I have a MMS issue with my Xperia x10i using T-Mobile USA.
before the 2.1 update from 1.6, I could still receive a good quality-sized pictures via MMS. after the official 2.1 update, all I get was tiny-sized pictures and it pissed me off.
I was able to fix this problem with APNdroid before. But it's been a while.
I recently had to do a factory reset on my x10.
Now the same problem occur and though I downloaded APNdroid 2.1, I tried messing with the settings:
main "ON/OFF" button for the 3G/EPRS/GPRS, and checkmarks for
1) MMS enable/disable
2) Display Notification
3) Disable All APNs
I couldn't fix the issue any longer.
If someone could tell me exactly how to set the APNdroid to work, or if there is any other way, please help.
P.S. I did try downloading the MMS settings via Sony Ericsson (Settings->Sony Ericsson->Settings Download-> T-mobile). It didn't work. I don't know what to do with the Access Point Names in the Wireless & network settings-> Mobile network settings.
P.P.S. though it may be irrevelant, the USB pin is damage, so I can't sync or charge the phone via USB anymore. that's why I'm still on 2.1-update1. I'd only been using an external charger and some extra batteries using a microSD card reader to transfer files.

I bought my phone from Orange UK and unlocked the phone as I wanted to use my T mobile sim card. However I can't send or receive picture messages as I guess the phone is still using the wrong settings.
I have tried the HTC app but this did not solve the problem. Does anyone have any ideas?
Have you activated your data settings?
I can browse the internet fine, is there another setting for mms anywhere?
You would need to go into HTC HUB and download an app called Connection Setup and that will fix and configure your APN settings
Atm you cannot enter the apn for mms.. By installing the Connection Setup it will configure it for you
Hello need some help if anybody has an idea about my problem.
I bot O1 from UK lock free with froyo 2.2.1 on it. I tried to update it with lg software crap and bricked the phone. Than after some research downloaded KDZ and a room with froyo 2.2.2 which i installed. Unfortunately the room had all T-mobile crap which does dot really affect the work of the phone. All works fine but can not send MMS. Any idea or just wait for gingerbread and update?

Try the setting from https://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/wiki/APNlist .
For me i have to put in "APN type: default,supl" to work with my mobile provider in Singapore.
APN settings
It seems your APN settings are not properly configured.
Maybe you will find your APN settings here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=564459
Good luck!
Not working still. More ideas or just wait for the gingerbread update?

MMS
Is your data enabled while you send the MMS?
I have internet which means that data transfer works in 3G. My provider is vodafone AL.
When I try to send mms it changes from 3g to H and than does not send as returns to 3G.
It looks that I will have to wait for gingerbread. I do not want to root.
Hhhmmmnnn
It seems only your MMS setting is not properly configured.
Try installing Tweakker from the Market. Maybe it can help you.
Enjoy your phone while waiting for the GB update
Dunno, any decent operator should be able to send you the proper settings for MMS/Internet via a special SMS. You just open the SMS and are all set.
They tried by sms and i also went into one of their shops they did not understand why , just suggested a downgrade to 2.2.1 which i think with the GB near the corner was useless. Tweeaker did not work either.
However great phone for the price and love the battery life ( 2 straight days but using task killer and android booster)
Hi all,
Long time reader & proud owner of the ST15 (upgraded from the X10 Mini!!).
I'm unable to use data via the mobile network as I cannot save an APN configuration.
I have tried:
- creating a new APN with all the correct details, but when I hit save...it doesnt show up in Access Point Names...(saves it in a hidden menu).
I did however download an APN off/on app via wifi which actually showed all the apn configs I can not see in Access Point Names...when I turn the access point ON via this app/widget the data still does not work :'(
- I have also tried a factory restore on the handset and also applied the firmware via the SE deskstop software to no avail.
Any further suggestions? When I get back home I'm going to root it
- I have also tried to obtain the settings from the Sony Ericsson > Internet Settings submenu to no avail with+without WiFi.
(apologies for the double post, got an error saying not enough characters...).
What model is yours? St15i or st15a? Who is your carrier? Correct me if i missed anything.
Sent from my SK17a using XDA App
Model is ST15i (is there a difference between ST15 & ST15i??), carrier is in AU, handset bought from HK/China(?)
Australia uses 850 don't they? maybe depends on carrier. If you have sk17i, that covers 900/2100 band wich i dont think telstra (popular in au) cover at all. Are you with telstra?
To comment further the mini comes in either i (international) or a (america) has far as i know.

Hi All
I found the fix..
talk.sonyericsson.com/message/96845
I disabled Lock SIM card, then obtained the settings via Sony Ericsson > Internet Settings submenu and it worked.
I have re-enabled Lock SIM card and all is well
Awesome glad it'd work for ya cheers
Sent from my SK17a using XDA App
This is a problem that stems from very specific types of SIM cards (no, not all SIM cards are equal! )
The only known fix so far is the one ST15 found: Disabling SIM card PIN request (and should you need to, enabling it after the APN's have been added).
Well done for solving your own problem
I have same problem with xperia mini pro sk17i, firmware 4.0.A.2.335. APN not saved when sim pin is enebled, when sim pin is disabled all is ok

I have never been able to get into Sony Ericsson > Internet Settings, it says it will download the setting but then a connection error message shows up, even if I'm on 2G/3G which works fine with other apps Is there any workaround for me?

