Hey I was wondering if anyone here knew how to save/download pics attached within MMS's. It just shows the picture msg as if its a slideshow (it shows that PLAY button icon) and it doesnt let me highlight the picture to save it to the MY PICTURES folder, but it does let me alter the text part of the msg. I know it is possible to do because I've done it before with normal MMS, but it doesn't seem to work if the MMS has been forwarded to me. Help plz..

First wait for the message to stop playing or stop it manually and then select the item with the joystick them choose save with the soft key :-)

"...it doesn't seem to work if the MMS has been forwarded to me."

i.e. it doesn't let u save the pic if the mms has been forwarded.

Sounds strange... no problem here, did you try to save the message as a template and than save the picture?

Posted by J3K
Yeah tried saving it as a template too, but still no luck. Then again.. can you download templates to your computer using floats mobile agent?

Hello,

I would welcolme any resulution to this because I have the same problem. Infact it was googling for a solution that led me to this site.

Pictures and ring tones that I have downloaded either from WAP or text order are fine. But pictures or tones forwarded from friends do not have any option to save.

Many thanks guys

Nup, still no resolution. Had to resort to just forwarding the MMS to my e-mail account then saving the picture on my computer that way. MMS's cost me stacks to send too!

wait till it is played, then use the 'up' joystick so that a dotted line appear over the picture then use the more/options key to save the picture....

That's the way, try it because it works fine for me.

Govigov,

I love you!

I still don't have the option just to save but I have the option to set as wallpaper / ringtone which automatically save it for me. I can then change back if necessary!

Thank you to everyone who tried to help

Hmmmm . . . looks like the questioning @alye turned into some 'lovely sayings' in the offing here ? Just look how a simple celfone discussion can bring 2 members together . . .

Hi,

I have a T610. Bought it off someone at work for £35 when they upgraded. Was very wary at moving from Nokia but I love it. It's a better phone than the O2X2 my friend paid £120 for!
