MMS on HTC Magician running WM6.1 - Networking

Hey guys,
I have a HTC Magician running Coyulla's WM6.1 ROM with SP1 and MMS fix.
I have been trying to get MMS to work for ages, I received an MMS i was sent ONCE and it never worked since, no matter what settings i put in.
I have tried various Telstra .cabs, HTC Network Wizard, manually putting in settings etc. I have searched the interwebs for hours but nothing has worked.
Has anyone on here been able to get MMS working using this ROM on the Magician? MMS worked fine in WM2003, but quite frankly, 2003 is teh suck.
Any help appreciated, over 9000 internets to whomever gets this working for me

orange payg mms settings for wm5 ?

Hi, I recently moved to orange payg on my wizard and have got the data service working perfectly so i can browse the internet. I cannot however get picture messaging working. Ive seen the posts around the board detailing the procedure on wm2003 but im having trouble translating the information into wm5 tried a few different settings but no joy so far.
Can anyone that has mms working on wm5 / wizard for a uk payg orange sim please let me know all their settings.
Many thanks,
Kevin.
anyone ?? this is really doing my nut in !!
I'm using an unlocked vario with these settings and they work perfectly.
thank you for the reply. I just got it working however... called orange and they had 'forgotten' to enable it. Gave me 30 free pic messages so i guess its all ok in the end.
cheers.

MMS problem on Vodafone UK - please help!

Hi guys,
I consider myself a pretty good with these devices but this one's got me...even the good ol' search facility aint giving me what I need.
Basically I got an unlocked Orange SPV M3100 with a Voda UK contract SIM.
I setup all the connection details and MMS server as i've found on web but also the HTC utility which sets it all up for you. I get the internet ok but no MMS!
'Error synchorizing' or similar is what I get - it doesnt even try to fire up the data connection - immediate response and i've triple-checked the settings for the MMS server. Anyone point me in a better direction?
Much appreciated.
My bet would be the MMS port is wrong, it should be 9201. Has the same problem after using a vodafone settings cab, everything else worked, just no MMS.
Double check your settings against the 2nd post in the thread below, i have used this setup many times and these settings are all 100% right.

Hi mate,
thanks so much for your reply. Still not working but I suspect it's something to do with the new WM6 (LWVS) rom i've got..it doesn't seem to be happy with it.
I've never had a problem before with any other version...weird.
Try Black, ive had no problems on vodafone and im flashing 3.01 as i type. I also find radio 1.40.30.00 works very well on vodafone, get it from the wiki if you havnt already
Just tried Black 3.01 as well and same problem...i must be doing something stupid..i've found several sets of instructions (all the same) and used the HTC utility which installs the settings for you (you select your country and operator) and I still get the same issue.
The thing I find really weird is that the MMS application doesn't seem to even attempt to initiate a data connection - just errors straight away.
I've not flashed back to LWVS Rom as it's my preferred flavour but i've got to be doing something wrong or missing something.
My radio ROM is 1.41.00.10 - not related to that is it? I'm about to try the version our mate has suggested above but if anyone has any other ideas...please do let me know.
Thanks!
It appears i'm a turnip!
It works - now that i've had a test sent to me! But if i manually press send/recieve it errors so probably was working all along! stupid error messages.
Thanks for your help though James - much appreciated.
im having this same problem on tmobile usa. any pointers guys. ever since the first version on wm6 i haven't been able to send or recieve a mms

HTC Network Wizard

Soooo would it be possible to make the HTC Network Wizard program from the HTC Touch ROM compatible for WM5 ROMS? It is the only application I've seen to date that instantly sets up all my connections perfectly. GPRS internet and MMS both worked perfectly after running the wizard. No other application matched that for me (Orange, NL)
Setting up all the information by hand is tough, even tougher when the information you find on the web isn't consistent. I can't get my MMS settings right. Sending MMS works (but slow) but receiving is impossible.
I have the same question. I wanted to install the HTC network wizard in a cooked rom, but couldn't find it.
Looks like nobody is listening. Been looking for it for 2 days now. Still cant find it. Sigh..
there you are!

