Help Prevail not sending picture mail

Hello all,

Ok, so i have searched thru the forums (btw, cool feature that it shows you similar threads before posting on here to make sure i didnt miss anything) and i couldn't find anything on this for the prevail. i found similar problems for other phones and tried their suggestions (checking APN settings, i couldn't add an APN tho).

I am trying to send pic messages (MMS) thru the stock messaging app that came with the prevail. I had no problems sending before and today it has stopped working. The only changes that i have made was that i rooted my phone last night. i'm not saying thats what caused it but thats the only thing that i've "messed" with on the phone between now and the last time i was able to send a pic msg. i removed bloatware (think office, telenav, twitter crap, poynt, scavenger, youtube). I used titanium backup to remove them.

At first, from reading other threads, i thought the problem was that i was using the wifi and i had 3G off. i read somewhere on here that even tho you have wifi the MMS pic mail must go thru 3G. so i turned it back on and even reset and no dice. I tried regular texts and they go thru just fine.
i also tried Whatsapp and i was able to send pic mail no prob thru that one. The problem is that not everyone i know has whatsapp. plus whatsapp might be sending them a diff way than the stock msg app.

I thought it may be a memory issue (that was the reason i rooted, so i could make some room) but after deleting alot of message threads and pics within the messaging app, i still am unable to send pics.

Any ideas? let me know what info you need and i'll get that to you.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

not sure if you checked but look to see you didn't accidentally delete the mms.apk when you were removing bloat. I think that has caused this issue with some
 
i'm assuming i check that in titanium back up right? i looked under the backup/restore menu and under the "M" programs i only see sms/mms pref...essaging2.2.2 for what looks like the stock chat app. its a green word bubble with a smiley face. i can't remember if thats the logo for it. but other than that i dont see anything else. is there somewhere else i can check?
