Can someone tell me a step by step on how to do FMMS?
 

I've been trying for ages now to set it up and still don't know what to do.

1. I installed FMMS from the App manager, set it on Havoc,

2. I'm on Vodafone in the UK, so i went to this website and got these settings:

Vodafone UK

* Access Point Name: wap.vodafone.co.uk
* MMSC: http://mms.vodafone.co.uk/servlets/mms
* Username: wap
* Password: user
* HTTP Proxy: 212.183.137.12
* Port Number: 8799

OR

* Access Point Name: wap.vodafone.co.uk
* MMSC: http://mms.vodafone.co.uk/servlets/mms/
* Username: wap
* Password: wap
* Proxy: 212.183.137.12
* Port number: 9201

I went on FMMS settings, and inputted these settings on my phone. I tried both.

3. I then tried to download a MMS I received. It keeps saying "Downloading MMS" for around 3 - 4 minutes and then I receive a message that says "Unable to retrieve message"

So what do I do? Do I have to go on My n900 Internet Connections and create a new Connection? I'm so confused on what I actually have to do.

It may be that the MMS you are trying to DL has expired if it is quite old.

fmms is quite complicated.i tried to configure it 5 times but it never worked 100%.
i would send e-mails or get a free file uploading account

In fMMS change your Settings to:

INTERNET CONNECTION:
wap.vodafone.co.uk
http://mms.vodafone.co.uk/servlets/mms
wap
user
212.183.137.12
8799

Leave Advanced blank.

RESIZE TO:
Medium

NETWORK MODE:
Havoc

In fAPN (You need to DL this App) set up a Connection called Vodafone MMS
Connection type - Packet Data
Access point - wap.vodafone.co.uk
Username - wap
Password - user
Prompt password box unchecked
Advanced settings...
Use proxy box checked
HTTP proxy 212.183.137.12
Port number - 8799
Auto retrieve IP address boxes checked

Connect to the Vodafone MMS Internet Connection first and then you can send and receive MMS.

Re: Can someone tell me a step by step on how to do FMMS?
 

you can uninstall fmms with app manager, and i guess you dont have fapn installed yet...
download both programs and then google your t mobile settings.....

Re: Can someone tell me a step by step on how to do FMMS?
 

no probs....good luck finding your t mobile settings

Re: Can someone tell me a step by step on how to do FMMS?
 

fMMS only worked with data service for me. Could not get it to work like regular sms. However, I could get incoming MMS notification, but need to logon the data (not WLAN) to retrieve the content. Is this normal, or is there a configuration fix?

Re: Can someone tell me a step by step on how to do FMMS?
 

the latest versions of fmms you DO NOT need fapn, fmms has sorted the access point via its own settings, but they're a bit sensitive. if you did download fapn and create a new access point you will need to delete it using fapn as the network connections in maemo wont let you delete a gprs access point as far as i'm aware. if done correctly fmms will auto receive mms in havoc mode without doing a thing, as mms should on other phones.

for vodafone uk settings i had to try the settings a few times, i believe i fixed when i went to the advanced tab and deleted all the fields rather than leave them as 0.0's (it puts them back, but it worked after that)

Re: Can someone tell me a step by step on how to do FMMS?
 

this sounds like "polite mode" where it will only access the mms access point if no other connection is active. if you have the correct mms settings in fmms, and set it to "havoc mode" it creates an invisible access point and can use it at the same time as your wifi.

Thanks! I'll try that now.
