OK guys, this is what you do. Messaging --> Picture --> Options --> Message server ... type in http://mmsc.cingular.com ... in WAP Profile choose the profile you use for GPRS.

This works great for me

I have http://mmsc.cingular.com as my msg server
and GPRS as my WAP account

but still no luck...

on the WAP account profile, do i use proxy? if so how?

hopeless, P800 cingular user, if only cingular support p800... why why cant they

I've tweaked the settings a bit and have only reached 94% percent when trying to send an MMS using my P800. Then I get a "communication error" stating that an error occurred in the communication with the proxy.....

still no luck with cingular MMS with p800?

dont have APN setting for GPRS...

sigh..

anyone got it working?

When you are trying to send MMS, does the GPRS icon show up, or a little handset (top left corner area)? If handset, you need a new sim. Means MMS couldn't "attach." I have had to change the sim for almost every cust that I have added MMS to, including my own. The store should give you one free for this issue. People won't get it if we are going to charge them for a new sim

If you want MMS and don't have GPRS yet, ask that the rep adds MMS first, then GPRS. And test it before you leave store or hang up with cust serv.

Ok... This is what I have on my P800:

WAP Accounts:
Account Name: MMS
Internet Account: MMS
Use Proxy: checked on
Address:66.209.11.61
Port: 9203
username: blank
Password: blank

Under the Preferred tab, do not check "use wap account".

Under Messaging Accounts:
MMS Tab:
Service Center Address: http://mmsc.cingular.com
Wap Account: MMS
Automatic: Off

Do not touch the advanced settings.

Under Internet Accounts:
Account name: MMS
Connection type: GPRS

Go to advanced settings:
Username & password required must be checked on.
user name: WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM
password: CINGULAR1
Address: wap.cingular


These settings work for my P800. Let me know if they work for yours.

RichLok, thanks for your help

everything runs fine until 94%in sending MMS, then it says "an error occurred in the communication with the proxy"

cant even download MMS, stuck at 0%... very weird...

PM me your PCS number so I can send you a test MMS to see what occurs.

Posted by DevilHell
got your MMS,

it just keeps DLing message and never passes 0%



Posted by RichLok
Did you ever mess with the advanced settings before? I may have to compare my P800 w/ yours to see what settings are different. I work in Irvine, are you nearby?

Hi Rich,

I just got my P900 and signed up with Cingular for their MMS feature. I have tried all the settings that you suggested in this forum topic, but with no luck! The icon for GPRS is on & active & attached. After I pressed send, the indicator shows sending until 90% then replied with an error message:"An error occured in the communication with the server. Reason code 0x52e."

I didn't mess with the advanced settings. Could you please give me any suggestion to solve this problem?

One more question is that could you send a MMS message from Cingular's website? I saw they have the link to send MMS, but it asked me for the Message ID and Password. I tried the username and pass that I setup in MyWirelessWindow.com but did not success. Is there any other free program that you can send MMS from the PC? I tried to test if my P900 will even receive MMS.

Thank you very much!

Greetings,
I'm a newbie. I've recenly bought an iMate (a.k.a XDA II) and am using it here in the U.S. Everything seems to work fine except one feature. I use it with Cingular as the carrier. I've configured it for MMS (thanks to help from reading this forum). It sends MMS messages just fine but it doesn't seem to receive MMS back. Any body had this happen before???

I am having the same problem with MMS on Cingular. I have a Nokia 6230, and all my GPRS works fine (email, web browsing) except for MMS. I have all the settings correct, when I send I get a little "G" and a spinning envelope/paperclip icon, but then "Multimesia message sending failed."

Any clues?
