im sure that there might be a thread for this already ..... but ive been lazy and i havent asked sprint about it ... but is the touch capable of mobile to mobile picture messaging .. everytime i wanna send a pic the selctions i get are only able to send to email... i cant select to send to a contact... is it jus cuz i cant figure it out or is the touch incapable of mobile to mobile pix messaging
mms is not yet available on sprint. in the future, you can use the search button located on the top right of this page.
there is, but since you're lazy about it maybe you should try kngtut79's advice and try searching.
you can use dashwire. I am on Bell CDMA in Canada and it allows you to send a sms to your contacts as a link to the picture which is the closest I have come to so far. Hope that helps www.dashwire.com

Not without data

Verizon MMS requires data usage to send or recieve pictures and video. I am specifically looking for a program to send and recieve MMS messages without using data. The program linked above, called sMMS, does it without using data.

This will not work for you then, it still uses data, and you need the Sprint Picture Messaging, which is of course not available for VZW users.
Verizon charges you for a MMS like it's a SMS. If not it's $0.20/msg, the package for, I believe, 250 SMS is $5/mo.

I have unlimited texting, but was told that smartphones on Verizon don't use MMS, instead they use data somehow.

I`ve been trying for a couple weeks now to get MMS working on my Touch. I got a thread going but no luck in fixing it. I came across this today though http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=35616. I called Alltel after I changed the setting, but the MMS network happened to be down at the time, so I don`t know if the setting work since nobody could send any at the time. The representative talked to the advance service tech and googled it as well, but neither could figure it out. I`m gonna call back tonight ( they said the network should be up by then) on a different phone to see if they can diagnose it. It kinda sounds like a problem with flashing roms. I know it worked for me before I started flashing, but it also happens even when you flash to an official alltel rom with a locked phone as in the case with my brother`s touch. When I upgraded his radio his stopped working. Perhaps its a network problem, hell I read that Sprint took it away from there users.
Looks like someone managed to get an unofficial release of t-mobile's wm6.5 which now has visual voicemail, they extracted the files for it and im wondering if anyone has the capabilities of creating a cab file from this.

Doesn't Work yet.
I just tried calling T-Mo and asked to enable Visual Voicemail and they said it is not available. Rumors say might be able to convince them to enable it if you say that you have an android phone and would like the android data plan but I don't know what the implications of that are. Personally until people start reporting an efficient way to get it working or T-Mo officially releases it I'm going to stick with Phone Fusion for now.

All depends on what current data/messaging plan you have...
I had the $35 unlimited data/messaging 'Smartphone' plan, switched to the MyTouch Unlimited Data/Messaging plan for the same amount and was able to activate VVM no problem.
Love it.
I started seeing that as a trend over in the other thread so I have updated my phone on the tmobile site to a MyTouch and changed to the android data plan. T-Mobile Visual Voice Mail works great. Absolutely better then Phone Fusion.

how many lines are on your plan? you may be selecting the wrong one. thats what i did. figured it out after 10 tries
Go to my t-mobile.com,select plan & services under manage,click on change services then scroll down to check visual voicemail.It will state that its free but you have to submit the changes and then it will work.Did mine about 2hrs ago.

Ok,try changing your phone to my touch 3g and it surely will work.
I called in last night and had it activated on my phone. The employee had to have their supervisor put it on because according to their system TP2 does not support it and therefore I must have been using a 3rd party app which is unsupported, but working anyway!
T-mo VISUAL voicemail synchronization
Does the t-mo VISUAL voicemail automatically synchronizes and updates its list with a new VM or does one have to do it manually each time a new msg is received?
I have the 5.99 t-zones data plan. If change my phone to the my touch 3g, it is going to require a different data plan. Will my account get flagged in a negative way?
This would be a fun feature to have, but I am willing to not use it if it's going to require me to upgrade from t-zones.
Any help or feedback is appreciated!

So I'm talking with the reps and they are saying if they switch to MyTouch and Adriod plan that Internet on the Tpro wont work possibly, I assume that is BS and they are only saying that for support reasons yes?
I am currently using a stock everything 6p with a Verizon sim for some strange reason today I'm not able to send or receive pictures on the stock messaging app. I read a few other people been having this same issue. Has anyone found the solution yet?
Are you using pushbullet by chance?

Couple of things. 1 check to see if you connected to LTE, You cannot send MMS over wifi on Verizon. They took that feature out, dont know why. Second, Check to see if there any old MMS that are stuck, its good idea to delete all old MMS that are pending to be sent and retry.
Someone else posted something similar the other night, they had one of those old MMS stuck in resizing. He deleted that message and his MMS started working again.
I have a similar problem since I updated to Verizon Message version 6.06. I could not go back to the last version, and I was unable to find the prior version APK file; however, Amazon had a very old version of Verizon Message, so I loaded that and it fixed the issue. I was also able to use the stock message app to get and send MMS, but with Verizon's app I could not.

