Hi
I have a question about the Mms.
I have my phone connected thru a exchange server and when someone send me a mms the phone cant connect to recive it, i must disconnect the exchange uplink=(internet).
Is it just me or can i change something on my phone to get the mms working at the same time i have the internet exchange online...

Exchange ActiveSync & MMS
Hi Asik,
I have the same problem with MMS and Exchange Sync. When you have set MMS to automatically download, the X1 will try a few times to download the MMS without notifying me and after 8 days (in my network), I get the message that the MMS timed out and I'm no longer able to get it - VERY BAD
If you set the MMS to download manually, you will get notified that a new MMS is there! You can then click on "Download". The X1 then shows a message that it needs to disconnect Internet and connect to the MMS APN. You have to say "Yes" on the right Menu Now! Then, the MMS gets downloaded and afterwards, Internet gets reconnected for Exchange ActiveSync. Not very beautiful, but at least a workaround.
Does anybody knows of a better way?
Ok, so its not just me that have this problem....
I also use the above metod to get my MMS and it sucks that i cant get them auto to me...
Help us out here guys... this cant be the way to do it or ???

Exchange ActiveSync & MMS
Hi Asik,
another solution would be to use the same APN for Internet and MMS. Unfortunately, this does not work for me and probaly for most of us because:
My Provider has seperate APN's for MMS and Internet:
With the Internet APN, I cannot access the MMSC to download or send messages.
With the MMS APN, I can access both, Internet and MMSC, but it get's disconnected automatically after receiving an MMS or after about 2 Minutes. With this, ActiveSync would reconnect every 2 Minutes and this would be quite expensive, because a new 20kB Block would be charged and never used bevor the next disconnect.
The Telco's should provide an Internet APN that doesn't disconnect and also allows to connect the MMSC.
I think its the same for my provider...Telia Sweden

hey ive got orange gprs to work finnaly im still stuck with getting mms to work wondered if anyone is using the wizard on orange and has managed to get the mms settings to work. cab files dont seem to work and manual setting seem to just as useless all help is appriciated.
Have you tried these - reliable source
Data Bearer GPRS - connect via my isp
Access Point Node (APN) (server name) orangemms
User ID Orange
Password Multimedia
Port number 9201
IP Address (gateway) 192.168.224.10
MMS Message Server http://mms.orange.co.uk/
I cannot receive MMS fro Orange. I'm told by them that this is aproblem that they have had for some time and no answer is in sight.
Orange - they seem to employ people on work expreience !
Sometimes I wonder how Orange keep their customers. They have such a robust cellular system that seems to work even in caves and IMHO is the best network with the worst support and full of employees giving misinformation. If you hit a good technician then its OK but the telphone support staff must just read off computer terminals.
I have had MMS working on Orange since the Wizard came out.
1. Go to Comms
2. Go to Conections
3. Go to manage new connections under top group of settings ie not My Work Network
4. Click on new, then enter
Name for new Conection = anything you fancy
Select a modem = Cellular Line GPRS
Access point name = orangemms
User name = DO NOT PUT ANYTHING HERE
Password = DO NOT PUT ANYTHING HERE
and do not put anything anywhere else in these setup pages.
The auto switching does not seem to be reliable so I select my mms setting as above before using it. Then try sending an mms if it goes into an outbox try resending it from there. I think you have to persevere a few attempts but if you try the above it will work. I have a T-Mobile unlocked but with all original software and addins.
Hope this helps
Kindest regards

i got frustrated thinking mine didnt work. I find that if i have been connected to the orange world internet gprs, i cannot then send or receive mms until i soft reset. It then works every time never fails.
Every time I send an MMS, GPRS usage appears on my O2 online bill.
Does anyone else have this?
On my i-mate JAM I've set messenger not to connect automatically. I'm not sure what else could be causing the data transfer on my phone, so I'm wondering if it's at O2's end?
I've emailed them with this query, but they keep anwering with irrelevant replies. :roll:
Thanks in advance!
MMS messages are sent via GPRS. Well at least, mine are and I'm on O2!
As of March/April, O2 are now charging for GPRS useage. Prior to that (one of their operativies told me) they did not have a suitable billing system in place.. now they have. My mate got stung with a large bill back then!!
dood is right they have started charging for gprs usage but your mms is sent via gprs but on a diffrent settings your browser uses mobile web and you get charged for gprs the mms doesnt and you should not be getting charged for it.
check your mms setting and make sure its not set to connect to mobile web to send your mms
you should have these settings
server :02UK
gateway:193.113.200.195
port:9201
server address:http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
try that

