Cingular MMS Option Doesn't Exist - Help... - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

I have a 8525 w/ VP3g v3.60, 6GB.
I can't seem to find/figure out the mms settings for this beast. I've loaded Wpbears MMS cab and still can't see anything related to mms. I've gone to start>messages> and have looked everywhere. I see Text but nothing for MMS.
I called ATT and they said it's because I have a MediaNet plan. Somehow I think this is BS since he tried to step me up to a more expensive plan.
Can anyone shed light on how to set this up if possible?
Thanks.

T Mobile uk MMS server lost

My hermes has stopped sending/recieveing mms messages since i got back from the UAE.
Ive tried to input the settings from the website but strangly the server isnt being listed in the servers tab (tools, options, mms, servers) but the set as default key does change from grayed out once ive added the details.
Anyone got any idea whats happening here and how i might fix it?
Cheers
(BTW im running WM5)
I have a tmobile cab file which will enter ALL the tmobile settings for you.
I use it for after a HR on roms which arn't tmobile specific.
the only thing that it does a little wierd is it tries to set the MMS outgoing service to use the WAP connection rather than the GPRS connection.
this is an easy thing to put back right thought.
I can send it to you if you think it might resolve your problems.
regards
Tony.
PM me if you can't find it.
Thanks for the offer but i took the opportunity to upgrade to WM6 with the offical tmob rom.
Cheers any way

MDA MMS HELP!! Changing settings!

Ok, heres the deal. I have had my MDA for about 8 months now, and havent been able to figure out how to change the mms settings. I spent about an hour on the phone today with tech support for my phone company, and they think my phone is locked out(its not using a t-mobile sim). I have all the settings that I need to put in, it just wont let me create a new MMS account. What do I need to do to this thing to make it work? I tried searching the forums, but the results I get are too numerous to find anything....
Please help me!

My cellular company is IWireless, its a small carrier in Iowa, it works off of the T-Mobile network for nationwide, however, the MMS settings are off their own network. Im currently using the 2.26 T-mo rom again. I tried a WM6 rom(it was a TNT one), and the phone began acting extremely strange.. texts would get lost, I couldn't receive some calls, and I wouldn't get voice mail notifications... however, I could send and receive MMS (once I had the phone configured right)
I tried the CAB trej3k posted, and it didn't work. I have all the settings that I need to input into the phone, its just that I cant modify the settings in the MMS settings tab(the buttons are grayed out)
For now, I think I can live with having my phone, and no MMS, however, I would like to find someway to modify the phone still using the T-Mo 2.26 rom(works best with my carrier). Any ideas?
If you're willing to give it a try, install a newer ROM of your choice, and then replace your Radio ROM with one of the T-Mobile ones. I know you still want to retain your original ROM, but choosing a vanilla ROM with a low WM build number can usually get you a pretty stable device.
I'd recommend the UK 2.19 for you, it usually minimizes Missed calls, even on the US T-Mobile network.
I dont think that I can be doing any worse than what I have been for the last week... I was beginning to wonder why nobody was calling me, checked my voicemail, and I had 12... the phone never alerted me that I had voicemails(or that anybody called)...
There is no way, I take it, to work a way around T-mo's block on the MMS settings without flashing a new rom(again)?

