Root [ZIP] MMS FIX FOR CM/AOSP/AOKP (THANKS wolfu)

[mrawesome22]

Great work guys and thank you.

Goodbye sense roms forever. :thumbup: :beer:

 

[mrawesome22]

AOKP has been good on battery for me. So I'm pretty happy with it. Don't think I'll flash pacman for a bit honestly.

This is perhaps the greatest thing about aokp. The battery life is simply amazing once all that sense crap is gone.

 

[droiddekka]

Cant wait to try this!!!

Great job dude you are an evil genius!!!!1

Do the new settings stick through updates and rom changes or do they have to be redone each time?

 

[johnvansavage]

so can we get a list of roms that do and don't work? looks like i can't get it to work with gangnam style

Gangnam style has a lot of apns presets, I wish I'd known that sooner before when I knew what I was doing. Anyway try the settings on an apn which has the password already put in as "*"

None of them have a password already put in as *

Yeah it'd be nice to get this working on gangnam style. Love the added options in the settings of the miss apk on that ROM.

Seems to be working on pacman. Sent picture to fiance, says it went through, but seeing as she's at work, it'll be a while before I hear back.
Large sms stay as sending forever though it seems.
Also, side note, pacman is randomly rebooting on me when running Pandora. Going to see if flashing mac kernel helps.

This is working for me in Dastins latest CM10.

1. Download and place this file in /etc
   
2. Set permissions to rw-r--r--
   
3. That is a build.prop that has all the settings from the post in the OP (No need to go in and change the mmsc as I have done it for you). After installing. Go to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases and delete the following:
   • mmssms.db
   • mmssms.bd-journal
   • telephony.db
   • telephony.db-journal
4. Reboot your phone.
   
5. Open Voice Dialer
   
6. Say "open apn's"
   
7. Select it and and press the dot on the right hand side where it says Sprint.
   
8. Reboot again
   
9. Profit

With that you need to enable split SMS for 160 characters. As far as rebooting...try different kernel settings as well

This fix is working for me on HTC Evo 3D using D.I.R.T 3.5.2 JB rom. The only issue that I've noticed is that when receiving an MMS it comes in as a group message between me and the sender instead of just coming through in the original conversation thread. Sending doesn't do this, it stays in the original thread of conversation. Has anyone else noticed this? I'm using the stock messaging app.

Other that that, the fix is working which makes me very happy.

 

[Prinny]

Pacman is indeed working. I'm using it as we speak. I think this is my daily now...so much customization...I think my head will explode

I've noticed this too. Kind of odd but just slightly annoying is all. I haven't found a fix for it yet.

I thought so, but I don't see that option under settings at all though.

Yep. It's working though so can't complain.

Perhaps its not in this APK, since its an older version? I would suggest a 3rd party like Handcent or Chomp, then. Because I just checked settings too, and nope, not there.

[droiddekka]

I'm seeing the same 'double recipient' issue on the same aokp rom.

Also, multi selecting threads don't highlight properly.

My roommate said he was getting duplicates from me but it went away randomly.

On gangnams stock messaging app?

 

[izander]

I need to know if this will work with the newest P.A.C.man ROM, also, my Google Now won't bring me to the APN settings, only google searches it.

yes it will work... do not use google now... to get to apn settings, you must use voice dialer... it should be in your app drawer...

Beautiful. Works perfectly.

Would it be possible for someone who knows more about this stuff than I do to make a flashable zip that does all this for us?

 

[dg61981]

So I can confirm that sending is working for me on aokp. Receiving however...not at all. Not even SMS. I have tried all that I know to fix it and nothing helps. Any ideas anyone?
