I try Sending/Recieving MMS
but it cant
it ALWAYS FAILS
im using a 8125
I'll tell you what i tell most people. MMS's are problematic. not all networks support them coming from WM devices. I can't tell you if it's a solvable problem or not... but the most common one is the network/device...
A little more information please. Did you have problem with MMS ever since you got the phone or did it use to work then suddenly stopped working?
The simplest answer to that actually is that you're phone is not configured to you're home networks MMS settings. You can call your network provider and ask them how to configure your phone to receive/send MMS.
mmm I agree with Nir im afraid, MMS promised so much and delivered so little. Great if your sending one to someone on the same network in the same area, but crap if your sending to someone on different network or when they're roaming. MMS? pfftt.....
I know that doesnt help you, but just dont bother, email a photo from your device, thats what i do and at least you knwo they'll get it yh?
Of course, if you investigate this further with your network and get a good feedback or have a good solution, i'd be happy to hear it.

i think we all would Nir, but my networks have proved difficult in my experience..... why cant they all decide to use common software/hardware so MMS works across networks.... man that pisses me off

I just started using the phone (with original ROM) in Rogers/Fido network in Toronto, and I have been getting on and off calls going straight to voice mail without the phone ever ringing (no missed call notification by the phone).
Anyone else having the problem? Is it related to the phone going to deep sleep state or polling frequency? Any tweaks or registry editing which would reduce the chance of that?
This is a serious problem for me, as I need reliability. I don't mind giving up some battery performance to correct it.
I may trying updating the GSM Radio. Will it make any difference? As I understand, updating GSM Radio only should not erase all the programs like updating OS ROM does, am I correct? I would back up before doing so.
Sorry to state the obvious, but did you accidentally set your phone to forward all calls to voicemail in setting?

No. And this does not happen all the time. If I make a call from the phone, then it can start to receive calls without any problem. It just happens at random. And when it happens, repeated calls will all go straight to voice mail.
And I have disabled the no answer forwarding, so it should keep ringing until the caller hangs up.
hey -
first, I'd like to say these forums are awesome! thanks for the great info.
But i am having the 'straight-to-voice mail' problem with my TC too. It doesn't happen every time, but every once and a while i get a voice mail indicator, but the phone never rang. My girlfriend actually called me 3 times in a row, 2 of which went right to mail, the third one rang. odd. So if anyone has any ideas, i would appreciate it!
Edit: I am also on Fido in Toronto. I have been looking around, and there is the suggestion that perhaps this is a problem with the 'Who Called' or 'Name display' features of voicemail, which doesnt work well with some phones. Now i am not sure if this is it - but i upgraded my VM at the same time I got the TC. Another suggestion has been that the Radio Rom doesnt work well with some netorks. Can anyone confirm/deny this? Any other ideas?
hmm - anything new on this?
For me, my workaround solution is to disable 3G - network settings changed to "GSM" instead of "Auto". Now, the calls have been very reliable with no straight to voice mail problem.
So it looks like there are some incompatibility issues with my 1.58.21.23 Radio ROM and Rogers/Fido network/3G. But I don't know where to look for a better radio ROM (other than loading everything for trial and errors).
And which radio ROM is compatible with Polaris? Only those made for Polaris or the same class of phones? It is rumored that Rogers would release Kaiser very soon, so I presume that Kaiser's Radio ROM (not OS obviously) should be compatible?
aww...i really hope it's not 3G - i guess i might as well cancel that data plan Anyway, I've disabled it, so we shall see if it remedies the problem.
Edit: for those of you who are having the same problem and want to disable 3G but still want to be able to use 3G data every once and a while, I have installed Schap's Advanced Configuration too (which is awesome, btw, and can be found by searching the forums). It has a handy feature that permits you to add 3G on/off to the comm. manager, which makes switching between GSM and 3G really easy. Just thought I'd share.
Just grabbed this thread out and update it here:
Seems the problem does not depend mandatory on using 3G or GPRS
and also not depending on the Radio version. I have noticed missed
calls with enabled 3G and with GPRS only. And I have noticed them
with Radio 1.58.23.21 and with 1.64.08.21 on bepe WM6.1 0.64 GER.
I also have a friend who confirmed he noticed missed calls on stock
WM6.0 GER from O2 germany with stock Radio 1.58.23.21. Its annoying!!
I had the same problems with my old Hermes (TyTN 1) with all ROMs
and all Radio versions also. It's a pity to seem the problem persist on
the Polaris I mean, hey, the TC is some kind of phone, isn't it?
And the main task for a phone is being able to receive a call if radio
reception is OK. Never had a standalone phone, which suffered such
problems...

Hi everyone, I have been having the exact same problem on my Cruise (and no, my phone is not set to forward to voice mail). It's very odd since it seems to happen randomly. I found it resolves temporarily if i make a call then hang up.
Can anyone follow-up if switching to "GSM" instead of "Auto" resolves the issue. This has become a serious problem for me and would appreciate any help. Thanks!
UPDATE: after several days of testing, i am happy to say that i have not had any problems since swithching to GSM
Mine is not doing the same in Vancouver.bc Fido.
I've tried multiple radio roms and am gradually working my way down the list from newest to oldest. so far no difference.
Any other ideas?
sorry to resurrect an old threat.
I'm having issues with my Touch Pro on a T-Mobile US account. It fails to send texts alot, and I get that "Message was not sent. Try again?" prompt.
Does anyone know why this is happening, or a possible solution?

