hey i have put windows mobile 6.5 v10 of nsfn i can no longer receive picture messages, i know the bell htc vogue was never capable of sending/reciving but it would send you a text with a link to a site that stored the picture/video/sound file to download on to the phone. And also, does anyone know a decent free alternative to the msn messenger that comes with the phone as bell charges 8 bucks a month to use it, i would like to drop it but cant stay on an online one like e buddy all the time,
thanks

I have never got this!? if I send a MMS from another bell Dumbphone I don't even get an text or alert... i do get tha url link to bells picture messaging site were i can see or copy tha file.. other then getting people to email pics to you just go to: http://mypictures.bell.ca you will need tha password to your picture account, if you don't have it or don't have a forgot or reset password option there bell can provide it ( if you get a half competent CS that is ) lol

are you talking about the "unlimited mobile internet" plan or unlimited Data? I got the fun 15 package (wich includes unlimited mobile internet) and so far, I haven't been charged for data while using "Internet apps" like weather, Garmin's options or web browsing. Havn't tried the MSN yet but I don't think i'd be charged neither
Probably the best plan you can get! ;)

If you are getting charged for things like weather and garmin, you must be using Bell services... because data is data.. unless your using their proprietary software. You shouldn't be getting charged for any data browsing the web especially.. either you misunderstand your plan, or Bell is screwing you.. Id look into that :D

Sorry i ment earlyer i Do get tha msg containing a URL link to an image sent to me if it is sent to my email.. never got that via sms.. get nothing..
and dont let bell tell you sh#t nothing costs to use on tha touch, unless you maybe download bell's content.... lol ANY bell rep can reset and or provide your picture messaging password or pin, its 4 digits.. i have mine somewere and my girlfriend logs in all tha time on tha 6800 to retreve her MMS's..... wen you get a retarded bell rep that cant help ask for a supervisor, wen they tell you you cant speak to one Dont back down, and demand a supervisor tells you that personally.. they cant refuse you, and if they cant resolve your request then they need to transfer you to someone that may... its not easy dealing with bell as they have to be tha most under trained reject CSRs of all tha canadian telecoms... im not gunna even get in to some of tha half brained things i had them telling me before..... thats why i try to never call them..
Edit: Sorry ONE app on tha touch may incure pay-per-use data fees not included in tha unlimited data option, "WModem" lol

you are right they are the worst ever i called them up first complained that i wasn't receiving them then they told me im not receiving them because it only supports phones with a built in camera and the htc touch does not have one.... well i lost it on his ass and the whole time i did i was looking right in to the camera lol.. anyways how did you get it set up so it goes to your email? i know that this problem is with the NFSFANs rom as when i went back to the stock rom i received them again found that out after i told off bell but meh shit happens so if you could post here or pm me how to get the notification sent to your email i would greatly appreciate it also as you said that nothing cost to use on the touch as long as u got the unlimited internet does this mean i can get rid of my texting bundle 2?
thanks

Agreed. However, I bet the rep knew exactly what he was doing. Trying to get you to stay with the $5 msn.
I abuse the hell out of my plan....I use my Slingbox like you wouldn't believe and people cant believe I don't pay more than $10 for unlimited data.

don't worry 90% of BELL reps are retarded!!!!I had a Bell rep in the store tell me that the Touch wasn’t a “true” Windows Mobile device and that is why I was able to get the $7/month unlimited mobile browser on it. But that it was not a “data device” and was a “browser only” device.
When I rebooted it showed him the “Windows Mobile” splash screen he got all hostile with me and said “look, your not going to believe me anyway so there is no sense in me trying to explain it to you”. I guess I am just too stupid to realize that I don’t have a “real” Windows Mobile device (even though I write Windows Mobile applications for a living). If it weren’t so amusing I might have been offended by his treatment of me.
