MMS Issue on VZW on DCD 2.26 Rom. Can Receive but not send?

[SSJSayajin]

Okay. So here is the one issue that I have been having with this particular Rom.

I can receive MMS messages just fine, but I cant send them. When I hit send and receive it says error synchronizing. The crazy thing is that in the progress icon for sending MMS it goes to 100%, however it never leaves my outbox and the other person never gets it.

I changed the settings under server to the correct ones:

Server settings that need to change:
Gateway: "blank"
port: 80
Server address: http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms
Sending Size limit: 350k or 400k

Any ideas? This is the only problem I have had so far! btw, like I said in my title, im on VZW. Btw, I know about the Arcsoft Sprint MMS hack, however if possible I would like to use the version on Arcsoft that came with the DCD rom as it has a lot of features the old sprint hack does not. Thx.

if you are on verizon you dont use the sprint hack, you dont need a hack at all. make sure you did not make any changes before you set up your MMS. i know several people that did some things and thought it was the arcsoft but it was something else they had changed. from scratch, only change the registry (did you make these changes?), the server and the connection. then it should work, almost guaranteed. this is in multiple posts so just search and you will find tons of them.

[SSJSayajin]

Sounds like my problem may be that I didint make those registry changes you were referring to. Other than that, the only thing I did was put the correct server in.

What registry modifications do I need to make in order for it to work on VZW?

btw, I wanted to add that I searched and found some threads on this issue and the correct settings for T-Mobile, but i diddnt see one for VZW.

Thanks a lot.

SSJSayajin,

Follow my directions here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=364043&page=30

Use the reg file and edit it......

[SSJSayajin]

Thanks a lot man your a Savior! One issue however, I am open the file and modify it with no problem, however I cant import it!

I am using Total Commander as my file explorer and PHM Regedit as my registry editor. When I click the file a "do you want to import this" does not come up. It actually opens up PHM Regedit, however the option to import the file is greyed out.

Any Ideas? This is my last issue! Thx.

*edit*

So I found out the problem, PHM does not allow you to import reg entries. So how do I open up the default reg editor so I can import this? Thx guys.

I have a problem with the MMS registery hack you posted, I downloaded it, removed .txt, edited my phone number, transfered it to my phone but in file explorer or total commander when I click on it, it gives me a error " there is no application associated with "Verizon MMS settings for Arcosoft 4281" run the application first, then open this file from within the application" I am running DCD 2.2.6 rom,any help? thanks

[SSJSayajin]

Well I figured out one issue, as far as importing the reg file, use DotFred's Task Manager. It has a built in reg editor that works perfectly.

But my stuff still doesnt work properly! I imported the reg entry and I know it worked becuase it added more items to my phone, however I have the same problem of being unable to send mms. Does the exact same thing as before with the error of unable to syncronize.

Any ideas? Thx.

i am testing this now. did a hard reset, imported it and i'll test it out.

[zoomy942]

that didnt work. I am juust going back to 3.2 :mad:

i could send but not recieve

1st - Are you guys on Verizon?
2nd - Did you read the entire thread that I linked too.... It has other items you will need to do..... That thread resolved most if not all issues relating to using MMS with Verizon. Now when I put a new ROM on my phone, I have added the registry entries in MY file to the OEMizer and that adds it automatically to the ROM, so I get MMS right away with my new ROM..... Like I am on DCD's 2.3.1 right now, and I have MMS just fine.... Please go back and read that other thread entirely.... It will help guys.....

that thread is lots of pages long.. is there a way we can get a summary?

[azclown]

Not to be an ass, but thats how you learn... read... I've been lurking around here for about 1 3/4 months, and really have done nothing but read as much as possible.... so really it's up to you to summarize it for yourself. I'd have to re-read it again to be able to summarize it, and I don't have the time to do that research again..... sorry....

lol, youre not being an ass. thats what i would say.

what i meant was, there's more to it than just importing the reg file right?

[zoomy942]

so, i imported the reg file and it had a random character in the gateway field, so i removed that and i can send fine, but i still cant receive. I'll look through that thread more and see whats going on here.

[azclown]

Are you using Arcsoft MMs ver 4.2.81 right?

EDIT: When you download my reg file, it comes with a .txt extension. When you save it, does it's icon change? If not, then it's not being saved as a registry file....

Yea, its version 4.2.81. Also Yes, the registry icon changes once you remove the .txt extension. The file imports just fine, it just doesnt resolve the issue. Also yes, its on Verizon.

While I realize that reading that 60+ page thread will help, unfortunately I would rather not spend 2 hours reading the thread for a solution that someone may know off hand. Now of course if thats not possible I will have to read it, but I was hoping someone would know of a fix?

