I finally have my Atrix (and love it), however there is something I noticed today that did NOT work: I cannot receive or send MMS.
It seems that in their eagerness to lock it to AT&T, motorola have removed MMS settings from the messaging app, and have locked the MMS settings to use only AT&T. Which is a bit of a problem, with me being in Singapore.
I already tried doing the access point setup and everything, but it just will not work.
Has anybody else outside US got MMS to work for them? If yes, how?
Never mind guys, I solved it. For Singapore M1, the settings need to be as googled, with two APNs:
1) "sunsurf" (no mms settings!), APN type "default"
2) "miworld", APN type "mms"
It seems the phone switches between the APNs for MMS sending / retrieval, which may take a few seconds. I thank m1 for their messed-up MMS settings... NOT.

have you tried setting the APN type as "default,mms"? (Wihout the quotes, obviously)
*edit* from another forum ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-625061.html ), it seems your settings should be:
1) apn internet
mcc 228
mnc 03
apn type: default
2) apn wap
proxi 192.168.010.002
port 8080
mcc 228
mnc 03
apn type: mms
i m trying now i will give u a feeedback asap
no. it doesn't work still searching....
Yeah, it surprised me that there is no MMS proxy or MMSC... there needs to be. Look at http://www.activexperts.com/xmstoolkit/mmsclist/ , maybe that helps?
>> MMSC http://192.168.151.3:8002 <<
I already tried all the possible combination for a correct apn make me crazy the only things now is trying to root the phone perhaps it helps
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
no, i allready rootet the phone and it is not working.
I'm on Swisscom.
I try Go SMS with the extra settings for MMS ... nope, not working :-(
The MMS is basically setup via APNs. The MMS settings there (MMS center, MMS proxy, etc.) need to be correct. For me, there even need to be two separate APNs for MMS and web. You could ask your network provider to push them to your phone, maybe that helps. Just say you have an Android one.
I am sorry to hear it does not work for you guys in Switzerland. I am not there, so a bit limited what I can do...
No prob buddy thanks to help,
i do a second apn just for the mms but it was what i tried from the beginning... i don t know , this phone isn't be regonnized from orange to be set.... i don 't know.
And i m back in us so i must wait 2 months before trying a new solution but still thinking...
If you can post some picture of your phone setting nobody knows,
Ok one more possibility... GingerBlur comes with its own apns-conf.xml . You could try pushing that to your phone without installing gingerblur. Make sure you back the previous file up first, though!
yeah perhaps but i still locking deeper where att set the phone's apn not so much time this week but i m trying ...
hi i found sms and mms configuration, but becareful change will effect after restart the phone

i change some value and help me to be able to sent mms
here what i change
sms_force_7bit_encoding = 0 <- this will enable more language i think, couz after i change this i be able to sent and receive chinese and japan language.
supl_pref_apn = indosatmms <- this apn title on apn setting , /still iam not sure what is the correct value, couz original value are empty
supl_carrier_settings_enabled = 0 <- this iam not sure , what i thought is it will auto configure mms / sms setting base on supl_* property

