Hey guys,
I have a HERO and do i love it .... but one thing though.... i have an apn for 3g/gprs with which gprs works just fine ....i also have the mms settings done in the phone ..... but the mms only comes when i switch to the mms settings :S .... thats confusing ... isnt there a way that both the settings co exist and i dont have to switch ...
Appreciate your help peeps
You need to change your MMS APN so that it has an "APN type" of "mms". Once you've done this, the MMS APN will no longer be directly selectable.
You might also need to change the type of your "normal" APN to "default".

Dave

Thanks alot for the quick responds Mr. Fox .... by the APN type u mean the option which is at the bottom most section of the Apn settings page ?
I have just typed "default" for APN TYPE for GPRS and " mms" for the APN Type for the mms apn ... that oughtta do it right ?
Yes, that is correct on both counts!
Regards,
Dave
Well now i am really worried :S ... no i cant get it to work .... I am living in Pakistan and i'll post the mms settings for my operator so maybe someone could tell me what i might be doing wrong and/or what is the best way to apply these settings.
Ok so i already have an APN which is for Gprs ( i didnt touch it and browsing is just fine )
FOr MMS i created a new APN settings page ...

AM i missing something ?
Someone in this thread posting MMS APN settings for Warid, though they are identical to yours. I suggest PM'ing the person who posted they may be able to post.
Check your original data APN too, and try removing anything related to MMS in case this is causing your issue.

I somehow figured out the MMS settings for my X10i when I bought it, but now I did the update to the latest firmware and cannot figure out the MMS settings on the $10 data plan on Tmobile USA, can someone check the settings they are using and help me? I'm going nuts over here.
The only thing you would need to change is in the main APN settings, under APN name replace "epc..... " with "internet2.voicestream.com"
There is no need to change anything in the MMS APN.

That's what i tried at first and it didn't work, but I will give it another go, thanks!
Im on AT&T and I had the same problem. Im sure its different between networks (worth a try), But basically I filled in all options in the APN settings. Try surfing the web to find a complete collection of settings.

You can also quite simply call t-mobile customer care and ask them.
They're usually very nice and helpful.
On my X10i its
epc.tmobile.com
and every thing else is left untouched.
But as you've got a $10 data plan, it could be different for you.

Hey guys, I have an X10i and I'm with AT&T but I can only use the Edge network, I was wondering if there's an extra setting for the MMS because I can't send or receive MMS. Thanks~
I am only getting EDGE speed with T-mobile but was getting 3G with AT&T. I just have the "epc." setting in my APN.

Do you receive clear pictures in your text messaging. Like when someone send you a picture in text does it look clear on your x10.
I tried to post a thread asking for help regarding this and no one respond. Dont know why.

this did not work for me. I even tried switching the 216 and 261 under both proxies in case it was a typo
My Vibrant doesn't have a "MMS Protocol: WAP 2.0" field... It does have an "Authentication type" field, but the only options are:
1) None
2) PAP
3) CHAP
4) PAP or CHAP
That's it.
Also, I should note that I CAN send/receive MMS when sent to myself; but if I send an MMS to someone else it shows up blank and if they send an MMS to me it says "Downloading" then it fails (without a message) and presents a "Download" button which ends up doing nothing.
My Vibrant is doing the same thing. I upgraded to the official t-mobile leaked 2.2 and since doing so I have not been able to receive any picture MMS. I can send them just fine but when I receive them it just says downloading and it never downloads. I entered in all that info for the APN and what not and set the proxy nothing works any ideas? Help some chick sent me a bunch of nudies last night and I could not receive them hehe must fix
Anyone found an answer to this Q? Im running stock 2.2 .. but guess i need to root and try a ROM
I know this is late..but hope it helps someone in the future
Hey guys, when it just says downloading and never shows the pic...
What i did that worked was to go into settings of your messages area and under the MMS settings turn off "auto-retrieve" - this starts downlaoding the pic as soon as you recieve the message.
Now that its off, there should be a button in the MMS message that says download (you have to do it manually now). When you press it, the pic should pop right up.
Hope this helps, BTW im using a Samsung Vibrant -
Key phrase for search:
Samsung Vibrant
MMS messages just say "downloading"
just says downloading MMS messages
How to fix
APN settings MMS fix Vibrant
This is something that's worked on my Vibrant when trying out new ROMs and the MMS isn't working. Download "Contacts Clean-Up" free from the Market. Leave the 1 in Country Code and whatever your area code is in the Area Code field is and click on the last selection +XXXYYYZZZZZZZ then hit Preview and Apply. Let the app do it's thing and then try sending and receiving MMS pictures again. It's worked for me. There's a thread already out there about this same issue and that's where I found this solution. Lemme know if this works for you guys.
Tried both (auto retrieve and contact clean) and it is still not working. I rember when i was on 2.1 and i talked to Tmo for about 2 hours until they asked me to do a wipe and that seem to have "cured" the issue, and then after installing 2.2 same problem. I would hate to wipe and start over. Any good recomendations on backups that will save my pics/music and my apps (plus settings for those aps) that are free?
I'm having the same problem
Did you guys find a solution?
I use to be able to recieve picture texts, but randomly the past few months it just says "downloading" but never does.
I tried switching from auto to manual, same thing.
Any other suggestions?
I'm running on stock rooted/deodexed KB5 2.2
Editing this post, I got it to work!
So what I had to do was what the person above said, switch from auto retrieve to manual, but it still didn't work. Then I switched from wifi to 3G, and it started to work.
I guess you can't download mms on wifi?
Hey bro, try this: go to messaging app, tap the menu key, press settings, scroll down to MMS portion of the settings, uncheck auto-retrieve. Hope this helps!

