I've installed the 3VOLUTION SERIES 3VO.1.40.070109 and I noticed that although I can configure the MMS settings in GPRS, I can't configure the additional options required in the MMS settings (per T-Mobile's instructions) as these options do not exist.
I also tried the ArcSoft software, although it installs it seems to be only designed for PPC's or Windows Mobile Professional as the menus bleed beneath the S621's screen size. Although I was able to configure it, I couldn't confirm my settings and exit the screen.
I also tried the later ROM, but I experienced too many issues with my Internet connections that I didn't experience with the earlier ROM.
Are there any options for establishing the required MMS settings with this ROM or is there a WM6 Standard version of ArcSoft that I could use to enable MMS settings to work?
Thank you,
Tim
what countries tmobile mms setting do you need? perhaps then we can help find you a solution. you should be using the 3VO.2.00.071809 release since it is the most recent and is nearly flawless. although ookba had made and additional settings cab for earlier version for mms setting. i'll send you the cab in a pm if you don't want to reflash to the newest version
I have T-Mobile USA, came over with my HTC-S621 from Suncom. The settings are configured in the 'settings, connection, gprs area'. But in the actual MMS area which is now threaded with SMS, there is no longer an option to input the required settings. The option just no longer exists... must be a 6.5 feature or something.
Thank you,
Tim
attached cab here since i couldn't send it to you.
Thank you! I'll try it out and let you know.

if it doesn't work you should reflash to the latest version and set you connection setting the tmobile usa. it should fix everything from that point. i got my phone in israel and the settings work fine with tmobile usa. additionally if you don't want to flash again reset you connection with the connection setup found in the start menu and restart your phone.
I installed the update, but the '3VO Settings Update.cab' file doesn't seem to address the missing MMS settings field.
Here are the T-Mobile instructions.
T-Mobile MMS Settings:
Setting up the data account <---- This portion is available for setup.
1. Tap Start.
2. Tap Settings.
3. Tap on the Connections tab.
4. Tap the Connections icon.
5. Tap Add a new modem connection under T-Mobile GPRS.
6. Enter PictureMessaging in the Enter a name for the connection field.
7. Tap to select Cellular Line (GPRS) from the Select a modem drop down list.
8. Tap Next.
9. Enter wap.voicestream.com in the Access point name field.
10. Tap Next.
11. Tap Finish.
Setting up the MMS profile <--- this part isn't available in the new ROM.
1. Tap Start again.
2. Tap Messaging.
3. Tap Menu.
4. Tap MMS Configuration.
5. Tap the Servers tab.
6. Tap New.
7. Enter PictureMessaging in the Server Name field.
8. Enter 216.155.165.050 in the Gateway field.
9. Enter 8080 in the Port number field.
10. Enter http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms in the Server address field.
11. Tap to select T-Mobile GPRS from the Connect via drop down list.
12. Tap to select WAP 2.0 from the WAP Version dropdown.
13. Tap OK.
14. Scroll to PictureMessaging and tap Set As Default.
15. Tap OK.
The new MMS profile is now configured and ready for use.
Any other ideas?
Thank you,
Tim
These are not present in the NRG27 Energy 6.5 ROM either. This is the first I heard of these setting too. Although that does not mean much since I have never used picture messages.
I just go to start/accessories and run the connection setup, set my phone to USA and T-mobile and it works as it should...my MMS messages go through just fine
Maybe posting this in the correct thread would be a good idea??
There is a "MMS Settings" selection in Settings.

