Unlocked Viewty - need help configuring internet and MMS settings for T-Mobile USA

I just got my unlocked Viewty (02 UK Branded). I Typically get my phones from UK so have lots of practice configuring connectivity settings to work with my home network. This is my first LG and I havent been able to get the internet, or MMS working. I have all the ip adresses and can enter the APN, but there is not space for all the info. Plus the 02 internet settings seem hard-wired in so no matter what it still tries to use that and the connection fails!
Help! Am I missing something? Is there another way to configure this? Also, I am unable to transfer music from itunes, Nokia PC Suite, or random downloaded files- seems to only recognize mp3? Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance! Gloria

I thing your phone still use O2 software configuration even your lg viewty unlocked. The important step that should be done if you unlock lg phone, upgrade your previous software with new software from your current network provider. It's should solve your problem.

I can't receive MMS on my Sharp Stx-2 (unlocked for tmobile), but I can send MMS. What are the right messaging settings so I can receive MMS?

Make sure you have your mobile data turned on. On some phone models, when sending an MMS, the phone will automatically enable it until it is sent. In order to receive one, you may have to enable your mobile data from the phone's menu. Since you're unlocked on T-Mobile, it's possible that your phone supports sending MMS over standard networks, but not receiving, in which case your phone's antenna is not compatible with T-Mobile's network frequency.

I can't set up the internet on my phone and send mms

You need to specify if this is a branded phone you purchased from a carrier or if this phone is unlocked and unbranded. If you've purchased it from a carrier (t-mobile, 3, rogers, etc) then your carrier should be able to send the settings to your phone OTA (over the air)

If it is an unlocked unbranded phone, you'll need to manually configure the settings for both internet and MMS. These settings are normally located under "network settings" or similar for internet and message settings for MMS.

Each carrier has a specific settings alotted, here are some links to help you find your own carrier's settings:

I bought UK unlocked Samsung SGH U 600 T Mobile

T-Mobile USA and T-Mobile UK use different WAP and MMS settings - you will probably discover that t-zones doesn't work on the phone either.

The simplest thing to do is go to the T-Mobile USA site and use the OTA configurator to send the correct settings for WAP and MMS to your phone.

The link is here:
