Hey everyone!

Everytime I send a MMS to a friend, or just about anyone the MMS is almost about to complete it gets stuck and times/errors out with the (!) sign. Can someone push me in the right direction, please? Thank you in advance.

Quick facts:
-Using native iPhone messages app
-Jailbroken by Jailbreakme.com on 4.0.1, and unlocked with UltraSn0w
-Have BiteSMS
-Enabled in settings MMS is switched to "ON"
-Sending MMS only on the NATIVE MESSAGES APP and NOT BiteSMS


Thank you for your help and I hope we can also help someone else
 
Try resetting network settings and see if that helps.

How do I do that in Settings? Will it be safe to do so?


Is it by going to Network -> Turn off 3G and Cellular Data and turning it back on. I just did that and no luck :(

Settings, General, Reset, Reset Network Settings

It resets any network-related setting you made including wifi settings.

ok it's okay, will my phone reboot? I broke my power button btw. Also, it's okay if it's jailbroken and etc. Safe right?
 
It restarts springboard

Gotcha. But, what is exactly factory settings? I don't want it to crash springboard then I need to uninstall random apps from Cydia and other stuff? It's totally safe? SORRY haha I sound way too paranoid. I'll just need to re-enter my WiFi passwords and that's it right?

it 'should' be safe, no guarantees though...

I've had this same problem and am not jailbroken. It's consistent and sucks!
 
Try holding the phone UPWARDS. Meaning the top part of the phone should be facing up towards the sky. It works for me when I get the red exclamation point. The phone gets a better signal when the top is pointing straight to the sky.
