Just to provide more data on my situation.

My phone will get clogged with messages that don’t show up on Chatty. Then it stops receiving SMS.

I run these commands in Terminal ( called Console on my phone):
$ mmcli -m any --messaging-list-sms

the phone responds with something like this:

Found 10 SMS messages:
/org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/SMS/0 (received)

But it will say that 10 times for 10 messages with the last digit counting up.

Then I run:

$ mmcli -m any --messaging-delete-sms=0

and repeat that, changing the last digit to match all the messages the phone listed. After that all my SMS that hadn’t come through before show up on Chatty-- even showing the correct time when the SMS was sent. I think I even raised my reception from 2G to 4G. I presume those stuck messages are the MMS. And that makes me think the phone is receiving them, but Chatty can’t process them. Obviously I could be wrong. I got the Terminal commands from this article ( https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PinePhone_FAQ#The_phone_does_not_receive_SMS)

What firmware do you have on the modem? I ask because once I loaded Biktorgj firmware, I stopped getting stuck messages. 

There is the Biktorgj firmware AND the ADSP firmware. You need both. You also need to use the correct ADSP firmware for T-Mobile (ADSP Version 01.003.01.003)

So steps are quite simple:
Make sure that you have removed all stuck messages from your modem
Maybe it might be wise to flash fresh image (just to be sure that there is nothing left on that mms-matrix thing )


Then find out what APN your carrier is using for MMS
Insert (or activate) that APN from System settings
Insert those same APN details to Chatty (and add also the extra details which Chatty is asking but System settings is not)
Then just try - it should work now.
If your Carrier is using different APN for MMS and Data I have workaround for that also but if they are using same APN for both this is only thing what you should need to do.

(And regarding to mentioned Biktorgj modem firmware - I 100% recommend it but it does not remove not working MMS problems. It can remove stuck SMS messages but if they are MMS you can't see who send them and what was inside the message so instead you most likely want working MMS)
