Problem with MMS on Proximus (Belgian) network

[Guest wimpie3]

Problem: MMS is buggy... sometimes an MMS arrives, but cannot be retrieved (error while downloading message). After resetting the phone I can indeed read an MMS which has been sent from another phone, but I don't see the body of the MMS (simply says "OBJECT"). MMS'ses send from the SPV to myself are okay... I know the phone is designed to work on the UK Orange network, but I thought the MMS protocol is a standard?

These are my settings:

Are you trying to sendreceive between different networks?

as this has been a known network problem the phone.

The networks are only just getting their act together and

starting to work in the UK so Belgian networks could well

in the same situation.

[Guest wimpie3]

Nope, just sending from Proximus to Proximus.

This could be a new one then :?

there are also known compatability issues between the

older Nokia 7650 as well.

PS Welcome to the site :lol:

Far from " standard" at mo, I have placed a thread elsewhere ??? on this but MMS interpretation is different on networks(particularly size wise) as per awarners post but all handsets seem to handle MMS differently. Note: The SPV on the Orange network will handle MMS to the 100kb limit as will the P800 but some other handsets struggle to open anything over 30kb.

I will post a little more on MMS compatibility when I have more time as it seems to be an issue for people who use it. 8)