O2 MMS Problem (Fix)

I have recently unlocked my Prophet and am using it on O2. I spent ages getting the GPRS and MMS settings to work (have now re-flashed WM5 NVID ROM because I had too many problems with WM6).
When I finally got the MMS settings working, I found that photos sent to the device were reduced to 78x160 pixels and a very poor colour depth. Initially I thought it could have been my Hermes that I was sending it from, but then I read that O2 will 'determine your device capabilities' when delivering MMS. This made me think that it was a problem with O2 not recognising the phone and delivering MMS in 'safe' format.
After poking around at the O2 extended ROM for the XDA Mini S, I have found a fix.
There are 2 registry values that you need to change:-
1) HKLM\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\mm1\WspHeader\Profile
Code:
http://www.htcmms.com.tw/gen/wizard-1.0.xml
(the actual text, not the contents of the page - for some reason the forum won't let me remove the link lol)
2) HKLM\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\mm1\WspHeader\User-Agent
Code:
Xda Mini S/arcsoft-mmsua-3.0.0.xx
This fools the O2 server into thinking your phone is an XDA Mini S (which is not much of a lie). You will now get MMS in full size and full colour (providing you've got your connection and MMS service working).
Hope this helps someone because it took me ages to find the problem
Brilliant, been searching around for a fix for months. Have since moved on to unlocked SPV M700 and exactly the same problem (with O2 MMS).
genius m8, have just changed setting on M700 and hey presto full size mms!
glad it helped - i was searching for ages too (well seemed like ages, was 5 hours lol)

Hiya Burnes,
Its the original orange rom but I unlocked it with lokiwiz and I can use my payg O2 sim as phone and sms . I haven't got round to trying a new rom yet coz there are so many and I'm confused about the hard/soft spl stuff and worried about bricking it!!!! . My M600 is G4 and the start up settings are as follows
IPL 2.10.0001
SPL 2.10.0001
GSM 02.07.20
OS 2.10.1.22
WIN MOB 5
OS 5.1.195
BUILD 14847.2.0.0
I think I have got the correct mms settings but I think its the connection thats causing me the probs. Today I managed to "send"the messages and o2 took the money off my account but the messages only went to the outbox not the sent box.
Cheers for your help so far. o2 says muy card is set up for pic msg but I am getting mighty fed up with the whole thing!!!! : (
well done sir, going to change the settings on my Herald now!
Does anyone know the reg fix to enable you to add/remove mms settings?
@ burnes
thanks for this reg tweak. Been looking for something like this for ages.
Works a treat on my TyTN II.
Thanks again
k-c
In relation to my problem:
In your registry goto:
HKLM/SOFTWARE/Arcsoft/ArcSoft MMS AU/Config/UI
There you will find a key called "EnableServerEdit" set it to 1 and you will be able to edit the server settings.

I'm really not sure about the connections. Took me ages to get the connections working, but I didn't figure out what it is that I changed. What I can tell you is:
Network Wizard wouldn't save the settings
Manual settings (from FileSaveAs) connected and MMS got to 99% but no further
I messed about with so many settings that I really can't remember how I got it working. Sorry I can't help more, but have a look at FileSaveAs, just search for 'O2 MMS GPRS Settings' on Google.
Hiya Burnes, thanks for lookin for the settings for me . I know exactly what you mean. There are so many variables and I did exact same thing. Finally got round to emailing o2 3 times with no reply, phoning them twice and gave up. Got an orange payg sim, registered it within 2 hours , put money on it. got the settings from orange website and sent mms no probs. Also can access internet too, so after about 10 years I left o2 and my number changes over later this week !!!!! Im free at last!!!
PS , I also managed to hard spl the SPV M600 and have upgraded with Cloudyfa's wonderful WM6.1 Shadow rom. It seems to be very stable, battery normal my sony DR-BT20NX bluetooth stereo headphones work fine with media player and tcpmp what more could I want ?
Well I will be putting my settings for O2 on my WM Wiki site this week. As it's only a sideline at the moment, I haven't had much time. I will post a message here when I have figured aout the correct settings.
Glad you got it working in the end!
Hi Guys,
i reliase that is an xda forum and covers xda topics but i am experiencing the exact same problem on a Samsung D880. this phone is not supported or avialable in the UK. i have only had it two days and thought it was faulty! i have played with all sorts of settings but no joy. i have checked all the mms settings. Is there anyway i can fool the 02 network into thinking this is a differnt Samsung model??
Cheers

