A fluffy sweet out of your pocket Eh :-k

Ok :D As long as you didn't drop it on the floor :)

I don't know the answer for certain but you would probably start here (taken from T-mobile site)

First, get a Picture Messaging phone. Next, call 150 and say you want picture messaging. Then compose a message and send to a phone or email. Picture Messaging is now set up.

The biggest problem (as always) is being able to confirm the APN, username and password for PAYG. The last time I checked T-mobile didn't do GPRS PAYG so unfortunately I don't what they are.

As a guide this is how MMS would be setup for T-mobile contract.

Programs - Settings - Data Connections

Menu - Edit Connections

GPRS connection - menu- Add

Create a new GPRS connection

Description : T-mobile MMS

Connects to : MMS connection

Access point: general.t-mobile.uk

User name: user

Paswword: one2one

Programs - Settings - Accessories - MMS setup

First field: t-mobile MMS

IP: 149.254.211.010

Port: 9201

Mmsc Address: http://mmsc.t-mobile.co.uk:8002

What you will probably need to do is confirm the APN, username and password with T-mobile CS although they probably won't have a clue what you are talking about.

The other way of getting the settings is to borrow someone elses phone, which T-mobile do have on their list, and get the PAYG MMS setting to you over the air. You can then check the settings and use them to setup the SPV.

There's a Werthers Original on it's way to you if this works bud.

Good News - It works :)

Just got GPRS & pic messaging activated on my T-mobile PAYG SIM (had it lying around). Tested full internet browsing and then successfully sent a picture via MMS from T-mobile to Orange :D

Confirmed: T-mobile PAYG GPRS settings are the same as contract.

Martin Thanks mate. Do you want wine gums or midget gems?

Thanks again.

Did you delete all the other connection settings or add new ones to get it going? What d'ya recommend?

[Guest martin]

How about kola cubes :)

I find it best to delete any dialup/proxy/gprs settings not used. That way there is less chance of the registry getting confused.

It's working. Woo Hoo!

I deleted/amended the Orange setting to your specs. Sorted!

I will send you a quarter pound of Kola Cubes through the post. Make sure your postman doesn't steal em!

Mucho Gracias.

Sorry to bring up such an old topic :shock:

But i really need help on this too.

What are the MMS settings for T-Mobile UK on contract? Im using the original SPV. Because, when someone sends me an MMS message, i get an SMS telling me to visit t-mobiles site to download the message.

TIA

[Guest martin]

The MMS setting are in the settings posted above :)

Have you confirmed that MMS has been activated on your account ? If you haven't used MMS with that SIM before then check with T-Mobile customer services.