It appears this nice device (or at least all of WM5 devices) are not yet enough considered from SP as I cannot find any setup and/or settings for MMS and WEB connection settings anywhere...
www.clubimate.com only supply any kind of settings for any other SP but VODAFONE ITALY...
Their support (I-Mate) is also not present (I even tried calling them while in Dubai with no luck).
At VODAFONE Customer Service there are only chances to use the automated answering system or the website and again no one of them considers WM5 devices...
ANY HINT ???
With manual settings I entered I can do MMS -OR- WEB but I cannot get it configured to "automagically" use one of the two when needed. I always have to manually switch between them... :-(
Again: ANY HINT ???
Thanks a lot.
Hi Michele,
I am Italian too. Why do you switch them manually? In Connections/Advanced, the default connection should be not be the MMS one, but the internet one (APN: web.omnitel.it). The one used for MMS will be defined here but NOT selected as default. This needs to be indicated in MMS configuration in the Messaging application.
The problem that I have (with a Worldwide English K-Jam) is that I just can't make MMS work. I have tried all settings based on Vodafone Italy indications, but no joy.
Would you tell me your detailed settings to make it work?
Thanks.
Massimo
..
Thanks for this!
This is however not suitable for me, as I live in two countries (UK and Italy), and I do not want to hard reset just to fix my Italian MMS settings.
Would you be able to just give me your Voda IT MMS settings?
What I have done is:
1) Created a new connection with APN = mms.vodafone.it (everything else is default)
2) Created a new set of MMS settings in the MMS application, with:
Gateway = 10.128.224.10
Server = http://mms.vodafone.it/servlets/mms
Port number = 80
Connect via = the above created connection
WAP version = with this I am unsure, I tried both settings, but no joy.
With these settings, the phone tries to send or retrieve MMS's, correctly connecting to the APN and exchanging data. However I always get a vague error message in the end.
Can you let me know what you have done differently?
Thanks.
..
Many thanks for this!
I modified the config based on your comments. At a later stage I also went into the registry and manually modified some settings that looked different in your list. Still no joy!!!
:roll:
I am particularly puzzled by the Profile parameter, pointing to an XML file in a website. You claim this is very important. The default one points to a different XML file.
Question: how would the messaging application use this info? I mean, it is not possible to go out to the web using the MMS APN, so how is this Profile URL used?
I also tried to soft reset after changing that, still no joy....
..
..
Thanks for your great help.
Just to clarify, I normally live in the UK, but in this period I am in Italy, this is why I am configuring MMS on my Italian SIM card from Vodafone Italy.
And I've got very good news: everything now works!
I am not really sure how, I simply reset everything back to my original config, doing a few soft resets in between, and now I can send and receive MMS's.
By the way, that IP must only be used in the Gateway field in MMS configuration. Using it as the IP in the connection panel makes it impossible for the phone to connect to the APN (which is logical).
Again thanks for your help.
Hope some one can help i recently flashed to 2.2 but had no data connection now i flashed back to 2.1 hoping this would sort out my prob but still no data. When i go into phone status it says-mobile network state=disconnected. Can anyone please help me. Im on vodafone ireland and i sent the wap settings from samsung mobile website but no joy .
My APN settings are as follows
Name - Vodafone Live!
APN - live.vodafone.com
Proxy - Not Set
Port - Not Set
User name - Not Set
Passwrod - Not Set
Server - Not Set
MMSC - Not Set
MMS proxy - Not Set
MCC - 272
MNC - 01
Authentication type - Not Set
APN type - internet
yeah, you need to set and configure your APN settings
thanks for the settings lads but it still says my data connection is disconnected? Any ideas?
Make sure you use the correct APN, sometimes PAYG APN's are different from contract ones.

Hey guys,
I was using andriod for awhile via SD, then I switched over to a NAND install of it.
On any install of Android I've used, I've been having problems sending / receiving MMS.
I have the following APN settings plugged into my phone, but obviously something is not right with them.
Can someone who has Android running on their T-Mobile US phone that has MMS working please chime in and let me know what settings you have used.
I've search and found several variations of the settings, and I've tried every one I can find but nothing is working so far.
Here is what I currently have :
NAME : T-Mobile US
APN : epc.tmobile.com
PROXY : 216.155.165.050
PORT : 8080
USERNAME : none
PASSWORD : none
SERVER : none
MMSC : http://mms.msg.english.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS PROXY : 206.155.165.50
MMS PORT : 8080
MMS PROTOCOL : WAP 2.0
MCC : 310
MNC : 260
AUTHENTICATION TYPE : none
APN TYPE : none
Like I said above, I've tried others settings that are simular to my current ones but nothing has worked so far. I as well tried calling T-Mobile to get the APN settings from them, but they will not release them to me over the phone for whatever reason.
My 3G is working great, and I can send/recieve normal text messages. Just the MMS is not working correctly (pics, video, sounds, etc).
Thanks for any help

on a side note, it would be nice to know what each setting is for. where can I find that info at?

well first of all, this should be:

MMS PROXY : 216.155.165.50 (not 206.)
and on my data connection at least, i dont need to set the proxy or port for the apn (the two above mms, i just leave them blank)

This is due to tmobile not being able to identify the phone and because of such is limiting MMS size to 2kb or something? I am currently looking for a fix to this..have not seen anything. Thankfuly the pics you send are recieved in full resolution
i belive you edit: root\system\etc\mm_property.conf and change: "wapprofile=(whatever its set as)" to: wapprofile=http://www.htcmms.com.tw/Android/Common/NexusOne/ua-profile.xml
the wap profile is what your provider uses to identify what device your using and resize the images correctly for your device while in transit.

Thank you for this info
I was having the same problem, I entered the info you provided and now I'm able to send and receive mms.
thanks again
Ok I have found where to put this info but how do you pu the info there?
Here are the files to push to the phone, use adb shell.
Forewarning, this may not work, not because the files are incorrect, but because other then these files being there during initial setup, they dont always take.
I recently switched to zip roms (Using Clockwork Mod) which gives you the ability to change these files in the zip rom before flashing and loading to the phone. So far its the only method I have found to work.
But your all more then welcome to the files.
I dont remember which post I got them from, but no credit goes to me other then attaching them to this post.
These files fix the MMS re-size problem, the blurry pix sent problem, the recieving size problem, Picture size options: 300, 600, 1024, And all the APNs possible for near all phones.
I'm a noob so how do we do this step by step!! Thank in advance. I am running the zip Jaws-MIUI.

