Got my new Vario2 (Hermes yesterday) Straight backonto the forum after a long departure and instantly started playing with Mobile6 thanks to all the fantastic programmers on here. Only issue was having to reload al the gprs and mms data each time. After a long search on the tmobile site I found the following instructions for the UK network.
If anyone with the know how wishes to make a cab that can be installed easily each time I re-flash that would be highly appreciated and I'm sure some others will find it of use too.
Thank you in advance to any takers

Does anyone know how to setup MMS on this device?
I'm using Xda with Rogers Wireless (cellular service provider) in Canada. I know that I have to subscribe to their MMS service, but they won't support my device and I have to figure out how to set it up myself.
Can ANYONE help? Step-by-Step?
Also, does MMS use GPRS to send/receive MMS message? Or is it the same as TEXT messaging.
REALLY appreciated!
Many thanks for even taking the time to READ this message!

Well usually MMS wrks with GPRS in the background, so it is via GPRS, EDGE or 3G

PAYG but i know what settingsto change thanks mate much apreciated
collins199820, any chance you can share those settings please?
I've had major hassles trying to get my mms settings sorted on my xda exec.
ive lost a weekend messing around with these different roms and although they look and run realy nice, untill one of you genius's make a rom for the tmobile mda mail im going to have to go back to my [email protected] tmobile 6.0 rom.
issues with email trying to use wifi, when these phones have no wifi!
issues with keypad mapping
and even after messing with settings and trying various cab files still no mms working.
there must be a uk guru out there??
Which ROMS have you tried?
I do not think I am understanding what you are saying. The T-mobile Dash/Excalibur has wifi, and wifi works in all of the ROMS i have tried including the stock t-mobile one.
You may have to configure some options in regard to internet/data and mms. Have you done any configuration under the Settings -> Connections -> GPRS menu? Each time you flash your phone, you have to reconfigure these settings.
Anyhow, I am not sure what you mean by the "tmobile mda mail." If this is a completely different device then the T-mobile Dash/Excalibur, then you have posted in the wrong forum; and I am surprised any of the ROMs on this forum even installed in the first place!
ive tried kavana 080307 and 080308.
tmobile mda mail has NO wifi! its like the dash in every way except this. tmobile uk must be tight wads.
subsequently email tries with gprs for a few seconds then goes to try wifi (get double arrow symbol in top right) then unsupprisingly no email.
i have configured gprs and internet explorer works (quite well infact).
http://www.manuals.t-mobile.co.uk/manual.asp?manualid=1866
That is bizzare. Is it possible to cook a ROM without wifi drivers? Sombody in the 6.1 thread said that they got their wing to work with it, perhaps they just dont use it for e-mail then. Do any of the other roms work with email? It would be a shame to have to downgrade to the stock tmobile ROM.
tell me about it, i can live without mms but not without email
In the meantime, you should try this:

If you need help installing, just give me a shout It can be a real pain for the first time without the nice wizard that comes with the new 6.1 ROMs.

Hi
I experienced a similar problem with my Diamond I purchased on the weekend. It was a Telstra NextG model that was supposedly unlocked and able to work on all networks.
It worked with my Optus SIM as a phone but I couldn't get any Internet connectivity.
I ended up flashing it to a cooked ROM which auto-detected the Optus SIM on first boot and configured itself automatically. Internet is now working without problem.
FYI I'm now using "Dia Druitt v05" ROM and am very happy with it. Original ROM version was 1.38.
Battery life is not great but I have just changed the radio from .06 to .bs14 and will see if that makes any difference.
Cheers
Loki

HI Loki
Can you explain how you did this by Dia Druitt v05 ROM...I have the same problem...I can call and SMS but now internet activity / MMS...dont know what to change on the phone...thanks for your help
You should be able to download the optus/vodafone rom from HTC using the Telstra Next G diamond serial without any issues.
Otherwise, here are the steps to manually input them:
For Internet:
1. Tap on the Start button.
2. Tap on Settings.
3. Tap on Connections.
4. Tap on the Connections Icon.
5. Tap on Add a new modem connection under My Work Network.
6. Enter Optus WEB in the Enter a name for the connection field.
7. Select Cellular Line (GPRS) in the drop down list of Select a modem.
8. Tap Next.
9. Enter internet in the Access point name field.
10. Tap Next.
11. Enter in the User name field or otherwise leave it blank.
12. Enter in the Password field or otherwise leave it blank.
13. Tap Advanced.
14. Select Use server-assigned IP address.
15. Tap OK.
16. Tap Finish.
for some pdas it is compulsary to set proxy for internet connetion if so in step 9 instead of "internet" put "wap.optus.net.au" and for proxy setting put "202.139.83.152" and port "8070".
For MMS:
1. Tap on the Start button.
2. Tap on Settings.
3. Tap on Connections.
4. Tap on the Connections icon.
5. Under My ISP, tap on Add a new modem connection.
6. Enter Optus MMS in the Enter a name for the connection field.
7. Select Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G) in the drop down list of Select a modem.
8. Tap on Next.
9. Enter mms in the Access point name field. Tap on Next.
10. Enter in the User name field.
11. Enter in the Password field.
12. Tap Advanced.
13. Select Use server-assigned IP address. Tap OK.
14. Tap Finish.
15. Tap OK.
16. Tap on Settings.
17. Tap on Messaging.
18. Tap on Menu which is located at the bottom right corner.
19. Tap on MMS Configuration.
20. Under Servers, tap on New.
21. Enter Optus MMS in the Server name field.
22. Enter 61.88.190.10 in the Gateway field.
23. Enter 9201 or Permanent, non-secure in the Port number field.
24. Enter http://mmsc.optus.com.au:8002 in the Server Address field.
25. Select My ISP in the Connect via drop down selection.
26. Select WAP 2.0 in the WAP Version drop down selection.
27. Tap on OK.
28. Tap on Set As Default.
29. Tap OK.
If setting above doesnt work change the port address on step 23 to "8070" then try again.
PS. I just did a search on google for "Optus MMS settings" and copied and paste those instructions.
Optus Rom Update
I've got the same problem. My Touch Diamond is from Telstra, but I'm with Optus. I can send/recieve sms, but not mms.
Can someone post up the latest rom for Optus users? I can'd download it from the HTC website as the serial number on the phone will only download the Telstra one.
Hey guys, I'm really sorry to bring this up again (after all this time) but I'm having issues getting the optus mms to work and I can't for the life of my work out why. I'd tried using all the suggested settings and it still refuses to work (the mobile internet is and has been working flawlessly for some time now).
I was just wondering if any of you guys actually managed to get the mms working or if you all just ended up flashing with a cooked rom.
MMS not working - ive followed settings from tmbile site below (obviously they are for froyo/gingerbread and im on ICS, but menus are similar)
All settings are per the description but on recieving MMS i just get a text telling me to visit the website with password etc.
I have 2 APNs there (this is how things were after ROM install) I have ensured the one called "picture messaging" has the settings below. The top APN has a dot on the rhs of it if that matters?
TIA

what ROM do you use? maybe MMS is not working yet.
