mms on iphone 4s with straighttalk

I have a factory unlocked i-phone 4s and I am using a Straight Talk sim card. This has worked well for several months. Last week I started having trouble with my 4G connection. I called Apple and they walked me through re-setting the Network settings. The 4G connection worked great, except I could no longer send or receive mms messages. My data network tab is not on the phone. Apple said that it was my carrier but after speaking with Straight Talk I was told that the problem was with my phone. I took my phone to the Apple store and they ran diagnostics and could not find a problem. A friend with the same phone, except they have an AT&T sim card, put her sim card in my phone and once again, the mms messages did not work. Any suggestions????

iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1.1

T Mobile iPhone 6 on Straight Talk with a Tracfone SIM.

This is what worked for me after digging a little bit deeper.

Manual APN configuration.

If you do this you DO NOT need to install the APN SETTINGS as instructed by the Straight Talk Website.

Put in the SIM card and follow his instructions.

It is from 2013 but works nonetheless.

Thanks SeanPatrick83!!!!
