Hi everyone,
Got an MMS issue that I can't figure out.
I'm currently running my 8125 with a Summiter ROM. I did not do any of the extended ROM cab installs, choosing instead to configure everything by hand.
I did end up finally installing one CAB from the extended ROM to assist with getting the MMS to work. After using Cingulars website to help set it up, it works. I can send and receive MMS messages.
Here's the problem. I can receive the images just fine. The problem is, they're ridiculously small. Maybe somewhere around 4 KB in size, even though I have every setting I could find to keep the image as original as possible.
Now, I've sent an MMS to myself, with the same results. So it tells me it's either Cingular or the phone. Anyone else have this problem? Any ideas? Anyone with Cingular not having this issue?
Thanks!
I want to bring this back up as I'm still having the same problem.
Here's a bit more. I sent an MMS message to my email address, and got the full image. However, if I sent it to myself, I get the real small image.
Can anyone either running a stock ROM or one with all the Cingular customizations (and is on the Cingular network) test and see if they're having the same problems?
Thanks!
Got the issue resolved from the looks of it.. Turns out there's a CAB file with a bunch of registry settings in it that did the trick.. I didn't install the CAB file, but rather used CabWUZ and extracted everything.. Did some of the reg edits, and it did the trick..

I've been banging my head against a brick wall lately trying to get MMS to work on a UK Orange SPV M600, i keep checking the settings as described and it took me ages to work out what i was doing wrong
The instructions read...
Setting up the MMS profile
1. Tap on Start and then Messaging.
2. Tap on Accounts and select MMS.
3. Tap on Menu and select MMS Configuration...
...
i can do 1 and 3 but don't have an account called MMS, only SMS and Email
I think it is because i didn't run most of the extended ROM when I hard Reset and used the ROM:
RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID.zip
What can i do Now?
do i need to hard reset again?
i can't really face it all over again, can i just run the necessary .cabs
in which case, can someone let me have them?
I'm sorry if this is answered elsewhere, i've tried browsing round the site loads but the search seems to not be returning anything no matter what i search for
Thanks for lisatening
Bueller...Bueller....anyone! I have the exact same problem...I have done a search on the site but so far nothing solid. I have a Cingular 8125 device.
Thanks,
Ed
Get your original ROM, locate the EXT ROM, there ought to have a CAB named something .. like xxxxMMSxxxxx.CAB on it. Install it and it should work.
Sorry to post this again, i know there is several out there but i can't find a straight answer. I was trying to find a way to send more then 300k for my pictures and i found Raiikis Kaiser tweaks that i installed. I also did what it said on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1922195 which had me go to thru hkml and change alot of the numbers there. After i did that i was unable to receive any mms, b4 i did that the messages automatically downloaded but now it gives me the option to download but it always stays on 0%. I am currently running the Elite Rom. Can you please help me.
Hey guys I have a Sprint HTC touch pro 2 and need an app to send picture mail. Does any have a good one?
You need Arcsoft, I am attaching my version of the one that is needed for Sprint and other carriers as well.
EDIT: WAIT a second, are you on a Stock ROM? If so, you already have the app built in!
sms/mms issue
No, I'm running Mighty Rom with manila 2.1. I went ahead and installed the cab file but, I still can't send pictures through sms/mms. Any ideas? I also had a friend forward me a picture and I'm able to receive it but can't view it. Please help?
Check with your carrier. I know TELUS won't allow us to send pictures via sms.
No, I was able before I installed Mighty Rom. So I should be able to.

Hey stickigure, that seem to fix my problem. After I installed the cab file I restarted and then I was able to view and send mms/sms messages.
Thanks.

Is there a way to bypass the size limit that you can send via sms i believe the limit is 500kb cause i tried to send a pic that was 571kb and i was unable to send help
I would like to know if it is possible to send larger images as well if anyone knows. Also, anyone know why mightyrom stops the sending of mms messages??
alright, sorry to hijack/revive.
I'm on mightyrom (latest, june 20 2010).
I've tried every thread I can dig up to fix the MMS. this one got me the closest.
I've even wiped the phone and reflashed the ROM 3 times! even tried different roms (mightyrom experimental ones, cookie, energy, etc).
I haven't gotten MMS working in any of them. I've installed, uninstalled cabs countless times.
so far, the arcsoft file posted earlier has gotten me the farthest, but still no fix. I receive the notice that it's trying to download an MMS, but it says "invalid argument" and forces me to retry. then an endless loop of "invalid argument." can't send them either.
I'm on the brink of locking my SPL and going to the MR2 official rom.

Why would you go to stock? There are plenty of good roms out there, and Mighty isn't even the greatest, IMO. My rom works with arcsoft preinstalled perfectly on sprint. Mighty belongs to the Telus network, so he can't even test for Sprint devices.
I flashed mightyrom and customized the crap out of it. REALLY don't want to hard reset or flash a new rom. For some dumb reason it's missing picture mail. Google says lots of people have this issue, but they eventually get it straightened out. Not me. I've tried all of these with no luck:
Arcsoft Sprint MMS 5.0.69.44.cab
Sprint ArcSoft Threaded MMS 5.2.12.45.cab
Flyers2114TweaksSprint_5_0_94_128c.cab
Arcsoft_MMS_5_2_6_45U.cab
PictureMail_0.2.2.3.CAB
WinPM.CAB
MMS Fix (M2.5) (General) (Valkyrie).cab
EDIT: fixed it finally, just had to clear out old stuff and get them installed in the right order with the right settings.
--------------
Attempted to wipe out all old cabs and reg entries and windows files, anything that said picturemail, anything that said arcsoft, anything that said mms. I say attempted because when I got up and running again, old messages were brought back that I was sure I must have fully erased.
If anyone else has this issue, try these cabs in this order:
1. Arcsoft_MMS_5_2_6_45U.cab (after this, picture messages still grayed out)
2. Arcsoft Sprint MMS 5.0.69.44.cab (familiar picture message UI, picture options became available, along with server settings. Changed sending method from "internet" to "sprint". Still didn't receive test pix to myself)
3. Now soft reset even though it didn't ask.
After the reset, my pix came through, along with older tests from previous failed attempts.
So, I'm running the latest CM10 nightlies on my One X.. otherwise everything else is normal I think.
My problem is that I can't send MMS messages. When I try and send a picture, it just says sending and never sends. I'm not sure if I can recieve, I haven't had the chance to ask someone to send me something. Anyway, I haven't done any heavy modding to my phone besides trying out the new camera app from 4.2. Since I couldn't view my photospheres, I flashed my rom again to get rid of the new gallery/camera apps. And some time after that, I noticed the mms problem..
I tried editing the build.prop in /system when the 4.2 camera came out, but if I'm not correct, doesn't it get overwritten when I flash again? It seems like the build.prop is back to normal.. The only thing I changed was the model name and brand to galaxy nexus/google but it changed back when I flashed.
Anybody having any MMS problems? Or does anyone know of a possible fix? I've tried earlier nightlies, but to no avail.. This sucks
APN

are you sure you have the right APN for your telco? some have some funny settings for MMS. There are a few lists kicking around for all the major telco's, you might want to check the settings you have against those. These can be entered via
settings -> [wireless & networks] -> more -> mobile networks -> Access Point Names -> [there should be at least one configured here for mms]
Yup, incorrect APN settings is the most common reason for MMS failing.
