Thanks for posting this!!!

The woman has an LG G Pro on ST and hasn't been able to get picture messages for a while now until I came upon these instructions.

I didn't follow the instructions exactly, I had the mms apn and the defualt apn added before putting the sim card back in and it still worked.

Default option got picked up w/out me even having to change to it.

Again, thanks a bunch for posting this friend!!
[LG Optimus G Pro] hero913:
Hey guys,

I did the fix last night but after a restart and a few hours later, the phone didn't get mms service again.

I checked the apn and the "mms" apn , the "type" got reset back to default instead of mms.

I know I followed the instructions a little differently my first time around but the second and third time I followed the instructions exactly but still got the same results after a few hours.

Anyone have any suggestions? Location service seems to be messing up too..
[LG Optimus G Pro] dunni88:
It also didn't work for me. I've tried a lot of settings and tricks and I just can't seem to crack it. I'm on a locked D800 (AT&T G2) with KitKat Modem, Mahdi ROM and a "new" Straight talk AT&T micro sim.

Need help getting messaging to work on LG Optimus Pro running 4.2.2 android.

I followed the instructions from the previous poster:

The only issue I ran into was in setting up the APN named Straight Talk MMS it would not let me save without entering a number for the Mcc and MNC fields. So I entered 310 and 410 respectively. Other than that I followed the directions exactly. After completing the steps I sent a picture via my messaging app, no problem. A day later I tried to send another one and it wouldn't send. I checked the APN settings and the 2 that I created were still there but the one named Straight Talk MMS no longer had "mms" in the type field. It had changed to default (which is greyed out).

My phone is an unlocked ATT LG Optimus Pro that has Android 4.4.2. It had and earlier version on it when I purchased it and the Straight Talk settings from ST's website made everything work fine. I could send pictures in texts, np. This summer my phone automatically updated to 4.4.2 but everything still worked fine.

Then last week I did a factory reset due to some issues I was having. I guess it immediately automatically updated Android to 4.4.2 in the reset and so now when I put in ST settings they don't allow me to send a photo in a text.

I really do not want to root my phone as I have no idea how to do that and it sounds complicated and time consuming. I was glad to find this fix and it worked temporarily.

Any suggestions?

Rooting is easy as pie. Go to this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2785465

Kitkat Root LG G Pro w/ Towel Rooting, and follow the instructions.
[LG Optimus G Pro] wunderlong88:
So if I follow those directions I will be rooted and have Kit Kat operating? Then can I fix my mms problem?

I am a noob and excuse my stupid questions but if I root do I lose all of my data and apps and have to start fresh?

TY!
[LG Optimus G Pro] viewtifuljoe71:
Yes sir. You will. Read the thread throughly, so you will understand what you are doing. Understand what rooting and unlocking the bootloader is.

Ok...when I go to the link that you gave me - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2785465 I don't really understand it.

I clicked on the first link mentioned which takes me to: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52945705&postcount=1&nocache=1&z=4573731035925448

I also tried clicking the link www.towelroot.com and Firefox warns me not to go to that site.

I clicked the bottom xda link and looked at that thread.

The first link and the last both give me threads with all kinds of other links and instructions but it is so not clear to me what any of it is talking about or which thing to do first. Is there a page that has clear instructions in one thread (excluding downloading software links)?

I'm sorry that I am so dense. I really have a lot of understanding when it comes to a pc and Windows but this phone thing is all new to me.

TY!
[LG Optimus G Pro] viewtifuljoe71:

I read that if I would put the apk file on my sd card on phone that I could use an app installer from Google play to find and run it. Is this the right thing to do?

I tried to send the tr.apk file to my email so that it would be on my phone so I can save it to my sd card but my email is telling me that the tr.apk file has a virus. Firefox tried to keep me from going to the site to download it in the first place but I ignored that. Now, I am concerned about this file having a virus.

Ok...it hasn't occurred to me to just download this file on my phone! DUh!
[LG Optimus G Pro] viewtifuljoe71:
Lol. That's right. Be sure to enable USB debugging and check the box for install from unknown sources.
[LG Optimus G Pro] wunderlong88:

[LG Optimus G Pro] viewtifuljoe71:
If you want to. You can't unlock the bootloader on this phone. There is an exploit you have to use. It's called Freegee. It's in the play store.
[LG Optimus G Pro] wunderlong88:
So, if I don't install a recovery do I still have the factory reset recovery mode available that came on the phone?
[LG Optimus G Pro] viewtifuljoe71:
Yea. It's still there.
[LG Optimus G Pro] wunderlong88:
TY so much for all of your help. I downloaded and installed SQLite Editor (the $2.99 one by Speed Software) to fix my mms problem. I go to FILES to navigate to the folder the OP says to go to but SQLite is saying "Looking for database files. Please wait...." It has been saying this for over 4 minutes. Surely this is not normal but I don't know what to do next.
[LG Optimus G Pro] viewtifuljoe71:
I will say this though, using a recovery is very useful. It allows you to make a nandroid backup. Which is a one off backup copy of your phone. If something ever goes wrong, or you get stuck in a bootloop, you can always use your recovery to go back.

