Microsoft CorporationI cannot send or receive multimedia messages (MMS) on my Lumia phone. Restart your phone with SIM card inserted, and retry sending a multimedia message ...
Feb 4, 2014 - MMS sending and receiving pictures no longer working on Nokia Lumia. up vote 2 down vote favorite. In early 2014 I installed "Update 3" (8.0.10517.150) and the "Lumia Black" software ... "Can't send message Try again".
messages then home button then setting. in setting look for mms and look at its settings you may need the message setting number from you phone net work. change the setting with the phone network will be like http:/// then the password change these to that and save.
You need to configure internet and MMS settings on your phone to be able to send/receive multimedia messages.
Normally, the service provider sends these data as a SMS once you power on the device for the first time with the new sim card in it.
If you didn't received any, contact your service provider( in your case, it is T-Mobile ) and ask them to send the configuration settings or you may need to go to a T mobile service outlet.
That usually occurs when your internet is not turned on. If you do not see that your 3G is turned on when you are trying to send a picture, you will get this error message. Go to your wireless settings and double check that your mobile network is turned on. If it is, you might need to update your profile (also under settings).
I suspect it's related to your sim card (network), not your samsung cell phone. In most cases, regarding sending picture messages, the problem is from the Service Operator. Have you tried the sim card on another phone? If not, remove the sim card, insert it on another phone and try sending a message from another mobile to you number, or you can do it in vise versa by inserting another sim card on your mobile.
If you can't receive picture messages even it's inserted on another handset, then you need to call the customer care of your Network Operator and tell them your problem, they will help you fix it immediately.
You can check the message center number, but I don't think it's very much important in your case, well, if you wanna try, just check the text message settings and verify that the message center number (which is currently in use) is the same number which is on another phone with the same network (the other sim should be of the same network in your area). If it's different, make the changes and save the settings. Also disable the "Receive Via" or similar settings.. (I can't recollect the exact settings as i don't have the same model with me, please excuse me for this.).
If the same sim card doesn't receive picture messages using another handset, don't bother to change the settings or to make any changes with it, first call the customer care and verify from them, you may make mistakes instead of fixing it.
For picture messaging there are a couple of things you and the other person needs...
1, A MMS capable phone, e.g a phone able to send and receive picture messages.
2, The correct MMS settings, both you and your friend needs settings for picture messaging, just like you need settings for going onto the net.
3, On some networks, the service has to actually be turned on by the network. e.g some networks who are behind dont have the service turned on for everyone you have to actually call them and make sure picture messaging is enabled on your account.
My first thing to check would be number 2, make sure you and your friend have the correct settings for sending and receiving picture messages, if they dont have the settings on there phone, even if your phone does then they will not receive the picture. There are a couple of ways to get the settings. 1, You can search for the correct settings on the net for your network and make and model of handset and then manually enter them (slow) 2, Most decent manufacturers have an option on their website e.g Nokia, Sony Ericsson, to select your phone model, type in your phone number and network and have the settings sent directly to you. 3, You can call the network and get them to send the correct settings to your handset.
you need to be subscribed to a gprs server on your mobile phone, like wap. this service allows you to send the picture messages and recieve them. hope this helps :)
