Do I need a data plan to send photos via text

Send Photo via Text MessageOpen the “Messages” app.

Select the + icon, then choose a recipient or open an existing message thread.

Select the + icon to add an attachment.

Tap the Camera icon to take a picture, or tap the Gallery icon to browse for a photo to attach.

Add text if desired, then tap the MMS button to send your image with your text message.

You need to have data available on your phone plan. You may call your customer service number to confirm your phone has data available and active on your phone plan.

Check your service plan, you might not have a data plan that would allow you to do this.

you have to have a data plan first,then you need to contact your cell carrier to update your APN settings,they are different for every carrier

You have to have a data plan and you can either have an email sent to you or a text message sent to you with the photo as an attachment. Check with your carrier to make sure you have a data plan. You might want to get an unlimited one, Photos take up quite a bit of data. You can send one by right clicking on the photo or menu while viewing the photo and then a menu will appear asking you what you want to do . You can touch SEND or ATTACH to send one. Hope this helps. You may already have a data plan, if you do make sure you set up your email so you can recieve emails on your phone. Good Luck.

Try accessing the web browser. If you are able to load the page, this rules out one possibility. If you are unable to load the web page, contact your service provider (AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, whomever) to verify you have a data feature active on your line.

If you were able to load the web page, contact your provider because some type of provisioning is incorrect with your internal MMS settings.

Check with Sprint to see if you have a data plan for MMS. Text plans are different from data plans that support MMS for sending and receiving pictures. Sounds like data is being blocked.

Do u have a text message plan? Do you have the internet turned off? Either of these would prevent you from sending a MMS (multi-media message) to an email address. That should be the first thing I would check. (Call ATT and ask if the internet is turned on).

then it should be as simple as texting: yourname@serviceprovider in the to slot to send...
