MMS problems...

    Hi everyone.

    Having a bit of trouble sending and recieving mms messages.

    Am a meteor bill pay customer and have downloaded the settings a number of times.

    Its a motorola v3... I cant send mms's. I can browse wap no problem.
    Some people when they send them to me it comes up "download pic" - I've never seen that before, and even when I do it doesn't work...

    Anyone got their v3 working sending mms's? On meteor? Where did you get the settings. I entered them manually and dl'ed them from meteor to no avail.

    Also if this doesn't work I want to reset my phone back to the day it was born... any way to do it without the security key which is at home at the mo? I can see a small "looks-like-a-reset-hole-but-maybe-it-isnt" hole? Is that one?

    Thanks all. oooohhh... post number 300!!!!

    make sure that you activate the settings after you download them. go into message settings and make sure meteor mms is the default profile. and i know its weird but i was doing it for someone before and downloading the settings would never work. then i put my sim card in and did exactly the same thing and it worked no problems. try and get your hands on a sim card thats done it before successfully. also a replacement sim can never hurt

    Should have mentioned that I used to be able to send them no problem... Until yesterday. Thanks for the advice tho... I look into swapping my bros sim in. Also am gonna do a master reset anyway, just thought I'd ask!

    I had the exact same problem as you mate, just before Christmas with Meteor, I had a thread on it in this forum. After a few days I got it working a few days later by downloading the Meteor settings.

    It's a Motorola. Enough said really.

    What could be happening is that a message in the outbox is preventing others from being sent.

    Hmm.. my sweeping generalisation would be "its on Meteor.Enough said really".

    *.... sits looking somberly at his phone....*

    Master reset... turns out that doesn't delete the MMS settings... Must be saved to the SIM card... WAP still working... Downloaded every setting from meteor and hellomoto.com.

    Funny thing is, I have zero clue what I did to the phone. Was working fine up until the other nite. Didn't change a thing, and most of the time I'm sceptical when people say that to me, but I didn't.... So who knows. Maybe it'll magically sort itself out.