Samsung devices are not Windows Mobile based. I wouldn't have thought that there is a way, but I doubt anyone here has one to look at never mind knowing enough about them to do it.
Try finding a website that specialises in Samsung phones.

i realise that and like you say its not going to be as doing it on a windows based phone. Cant seem to find a Samsung specialist website.
Silly question but can those that experienced this problem on O2 before the fix did you try picture messsaging using T-mobile, Orange or Vodafone? Did you have the same problems with these networks.?
Problem exists on o2 Uk only - I set up an spv m600 for a neighbour on voda and tested the mms settings, picture received full size whereas my wifes on o2 always tiny pictures until this reg hack applied have used this hack on my wifes new spv m700 (Trinity) running latest WM6.1 MARY Rom and it works on that too.

Cheers! i just confirmed this my sending an mms to the phone with a T-mobole PAYG sim. Its only a problem with O2. Tried to speak to someone at O2 but was a complete waste of time and they said it was a problem with my phone being a non uk model!twats! not as good as what Samsung told me. He said that Samsung phones can only support picture messages sent to other Samsung phones and and not other manufacturers phones. I told the guy to stop being stupid and put me through to the technical department. His reply - I do work in the technical dept sir! scary!

HD2 Connection Setup Cab Help (O2 Hd2)

Afternoon to you all. Its my first post here so please be gentle.
I used to be on Esato and Im frequently on o2 forum so If i can help in any way i will always try to.
However I do need some help if possible and possible a cab to resolve the issue.
I have got a O2 HD2 rom 1.43.
Its unlocked from o2 and Ive no major issues with the rom at all (all recent updates installed from htc)
However o2 has kindly modified the Connection Setup cab in the settings menu.
When you click on it, you get uk and iom and thats it.
If you pick UK you get o2 only
If you pick IOM, again you get IOM network settings.
Is it possible that some one can extract the propper HTC Setup Cab which i think is 3.1? which has all countries and networks.
At present ive managed to use a version from the HTC Diamond, but this is ver 1.5 and for some reason is very very slow, but does have most of the networks, but not all.
I would be really greatful if some one could help and post it for me.
I know i could use put generic rom on, but im not sure why, but i like my o2 logo (Sad i know )
Thanks in advance for your help.
Update.
When i installed version 1.5 from the diamond my MMS stops working completely. When I have removed it too, It goes back to the orginal 3.1 but again no MMS any more
There is a network connection cab somewhere round here, as i used it for my o2 hd2 to get t-mobile UK settings.
Though i had to search the interent to get the MMS server settings, as it doesn't change that.
i cant find any cab for hd2. i can for diamond. ive got my mms working by removing version 1.5 but was hoping that someone had extracted the hd2 version from the hd2 rom. i tried 2 different versions of 1.5 and it can take on average 20 secs to even geg into the connection settings.
did the one in my pm not work?

Just seen it, Can thank you enough. It worked like a treat. Ive pm you back.
Thanks again for you help.
I feel like i have a generic phone now. just wish o2 would release 1.66 lol.
But im really happy. Thank you
Glad to hear it worked.
Can you please share me the Connection Set up cab
Hi,
Just saw your post after searching a lot on the internet. I also seem to have a same problem. I have a HTC-HD2 from t-mobile which is unlocked, howevere I'm unabke to change the connection settings as it does not give me an option other than "t-mobile.
Any help in rectifying the above problem will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
