O2 MMS not sending out

Sorry if this has been answered before (but I can't find a solution).
I have loaded latest o2 rom in corporate mode and entered the MMS config but all I get is :
"Unable to send your message(s). Your message(s) will remain in the Outbox."
The settings I have are:
For MMS settings
server O2UK
193.113.200.195
port 9201
server address: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
I have a wireless connection at home and am not sure what MMS should connect through (connect via choice in settings).
Anyone have an idea or had the same problem?
Steve

i have had the same problem. never figured out how to get it to send, despite trying lots of things in connection settings, so gave up in the end.
would be interested to hear the answer tho! )

Use your gprs operator settings.. You cannot have any other connection...

hey here are the O2 settings that work for me to enable sending of MMS Messages
in MMS Configuration under servers i have
Server Name O2UK
Gateway 193.113.200.195
Port number 9201
Server address http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
Connect via My Work Network
Then in settings under the connections tab click on Connections
Add a new modem connection under My Work Network
This should be called something like o2 Active connecting using Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G)
Access point wap.o2.co.uk
username o2web
password password
leave everything else as default.
This should let you send MMS Messages, it works for me!

Thanks mjames_84 those settings are working now.
Hope it helps others too.

ah... this might be the problem - i do
i already have a connection setup in both "My Connections" and "My Work Connections"
is there no way around this?

tried deleting the other connection in "My Work Connections" and yup - MMS sends fine now. not sure what i'll do when i need that connection again, but for the moment - yay, MMS fun

One thing I have noticed ....
Even with the settings above - I cannot get MMS to send with "WAP 2.0" selected (default setting) under MMS configuration
As soon as I select WAP 1.2 they send straight away
Anyone else noticed this ?

Hmm I'm not 100% sure on this, but I think if you want to use WAP2.0 you have to specify a different port. I seem to remember that when using personal mode instead of corporate it was set up to use WAP2.0 and the port was different to the settings I had previously written down from my old XDAII....I still used the settings from my XDAII cause I know that they worked.
Can anyone (mad enough) running the full personal installation with o2 Active find out what port is used my default when using WAP2.0 for sending MMS Messages?

Port number for WAP 2.0 is 8080

Thanks Lord Buckingham
Does anyone know what the difference is between WAP 1.2 and 2.0? Is 2.0 faster? better? more secure?

But even with port 8080 selected I still can't send MMS with wap 2.0 selected - yet with 1.2 I can send them via port 9201 or 8080 ! the port number was the first thing I changed when I had problems , from the default 8080 to 9201 (which seemed to be the obvious choice ) so it seems that wap 2.0 just doesn't work for me
very strange ! I'd be interested to know if anyone is using 2.0 successfully (just out of curiousity)

I sent one near the start, but had to reduce the pic size below 100K or something, if I recall....
Anyone confirm what the limits are on O2?

I still cannot get it to send using any of the above settings or the original ones that o2 active install. If I use the o2 3g contract sim that came with it then it sends with NO PROBLEM whatsoever, BUT I don't use my contract sim ever, I use a o2 online sim which I have used for years.
Any ideas?
Is the settings different for PAYG and for CONTRACT ?
If so then I need the settings for PAYG please guys, can you help?

if you are using an old "on line" SIM I suspect that it might be one of the old Genie internet SIMs, so the settings may be different. Try setting the device up as pay and go, so change the APN to "payandgo.o2.co.uk" , username "payandgo", password "password", all the other settings should be the same. If this fails, climb into a large bottle of red wine, sometimes its the only way :wink:

Hey, i couldnt get it to download a message and the fix above worked.
Im assuming that as it connected to the 3g network that it charged me for d/ling the message yeah?
can it to be set to do it when its synced with the computer or in a wifi area?
Cheers

Got mine working with WAP 2.0 !!
The settings I have are:
Server: O2UK
193.113.200.195
Port 8080
Server address: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
Connect via: The WAP Network

updated rom all is OK apart from MMS wont send!

I have updated the tmobile rom using the K-JAM_WWE_216901_2169101_020710_ship.exe rom. Everything seems ok apart from the fact that i can send mms messages
I am using the setup for tmobile connections and the internet works fine. When i click send for mms it automatically states that unable to send your messages your message will remain in the outbox!
any ideas?? Thanks in advance

you need to setup mms configuration, search for MMS settings.
sorry i dont know the settings but they are available on the forum.
good luck
R

rob thanks for the reply.
i have setup mms configuration with the following:-
server name: T-Mobile MMSC
Gateway: 149.254.211.10
port number: 9201
server address: http://mmsc.t-mobile.co.uk/
connects via: My Work Network
sending size limitation: 100k
WAP version: WAP 1.2
still not working, dowsnt even seem to attempt to connect automatically comes up with the unable to message!!!

