*SOLVED* Confirmed - Service signal Dropwhen sending mms from VZW to AT&T iPhone

---

**Solved**

Hey all -

Ok, so, i remembered that I installed CHOMP on my android device the night that all of this started happening for me.

I have since uninstalled CHOMP and now use STOCK and HANDCENT. Using my own iPhone 4 on AT&T, I am NO LONGER able to reproduce this crashing behavior using HANDCENT or STOCK - regardless of how large in size the MMS is. I have read on other forums that CHOMP was used as well.

There is just one instance of a person crashing a bunch of phones in a store as a test - and I wanted to see if it was CHOMP that he used.

To add to this solution, can anyone confirm that they used CHOMP (or CHOMP was used) when you noticed this issue?

Thanks a ton in advance, and hopefully this can be laid to rest.

Matt!



Hey all,

**Update** I just confirmed this. I fixed the signal drop loop from my original post be restoring my iPhone to an earlier backup. Problem 100% solved. AS SOON as I sent an MMS from my VZW HTC Rezound, (and I even limited it to less than 600kb), by iphone went into the signal drop loop. 30 seconds with service, 30 seconds without service, and this repeats endlessly.

I don't understand how there can't be more talk about this. I called AT&T twice and talked to Tier 2 tech support - they were clueless, so i at least filled them in.

Here's my original post.

This is crazy! I have an ATT iPhone suffering from it as well as a friend. Both phones have had MMS sent from my VZW Rezound. It seems that CDMA Verizon MMS to GSM AT&T iPhone will instantly crash the iPhone....

Here are the details:

Anyone have any further info?

Thanks,

i have friends with AT&T iphones who I have MMS'd, including coworkers wanting pics of the schedule, as most of my coworkers are iphone fanatics and have AT&T iphones, and noone has complained about weird issues after I send them MMS...

This happened to me yesterday and didn't think of it much just restarted my phone. Today though it happened again and right now i realized i was chatting with a buddy of mine on AT&T. I was wondering why no one texted back till i saw that every text was on wait.

My friend doesn't have iPhone but just a regular old school razr flip phone and he doesn't get ANY pictures I send him, only a blank text.

I noticed when I send a pic or MMS to an iPhone I have to use the stock messaging service to get it to go through. It will say it has been sent through ChompSMS but it is never received by any iPhone so far.

Are you using the stock messaging app or a third party?

I noticed that too.

There must be 30 people I work with who have iphones & when I was using Handcent (which I must have used in 6 phones previous to the rezound) it caused all kinds of MMS issues with iphone users. This is a serious problem for me as we use MMS all the time where I work.

Now, with the Rezound & a red theme I really like the stock messaging app so I never installed Handcent and now my MMS go through just fine to everybody.
