Default Picture Texts

Please Login to Remove!

Why all of a sudden do all my outgoing picture texts not send (show up a red X and when I press resend nothing happens) and when someone sends me a picture text I can never retrieve it. Does it have to do w/ the number of pictures on my media card? Help!

Not sure about the main issue, so many things could cause that one.

But for this if you can receive thenthe best thing to check is your camera settings. More than likely the photos are too large in size to actually send. You can open your camera, press your Menu button, select camer otpions or options. Then change Picture Size to Medium, Picture Quality to Normal and then take a photo and send it to your self as MMS.

If it was working before and not now then something might have changed in your provisioning. Try pulling the battery and then when it turns back on make sure you have EDGE and access the internet. If you can browse and still cannot send or receive MMS then call your carrier and make sure the provisioning is correct.

C-girl,

I'll give that a try, I notice that I have three image sizes like 1600 x 1200, 1024 x 768, 640 x 480 I set all to normal and size to 640 x 480 and seems that it doesn't work.

Can you access the internet? Try pulling the battery. Make sure you have EDGE and then browse to www.purple.com. If you see a purple screen and then it turns white then you are connected to the internet.

I've always had problems with Tmobile and MMS. One day it works fine and a few days later the dreaded X appears. Its usually fixed within a few hours. All my settings are correct and everything else is working normally! I'm pretty sure I've read in other places on this forum that other users with Tmo have the same problem. Think its just a problem with Tmo and MMS. Just a guess...

The more you pull the battery the better your phone will work. It's kind of like shutting down your computer. You're "supposed" to shut it down every night. Try powercycling the phone at least once a da and remove battery every few days or every week.

Could definitely be a network problem though. Nothing is perfect.

No worries :D Just out of curiousity, if you open up one of the failed messages and beside the X it'll say why it didn't send. What does it say there?

And btw, we were all noobs at one point ;)
