Treo Pro using with T-mobile cannot download mms message.

Whenever i recieve an mms or picture message i click 'download' and then on the home screen it shows the message about what percentage it is downloaded and it only shows 0%, never changes, and i never get to view the mms message.  I am using Tmobile. if anyone else has had this problem and knows how to fix it let me know.

Re: Treo Pro using with T-mobile cannot download mms message.

In messaging go to Menu the MMS options. Click on the server showing there and manualy program it with your carrier's settings. See if that helps.

You would need to get those form your carrier.

Re: Treo Pro using with T-mobile cannot download mms message.

you need to call t-mobile and they will walk you through the process. once you get an operator tell them your plight and they will transfer you to 3rd tier tech support (or something like that) and the people familiar with palm will help you.  i just did mine today.  only problem i'm still having is that i cannot download my emails or login to msn messenger unless i'm connected to wifi. anyone have any ideas about that?  i have the $5.99 internet package on my line as well as the unlimited family texting plan.

  3. In the Port number: field, enter 8080

Re: Treo Pro using with T-mobile cannot download mms message.

1. Start, Settings, Connections, and then tap the Connections Icon
2. Under "My Work Network" tap Add a New Modem Connection
3. Name it Picture Messaging and under Select a modem select (GPRS,3G)
4. Under Access Point Name type: wap.voicestream.com
5. Username, Password, and Domain is left blank and then click Finish
6. Now, go into Proxy Settings and check "This network connects to the Internet" and check "This network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet"
7. Under the Proxy Server box type: 216.155.165.050
8. Tap the advanced button and tap on the HTTP line. Make sure the HTTP settings shows 216.155.165.050:8080. If not, change it.
9. Click the OK button a few times to get out of the settings completely.

 

 

These steps worked for me, I hope they work for you
