Updated: 02/05 - NO LONGER WORKING on Sprint - Real Picture Mail (PicMail, MMS)

[Pibe38]

This program/hack no longer works on Sprint devices, read the following announcement for more info...

Have Sprint? Have questions about Picture Mail / MMS? Read this first! - Updated 02/29/08

--------------------------------------------------

This is quoted from the 700wx thread as the same app has been reported to succesfully work on the Mogul.

PLEASE! Do not PM me with questions about the MMS hack/app. I did not develop it and do not USE it, so unfortunately I have no helpful input on this. It's not that I don't want to help, it's that I have no idea how to help you.

As said before, the text below was quoted from another post that was posted by Wideawake, our site's admin. Your best bet to get help, is to post on this thread. Hope this clears it up a little...

UPDATE 09/17/07: Please use the simple install method with the newest server settings to fix any issues with the mms app. ~Mike

EDIT: this will not send video as of yet.....I am working with a member of SU on getting this working.

Download MMS PicMail simple install .zip with .cab inside http://www.ppcgeeks.com/files/PPCGeeksSprintMMS.zip


There you have it! Go to your pics or movies and select one. Select menu, select send, then select MMS. You can now send your picture/video mail with ease.

HOW TO DO VIDEO MAIL WITH 6800:

I just spent a few minutes after i installed the MMS software playing with the camera fuctions.

In the cam go through the fuctions to the "Video MMS", which looks like a video camera with MMS written accross it.

Now take a video in this mode and send it! It will use the installed MMS function!!!

I tested it on 2 different phones and the website as i couldnt believe it.

This is awesome news for the 6800.

He's probably going to replya here later, but asksmity has sent me a PM reporting that Video MMS works too!!!

Thanks for the report! Keep the news coming!!!

Just make sure u change the camera mode to "Video MMS" which has the icon of the vid cam with MMS written accross it. Use that and send away.

This also has been tested and verified. If you want me to reply to your sticky i will, or you can post it. But this is great news for the 6800!!!

Thanks

Chris

EDIT: There you go, he was faster than me!!!

I have both programs installed and both working fine. i was even able to copy over my txt file for sms from my 6700 which is about 10mb (would cause my 6700 to frezee time to time cuz the file was so big but now runs perfectly in the 6800) i was able to test the picmail and sent one to my email which worked great. i tryed the same w/ video but got nothing.

Those of you that have the video working. Whats ur install process and settings.
