Hi,
I currently have a SIM free Samsung Galaxy S2 and I'm using the Softbank network in Japan with a black SIM card. Now I have everything working in terms of able to connect to the internet and also send MMS using a modified stock MMS client that allows the User Agent String to be specified as an iPhone.
My problem is that there is a lack of a "Reply to All" function in this MMS client. Since lots of people I know use an iPhone, they often have group messages. Now the only MMS client I see that has a "Reply to All" function is the Softbank Mail client
(I can't post links, but if you search for Softbank on the Android store, it should come up)
However, installing this and trying to send an MMS doesn't work. It gives a connection failure. I assume it's something to do with the User Agent String or it has hardcoded the non-iPhone APN settings in.
Has anyone any knowledge on how to modify this to work with the black SIM on Softbank?
Thanks for any help.

Just purchased this device on the advice from the shop that it performs push email. Of course, when I call Customer Services they deny this; SMS text messaging at best. Have I been sold a pup? :evil:
push-email? what would that be like? someone writes you a message and you get it instatly as with ICQ without your device checking emails every second?
AFAIK non of the comon email protocols incorporate such a thing. email is a asynchronous way of communication.
you might want to try msn messenger or any other IM instead.. but don't forget you have to be connected to the internet all the time (which of course is a must, if you want to use any ip-based service at all..)
even if your provider (and the phone) supported wap-push (as in WAP 2.0), you'd have to be connected..
AFAIK, SMS is usually the only "connectionless" push-messenger for mobile phones

It can have the Blackberry client installed on it, which is push email, but as far as I know, T-Mob only supply this for corporate users that have a Blackberry server, they don't do the desktop pop/imap client that runs on your PC from what I have been told.
ah, didn't know about that.... but i guess the blackberry has to either still be connected all the time to the internet or the service provider hast do add some new services on his side too?...
maybe your guy at the store mixed it up with the Motorola MPx, which according to a press release will have that feature (using the blackberry technology) ... and the MPx 220 or something like that should have it too..

I think I remember hearing somewhere that the latest version of MS Exchange can do push e-mail... it works something like the exchange server sends an sms when you get an e-mail and that causes the device (whether it's a XDAIIs or whatever else that is running WM) to connect and download the new e-mail.... never seen it working or anything tho so that could be rubbish...
Perhaps they were simply referring to POP3 through GPRS?? Or maybe just something that they once heard someone say and thought they could repeat to sound knowledgeable!!
hello guys, if first like to start off by saying that i did try searching but was unable to find a solution. I currently have my email address at msn.com. I'd like to be able to access my email and recieve notifications of new emails on my phone.i realize that windows live program does not work with the tmobile proxy, so i found a program that forwards email from msn to gmail.com so i figured id use outlook to check my forwarded email, but outlook wont connect through the proxy. what im asking now is whether theres a program out there that allows me to check my email (msn.com or gmail.com) through the tmobile proxy? thanks in advance and all answers are appreciated.

I think you might be a little mistaken. The 5.99 T-mobile plan includes unlimitted free e-mail. As long as your outlook e-mail uses a standard port (which gmail does), then you don't need to use any sort of proxy or anything to get it to work, it just works.
If you do have the proxy set up, then you would need to make a second wap profile that circumvents the proxy.
Hi guys I've been trying to get MMS to work on my touch pro. I downloaded and installed QVGA_Arcsoft_MMS5.0.27.25.CAB. The phone installs fine and I can write and attach files as needed.
When I send I get an error.
Warning!: Unable to send your message(s). Your message(s) will remain in the drafts folder.
I think it has something to do with the MMS server options.
My Phone service provider is Telus.
Editorial: My old crappy LG did photo and video messages all snappy like. I'm paying for unlimited pictures and video messages. I want to use it. Yeah I know I could email the documents, and I have. But sometimes phone to phone is the way to go. I think this is a very useful business tool.
Update:
went to server options
added new mms server
Server Name: Telus
Gateway:
Portnumber:8088
Server address: http://mmsfeplb01.int.eng.telusmobility.com:8088/mms
Connect via: TELUS
Send Limit: 300k
WAP Version: 2.0
Now the error changes to:
Unknown Sender address
Update:
tried new server options
Server Name: Telus
Gateway:
Portnumber:80
Server address: http://mms.telusmobility.com/servlets/mms
Connect via: TELUS
Send Limit: 300k
WAP Version: 2.0
Now the error changes to:
OK
weird huh?

I have access to a wiki page that list all the carriers around the worlds sms & mms gateways and have also looked at us cellular website which list the same gateway addresses. oh and before I go any further i'm on sprint. but my question is if I plug in a # on any other carrier in gmail with the sms gateway I can send a text through my email client and that person can text me back to my gmail except for us cellular. When I was on the phone with the us cellular tech he tried to tell me only us cellular customers can use the sms gateway address to text through gmail or through a program called text for free over wifi by pinger inc.
How is it that it's possible with all the other carriers and how is us cellular able to block my use of sms texting through email? how can they tell if an email address is an actual us cellular customer?
Hi everybody !
I'm trying to develop an app that has an "auto" sending mail feature.
I want that when the user push a button, the mail is sent via the app itself and not via the mail or gmail app...
So, my code works fine but I have a problem with the smtp protocol.
Concerning the french internet providers (I'm french ), we can use any smtp via wifi but if we use the gsm network, we need to use the smtp of the gsm provider. To handle this problem, I have used a little tip. I can recover the gsm operator with getNetworkName() and as in France, all smtps are like smtp.xxx.fr, I just had to replace the "xxx" by the operator's name.
But for the other countries, I don't know how it works....
Does anybody has an idea to handle this problem with a complete solution for all countries?
Thank you !