Knock on wood I have not had the issue with T-Mobile USA so far. Try a soft reset?
I've tried a soft-reset. This problem seems intermitent and I can't seem to sort it out. It was like this out of the box but then seemed to start working so I disregarded it but now it's doing it again.
i dont have the touch pro (yet) but i have the same problem with my touch cruise. It is most likely since we are only on Edge which doesnt have enough bandwidth for SMS, data, and phone. So when data is connected i have times when this problem occurs. I did find a work around though that is easier than soft resetting.
Send the SMS, if you dont get the alert message saying its been sent within like 5~10 secs I will use the phone to call someone (i call my voicemail).
After about 10~30 seconds i get the alert telling me my message was sent.
Annoying yes but better than a soft reset each time
i just got my touch pro and also use t mobile in san francisco. so far no problems with txt or voice calls.

Same problem here but in the Netherlands using T-Mobile. After this problem occurred I tried searching the internet but didn't found a solution. After about 30 minutes I tried it again and it worked
It could be having some sort of connection issues, might try having T-Mo verify the internal settings that its using to send the information. It almost might be your signal changing from H to G to E or something that is kicking out the SMS? Not sure but might be something worth looking into
I haven't been having any issues with my Touch Pro on the US network. However, when I bought my wife her LG Secret, we had the exact same issue. Easy resolution...call customer service. They have a department that specializes in phones not sold for the T-Mobile network. The department pushed two .exe files to my wife's phone, and got both SMS and MMS issues resolved.
The good news is we aren't the only ones buying outside of what T-Mo offers. So many people do that they have their own department to support us with no issues. They were a great resolution to our frustrations.
Good luck.

I think you are right. During browsing I noticed the same problems, my network changes from H to G and back. For a small period the connection will be lost, maybe that was the moment I wanted to send my SMS.
Is it possible to assign H for my preferred data connection?
I am trying to get VOIP to work on my Fuze, and it has just been one problem after another. But my main problem is that it seems to be flaky I think it disconnect from the VOIP but still said it is connected. So i can call out and it reconnects and it all works. But no one can call in and i haft to go in to the phone settings and then internet turn it to off then back on again to whenever avalible, then they can call in for awile untell it disconnect again.
When i reset my divice sometimes is comes back on as connected and other times it come back on disconnected and i haft to go back to the phone setting and turn VOIP off and on again.
Is this a problem for everyone, or just me?
Oyeah i am using sipgate as my VOIP provider
Any Help would be much appreciated
Anyone have any suggestions?
bad connection? Mobile/3G/2G connection or wifi?
hard reset?
It might be a bad connection I will also do a hard rest.
So do you have any suggestions, if it is a bad connection. So it will automatically log back in what the connection is available again.
I am using Internet Calling 21109 to hack it. and then using a program call Sip conf tool to setup my VOIP settings. Is this the best way to do this or do you suggest something better?
Thanks

I'm having the same issue you are (I'm using wifi). I'm playing around with some registry settings trying to fix it - will let you know if I find something that helps.
I'm also using the same tools to set it up as you are - and those are indeed the best ones.
Good to know am not alone with this problem. Hopefully we can find a solution.

Who is your service provider? Are you on ATT? And if you are on ATT, which ROM are you using?
VOIP on Windows Mobile
I have struggled for two years trying to do this, with countless releases. I eventually just bought a second wireless voip phone that works great, and was inexpensive. Not a great solution. I can get it to work, however the call quality is terrible, and the client is flaky as can be. I also dont like the way the dialer makes you select voip or provider and then stays on it. I have tried a few third party software apps such as fring, and Xbeam, and these worked a whole lot better. In addition, most voip clients are speaker only. You can use a bluetooth headset, and that helps alot. I guess what I am trying to say is that unless you love endlessly searching for a solution, or are hell bent on getting this working, I would save your time and work on something else. PM me and I can send you the info on the phone that I got.

the problem with VoIP is that Voice travels over IP networks in packets in the same manner as data, so when you talk over an IP network your conversation is broken up into small packets. These voice and data packets travel over the same network with a fixed bandwidth. So its unreliable and doesn't provide a mechanism to ensure data packets are delivered in sequential orderhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VoIP#Challenges
wish i had real info for you, i was listening to an Adam Corrolla podcast and he was going off about VoIP.. If you were fortunate enough to be connected to a DS1 line aka T1 line, you wouldn't experience the $hitty quality.. but they cost several hundred thousand..

I wouldn't mind going 3ed party,
I tried some a wile back but the problem i ran in to was that nothing else interfaced with them. Like in my contacts if i said call this person it would use the build in phone software not the VOIP software. I am not sure if there is a work around or not for that.
I think it was skype and Nimbuzz
it seemed like nimbuzz got it to work in the normal speaker. I will haft to go back an check
Hope someone can help me with this. So I got my phone yesterday and I set it all up and everything and I realised that I had bars but not data, no texting, or calling. So I did some research and remembered that I probably needed to change the APN, the default APN was set to Verizon and I have Xfinity Mobile so that made sense but it didn't work so I set it to Xfinity Mobiles APN and data works now I can call, receive calls, and even text others and they'll receive my texts. But for some reason I am unable to get any texts from anyone, no MMS or SMS. I'm really not sure what I'm missing, I don't want to have to go through my carrier and deal with their crap so any help is appreciated.

I believe you're going to have to as am I. Need to contact carrier and tell them you need to be a CDMA-less device.

Same Problem.
Fixed with upgrade OS and do a factory reset.
After that all works fine.

zandander is right, but more specifically; It looks like either time will resolve as they add the device through natural attrition, (24-48 Hrs) or contact them (877-894-4946) and request feature # 83856 "CDMA_LESS"

My understanding from talking to Xfinity mobile service people is that they have no power to change the device to CDMA-less (one of the reasons they only support iPhones for byod). This was about a year ago, but they still haven't added any Android byod support so I don't things have changed.
Verizon is phasing out CDMA all together so it might not be a problem for much longer: https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-218813/
Do they make you change your plan if you are on a legacy unlimited data plan to go CDMA-less?
