mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

I am hoping someone has a solution for my problem...A friend upgraded my xv6800 with sprint rom 3.35.651.2 and radio version 3.35.04..everything on the phone works great..I have gps functioning and full youtube my only problem is my mms messaging is completely gone...Is there a way to get it working without having to reflash my phone since I dont want to lose all of the stuff thats been done on it already. If someone can give me a guide to fixing the problem it will be greatly appreciated. Hate to sound like a newbie but thats exactly what I am when it comes to all this stuff.

Put this cab on and it will make your MMS work. It is a cab with MMS fixed for VZW. The cab came from xda.

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

will this cab work for htc touch sprint? just wondering

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

No this is the alltel cab. Sprint does not support MMS for some reason. There are threads about sending MMS through email floating around though.

What does mms do?

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

I installed the cab file but whenever I try to send a message to anyone it says error address cannot be found and I cant recieve any picture messages either...is there any setting that I need to change in the server settings in the messaging options for mms? It does show verizon wireless as the network in those settings.

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

In the MMS Configuration choose Verizon Wireless server settings -
Server name: Verizon Wireless
Gateway: leave blank
Port Number : 80
Server Address: http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

I suspect his error actually reads " Originator address cannot be found". To fix this he needs to install GC's cab again. Sometimes the setup dll doesn't get the X-VzW-MDN input... Just run it again.....

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

I still cannot send any messages " Originator address cannot be found"...Does anyone have any other suggestions?..Help is greatly appreciated......

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

The only other thing I can suggest is to check these registry settings on your phone.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\mm1\WspHeader]
"X-VzW-MDN"="myphonenumber" (string! not DWORD)
"User-Agent"="utstar67kv1"
"Accept"="application/vnd.wap.multipart.related"

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

I am using the titan 20270 kitchen and have acrsoft mms but cannot configure it to work properly. Under Wspheader I have Accept, Accept-Charset,hmac-md5-key, and user-Agent. I'm not seeing x-Vzw-Mdn. Do I just add this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I might as well have an iphone with out this feature. :)

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

How can I check the registry for those settings?

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

Yes you need to add it.

You need to have a registry editor to do so. Go here to find one for free.

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

Look for SMMS which is floating around on the boards here somewhere. It sends picmail through the sprint website. It is donationware but has a ~8sec nag screen when starting and when sending if you don't donate $5 or more. If you donate it will also automatically grab pictures as they come in (or so I hear). Works very nicely though and is relatively as seamless as a real MMS app. Sending through email is a huge PITA as you have to know their carrier (or look it up somehow). SMMS works much better.

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

MMS is multimedia message service. allows attachments which SMS short message service does not. seems that some carriers and the Iphone people would rather you use an email account to send and recieve.

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

That works great for Sprint users but I assume these people have VZW. The name of the thread is MMS on VZW after updating to Sprint ROM.

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

I've followed everything here and still am getting the "Originator Address not found" error.
I have un-installed and re-installed the "GC Arcsoft MMS 5.0.31.25fixed.zip" .cab and updated the registry settings...
Is there any info I can provide to help diagnose this?

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

I am in the same boat. I have tried the Arcsoft CAB a few times and edited all of the mentioned reg settings.

One other additional piece of the puzzle, it keeps blowing out the "vzw" password and prompting me for it. I have tried the remember check box in the dialog and editing it in the connection settings. It just wont stick.

That makes me think it is trying to connect to the wrong server, but the server URL is correct.

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

Export your registry settings and put them in a word doc and post it here. If you don't know how to do that just open the registry and type the in a post. Please do not post your phone number from the reg settings. Just put "myphonenuber" in the place of it.

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

What happens when you connect to the internet? Does it start the internet up correctly?

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

Wow. After reading your response...to post my registry settings... and replace my cell number with "myphonenumber", I had one of those total DUH moments!!!

I was putting "myphonenumber" in the registry...

Anyway, you know where this is going.

So, a thousand million thanks Ga. Med...again!!!!

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

When I checked the server settings for mms I had different items in there...but everything was greyed out and wouldnt let me access it. Running 20270. Cant send or receive on V. My registry is a good bit different than the stuff you showed us. Where do I get the fixed cab since I loaded arcsoft 5.0 from the kitchen, since the link that GaMedic left is not working.

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

So, are mms classified as emails or are they text messages? Should I have a text messaging plan if I want to send an mms?

So far, I pretty much have just dedicated a google email account for use on my phone. I don't want to use my general account on my phone - too much spam and emails with graphics and stuff.

Yep, still trying to figure all of this stuff out...

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

Mms is text not email. You are on V so email wont be used. Just need to get mms working on your device.

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

Sounds like these guys have to install DCD's Verizon carrier cab.... It sets up some of the server info...... Find it here....

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

Oh, OK. So, in order to use mms, I would have to also pay for a text messaging plan from Verizon, then, or else get whacked for 25 cents per message, right?

Darn it, with my previous data plan, I also got the free 2000 text messages/month. Now, with the $30 data plan, they took that away. Oh, well, still saving fifteen dollars per month. I guess I could add on the five dollar text package. Still would be saving money from a few months ago...

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

Yeah the old school pda sms 2000 allowance. Gone. You will need a text plan for this son.

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

Thats just awesome. I needed a good laugh.

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

Ah, well. Thanks for cluing me in.

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
 

CAB file link isn't working... I really wanna see if this would work for my 6900

Re: mms on vz xv6800 after updating to sprint rom
