UK user. I've unlocked my 550 from orange and am having great difficulty getting mms or gprs to work on the virgin network..Virgin have given me the WAP and MMS settings but these don't appear to tie in with any settings on the SPV. anyone already done this or have any ideas?

Cheers,

Tim.

Ok, found where to enter the mmsc address. Nowhere to enter the proxies though?

Wap is still working ok but not mms. If i try to send a message i get:

'Unable to connect. Vefiry you have network coverage and try again.' and

'Unable to send your mewssage(s). Your message(s) will remain in your Outbox.'

If I receive an mms the text part get's through ok but not the mm part of it:

'Unable to connect. Vefiry you have network coverage and try again.'

again and options to postpone or cancel the download. I guess I must have missed changing one of the settings but can't for the life of me work out where?!

Tim.

Found these settings for proxy

Gateway IP (proxy) address: 193.030.166.001

Port: 8080

Don't know if it'll help but it's worth a try. :)

Hecatae,

I'd missed a couple of your entries and added a couple that you didn't list - gawd knows where i got them from. Used yours and it's all working now! Thanks very much :)

Hi,

I'm having similar problems getting MMS to work on my C550 on Virgin. I've followed through the settings below but under: 'Start Messaging Media Messages Menu Options Account Setup' I don't have an option for 'Media Messages' I only have IMAP4. :)

I have tried to create a new entry but it appears to just create another IMAP4 connection.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance,

Warb.

Not had a reply unfortunately and haven't worked out why yet although i convinced that if i can get this issue resolved that the settings provided on the site will work a treat.

Would appreciate it if you could let me know if you hear of a way to resolve this.

Sorry Carmel can you confirm where these steps should be done? I don't seem to be able to locate a configurations menu. The only thing i can find is the account setup menu under the options of media messaging.

Could you provide any more info?

Thanks in advance.

Start-Configurations-MMS settings

Menu-MMSC Settings

Highlight orangemms and click Edit

MMSC Address: http://mms.virginmobile.co.uk

Start-Messaging-Media Messages

Menu-Options-Account Setup-Media Messages

Menu- Edit connections - Menu- Add

Thanks for the response but you have touched on the main problem i have. The section quoted above 'Menu-Options-Account Setup-Media Messages' cannot be completed on my phone as i only have an IMAP4 option when i do 'Menu-Options-Account Setup'

Any idea why this might be? This has been the reaons why i haven't been to apply all the settings in the past. I can create a new connection but it only sets up an IMAP4 connection.

Ooops I've just double checked and forgot that's it's different on the C550 :) The MMS app is under Settings-Configurations.

I've ammended the above settings to what I think should be on the C550 :D
