MMS Sending error:  Verizon was updating towers (October 13th) and our family lost the ability to send calls or texts unless on we used Wi-Fi calling.  After the tower was back up we received "Service Not Activated on Network" when we tried to send MMS (texts with photos).  Agents online have had us reset our phones so many times with no help.  An agent in the Xfinity store swapped out a SIM card but still it does not work. Now (October 19th) I am lending my voice to this forum to see if we can get more help.

@XfinityAldrik​ I have tried chat and texting and calling, many, many times and also several visits to the store, many of the agents have no clue and unfortunately keep repeating the same fixes, I have been told 2-4 hours to fix, and then a ticket to be answered in 24 hours, no responses and no fixes. These are new phones, and a new account only a week old. The error has to do with RCS and non RCS phones and some work that Verizon has done on the system.

I went to the store today. The agent contacted Tier 2 service.  50 minutes later (after all the same tests) they transferred me to Tier 3 service. Within 1 hour my 3 phones were working again and able to send MMS without difficulty

Has anyone found a solution to this problem. It just started for me. I'm not receiving any group texts or pictures because of it.

Yes, I've chatted with xfinity support numerous times. I was told a ticket was entered but, as of yet, no fix or response.

@Cjenlee_914​  yeah I'm honestly about to just switch carriers this secondhand service is ridiculous its clearly a widespread ossue and ive been having this problem for months only getting worse, and apparently people.whove reached out for help arent getting helped. Yeahhhh im out time for a big boy service lol can't even send and barely get pictures and videos, missing vital group texts from work, can't even SEND group texts for work barely get Internet in air of places. Might as well be reimbursed for the last 3 months foreal, like that'd ever happen lol.

As stated earlier, my solution came from tier 3 customer support at the xfinity store, not anything I did to my phone.

I have been having the same issue. Xfinity assistant and customer service was not helpful. I finally figured it out on my own. I backed up all my data then reset network setting. The issue I saw was my Sim mobile network said disconnected and after I completed reset I was able to send pictures again. After reset sim mobile network said connected.