Take the rar you just downloaded and unrar it, after unraring it zip the files using rar and compression using store mode. name the zip update.zip, go into clockwork choose update.zip, and it should install the updates from my understanding.
In this form, it just may install and work correctly. post back with results.
I uploaded it and still nothing. I can send a pic to everyone except this certain person who is on att network.

I'm going crazy with the question of the MMS in this build of American Android. I'm from Spain and my phone company Telstra (yoigo). I tried everything I've read but can not send or receive MMS. The APN is correct. Not if the problem is the build or in Spain we have to change any line of buildprop. I would appreciate answering me to post it in my country.
Thanks
make sure max message size is not set above 300k
ROM default mismatch some APN data.
Try correct your APN data.
For example, in my case: MMSC rom defaul was h t t p://202.222.042.204:8002
but MMS only starts to work using h t t p://202.222.42.204:8002
Follow and type your APN data.(the correct one for your country and carrier etc)
Look carefully for any differences betewen rom default and carrier request.

The APN is correct. I have no problems with other builds. I come to think that only works in U.S.A. so I tried to change the DNS in the buildprop. This has not solved the problem. I connected and disconnected and have exclusive 2G connection on and off wifi as I read in a previous post. Neither works. Thanks for the reply. Can you think of something else?

i dont just mean teh message is actually smaller than 300k, i mean that the setting 'max mms size' is set to 300.
I cant find this particular setting in my rom, lol, but ive seen it given as a solution twice recently, I suspect the roms in question are using the tmobile 1000k default size, and those threads have reference to a max mms size setting in their mms settings screen.

MMS requires Mobile Data on
Hi,
I can send and receive MMS as long as Mobile Data is on. However, adding a MMS APN does not work; when Mobile Data is off, MMS can't be sent or received.
I've verified the Netcom Norway MMS APN settings to be correct, and this works on my LeeDroid 2.2.1 configuration. For Cyanogenmod, this does however not work. I've verified this both on my DHD (CM 7.0.0) and HD2 (CM7RC4).
Too bad, as I configured the HD2 for my gf, but she does not have a data plan...
Thor
I can also confirm on hy Desire GSM on Telstra running CM7 stable that you can only send/receive MMS if mobile data is enabled.
Can anyone say if this standard/expected behavior for Android roms on Telstra?
Today i had a problem where i couldn’t send MMS messages using my SGS Android phone. Im currently running Cyanogenmod nightly 181 so i went looking for a fix.
This is what worked for me:
1. Download root explorer (It costs a few $ from the market, but well worth it) or an equivilent and give it root priviledges.
2. Locate the following file, telephony.db: /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db
and
/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db
3. Rename the file. (e.g xxtelephony.db.xx) or delete it (I deleted it)
4. Restart your phone
5. Now try sending an MMS.
That solved my problem and i can now send MMS messages again. This fix may also work for other roms, so give it a try if you’re experiencing problems.
I had the same issue in my Desire S (Saga) with CM7. Send/Receive MMS only with enabled Data APN. I tried to delete the telephony.db and restarted my phone. After the reboot mms works fine, but they set my Data APN back to default (i renamed the apn to be sure that the data connection is disabled). I renamed it again. After the reboot also the telephony.db is back.
My first test was positiv, i now can send / receive MMS. Hope that this will not change.
Hi There,
Sorry if it's been answered but thread searches yielded only similar but not
definitive answers.
I'm running American Cyanogen 7 ROM April 10 version on my HD2.
Everything works perfectly except for the fact that I need to switch between MMS APN and Internet APN when I want to do either task.
I seldom send MMS' but would like to know whether I'm doing something wrong or is it just something we have to live with?
eg. I've got my data connection on, running the internet. If I want to send an MMS at that time, I then need to enter settings and change my APN to Optus MMS.
note: Once again, nothing wrong with my APN settings individually but wondering if I've missed a step where they both work in tandom?
Thanks in advance,
zee
Look at "apn type"
In the data one, it should be "default,supl " or perhaps "*" or maybe just "default"
It should not say mms in there.
Now in the mms one,(and the prob is likely to be here since you shouldn't be able to select an mms apn manually) it should ONLY say "mms"
When you change it to just say mms, the radio button showing it is selected should vanish.
now the phone will know to use one for data and one for mms automatically.
Thanks a million samsamuel!
