Any US users on Mint Mobile with MMS working? Can you share APN settings or any other tricks?
-
I have a OnePlus N10 Nord 5G running 24.04. It's working pretty well, but I can't seem to get MMS working. I can't send pictures to my son (gotta share the home made sourdough bread pictures and photos of birds at the feeder!).
This is what Mint Mobile site says to use:
APN SettingsName – Mint APN – Wholesale Proxy – (leave blank) Port – (leave blank) Username – (leave blank) Password – (leave blank) Server – (leave blank) MMSC – http://wholesale.mmsmvno.com/mms/wapenc Multimedia Message Proxy – (leave blank) Multimedia Message Port – 8080 MCC – (do not change default values) MNC – (do not change default values) Authentication Type – (leave blank) APN Type – default,supl,mms,ia APN Protocol – IPv4/IPv6 APN Roaming Protocol – IPv4/IPv6 MVNO type: GID MVNO value: 756DI don't see an option in the GUI for a lot of these settings, but I did set Name to Mint, APN to Wholesale, MMSC to http://wholesale.mmsmvno.com/mms/wapenc. I left proxy and proxy port blank.
When I do this, my phone takes forever to start up and I have to force a boot (hitting sound up/sound down/power at the same time and holding for 10 to 20 seconds).
Anyway, sending pictures is not working, and a simple boot fails.

I'm not on Telegram, but probably should be. Thanks for the head's up.
So, I thought and thought and thought. And decided I am missing something extremely obvious. I have two Mint numbers for me - one for my Android phone, one for Ubuntu Touch. And I have a 3rd for my son's iPhone. And a fourth for my wife's iPhone. They are all on Mint. MMS works on all of them except my UT phone. Maybe I ought to just look at the APN settings on one of the working phones and compare it to mine.
So, here is what worked for me:
Name: ultra (all lower case)
APN: wholesale (all lower case)
MMSC: http://wholesale.mmsmvno.com/mms/wapenc
Proxy: leave blank
Proxy port: leave blank
User name: leave blank
Password: leave blankOn my tests, the picture did not go through the first time, it failed. I hit the red failed icon to try again - and it worked on the second try. Not sure why. But I'll take it.

I forgot to add that wifi is enabled and my phone goes between L and 5g depending on where I am in the house. But I did not turn wifi off.
