Good news to everyone around the world specially for prepaid subscriber of Globe Telecoms who are having a difficulty requesting an activation for their phone's MMS. I have found and discovered a website from a friend that offers OTA settings for international MMS service. It means, you cannot only receive and send MMS messages from the same telecommunication company but even from someone from US or UK.
The website is http://www.nowmms.com
I think this will be limited for anyone cause this is only a trial for them to see whether it will be successful. Grab the oppurtunity while it is available.
Hindi na ninyo kailangang makipagbabag sa mga GCA (Globe Centers Attendant) para lang maipa-activate itong MMS ninyo. Wala naman akong problema sa MMS settings ko lang. sinubukan ko lang. Try it everyone. IT is real.

@flaminglips, what network are you on? Well, as far as I am concern, this thing support every network all around the globe. So you won't encounter any problems. By the way, regarding the wapsite or the settings of nowMMS, I can't provide you by it because it is too long for me to copy. If you want, just go to any internet cafe availble in your place and there you can have an internet registration on it and can avail everything it has to offer. It doesn't failed me sending, receiving MMS.

tried & tested!

Hmmm... but look out for the bottom of the website where it says that "MMS advertising is one of the most exciting areas of development" and that you will receive advertising MMS.
Posted by Rui_Costa
Heard that the advertising seems to be cool.
@Flaminglips
Does ur networkprovider support GPRS?

@lips- did u do the ota or manual config? I did ota and works fine with me. Btw, im on globe n using t68. Not that it should matter, but fyi.

guys,
smart subcribers/prepaid puwede rin ba dito nowmms. parang globe lang puwede eh...thanks in advance

Seems like a cool service, but it didn't work for me. I live in the U.S. and use AT&T (they don't support MMS). The first step to set up your account entails entering your phone number on a web page. Then their system sends an SMS with your login code. The SMS never came through.

@lips- OTA-over the air config. Just keep on trying until u rcv an authorization code fr them. Then input it in the appropriate box. Ur then suppose to rcv a message askin if u wantd to install d settings. Yes then choose new profile. Ur on ur way. Had 2 try 2x or 3x b4 it workd.. if that's any consolation.. Hehe.

Got my mms settings ota also,you have to call globe cs to inform them that you wish to enroll for mms service.took a week before i received a msg that saie: WELCOME TO GLOBE MMS :-) sent a msg to my officemate to test and confirm and it works! :-D i'm using a prepaid acct and they only charge 5pesos,less than the 8pesos black and white picture msg for another mobile brand ;-)
Posted by GOwin
nowmms is not completely free as we might have initially thought. if your SP charges you for data usage (ie GPRS charges), you will be billed for any amount of data you used for your MMS (ie 70k sized mms message will be billed for using 70k data in your network)
PS
reminders:
- this thread has been renamed and should deal only with nowmms discussions.
- please use English in the non-regional forums as much as possible

@jocer, you can access this thing even you are under the SMart Services. Just enroll at nowMMS website and you will receive an OTA settings from Smart but before that, you will confirm the network you are currently under in and smart is on the list.
This is easy to use cause you can do send across any phone on the globe. I have sent one from sweden. I hope he received it. Cross-network sending is enable here. The only problem is that, it is not free. But still, it is a good offer for it exceeds and resolves the limitations of other networks. Try it.

@* smart PH users
according to arnoldc you can't use nowmms. a few hours ago, i tried to request for the OTA message for a smart number. until now i have not received it. unlike globe where it only took a few minutes. like arnoldc said, they probably are "smart(ass)"es nga!
@maestro
cross network mms in PH (globe and smart) doesn't seem to be possible. none of the mms messages i sent to smart users got them
Posted by 619
Please keep this to ourselves, we dont want globe to block the ip and the free mms usage. like what they did before on the sms- icq, quios, freesms etc...
Posted by mariolouis
i've been using this since last year. works well! my backup sim is a prepaid globe and at 1 peso, can still sends mms for a month now. i've suggested this to a thread somewhere re: mms not activated for prepaid globe subscribers.
Posted by Jowi
@Gowin
How about configuring it manually...i had my nowmms globe settings configured manually.
Posted by legallypogi
Great! Really great!
Posted by superunknown
619 thats why i didn't post nowmms so it would last long. Please don't letglobe block this one, i did teach my friends from other countries about nowmms:-D

Hi there! It works in Poland too - we have an ability to use wap over gprs for 3$ per month - unlimited access to WAP sites - so MMS are free for me too!

It has been free for me woth Comviq here in Sweden to use GPRS since March 2002 until January 31th 2003, but maybe longer, and now itīll be free with MMS from November 2002 until february 2003.
Thatīs nice.

I hope theres no one fr globe out here.

@GOwin, peculiar thing isn't it, I can receive MMS from Globe using Smart and send Globe MMS using Smart and nothing seems to be wrong. Then about the MMS service for Smart, you won't be needing NowMMS naman for Smart cause smart is doing really, really great regarding such feature so you won't look for anything else. Not like kung GLobe ka, tiyak na puro kunsume lang ang aabutin mo. then about my Swedish friend, he did receive my MMS using Smart MMS. Nothing seems to defeat Smart when it comes to new feature ha.
@legally, sorry ha, hindi na nasundan yung pinadala ko sa iyo. Una, dahil nung natanggap ko yung MMS mo hapon na dahil galing me school nung umaga at hindi pwedeng magdala ng cellphone sa school. THen after opening MMS templates, my phone suddenly turn off cause it needs to be charge, 2 hours after, hindi ako makapag-browse ng internet dito sa PC ko to look for new pictures for me to use in the MMS I am planning to build cause UP students came here for some business matters. Don't worry, I will try to catch up with you. thanks by the way for those MMS it is really fantastic.
Posted by contaygious
Well MMS is coming out next month in usa anyway, so what's the point of this one if your carrier charges u the same anyway????????

@maestro
I just tried nowmms just now and I tried mms cross over (globeprepaid to smart prepaid and vice versa) and it worked especially the globe thing since up to now hindi pa activated yung globe mms since dec.2002. So I opted for nowmms.Well for smart,mms is being billed.I dont know yet for globe since their billing prepaid system is somewhat slower than smart.Sa smart kaltas kaagad.I guess,Smart really prepared their system for gprs/mms.Talo si globe sa fast and efficient(90%) service.
By the way, any newMMS from your side? It would be appreciated.Just please dont send the built in templates (bday,busy and late).
Looking forward to your MMS.
Thanks in advance.

try configuring it manually, dont use OTA...there's a section @ nowmms where you can find how to configure manually.
