This happens 100% of the time. The twirling wheel spend some time on it, but then I get these messages. I can make calls and browse the internet just fine. I was trying to communicate with an iphone. Thanks for any advice.

Not sure if I understand correct, but I assume you are trying to send an MMS? Does your provider support this? I know I can’t send those because my mobile provider stopped this service.

Yes. I’m trying to use MMS to send pictures and video. My mobile provider supports it. I was able to send two pictures successfully, but then it all stopped. I have a Sony XA2.

There is an app called MMS log. try if that can help to find out what is the issue.

#5

Make sure your settings are set up correctly for MMS. Also, I’ve found that if you are connected to Wifi, it will not download, and sometimes I need to cancel and restart the download of the picture and then it downloads right away.

Thanks. I’ll try these suggestions.
