Hi,
I have a HTC Touch with WM6 on it and yesterday I received a SMS message about a MMS that I received.
I tried to figure out the settings for MMS through my provider (Vodafone NL), through google and through this great forum. Unfortunatly I am unable to find the settings for MMS anywhere in my device.
All the MMS guides say:
Go to messages, go to options and then edit your MMS settings.
Unfortunatly I dont see MMS settings but SMS/MMS settings and the only two options I have are "use unicode if needed" and "request deliveryreceipt".
Anybody can tell me how to configure MMS settings on my WM6 HTC Touch device?
Greetz,
Sander de Rijk
you must have the new mms app just go to sms/mms and make a new mms choose custom, go to the menu or what ever two settings are on the bottom and look for mms settings (sorry for lot being to detailed right now i dont have my phone with me)
hope this helps you in some way
I am sorry but I dont quite understand you.
I only have the option to create a new email account (pop3 or imap) and I cannot choose MMS.
What kind of MMS app do you mean? A seperate install? Or do you mean another message provider like exchange/MMS/pop3?

sorry as i sed i did not have my phone with me but now i do and the mms app is what sends mms because it is separated from the sms sender
My mms settings are in the sms inbox and select menu and mms settings
if not try these
go to your sms inbox select menu go to new and select mms. Choose custom now select menu > options > MMS options.
that works fine, but its the configuration for receiving MMS messages
I received a SMS message from my provider that I should watch the MMS online on some website. Why cant I get it on my device directly?
When I look at the info at the provider they say that I should configure some sort of mms url. But I cannot configure that anywhere.
or am I missing the complete picture of MMS receiving?

this used to happen to my old motorola phone because the file was too big or it was not compatible (even that i knew it was) this is a network problem or try setting the size limit in the mms settings to the max you can on it but if you want higher try searching for the registry settings, search "mms size limit" or something like that
instead of all various configurations where I have to enter the URL of the MMS server it was quite easy: send an MMS and my provider automaticly configures my phone as MMS-capable

Hello,
I have this weird problem.
Hardresetted my device to make sure only the nice programs get installed. Installed the Orange.cab too, to make sure all the settings for orange netherlands will be used.
GPRS works good and so on.
Only problem is that i dont see the mms inbox icon in Messaging. Weird thing is that when i go to mms settings in the inbox all settings are shown as they suppose to be.
Anyone know whats up ?
I installed only the following cab's from ext rom :
Default_cdl_wwe_version.cab
Default_ie_view.sa.cab
Default_Imate_PPC_SA_V5.5.03.cab
I dont see info about the other cabs that need to be installed to make mms work, but i could be wrong. Any help is welcome !
Thanks !
Jeroen
This happened to me as well. I'm not sure I want to do another hard reset right now to try to get it back though.
I got my device running nice and fast now, even skype works perfect with nearly no delay so i dont want to hard reset again either.
But i would like to use mms lol
It's good to hear im not the only one with this issue.
By default (after a hard reset), there is no MMS account configured in messaging. Are you sure you have populated your provider's server info and set it as default (in mms configuration -> servers tab)? I believe after that was completed, that is when MMS showed up as an acct. in messaging.

Yes, it is configured there. I even created a new server, and then deleted the old one. Still no MMS account folders.
Same here.. all mms settings are configured, but still no mms inbox..
Hmm...couple more things to check (whether or not these affect the creation of an MMS acct. in messaging):
- Make MMS server connect via "the WAP network".
- Provide a valid WAP address/port in your proxy settings for WAP access.
(These are addt'l things that I had setup and I am getting MMS in my messaging app)
I think you need the cab file: Default_CAB-shortcut-CDL-08Sep05.CAB...that has the MMS app in it...
i cant receive pics or send them to any one, im on o2 contract, any help? before i ring o2.?
Have you been able to send and receive pics before? Or have you had this prob since owning the device?
If the latter, I believe you have to first send a MMS (on o2) before your number is configured to receive them. You need the following settings:
servername: O2UK
gateway: 193.113.200.195
port number: 9201
server address: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
find it in: messaging > MMS > Menu > MMS Configuration > "Servers" tab.
You should see "O2UK" listed, if not click new and create an "O2UK" account using settings above. If you do have O2UK listed then tap on it and check the details as above.
hi im using a new sim card with my exec so could it need activating?
i can get on the net ok, when some one sends me a pic it comes as a normal text and says log on to o2 to view your pic.
I think o2 are a bit like vodafone on this one. Until you've sent an MMS, they don't know you're phone is capable of MMS, hence you get links to your pics on their website.
Obviously you say you are having problems sending, so check your settings for MMS as posted above (you can also try port number "8080"). If they are correct, it might be worth giving o2 a ring, but in the meantime, if you have another MMS mobile, pop the sim in there and try to send an MMS. Once you've successfully sent one, the ones you receive should come through as intended.

