Hi, I have had my Hero now for 4 weeks and have been very happy with it apart from the bluetooth issue, I have updated it to the latest rom with no problems. Today for the first time I needed to send a picture message to a friend and discovered that they will not send. I contacted Vodafone Customer services who were no help at all because phone is not supported. I did a search to check if the right settings are in place and as far as I can see they are. I got a friend to send me a picture message to see if it would arrive, it arrived but came as a download format which after downloaded shows as a slideshow with just one slide. Is this the normal way a picture message arrives on the Hero or am i missing something in the settings. Any help would be very much appreciated to help with the sending and receiving of pictures messages.
It should display like this. I'm on O2 and it automatically downloaded the mms server settings when I turned the phone on

Thanks, yes thats the way it arrives, I have just discoverd something very weird, I turned on my wifi to do some stuff and all the picture messages were sent out. Im not sure why this is happening but it seems that if the phone is connected to wifi then my picture messages are going out but wont send on the mobile network alone. Very strange.

Yup. sounds about right. I'm on o2 and I have to disconnect my mobile internet to send/receive MMS messages, stupid!
I don't have to do this, PM me your MMS settings and i'll compare them to mine.
have you guys gotten around the user-agent based problem where O2 resizes all incoming mms to 160x120?
It's infuriating
Strange, I have to turn off my WiFi to send them. Lol.

No not yet, I did try bypassing O2's proxy by using the bypass username but that seemed to stop the messages being delivered properly and I was getting the same effect as belfastbob, where you have do download them manually (and then that didn't even work!)
Back to square one now. Not sure what to do

Yeah I used the bypass proxy and whilst it worked occasionally (and at much higher speeds than I normally get too), it caused all manner of problems with accessing mobile web
I think there are only two ways to get around this:
Hack the htc message app to provide a fake user agent
or
Phone O2 customer service a lot and complain until they get off their dumb asses and add a filter in their mms servers to recognise the hero (probably a 2 minute job)
I haven't phoned yet, but I plan on doing that tomorrow.

These are the settings that the Hero picked up automatically, with the searches I have done they seem to be correct, unless someone else knows different ones.
Thanks for all the imput from everyone.

I assume you know why they are grainy? (and are putting up with it so you can get MMS)
How massively irritating... after updating to the new ROM I have to turn off mobile internet to send MMS messages too. Arrrrgh!!
FIXED!!!
I wrote over the ROM with the original, unedited 2.73.405.5 ROM provided by Modaco
Forgot to do a wipe, but all seems ok
Still using the same updated radio (63.18.55.06EU_6.35.06.18)
Can now send MMS without having to disable mobile data
(Still low resolution due to O2, but other networks should be fine)
Just an update for those interested... I rang O2 about the small MMS images, and got quite a helpful chap who emailed the customer feedback team about getting the Hero's credentials inputted onto the O2 MMS server.
I don't live in hope of a fix for this yet, but if enough O2 Hero users tell them about the problem, hopefully they will do something about it. It can't be a difficult or time comsuming job surely...
Hi Kadison, I took your advise and installed the Generic 2.73.405.5 enhansted rom and as like yourself I can now sent and receive mms picture messages as per nomal. I glad that this has sorted the matter out but I hope that paul will have a look at this as I really liked using the 2.2 rom. So much for thinking that it was a vodafone problem.

thank you every1 for your help.
using the above sttings i have finally got the mms to work. however i do have to stop normal data and then download mms and the re activate the data. got a widget set-up on home page to do this. same for when sending. need o2 to sort out the 2kb receiving now
and also anyway we can send larger pics. currently hero re sizes/compresses to around 25k. we have up to 300k to send. seems just unfair
wonder if paul at modaco.com can, in any way, address these issue in next rom updates?
that's both for higher sending pic size and also receiving. we need to spoof o2 in believing we have another phone supported by them like xda orbit 2 and not a htc hero
I can receive mms but there is a download button in the mms... once i click on it, it downloads it but i dont know where it is stored... help
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.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
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.
I'm also on a $10 data plan with T-Mobile and this is what I have;

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.

MMS works for that settings, and I can't test 3G coz it's not on my plan..
So after the 2.1 update I keep on getting failed sent messages. I looked around and called my carrier as well and they say that the 2.1 update disabled "sms queuing".
Does anyone else have the same problem?
Does anyone know some sort of fix for this?
I'm having the same problem, really annoying. Switching to handcent has done nothing to fix it.
Yeh same I tried Chomp Handcent and Go sms. None of them were helpful.
Handcent was the only one that made it easy to fix and resend failed sms.
Think it's a problem with 2.1 my wife had this issue with her htc legend before the 2.2 upgrade...

I have 2 vibrants that I have running Nero v5, tonight one of them stopped getting data signal. Could not access internet but could make calls and text. I could not figure it out so I called t-mobile to see if they had some tips for me. We went thru some trouble shooting and tried putting my sim card into the other phone that was working fine. Now neither one will get a data connection. I have full service but no data. Use packet data and data roaming are checked. APN is t-mobile US epc.tmobile.com. Can someone please help me?
Where do you live, because I suddenly dropped data too. I'm in MPLS, MN
I am in Oklahoma City, OK. One of my phone was working fine but the other was not. Then when I switched sim card to the other phone now it wont get the connection either, even after I switched the sim cards back to original phone now they both don't get data
dallas, tx same thing just happened to me.......
Yeah I just checked my gf's Optimus T and her data is working fine. No idea.
Anyone have any idea what is going on or how to fix it? I need internet on my phone

I am trying to get an AT&T global sim to work, which ive been told should work...but for text and talk only, no data. This is fine, text and talk is all i need.

With the sim in the work phone, im currently in Melbourne, Australia and picking up Vodafone. Texts and calls work fine. When i put the sim in my S4, the furthest i can get is to the Available Networks screen and it shows vodafone AU and Telstra Mobile.

Contact whomever sold you the SIM and ask them for the APN. Many carriers use the AT&T network and affiliates but don't use AT&T APNs.
When I bought a global SIM, the carrier provided me their APN details. Even though it uses the AT&T network, it's not an AT&T APN.
Ya I tried all their settings to no avail. I ended up just breaking down and buying a local sim. Bummer not having a US number but using whatsapp for texting and it works out.
