Why can't I send or receive any media via a text message on HTC Windows 8 phone?

[Windows Central Question]

I can not send or receive any media via a text message on HTC Windows 8 phone.

Do I need to download a special app?

You shouldn't have to.

Make sure cellular data is enabled and active.
You may have to tweak your APN settings.
