Confused with MMS

[MrSmith22]

Hi Guys, I've got this bugging question; How does MMS work? I've never been able to get mine to work and I am with O2 IK.

Someone sent me an MMS, it says to download but then it can't download, I imagine I need to put the UK settings in? But how does it download via GPRS or Wifi? Does it cost to receive MMS because I have so many in my inbox.


Lastly if I do need some setting would someone be kind enough to provide them please.

Thanks,

Smith.

I'm having exactly the same trouble and I have sent one correctly but still can't download ones sent to me. I have checked all settings as sent to me by e-mail from O2 customer support. Has anyone got mms working correctly?

Same problem here. O2 customer service said it hadn't been activated on my account, but would be done within 48 hours. That was a week ago.

I haven't looked into it any further, and suspected it would be simply a case of sorting out the settings on the phone.

O2 are a nightmare with MMS. When I first got my XDA on O2 and migrated from T-Mobile, it took numerous calls to get it working.

Every time I phoned up they said that MMS had been provisioned but whoever did it, did it wrong. They then promised to fix it and it would work in 24 hours.

This happened three or four times before it eventually worked.

Good Luck!
