Problems with mms 3 network.

darling.x

I'm havin problems with mms.

I've a sony ericsson k800i. I'm on 3pay (pay as u go).

I cant send or receive mms. I dont send or receive many but i was able 2 send and receive before.

I've an important mms tryin 2 get through. Its n the inbox but i cant open it. It says somethin about unable 2 download due 2 settings.

I've checked all my settings over and over, + i think i've everything correct but cant send or receive mms.

Is there any way i can recify this. I need 2 get this mms n my inbox.
Thanks

Call 3 for support??? Dear god no! The required settings are in the settings sticky - if these don't work post any error you get when trying to send.

this is how the settings should be on a k800i:

menu->settings->connectivity->data communication->data accounts
->new account->ps data (or packet data or gprs)

name:3 mms
apn:3ireland.ie
username:blank
password:blank

press save

press enter (with 3 mms highlighted)
in authentication, tick only PAP (untick none and chap)

menu->settings->connectivity->internet settings->internet profiles->new profile

name:3 mms
connect using:3 mms
press save

highlight 3 mms and press more->settings

connect using:3 mms
use proxy:yes
proxy address: mms.3ireland.ie
port number: 8799
username:blank
password:blank

press save

menu->messaging->settings->picture message->mms profile->new profile.
mms profile name: 3 MMS
message server:http://mms.um.3ireland.ie:10021/mmsc/
internet profile: 3 mms

Is it possible that you're roaming on Vodafone where you are (you'll know if you don't have a 3G signal) and that's the reason? Just a thought...
I'm not on 3 so I don't know but someone else here might.

Nope, MMS is available even outside of 3g coverage, do try to call through to 3 customer support, even if they do not solve the problem they will organise a replacement sim for you, this may sort the problem

Hi, thanks for the replies.
Thank you very much sam vimes. I've changed my settings to the settings you gave here. My settings were obviously not correct. I got my mms last night. Its a beautiful photo which is very special. Its means a lot to me. Thank you for helping.
