Try the Orange web site... I think they have a autoconfig thing or at least the info.

I have Qtek 9100, and I recently upgraded my rom to 2.26.10.2 WWE. after the upgrade, I don't have any MMS capability. When I go to Messaging, then menu, there is no 'MMS Configuration' tab. No MMS anything even on my folder drop down list. I tried the Cingular MMS Cab that was posted. and that didn't work. GPRS and the internet connect just fine.
Any Idea?

I did
I did actually go to that forum first. I install the Cingular MMS Cab, and it didn't work. I still couldn't find the 'MMS Configuration' anything. I don't really know how to do the extended ROM stuff. I know how to set up the MMS configuration for cingular once I can get to it. But I can't even get to the setting.
:?:
Had a simular experience.
Recent hard reset and no Extended ROM anything. Didn't start up at all.
Now this is good and bad.
I have the GPRS settings done but am struggling with MMS
I believe i have the base settings correct but i am unable to set up an MMS account in the place where email, TXT and hotmail goes.
As you can see i am on Vodafone UK with a monthly contract
any help appreciated
I just had the same issue last night. Hard reset, and non of the customisations loaded.
So i loaded a new rom to it instead
I had the same problem when i first got my phone. It was because of my data plan. I believe the customization takes place by downloading. I didnt have the Cingular PDA Data plan. Im tryin to beat the system with just media max data plan. its cheaper and few texts are included! you may have to add the PDA data plan in order to get the custom installations.
Make sure you look under Menu -> Tools -> Options. MMS will show up in there, if you're using the CAB I posted. I'm still trying to figure out how to make it show up in the menu itself versus having to go through the above shenanigans. Maybe I'll revisit that today when I should be working instead.
well, I still have the same plan as before I upgraded my ROM. and it worked great. No data plan, just the media bundle (or whatever they call it hese days). After I upgraded the ROM, there's no MMS even when I go to menu->tool ->option ->new account , it just do the email setting again. This happened also the first time I got the phone, and someone from cingular send me the setting on air (smart message or something) and it opens the "mms configuration" tab under the menu list. Then it worked just fine until I upgraded the damn ROM. Do you think is a problem during ROM upgrade process? Will redoing the ROM upgrade help? I rather not do this again.
Thanks everybody!
Which CAB did you install from that thread? The one in Dr P's post, or the one in my post?
i installed yours. and actually, since I've been up all night trying to tinker with this, I actually found a fix posted by Molski. And It works now. It doesn't have the direct 'mms configuration" tab to get to the setting, but at least now MMS is in the folder list and I could set up things from there. It seems to be working fine now.
Thanks for all the reply and helps, and shout out to Molski too.
This is the thread that I was looking at just incase someone is having the same problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=59513&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=25
I still don't know why or what the problem was though. Will I have to go through the same thing again when I decide to upgrade the ROM in the future?
You shouldn't have to. And that CAB file I posted should have done basically the same thing. I can't figure out why it didn't. I know I use a slightly different one when I bulldoze my 8125, but if I remember it's because I included some personal settings in there. I can't remember now.. But I may go dig it up, and if it isn't, post it here as well..
Okay, I just looked at the CAB files, and I see what I did.
Basically, the one I posted there just has the settings to fix the resizing issue. It doesn't actually create the MMS folder.
I have another CAB that I use that does create the MMS folder, and then I do my actual settings in a CAB file I use with a bunch of different settings.
I think I'll merge the two CAB files together and post 'em.
what resizing issue was there? since I have installed yours before the other CAB, should I reinstall yours again?
Probably wouldn't have to, unless it adjusts the camera settings.
Basically, if you blitz your device, and don't install any of the Cingular customizations, you don't get MMS. THere's a CAB in the Extended ROM that if you do install it, you get MMS, but there is a sizing issue with images. For example, I may have sent myself an image sized at 90k taken with my phone to myself, but when I receive it, it's a thumbnail sized image at about 3k. With the settings adjustments in the cab file I made, it would be the full sized 90k image.
to avoid all this I sugguest u call cingular and get a data plan.. hard reset or update ur rom or whatever u wanna do. and see if the mms appears then. after that call them back and cancle that data plan... it worked for me
I have already fixed the problem using the fix posted earlier. I am still using the same plan as before, and it's working fine. I thought the data plan is for GPRS connection using a laptop, for example. Anyhow, I just use the media package from cingular and I have been able to access the internet using my phone.
can anyone guide me on how-to-make cab file for MMS settings, GPRS settings. i know i have to use the win ce cab manager but i need to know in details on how to make "MMS settings, GPRS settings" cab files.. thanks in advance..
It looks like if you're looking at carrier specific connection settings, you do it via an XML file. Based on the CABs I've looked at from the extended ROM on my old Wizard, that's about as far as I got.
There is an article on Microsoft somewhere that explains it and how to do it, but it was a little too technical for me at that time. I need to see if I can dig it up so I can read through it again.. I'll post here if I can find it.
Thanks sk0t, hope u can find it..
I'll go digging today once I get in the office. Don't much feel like working anyway this close to the holidays.
Many noobs keep asking how to setup Cingular WAP, My ISP, and MEdiaNet connections after their new ROM upgrade. I made a CAB file to make it easier. Just run the Cab and it does it for you.
I actually made it since I was getting tired of doing it manually after each HR, which most of us do on XDA. It was not rocket science, and I know there are members working on a nice GUI for ALL carriers WAP settings, this should help in the meantime.
EDIT: Uploaded wrong CAB. New one is good.
EDIT: Added CAB with Both WAP and MMS.
EDIT: Fixed w/MMS CAB to add the Cingular Settings as the default.
EDIT: Replaced with Fixed CAB for Exchange AS and the user/pass stick now. Also added OPEN DNS servers for quicker "locating"
EDIT: Added No ICON Change CAB as requested.

