I am personally quite satisfied with fMMS. Sure, the ability to delete multiple received messages at once would be welcome, but otherwise it's more-or-less the same as in any other phone. The ability to add a subject line as someone here requested is.. well, I just simply do not know anyone who'd use that feature. Ever. But that's not to say it can't be added, you don't really lose anything even if it's there and not used.

All in all, it does the basic stuff just fine and I personally do not need anything more. Thanks frals for the app, though, the phone would feel quite lacking without it!

OMG EVEN MY RinGo SUPPORTS NMT, WHY CAN'T THIS TOP OF THE LINE SMARTPHONE DO IT?!?!?!?!

please, you two have just ruined all possibilities for getting improvement into features you desire by acting like jerks here. it is not the (valid) point you are trying to make but the way you are pissing to everyones cereal bowl with your idiotic posts.

Hmm. Yes it sucks in browsing web, writing email, listening music. Donīt you see that you have not really made any proper suggestions on how it sucks.

But they have not been able to do that with this phone after being in the store for 3 hours with their tech hacking away at the phone. They eventually got receive to work, but not send. I love the community but the community here has not helped me at all with this problem. I have posts else where and no one has been able to help. Network problem or not, if an old dumb phone can send/receive MMS without using a data plan, a.k.a being on a MMS bundle/package, then why can't this phone do the same?
So basically you are bashing Frals app because of some phones are able to send mms messages on Rogers network using data connection in certain way that circumvents data transfer restriction.

I would really really really advice you to think now who is responsible and how does it make things any better to come off as you did on this community site where people do apps for free to this device.

Ask Rogers to fix their non-standard MMS service

Could you link to your wifi problem threads. And please remember that this is community site. Not Nokia support site. If you ask something here you should not:
- Demand for answer
- Expect answer
- If you get answer any kind be grateful for that

Uhh, that's odd. They use the same settings both for data and MMS? Well, N900 is designed to be used with an actual data plan and as such it usually tries to refresh package lists et al from repositories when it goes online, and that's probably one of the reasons why there's extra traffic.

It's not the fault of fMMS, that's for sure, rather blame Rogers. You shouldn't have bought a device designed for being online 24/7 if you don't then want to have a data plan on it.

n900fan75,
Just to make suggestion to you my dear and beloved friend.

Have you tried to change fmms picture size to small. Because if some phones are able to send mms messages without proper data plan on Rogers then it means that itīs probably possible to send small amounts of data at once and this means that maybe perhaps fmms default message size is bit too big. I would test this by trying to send really small pic with message letīs say 128x128 pixels.

Please help yourself!

.edit
And btw. I assume that you have done your homework and least checked that you have these settings:

I don't know about you guys, but when I bought my N900, the salesperson clearly informed me the lack of MMS and 3G video call...and I still bought the phone because I wanted the other features. I guess that goes for the rest of you out there as well.

So, if you bought a Bimmer without a cup holder, and knew about it before buying, then you should be kicking yourself. fMMS is the best compatible cup holder in this case, even if it doesn't open at voice commands or sense your cup's presence.

fMMS has worked for me, BUT only with data plan. I would hope to use it with gprs/edge/3g
n900fan75,
get ready for good spanking. MMS uses gprs/edge/3g etc data and that is fact. You might need to contact your service provider so that they can enable mms service for your account.

right, and that's the 99% use case i referred to in my post above. fmms handles this very well, because that's what it was designed to do.

so instead of saying it sucks, we could now agree that it handles what both of us think is the "99% use case".