Thanks. It was set to connect via "The Internet" so now I've changed it to O2. I'll see how that goes. 8)
I'm new to this, and well - when I'm connected to either to WiFi or GPRS, i get a window pop that asks me this:
" In order to send/download MMS, the current active connection must be closed (this may affect other application in use). Do you want to continue? "
Is there any workaround to this? (as in auto connect perhaps?) It's just that I get quite a few MMS and it's a bit annoying. I have always-on GPRS connection because of DirectPush, so I get this message every time I get a MMS.
you said you are always online. check the name of the connections. this name you have to write in the options of the mms connections. so the message will gone
The same problem here to...
for my internet connection i have a apn setup under my isp which i use for internet and directpush....and i have another connection setup under my work network which is a proxy apn and used for mms only....and i cant use the my isp apn as two are diffrent for mms and internet now when a mms came i need to do disconect the connection by clicking yes everytime...
does there have any work around that the disconect-downloading mms and again reconecting to my isp will occure automatically???
Does anyone have any experiance in using P3600 in USA with T-Mobile? In particular, I am having hard time getting to Internet and receiving MMS messages.
Because of the specifics of the USA cell and PDA market, getting a PDA working with a service provider (if you don't buy it from the service provider itself) can be tough. I have set up my Trinity to connect to EDGE, it shows the "E" on the top of the bars, but it still has a hard time browsing the Internet. There is not much help offered on their website, so I was hoping may be someone has had an experience setting it for T-Mobile.
Any help would be appreciated.

you'll probably have to call T-Mobile and get their MMS and internet settings, or it might be somewhere on their website.
I have set it according to their instructions here: http://support.t-mobile.com/knowbase/root/public/tm21625.htm?
That shows my phone connected to EDGE by I am still not able to access the Internet.
I've just spent a week in the USA with my Orange M700 - everything worked fine, probably gonna have some horrible roaming bills though as it's still on the original orange account
I'm in the US on T-Mobile, no problem with Internet. The only thing I had to do was enter the server address -- internet2.voicestream.com, and all works.
MMS has been a bit more trying. I do get inbound notifications of MMS coming in, but haven't played around with it enough to get it working. Then again, I don't use MMS so it hasn't been a pressing issue. I'll play with it tomorrow and see what I get.
dada21,
Connecting to internet2.voicestream.com helped! Thank you.
On T-Mobile website they were suggesting connecting to wap.voicestream.com and using a proxy server. But once I took out the proxy server and used the server you suggested it worked fine.
With the MMS messages- yes, I get only the inbound notifications too. Don't get the actual message.
Glad internet2 worked for you.
Getting MMS working was a *****. Here's what I did:
I set up a new connection under "Work" to wap.voicestream.com
Under Messaging, MMS, settings:
Gateway: 216.155.165.50
Port: 9201
Server address: http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
Connect via: Work
Sending size limitation: 248K
WAP version: WAP 1.2
I received MMS perfectly but didn't test sending yet.
Let us know how it works for you.
ey y'all
i'm havin sum questions bout the MMS settings, on my HTC Touch
when i tried sending an MMS message earlier with a picture & msg in it, my phone automatically connected to my provider's data connection to send it.
I don't want this.
I opened the provider settings, to try n change it n get it 2 work thru WiFi... can someone help with that?
Here's wut i gotta enter:
-Server name: Internet?
-Gateway : .. ?
-Port number: ..?
-Server address: ?
-Connect via: The Internet (or my ISP?)
-Send limit: 300K
-WAP Version: WAP 2.0
it can only be don if the operator alow access from the normal web some only allow access from the servers the phone have access to from the phone
what's your provider?
And how m i supposed 2 get allowance 2 use wifi i'm not callin those bastardz dey wan me 2 use their data connect!
I'm in Canada, n my provider is Rogers
I don't know what to tell you in that respect. I'm pretty sure MMS requires data on any phone. Even if not, HTCs are made especially for data usage...
wit my old nokia, i cud send MMSes without ever havin 2 connect 2 no GPRS... quite surprisin =S
Actually the MMS mode on nokias used a specific GPRS connect which was invisible to normal use. It used an MMS access point
but i wouldn't get charged for any 'data' connection... just the MMS cost
from what i know, is that MMS's are charged not by data but MMS itself.
example, sending an MMS cost's u only the MMS price (data not included).
maybe providers are different, donno.
