Cross Net photo messaging

[Guest Honest John]

What is the current state of play with this? Have the telcos got it working?

I tried sending a photo to a photo-enabled T-Mobile phone, but all my mate got was a sms with a URL to look up.

Has anyone got cross net photoing working or are there still problems.

thanks.

Try sending an MMS between different handset types...GD87 to SPV...

This is one of the current hot topics and is being looked at by the GSMA CEO's forum.

As far as links between networks regarding mms, the current stance is orange, o2 and tmob are fine to send/receive mms between each but vodaphone doesnt work. That was my understanding anyway

Just last week Orange confirmed that cross-network mms had been finalised, but aparantly they are having some problems with Orange->Vodafone mms.

Found this question on Orange website FAQ:

Q: Why aren't MMS messages to other networks compatible? When I send a photo message to a friend on Vodafone, all she gets is a website link.

A: There is not currently an MMS interconnection with the Vodafone network. We hope this functionality will be available soon. You can send MMS between Orange and O2 users at the moment.
