I'd like to be able to Send directly from my picture viewer.

I figured this one out. Here's the info if you're interested...

In your RegEditor, go to:
HKLM > Software > Microsoft > Inbox > SVC > MMS

Change the "DefMsgClass" from "IPM.FLIX" to "IPM.PIX"

Soft Reset & viola', now you can send MMS directly from your Picture Viewer.


Disclaimer: This may seem elementary to some of you (you guys amaze me with some of the stuff you do), but this was a big deal to me.

Thank your for the hack! I had no idea when i bought the 700wx that it didn't have Picture Mail.

I also encountered the tmail.exe error after installing this. It comes up every once in a while when I use regular txt messaging.

So when I click on a picture and choose send I get the following options:

Outlook E-mail

MMS
(User@User.com

New Pix Message (MMS)
(User@User.com

SMS (grayed out)

MMS

How do I remove all the entries I don't need and only show the ones I need (the Correct MMS and the Outlook E-Mail) and delete the others??

Hello to all I am thanking everyone in advance for any help that can be given. I just recieved my treo and I think it is the greatest phone ever. I especially started to think this when I found out that there was a way for me to send pics using this link.

However, I am completly lost in trying to use this program. I have downloaded it to my phone. I have downloaded it to my desktop and synced it over. However on my phone it keeps saying "There is no application associated with PPCGeeksSprintMMS. Run the application first then open this file from within the application.

I am lost I hate to admit that but I really need some help? And the funny thing is that is is probably a really simple step that i am missing.

That's because you copied the ZIP file to your Treo and you do not have an app to handle ZIP files on it. You have 2 options, you can either delete that file from your device and then unzip the original ZIP file on your PC. This will provide you with a .CAB file which you can then sync and execute on your device to install this hack.

Or you can go to the top of the forum and check the FAQs thread to find out where to get applications that handle ZIP files on the Treo.

Finally success I was able to download a zip program to my phone and then I was able to follow the first option. However, I would still like to know what I did wrong on my pc (I spent numerous hrs trying to get this thing to work and I couln't ) You guys are the greatest =D> =D> . Can I delete the zipped version of my phone now that it is installed? I thank you all so much and it feels good to know that I have a resource to come to when I have a problem with this phone cuz sprint is no help at all.

Don't know what could have happened the first time, glad it's working now!

Add one more person getting the tmail.exe error.

Also, sorry if this was explained earlier, but I'm still a bit in the dark.

I have SERO with free Picture Mail and also have free text messaging. Am I going to be charged for sending a Picture Mail via MMS?