Fixed
Had same problem and fix it by turning sim pin of and then ordering internet parameters from provider. After delivering there vas no apn memorized in phone, so i turn it of and turn it on...THATS IMPORTANT IF YOU WANT APN PROFILE TO Be MEMORIZED IN MOBILE. If you dont have automatic delivery from provider, you make manualy your own internet profile with APN and then turn of phone and turn it on. That helped me...hope help you to...
yeah. this happens to on my mini pro. even after downloading the settings on se>settings>internet
Hi folks.
So I've got a Lumia 800, SIM-free from phones4u. I've tried the following to get my MMS working. Note everything else on the phone works fine.
Cut my PAYG O2 sim card to micro sim, booted up phone (first boot), set APN settings etc.
Doing a complete phone reset.
Getting a replacement microsim for O2.
Doing another complete phone reset.
I've bounced between O2 and Nokia's customer support lines a few times to no avail.
Texting the O2 number (2020) to get MMS settings sent to my phone. It errors.
So I have three questions.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?
Is there a way to force it into the right MMS settings?
Is Nokia's Network Setup application on the way after the secruity flaw that got it unpublished? Any indication when it might be out?
Sorry if any of this is a stupid question. A friend suggested you guys might be able to help.
Got the same problem and I believe everybody with sim free Nokia's experiencing the same problem.
There's no way to change the MMS settings. We need to wait for Nokia to release the app.
It's a bit annoying though.
Lumia 800 on O2 Ireland here as well and MMS is not working. I was expecting this as MMS on my existing HD7 would not work either without running the Connection Setup software provided by HTC.
I'm hoping the Network Setup software will be back soon on the Marketplace(and will actually include O2 Ireland in the settings).
Although my lumia seems ok with mms on tmobile uk, my wifes Mozart wont send or recieve mms at all i have tried everything. As HTC used to have a setup app before they removed it (dunno why its needed) im sure it can be setup by software.
Hi,
Nokia released the Network Setup App again. The only flaw is, I can't seem to find the app in Marketplace. BUT: go to this thread and follow the link in the first post on your phone.
My data connection now works perfectly, but MMS still does not work
Happy to report that USA T-Mobile Lumia 800 sending MMS perfectly.. after reading this thread, I tested this and my coworker got the photo I sent just fine. Didn't even take that long to send (T-Mobile USA restricts Lumia 800 to 2G Edge)
Thanks zoidinger - this got me the app. Annoyingly I now can't seem to actually make it *do* anything. I can select between O2 UK 1, O2 UK2, and tesco mobile, but no matter what it always ends up set to "O2 UK 1" iff I change it, go out and come back in again.
I'll have a play around today when I get the chance and see if I can get anywhere.

The Connection Setup app doesn't exist anymore on Marketplace or what? Because I had a Mozart before and to fix the MMS config I downloaded that app, ran it and then it worked.
BTW: I also got MMS to work on my Lumia yesterday with the Network Setup app. Here's how I did to get it to work:
1. I ran the app
2. Removed the app
3. Turned the phone off
4. Removed the sim card
5. Started the phone
6. Turned it off again
7. Reinserted the sim card
8. Turned it on again.
Now it works!
Right after playing around I got it working!
It was some combination of the following, in various different orders:
Playing with the Network Setup app
Removing the APN settings
Re-adding the APN settings
Rebooting the phone
Thanks so much for the trick to get the Network Setup app!

Unfortunately, that does not seem to work for me. I tested MMS with another phone. It worked instantly. I also checked the MMS settings inside the XAP from Nokia and they seem correct. Don't know what to do else...
The problem affects only branded firmware. Solution:
1. Open Internet Explorer on your phone.
2. We go to the following address: goo.gl/l5vi2
3. Click on the link "Zune Link" in the first post at the top.
4. Install the application.
5. Remove APN manually typed in the phone settings, if any we have (Settings-> Mobile Network-> Edit APN).
6. Run the application, wait a while and we have configured the phone.
7. Close the application.
Here is updated link for Network Setup from Nokia
I had to call Nokia as the previous links in threads did not work. they gave me updated link and I ran the app, power-cycled and sent MMS with no errors on phone. Please make sure you remove any APN settings before running the app, reboot after it detects your carrier. Enjoy, I hope this helps.The forum won't let me post a URL, you can email me directly [email protected] for link and maybe someone can post it
Hi
I recently received a replacement handset from Orange due to a cracked screen.
During Hurricane Bawbag we had a power cut, but as I still had signal and laptop battery I decided to use wireless tethering. I could connect to the phone but could not receive any data. I also tried wired tethering and got the same result. I have no problems receiving data on the phone itself.
With my previous x10 tethering worked fine, it was debranded to generic UK. I'm not sure if this is why it worked? I'm out of contract now and due an upgrade from Orange. When they get a phone I want, I will be giving the x10 to a friend so I would rather not mess about debranding it again.
Anyone know of a solution to this problem without debranding?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Tris
you should search the forums before posting, but anyway...
yeah, orange added a new APN..
the existing APN's were "orangeinternet" used for your mobile data...
and "orangemms" used for MMS messages...
the additional APN now included is "consumerbroadband" which is automatically used when tethering, either via wifi or usb, but orange only allows data through this APN if you purchase a tethering bundle....
the work around for this is easy, u just need to edit the consumerbroadband APN and change it to oranngeinternet settings, so tethering will work as if it was your phone....
recent orange branded handsets do not allow you to edit these settings, but if this is the case, just hit menu and "add APN" and create another APN with the same settings and it will work..
settings can be found here...
