When I go to send the picture in a text message a box comes up and says the I need to enable my mobile settings I have tried to change everything in my mobile settings and get the same message every time.

Do you have MMS enabled on your device? Go into your messaging/texting settings if it has a MMS or Multimedia option, make sure it is enabled.

Also, have you tried turning it off and on again? I would try this first.

Check with your provider to see id you have sms and mms text messaging enabled.

what is the exact error message?usually,the reason why we cant send messages might be the incorrect message center numbers in the message settings.you can first try powercycling the mobile phone,turn it off then remove the memry card,sim card and battery.place back everything aftr 5minutes then turn on mobile phone and try sending message back to your own number.

To enable MMS on your iPhone 3G you just need to go to
Settings >> General >> Network >> Cellular Data Network



Then Under MMS, enter the following details:

• APN: wap.voicestream.com
• Username: leave blank
• Password: leave blank
• MMSC: 216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
• MMS Proxy: 216.155.165.50:8080
• MMS Max Message Size: leave blank
• MMS UA Prof URL: leave blank

Once entered, reboot your iPhone.
Go to Messages. There you will find the sweet little camera icon to the left of the text input box.

Congratz you have enabled MMS on iPhone 3G OS 3.0 for T-Mobile. You can use that icon to send Pictures, Audios and Videos to your loved ones at the same price as of a Text Message means NO additional charges for MMS on T-Mobile Network.
Cheers!

Hi,

If you want to send message with a picture attached, it means you are sending MMS..To send or recieve MMS you should should have a MMS SETTINGS, think you dont hace MMS setting in your phone.

My advice is ask the operator to send the MMS settings, they may send it through air and save it to your mobile, restart your mobile and you should able to MMS after then...

Please leave me comment, if you need further assistance

You can download settings from here...

just fill in required info from drop down boxes and S/E will send settings to your handset like a text message. It should prompt you to save/install, and then may ask to set as default? Select YES. Finished.
These settings will set up mobile internet which is used to download/upload the pictures, and MMS settings that enables your phone to handle the message for your network.
If you still have problems after doing this you may need to speak to your network provider as they may need to change some settings that you cannot see?
Hope that helps?

On every phone there are settings that can stop you sending texts. However all phones should still receive texts even if all the settings were changed. As the text message is directed to you mobile number you should still be receiving?
When you compose your text and select contact does the phone move them to the out/sent box?
Settings to check for sending are your 'message centre number' (your network provider can supply and they are normally different for pay monthly and pay & go) 'Message sent as' should be 'text' (not fax or email etc).
Text problems are common where people change or delete digits from the message centre number by mistake.
If you cannot receive texts i would recommend speaking to your provider for help as it may be your account details at their end? (beyond your control). Hope that helps?

Text messages are for text only. Pictures must be sent using Multimedia Message (MMS).

see if this helps, go to ''settings'', then ''connections'', then ''more'' and click on ''SMS service'' and change it to "GPRS Preferred'', and see if that works

Ok did some more looking for anyone else the may come here first. Go to ATT site that has a good guide to show you what the correct connection settngs are. Find the guide here.
