Lumia 520 MMS on H20?

[Steve_in_US]

I'm in the process of switching phone companies AND phones. I bought a H2O sim to try in my OLD nokia e63 and got internet/mms setup and working fine. After reading the Lumia 520 works on H20 I bought one today. No matter what I do I cannot get the MMS to work. Internet is working fine.

Does anyone have a working MMS configuration for the 520 on H20? I tried one I found for the 920, but still nothing. H2O support is no help.

Try this APN- att.mvno ,username and pass leave it blank ,WAP Gateway url -proxy.mvno.H2OMobileweb.com Wap Gateway Port - 80, MMS url - http://mmsc.cingular.com/ and in MMSCport -80

Thank you, but those don't work either. The only difference was that I assume had the IP address of the WAP gateway. Tried the proxy.mvno.H2OMobileweb.com with no luck.

Worked with H2O tech support and they have no idea either. That's why I'm hoping someone has it working on their phone.

Emnuel, those setting are working on a Lumia520 with h20? My old nokia e63 works just fine but no matter what I or H2O support puts in MMS does not work.

***Update***

Even though I checked for updates over the weekend and installed them, there was a boatload of pending updates on my phone this morning. One of them was for Access Point. I let the updates run and after they were done I rebooted. When it came back on I sent a MMS to my workphone. It worked!!!!

Thanks for your help everyone. Turns out it was a phone issue.

For the next person who googles upon this solution...Don't use the "Cellular" to set the internet/mms apn. Download and use Access Point. I got that from the 920 thread. I tried both and it still does not work using the "Cellular" settings.

That's good to know. Nokia should do an update and have this added to the settings, or it should be on Windows Phone 8 by default. Not many people would know about this. Most of us would assume going to "cellular" under settings would be the place to configure for other MVNO's.
