If you can get to the internet, you should be able to access android market, because it's on the web. So far I never fail to access the market, be it by using 3G or wifi.

If you insert your sim is should ask you which carrier you are on and configure your phones apns. Have to tried over WiFi and is mobile network enabled (hold down power button and select mobile network) make sure you have a data plan though. If it has a limit try 3g watchdog and apndroid. If not then contact your carrier or HTC since you may have a fulty unit

Thanks for the input guys I'll check on those.. But I am just wondering, does android market have some sort of location requirement? I mean is there a possibility that I won't be able to connect to the android market if I bought the unit in singapore then used it in the Philippines or in any other country for that matter?

Not sure it works fine in the UK. I think the location is only for paid apps. In the meantime contact HTC or try appbrain

yeah, mms can't get picture messages or anything through wifi, it has to be through the cell data stream. what he said.

thanks for the quick reply guys! i figured it out and then came here to post the solution and here it was! its weird that on stock i had mobile data disabled but it still worked... -shrug- i guess cm7 REALLY disables it in all ways... hopefully i dont run up too big of a bill

I am running CM6 and have never been able to DL MMS messages, even trying the above methods. When I was using Liberated F008 I was able to. But I prefer the CM build so it isn't that big of a deal.

This may or may not be the cause, but go to:
menu>settings>wireless & network settings>mobile networks>Access point names.
Click 'ATT'. Scroll down to 'APN type' and make sure it says "default,supl,mms". If it doesnt, change it.

That is what it is set to. Here are all my APN settings (since I figure it must be in there)

Anyone else with simple mobile having problems receiving mms on there G2?

Title says it all, mine only work every once in a blue moon.

Its the one thing that is frustrating me with their service. It has worked MAYBE Twice.
Its the APN settings. It has to be something, no pun intended, simple in them that has to be added or taken away.

Agreed, I'm trying to figure it out

Keep me posted. I have tried everything from their website to their facebook page and even from a couple of threads here on xda. It seems that its somewhat device specific. There is no true 'setting'. I just got tired of trying different things and told everyone to email me because most everyone I know has a smartphone to do that with nowadays... still would like the option though. Knowing its busted annoys.

Maybe this will help:

What's interesting is there are no MMS Protocol option in my apn settings. I am trying these and will post results anyway, though. But my experience is always different when the variables are not the same.
Edit:
Yeah, doesn't seem to be working. Just keeps sending but never finishes. This is annoying!

I have simple mobile and its working fine on my end. Sometimes receiving will lag and i wont get a picture here and there but for the most part it works. Also i only have 1 apn set but when i had my g1 i had 2(two) like the poster above said.

Me as well. There is an unknown variable. We find it, we fix our problem.
Does borealis17 own a Vision? If not, Evofision might be the exception. I waould like two know how many G2 users are also simplemobile users. Then we can get to the bottom of this!

Donations
I will give a donation to whomever can get this mms working fully functional, this is horrendously killing my ability to receive dirty pictures from women. Will donate via paypal if solution works.

I think I figured it out. I am broke and would love a donation but the decision is yours. We were kinda in this together.
I was playing around with settings and found that if I use chap authentication... BAM!!!
Also default,supl,mms in the last line as well.
Hope this helps!

sorry let me rephrase, I called simple mobile, there customer service(which is horrible btw), told me to create two apn's, one for web and the other for mms, did you do that or do you have one apn?
What is the success rate of downloading your picture messages?
also, can you just post your APN settings?
and if it works as it should, I promise I will make a donation to you.

Have you tried changing the authentication settings as yet?
I just have one apn. The thing I noticed when I put two in is that our phones only use one at a time. There is no switch off component. we choose which settings and thatss the one it uses. I did that with the recommendation from the user who posted the settings and had a differnt set for the mms. After doing it I saw that it was useless because of the fact that you can only use one at a time.
I have sent myself photes on a number of occasions and they have worked everytime. I have noticed that it DOES NOT work on wifi. My apn settings are the default set with the authentication set to chap. That's it! Go to the apn settings and hit menu, then hit reset to default. It takes a minute or two. After, when it gets set, go to the and set chap auth. That's it.
I have tried to upload a screen shot but all the browsers and even the xda app won't let me. But that's the subject of another thread!
Hope this helps. Let me know when you have tried it.

I get them but they r almost always jacked up some how. The text won't show or the picture won't show or the pic will flash on the screen for like .01 seconds...
They is why I like email on my phone lol

[Q] Help With Simple Mobile and non working MMS

Ok.. So the problem im having is that I cannot send or receive MMS messages to anyone other then myself. I have changed the APN settings to every different one I have found scouring the internet for every android phone there is settings for, and although data never has a problem no matter what settings are used, I cannot get MMS working.
Yes I have the full data/unlimited $60 plan.... Yes I know what im doing.....lol
Im just wondering if anyone else has had this same issue with the Mytouch 4g and resolved it. It makes no sense that data and regular texts go through without a problem, but no picture messages.... except to myself
Any help would be greatly appreciated and any info you need can be given.
thanks in advance.

Had this same damn issue awhile back. Can't fully remember what I did. I know I turned all data off including wifi, then reset my phone, enabled data including data roaming. Don't think I changed anything with the apn.
Also try putting it in airplane mode then pulling the battery. Replace battery turn back disable airplane mode.
Fixed a mms problem on my sprint hero also(tech support helped me with that one)
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App

I fixed it by switching to a sense rom. Not sure why that works since Cyanogen has Simple mobile as an APN already, but once I put sense on it works lol. Thanks though and Ill try those ideas when i go back to Gingerbread.

Lol nice. Kinda odd its working the same settings, could be a conflict somewhere from a app that had been installed or uninstalled. Not really sure, but good its working with another rom.

The previous Phone apn was configre for data, creating 3 other configs to deal with tether and mmsc and nat ip. with this new apn 2 of those are combine, and now is only missing the tether apn. this is a new config for the apn.
anyone having issues with apps like gosms handling images are prob not gonna have them anymore thanks to this new config.
look inside your apns before making claims!

So don't put anything for apn type?

only fill up the spaces indicated, everything else stays blank!

I'm excited...and confused:
Is this supposed to fix (specifically) MMS problems with certain apps (GoSMS)?
If I set this up and use it, is this APN "fully functional"?
Should I bother?

Tried it and I can't send a mms.

Quadrupled my speeds! I now have fiber optic business line speeds to my phone!!!
...Or not. This works just fine for me. I think it's pretty much the same for me speed-wise, though it does feel like the network responds a bit quicker. Can I get a "PLACEEEEEEEBOOOOOO" chorus? I'll use it and see if AT&T thinks I'm tethering or some other hot topic. I had no complaints previously, but I see no reason not to use this.

That is disappointing. Regular texts are perfect. MMS messages, whether picture or long text, do not send. I should have checked MMS earlier. Thanks!

No speed increase for me. Might actually be a bit slower. Thanks for post anyway.

both the normal "phone" and "wap.cingular" apn work fine for me, MMS, data, everything. the only time I switch is for tethering.
