Orange - Sending or receiving photos when abroad

[tandfi]

Just got an 820 and find I can't receive or send photographs when out of the country. It's on an Orange contract. Can anybody help?

I've moved it to carrier discussion. This is probably where you need to contact Orange and make sure you've got data roaming on. You need data for MMS sending and receiving. If your data roaming isn't on by default MMS might not work. Also under settings - cellular/network settings - enable data when roaming. It's a drop down list.

I imagine it will be a silly price to mms from abroad. I prefer to find wifi and then send via whatsapp etc. You will pay MMS price plus data usage if you send the regular way.

It is also worth calling orange to see if the country you are going to, and the network you use have the agreement with orange to support mms.
