Can't receive MMS from T-Mobile phone

My wife has a T-Mobile 6230 and my Jam can't receive the MMS she sends me.
It has a download button but never manages.
MMS sent from myself is fine.
Arcsoft version 2.5.0.28
Any ideas? Is this a known problem?

i had this problam after i upgraded the rom from I Mate -
all i had to do was install the T-mobile setting from my old rom...
Try it
If you are getting the file and can not read it.. maybe the picture is in a different format,

I think there is another reason for that. Unless you have not send at least one MMS by yourself, you are not registered as "MMS capable" by T-Mobile. So try to send on MMS from your Jam and have a retry if you can receive MMS then.
Cheers

Is it only MMS to yourself that don't work, or to other people's hansets? Have you tried the SIMs in other handsets to narrow down the possible problems. I work in a T-Mobile store and that's what I'd try to establish first. Do you have a local store, lots of staff have Compacts so should be able to help (I hope!)

Thanks for the replies BUT, the problem is that i can't RECEIVE from a T-Mobile Phone!!
My Jam is an Orange device and I can receive OK if I send it myself. However, a T-Mobile 6230 MMS is received but cannot be downloaded by my Orange JAM

That's why I suggested trying the SIMs in different handsets, to try and establish whether it's an issue just between your two phones or a bigger one between the two numbers.
For example, if you put your Orange SIM in another handset and can receive the MMS then it's an issue with your M500, if not the issue may be at the other end. You'll probably have to try a number of combinations to narrow down where the problem is (4 by my reckoning), but trial and error is often the best (if not quickest) way. It may not seem like sense but in my experience of trying to diagnose problems it's the best start. At least you know which part of the whole system you're looking at. Let us know if you give it a go.

I've got the exact same issue on my Qtek S100 running the 1.12 ROM (MMS ver 2.0.0.22). I'm not receiving MMS's from other people even if they're on Orange (same as me) but if I send an MMS to myself I receive it.
My phone has the keylock turned on, as with an SMS the phone screen comes on when someone sends an MMS but the phone doesn't download it. It doesn't seem to make a difference if I unlock my phone beforehand either :/

Bump, anyone else with this issue/a fix?

Tmobile's infamous MMS deletion problem on Treo Pro?

Well it appears to me that tmobile has a problem with Treo 750 users. It might be a firmware issue that causes the pictures to not come through to the 750. Either way, I'm sick of this. I have been looking at the Treo Pro and am fixed on getting on.
My question is, are there any Treo Pro users using Tmobile that had this MMS problem with the Treo 750? I want to switch to the Treo Pro, but if i'm going to still have the same problem, i don't want to shell out $400 for the pro.
Thanks

No worries mon!
And yes, I meant "mon."
Anyway, I have T-Mobile here in the U.S. and I've had no problems receiving MMS pictures. If you're not inclined to wait for Tier 3 T-Mobile Tech support, I can post the settings here. I'd do so now, but I'm at work as I'm typing this, so I can't really take too much time.

Well I don't have a Treo Pro yet. I really want one but am saving up. I have a Treo 750 and I cannot receive pic msgs and its so aggravating!
I am definitely getting the Pro though so if you could post them, I'd be thankful.

if you dont mind, i still need help with MMS. it deletes my messages and says to go to t-mobile.com... any help would be greatly appreciated

Bell Mobility does the same thing to me, they block MMS, and force you to goto their website.

well, i dont know if this will work for the treo pro, but my phone started to to this a little while ago, and i have a cingular 8525 unlocked on the tmobile network. for some odd reason, the phone will unregister itself as a phone capable of receiving pic messages, so all you have to do is send 2 pic messages to yourself, and then you should be able to receive them again. hope this helps...

MMS on Three- can send but not receive

Hi,
I have a problem with my mms.
I moved over to Three from virgin and now i can no longer receive mms messages. All the settings were setup when i put the new sim in and i rang 3 to confirm they were correct. They got me to send a mms to myself which worked and i received it. The problem is i can't receive anybody else's. 3 say there is not a problem because i can receive my own and all the settings are correct so I'm stuck. I can send mms no problems but not receive.
The only thing which might have affected it is i just finished porting my number today but i can still send so that should affect it.
Phone is a tytn ii on cooked 6.5 rom
Help please I've spent all night on this

update. i have found out that the only network i cannot receive from is tmobile/virgin so i believe i need to contact virgin and get them to delete my old profile from their network.
Does this sound right?