What else needs to be done in order to be able to send and receive MMS messages in addition to the registry hack that was pointed out?

-Sayajin

[zoomy942]

yeah, its verizon and i have that version of arcsoft. whast odd is that it was working fine on 2.2.6, on 2.3.1 it isnt. i even used oemizer to setup the registry entries and still... i can send but not recieve.

i am completely stumped

[SSJSayajin]

Okay, So I broke down and read about 30 pages of the thread to look for MMS issues. This is what I have found in a summary.

1. Install the Reg file in this post.
2. Delete every other server listed under MMS servers
3. Delete the random character that shows up under Gateway in server settings.
4. Go into the registry and where it says Default as the value for anything, change it to Verizon Wireless.
5. Soft Reset

Thats about everything I got from the post after reading 30+ pages. Still have the same issue....

FWIW - This is about the only thing I can think of that might help.... Go into your registry and delete the config key under ArcSoft MMS UA.... Then import this reg file, its straight from my 6800 this morning, and I can confirm it works just fine for me..... I zipped it so there is no need to change the extension..... I send and received MMS from myself and from a friends phone he let me use.... I just tested this out.... I also tested my config by changing the sending size and when I upped it, I couldn't send anymore..... So trying to send larger files may mess up your ability to send MMS..... Hopefully this helps..... If the import doesn't solve the issue, then hard reset, imput the reg and test again......

I'm trying to help as much as I can.....:confused:

[SSJSayajin]

Thx a lot for the assistance man!

One issue, when trying to import the new file it says "error the selected file is not a registry script unable to import" any ideas on that one?

Thx.

[azclown]

Really???? I just clicked on the file I posted earlier today and saved it to my desktop. I double click on it, and it then asks me to add it too the reg or not?

The very least you can do is this.... Can you open the file in Notepad?

If yes, then use a registry editor on your phone. Are you comfortable doing this? If not, I really can't help more. If yes, then open the reg file and manually check each setting from my file against yours, change what is different to match my settings.... If this don't work let me know again and I can send you an OEM of my reg settings.... <---- you'll have to download the DCD kitchen for this to work..... So let me know if the above info doesn't help then we can move to using the kitchen.......

[zoomy942]

Let's try an OEM of it. i have been trying a million differnt things and getting it to import is not showing me any love.

[zoomy942]

so, i tried what you added and i can send out (which i could do before) and i can recieve if i sent them to myself, but when someone else sends them, i dont get anything.

[azclown]

Hey bud, yes my MMS still works in and out.... I'll ZIP up the OEM for the MMS 4.2.81 and an OEM that has the settings you need to have it work. Gimme a few minutes..... As I'm at work right now so I gotta actually do some work today..... ;)

excellent my friend. i'm at work too :o

[azclown]

OK, here they are.... Put both of these in the new kitchen, EDIT the .rgu in the MMS-REG folder. Add your telephone number just like before..... Then make your ROM..... Make sure you click on BOTH MMS-REG and Optional_MMS_4281_10-29-07 in BuildOS..... This should fix you up.....

D

PS - Send me a PM with your email in it, I can't upload the .zip, it keeps failing for some reason..... It's 2.4 Megs.....

[azclown]

It's on the way.....

[zoomy942]

i await with bated breath :)

nothing yet.

maybe rename it to a .123 file to be sure it doesnt get stripped?

[zoomy942]

azclown.. i havent seen anything yet buddy

[azclown]

Well, it got stripped..... I went to lunch and just got back..... Sorry, I'm emailing it now with a .txt extension.....

Email has gone out....

[zoomy942]

Well, it got stripped..... I went to lunch and just got back..... Sorry, I'm emailing it now with a .txt extension.....



lol. thats what i guessed:) email systems is my expertise

[zoomy942]

[azclown]

Well??? Hope this last ditch effort works..... Don't forget the edit in your phone number....

[azclown]

Your killin me Zoomy..... did it work :eek:

[zoomy942]

you are my hero!!!

it works now!!

it must be some setting none of us notice because it required the entire package from you to work.

you are the shizzle, my friend. thank you so much

[azclown]

I only wish I could post the zip file in a message here, so others could use it..... Very glad to have helped.....:D

[zoomy942]

maybe upload it to rapidshare or something like that and link it?

also, we should start a thread out in the main section titled something like "Verizon MMS Solved" so others can see this too.

[azclown]

I'll do that right away..... Glad you up and running... wow, that was a rough issue to fix.... :)

[SSJSayajin]

I am anxiously awaiting the OEM so I can get mine up and running as well! Thanks for the help!

Check your DNS settings. As soon as I changed mine it would no longer send any MMS messages. Changed it back and sure enough they started sending.
