Hi Frals, first of all you are a legend and Nokia need to get their wallets out in my opinion!

I have investigated every post and looked for any videos or advice on Google & Youtube but the latest video or advice tells me install fapn etc, which 1.1.4 says is unnecessary and I have uncovered no answers, so here goes!

I have uninstalled fapn and my previous version of fmms (1.1.1) and installed the latest version of fmms 1.1.4 only.

It worked fine previously, but when i got a message to alert me to a new mms message waiting to be downloaded, I had to manually switch to the Vodafone MMS apn that I set up using fapn. This was fine but it also automatically connected to the Vodafone MMS connection instead of my Internet one in everyday use, which was very annoying.

I tried the advice that you gave: If the device is auto connecting to the MMS APN instead of the regular internet one automatically; runing:
/opt/fmms/fmms_config.py
in the terminal should correct this - please verify by checking in "Internet Connections" as well as edit the access point to make sure all settings got changed.
but this did not work and it still connected to the Vodafone MMS apn. This is what prompted me to go for the newer version and was very pleased that you had updated!

As far as I understand it all I now needed to do is download the latest fMMS (vers 1.1.4) and it will automatically set up the APN. It didn't so I set about going into the settings in fMMS and manually entering them. This was fairly simple (using these settings http://wiki.maemo.org/MMS#Vodafone_UK) but the "Your Phone Number" field is now gone. Is this right?!

Anyway I have installed fMMS (vers 1.1.4) put in all correct settings in all of the fields that are now available:

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

It now doesn't work.

Can you help me, am I missing something?!

Cheers

Dan

edit: also the details and instructions on the MMS wiki are not for the latest version and I cannot find a comprehensive guide for version 1.1.4 anywhere for love no money. Is there anyway you could you please do this, downloading the application is great but setting it up properly and actually using it would be awesome! Thanks again