I found my answer in the end, some how the setting between t mobile and 3 had got messed up during the number port. Three and tmobile engineers sorted it for me.

delay recieving sms

sometimes i get my sms late, although it says the exact time the sms was sent, i still recieve it 2 hours later,
when i send an outgoing message, all my sms's come flooding in.. is there a fix for this.. is anyone else experiencing the same prob ??
i am on rom 1.66, official htc

what full rom version you using?
what network you on?
country?
has this been happening long time or recently?

it has been happening recently it was more common before the sms fix, its not all sms's just sometimes,and sometimes i dont recieve the sms at all
i am in uk, on o2 network, using the htc 1.66 rom, the one off the htc website,
i am SO close to selling this and getting an iphone

Give O2 a ring, I had this issue with my Nokia E90, and it turned out to be a corrupt message on their servers.

thanks mate,

dont think its the network mate, gave them a call.. cud it be the htc, becos the sms problems over the past are well known !

its a network problem genrally

delayed sms sound
I have similar problem on htc iolite since the new coocket roo303oom. The message sound is delayed to when i unlock my screen.

Im having exactly the same problem. Im on o2 uk and its really starting to get on my tits.
I sometimes get them an hour or 2 after they are sent, yet they are date stamped with the time they were actually sent. Did you manage to get to the root of the problem? I called o2 weeks ago about it and they just suggested i try a new sim, which they promptly sent me but it has made absolutely no difference. Is this a phone problem or a network problem?

Both of you on O2, I doubt it's got something to do with the phone.

sort of same issue with my HTC HD2 on Voda UK.
MEssages being sent or recived are not arriving on my phone!!
thinking of getting rid of phone now!!

just to annoy you mine works fine on virgin in the uk

Mine works fine on T-Mobile too

SMS delay
could somebody PLEASE find a fix for this !!!,

this is a widespread problem with htc's , if u google , late sms, you wil find, people on all networks are having this problem
i have contacted them and they say it could be the phone

Hi everybody,
I'm still experiencing this problem. That happened after the last ROM upgrade (see attached screenshot for current versions).
The message arrived a couple of hours later. Not it's about 24 hours or I don't receive the messages at all.
This might be a coincidence, but I often was browsing with Opera when the messages finally showed up.
I'm using Zenyee disable htc messaging 1.2 as I'm syncing with an Exchange 2010.
It's definitely not the provider, but the phone. I've put my simcard in a standard cell phone where the messages arrived in an instant.
Anybody got an idea?

It not the network, its a file in HTC phones. I havent been able to figure out what was causing it until now. I am 90% sure I know the culprit, but I am not 100% sure. I am on a TP2 and I just ran across this problem today after I installed a cooked rom I made, before everything was fine. I am in the process of testing this theory out. I should have a better idea by either days end, or at latest by tomorrow. I am testing 3 packages out at the moment to see if my theory is correct.
Will keep you posted.

I have the same problem too or sometimes I only get the text if I unlock the phone then I get 3 texts at once also sending text if it has more then 160 but less than 180 (i think ) then ppl don't seem to get my text weird no lol

I've had this problem in my HTC Trinity...
Fortunately I don't have it in the Leo...

MMS will not send

Hey all, I can recieve MMS just fine (does the slideshow thing though) and I can send MMS fine to, but, the people I send the MMS to do not recieve the mms...any thoughts? Is it my end or thiers??
thanks in advance

have the same problem.

Have you tried sending to yourself to test?

it depends what phones they have and if they have a data plan since some phones require data plan to send and receive photos (G1,mytouch, anything android) well at least on tmo thats how it works

im on the elegancia rom i can send and receive but when i receive them they come in very small. if i send one to myself thats like 300 it comes back as about 7k same from other people.
any help?

I have the same problem on my phone. I can receive pictures fine, but when i send them it says it was succesfully sent but no one gets them. When I send it to myself it works? any suggestions?
