every time i try to send an mms it fails at the last hurdle. i.e. it gets up to 94% transmitted and then fails. am i right in saying that it should use 'vodafone live' as the connection (it comes up with choices). someone sent me a mms and i got an sms from vodafone giving me a web address to click on to view the mms that had been sent to me but i couldnt get this to work. ive never managed to get mms to work on my phone any suggestions? thanks |

what network are you on, prepay/contract? some info needed!
if you're getting the text when a friend sends you a msg it seems it isnt activated at your service provider level and is nothing to do with the phone, ring them and ask them to activate mms/gprs if it isnt already. |

vodafone monthly contract
i phoned and activated mms a few weeks ago
then when i phoned for help a couple of days ago they said it wasnt activated so i contacted the people who bill me (other bit of vodafone) and they said it was activated but they would double check and activate it again.
still no joy |

Vodafone have recently had problems with their MMS service so probably the reason it's not working. If the message fails it will always fail @ 94 %. Best thing to do is call them up to check this or recheck all your settings.

If you haven't upgraded your phone to R2F, that could be an answer. I used to get the same errors as you do, but when i got the upgrade, it worked flawlessly (almost  )

Mine did exactly the same for the 1st 20 or so attempts roy.
Then, with no adjustments to the settings which we're in the phone when I got it from Vodafone whatsoever, it started to work properly.
I would guess its a Vodafone problem, rather than some problem with the handset settings.