---------- Post added at 08:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:35 PM ----------

Go to the task manager and close out the app. Then reopen it.
[LG Optimus G Pro] wunderlong88:
That fixed it and I fixed my mms problem! I sent and received a picture in a text! TY so much!

This phone came preinstalled with AT&T phonebook and everytime I try to select a contact to call the AT&T phonebook takes over and takes me online to sign up for it (although there is no link there and nothing I can do). When I first got this phone I spent hours with LG and tried to fix this problem (it is a bug of some kind) to no avail. It is very annoying and I finally downloaded another contact/phone app and don't use the one that came on the phone. I was told I could fix that problem though, if I rooted. Now that I'm rooted I would fix it, if I knew how! LOL

I do appreciate your help and I will check into the backup/recovery option sometime.
[LG Optimus G Pro] viewtifuljoe71:
No problem bro. You're welcome, and good luck. I'm around of you have anymore questions.

[LG Optimus G Pro] Nore00:
Download an app in your playstore called.....No Bloatware free.....

No Bloatware free..... allows you to either turn the pre installed garbage AT&T loads into either of the following two options.

You can uninstall it and backup.....creates a apk of the app an stores it on your phone if you choose to reinstall it later.

Or erase it completely......

BEFORE YOU USE THIS READ IT..............If you are new to rooting an dont know which apps/files are suppose to be there......you could end up with a expensive paperweight......when in doubt google it, youtube it, ask first......always have good backup restore app with current backups to unbrick ur phone.

[LG Optimus G Pro] matrix5k:
Hello sir,

I just purchased an LG G2 from eBay and ported my number from Virgin to Straight Talk. This is only my second smartphone so I have no idea what "kitkat" or "rooted" means. I Googled some APN settings and everything worked great at LTE except for MMS. I followed your instructions, except I didn't pull out the battery in step 7 'cause that's not easy to do with this phone (for me at least). It also required me to enter a MCC and MNC in step 5 so I used the same ones as in step 9. It still worked and now I get voice, internet, texts, and picture texts at LTE speeds. Thanks so much!
[LG Optimus G Pro] RavingMiniac:
All fine and dandy but an LG E980 WILL NOT allow you to save those initial settings with the MCC and MNC fields blank - at least mine will not, tried 6-7 times following your instructions to the letter and nothing works. Please clarify.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Cr0wbaar:
I have a lg g2 and this worked perfectly for me first try. only thing i did different was when i finished typing out the first set of settings it told me i needed to enter digits in for mcc and mnc so i used 310 and 410 respectively. worked no problems.
[LG Optimus G Pro] andygold:
I too have the issue where the phone will not receive an mms, although sometimes it will if i turn off wifi.

I'm on AT&T and I'm hoping someone has all the proper settings that i need to enter, as i want to stay on AT&T .
[LG Optimus G Pro] Seejaybee:
Additional Option, may be needed for some phones

Just a heads up for other users, there are apparently some sort of settings that will require a variation to this method. My wife and I each have the LG Optimus G Pro and my phone worked with this method but hers would not. A little research found the same basic process but different settings, if the below method doesn't work go here and try the att.mvno settings.

[LG Optimus G Pro] Hannibal_32:
SQLite Editor

Just an FYI to anyone having issues getting the telephony.db saved with the new changes. Using the free SQLite Editor wasted a LOT of my time. I finally broke down and paid $2.99 to the SQLite Editor by SPEED SOFTWARE. It offers a "save" setting and it took immediately. To reaffirm what another poster said, you don't need to delete anything. Just change the Straight Talk APN settings for type = default,mms,supl and usercreate = 0. I did those two things and it worked immediately.

Thanks for the thread!

[LG Optimus G Pro] RavingMiniac:
I should begin by saying that I am on Cricket's network and I attempted these steps substituting cricket's APN data rather than straight talk, however every time I pull the battery and reinsert the sim card once the phone boots it always has the AT&T APN back in position. I have followed these instructions to the letter and get the same results every time. I am beginning to think AT&T has this phone locked to their network. I'm about to test it's durability against a wall.
[LG Optimus G Pro] ThaHawk:
[MENTION=6426660]RavingMiniac[/MENTION] go to post #55 for visual :D
[LG Optimus G Pro] RavingMiniac:
Still doesn't work

Followed the video to the exact detail, rooted phone using all the items he used, edited file with SQLite editor just like he did, and every single time the AT&T APN keeps reappearing and the phone still won't send photos, won't connect to 4G or LTE, drops calls when dialing and the best signal I can get outside of WiFi is "E" with one or two bars.