You dont say your location but my uk settings are
Server name: T-Mobile UK
Gateway: 149.254.201.135
Port No: 8080
Server address:http://mmsc.t-mobile.co.uk:8002/
Connect via: T-Mobile Internet
Sending size: 100k
Wap version: 2.0
They are the bog standard settings preloaded
Hope this helps

i'm on O2 paygo and have to use the wap network to get my mms to work, this maybe different for tmobile.
there may be some cab files on the ftp to help get the settings working.
i've just upgraded my rom so need to do this myself but for O2.
good luck if you find a solution please post it to help other tmob users
regards
Rob

guys many thanks for your advice, checked my settings and it appears i had location work nettwork selected - i think this may have been installed from the tmobile cab settings - i changed that to the internet and now i can receive mms - havent tested send yet but assume it will be ok!

i've had same problem few days ago, despite i didn't change anything ins MMS settings. i've had to reenter and confirm the same settings again and it just started work fine.

glad u got it sorted :wink:

I can again no longer send mms. I have reverted to a previous backup i had and can no longer send mms. I checked all my settings and they were as above - the settings that worked previously - I have definately got The Internet selected for connecttion. I have also tried demoniks settings for tmobile and stil no joy! the strange thing is i can receive messages just cant send any! Any ideas woudl be greatly appreciated!

may not be relevant but a recent Atom ROM upgrade messed up MMS sending but only
if you insert the contact, if you manually type the number to send to it works.

cheers mate for the response. I tried that but i still get the unable to send error! This is the most buggy phone i have ever had! It is a really good phone but appears to have so many issues!! Its a full time job trying to get fixes for it! I have three issues at present:-
1) No sound when SMS is received
2) Wont turn on at certain times
3) MMS wont send
does anyone have a handset anda build with no bugs?????

I have been browsing quite a bit to find all appropriate settings for my XDA Exec to work on Fido in Montreal. I also spoke to customer service; they were kind enough to walk me through basic setup and flip a switch on my account to allow MMS and WAP.
Could you compare your parameters with the following?

A few newbie questions

I'm in the UK and have got hold of a new O2 DXA Mini S.
I'm on the Orange Network in the UK and the unit works fine in everyway except for sending mms messages.
I can make call and send/receive texts but not mms messages.
Someone told me it was to do with the fact that even thought its unlocked there is a default setting in the rom with it being an O2 branded unit and the only way to be able to be able to send/receive mms messages would be to reflash it. Is this correct?
Secondly, yesterday I noticed on the 'TODAY' screen that I had a battery status notification that has now disappeared - all I have done is to remove some software from the remove programmes section - there was one entry in there that looked like it was something to with O2 settings.
Butr I cannot find a way of getting the battery status onto the 'Today' screen now.
Or are there any free progs about that I can install that will do the same thing ?- it seemed quite useful to have it on front screen.
I have somehow managed to get rid of all the O2 branded stuff from the phone - was the battery status on TODAY screen part of that?
Thirdly my friend has a unit and on the TODAY screen by the date, the day also is shown - eg thursday 23 november
all I can get is the date. Cannot find anyway of putting the day name onto the TODAY screen.
Lastly is there a way of restoring the unit to how it was as it came out of the box?
There were two setup options when I first turned the unit on - one was for O2 customers which I accepted, as I knew it would work with an Orange SIM - the other option was a more customised option - someone has told me I should have probably selected this in order to be able to send mms messages on my own network.
Thanks
Sorry for the confusing post

mms settings
in my opinion you should make a new connection.
let orange send you the settings.
this should solve this

I've got the orange settings but it won't let me send or receive mms.
I can send text and browse internet through Orange but I've noticed there is a default O2 setting within the mms settings that the system won't let me delete.
I imagine the rom would need to be reflashed??
Or does anyone know a way of using the orangemms service on an O2 phone with an orange sim in it?

