MMS not working after AKU2 Upgrade on 8125

[acaciolo]

As a newbie, I shocked myself that the rom upgrade went so smoothly! Push email is working great with 4smartphone, and the 8125 flies!

I installed a few of the original .cabs (smartdial, mms, edge icon) but I cannot get mms to work.

I had no MMS account option until I installed the MMS cab, but since then the account is there and I receive MMS messages no problem...except for 1 thing:

When the messages arrive, they download what appears to be the attachment, but the icon shows as a vertical black box attached to the message, and I cannot open the picture at all. I can redownload no problem...but the picture won't appear.

Also..the phone keeps trying to redownload the picture every couple of minutes.

Any ideas? Is there another cab I need to install?

thanks.



I am 99% sure I have the settings correct, as they were taken from c

problem is you installed Cingular's cabs on a new rom. Which rom are you using anyway? can't post too much information, but as you have, you can always post too little.

I am using the newer Qtek rom on my 8125 and mms works great. it also worked great on the Imate 2.16.9.1 ROM. But I just installed the default titled roms from the Imate and allowed the customization to happen for the Qtek. Then manually configured MMS Server as the MMS account was there after running the new cabs.

I am using the new ROM but I do not use MMS, howver I will note that QTEK's EXT rom has MMS cabs, I would advise doing a hard reset and letting the QTEK EXT Rom run. I couldn't find ANYTHING in the EXT that would be unwanted (*except MMS for me since I dont use it, but I still let it install, meh.) I don't know if I can send MMS with my current plan, I have unlimited internet but no sms plan or mms plan as far as I know... can I send and receive MMS? If so I will test it for you.

you would get charged for sending them, I think 15 or 25 cents per message... but no need... I am using the Qtek ROM 2.17.7.2 allowed it to run the customization (ie all EXTRom cabs installed) and after I setup the MMS server it worked fine. Send and Receive.

Some people want to be notified that they are on EDGE and if you don't want to make a simple reg edit (change a 0 to a 1) then you can use the Cingular EXT Rom that sets the EDGE icon.

LOL, I thought the cab file had the ICON inside... care to share the registry value it changes? I liek making my own changes. =)

Thanx; Lew

well...it seems I got it working.

I downloaded the newest imate released aku2 rom and reflashed the phone with it (after unlocking, etc.) As per everyones instructions, I hit the soft reset when it asked for the carrier so I didn't get any of the customization.

I then installed a few of the cingular cabs (mms, edge icon, smart dialer) and everything worked perfectly...except mms.

I found a thread at howard where someone had the same problem, and I found that I also needed to install 2 other cingular cabs. sms. and something with EON in it. After I did that, MMS worked perfectly.

so...as of now...the phone is flying (even with the few cingular cabs I installed.) no lockups, push email is working great.

keeping my fingers crossed. If I start having some problems, I will take your advice and hard reset. Until then...it is working very very well....mainly because of all the help and tips I got on this forum!
