i'm also having this problem with my sprint touch pro. i can't receive pic mail. it doesnt come to my phone. it takes hours. people have to let me know in advance that they sent me a pic mail and then i have to hit send receive to view the pics. very annoying. i called sprint and they tried trouble shooting with me which did not help me in anyway. they even removed the pic mail from my account and reinstated it. still no luck. any advice great ppl of xda?
I am having a similar problem with my Verizon Touch Pro, I receive pic/video messages fine If I am only connected to Verizon's data network, but if I am connected to WiFi it will not send or receive Pic or Video messages, text messages seem to work fine though. Any Ideas??
mms will not work unless connected to the verizon server
MMS is a data transfer from the Verizon network. if you are connected to wifi your phone's data connection is not looking for an internet connection, therefore will not request data packets (or anything else waiting on the verizon servers for you ie MMS). So, you would have to be connected to the data service in order for your phone to query for the waiting data packets.

Ok, that makes sense for RECEIVING, but why does it fail when SENDING, shouldn't it automatically connect to the Verizon Network to send if that is the case? Is there a registry tweak or change to change this?

I have downloaded the SMS fix so that it recognises the names of messages which works ok, but i cannot send messages to anyone without knowing their number. In my sms contacts list there are no names etc. I have imported my contact details from the SIM with appears properly in the phone contacts box, buti cannot use the same contact details to send SMS's.
Also, i am trying to set up an internet connection using a normal ISP through a standard GSM phone call. I do not pay for GPRS connections cos its so expensive, but I do have data calls enabled on my account with T-mobile. I have made data calls before using a nokia 7650 as a modem, but i cannot use the XDA to make a GSM data call to the same ISP. Also, it seems to send me odd network SMS's saying 'please delete' every time i try to connet to the ISP. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
For some reason I can do everything through Wifi except send emails. I can successfully receive my emails, view them, download attachments, browse with internet explorer, and chat on all messenger programs! I have spoken to upper tier level support people at T-mobile and they confirmed my outgoing settings are correct. I use yahooo small business email server and outgoing is set to: smtp.bizmail.yahoo.com. Can anyone help me with this problem?
This is the error message I get: "messages cannot be downloaded to your mobile device. Make sure you are connected and that your e-mail account settings are correct. Then try to download messages again".
timing
Is this a problem that you have just encoutnered or a longer running one. I find that I sometimes get this message if my PC is off (killing the wifi network) or if my internet provider webmail server is down. It may ahve been a glitch that will sort itlsef.
Don't bother phoning and paying fpr Tmobile support - trust me - they don't know anything about the phone you have - stick with the forum!
Hi, I've had this problem from day 1, never been able to send emails
try this
you could try instead of outgoingserver smtp.bizmail
just type in this text smtp.mail.yahoo.com
and furthermore leave the boxes requires ssl connection and outgoing mail requires authentication OPEN.
hope this works for you as it works for me.
Thanks for the suggestion... Tried it, but still no success. Anybody else?
outlook
DO you use outlook elsewhere for this/these accounts and have you double checked that the settings are identical?
Can you send via GPRS?
Hi all,
I want to preface this by saying I've searched the forums, and have not been able to find my specific circumstance addressed. I'm having a problem where I can receive MMS just fine, but I cannot send any MMS from my Galaxy S2 on KE7 with KE4 modem. I'm using AT&T in the USA, and came from an iPhone 3GS. I'm still on the iPhone unlimited data plan (haven't gotten around to switching to a 4G plan yet). MMS always worked just fine on my iPhone, both ways.
When I go to send an MMS, it just keeps trying to send the message forever. I initially see some data activity in the status bar, but it quits after about 5-6 seconds. The message just sits trying to send unless I delete it manually.
Anyone know why this would be occurring? Help is greatly appreciated!

I am having the exact same problem, but I can't even get receiving mms to work. The message comes through but fails to download. I have tried multiple apn settings but nothing works.
Just curious,but are you guys using wifi when trying to send or receive the mms? Data HAS to be on for mms to work, if I'm not mistaken..

Yes I have tried sending over both wifi and 3g with no luck.

