Cannot receive SMS/MMS

@trwidick
Also I would move off stable and move to RC if you can, things have been fixed in RC.

@trwidick Sorry, to be more specific, I'm on cricket, so I don't know if those settings will work for me. Cricket is on AT&T infrastructure though.

Galestrike · 7 Jul 2021, 17:22

I might have just fixed the error. I enabled the options in the APN settings and I seem to be able to use 4G at first glance.

Galestrike · 7 Jul 2021, 17:26

4G seems to work but no luck with MMS in. Could be some APN settings that I need to get right then.

@galestrike

MMS APN Cricket

Name: Internet
APN: Endo
MMSC: http://mmsc.aiowireless.net:80
MMS Proxy: proxy.aiowireless.net

This will be for MMS you will also have one for internet. If this works past both internet and mms setting for every one to see.

@trwidick No luck. Still very wishy-washy with SMS in too. I think I just have to move back to Lineage until I get time to learn how to debug this correctly.

@galestrike This week i have to get a sim card for tmobile, next month i will try cricket wireless.

Galestrike · 8 Jul 2021, 17:04

@trwidick I'll keep messing around with it every morning. I'll let you know if I get it working.

I am a cricketwireless user as well, I now have had voice,data,sms, and mms working for a 3 days now, using 3G only. I could not get sms to work with settings from cricket that you posted. So I wiped and reinstalled, and used the apn settings provivded at install and choisw. 3G. The setting Im using under install are as follows hope it helps somehow.

captainzer0 · 14 Jul 2021, 22:48

Well spoke to soon sms not working again and cant get it back, even reinstalled and wiped but, no dice. Still trying.

@captainzer0 SMS is now 100% reliable. See this update from @fredldotme :

https://forums.ubports.com/topic/6039/bounty-for-pixel-3a-halium-9-stability/18?_=1630188659271

MMS photos are reliable in / out with wifi OFF. Wifi ON and it is a problem, but broader than the P3a. MMS group messages can be sent but receiving they get "lost" (this is with wifi OFF again, with wifi ON, MMS group messages fail like MMS photos).

Pixel 3a XL here on development channel. Cricket wireless. After mixing and matching multiple apn solutions to get mms working, I figured I'd share my fix. Hopefully it'll save someone the heartache I just went through, haha.

WIFI off

2g/3g/4g connection type

APN stuff. Modify existing two and save

-Cricket Internet-
Used for
Internet
Name
Cricket Internet
APN
Endo (think this was the main fix from default ndo)

-Cricket MMS-
Used for
MMS
Name
Cricket MMS
APN
ndo
MMSC
http://mmsc.aiowireless.net
Proxy
192.168.196.78

I believe changing the Cricket Internet to Endo helped with a conflict of both mms and internet being stock set to ndo? Not sure, but that was the last thing I tried before giving up, and it started working.
Hope that helps

I think you are right: in other testing we had similar issues when there were 2 entries with the same APN (one for "Internet" and another for "MMS"). Eventually the best answer will be the ability to set "Internet and MMS" as the APN type, but that is not sticking or working right now.

esoteric · 9 Sept 2021, 20:02

Update. Everything worked. Everything. Now it appears to be denied access. Sigh.

esoteric · 9 Sept 2021, 20:17

Apparently the verizon access point cell booster in the faraday cage-like place I work kicked me. Walked outside and got it back.

So the fix works so far! Just not the darn access point here. Will play more with it.

esoteric · 10 Sept 2021, 20:17

Further update. With no changes, the access point now accepts me. I guess I was initially kicked for being a suspicious new device? Idk how those devices work. Stable now, though.

So with further testing, it seems you can swap ndo and Endo interchangeably between Cricket Internet and Cricket MMS, as long as they're one or the other, and not both the same.

Initial testing sees slightly faster speeds with ndo on Internet, but the ip address location isn't accurate. Which is actually kind of a good thing imo

Also, I changed the MMS entry to mirror the cricket website apn settings.

So my current loadout on Release Candidate branch is this

-Cricket Internet-
Used for
Internet
Name
Cricket Internet
APN
ndo

-Cricket MMS-
Used for
MMS
Name
Cricket MMS
APN
Endo
MMSC
http://mmsc.aiowireless.net
Proxy
proxy.aiowireless.net
Proxy port
80

Sorry if this is all total common knowledge, but I couldn't find a straight answer for my particular situation. Here are my findings. Hope they help someone

Installed UT OTA-19 yesterday on my pixel 3a xl.
SMS/MMS are ok. I can send and receive SMS using 4g on telus network.

@albator
For now it's not OTA 19, as it's RC, it can change untill final release ^^