Have you installed the corporate install rather than the personal/basic option?
I had the corporate settings and couldn't send or receive mms. When I rang O2 we went through all the possible settings before trying a hard reset and a personal install. After that mms worked fine. Unfortunately the engineer couldn't tell me which extra software was installed, which enabled mms.
Ah yes, forgot about that option. If you don't have any MMS folders under messaging it's likely you've set a corporate install (or has been preset for you).
If you have no MMS folders then you need to install another part of the rom.
First get Total Commander (good file explorer lets you access device rom files) from here:
http://www.ghisler.com/pocketpc.htm
you need the "tcmdpocketarm" download. Download, connect your xda to the pc then run & install.
Run Total Commander on your xda. In the top line of the progam where you see a "\", delete it all and type "\extended_rom\"
A list of rom files will appear.
Select one like "CAB_Shortcut_O2..." and select open, or run.
This will install the MMS folders and the nicer O2 phone dialler screen (and a couple of other bits, but still not *all* the o2 cr*p). Follow all prompts, then soft reset.
Under messaging you should now find an MMS folder along with "Text Messages" and "Outlook Email".
This helped me get back the MMS folders and settings, after which all was ok.
ok after talking to o2 3 times i get some one else on the phone and he said the mms had been removed from my sim card so he has set it up again, if some one now sends me a mms msg it comes in to my mms inbox and says downloading but after a bit it says my msg could not be received, same if i try to send a pic it says sending but after 3 times it says your msg could not be sent and puts it in my outbox.
the settings in the mms configuration/servers are the same as wot has been posted on ere.
wot box's should i tick in the preferances ?
I am having the same problem. I am in corporate mode setting but do have MMS in my Outlook section. The configuration is as stated above but it fails to download after 3 attempts.
Anyone have any other ideas?
enigma_uk even though the guy who asked the question, his query had nothing to do with your reply, MAN I THANK YOU THOUGH!!! i needed that info!!! lol
cheeers mate!
Hello,
i use Qtek9000 for 3 month, and till today i didnt worried about MMS because i never used. But today I had an idea to send an MMS message so I opened Messaging system, selected from MENU -> MMS Configuration and configured my QTEK with MMS parameters from Operator Site.
The problem that I experience is that after setting MMS I'm still no able to create an MMS, in Messagind didn't apear an account for MMS Messages.
Can someone explain me why? and maybe someone can upload an MMS Composer here. Maybe and update of my MMS Composer will solve the problem.
Thanks in advance,
SchumiX
no one can aswer my question?
i flashed a new rom today for the first time.. Windows Mobile 6 Professional Tri-Syndicate Edition by Antc and i have two questions.
One is when i try to compose new mms ,the windows ppc hour glass (colored circle) icon keeps going around like it is searching but never stops and i have to reset my phone. is there settings or something i have to alter to be able to send mms again.
Also , I am having a prob configuring my email... you know how on an official tmobile rom they have the set-up email cab and you can just click download settings for email and just select which ones you have and they will automatically add... how can i do this on this rom .. i dont know all the exact settings for my emails (aol and one for my college) is there a way to get the settings to automatically configure
Please help .. thanks very much!
use this cab it sets all the settings for mms that you need.
go to the mms settings and in the severs make tmobile mms the default
if you cant find the mms settings easily you may have the new mms composer so fallow these instructions
after you install make a new mms message and choose custom and go to menu> options > MMS options> servers> And make t-moble mms to default > ok> cancel message> and you are done
this will fix your mms problem
thanks a whole lot i mgonna try this now.. but i just realized my internet isnt workig eihter do you know the correct settings for the gprs?
Edit: nevermind after searching some more i found my answer just hoping the mms thing will work now
I've read a lot on the o2online.de page. but i cant find the settings menu in wm6. sms and mms are using one menu-point, not like in wm5 2 different accounts in messaging menu. i hope someone can help me how to setup mms configuration that i can download/receive and send mms messages. my girlfriend tried to send me a mms, but there comes a hint that mms are saved in incoming (posteingang) till setup mms correctly. and i also had an error that i am in roaming and can't receive messages from there. but my internet is working perfectly, also the email accounts, msn and so on.
hope somebody can help me.
thx in advance