I've tried using with WiFi and without...neither one works. Again, I can receive just fine, just not send.
Here I think is your answer.
If you say for example take a picture or video and then within the Camera app try and send either one as a Message, the MMS will fail IF you have the Camera app set to save to Memory Card.
If you change the Camera app to save to phone, then you can take a 8 MP picture and send it as a MMS from the camera app and it will resize and send.
I have mine set to save to memory card, so after you take a pic, you have to go into Gallery and find the picture, then send the exact same 8MP shot as a Message and this time the GS2 will correctly resize and send it.
I'd say its some bug having to do with saving pictures and video to the memory card, but the above way will get you a MMS to send.
Thanks for the info, but I'm pretty sure that's not my problem. I don't even have an external SD card on my phone, and when I go to the Camera options to change storage location, it's greyed out (can't change it), I assume because I have no other option since I don't have an external SD card installed.
Also, when I have tried sending pics via MMS, Handcent will resize the pic, but it still won't send it. BTW, I have tried sending MMS with the stock messaging app, and that doesn't work either...just in case anyone thought it might be Handcent with the problem.
Under Settings > Wireless and Network > Mobile Networks > Network Mode, do you have WCDMA Ony checked, or GSM/WCDMA (Auto Mode) checked?
I found that if I had WCDMA Only checked, I couldn't get MMS messages to work consistently at all.
I have Auto Mode checked.
bump....need MMS to work. help?
check your MMS message center settings. You can access it within the MMS app>menu>settings.
I had this exact same problem when I updated my modem and found out the reason I couldn't send messages because the Message Center phone number was removed.
The correct one for AT&T is +1312349810. Make sure to put the + there.
Edit: NM sounds like your prob is mms only. I have had this problem with my old vibrant galaxy S1 too. The problem was because of the way phone numbers were formatted. For what it's worth I fixed that problem by editing the contact so that their phone numbers are exactly 10 consecutive digits (3 digit area code + the number) without any hyphens or marks ie: 2382819391. No leading 1's, etc. Not sure why it happens but seems to fix it for me.
I haven't had this issue with my SGS2 though.
In all of my old non-Android phones whenever i was sending or recieving an MMS, the phone would automattically turn on data then download/upload the messege and turn off data. I don't seem to be able to that with my SGS2.
I can send MMS only when data is on and it won't turn on automattically and when i recieve an mms i have a download button on the messege so when i turn on data, I can download the messege.
I've tried installing external apps from Google Play like go SMS and several others to no avail. tried searching for a solution with my carrier, and in this forum...perhaps I missed something, tried setting up a seperate APN for MMS.
Can someone help me?
I'm running i9100 with android 4.0.3 and Orange Israel ROM, not rooted.

Hi mate,
I don't think there is a way to do this on the S2. It's frustrating isn't it!!
The only way I can think to do it is download an app called Tasker and set it up that way. Tasker can do everything
Good luck!
There is a way.
You have to separate your APN into two APNs. One for internet, and one for MMS. Then have the internet one be the default. The MMS APN will then only activate when you send or receive MMS.
I have mine set up like this.

I have two APNs. one for the 3g data and the other one is wap data(for all the carrier's stuff) and mms.
3g is set up as default but i kind of have trouble seperating wap and mms as i don't know which deffinitions belong in which APN.
I'll contact the tech support again and ask them how to define this stuff properly or just ask them to send me the apn config.
if that doesn't work i'll try tasker like Obagleyfreer suggested.
thank you both for the help
Running cm7.2 official rom and wondering if rom auto sends and receives mms. If not is there a kernel update or other update I can flash to fix this. I would really prefer it auto send and receive. Thanks in advance.
what do you mean by auto send and receive? all ROMs receive MMS and SMS automatically when they are sent to that phone. i'm not quite sure what you are asking
I have a mot bravo running an unofficial cm7 build, when sending or receiving mms, mobile data is automatically turned on and off. This way my data is off so I don't have to worry about usage but still receive mms.
MMS and normal data use different APN settings.

Yes they do, I'm trying to say that on my moto bravo, when sending a MMS message, I attach the picture to text and then hit send. After hitting send the mobile data icon appears in the status bar and the message w/ pic is sent. When someone sends me a pic, my mobile data icon appears automatically and the pic is ready when I view the message. On the atrix 4g, this doesn't happen. If I want to send a pic I have to turn on mobile data before making the MMS so that when I hit send, it is sent out. Also, if someone sends me a pic, when opening the message there is a button labeled download that I must hit after making sure my mobile data is turned on for pic to be downloaded. I like the way the bravo ROM handles the MMS better.
I hope this is clear enough now.
