FMMS help PLEASE!!!! (vodafone)
 
I know there are other threads on this topic, but none specific to vodafone (i think) after this pr1.2 update and i really want to know if its fixable, if so, how? I honestly used fmms every day coz i have a new born baby and you can imagine what me and my missus are like sending everyone and each other pictures. I want fmms up and running again so please help me out. It worked fine all the time before the update. This is my message when i try to send...

Operation failed
(32,'Broken pipe')
Please check your settings

I've tried everything, been on numerous forums and no one seems to kno or have actually fixed the problem (on vodafone) I didn't install fapn with update as its not needed, tried all modes, retyped all settings in fmms and connection settings. If anyone is on vodafone and there's is working i could do with knowing what there settings are to see if i've missed something
PLEASE HELP!!!

Same problem here, and it created a new GPRS connection called "MMS", with empty settings.

I gave up on FMMS, I just use e-mail, even though the person I send the photo reads it later.

The instant reception of the mms is why I sometimes send MMS, like when I need advice for buying clothes, I just take a picture and send it to the girlfriend. An e-mail would be read hours after I leave the store, so it's useless.

What version are you using (the one from extras or the one from extras-devel)?

Greetings, I would suggest un installing fMMS completely. Then reboot yr device. Then go and instal it again. once installed reboot yr device again. The go in and add yr Voda specific settings. after that, you guessed it ,reboot.

Once done, try sending yourself a mms, ensure that you have settings of "Rude" and Picture resizing ro "Medium" or "Small".

This should work :)

Ok, I searched a bit, and finally managed to send a MMS :

- set up your settings ("internet connection : settings" in the FMMS "settings" menu) with the info there : http://wiki.maemo.org/MMS
- connect manually to the GPRS network called "MMS"
- send MMS with FMMS.

I didn't expect this app to need that much tuning, I don't think non-techie users would be able to make it work the way it is now. Showing a link to the wiki for configuration, until the first MMS is successfully sent, would be a nice feature for this app.

WOO HOOO! It works again, thanks to CHOUBBI follow this link... http://wiki.maemo.org/MMS
only thing is, after i checked all my settings it still wouldn't send unless polite or rude was selected and only on small or medium which was great because it worked!
I know how to send a large file... manually select your contract wap conection NOT mms... select polite mode, select large and save. This should now send large files!
Thanks all and let me know if it works for you

I too am having problems sending and receiving, its never really worked, although i have successfully received about 3 mms' out of the many many that i have received and sent about 2, but i dont know why these ones worked (all this was prior to PR 1.2!)

I am on vodafone UK, running PR 1.2 and using fmms version 1.1.9. I have contacted vodafone and they confirm mms is enabled on my account, so i got them to disable, and then re-enable it again to see if that would make a difference - it didnt :(

I have tried both these settings.....

* Access Point Name: wap.vodafone.co.uk
* MMSC: http://mms.vodafone.co.uk/servlets/mms

* Username: wap
* Password: wap

* Port number: 9201
Neither of these work, nor can i find any that do. When trying to send i get either "Operation failed, timed out" or "Operation failed, unable to contact operator" (or something like that).

Ive attached the logs for when trying to receive a mms using each of the settings above, they are distinguished by the port number.

Any help on this would be massively appreciated, cheers.

When i first updated to pr1.2 i had a load of problems in general, phone slow, some apps not working inc fmms, this was due to restoring the backup i made before the update, some of the apps i restored arn't even available for pr1.2 but i retrieved them anyway? then i think there's still things in the settings i backed up, to do with them apps inc fmms. This is a pain but make a note of all your apps and do another backup, reinstall pr1.2 via nokia pc suit then when you restore your backup, uncheck settings and apps list. then search and install your apps one by one, your phone should have no memory at all of fmms being there so install fmms again and put your settings back but do exactly what i did in my last post and see if it works. it worked for me. it just means fannying around with your settings to get ya phone back to how you want it. hope this helps my friend!

It makes sense, as there are settings that get backed up that i never thought would have. It is annoying, but i'll have to try this.

I'll let you know how i go.....

This worked! Finally!! All that effort was at least worth it.

Thanks natedog, appreciated.


For the record, here's what i did to get it working:

• I phoned up vodafone to check they had MMS enabled, got them to disable & re-enable it again, and also to checked their barred services screen to make sure it wasn't - not sure how much of a difference disabling it makes, but seen it on another thread so i ruled that out.
• Backed up
• Formatted phone & eMMC
• Restored bookmarks and applications (and then let it install the apps automatically) and i manually restored just my contacts - see HERE to do this.
• Entered the settings at the bottom of this post into fmms (i am on contract)
• Put resize on medium, and mode on havoc

All that and then they work, sending & receiving without any problems now - touch wood!

Just had to go through the phone and set all my settings again etc.

I'm glad that this helped u out coz i did without mms for a couple of weeks and it bugged the hell out of me? Putting my password on "wap" didn't work for me, only "user" which is odd coz i'm on contract too? Why didn't nokia just include this in the first place? Its still a form of comunication even if some prefer to use email???

I installed FMMS last night on another N900 and had the same issue, however I just put in all the other information needed and managed to send and receive MMS messages via the N900.

My issue currently is that I now can no longer view any of my sent items, or any of the messages I have received prior to installing FMMS. It also appears that when I receive a message, I read it, adn it disappears!! I'm guessing that I need to put the right path in to view the sent items folder and the inbox - please can someone let me know whether this is true of not, and if so, how to go about it?

Many thanks
Phil
