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?
How do everyone...
I've got a pink Hero from mobiles.co.uk for my girlfriend (really it is for my girlfriend) and I'm having the strangest issue with MMS on it.
If I send a message to myself, it sends it fine and receives it fine.
If I send it to another phone, it sends fine and the person receives it fine.
However, If I get one sent to my phone from another phone, it wont receive it.
I just can't understand why, is there anyone here who can actually receive MMS messages from someone else who is on Vodafone?
I haven't bothered posting my APN settings just in case its a known issue but I will do if some people can send messages. I'm on Modaco 2.6 too.
Cheers
Nobody on Vodafone here and tried to send an MMS?
Come on, let us know if you can or can't... be helpful
same here
my Hero was receiving mms ok, then just stopped cant receive any now, on vodafone cant seem to find out why, starting to annoy me, no bluetooth and now no mms why did i buy this peice of sh** aarrgghh
at my local (AUSTRALIA) virgin/optus/vodafone store he has a magic vodafone & i have a hero optus & we were testing this as i was setting up my MMS & all worked ok

having the same trouble on my Hero.
UK vodafone, using MCR 2.2 ROM (will update soon!), MMS worked pre uprgade, but now does not. Tried all sorts of APN settings.
Hi all, has anyone been able to get a custom rom that has ArcSoft installed on it to send out MMS messages? I have been running ryans rom for a few months and just recently had to send out a MMS. I thought this crap was fixed by now.
Needless to say the recipient didn't get the MMS and then I tried to email to a gmail account via mms and same deal nothing showed up.
Guys after a crack load of reading old threads I finally found the fix. This is the fix for sprint users.
Go here http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.php?p=1614154&postcount=18
use Remove PictureMail & Arcsoft.cab (then reboot)
Then install the JD Arcsoft 5.2.1.22.cab. Now when you go into your SMS you will not see MMS but instead you will see Picture Mail. I had to adjust nothing else as this solution enabled me to send pictures no problem.
This is without doubt the most hassle I have ever had setting up picture messaging.
Ok here goes..
I'm with T-Mobile UK, I have called them up and asked to have MMS capability turned on to which they said all I needed to do was send an MMS and it would automatically enable it for me. I checked my APN settings to make sure they were good to go and went for it.
Sending.....
I don't have a very good signal so at first I thought that might have been the issue. I hung about for an hour or so though, making some funny shapes etc trying to get a sign of the MMS sending.
Sending.....
I trawled the internet looking for any settings that I may have missed out. Meanwhile I found a window where the signal was OK (3bars). I searched my entire lunchbreak until I found that the Galaxy SII doesn't have any support from T-Mobile regarding MMS settings so you need to go directly to the Samsung support page. I had the MMS settings configuration file sent and installed.
Sending.....
I deleted the file that was apparently "sending" and started from scratch. Watched it for a good 10 mins.
Sending....
I turned on the data on my phone, so that I could check the internet and low and behold it sent.
What is going on? Is this normal behaviour for the Galaxy? Any and all MMS compatible phones I have ever had my hands on automatically enable data in order to send and recieve MMS pictures. I made sure that the auto recieve function was on as I couldn't believe what I had witnessed. The Desire that I had before the Galaxy worked fine on it's own, I only needed to actually enable the data connection properly when I wanted to browse the internet or check my email.
Is this the case or have I missed something? Seems like a massive mistake from Samsung if that is the case.
Any help would be appreciated... if it's needed
Anyone? Really annoying this lol.
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..
Sent @ 04:20
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.