Can't send/receive MMS on 8525

Hello, I've tried searching for info on this on Google, but all I found was info about unlocked for T-mobile service. So, I'm sorry if I didn't dig far enough.
A bit of an overview. I have the unlimited text/pix/vid plan on AT&T service (unlimited to any cell in the U.S. only). I am able to send and receive texts without issues. However, I cannot send or receive pictures or videos on my 8525. I also have a 32K-sized MMS from an Ntelos user -- which I need to fully download -- but when I attempt to do so, it doesn't finalize it. Also, where is a downloaded file stored, if it did download it to my 8525?
I've read that I need AT&T internet [MediaNet] on the AT&T.com forums, but is that really the case? I also read that even though picture & video files are included in my unlimited plan, I will still get charged per kb of the file size too; is that true? I have the AT&T internet blocked (so I don't get charged per kb of data when using Wi-Fi or when Wi-Fi isn't available, just to be safe).
Is there a setting I need to change to receive/send the pix/vids? Maybe a ROM to install? Do I have to have the accurate AT&T Medianet settings (as I deleted/altered them to fake settings on the 8525)? Is there just a "server" setting for the AT&T MMS, not the entire AT&T MediaNet? Is there anything else anyone can suggest so that I don't get charged per kb of data, such as using a Wi-Fi connection to send & retrieve my MMS files? Thanks in advance!
try this settings for att.
Thanks for the reply, zocster!
I read the websites that were linked. It seems that the MMS file has downloaded onto my 8525, but I can't seem to find it. The device said I needed to free up some memory (which I did) and the error message doesn't appear [which I take as meaning that the file has downloaded]. I do see some new files with today's date, but having the extension .mpb though. What extension should the files be in, and what program would read the file?
I'm still curious if setting the MMS to the MediaNet server charges per kb of the downloaded file or not. Anyone have an answer for this?
Internet Blocked = no MMS
If you have the Internet blocked, you can not send or receive pictures/videos/etc with AT&T.

I am on T-Mobile, have used a half dozen different ROMS and have no problems with my MMS.
Your TMobile Data needs to be set on epc.tmobile.com
Then go to the SMS tab, all messages, menu MMS Options. Go to TMobile MMS Server, the server address needs to be as follows: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
Then select Connect via: T-Mobile Data
I have yet to have a problem sending a MMS using this.
try this one.
had tons of problems too, with custom roms. this cab fixed all of them. install after the auto sim configuration sets to tmobile. credit goes to the ChrisGrundy, maker of the timor tmobile 6.5 rom. also sets send recieve limits to 1000k, per current tmo limits.
(hopefully this isnt the same cab you already tried...)
edit:seems to only work with standard messaging program, previous post worked for me with manilla messaging app, but have to manually increase send/recieve size limit.
Thank you for that but im still not able to download a message or send.. it says that the notification is going to remain in the inbox... I guess i might have to switch roms which really sucks.. i really liked this one lol

The fix posted by benttwig (which I made myself) is supposed to be run after the HTC connection setup wizzard. Also, it's meant for use in the USA T-Mobile network.
Do those conditions apply to you?
I just now tried to run the fix after the connection setup wizard and it still does not work. I am sure im doing it correctly but its just not working for me.. I too have T-Mobile but I may be doing something wrong...
*** Well i just re flashed the rom and now the MMS is working.. Thank you for your help

Mobilicity MMS

Hi I was wondering if anyone here knew about MMS settings for the new cellphone carrier in Canada called Mobilicity. They are similar to Wind Mobile. I read the forum on the O2 MMS settings, which helped a lot. However, i still cant get the Mobilicity MMS to work. Anyone have any suggesstions? Thanks
i'm gonna guess that this is you if not take a look lol
http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php/1652256-Mobilicity-MMS
o yea
O yea, its me, i'm askin in both spots. The O2 discussion earlier does help a lot, cause it goes in detail about the MMS menu. But even after putting in those settings from the howardforums help, it still doesnt send or receive
Have exactly the same problem as OP.
same problem .. i have samsung vibrant and i can't receive or send mms
i double checked my mms apn setting and it's all good
what is the solution ?!
Simple solution
Copy the settings from mobilicity webpage mobilicity.ca/uploads/phone-manuals/NexusOne-Guide2.pdf, the only different thing that you have to do is under Authentication type select NONE, by default says not set or something like that, that's what they forgot to pinpoint in the configuration, by doing this I was able to send mms without problem, hope it helps
Hi I just wanted to add that I also had the same problem and what solved it for me is that I was missing some info on the data side of the settings, but I still had data working regardless. My phone is HTC Sensation and I used all the settings provided by mobilicity on there web site on how to set it up.
http://mobilicity.ca/support/phones...MMS-picture-messaging-will-function-properly/
if the link above is followed correctly with both the data and mms settings put in exactly the same then there shouldnt be a problem. Oh and also on the HTC you have this setting asking for the authentication type which should be set to none.
Go read my post on how to fix it !
