MMS Question
 

Upgraded to 6.1 20748 everything works great just have one problem for some reason when I receive a mms it says message is expired. I can still download it its just annoying for some reason the date is off when it comes to the mms program. Can't find a fix anywhere would appreciate a nudge in the right direction Thanks

Re: MMS Question
 

There was some problems associated with time/date but were fixed. I am not sure if you cooked in your arcsoft or not, but try to install the verizon arcsoft cab from here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...erizon+arcsoft

Re: MMS Question
 

I have it cooked in the rom I was hoping there was a registry edit so I didn't have to cook another rom without it and cab install

Re: MMS Question
 

Even if it's cooked into the ROM, you can still install it with a cab after the flash.

I have had to do that myself & it works just fine.

have a problem. i have installed this vzn cab through the kitchen and on its own and am still having problems. i keep getting an invalid user name and password. anyone out there have that info? i know its my 10 dig number but what should be behind the @ after the number and whats the password? also is there anything i need to change in epst? just so you know i have an altel phone switched to vzn. everything else works but the pic/video messaging. thanks for any help.

Re: MMS Question
 

You need to install the verizon carrier cab drom DCD as well, GC's cab uses a setup.dll during install that finds your MDN and inputs the proper registry entries..... Here you can find the carrier you need... http://dcd1182.n715dp.com/index.php?dir=carriers%2F

installed the .cab and still says invalid UN and PASS. gonna try to call vzn tech support. oh joy.

Re: MMS Question
 

Your username and password should be blank......

Re: MMS Question
 

I doubt that will help. Way back when I first had a new verizon xv6800 I couldn't send MMS pics at all.

I didn't even realize it at first as I hardly ever do it, but when I realized it didn't work in a brand new phone it irritated me.

One day at work, I was all caught up & had some time on my hands so I called vz tech support. I got a very cool friendly chick on the phone. She tried very hard to be helpful & went back & forth with a couple other techs at her end also. I was on the phone with them for almost an hour & a half but they couldn't resolve it & said they would send me a new phone.

I didn't really WANT a new phone as I had spent two weeks adding programs/customizing etc & other than the MMS everything was perfect. I spent quite a while googling the problem & actually fixed it the next day by installing the recommended version of arcsoft & then correcting the server settings etc.

When the new phone came, I sent it back. I have three 6800's now, but I still have that original also & it still works great (although it's been re-flashed 50 times etc etc)

Ooooops - I am mistaken - Your username should be in this format.

XXXXXXXXXX@vzw3g.com The X's are your cell phone number (10 digits)

The password is blank - Don't forgot to check the Save your password box....

Re: MMS Question
 

tried everything with no luck. was on the phone with tech support for about 45 min. even after looking up the settings on one of there test phones, nothing. we tried everything from no lines filed in to all of them with the same results. is there anything i need to look at in espt? maybe thats where the problem is where this used to be an alltel phone.

Re: MMS Question
 

got it fixed.

Re: MMS Question
 

So what was the problem??

Re: MMS Question
 

phone was an alltel phone that i flashed to vzn. for some reason under EPST>security the S. IP DUN User name wasnt there. so i punched it in and BINGO. working pic messages. thats why i asked for EPST setting but no one offered. so i called vzn and talked to a tech and asked them to go get a test phone and look it up for me.

Re: MMS Question
 

well, that was short lived. hate to bring up an old thread but still having issues. now the darn phone keeps forgetting the password. i try to send a text and i get the same UN/PW crap and when i go into the settings it gone even though it was there 5 sec earlier before i tried to send the message. any ideas on why the password wont stick?

Re: MMS Question
 

I dont see where the OP ever said he got his issue resolved. I also am getting expired error msgs and am using GCs 5.0.70.24, I am going to try my other version I was using which was 5.0.31.16 because I wasnt getting those errors then. I will post back and let you guys know what I get.

Re: MMS Question
 

ok, so I went back from version 5.0.70.24 to 5.0.31.16 and I no longer get the expired errors. Also the size limit on 5.0.70.24 was 399k whereas on 5.0.31.16 is 600k. So hopefully this will help anyone else out who is getting MMS expiration errors.

Re: MMS Question
 

Can you actually send a 600k pic?? I can set the file limit size to whatever I want in the registry, but Verizon's server will reject anything above 399k....

Re: MMS Question
 

idk really bc I usually do MMS pics from the camera and they are only 100-200k or so. But at least im not getting the MMS expired errors.

Re: MMS Question
 

try attaching 2 or 3 pics from the camera, and send it.... lemme know pls

Re: MMS Question
 

Ok, so when I do MMS, at the bottom it tells me 0/600k and the zero will change as I add pics. I successfully sent one with 2 pics at 466/600 with no issue. I then tried to send another MMS with 3 pics at 510/600 and failed. These were sent from myself to myself with no text in the subject line or body. Hope this helps.