I posted it here because once a thread gets as large as yours a post can get lost in the 'noise'.
I did look for a MMS Settings page under settings, but I can't find one. I also tried the Internet Connections Wizard but that didn't work for me. In fact, using that messed up my other connections.
I used my SbBackup to restore it back so that my Internet would work again. However, I really don't think it's necessarily your ROM, I think that perhaps my SUNCOM Sim Chip doesn't want to cooperate with T-Mobile or something.
But I was hoping to find the menu page to configure the settings in MMS to try again, but it seems in WM6.5, Microsoft didn't think they were needed.
I would just run into a T-Mobile store and see if they could help me, but I don't think they would want to help me since I'm not on a ROM that they'd customarily support.
With exception to the MMS, everything else is working great!
Thank you,

the reason why people think that a post will get lost inside of any thread is 'cause people don't search, or search inside a thread. If a thread has 100 pages and anyone has a question, but doesn't want to sit thru 100 pages, they should use the search this thread feature a the top, that's available when you're reading a thread, you do a search like any other time except this feature will only search inside the opened thread.
By making multiple threads with different questions about the same rom,app,system, bug, whatever, all it does when someone actually does a search, it gives them that many more results , that are gonna have to be read in order to find the answer.
That's the main reason for all of us to encourage everyone to please post questions on the proper thread, instead of making a new one.

Hi all
I've just flashed to the latest ax3l ROM (as per sig), but am having trouble getting the Orange connection settings to appear correctly, when re-entering them manually.
I'm using the settings for Orange UK as per those posted by Findus, found half way down this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299023&page=5&highlight=orange+MMS+settings
Basically, I can't get the the the three separate Operator Connections to list separately. Either 2 or all of them will always come under the Modems tab after selecting "Manage existing connections" from the only "My Work Connection" listed on the initial page.
As a result I cannot specify the correct settings under the Proxy tab for each individual connection.
What I think I need to see is all 3 connections listed individually on the initial Connections page, is this correct?
I'm guessing these settings are written for WM5, and I'm missing something obvious here?
Any help hugely appreciated
Dom
try this cab
thanks for the quick reply to my long question, and a cab is certainly easier than tapping it all out
interestingly, the cab doesn't enter all the above connections (only the orange GPRS connection and the MMS server settings), but browsing by GPRS and at least sending MMS now both work fine. I'm guessing that it was ripped from the original Orange ROM?
thanks anyway
i'm on my ppc now, trying to upload two more cabs for you to try
all found by googling this site
sorry, i should have made that clearer - as far as I can see, everything I need is now working corrrectly, from the first cab you originally posted - thank you!
The only thing I've not checked properly yet is receiving MMS, and verifying the ones I sent have been received OK, which I'll get the chance to do later. I was only wondering out of interest why the connections didn't look correct as per the original post, and whether the rest of them were necessary, as all seems OK so far.
Thanks for the other two though, I'll keep them on the card in case things aren't working correctly. TBH, I hadn't thought to search for orange settings as cabs, as I'd been searching for the settings themselves, and didn't realise they were available in cabs.
Might be an idea for a sticky somewhere?
i think the last cab is in a sticky somewhere.
and you're right, a lot of the orange setting are minimal, for example, i don't think they have passwords in their settings etc
sorry, been away for last 2 weeks, and decided to not be fussed about fixing things for a change
it appears i now have no messaging at all, although GPRS works fine. i
Have been through the settings with Orange, and apparently all are OK (although i didn't mention flashed rom)... i also removed a username and password in the MMS settings which had appeared after one of the CABs, like you mention.
does anyone have or know of any screenshots with the relevant settings in the connections pages pictured for WM6 and orange?
this is odd, as i wouldn't have thought norma SMS could be affected by these settings - cannot currently send or receive
if it's just the sms settings (have you checked voicemail?)
check the following
open the 'phone program' go to menu\options\services\
tap 'Voice Mail and Text Messages' then tap 'get settings'
the text number should be
+447973100973
(voice mail
+447973100123)
if these settings are not missing/wrong or doesn't sort it out if it is wrong, then I'm sorry but I don't know the answer
thanks again for your help -I've checked all those as well now, and all seem correct too, although I'm unable to auto downwload the settings to re-confirm them [EDIT - phone is reading settings fdrom network correctly now, but messaging still not working] ...
I'll pull some screenshots of my own settings off, as It's probably easier for others to see errors in my settings, rather than me expect others post theirs
if nothing goes after that, then I suppose it's a ROM issue (maybe burnt inrroectly?) and a reflash and re-install is in order
back from the dead.
thought I'd add the only CAB that seeems to have worked for me, for anyone else searching

