htc hero MMS problem

i have a unlocked sim free HTC hero that i am currently using on AT&T, whenever i try to send an MMS it shows the message pending symbol on the top right of the message and it stays like that for at least an hour and then it finally tells me that the message could not be sent. i have added AT&T's access point name if that makes any difference...

What APN settings are you using? Are you able to receive MMS messages?
i am using the AT&T sim from my iPhone and have read that AT&T has mms disabled. Not sure if this is true. Below are the apn settings I am currently using.
Name: AT&T
APN: wap.cingular

I'm not using a sim from an iPhone so it should be working and those settings are exactly what im using

Make sure your Wi-Fi is off. I also have AT&T and my MMS only works on my Hero when I turn off my Wi-Fi. I can only hope that the rumors of AT&T 3G bands being hidden by the firmware can be true, because it is a ***** having to constantly turn my Wi-Fi off to receive an MMS.

Oh , ok problem solved .

thanks uultramann switching my wi-fi off fixed the problem, but your right that is a hassle, and if the AT&T 3G bands are hidden does that mean there will be some sort of update for the hero to get those bands or am i completely off target?

Does anyone know for T-Mobile USA? Everything works except for MMS!

this is my setup, i can send and recieve mms with no problems how this will work for you guys...

I can receive mms but there is a download button in the mms... once i click on it, it downloads it but i dont know where it is stored... help

for those of you having to turn Wifi off to get their MMS to work, instead of leaving the APN Type blank, try setting it to 'mms' (without the quotes obviously, and all lower case)
that should solve the issue for you.

If you have the Telus version then yes.

Will Pay Cash 4 who ever helps and gets my MMS to work - ($20US)

I know, everyone wants to tell me to search for it. But honestly, have you tried to "search" for it? When I go looking, I find everything but a decisive answer on how to do what I would like. SO if you'll bear with this LONG post. You'd not only be helping me, but others possibly. Sorry for the long posts... People hate reading them... I just want some simple help... without getting slapped down for not being able to find all the info I need from "searching" the forums. Pppppplease (says roger rabbit)
Not that I think it matters. I'm in the USA, running the HERO on a GSM Edge network (CellOne or CellularOne - aka: chinookwireless.net).
IF anyone out there knows how to get MMS working on CellOne (cellonenation.com) on this phone... (I LOVE YOU! and would pay a small amount of cash ($20) even to you if your info "works" via paypal - I'm an honest fellow... trust me you'll get the money).
I've tried to fanagle the settings on http://www.cellonenation.com/support/ they have a link near the bottom of the page "What if you have a smart phone? (CLICK HERE)" (multiple HTC phones, none are andriod). But with no success.
Current APN Settings on the HERO HTC that I've got working Phone, Internet and SMS are:
Name: internet.chinookwireless
APN: internet.chinookwiress.com ( this APN is all I need to get internet and SMS working )

None of those MMS settings in with various combination changes seem to matter (still nothing works). I've contacted my provider and they won't support my phone as they don't sell it. MMS is turned on and part of my calling plan, I've confirmed that. The phone was ordered from Buy.COM vendor in the US it is factory unlocked. Help?
One final thing to request... The internet on CellOne is either REALLY, REALLY slow (up to 30 seconds just to load google.com (mobile version)) or there must be a better radio driver out there? How to on that would be grand as well.
Phone was purchased beginning of August 2009.
HTC Hero (the actual phone, not just the ROM)
Firmware: v1.5
Kernel version: 2.6.27-8dd6dee

Software version: 1.0.0.A6288
HERO CVT SHIP S-ON
HBoot 1.76.007 (HERO10000)
MicroP-010f
Touch Panel-syn0104
RADIO-6.35.06.18
I've "rooted" my phone (using "Recovery-RA-HERO-v1.2.2.img" and "flashrec-20090815.apk" - as I got told I couldn't install "flashrec-1.1.2-20090909.apk" by the phone when I tried to install it), and also used the SDK adb to push and allow permissons for su and superuser.apk.
The instructions (and videos) on theunlockr.com seemed to help me with that, and I'm a total NOOB. As now that's where I'm at. Not much further.
Why don't I try a custom ROM? Well when I did that (Madacco's Custom ROM - http://android.modaco.com/content/h...2/03-09-hero-roms-radios-in-update-zip-format )... my SMS quit working all together. Since that's a "pretty nice feature" to have... I stepped back and went to the manufacturers ROM update that was just released. It seemed I got all the "speed" of the recent Madacco ROM and my SMS worked. I am willing to even try another custom ROM as long as I don't loose functionality of what I've already got to solve my MMS problem...
Help please

hello,
two things
1)I've contacted my provider and they won't support my phone as they don't sell it <= you can get a mms cellphone who is selled by this carrier, to find out were is the problem with technical support help.
2) use an other phone to make some tests : send an mms to your mobile with a standard mobile to test e/r. if it work in the two ways, it must be the mobile settings.
try that and come back to tell us
(sorry, i'm french and not very good at shakespeare's language )

Yes, that is two separate APNs. Mainly because wapgw.chinookwireless.net looks like an APN to me, And no network in the world that i have seen has anything in the server field!!
And yes, you DO need to set the APN Types.

