        Thanks. looks like it might be on the carrier end. I spent a good bit of time messing with the carrier settings, but could not get group MMS to work.

            Hi All,
            I've just updated mentioned ticket on github with the new findings. Unfortunately issue with MMS is still not solved on 16.04 OTA-4 but some new error messages appeared related to AppArmor (permissions issue?) and missing library.
            Hopefully that will give some hints to the developers.


            • Small update after few hours in digging

            Issue regarding missing library has been reported a year ago:
            https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/352

            There is a workaround to create a link to library that is there already. I assume that library is correct but it's just named wrong.

            Unfortunately i cannot create this symlink due to read only partition.

            phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ sudo mount -o remount,rw /
            [sudo] password for phablet: 
            phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ ln -s /vendor/lib/egl/libGLESv2_adreno.so /vendor/lib/egl/libGLESv2S3D_adreno.so
            ln: failed to create symbolic link '/vendor/lib/egl/libGLESv2S3D_adreno.so': Read-only file system
            

            Why i cannot create this symlink despite of the fact that i've changed partition mode to rw ?

            Thanks for your help

              @tricky Because that file is on yet another partition that you cant make r/w easily πŸ˜‰ - It needs to be fixed in the rootfs build process for the device actually...

                @tricky Making that symlink might make some error message go away for some people, but it's probably not the correct solution to whatever problem one hopes to solve.

                In your case, it might make an apparmor message go away, but it's not going to solve the MMS issue. The warnings/errors from QML in the messaging-app log are also probably unrelated.

                You can check the database/logs for history-service, to see if you are actually receiving the messages. If you're getting the messages and they can't be displayed, then I'd expect this to be an issue for everyone regardless of provider, and possibly an issue in the messaging-app code. But most likely, the problem is deeper than that.

                  @Flohack , @dobey thanks for your answers.
                  Regarding missing library it seems that this issue got stuck somehow on github despite of the fact that it seems to be quite easy to be solved. That's why I've tried to solve it on my own.

                  Unfortunately i cannot find any additional info related to this issue in the log files. Is there any option to run messaging app in debug mode to get more info?

                    Hi all,
                    I didn't give up yet πŸ™‚
                    I noticed that in APN configuration parameters like MMC MNC, authentication method are missing.
                    Below you can find screenshot of those settings for Android for my Mobile operator.
                    0_1537597999326_mms.png

                    I found some info that these values are somehow calculated automatically based on SIM card and that's why there is no need to configure them. Can someone confirm that?

                    Another idea is to add those parameters manually by using set-context-property script that is stored in /usr/share/ofono/scripts/.
                    There is short explanation how to configure APNs via terminal under the link below
                    https://askubuntu.com/questions/413438/no-mobile-data-on-nexus-4-ubuntu-touch/456119#456119
                    Did anyone try to play with those scripts? I couldn't find any info to confirm that this solution is working.

                    Thanks!

                      @tricky Hello everyone. This still does not seem to work here (T-Mobile Czech Rep.).
                      Was there anything done to resolve this, please?

                        If you are adventurous: https://github.com/ubports/messaging-app/pull/260

                        This will give you some error reporting, nuntium logs should give some info too

                          Hi All,
                          I follow Pine64 forum and i found quite interesting topic regarding mobian and MMS issues. One of the users developed script to retrieve not delivered MMS. If i remember correctly Mobian use ofono as well so maybe that's something that could be useful for us too.
