There's not much difference between 1.1.4 and 1.1.5.

Does the message "appear" to be sent but never reach the destination, or do you see some error message?

[takiainen]

It says first "sending...." Then after few minutes it says "not sent. Touch to retry.

Now I noticed that this issue appears if I'm connected to home WI-FI. It gives error code 4.

If using mobile data, it seems to work fine.

[naveensingh]

Invalid question removed.

The error code 4 means no service i.e. you need mobile data for MMS.

[takiainen]

Sorry, now it doesn't work after all even though I am using mobile data. One picture went through (and another device received it),but most of the time it gives error code 4.

[naveensingh]

The error message could be more user friendly but it still means "No service" so this probably isn't caused by the app, especially because it works sometimes. Please try the following:

• Check if your mobile data plan is active/valid (and includes MMS) or contact your service provider, maybe they are having 'issues' with MMS messages.
• If that doesn't work out, please test this out in app versions that do work for you and then the latest version.

Did another test:

1. Installed 1.1.4 from F-Droid
2. MMS sent successfully with mobile data
3. Connect to home WI-FI
4. Cannot send MMS anymore
5. Switch back to mobile data (turn WiFi off)
6. MMS still doesn't work

App doesn't "notice" the connection change or something?

[naveensingh]

The app displays the error but it is raised by 'part' of the system responsible for sending MMS messages.

• Maybe try enabling/disabling mobile data
• Enable Settings => System => Developer options => Mobile data always active if it's not already enabled.

[takiainen]

Disabling/enabling doesn't help. Mobile data always active _switch was already enabled.

Sorry again. Enabling/disabling seems to work.

Good to know.

If you have to do this often, you might want to test this on some other ROM, maybe this is specific to LineageOS.
