Having trouble receiving MMS on my Lumia 920 on Telus, anyone else?

[Kevin MacKinnon1]

Hey everyone, I am new here and have just switched over from an Iphone 4 to my first WP8. So far I am loving it except for the fact that I am having trouble receiving MMS pictures. I was having problems before where I couldn't send or receive but I messed around with the APN settings and am finally able to send pictures but I am still having problems receiving pictures. It comes up in my messages saying "get media content now (then the size of the file)" but when I click it to download it shows like it is d/ling but then go backs to the "get media content now". I have used Access Point and manually entered the APN from TELUS, I tried sending a picture to myself as stated in other threads on here but still with no luck. Any ideas from somewhere out there. I am using a Unlocked Rogers branded phone on TELUS' network. Thanks

Have you disabled MMS and iMessage on your iPhone? http://forums.windowscentral.com/nokia-lumia-920/202151-imessage-issue.html

I have tried disabling iMessage and MMS on my old iPhone with no luck as of yet. I will let you know if this changes.

Install Access Point (access point | Windows Phone Apps+Games Store (United States)) and select Telus. You may have to go to that link on your phone browser. Just google Access Point windows phone and it should be the first one on the list. Delete your other apn settings in the original network settings. Fixed my mms and let me use internet sharing.

I just thought I'd chime in with my own experience in case anyone else comes across this thread while searching. I also have a Rogers-branded Lumia 920 that I unlocked and moved over to Telus. After initially trying to set the Internet and MMS APN settings manually with only partial success, I came across this article (and others) that suggested I use the Access Point app. After deleting all the manual settings I plugged in and getting Access Point setup, I can report that everything works perfectly - LTE, Internet Sharing, and sending & receiving MMS messages.

I heard from a friend of mine that there was a bug in the Access Point app a couple of months ago which caused a lot of people issues. A subsequent update has apparently resolved these issues.

I had same experience. Got SMS+photo, and internet sharing, working by using Access Point (delete old settings, switch to new).

A WP OS update sometime in February has broken all that. This time, Access Point jiggery-pokery is not helping.

Any other Telus Lumia 920 users who have internet sharing working? (& are you sure it's *still* working?) What are your settings?

Thanks for any tips.
