Troubleshooting and Understanding MMS

[pikurasa]

Sorry if someone mentioned this before/or this was known before but I noticed that you asked earlier in this thread detailed mms config from a user whose mms settings works in Verizon.
Then he/she posted config details from: /home/user/.mms/modemmanager/mms
AFAIK the recommended way to set mms settings is via Chatty and System settings. If you edit this /home/user/.mms/modemmanager/mms directly you have to first stop mmsd-tng and or chatty - otherwise it will not work.

I appreciate this, but, yes, I have both tried changing the settings in Chatty and system settings as well as stopping mmsd-tng and then editing .mms/modemmanager/mms

In fact, I just checked my phone right now and:

Chatty

MMSC = http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms
APN = vzwapp

Settings

APN = vzwapp

(no flood of MMS, which I know I should be getting because I can see they are received via Verizon's Web app.)

I am not ruling out that I have some really small thing misconfigured, but right now I know not what that is.

At any rate, I appreciate the help!
