MPX220: It can do it, I can't

[vincenzosi]

Someone on here has to have figured these two things out by now! HELP :)

Things I can't do with my MPX220 on T-Mobile and would love help doing:

1. MMS (can't send or receive MMS messages).
2. When I reply to an SMS from a non-T-Mobile subscriber, they just flat out don't get it.

Any help that could be offered would be massively appreciated.

Thanks!

The SMS bug is a real bug, which can only be bypassed by creating a new message instead of replying to an inter-carrier SMS.
As for GPRS settings, take a peek in the T-Mobile forum?

It's gotta be a T-mobile thing. I can do both of those on Cingular with no problem.

I'm using an unlocked "Cingular" MPX 220 on the ATT network. I messed with the MMS settings so long that I got blisters on my thumbs. Still kept getting the message that it failed to connect and to check my settings. Finally, out of frustration I dumped the whole WAP network route and changed the settings for multimedia messaging to use the internet. Viola!! Turns out that while WAP might be a little smoother, you're restricted to sending and recieving from like subscribers only. This way may be a little slower but now my messages containing photos, film clips, etc. can be received by anybody, not just ATT subscribers. If need be, I'll post all my settings.
