i have t-mobile samsung galaxy s vibrant unlocked to use on my carrier viaero wireless and evertime i try to send a mms is shows anonymous only on mms messages. Anyone have any ideas i contacted my carrier since they sell the I9000 galaxy s and they have the same issue on some of the handsets not all and they told me it might be a firmware issue but they have froyo on all of them,also they said since the phone wont work when u setup 2 apns 1 for mms 1 for internet that could be the issue.
i have a bit of a problem with 3G data and mms. in original stock 2.1 from SE i can disable 3G data, but that will not turn off MMS sending and receiving.
however, in most froyo, including in CM6-final. this is not possible. we have to enable both 3G data to get mms to work. however... i dont have a 3G data plan, and it can be very expensive .............
here are some facts that i have tried out:
1. using SE stock 2.1, it is possible to disable 3G data but still receive send mms
2. using SE stock 2.1, it is possible to have only 1 APN for mms without other types (default, supl), but still receive send mms
3. it is a froyo bug, based on things i found on the internet
4. some brand such samsung motorola, have patched it
5. i tried to set up different APN for mms (mms) and 3G (degault,supl). still can not do mms without 3G data
6. i set up only 1 APN for mms... it doesnt work
7. different APN for mms and 3G data, send an mms to myself, works, and then i delete APN for 3G data. now mms can work with only mms APN. and i dont have 3G data activity at all. but after restart. can not work again
anyone, any idea how to get the mms working without enabling 3G data?
ok. thank you
cheers

this is exactly what i was trying to explain
btw, i tried to use SMART APN apk. but it doesnt help
i am using x10 mini pro on owain CM-6 final
Anyone ..?
i know it might not be important to some. but here, where i live, i could get charge with something like 2000 USD if i am not being carefull with my data usage....
i really need mms to work, without having to enable data for web. just 3G for mms only...coz i can not text sms to other operator, must use mms. sms is locked inter operator only
perhaps this might help u

thanx man!
unfortunately, i tried that in my step 6 above
"6. i set up only 1 APN for mms... it doesnt work"
it won`t connect. saying data service unavailable... the only way i can get mms to work is by "fishing" 3G data using 2 APN, and then delete APN for internet, leaving MMS alone. still, after i reboot, i get data service unavailable and have to "fish" again.

i assumed that u followed the instructions word by word rite?
personally, i'm not using 3G connection, i only use 2G and my service operator won't charge any excess fee if i leave my connection on..so i can't really help much
i just happen to saw that thread and i thought that might do some help to u..
Yup
Thanks. I really appreciate it. I can not use 2g here in japan. All network services are in 3g. No more 2g.
Oot a bit, it was quiet amazing for me, as a foreigner, in sendai that during the earthquake, 3g data service are fully operasional at full speed eventhough we hno gas water and all.
Anyway, I finally found the answer.
I installed quick settings from market (they have several app with that name, i use the one by sergej shafarenka). Use it to disable mobile data.get mms, with not 3g internet.
it wasnt my idea too to be honest. Someone post it in an old thread for samsung galaxy. I ran in to it accidentally today. Fiuuuhhhh...now I would not have to worry anymore
Could someone on O2 post their combined internet and MMS settings please? When I first got the device they were combined in a single APN but with my various flashes I have ended up losing it.
Cheers.
Ignore, got them from elsewhere.
Hey, I recently got a international samsung gs II and i didn't grab a data plan yet and i wanna know is there another way to receive mms?
Not proper MMS, no. MMS is linked to your phone number on your carrier. If I remember correctly, MMS can only be downloaded over packet data, not over WiFi (most likely due to some authentication routine). If you want to exchange photos/whatever, use email/Facebook/etc. until you grab a data plan.

I have a phone (Huawei Honor 6X; posting in this forum because no one in that forum answered + this seems to be a non-device specific issue, so just hit me up with ideas) on T-Mobile that can use data, can receive MMS, and can send/receive texts, but cannot *send* MMS/picture texts. APN settings are as they should be for T-Mobile (although if anyone wants to post their T-Mo APN settings for their GSM unlocked phone, please do) but it's not working. Any ideas?
