Hi all, I’ve discovered an issue whilst try to send and receive picture messages through the text message app on my s9+ with /e/
If I try send a picture message it fails and instantly kills my network connection, I lose internet and everything, and I have to turn air plane mode on and off to reset it
The same thing happens if someone sends me a picture message, I never receive it and my network tanks
I’m in Australia if that’s anything relevant
I’ve only had /e/ for a few days and the list of issues just keeps growing
Yes, after checking and comparing your APN settings to your provider’s website,
you can have a look at ”bands-standards" used by the “network type” selected for the integrated modem :
With the dialer, compose *#*#4636#*#* then choose “phone information” in the menu
i am having the same trouble in Australia. Have you had any luck fixing it so far?
What other issues have you found with the phone?
i have found that sometimes i can send mms when on wifi with mobile data turned off…
i am with Optus and have checked all the APN settings according to their website.
as soon as i turn mobile data on, the mms sends… very odd, as it wont send with mobile data turned on all the time - just get a ‘failed to send’ error under the mms picture.
Another update. i managed to get it working after updating my APN (access point names) to the latest values on this website for Optus:
This website also has other Australian APN’s listed - pretty useful
Name OPTUSMMS 3
APN mms
Proxy
Port

MMSC http://mmsc.optus.com.au:8002/
Multimedia message proxy 61.88.190.10

MNC 02
Authentication type PAP ( i used none to get it working)
APN type mms
APN protocol IPv4/IPv6

after updating, it still didnt work. i restarted my phone, then
turned mobile data off.
sent an MMS
turned mobile data on
and it started working normally
after this, i could send and receive MMS as you would normally expect to be able to.
