Telus MMS / Picture Messaging Not Working (SOLVED) - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5

I wanted to post this information in case anyone else runs into the same issue. I have a SM-G900T that was from T-Mobile which was unlocked and has been running on the Telus network. Currently running Android OS 6.0.1 (Marshmellow) using the Area 51 ROM huge thanks to malbert16442 for his work!
The issue is: voice, data and text messaging was working just fine, however I could not receive or send MMS messages. I found that the problem was both the APN list within the ROM as well as Telus's own APN settings did not work.
The solution was to clear the "APN Type" field!
Here's the APN settings I am currently using:
Name: TELUS (name is irrelevant)
APN: sp.telus.com
Proxy server: Not set
Port: Not set
Username: Not set
Password: Not set
Server: Not set
MMSC: (won't let me post the MMSC value, but its the generic Telus HTTP URL)
Proxy server: 74.49.0.18
Port: 80
MCC:302
MNC: 220
Authentication type: None
APN type: Not set
APN protocol: IPv4
APN roaming protocol: IPv4
Bearer: Unspecified
Mobile virtual network operator type: GID
Mobile virtual network operator value: 5455

Will this work/apply to the Cricket Wireless Network? i have the same exact problem, only I AM able to receive MMS, but not send it.

AT&T APN/MMS Settings in ICS ROMs?

Using the gingerbread settings (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1109983) on an unlocked i9100 w/ 4G data plan and old ROM (Checkrom), i had no problems with MMS Send and Receive.
Now, i'm on ICS using Wanamlite 9.6 and cannot send/receive MMS.
I added APN (w/ "phone") for my HSPA+ Connection as always.
I edited the default APN (wap.cingular) to only be APN Type: mms
What are folks using for ICS Sammy-based ROMs using AT&T's network??
Check your MMS port in your APN. Should be 80.

definitely at 80...
in order to download or send MMS's, i have to go to the APN settings and revert back to the wap.cingular APN (default) vs. the "phone" APN (manually added to take advantage of the backhaul network).

I'm on AT&T in the U.S., using WanamLite ICS 9.5, and here are my APN settings that work properly with MMS. There are 2 APNs; one for MMS and one "Phone" APN to get the HSPA+ speeds.
APN #1
Name: MMS
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
Port: 80
Username: [email protected]
Password: CINGULAR1
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS proxy: wireless.cingular.com
MMS port: 80
MMS protocol (if applicable): WAP 2.0
MCC: (don't change this number)
MNC: (don't change this number)
APN type: mms,supl
APN protocol: IPv4
APN protocol (if applicable): IPv4
everything else: <Not set>
APN #2
Name: MEdia Net
APN: Phone
MMS protocol (if applicable): WAP 2.0
MCC: (don't change this number)
MNC: (don't change this number)
APN type: default,admin,hipri
APN protocol (if applicable): IPv4
everything else: <Not set>
edit: Once both APNs are entered, you need to select the MediaNet/Phone APN (the little radio button on the right side).

Ah. What you can do is have the "phone" APN set as internet only, then create a wap.cingular APN with the MMS server and other settings, and set it as mms only. That should work.
EDIT: in other words, what henrybravo said. Looks like we were posting at the same time.
This finally worked...
2 APNs:
Name: ATT PHONE
APN: phone
everything else default
APN Type: default
Name: ATT
APN: wap.cinguar
USER NAME: [email protected]
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS proxy: wireless.cingular.com
APN type: default,supl,mms

You may need to change APN type on the wap.cingular one to only be mms and add supl to the phone one. Then make sure the phone one is selected.
EDIT: and add password CINGULAR1 and MMS port 80 to the wap.cingular one as well.

I'm on the Samsung Infuse 4G on AT&T in the States, running the new ParanoidAndroid ICS, and initially MMS didn't work. These APNs fixed the problem perfectly for me. Sending and receiving flawlessly.

