Why can I send but not receive picture messages?

Can send but not receive picture messages

Have t-mobile and bought an unlocked Nokia Lumia 928 (Verizon phone). I have the correct APN URL and settings and can send picture messages, but can't receive any. Get MMS error 226. Saw several posts on this but nothing is helping me.

Re: Can send but not receive picture messages

That is new. I have had a few phones that wouldn't allow to send or receive photos, but never just one or the other.

Does sound like your phone isn't recognizing the file. I did a quick Bing search, and came up with a cople of threads on community help sites which may be of help:

Mobile Community - Verizon Nokia Lumia 928 can't receive MMS but can ... - Microsoft Mobile Community

Edit Lumia 928 APN Setting - Microsoft Community

Put it in EDGE/2G only mode and it might work. Thank Verizon for sabotaging the APN MMS settings.
