VERIZON MMS STEPS- DETAILED

[ryncppr]

**** DO THESE STEPS IN ORDER TO HAVE THIS WORK PROPERLY*******

OK, because I know this has been an issue with so many people, I have decided to make a new post describing exactly how to fix this problem. Now this is working on the Verizon XV6700 using Kirvin's Clean and Simple 3.5

Make sure you do not allow Verizon to run their rom or this will not work!!!!! (THANKS friguy3)

After loading Kirvin's Clean and SImple...you must setup your data connection... click on the icon and setup a new server...

ENTER NAME OF CONNECTION: My Connection

SELECT MODEM: Cellular Line

NUMBER TO BE DIALED: #777

USER NAME: "your 10 digit phone number"@vzw3g.com

PASSWORD: vzw

DOMAIN: Leave this blank


You then need to modify your registry to the following!

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\mm1\WspHeader]

You first need to make a STRING in this folder...

THe name of ths string is X-VzW-MDN
The value of the string is your 10 digit phone number

Should look like this:

"X-VzW-MDN"="your 10 digit phone number" e.g. 1234567890<--------- make sure you add this to the folder or this wont work!!!!!!!

Then find the following strings and change their values to the following:

"User-Agent"="utstar67kv1"

"Accept"="application/vnd.wap.multipart.related"

"Accept-Language"="en"


*****also found you can change the size limit here Scroll down to UI\Sizelimit, and change sendlimit 3 value to 512000 (this 500K)

(AGAIN THANK YOU friguy3)


Once you have done this, make sure you have set up your MMS server correctly. When you click on messaging and the server tab you will see SPRINT. Click on add new and enter the following. I left the sprint one there because I didn't want to change anything.

Server Name: Verizon Wireless
Gateway: blank
Port#: 80
Server Address: http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms
Connect Via: (whichever you use to connect to the internet)
Sending Size: 500K <----- changed my sizelimit to get this...if you don't change the limit you won't see 500K
WAP: WAP 2.0



Ok, now that you have done all the work, your going to press the camera on and notice there is no MMS Video when you try to find one. Since I am not going to be taking video from phone (quality is not great) I changed the VIDEO settings as follows:

CAPTURE MODE: VIDEO
CAPTURE FORMAT: 3GPP2
CAPTURE SIZE: Large (320x240)
Checked the box Record Limitation: Choose: 500kb

After doing all this, I soft reseted the phone. I then opened up the Camera under VIDEO...shot a test and WHAAAA LAAA it works.


Thank you friguy for all your help. To all the others that helped thank you. I finally can use AKU 3.5 and enjoy my device.

why use 3GPP2 and not MPEG-4? or will verizon just change it to 3GPP2 itself so it doesnt do anything. isnt MPEG-4 a little better?

[trife]

quick question.. if i were to stop VZW customization... and just use the phone the way it is without someone's rom flash on my 6700 would these steps work? are they even necessary?

[fddrummer06]

When I try this I get the following errors:

Data Call Failure
Error Code: 3
Network Rejected

and

Error Code 37
Miscellanious Erroneously Mobile IP Set Up Occurred


I've checked my setting over and over, reflashed and tried again, and cannot get it to work. Any ideas?

[friguy3]

i got it working but as far as i can tell you should use kirvins clean and simple and do NOT let the verizon customizations run. soft reset before it starts then do as it says...try that

[ryncppr]

Kirvin's Clean and Simple actually has all the necessary programs needed without running the extended rom.

I actually deleted my extended rom to save space. Like friguy3 said, when you set up Kirvin's rom, and then hard reset, set up the date and time then before the customizations will start in 3 seconds screen pops up, press the reset button.

This will then stop the extended rom from running and restart the ppc. I followed the steps that I outlined and it works.

THere is no reason to let the extended rom run if you are using the AKU 3.5 extended rom unless otherwise told to do so.

If you run the extended rom the Arcsoft software will not work!

Hope this helps.

i figured this out forever ago, and posted it here. You're welcome.

[friguy3]

you knew about the registry edits? this has been talked about in maybe 5 threads, multiple people working on this over the past several months, and you just saw this now? id say thank you if you had come forward and told us months ago. it is still a known problem in BigJ's Revision 9.5 (Mario!) ROM.

[computercarl]

Funny, I did.

Also funny, BigJ had it at the top of his post a long time ago as well.

At the very top of http://www.ppcgeeks.com/bigjs-revisi...-07-t3270.html , as this was based on my info to him.

Oh well.
I'm just glad you guys all got it working, not that it matters, cuz there are very few of us VZW guys, and the rest are sprint.

I guess I'm just pi$$y today. Maybe it has to do with the fact that there has been a functional rc4 kitchen somewhere for weeks now, and no one shares it. But, thats another rant....

[friguy3]

i apologize too...its what the wife does to me ya know...us verizon guys do have to stick together!
