Asda MMS issues....

[Guest dibbles]

Hello

Today I have bought an Orange branded San Francisco which I have unlocked, installed clockwork and then upgraded with the Jellyfish RLS9 2.2 OS. All went well with no issues.

I installed my Asda Sim and all is well except with the MMS settings and so I can't send or receive MMS message, I also do not get a 3G symbol on the top bar. I have disabled (although this didn't affect it) "Data Enabled" as hopefully that will not cause me to "leak" money when and if it would connect to the web. I use my router and the Wi-Fi at home to connect just fine to the Internet if and when needed.

So the Asda issue....

I followed this post exactly...

http://android.modaco.com/index.php?s=&amp...t&p=1468281

and the only variation that I have tried is with the apn type: mms setting. I have tried to leave it with it being "default" and so I then get a chance to select it after I save it (with a green button denoting its selection) or I set it to apn type: mms and then there wouldn't be a green button.

I switch the phone on and off each time I make a change.

But I can't get the MMS to work. I do not have it set to only use 2G networks and the network mode is set to Auto GSM/WCDMA

Any help please...?

PS- When I phoned Asda they sent me an email with these settings to apply....

but they made no difference.

You don't select the green button for mms

you only do it for the internet settings, the phone picks up the mms settings itself once they are correct

if you can't get it to work get an app from the market, apn backup and restore

Install it and then use it to delete all APN's and then put in the correct settings again, sometimes for some unknown reason they won't work unless you delete all the old ones first

You are a STAR :huh:

You would not believe how late I was up last night entering those settings and deleting them again, to no avail. What I did not realise was that all the other APN's, which were not being used, were compromising the APN I needed..! I downloaded the application and backed them up first. Then I deleted all the APN's and entered the Asda one again (I can do it from memory now).

Then it worked.....!!!!

Thanks ever so much and you can figure from this post how delighted I am and frustrated that I was in not being able to get it to work.
