Hey badboy, can you explain how yours works through the Juicy rom? Does it work like the OPs or do you have to go through a link?

Any ideas?

I don't know if this will help you but I had problem trying to send when I clicked on "New" to create a new message. I tried a work around where I opened PIE so the internet would start then I opened the Sprint Picture Mail and New then it got my information and worked.

So you're on Sprint, using a Sprint Diamond, with the Telus Juicy 1.1 rom and MMS works?

Interesting, wouldn't doesn't Telus have different server settings than Sprint? What's further interesting is the fact that it may perhaps be full blown MMS or are both carriers using the same "fix"..

i send messages thru the new sprint carrier pigeon service, i take a pic with my phone go down to walgreens and print it out then i get a sprint carrier pigeon to deliver the picture to the person that i am sending the picture to.

I was able to get the Picture Mail working as per the OPs (technically)out of the box. It just took a whole day until it started working. I couldnt send picturemail until I asked someone to send me a picturemail me. I got no notification for the entire day...then I went to Send/Recieve within the Sprint Picture Mail Inbox a few hours after the pic was sent and my Diamond took a long time to initialize everything but in the end I successfully recieved the MMS.

Just to add, I had a Samsung Instinct before this with a Talk/Message/Data family plan so my account was already setup for Picture Mail. This could be the deciding factor. You guys may need to call Sprint about this as this could just be an account setup issue.

I finally got around to testing Picture Mail and it works. I have a Sprint Diamond I got yesterday and it is the stock rom. I did not install any .cabs to make it work.

When I first got my phone and clicked on Pic Mail icon, it gave me an error when starting up. I did not try to send or recieve anything. I remembered that I had to sign up for Pic Mail with my new phone number so I did that. I still did not try it out yet.

I was playing around with other stuff to edit thouchflow and I started getting errors so since I had not done a lot of customizing yet, I decided to do a hard reset and see what would happen if I didn't let customization run, so I did a soft reset before it ran. After it started back up, customization ran anyway so I just let it run and then went to bed.

I have not done anything else to my phone yet so I tried Pic Mail again. I did not get the error during start up so I sent my sister a picture. She is on att and I did not have to enter anything, just selected her phone number from contacts. I told her to send one back if she got it. She just sent me a pic and it showed up on my phone in my mail folder in the pic mail account. I did not have to go to a web page to download it or save it.

The only thing I can think of for people having problems is that maybe you need to sign up for pic mail before you run the program the first time so it gets set up properly with your account info, so if you have not yet signed up for a pic mail account under the phone number your are using, you need to do that first, then it might be worth trying a hard reset.

Just a note if you are wondering. A hard reset will reset everything on your phone except the internal storage. It does not touch that.

I hope this helps and you get your pic mail working, it is pretty slick.

LOL!

[evilecho]

thats pretty sweet, can't wait to get mine

[badboy8813]

yeah mine works the same way op's does all you have to do after you install the cab is to make sure you hit send and receive

[ret2961]

Okay, please be gentle.

I have installed the cab over the ROM, I still only get text messages with web links, which open Opera like the (crappy) old days.

Are some of you saying you have REAL pic mail?

When I send a message, the message is staying in MY inbox (although I did confirm they go through to a Touch, which is using sMMS with no trouble).

I do not get a camera icon and I never get a picture, just a crappy old link.

What am I missing?

Thanks