Unlucky that you live in the country of the LATE MOBILES>... apples owns your ASS and you are screwed, apple and AT&T cannot even get that right.....
Sorry in that kind of mood.

thank you
Pm me your paypal id. I owe you 20 bucks! It worked... thank you.

Cheers anyway though.

Rooted HERO Thx
Hello,
I have rooted my Airtel HTC HERO.
My problem was, i couldnt start the mobile in recovery mode from command line of my windows[fastboot boot recovery.img command]. so i booted my mobile in recovery mode[home+power button] and then i used the adp command to root my mobile as given in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=543571.
Regards,
Muthu

go ask in that thread then, instead of trying to hijack an old dead one regarding a totally different topic.

Same Issue Windows Mobile 6 Pro
I hope there's still enough life left in this thread. I cannot get any settings to work for MMS on Cellular One MT. I've used all the cellonenation pdf's and all the access settings that I've found on this thread and other similar threads. Still not quite sure what I'm doing wrong. I'm running a somewhat odd phone, a Techfaith Cynthia 850 (sitronics 850). Everything seems to be mostly stock wm6, but still having mms issues. Cellone says it's turned on, but none of the settings I've tried have done anything.
Any suggestions anyone can give will be welcomed.

Problem with AT&T and MMS

hehe so... got my happy self onto CM6 and fiddled around with some MMS threads here and there and everywhere to find out the APN settings... No dice on MMS

Then after saving it, I power cycled it and once I came back It's all good
hehe don't mean to be all repeatitive with the threads on the board kinda had to rip the settings from my t-mo wing.

[Q] Can someone please help with gps

The problem is that my gps doesn't work, nor does my data. I'm really new at this and i was wondering if anyone knows an easy fix to the gps/data problem that I am having?
Any suggestions are welcome, but be advised that im still new to this.
Thanks in advance to any help.

Is there anyone that can help?

Oh btw I am running a dual boot of WP7 and Android. The WP7 is the first dft release and the Android is from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=944288
So is anyone out there that can help me?

The question is: what have you tried?
apn settings etc etc.... more info needed

The apn settings are as follows:
Name- t-Mobile US
APN- epc.tmobile.com
Proxy- 216.1551.165.050
Port- 8080
Username- none
Password- ****

MMS port- 8080
MCC- 310
MNC- 260
Aunthentication type- not set
APN type- default,supl,mms
I really don't know what else there is to know, but these are the settings that came with the build. I haven't tinkered with them at all.

UPDATE:
I just figured out that the gps does work but the data connection will just turn off. Now i dont know what would cause all of this. If some one can shed some insight on the fix for this i would be grateful. Some one please help?

Do you have data enabled over network?

thnx ill try them now, i already tried the first one and for some reason the data just turns off on its own when using the WP7 it wouldnt. I dont know if its something with the roaming or what. But thanks for your input

Ok, from what i have been trying it seems to me like this has something to do with the rom. I have searched the thread on how to dual boot and i havent fpund this issue brought to light.
Recently i've been pretty much copying other t-mobile phones' apn settings but with no avail. So if there is anybody out there that has had the same issue or found a fix, please contact me asap. This is getting on my nerves....

My MMS has stopped sending. Any suggestions?

MMS stopped sending pics a day or two ago. Does the 'sending spin dance'.
Any suggestions really appreciated.
Thanks

Check your MMS settings to see if they are correct for your carrier

I'm using Att and just have 'automatically select preferred network'

I had the problem last month. Try typing phone number manually no dashes or brackets. If it goes through just use the contacts cleanup App and fix your contacts.
Mike

have you checked the actual APN settings for our carrier? I have had it in the past when the settings get messed up.
Settings>Wireless&Networks>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names>select your APN which I assume is called ATT (or maybe Cingular by the looks of the settings I found on net) and check the settings are correct, mainly MMSC for MMS.
From looking on the net the settings should look something like this
Name: Cingular 410
APN: wap.cingular

Worth a check.

Thank you. Those settings did it. Wonder how they got messed up?!
I copied and saved them.
Thanks again