3G Internet connectivity problem

Have someone encountered any difficulties while setting up the 3G connection on your carrier? Because when I manually set my APN it dose`t do anything. I don`t know why. I`ve tried everything I know of course the carrier says that is my phone`s fault.
Here are the settings that they have emailed me.
[More ...]> [Mobile Networks]> [Name access points].
Press Options and select [New APN].
Fill:
Name: 3G Broadband
APN: broadband
Proxy: empty
Port: empty
Username: empty
Password: do not fill
Ignore the MMS server port.
MCC 226
MNC: 03 or 031
Authentication type: none
APN type: default, suppl

[Q] MMS Not working properly on my Verizon S4 unlocked for T-Mobile use

I have a Verizon S4 phone that I am trying to use with T-Mobile. MMS works but not until after I have made a phone call. I have to do this every time I restart the phone. 4g and phone calls seem to be working fine without having to do anything to get those going.
I am set to Global Network Mode and have these APN Settings:
APN: fast.t-mobile.com
Proxy: Not set
Port: Not set
Username : Not set
Password: Not set
Server: Not set
MMSC: http: / /mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS Proxy: Not set
MMS Port: 80
MMC: 310
MNC: 260
Authentication Type: Not set
APN Type: default,mms,supl
APN Protocol: IPv4/IPv6
APN roaming protocol: IPv4
Bearer: Unspecified
Mobile virtual network operator type: None
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get mms to start working properly without having to remember to make a phone call first after every restart?

Three 4G not working?

I have the Xperia Z2 on Three UK and I bought it unlocked. 3G works fine but 4G doesn't, even when LTE only is selected and my friends on Three have full 4G signal it shows no service. 4G used to work on O2. My APN settings are correct. Any ideas?
LTE on 3 UK works fine for me, are you 100% sure you have 4G signal in your area with three? Have a check with this tool. Have you checked the "Use only 3G networks" option in mobile network settings?
Also, check your APN settings with my ones what I'll post.
Name: 3
APN: three.co.uk
Proxy: Not set
Port: Not set
Username: Not set
Password: Not set
Server: Not set
MMSC: http://mmc.um.three.co.uk:10021/mmsc
MMS proxy: mms.three.co.uk
MMS port: 8799
MCC: 234
MNC: 20
Authentication type: None
APN type: default,supl,mms,a-gps
APN protocol: IPv4
APN roaming protocol: IPv4
APN enable/disable: APN enabled

MVNO type: None

It's working now I think you have to wait a few days after starting a new contract before 4g is activated.

[ANSWER / FIX] How to get MMS working on AT&T Go Phone SIM, and Signal Messanger

Hello!
I have found out a way to allow MMS messages to work on AT&T Go Phone Plans.
I have seen many posts regarding this issue, and many people seem to still have an issue even after it is marked resolved in the github threads.
Here is how i fixed it for my device :
**Device Used**
Huawei Honor 5X
Android 7.1.1 Lineage OS Nightly
KIW-L24
AT&T Prepaid Go Phone SIM
**Steps**
First, if you are using a custom ROM, or even the stock Huawei ROM, It is likely you need to configure your APN settings.
You may have APN's that downloaded automatically, or you can create a new one if none are there.
Here are the things you need to make sure are set in Settings > Data > Cellular Networks > Access Point Names:
Name: ATT Nextgenphone
APN: nxtgenphone
Proxy: none
Port: none
Username: none
Password: none
Server: none
MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS Proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication Type: none
APN: default,mms,supl,nota,hipri
APN Protocol: IPv4/IPv6
APN Roaming Protocol: IPv4/IPv6
Bearer: Unspecified
MVNO Type: None
Next we need to configure some settings for Signal:
**SMS**
SMS Enabled
"Wifi Calling" Compatibility mode: ON
**Chats and Media**
When using Mobile Data: Images, Audio, Video
When using Wifi: "Images, Audio, Video"
**Reboot your phone and attempt to download an MMS Message**
You should now be able to use your AT&T Go Phone SIM and Signal with both other Signal Users and unencrypted with Non-Signal users!
thanks
the only changed that was required on my side (straight talk on at&t) was to change the MVNO and Bearer to none/unspecified.
I managed to get this working after reverting back to stock and then realizing the difference in default values for MVNO and Bearer. Would have saved me time if only I saw your post 2 days before I found the solution myself. +1
