Why won't mms open? Android won't send or download MMS

It's time to tell how to set up MMS on android smartphones.

So, as always, the instructions are divided into simple and understandable steps. But before that, we need to explain to our reader why MMS doesn't work on his phone. The reasons, as always, are quite banal. However, if the instructions do not help, you will always understand the essence of the problem.

When modern smartphones are first launched with a SIM card, they themselves determine the mobile Internet and MMS settings. However, this only happens with new SIM cards that already contain such information.

In such a situation, the phone must create two points, taking them from the SIM card or receiving data via the GSM network:

1. Internet access point
2. MMS message transmission points

If your SIM card is many years old, there is a high probability that the phone will not be able to “identify itself” in the operator’s network. What to do then? This is exactly what we will tell you, because:

Step 1. Go to the phone settings. We are interested in the item "More" in the new Android ICS. Or "communication settings", as well as analogues of this phrase.

Step 4. Click on the auxiliary menu and select "New access point". In the example shown, the MMS point has already been created, so don't look at it. In your case, the dot will most likely be missing. If it is present, but MMS is not sent, then delete existing point and create a new one.

Step 5. Well, this is the list of parameters that we will need to enter for the new point, and then save it. To find out parameters of your operator, see below.

These parameters are indicated only for the Moscow and Moscow region. Note that in the case of Beeline and Megafon, indicated only different data. Therefore, for Beeline and Megafon subscribers: first look at the MTS data, and only then the additions to your operator.

Today, many users prefer to turn to email, social networks, and communication applications to send media files. However, there are still adherents old model sending photos and pictures using the MMS system. Setting up a smartphone is not fundamentally different from the method of setting up previous generation phones. Let's look at how to set up mms on Android using all available methods.

First of all, it is recommended to call your telecom operator and make sure that this service is active for the specified number. Paradoxically, numbers in some regions are deprived of the ability to send mms. Therefore, activating the mms system will be absolutely meaningless in this case.

It is recommended to call the operator and find out all the details for your number. If the service is available (the probability of which exceeds 95%), then the most in a simple way is a request for automatic MMS settings. The settings are sent to the requested number, saved, after which the user can send media messages.

Contact your operator, name the exact phone model, since each brand and series has personal parameters, and order the settings. Some Android models do not provide an automatic configuration system, “thanks to” which the user will have to download the service manually. This will be discussed further.

Setting up mobile Internet and MMS on the phone - algorithm:

1. Activate mobile internet through the telecom operator you are using. Please note that some Androids allow for the use of two SIM cards. Therefore, when activating the Internet, you must select a specific number;
2. Go to the smartphone menu by selecting the “settings” section;
3. We visit the “wireless networks” window, select the “data transfer” item, activate this option;
4. After this, we return to the “wireless networks” menu, go to mobile networks and select an access point;
5. In this window, you must indicate the SIM card that you will use to send and open received messages;
6. Click on the selected SIM card; if, after clicking, two access points do not appear in front of you (one for the Internet and one for the MMS option), then you will have to add the access point yourself.

Please note that the data entered will be personal for each operator. There is no single universal system for setting up mms. Let's look at what access points look like for different communication providers.

How to send MMS messages from Android - operator settings:

• Megafon – to receive settings you need to send a message to number 5049. You will receive an automatic package of parameters. The user needs to open and save the sent settings, and feel free to use the service. In case manual settings you need to enter the data indicated in the picture;
• Beeline - to request an automatic package, you must use the number 06741015. You can also configure the mms option in the section personal account. Manual activation occurs as follows;
  
  
• MTS - automatic setup is available by calling 1234. An alternative option is to use the Internet assistant for setup. Manual activation looks like this;
  
  
• Tele2 - automatic setup will be available after calling the operator. Manual activation is filled out like this.
  
  

This is important: setting up MMS is quite simple, regardless of which telecom operator you use. However, please note that the average cost of one message will be 7 rubles. It is much more profitable to use modern technologies for free.

Today, the MMS service, no longer something unusual and new, remains one of the most popular because it allows you to transfer files, including photographs and various images, with maximum convenience.

Many users specifically try to choose exactly those operators cellular communications, which provided batch mms messages. For example, the MTS company has packages offered to clients for ten, twenty, or even fifty messages, “MMS+” - a discounted service, and special tariff plans with unlimited MMS messages. There is even a free MMS show in the arsenal!

You have to set up MMS on Android for two reasons:

• Purchasing a new smartphone;
• If the settings have been reset to factory settings.

In any of these cases, you will have to change the configuration for the service to work. You can do this in 4 ways.

Automatic setup

Here, as the name suggests, our participation is minimal, and this is very good. The bad thing is that you can use this setting only once - when you first register the device in the network of the selected cellular operator. After this, everything should be already configured, and, as a rule, retrieving data is not required. The algorithm of our actions is as follows:

• Installing a SIM card;
• Turn on the device (if necessary, enter a PIN code). After registration is completed, the required values ​​are searched in your operator’s database and the information is sent to your device.
• After receiving the configuration profile, we accept it and save it. Automatic setup completed.

Operator assistance

This method, like manual entry, can be used an unlimited number of times. But! As you understand, it will not be possible to sit straight on the fifth point, since you will have to perform certain manipulations.

Each operator mobile communications has a consultation number (the service is free):

• Beeline – 0611;
• MTS – 0890;
• Megafon – 0550;
• Tele 2 – 611 (or 679);
• Motive – 111.

Next, following the instructions of the automatic informant, we establish a connection with the operator, and order the necessary settings, accept them, and save them. Then we reboot the device. Sometimes the service needs to be activated, then we call again and ask the operator to activate the service on this number. This completes the MMS setup.

• Select “mobile networks”;
• Go to “access points”, check the “mobile data” box;