Wow, thanks wpbear, that will come in handy when I finally do decide to upgrade to WM6
Does this include the MMS settings?

Do you already have the Cingular settigns there and ran this over it, maybe the Reg Keys cant be written if you already have a Cingular setup or if you are just online at the time. I tested it by deleting my connetions and, since My ISP cant be deleted totally, I blanked all the info from it. Then ran the CAB and SR then I had my settings correct.
Also it is tested on Hermes only and the reg keys came from WM6. I can not test on WM5 right now.
I only set up the wap settings. I deleted that first then tried to run it.

I had just did a cleared storage so my phone was plain no settings ad I was unsuccessful also.n
I just re-uploaded a newer one, maybe I uploaded the wrong one or it was a bad transfer on my end. The new one is in the first post.
Check 1st post again for MMS.
That should do it the old one was 4kb
Cool. I am one of the quilty ones that did not know how to set it up so I definately appreciate it. I ended up figuring this out around 2am this morning.
But the downloads still seem a little slow. Im using 1.27 radio and XDA 0.20.1.
I noticed the MMS CAB didn't put the Cingular Setting as the "Default" in the new LVSW version so I fixed the second CAB.
Also I noticed that sometimes all the connection/modem settings are correct except the User name and Password sometimes do not stick. All the other info stays.
If it doesn't stick after the soft reset:
User Name: [email protected]
Pass: CINGULAR1
THESE ARE CASE SENSITIVE! Even adding this little bit is better than creating the entire connection every HR. I am looking at the CAB to see if I can make it better. Probably have to write an XML file to do, I hate those so...
Cannot install either

This is exactly what I need but I'm getting the same error. Tried running the Cab from main memory and from my storage card. Using LVSW on a TYTN - no settings currently exist so there's nothing to overwrite. Please help.
Edited: installing directly from this thread (rather then downloading and moving to my device seems to work)

I think these problems are from bad downloads. The ftp has caused this on other downloads for me latelty. A redownload fixed it on other cab I have tried. I had the problem on 8525software.com before too.

