Hmm .. if your apn settings are correct then make sure you turn data on, then send mms messages.

I don't know what the apn T-mobile settings are but to send MMS messages you have to turn data on or the message will say "sending" forever.

I thought you were on T-mobile.

All you need are the correct settings for your network and it should work.