Add a new server in the mms configuration and call it orange.
Make sure it has these settings
Orange MMS settings
Access Point Name: orangemms
Gateway IP (proxy) address: 192.168.224.10
Port: 9201 (some users have reported 8080 works if 9201 doesn't)
Server address http://mms.orange.co.uk/
And make sure connect via = INTERNET often wrong

Tried that and still cant send

connect via = internet
Just seems to connect via Orange GRPS
and if I try and set up one in the section : Settings/Connection / My work network and choose
select a modem: cellular line ( gprs)
access point name: orangemms
and leave rest blank
and select use server assigned ip address
This is what orange told me to do
It doesn't work either.
They siad its probably because I'm using an branded O2 phone ( even though its unlocked ) that I can't do the mms stuff ????
Thanks for help and contributions so far

Have orange set up your account to send and receive mms?

Well if I put sim into my samsung d900 - i can send and receive pics ok.
They get sent ok - and if someone sends me a p[icture it just arrives with a text
( I don't have to download it or anything )
And on the O2 mini s I can do everything but send mms - ( text, calls, internet, wireless, gprs all work ok )
If I send a picture to mini s from another phone - I get text notification but it is unable to download it.
A friend has same O2 mini S on Orange network with same problem. A guy in Orange shop told him it is something to do with the ROM being made for O2 ??
I'm intersted to see if anyone in UK is using an O2 mini s on the Orange network and are able to send receive mms??

Virgin Mobile (UK) Network - Need Help!

I am currently using an HTC Touch and trying to change network from Orange to Virgin Mobile. I am able to call but unable to send text messages for some reason. Can anyone help me out? Every attempt of sending a text message returns the message: "Your text message cannot be sent."
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

OK,
Try this..
Start/Settings/Phone/
Select the Services Tab
You should see a Voice Mail And Text Messages option and a button lower down marked "Get Settings"
Select or highlight the Voice Mail and Text Messages option and then Press the "Get Settings" button.
After reading the services from the network you should see two numbers listed one for voicemail and one for Text messages.
The text message service centre for Virgin is: +447958879890
If your phone has not picked this up from your SIM card..enter it yourself.
That should be it.
Incidentally, the phone usually gets all these setting when you boot the device fresh or after a hard reset...or at least it does with an unlocked phone. Not sure if you phone is locked to Orange or not.

By the way, the Orange SMS service center numbers are:
+447973100973
Alt: +447973100974
So you can check and see if you still have one of those.

Just done this but nothing's changed...
Still unable to send a text message. My phone is unlocked.
If it helps, my MMS Settings are:
Server Name: Default
Gateway: 63.73.9.22
Port Number: 9201
Sever Address: http://vxpix.com/servlets/mms
Connect Via: Orange World
Send Limit: 300K
WAP Version: WAP 1.2

SMS or text messages are not effected by MMS settings. BTW are you trying to send an SMS or a MMS?
I did notice your MMS settings are wrong for Virgin UK anyway.
Virgin MMS settings can be found here:
http://www.filesaveas.com/mms.html
Note: Virgin must enable MMS for your account. Contact Virgin Customer Services
Access Point Name: goto.virginmobile.uk
Username: user
Password: (leave blank)
Authentication: Normal
Data bearer: GPRS
Gateway IP (proxy) address: 193.030.166.001
Port: 8080
Session mode: Permanent
MMS Message (Relay) Server URL http://mms.virginmobile.co.uk:8002
You're going to have to change you network settings too as you are still using Connect VIA Orange, and i presume that these have not been changed.
In all honesty, the best way might be to hard reset the phone and then boot up fresh with your Virgin Sim card installed. The HTC software will auto load the Virgin MMS, SMS and Network settings automatically. (Although having written that, if you phone is an unlocked Orange phone them I'm not sure it will).
If that's not really an option for you then post back.

I am not trying to send an MMS, just an SMS. I would preferably like to not hard reset; is there nothing else I can do?

mmm sorry you have exhausted my knowledge in this area.
I would have thought that if the service center is input correctly in the services area then the phone should be able to send an SMS. What number is displayed?
You might like to give Virgin a call and make sure that the service center number is till the same.
A quick Google on the subject has suggested a faulty SIM card as the phone is supposed to pick SMS numbers up automatically from the SIM card.
Sorry can't help much more from this end...good luck.

I happen to have two Virgin SIMs and both pose the same problem. I will try a hard reset and hope that works. The device was originally locked to Orange before it was unlocked. I was able to pick up the correct service centre for Virgin: +447958879890 but still had the same problem.
Thank you very much for your help anyway.

Playing around with the settings I managed to sort it out.
I simply changed the SMS settings in Settings/Connections to GSM rather than GPRS and seemed to work!
Thank you gadgetwizard for your help and I apologise if I have wasted your time.

You were not wasting my time at all...glad you got it sorted out.