Have you checked your connections settings? When flashing a new ROM to your device, 9 times out of 10 you will have to reset your GPRS settings.
Yes, I've checked it. I'm using WIFI not GPRS.
btw, using the funambol service & application I can see mi mail.
i have the same provlem as well with my aol account
Regardless of whether you're using WiFi or GPRS, it's imperative that you set up the connections according to the T-Mobile instructions. Make sure they are set to these specifications. http://tmobileuspublic.wdsglobal.co...=phone.vm&selectManufacturerId=9&phoneId=1828
I'm using another provider from Argentina.
Could you explain me what i need to configure?
And why it works fine in wm6 and not in wm6.1 ?
Thanks.

Go to this website: (http://tmobileuspublic.wdsglobal.co...=phone.vm&selectManufacturerId=9&phoneId=1828) It'll help you to configure your MMS and Internet connections on your Dash. Whenever you flash to a different ROM, you are running the risk of clearing out your connections settings. By flashing to a "cooked" ROM such as Kavana's WM6.1, you need to re-enter these configurations. It's really simple. Just go to the website I gave you, and follow the instructions. It'll take you step-by-step. After configuring both connections, reboot your device. As long as you set-up your email accounts correctly, they should work. One way to test them, is to click on Send/Receive in your email menu.
Nice website, that website seems to take care of a lot of problems people seem to have with either the internet or the MMS service.
aol mail fixed
i have fixed the problem... with my aol mail... i change my password from alphanumeric to just letters and it works like a charm....

When you type a text message, do all the keys work like they are suppose to? Or do you have a keyboard mapping issue (hence, you might be entering a wrong password)

I've got a bit of weird problem on HTC Desire.
I've noticed that whenever I'm using my mobile internet data (Vodafone Aus), I can't actually do any sort of web browsing, but I can use the facebook app, update the weather widget, retrieve email from hotmail + Gmail etc, basically everything that needs internet access except use the browser.
I've tried both the default and Dolphin HD with no luck - Google home page will load but that's only because its in the cache - I can't do any new Google searches etc.
I know the phone can access websites because I can browse the net when I connect to my uni's WiFi, or any other WiFi.
Wondering if there's some kind of mobile internet setting I should be changing that I'm not aware that might solve this?
I know I should call Vodafone and ask them to check if there's somehow a problem on my account on their end but figured I might ask on here first to see if anyone else has had anything like this happen before I do so - just so they don't turn around and tell me its the phone.
(when I went in to set up the plan, the lady specifically told me that they took no responsibility for their services working on a "non Vodafone phone")
Oh and I don't think its worthy to note, but just in case:
ever since I switched to the contract from pre-paid I haven't been able to send international text, despite having roaming activated. Since I switched plans when I got the new phone, I can't actually determine if its the contract, the phone, or both that's not letting me send (but I suspect its Vodafone - something else I need to hassle them about)
Any help would be awesome
Sounds like you don't have some settings. Give Vodafone a ring and see if they can send the correct settings to your phone. They won't take responsibility but they can help you like that since your using their service. If that doesn't work, have a look in the APN settings.

Thanks Meaple, I'll have a go, although Vodafone generally redirects you to their website where you input your phone model and it gives you the APN values you need to put in, which I have done.
Having said that, I can't send MMS with my phone despite having their APN values, so I know the MMS part must be wrong somehow
- I didn't think it could be the APN because the internet isn't completely inaccessible? Is it possible for apps to be able to use the net while the browser can't?
Never mind - Solved my problem.
In my attempt to fix my MMS problem way back, I changed settings around and stupidly added the "MMS Port" and "MMS proxy" as the proxy + port for internet, without realising the actual options for those two were further down.
- Deleted those, and went back and re-did the setup for the MMS as per vodafone instructions, setting up a separate "VF PXT" APN
(in my search for solutions I'd found a post somewhere saying you could combine the information for MMS and internet into 1 APN, and that's what I had done)
Cheers for nudging me to re-check APN settings, Meaple
Just flash my Defy with CM7 RC 1.5. It is very good, i am now happy.
Only one problem for now, can't send and receive any MMS message.
It is always: Currently unable to sent your message. It will be sent when service became available.
Checked APN, baseband, everything is OK. Also flash new nigthly, but without any result.
Any solution?
Tnx
Nordic works fine
After flashing nordic (step one, flashing CM 7 RC 1.5), i was able to send and receive MMS, but again, on CM 7 same error.
Please, anybody?
Tnx
I'm on same build and I have just tested sendind myself a MMS: works fine.
Just make sure that data is enabled and if you use DroidWall that you did not check the 3G/Data box of 'Messaging' or 'Any applications' [in the blacklist mode].
I also have problems receiving mms.
I received them because of froyo without 3g connection?

