Notices

I don't have any errors reported by my fMMS and I'm using it with the T-Mobile USA settings (created a T-moMMS access point with the proxy suggested in the wiki).

I can receive MMS messages from other T-Mobile and AT&T users, but so far, only other T-Mobile users have been able to receive my picture messages. My friend on AT&T sees the text on my incoming MMS to him, but not the attached image. If I send an image to him with no text attached, he gets nothing.

Has anyone else on T-Mobile USA seen this?

yeah i was sending pics to a friend thats on T-Mo, I'm on AT&T. She gets the alert but there is nothing there. everybody else get them no problem on tmo. she has a blackberry, maybe there is a problem there, resizing or the way tmo accepts or delivers them.

Yeah, now that you mention it, my friend on AT&T who can't see my pic attachments over MMS is on a BlackBerry.

It might not be a network issue, but a Blackberry message tool issue.


Can anyone confirm that someone on a blackberry received a picture message sent from fMMS?

Speaking of T-Mo US, my test MMS's have only been charged as data (as far as I can tell). I don't have a texting plan, so I assumed they would show up under messaging and I'd get charged for them.

Also, this morning it appears my N900 decided to revert back to my MMS APN. I switched settings and renamed. I'll do some more testing tonight.

You should get charged by T-Mobile USA for every MMS message that routes as such through their MMS proxy (for those of use who have to use the proxy).

For my N900 on T-Mobile USA (Washington DC), I have to use the proxy as the standard T-Mobile internet access point won't transmit MMS messages from fMMS. So I expect to see MMS charges on my bill for each send/receive.

It's possible if you are able to MMS through your default T-Mobile Internet access point (that would be wap.voicestream.com or internet2.t-mobile.com without a proxy) then I guess it would just show up as data and charged as such.

Since we're talking about it, I noticed that I can web browse and email just fine on T-Mobile USA 3G and EDGE using my Proxy enabled T-MoMMS access point.

Is there any noticed badness to using the MMS access point full time instead of the default T-Mobile internet one, cause I haven't seen any ill-effects yet.

Well my internet access ($10 Unlimited Web on EM+ 500min plan) is through internet2.voicestream.com. MMS is per wiki using wap.voicestream.com w/ proxy settings.

If I turn off the proxy on wap, I get an upgrade notice. MMS won't go through on internet2 w/ proxy.

The MMS don't show up in messaging, but it does show data used at about the right times (on my recent usage online). I expect they will charge me, but it would be cool to get "free" MMS through my data.

do i need mms APN always active to recieve mms or is it like normal nokia handset (say n97) which connects to APN and downloads MMS and then disconnects?

how do i save a MMS picture?

click on the picture & hold until an "open" button appears. Click this and it"ll open in the stock picture viewer which has save & save as options.

You need to manually connect to your MMS access point to send or download MMS messages with the fMMS application, but even if you aren't connected to any access point at all, you still get SMS push notification that a new MMS message is waiting for you to download which is pretty awesome.
