Android MMS not downloading.

Hey Linus Tech Tips,

 

Whenever I try to download a file via MMS on my Samsung Galaxy S3 which runs Android 4.3 it won't download and takes and just displays the loading bar. I'm not sure if this is a problem that MMS is just slow as hell or there's a problem with my phone. 

CPU: Core i7 4770k, RAM: 8GB DDR3 GSkill Ripjaws X, PSU: OCZ 700W, GPU: AMD Radeon R9 270X, Case: Fractal Design Define R4 Black Pearl, Cooler: Noctua NH-D14

I also have this problem. What are you using for your SMS/MMS message sender? I heard that GoSMS Pro solves this issue.

I like the color scheme of Noctua fans. Deal with it. Forget about the bad memories of the past.

Forget about the bad memories of the past, take the good ones along with you through the present, and look forwards to the good things that will come in the future.

Make sure you got cellular data enabled. MMS requires it to be on to download the files (only WiFi will not work). I strongly recommend you don't use MMS by the way (because it's terrible).  It's better to for example attach the file to a mail and send that.