Well, without [Wireless & networks/Mobile networks/Data enabled] checked you will will not be able to send MMS: plain and simple. You want to send a picture over your 2G phone carrier: yes there will be fees for that.
You don't want any other things to use 2G data while you send your MMS: fair enough! So now you have to learn how to do that.
So you could spend some time going through each and every application and service on your phone that might do so and disable any automatic updating: for emails, facebook, Market ads and what not... but it could be tedious.
The easiest way for you to achieve this would be to use Droidwall [like I originally referrred to above ]. In there you will find 2 modes: 1- black list that blocks selected apks to access either wifi or 3G/data and 2- white list that does the opposite.
So install Droidwall [free from Market], make sure you select black list mode on top. And oh! you need root to use this so make sure that you also click "Allow" and check the 'remember' box when you see the Superuser permission request screen the first time.
Once that is done, seleck/check everything on the second column EXCEPT "Messaging" AND the first box called "(Any application)- Same as selecting all applications"
Additionally, select any application from the first column that you KNOW should not access internet at all (on wifi this time) --> as a bonus, doing so will block any ads from those free applications
Press the menu button and press "Apply rules" [or "save rules" the first time??] and make sure that you see "Firewall enabled" with a green line through it.
On the picture attached, you can see that I've selected the (Any application) for 3G/data instead of all except the 2 I told you. I leave it that way to block all data and when I need to send MMS, I unchecked it (and press "apply rules") for just the short time of sending the message then I re-enable it afterwards.
Any other questions? Lol - just joking I'm no Android help line hehe!
But I hope that this helped you guys; if so, you can log-in and hit that "Thanks" button here bellow: -->

Good Day,
I have flashed Cyanogenmod 7.1 onto my phone 3 times with the same resulting problems each.
It looks beautiful but I have the following issues:
1)Does not allow data to come on. (wireless does work though)
2)Not sinking to HTC Sync/ google....so no contacts, or can't get apps downloaded.
Has anyone else had simialr problems? Because I am rather confused at the moment.
Still trying to work it out.
Any help much appreciated.
Regards,
rkdeane
Hi,
You might need to configure APN by yourself. Your provider's website should give you the correct username and password. For your other problems I recommend going to the Cyanogenmod forums for advice.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Data is probably an apn set up issue as previously said. Htc sync is for sense based roms only.
Sent from my Motorola Startac running Atari 2600 software!
1. Check the APN settings and make sure it's correct. Make sure data is enabled and you are not using 2G.
2. HTC sync will not work as it's not Sense UI I believe. Make sure you flash the separate add on for google apps so you get the market installed. Go to accounts and sync found under settings and sign in with your google account. That would download your contacts from google.
I hope this helps a bit with your transition from Sense UI to AOSP.
thanks guys,
How do you change APN settings manually...when I enter APN i just get a blank screen. The other section selects them automatically....in my case LIME Barbados.
I got some info from here with the inputs:
http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s/163023-apn-settings.html
But just can't find where to input it!!
Also, with wireless on, connected to internet....it doesn't let me login to the phone with my google account...which i find strange.
for trying to sync:
i go:
Accounts & Sync -->add account --->put in gmail name/password---->
then it comes up with
domain/username : \my name
password: *******
Server: gmail.com
when i click next i get: ''Set up could not finish.... Unable to open connection to server.''