Just something I have noticed in all the custom roms I have tried on my P500 and GT540 is that the APN is always WRONG.
Everybody separates the MMS and Internet APN for Vodafone in Australia however that stops MMS from sending and the APN set as vfinternet .au although working means that you don't get any of the free data use like Facebook and Twitter as that APN doesn't allow it.
Correct APN for Australia is live .vodafone .com then leave all fields blank using same APN the MMS details get added to the bottom.
MMS will not work at all (on my devices anyway) if its in a seperate APN using either Stock messages or GO SMS.
It Should Read as
Name Vodafone Au
APN live .vodafone. com
Proxy <Not Set>
Port <Not Set>
Username <Not Set>
Password <Not Set>
Server <Not Set>
MMSC http ://pxt[/url]. vodafone .net.au/pxtsend
MMS Proxy 10.202.2.60
MMS Port 8080
MCC 505
MNC 03
Authentication Type <Not Set>
APN Type <Not Set>
APN Protocol IPv4
Thats the APN settings that work fully on new and old baseband for Vodafone Australia and gives you free Facebook and Twitter.
Vfinternet .au does not give you the free FB and Twitter. Note the spaces in the addresses are not meant to be there just XDA wouldn't let me post it as it told me it was an external link???
Have you had any luck with the new "MyVodafone" app on Android?
I can't get the damn thing to synch usage stats in either the app itself or its widget.
I thought it was the service but I installed it today on a phone with stock Vodafone ROM and the app loaded info in split second... anyone else have this problem on CM?
No I haven't tried it I don't tend to use things written by vodafone I stick with the apps and progs that I know work on custom roms.
I have setup the T-Mobile APN in multiple possible ways: changed the existing one, created a new one, create 2 (one for data and one for mms). But I cant get MMS to work at all. Data is fine btw. I have Edge and HSPDA around Dallas metroplex.
Anyone got any lucks with T-Mobile MMS on this phone?
I'm in the same boat as you but I don't really use pics message that much but I hope someone figure out how to make it work

I have been trying since it came out. I have been somewhat successful by getting gosms and going to the advance settings and putting in the mmsc manually in their settings, does not work all the time but does sometimes
Got it to work
Ok finally got it to work. I have done some major investigation but It works until a reset then all you have to do is change a simple setting to correct it
To get it to work first you have to put in your sim card. The phone will put in the generic TMO settings for APN. After that you have to go edit the settings. Change them to

After that you have to go to the play store and download GOSMS pro (free app). Once it is installed open it up, go through their tutorial. Hit menu then go to settings, once there go to advance, scroll to the bottom and hit mms settings then scroll to the bottom of it put a check in the “fill apn configuration manually” box. Then you will set your MMSC to" http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc " then your proxy to : " 216.155.165.050 " then your port to " 8080 ". Hit the back button and you are good to go. After that you will have MMS working (may get a did not download message but the pic did download. If you reboot you will have to go in and edit your APN to clear out the default apn type, save it and good to go

can you guys post your experience with data speeds for the DNA in tmobile? are you getting 4G or 3G or 2G only and if so, where are you?
thanks
I live in an 4g market but not the 1900mhz market so i only get edge but they are suppose to have it up and running by the end of the month so we will see then
I used this with multiple unbranded or unlocked phones I had. When I had the DNA briefly I used this and it worked for me.
Just pick your carrier and reboot and MMS should work.

Thanks, Crackeyes - these settings worked for me on my DNA (running Newt's M7 ROM, if that makes a difference). I didn't need to use GOSMS on mine. The settings you provided worked fine using the stock messaging app. I'm so happy (since I've tried settings posted in other threads and they didn't work or were missing some of the settings entries you posted).
Can someone on stock post a screenshot of their settings? MMS got broken again (as seems to happen with every damn android phone I get...) and the usual settings I used to fix it in the past don't seem to work with this phone for some reason.
Thanks!

are the stock apn's
download 8sms and manually override sms settings see if it works in that client (you can put your own APN settings in it)
Tested some more, definitely an issue with the ROM. Flashing Skyfall fixed it anyway.
Glad you got it sorted....
