I just installed WM6 on my Cingular 2125 and it works perfectly except for one thing. I went to Messaging to set my MMS setting but there's no MMS listed in my accounts. How do I add MMS?
Same problem...
Hi Guys,
I got the kinda the same problem Is this something you might have heard of before? I've run a few searches on the subject (Google and this forum) and found a few items but nothing that seems to pertain to this exact issue...
I have an Orange SPV M600 which used to have WM5 (MMS worked fine) but now I've 'upgraded' to WM6 (carefully following the instructions) using one of the cooked ROM versions and everything works wonderfully *except* for MMS. Basically, there are no configurable options for MMS inside the messaging program (you know, open the messaging program, click on menu BUT there is no 'MMS Configuration' option).
I seem to remember in the previous bog standard Orange WM5 version that 'MMS Composer' (manufactured by Arcsoft) appeared inside messaging but inside my new cooked WM6 it isn't. Can it be installed? Does it need to be installed? Is there a cab file that can install this? I'd really like to try and avoid formatting and having to try another ROM because of all the configuarion I've done...
Thanks guys
I'm having the same problem, but I tried install the most recent version of the MMS composer and it didn't work either.

I don't see that option anywhere. Did you install anything extra to make that show up? All I have is the OS installed, nothing else. Also that still doesn't tell me where the settings for MMS are.

MMS is working in the WM6 from andot but befor updating do a format binfs(phils instructions) if you don't know who the are you have to do some home work.

I had the same problem, but hes right you have to actually go into text messages and create a new message, it will as kif you want SMS or MMS, select MMS and from there you can get into settings. Weird you have to create a new message to get to settings, but thats how its set up. From there you can put in your MMS settings from the ATT website.

has anyone got the Arcsoft working to send picture files up to 1MB. I get an unsuccessful installation error and I have already gone into policies and changed the registry to let me able to install other programs, but for some reason this one doesn't work.

i can't get arcsoft working. but there is a simple registry hack to fix the file limit size.
this worked on wm5, i doubt it would be different for wm6

Well I'll be darned, you're right!
Thanks so much to all of you. You're right, you have to go to create a new message and only when you're IN the new message can you go about configuring the MMS options (from inside the new message > menu > options > MMS Options)
Still can't get the bl00dy thing to send and receive MMS messages but I suspect that I haven't configured it quite right. Nearly there though.
Thanks again!
great fix, now I just have to figure out to view sent and received messages
*edit, it actually didn't work.....I have 3 different "SendLimit3"s
you have to get the account settings from your carrier.

Sorry, I keep going back in fourth, but now I can see the messages, but they are very small because they have to be sent under 100k and when I take a picture from the phone, the camera takes them really small. I haven't gotten the size limiter fixed yet
once i entered my account settings, i had the option to send up to 1000k
there is a quick registry hack to change this as well.

There's no "options" in my menu when I make a new message. I'm using Phil's ROM though, I'm guessing that's my problem?

Noithing is supposed to come in your inbox folder unless someone sent you something that hasn't been downloaded. MMS files are downloaded as they are received (unless you specified manual downloading)
He's having trouble CREATING a new MMS, not reading one. Do a search for MMS folders
I solved this problem

I do the same with you and have the same problem with you. I solved it hard reset and follow by setting the MMS manually. It's work. I tested both sending and receiving.
Help??
Hi, i was wondering if anyone knew how to fix this issue i'm having with mms on htc touch diamond with t-mobile usa as the service provider.. i can send mms perfectly but when ppl send me mms i receive them extremely small like 1k,2k, etc... and the original images they send me are much larger but for some reason they come out as tiny tumbnails when i receive them is there a way to fix this?? i've only had my phone for a month and its driving me crazy!
sry if i am writting this in the wrong thread but im pretty new at this and this is the closest thread to my problem i've seen so far.. And yes, the mms i have on my htc touch diamond is Arcsoft.....
Hi All,
I recently upgraded to WM6 using midgets build. I have found now that when recieving MMS they all come through as 5kb and are tiny. I have tried sending small files like 50kb to myself and they come through at 5kb too. this also happens when it gets sent from another phone to my phone.
I have checked on the other devices that the compression is disabled but still no joy. Was wondering if anyone is having the same problem? If so is there a solution? Other than this the WM6 version is very good.
Would appreciate some help.
Thanks
Hi Wolfie,
Are you sure you're using the same MMS settings you used before..? because I used both Midget's and Ivan's ROM and they both seem to have MMS working fine. I tried sending 80kb (with audio, picture and text) MMS messages to myself and I can receive the entire thing.
Hi Thanks for replying.
I'm pretty sure i'm using the same settings? What settings are you using? I am on O2 if that helps. Is there anywhere i can find the optimal settings?