POS paperweight that lights up is all this thing is. Thanks for the advice though.
[LG Optimus G Pro] ThaHawk:
Ok go back to your APN settings hit the menu button then click reset to default

Then put whatever apn you want to put there in and hit save.

then go to your root explorer, data, then data again, com.android.providers.telephony

databases,telephony.db that should open the sqlite editor

hit carriers then go to the apn that you've created and change the following

type: default,mms,supl

defaultsetting: 0

usercreatesetting: 0

save and reboot

you should then be able to go back to the APN that you created and nothing should be greyed out

Also you should be able to send and receive pixs Amigo
[LG Optimus G Pro] RavingMiniac:
Still nothing

Tried your advice step by step and nothing same results. A friend suggested that my software being out of date current version (E98020h) and it should be (E98020i) may have something to do with the phone being so defiant.

I called LG and was told basically that AT&T owns the update even though it's LG's software. Called AT&T who stated based on my IMEI info, my phone was purchased from a member who walked away from a contract they would not provide any assistance with the phone updates. This phone is locked to AT&T and basically useless, even though I own it now, until that amount is paid off to AT&T they will not allow it to be used.

I tried to use TWRP and CWM to conduct a ROM installation thinking I could bypass the whole thing. Got the phone rooted successfully already, but when I tried to install a ROM it appears that AT&T locked access to the recovery menu because the phone just shuts down and sits on the LG logo without booting until you pull the battery and start again. So off to the firing range next week to see what it feels like to empty a magazine in my worthless LG paperweight.
[LG Optimus G Pro] ThaHawk:
What does it say when you try to update the software?

[MENTION=5966722]brodood[/MENTION] post #13 worked for my LG G Flex D950 on Airvoice. Just substituted the Airvoice APN info.

TY TY TY
[LG Optimus G Pro] zapjb:
Very much appreciated. Took your guide & gave you credit. After all this is your work. I tweaked it for Airvoice Wireless & posted it at Hofo in the LG & Airvoice forums. Here are the modified instructions.

FIRST this is not my work. Props to brodood

http://xdaforums.com/show...7&postcount=13

http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2761126

I tweaked it for Airvoice. Original is for Tracphone.

On certain LG phones APN Type is grayed out so MMS is impossible through ordinary ways.

AGAIN the following is NOT my work. Neither is the origin story I just switched out the specific TF settings for the AV settings & order.

Airvoice LG MMS apn Type grayed out. Fix WITHOUT ROOT.

It is possible to change the APN type without SQLite or root. The guys at my work figured this out. It is kind of a tricky workaround, but this is tested and working on LG Optimus G Pro, G Flex, and G2 with the MMS issues.

1. Go to the APN Settings and reset them to default. After that you should only see the AT&T APN

2. With the SIM card in the phone open Mobile Networks (get to the screen where you can click on Access Point names.)

3. DO NOT POWER OFF THE PHONE FOR THIS PART! On that screen and with the phone still on, slide the SIM out. You should get a prompt asking to reset the phone. DO NOT RESET THE PHONE.

4. After the prompt click on Access Point Names. There should be no APNs here. If the AT&T APN is still here go back to step 1.

5. Now you need to create a new APN with the SIM is removed. The APN should be as follows:

Name: Mobile MMS

APN: att.mvno

Proxy: Not set

Port: Not set

Username: Not set

Password: Not set

MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com

MMS proxy: 66.209.11.33

MMS port: 80

MCC: 310

MNC: 410

If available, for the Authentication Type: PAP

APN Type: mms

authtype: none

THE APN TYPE SHOULD ONLY BE FOR MMS. DO NOT PUT ANYTHING ELSE IN THE "TYPE" FIELD

6. Now with everything typed in DOUBLE CHECK EVERYTHING. If it is correct you can save this APN. Once it is saved there will still be no APNs on the APN page.

7. Pull the battery and put the SIM back in the phone.

8. Go back to the APN settings and DO NOT open the APN you just created or it will reset the entire process!!!!! If you did everything right the Airvoice MMS APN you just made should not have the selection bubble. If you have a selection bubble on the Airvoice MMS, go back to

Step 1.

9. Make another new APN as Follows:

Name: Mobile Web

APN: att.mvno

Proxy: 66.209.11.33

Port: 80

Username: Not set

Password: Not set

MMSC: Not set

MMS proxy: Not set

MMS port: Not set

MCC: 310

MNC: 410

If available, for the Authentication Type: PAP

APN Type: default (or select INTERNET if available

authtype: none

10. Save this APN and select it. You should get Data & MMS now.

Me again. The above worked for Tracphone & I got it to work on Airvoice. So other AT&T MVNO's should or might work. I suggest using your specific MVNO's APN settings. Let me know if this works on T-Mobile & their MVNO's. Oh if you're thankful & appreciative go to the XDA link & give thanks, I did.
[LG Optimus G Pro] bwalton28:
If you use a sqlite editor once you create the apn make this update query and it works alot easier UPDATE 'carriers' SET 'type' = 'default,mms' WHERE _id='your new apn id number' that way it doesnt keet turning your carrier enabled to a true or false.

On mine if i used supl it jacked my gps and i didnt have to delete any fields.
