download but do over the att data connection. Betting that's a seperate issue, but wanted to bring it up?
I'm having the same issue...getting annoying.

I am having the same issue. I am thinking of trying installing the 4.4.3 firmware on the phone again and testing it out, see if there are any issues. I love having lollipop, but missing group texts is more important to me than some cosmetic features. I will let you guys know how it goes!

In the case of your wife, MMS won't download over WiFi. It only downloads over Cellular Data so you have to use data to get MMS messages. Try going into the messages app settings and turn on the MMS auto-retrieve. Should fix the problem.

I've been having the same problem on my phone. I get regular texts fine, but sometimes i can't send or receive pictures via MMS. I've been trying to research this, and on some other forums, people think it has to do with the 4.4.4 software having issues that ATT won't acknowledge. It also looks like the problem has carried over to the new software version, according to some of the comments. One person even said it might have something to do with sending/receiving texts from people with iphones that have imessage turned on. This is all anecdotal, of course, I have seen no official answer from HTC/ATT/Google.
I'm thinking I'll install CM11 this weekend and see if that solves the problem.

So this is an issue that I have seen many a variation on, but none quite like this. The issue is that some texts from folks I receive fine others are sporadic. It seems to vary from day to day and person to person. I can receive a text from someone and respond then not get any other from that person after. Others I gave been able to receive from in the past but do not receive now. I am running GSB 2.2 with the latest vzw radio for the Eris (2.42.01.04.27), using GO sms with the stock messenger installed, but notifications turned off. I've tried a reflash, Full wipe and Flash, *22899, APN backup from a 2.1 rom, tried the spn provided by roirraW "edor" ehT no change. This has happened with chomp also. I am at a loss. It's a shame, because work shed has made a awesome phone out of my little Eris. Any thoughts?
Missing Texts solved
After some experimentation on my part I have discovered that as GoSMS states in its help section, you can remove the stock application but is not recommended. That'll teach me to read more closely before removing apps . So a heads up for all you GOSMS users out there. leave the stock app installed. I have had zero issues with texts since I updated to a newer version of GSB, which reinstalled the stock sms app.
After installing the new beastmode kernel unsuccessfully and installing the crpalmers kernel that I was successfully running, my phone stopped being able to receive or make calls or send texts. However, I was still able to receive texts. I was running superhatka 2.1 and tried installing my backup to fix the issue, but the issue is still here. I tried installing the new superhatka 3.0.3. But the issue is still here, no calls or texts and texts report error code : 65535. FYI my data still works as well as the voicemail notification but I can't make the call to check the voicemail. I've searched the internet's for help and only found a couple similar problems, but no solutions. Tomorrow I'll take it into Verizon for a new SIM to try that (seems like the Verizon peopel are always more clueless than I am though haha). Anyone else having this problem? Or anyone have ideas for a fix?
There are similar issues like this all over this forum that I have read. One solution one person did was install the stock kernel and install a clean rom and his calling was fixed. Never heard the texting issue but I would try this before a replacement sim. Flash a clean rom and the stock kernel and see how it goes. Be sure to report back to us to see if this works out for you.

Thanks for a quick response! I did see a few similar issues, but none that were receiving texts I think. Anyways, I just clean flashed the new superhatka 3.0.3 which now has the ota kernel which is the new stock I think so I think I have basically flashed stock kernels since I can't flash the pre ota stock kernel without reverting to an older baseband right?
Also the dialer isn't force closing. I just tried to make a call and it Said something like "call origination failed due to immediate signal loss." I looked this up and saw found that people with this issue had towers down in their area, but I have been using another phone without issue so I don't believe that's the case. My mobile internet works fine unlike others with the same signal loss message
Fixed
Took it into verizon and it took them about a half hour and 2nd level tech support to refresh all service connections with the phone on their end. Problem fixed now
Yeah that happened to me when I ran a samsung continuum as my daily phone I flashed a new leak and my data was gone they had to get me to level 2 support and refresh to get my data. I'm glad that was all they had to do and you didn't need to get a replacement. Glad to hear your back up!

I'm currently flashed with the latest nightly of CyanogenMod 10.2 which is 9/5. I'm not really sure when it started but a bit after I installed 10.1 I was unable to send text messages out. However was able to receive messages just fine. I've searched around quite a bit, and checked the same issues on various forums, none which have a good solution to what the problem is. Wondering if there is any insight as to what the probably cause to this would be? I never really had an issue with CM10.1 when I used it on my Samsung Captivate. Now that I switched over to the i777 I don't really see why I'm having this issue.

