Has anyone had any luck with Simple Mobile MMS on their Nexus S? I've been toying with all the different APN settings I can find, and I've yet to be able to download MMS. Sending isn't a problem, just receiving. Quite the frustrating issue.
This might be helpful to someone else, I've been using these settings for over a month with no problems. (SimpleMobile just updated their website with these settings as well.)
From the home screen
Press Menu
Select "Settings"

Select "Access Point Names"

Enter the following information:

This should work on just about all Android phones.

i have tried the settings from other posts with some of the deffirant settings and could not get them to work properly. so i went to simplemobile online an tried using settings just for android 1.6 and higher witch use the data and mms settings in the same apn list. the pics send very fast and clear hopefully will work for others. i think the settings do not work properly on the mytouch 4g because most of us on here are not using stock roms and that is what simple mobile will be setting it up for

Guys I got a Skyrocket (ATT) from the US and would like to use the phone overseas. Currently, I am the UAE and would like to use this phone as my rimary device (getting rid of my BlackBerry). I don't want to root the phone (due to it being on the company network), but have unlocked the device.
I can send and receive calls no problem, but can't seem to access/use data or send mms messages. I have the following APN(s) set up (for Etisalat), but it still doesn't work. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
APN #1 -
Name: 3G
APN: etisalat.ae
Proxy <Not Set>
Port <Not Set>
Username: <Not Set>
Password: <Not Set>
Server <Not Set>
MMSC: <Not Set>
MMS: <Not Set>
MMS port: <Not Set>
MCC: 424
MNC: 02
Autherntication type: <Not set>
APN type: internet+mms+supl
APN #2 -
Name: etisalat
APN: mms
Proxy <Not Set>
Port <Not Set>
Username: mms
Password: mms
Server <Not Set>
MMSC: h ttp://mms/servlets/mms
MMS proxy: 10.12.0.30
MMS port: 8080
MCC: 424
MNC: 02
Autherntication type: <Not set>
APN type: mms
When I add the first APN, the APN type is listed as <Not Set>, but when I set the second one up, the first one defaults to internet+mms+SUPL. It also has a 'select circle' which I hit will turn green, but then can't de-select it. I have tried to set the first APN to internet, but neither works.
Wanted to see if I could get some working APN settings for unlocked atrix 2 mms web ect...... With the default apn i was unable to send mms but i could receive them..... Currently i am unlocked on T-mobile and this config seems to work.....