Hi, without trying to hijack the thread, why solid this be an issue? I am having trouble with my s5 cm 13 alpha and assumed it was because of that, but does pushbullet affect it?

I had trouble with my 6p sending MMS. After googling it, I found people with the same issue and quite a few had pushbullet installed and said that once they uninstalled it, it worked fine. Once I uninstalled it, MMS started working again.

This happened to me the other day. I tried turning data on/off, airport mode on/off, restarting the device, clearing data&cache from the Messages application as well as reverting Messages to factory and reinstalling the updates.
Either by chance or by one/all of those things, it seemed to clear up.
This is not just Verizon, it's happening to T-Mobile also but I don't think it's a carrier issue. My nexus 5 does the same thing as my 6p. Rebooting the phones and it starts working again. This affects group messaging also. When I receive a group text it days unable to download. Restart they phone and it comes through. Hopefully this is a marshmallow issue that will hey fixed ota.
It's the app. Mostly happens to me when WiFi is connected with "WiFi calling" enabled. I disable WiFi and reboot the phone and then everything works again. It happens to me once in every month, if that. Don't bother me much.
I went into the stock Phone app to activate my voicemail with T-Mobile, but each time I try I get a "Cannot activate voicemail" error. Did a lot of Googling, and it sounds like a lot of people have run into this. T-Mobile support was useless. I know I can use T-Mobile's Visual Voicemail app, but that would be my Plan B. I've tried installing and then uninstalling the T-Mo voicemail app. Has anybody else run into this and figured out a solution?

for clarity, the built in voicemail client is a VVM client?

Yeah, the stock phone app has built-in visual voicemail
Can't activate either. Even on old phone. The general consensus is they do not allow 3rd party vvm apps with their service.
This comes from someone who called twice, filed a complaint against first, and explained in depth what the issue was, spending 40+ mins on the call.
I'll follow the thread but it seems like you have to use the VVM app.
does att allow you to use your built in vvm client?

I wouldn't expect much in the way of updates on this issue. T-mobile has been disabling built in visual voicemail on Android phones for years with some sort of network side switch. A handful of people have gotten it to work on some unlocked Pixels and maybe one or two other devices, but the results are never reproduceable.

on my last phone (OnePlus 6T) I had to use the T-Mobile application when not rooted. When I had root I was able to get visual voicemail with transcription via the Google (Pixel) Dialer and changing some lines of an xml file in the root directory and also install the Google phone app as a system app.

Yeah voicemail is fine for most of us too. VISUAL VOICEMAIL doesn't work in the stock dialer. It requires the T-Mobile app downloaded from the app store. :silly:

so what do we need to do to pressure t-mo to make this work?
It's always worked on my pixel phones and I never never thought twice about it until aquiring my oneplus8pro. Now if it's working on pixel by default, I'm assuming there is a way for it to work on Kona, just need to figure it out. Just thought I'd share my opinion & of course if I learn something new, I will report.

That’s pretty lame forcing more spam ware onto us like this. Last built in VVM that worked for me using T-Mobile was with an unlocked USA mode note 9.
Anyone else in the US that got the unlocked phone have RCS (Chat settings) in there messages app?
For clarification, I know Google messages can use RCS, I am asking about Samsung messages.
Samsung messages on unlocked Note 20 Ultra using Verizon does not work.
I'm using Google messages and rcs is working with mine but haven't used Samsung messages.
Update to add that I'm on Verizon.

T-Mobile, US Unlocked Version purchased from Samsung using Google Message. Chat Features are active and show Status: Connected. Can use the features with other RCS on Google Messages users. Seems to work for me.
I downloaded Google Carrier Services and it works for me.

I'm not sure if this could work but if you use Google Messages Rcs. Try clearing data then open and see if it changes and clear data again and should likely show up with turning on. Might have to do a 3rd one if it still not configuring correctly. Had to do clear data twice on mine to get it to set up and activate.
I haven't checked the Samsung messages but you could try this as well. But can't say if it will work or not or if it is something with unlocked and t-mobile. As had this message come up first time opening Google messages with Verizon.

Hope it works if not was worth a try. You can try clearing once more to see if it grabs.
I just remember that someone mentioned to clear data to get the Google messages rcs to work.

This might help even though it is for a Google 4 phone it could potentially work in this situation. If not then hope someone else could check and help on this.
