MMS issues with Lumia 950 on T-Mobile - Help?

[Werentuckl]

This is odd. I'm guessing you followed through on the dev mode changes, and all of those, pre requisite things. Which brings me to the next thing on the list, the app dependencies. Since I dont want you to get into that, you'll need a PC for it, you should download the version on Dan's tutorial. Its older, but it has the benefit of not needing the dependencies. Which means, you do it all over the phone only, instead of needing a cable. Or a PC.

I got it but I'm lost on what to look at here.

YESSSSS!!!! FINALLYYYYY LIBRAAAA ^_^

Also, if in doubt, always re read the registries to see/make sure that they have written and are changed to the new values you have perscribed.

I'll explain the pathways to you. So HKLM basically means HKey_Local_Machine.

So you go in there, then Software, Microsoft, Messaging, all the way to Legacy, and then check up all the matching values in there one by one, likewise for the rest. I hope that was explain-ful enough. If not, just tell me and I'll give it another shot.

That helped a lot, thank you. For some reason, it keeps crashing (or exiting out?) so I never get to see the values under Messaging after I tap it.

 

[libra89]

I keep getting here and then it keeps exiting out.

Yeah, it loves to be finicky and crash out on you at all the inopportune times. Happens with me all the time too. But I managed to get into mine all the way, and verify registry types. So instead of the browser, go to the editor instead. Pick HKLM in the registry hive. And type in the registry Key paths. That would be the pathway after HKLM\BlaBlaBla. So you put in \BlaBlaBla\BluBluBlu\WhoopidyDoop without the HKLM. Basically the entire pathway in the other post except for the HKLM in the registry pathway.

You put in the Value Names respectively, which would be the WAPPushTechnology, et cetera et cetera. UAProf, whatever else you have it. And then press Read to see first what it already is, and match or tele the values with what I've given. The registry type is String for all the values with text in them, and integer for everrything that says 0, or is a number.

Whew, sorry that took a while. Had to reconfirm everything on my own devices before I pushed you down that road.

[Werentuckl]

Sometimes, a reboot with a cleared out cache helps with the browsing and avoiding the crashouts, but who cares. When you dont absolutely have to, why do it. Just go with the registry editor part of it instead, accomplishes the same end. Less hassle. ^_^

The values that dont telly, you just type them in at the bottom, and press write. And viola! Magico! :O :O :O :3

I still dont know what Emoji52 is, or the mystery to your heels for that matter. That is. So annoying. Wont go away from my head now.

[libra89]

Haha, you are funny. the emoji was :straight:

Will try that soon, really appreciate your patience with me for all of this. Had to go get lunch.

 

[Werentuckl]

Oh darn! It was the pokerface emoji. I hate it when women pull that on me. Is not like I can read them anyways. *Sadness*

And its okay, take your time. I was just hovering around with the periodic refresh because I'm super curious to see/make it work now. But yes, lunch, cookie monsterrr!!!!! Gobble gobble gobble. MAJOR NOMSSS!!!! Okay, now I'm just getting high on the food I just had. But yes, take your time. Do your lunch at leisure. I'm prolly gonna be here anyways by the time youre done doing the doing doned done. So your dubious tech support isnt going anywhere. Yet.

Oh Sh*t. I just realised. Did we just spam two whole pages of posts sitting here just like that? O_O :O OHWHUT. ? :O :O :O

[libra89]

Lol xd I have a poor poker face offline. Anyway I think we did for this thread. Glad that you had some food!

I am confused. Originally, it asked me if I wanted to create the value. I tapped no and now it's a trash can instead of a plus. When I tap read, it shows a message.

Interesting. So turns out it cant read values that you havent edited out. But can read the ones you write in yourself. I just gave it a go and thats what came up for me anyways. So how about we try writing to these values instead, that I posted, instead straight. No reading involved. You can read ater you've written to it, just to make sure that the changes are taking place.

On that note, they only give me rabbit food here. I must break out soon. In pursuit of real food. Before I turn into a WereRabbit instead. :/ Also. Poker face.

[libra89]

Okay, will do. So if I'm understanding you correctly, the Registry Value Data is 0, or do I just leave it blank? It didn't suggest anything for me. Same for the Value Name.

Ahh that's a bummer about the food, I hope you can get some actual food soon.

Registry Type: String
Registry Key Path: SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Messaging\PerSimSettings\Legacy
Registry Value Name: ADDR
Registry Value Data: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
Write. Then you can just read it to make sure poker face.

And the Registry Type is String. For everything except the Registry Value Data units that say 0. You set those to integer.

And then you write. So in order. The whole thing becomes like so:

Registry Type: String
Registry Key Path: SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Messaging\PerSimSettings\Legacy
Registry Value Name: ADDR
Registry Value Data: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
Write. Then read.

Registry Type: Integer
Registry Key Path: SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Messaging\PerSimSettings\Legacy
Registry Value Name: WapPushTechnology
Registry Value Data: 0
Write. Then read.

Registry Type: String
Registry Key Path: SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Messaging\PerSimSettings\Legacy
Registry Value Name: UAProf
Registry Value Data:
Write. Then read.

Registry Type: String
Registry Key Path: SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Messaging\PerSimSettings\Legacy
Registry Value Name: IMsiAuthenticationToken

Registry Type: String

Whew. That last post killed me. And I have food aplenty, just not much of an eater when I have other distractions. I suppose.

This better work out now. Or I'm gonna have to hulk smash something. Or learn to meow. Or something. You know. At your phone.

It would be a troll of epic proportions on the both of us if it still refuses to send a single MMS though!

-- W

 

[libra89]

Wow, you are a trooper to provide all of that, thank you so much. I have put in all of that in and did the write and then read thing as well. For the 2 entries before the last one, I messed up the Key Path, but then I put in the correct ones for those as different entries.

Will try to send an MMS. Aww okay, I see, haha.

 

[Werentuckl]

Its okay, doesnt really matter. Just means you have two bogus registry entries in there somewhere. If it even got to writing that down that is - which I have my doubts about. Writing in new registries from scratch is a hit and miss, and does not work more often than does. Try sending in an MMS and see if it works. And tell us the dreaded troll of an answer Libra. ^_^

Another last ditch effort before throwing the phone at someone's face you hate would be to try a restart afterwards, of all these changes, if it dont work otherwise.

And well, sometimes you just have to troop the troop. Better I spend an extra five and get it all down right pat instead of you banging around in frustration because its all so vague silly.

-- W

 

[libra89]

Yep, it hates me. Still doesn't work, even after a soft reset. :unhappysweat:

This particular phone must be broken, never had this issue with any Windows Phone ever, lol. Even when I had the dual sim BLU Win HD LTE, all it took was the preferred settings for it to work. Regardless, thank you for a lot of your energy and time. I think I just might buy an ATT 950 like you suggested earlier, unlock it and go about my way, because this is super annoying.

I wish that there was a way I can repay you for your efforts here.

 

[Werentuckl]

Woahhhh.... I knew it. Must be when I jinxed you. Throw this back at the face of those stupid B&H people.

And buy direct off of MS, or if you want to be all adventurous risque, from the AT&T folks. Damn. Sorry I made you put all that time into this thing when it didnt even want to blink back at us Libra. :/

Le sigh.

--W

 

[libra89]

I don't think you jinxed me, this phone has to be a lemon. Haha, I really like their company, but I am super disappointed with this.

I think I will suck it up and do just that today. It's okay, you didn't know this would be the result. I love B&H fast shipping but not a fan of this.