Tried your fix with wm6 on 8525 that you have and still get message current connection cannot be used. Any suggestions.
Trouble With Exchange ActiveSync
WpBear, I really appreciate you setting up these CABs. But I have to report a problem I encountered which caused me some major stress on Friday until I figured it out.
Basically after applying your settings CAB after flashing a new ROM, the first thing I want to do is set up Exchange ActiveSync with my work email so I can get over-the-air synch.
I had previously flashed Kyphur's WM6 ROM, entered my data settings manually, set up my Exchange synch manually, and all was working well for several days.
I ended up flashing Kyphur's ROM again and decided to take advantage of your Cingular Settings CAB to save a little time. Of course, foolishly I did not check out my Exchange synch assuming it would work. I went ahead and installed all my other apps and got the phone back into shape. Next morning (Friday) I noticed I did not have any work emails waiting on the phone - strange.
I then tested the Exchange synch and found it did not work. I was getting an ActiveSync error on the phone about needing a cellular connection to perform the synch (which took me several hours to find).
Bottom line is, no matter what I did with the MEdia Net or My ISP connections , I could not get rid of the ActiveSync error. The only thing I can do is reflash the ROM and enter data settings manually. I have already done this and confirmed it works - I can now synch over-the-air with Exchange again.
Anyway, I just wanted to put this message out there in case anyone else encounters this problem. Hopefully it will save them from the stress and panic I encountered for a while until I figured it out.
wap settings and activesync
I have the same problem. if I install the cingular cabs my active sync gives errors. have to use HTweakC with LVSW to keep data connection always on after manually setting carrier wap settings. but th problem is now my Cingular MediaNET MMS doesn't connect.
Same here, I have tried manual setup and the attached CAB files, both fail to give connection to Cingular MEdiaNet MMS when using LVSW.

I do hope you meant to say you were doing a hard reset (versus literally reflashing the ROM) each time you had to start fresh...?
If you are not using exchange server AS then check if you are username and password are entered. Thia was a mentioned problem I listed a few posts back. As far as AS exchange I do not use this since the agency I work for does not allow personal devices sync with theirs. I use POP3 and tested it this way.
I got my Cingular 8125 about a month ago, and I just recently noticed that I didn't have any MMS features available. So I contacted Cingular and they were absolutely no help, but I did figure out that my phone had a custom OS uploaded by the previous owner, and it said Molski.biz AKU2.3 (2.26.10.2 WWE) on the startup screen.
So I did some searching on here and found out that Molski creates some awesome ROMs for our phones, and I found a download link to upgrade to AKU3.3 that is supposed to have MMS support and all sorts of other cool stuff. I upload the new ROM as instructed, and the phone works but there are absolutely no differences between 2.3 and the new 3.3. The only thing that's different is the startup splash screen, it now displays a Windows logo and old one simply said Molski.biz in red letters.
The ROM version and everything else is still the same, and I have no MMS features, no Smartskey, extra themes, etc. that the new Molski ROM is supposed to have.
Can anyone help me?
Phone info (before & after AKU3.3 install is the SAME)
G3 HTC Wizard
ROM: 2.26.10.2 WWE
GSM: 02.25.11
SPL: 2.26
IPL: 2.26
Since you upgraded and only the splash screens changed and not the rom, it sounds like iti probably isn't CID Unlocked (so they may have used shell tool or something). What you should do is CID Unlock it just to be sure if you want to play with various custom roms (like Molski, Faria, and all the WM6 ones):

Now, with that said, if all you want to do is get MMS working, here's a cab for Cingular (I'm assuming thats who you have, you didn't say) that will get MMS going
That worked .. but I still can't download MMS messages when I receive them. It starts downloading but stays at 0% the whole time. I followed the guide on Cingular's website to setup their MMS options and the only thing I noticed is that my phone doesn't have the option to connect via MEdia Net for the downloads. Could that be the problem?

You do have to be sure you are operating with MediaNet with proxy to get MMS messages. Go to Settings>Connections>Advanced>Select Networks, hit the dropdown menu selection and pick Media Net rather than My ISP. Then go to Connections>Tasks>Set Up My Proxy Server and be sure that "This networks uses a proxy server to connect to the Internet" is checked. You can't get MMS if you aren't on MediaNet proxy!

Hmm .. it seems my phone doesn't have the MediaNet option on it. When I go to Connections>Advanced>Select Networks I only have My ISP and My Work Network .. no Media Net option available. I can rename the Work network to say MediaNet if that will work, but I dunno how to configure the proxy for MediaNet. Can anyone gimme the settings from the proxy server?
Try installing this cab and see if it gives you MEdiaNet as an option.
BTW: per a post from Dr. P I saw here, I now keep both this cab and the one I posted above (as well as others) on my SD card so if I have to hardreset or when I switch roms, I can quickly put these settings back on my phone.
I think I found them .. is this it?
