MMS on T-Mobile?

[boredinclass]

There was an update for wireless manager, anyone know if this can help with the mms issue

 

[thelastfoiter]

I no longer have an MMS issue! But if you do, then I'd say go for the update and try it. Good luck.

okay.. the following worked for me -

1. In Wireless Manager app, go to apn -> edit apn
2. Click on the "mms_line" option to edit. If this option does not exist/you deleted it, create one using the '+' button at the bottom. Recreating the mms_line apn filled in the default AT&T values for me. Ignore those for now. Also, the name should be "mms_line". My phone wouldn't recognize any other name as a MMS profile.
3. Under the edit screen, provide the MMSC as http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
4. As xs2k mentioned, it will complain about the value being too long, ignore it (press ok twice to accept the value until the entire string is in there)
5. Give APN as epc.tmobile.com and Save. Leave the rest as is.
6. I left the "Automatic APN" unchecked.

Voila!! things are working now

Going back to the mms_line apn shows the mmsc value revert to the AT&T url, but that has not stopped MMS from working for me

HTH folks! Good luck

Thank you for the information, this worked for me.

All everyone has to do is clicking 'OK' button when the Wireless Manager app says the address is too long.

The address that is being input does get recorded even though the app says it is too long.

Good Luck.

hi guys none of this is working for me how lame...

i deleted apns here and there and not sure what is default anymore.

Can anyone please take a screen shot of all your apn settings so i can copy it and get this to work?

Thank you so much whoever that can help! i need my mms driving me mad

Hm. I have an unlocked Focus S on Bell Canada, and when I first got the device, MMS worked fine. However, after installing Tango/Samsung LE2, I can't get it working anymore, following any of these suggestions.

**** you, Samsung.

Ideas?

Hey guys,

Check my post HERE to see if this is any help.

Vote for this feature in the next update from windows 7.8! Here: APN and MMS

 

[Alonso Martinez]

If you havent unlocked you phone by now just call att theyd be happy to give you the code for free and avoid all the drama. Of having to pay wait for your code and might not even work and the phone will locked completed.

What xs2k said actually works. Follow these directions. I know when you go to fill in the MMSC it will tell you that you have too many characters but thats fine. Just hit the ok button twice. Then the letter that you typed before will still be typed. You have to do this for all of the leftover letters.
1.Go to the Marketplace, tap “Samsung Zone”, and download “Wireless Manager”
2.Once that’s installed, open the Wireless Manager app
3. Go to the “apn” screen, and tap “edit apn”
4.Push the “+” button at the bottom
5. Fill out the data as follows: (any fields that I didn’t mention should be left at the defaults)
6. APN Name: MMS
7. Profile Category: MMS
8. MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
9. APN:wap.voicestream.com
10. Auth type: none
11. Proxy address:216.155.165.50
12. Proxy port:8080
13. Click the checkmark button on the toolbar

If for some reason this doesn't work you may have to manually put some other settings in if its an unlocked phone. Try going to your home page, then to settings, then to cellular. Under cellular make sure that your data connection is on and under "data roaming options" select roam. Then go to edit apn. If you have t-mobile the APN slot should read: epc.tmobile.com
If it doesn't then write that in. All other fields ( including username passworkd, proxy sevice/url, and proxy port) should be left blank. I'm not sure if this matters but it was also suggested to have your wifi turned off when sending a picture.

If for some reason this still doesn't work you may be missing another apn. I'm not actually sure if this does anything but I have it on my phone and its working. If your phone already works then I wouldn't worry about it. But if it doesn't then..

1. Go into wireless manager
2. Go to edit apn then hit the +
3. APN name: internet_line
4. Profile catagory: select internet (always on)
5. APN: pta
6. Auth type: none
7. Leave ALL other fields blank
8. Hit the checkmark

It will bring you back to your apn list. The apns that I have listed now are MMS, internet_line, and another APN that has a long list of letters (this is the result of going into settins-cellullar-edit apn ect. that you did earlier). I can't give you the exact list of letters because it is different per phone. ( but if you want to make sure that its the one I'm talking about you shouldn't be able to delete it if you try. It will say that you have to go to settings cellular and change it) Any other apns I have deleted. So you should have those three. Try sending a picture message and see if it worked out. This worked for both me and my sisters phones. We both have t-mobile and are using an unlocked AT&T samsung focus 2. Hope things work for you This is all of the setting informationthat I know of that could help

I finally got mms sending to work, though not using the methods described here. The following apns should be created using wireless manager...btw, I do not have a data plan...
open wireless manager
do not check automatic apn

press edit apn
3 apns will be created (or edited)...
first one;

apn name T-mobileUS
profile cat. mms
mmsc- use the long one mentioned here in this thread http://mms.msg.blahblah ending in/wapenc
apn- epc.tmobile.com
proxy address 216.155.165.50
proxy port 8080
rest blank

second one
apn name mms_line
profile cat. mms
mmsc long address again
apn- epc.tmobile.com
proxy 215.155.165.050 (notice extra 0 in front of 50)
port 8080
rest blank

third apn

apn name softap_line
profile cat- internet (always on)
apn- epc.tmobile.com
auth none
proxy 216.155.165.50
proxy port 8080
rest blank

fourth apn is not editable (is that a word?)

Cheers, hope it works for you...nothing else worked for me.

So I got it to work yesterday! Thanks guys! Worked all day all night.
Today, it's not working??
What could have possibly happened? Thanks.

 

[erlymorninbuzz]

I have tried everything and this worked.

I have a Samsung Focus 2 on walmarts family mobile had to trim the sim to get that working.

Now its all good Thanks..

 

[Santiago Acosta1]

Internet and regular text work fine but mms doesnt.

nicolealexa (post #53), I've been restlessly searching for the cure to my lack of media sendage, and this worked!!! I had literally given up hope, and was mentally shopping for new phones. Hallelujah thank you so so so so much!!!

Side note, I didn't have to + , I just edited the current mms_line.

Thanks again, you're a peach!!:kiss::grincry::smile:
