Unable to download group MMS
I have a Pixel XL that was originally Project Fi. I switched to TMobile two weeks ago and my group MMS are not downloading, either on wifi or mobile. Sometimes they come through, other times I have to go to the individual messages and download them. 90% of the time, they fail to download. I've done all the troubleshooting, including resetting the network and creating the new APN from this forum. My husband has the same phone and same network and is not having this issue. The message app also crashes after a few tries at downloading. Google support was not helpful, telling me I can't use wifi for MMS, which is incorrect because I've always used wifi. Plus, it's also happening on data. Below is the APN I have done according to TMobile support doc. Although, my phone does not have a "MMS protocol" option. This helped my phone to be able to receive them more frequently, although, I still have to download them. Android APN settings Open the Access Point Names or APNs menu. In Settings, look under Wireless & Networks or tap the Connections tab. Touch Mobile network. You may need to touch More settings, More..., or More networks first. Touch Access Point Names. Touch the T-Mobile APN if one is available. If not, press the Menu key and touch new APN. Verify and update the following settings for the Data APN. Name: T-Mobile APN: Fast.t-mobile.com (for LTE devices) or epc.tmobile.com (for non-LTE devices) 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: <Not set> MMS protocol: WAP 2.0 MCC: 310 MNC: 260 Authentication Type: <Not set> APN Type: default,supl,mms OR Internet+MMS Default Android provides a text field to enter: default,supl,mms. Samsung provides an Internet+MMS radio button to select. APN Protocol: IPv4/IPv6 APN roaming protocol: IPv4 Turn APN on/off: Grayed out unless there are multiple APNs Bearer: Unspecified Press the Menu key. Touch Save. Delete any other APNs that appear in the list. The FOTA APN can remain if available. Touch the APN that needs to be removed. Press the Menu key. Touch Delete APN. Verify there is a circle next to the remaining APN. Perform a soft reset. Hold down the power button until the device turns off and restarts. Test the data connection and/or MMS by accessing the Web or sending a picture message. Complete additional troubleshooting if the APN settings are correct, but customers still experience issues.Solved18KViews0likes19Comments