hi uatec,
thanks for the settings, i tried this and still no joy!!! I can send to other phones ok but when recieving it comes very small?? I'm confused
Uhmmm... how about Photo Resolution under MMS Configuration-Preferences? Is it set to original? Have you tried playing around with the WAP version under Servers?
yep it is set to original resolution, i have tried both wap stack settings. I just reflashed the rom and still have the problems? i also tried using the settings.cab that was talked about in the other forums, still no joy. Maybe i will just ahve to stick with recieving 5kb MMS!!!
UPDATE!!
i reflashed with Ivans rom and MMS is back working again? So it must be an issue with Midgets rom? or compatability with my phone? Very interesting any thoughts as to why?
My problem is exactly the same - incoming (even selfesent MMS pictures) are coming to me with MAXIMUM size of 6KB. I use Jwrightcmp's WM5 AKU3.2 1.90.96. I put a note in relevant thread. Incoming pictures are always resized to 128x119, without any sence what resolution was the originally. Settings regarding foto in MMS composer seems to be only related to outgoing fotos but not for incoming.
I'm running TNT 5.0 touch flo rom (loving it) and when i first flashed it onto my device, mms worked for the first time since wm5, even with all server settings correct. i have since flashed it on again and have the same server settings but upon hitting send/receiver or an mms showing up ready for download, i get an immediate "error synchronizing" at the bottom. can someone shed some light on this? thanks.
I have read many places that this notice occurs, even though your MMS is setup and working properly. You may want to try sending an MMS to a friend, and then asking a friend to send one to you, to test if you can actually send/receive.

yea i can't send or receive at this point.. there's one lingering out there waiting for download and sometimes it'll even say it's downloaded 99% but dissappear for a while and start the process over.
Any Solution to This Yet??

I am having this issue/problem too. Has anyone posted a solution yet?
This problem is bit similar to mine i had after i bought wizard from T-Mobile. And the problem was in MMS settings. The MMS settings should be propper set in connections and Arcsoft MMS Composer too. I had this problem when i used settings preconfigured from my operator after a while someone released cab file to configure MMS and Internet connection direct for my operator needs and it started to work. So check your settings carefuly in Settings/Connections and in Arcsoft MMS Composer too
Anyone have trouble sending mms? Mine just stalls and eventually gives me a notice that it can't be sent...had the trouble for a while now....
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Are you having this problem on both 3G and Edge or just when you are on Edge?
your not trying to send it through google voice are you?
I had trouble with mine on EDGE. The solution was to get Handcent SMS and set the size of the MMS.
Settings->Send message settings->Maximum MMS size and I set it to 100k
No problems since.

I am also having this problem. I found that it was only an issue on Edge.... which is all that is available here. Pretty much rendering my MMS messages useless. Along with GPS. So im quite displeased at this moment.
As for the Settings = send message settings above thing .... I do not see the "Send MEssage Settings" option anywhere. Not in Message Settings or in regular Settings. Any particular place for it? Hope it works if i find it. Frustrated.
Correction - I see you mean to get the program Handcent SMS. Though that actually pisses me off more that I have to get a program to send on Edge, I will give it a shot.
Works
I can confirm that the Handcent SMS app on the Marketplace works for MMS on Edge network. Thanks for the tip off good sir.
If you're running Stock JF6 ROM and only has EDGE signal, you have two choices:
1. Some how shrink the picture down to 100k or so. Anything bigger won't send over EDGE. It is one of the known bugs in stock ROM.
2. You can flash to the newer leaked beta ROM. This bug has been addressed in newer ROMs.
Or you can wait for the official ROM update that fixes GPS among other things. No one know when that will happen yet.
Question for mmm_tacos
mmm_tacos -
Did you find a way to disable the regular Messaging system so you dont get two notifications for every text/MMS message received?

You should be able to open the stock Messaging application and hit your menu button and go to settings and go to Notifications and uncheck it.

I can send a MMS, but cant receive one.
Those I send it to do receive it.
When I receive a MMS I get a Txt which has a 'Download' button in it. I try to download but it doesnt work, even if the photo is tiny.
Im on JH7
I had this experienced with three different JB roms today. I can send mms (pics) but I can't send plain text messages.
I get the "message not sent" error.
I did a complete wipe, etc. before installing each rom. Any suggestions?

Does this happen with all text messages, or only ones that go really long?
Have you checked to make sure your APN settings are correct?

Ive been getting a weird message.. something like
"Android services has noticed you are sending a large number of SMS messages. Do you want to continue" Then it has 2 options..
Allow or Deny..
After it pops up the first time, it comes back after every 2 or 3 messages sent..
Its powered by Jellybeaned AOKP!
I found out some of the ported ROMs removed the message center option entirely under "Messaging" -> Option key -> "Settings". There should be a "Message Center" option which you should set to +13123149810. Since it's been removed from a couple ROMs sending SMS messages will not work. Anyone know of a ROM that still has this option?

Scratch that I found out that from ICS and up they got rid of that option and replaced it with SMS Center which you can get to by opening the phone dialer and typing in *#*#4636#*#* and selecting -> Phone info.
Go to google and search for your SMS center number which should be based on the carrier you have.
Next, go to twit88.com/home/utility/sms-pdu-encode-decode
Scroll down to where you see SMSC, Receiver, and Alphabet size.
Put in the entire SMSC number, including the + sign into the box, leave receiver blank, change the Alphabet size to 8, and delete whatever is in the message box under Alphabet and hit Convert.
Now, on your phone go to the Phone info menu described above and scroll to the bottom and find the SMSC field.
Enter the first 16 numbers into that field and hit update.
Reboot your phone and you can now send SMS.
This fix is for people who have the proper modems flashed on there phones and can still receive texts but not send them.
