[Bug 1464466] Re: [messaging-app] SIM preference ignored for MMS

 

** Description changed:

  I discovered today that the user's choice of SIM slot (configured in the
  messaging app) is only used for SMS.  This setting gets ignored for MMS,
  and instead it uses whatever system settings / cellular has configured
  for cell data.  This can cause failure to send MMS, if the other slot
  has no service, or can cause the message to be sent from the wrong
  number.
  
  I saw this in krillin ubuntu-touch/ubuntu-rtm/14.09-factory-proposed
  image 10, the OTA4 candidate.
  
  I'm not sure how feasible it is to configure this in the same manner as
  SMS uses, since the phone generally only connects to one cell data
  provider at a time, but it would be nice if it used the same policies as
  SMS.
