Unable to send attachments via SMS

---

Hi all,

Got my HD2 yesterday and have been busy doing the various tweaks, regedits etc and so far so good.

However ive run into my first real problem. I cannot bluetooth data to my wifes phone and i also cannot send sms with audio or video attachments.

I get a dialling connection popping up advising that its trying to dial from "mobile" and i have an option to "dismiss" but the message keeps popping up until i finally get a message saying that the original sms failed to send.

I can send normal sms and emails fine. Just sms with file attachments fail me.

Any ideas?

BTW im with o2!

Sms with file attachment, do you mean maybe MMS?

LMAO yeah sorry!

Not got my brain engaged today!

its probably something to do with the MMS settings. check with your network make sure they're correct. Its rare, but sometimes a network will change settings and HTCs defaults will be out of date.

As for bluetooth, try pairing the devices using a simple 4 numerical password, complex passwords can be incompatible with some devices. Also try reversing which device is host/visible....I hate bluetooth sometimes

Think i have the settings from another site.

Now ive no idea where to go on my hd2 to input all the settings?

Anyone give me a pointer as to where i configure the mms?

Tut tut, no-one ever reads the manual anymore

One trick you could try (assuming you can connect to the internet over the phone) is update the database of settings on the phone. Scroll over to the settings menu > Wireless Controls > Data Connection, Make sure you have the correct country and network selected already. If so click Menu > Update Database> Update Database. Reboot your phone and see if it works.

Ok assuming that didn't work and you still having MMS problems you can check your MMS settings by scrolling over to the SMS/MMS menu > All Messages>Menu>Settings>Options>Menu>MMS Server. Select the server you want to use or make a new server, you can input your MMS settings in there.

I have the following config in my mms settings for o2:

Server name: 02 active MMS
IP address: 193.113.200.195
Port No: 8080
Server address: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
Connect via; o2 active
Send limit: 300KB
WAP Version: WAP 2.0

When i try and send an mms the following happens:

Popup box saying:

Cannot connect

Dialed:

Cannot connect for an unknown reason (then loads of other txt)

and then 2 options at the bottom a blue "settings" link and a "dismiss" option.

When i click on settings it takes me to a connections menu where i the following options:

My work network:

Add a modem connection
Add a new vpn server connection
setup my proxy server
Manage existing connections

and then 2 tabs at the bottom for tasks and advanced.

I've got exactly the same settings as you, and it just worked for me. Check with O2 - they may have a problem at their end, or something switched off for you.

Well ive got a 16gb card coming this week so once i get that im going to do a hard reset and set everything up properly (just been messing so far) and then see what happens. If not then ill phone o2.

I forgot to mention that i inputted those settings but in the "connect via:" drop down menu i have no option for "o2 active"

I just have work network, mms network, home network etc.

Did you try letting the phone set up your connection settings for you, as suggested by jagnet?
