In the same boat. MMS forever downloads, only says SENDING. Grrr.

Works great for me! Doublecheck your settings. There are many, many people on Sprint that have fully functional MMS (with the right settings configured).

well i was able to receive an mms from my sister..however, i tried sending a picture and it didnt send..i waited for like 8 mins and then finally just gave up..shouldnt sending mms be the same settings as receiving mms?

Checked and rechecked my settings. Wasn't until after a reboot that it started working. Persistence paid off.

Hrm, I guess try rebooting like Imaginos did?

IIRC, the APN is only used for sending. Once the code was there in the system image to handle Sprint MMS properly, reception "just works" without any setup.

Wirelessly posted (Opera/9.80 (Android; Opera Mini/6.5.26571/26.1023; U; en) Presto/2.8.119 Version/10.54)

I noticed that Data must be enabled for me to be able send MMS if using built in Messaging app. Would not work using WiFi with Data disabled.

Go SMS Pro on the other hand, worked with WiFi.

That's an interesting distinction... I wonder if the built-in messaging app can't function over wifi...?

Might be something to look into, see how native Android devices handle this...

This would be very useful for Boost pay as you go customers running FRX especially new accounts since they upped txt from 10¢ to 20¢.

I would assume you'd still get hit with the text fee, but you wouldn't get hit with the data usage fee (if you have a limited or no data plan).

Even if both users were sending via wifi or one had unlimited and the limited/sans data plan used wifi?