Could be a few things:
APN issue. Check that what you have under the 3 MMS fields match those of your carrier.
Are you using the stock messaging app or a 3rd party one? If it's the latter that's likely the culprit as well.
Or it could simply be a nightly problem, which is why it's generally best to use RC's. Nightlies rarely offer real upgrades, and often cause problems due to constant dirty flashing/carryovers from previous builds.

I'm using the stock messaging app. My APN is correct. I'll try the RC version.
EDIT: Nope the RC didn't change anything, I've looked around and I havn't been able to figure out anything. I'm able to send MMS messages, just not SMS. If I switch the chip back into my captivate it can send texts just fine.

Bump?
Hey guys,
I've had this phone for a while but i have been dealing with this increasingly annoying issue. I can't send or receive MMS messages for some reason. If i try to attach a picture, it does not send and when attempting to download a sent message, it fails and attempting to retry does not seem to even initiate another attempt.
Has anyone else faced this issue?
Super late to this thread but I am currently having the same issue, did you ever find a solution?
I think there is a problem with custom roms on using MMS /data. I use Straight Talk on At&T network and with right APN settings, I only get mms and no data for gapps like play store and maps. So if you want to keep using custom ROM switch to using 3G mode (it works for me, i get data +mms, everything works great except slower internet speeds). Or return to Stock ROM. I am using Stock ROM since last week (B331) and I am getting data+mms on 4G with the same straight talk apn settings.
IF not using custom ROM - then check your APN settings from network provider

I just made a post about how i fixed mine on the AT&T GoPhone plan.
Not sure what plan you are using but maybe this will help.
Here is a link to my post
Issue with apn settings
Unlocked Note 8 on Verizon, I'm getting the same issue as S8/S8+ users. No comment from Samsung as of right now on the situation, just wondering if anyone else is having the same issue as me? I haven't noticed any sort of pattern, just missing many texts from both single and group chats, and it doesn't matter the app. I just noticed today I am missing calls as well. The S8/S8+ issue is on all carriers and unlocked. Anyone else not getting their calls or texts? What model and carrier are you on?
I've had random voice mail, but one time I know of.

I'm having the same issue. I have a Note 8, unlocked, running on T-Mobile using the default Samsung messages app. I keep missing occasional texts from my wife's iPhone 7 and have now even missed a phone call or two. It seems to be random as some messages go through just fine while others don't. When testing at home, I can't get the problem to replicate itself. The iMessage issue doesn't apply to me as I haven't been on an iPhone in over a year and have received texts just fine until now. I had wifi calling turned on, but have since turned it off and that hasn't helped. I was using Google Messenger for a short time, but the missing texts are while I'm on the Samsung Messenger. I've changed the default text app off for Samsung Text and back on to see if that helps as some people have mentioned it. So far (last couple days), it seems to be okay, but since it's a random thing, it will take time to know for sure if it's fixed. Really frustrating as text is such a basic phone component and honestly I use it far more than making phone calls so Samsung needs to fix this ASAP.
I had issues when I had Advanced messaging turned on, it caused all kinds of issues for me. Mms wouldnt load, messages took forever to send. I turned it off issues gone. Not saying that is whats causing your issues but try turning it off in message settings see if that helps.

Well heres the thing. I am on At&t 950U. I flashed the unlocked firmware 950U1 and Adavanced Messaging is no longer in the message settings. But yeah go to messages/settings/ more settings(I think) you should see the option for Advanced messages, or its under the Text tab or MMS tab

Also the option for others to see when your typing a text...I turned that off also until I flashed the 950U1 firmware.

Yes I'm having this problem, missing texts mostly from my gf. I was Google messenger now back on default Samsung messenger seeing if that helps. I'll contact Samsung today. I went through my carrier troubleshooting (cricket) and I don't think it's them. Never had a problem on my s7 edge. Fyi have an unlocked note 8 from best buy
I tried switching from global to LTE/CDMA and I just found out I had a missed text from my boss this morning. This is not cool. Please can anyone help?
Are your messaging apps battery optimized/dozed? I would double check that.
