Android internet mms

Hi

When I click the link on VM website to get settings the phone is listed.

I get a text message but no pin code to save them to handset.

The phone is an LG L3 E400.

Anybody any idea??

Re: Android internet mms

I didn't get the PIN either so I entered them manually -

Setting up the Device

On the device, tap the Menu icon (or Applications > Menu)
Select Settings > Wireless & networks (or Wireless Controls) > Mobile networks > Access Point Names.
Press the Menu key and tap New APN.
Select Name, enter Virgin MMS and tap OK.
Select APN, enter goto.virginmobile.uk and tap OK.
Enter the user name and password listed below. If no value is listed, leave the field blank.
User name:
Password:
Select MMSC, enter http://mms.virginmobile.co.uk:8002 and tap OK.
Select MMS proxy, enter 193.30.166.2 and tap OK.
Select MMS port, enter 8080 and tap OK.
If available, select Authentication type then select PAP
Set the APN type to mms.
Press the Menu key and select Save

You know that you have to send a MMS before someone can send to you I take it.

Hi

Yes I did know the send to receive bit.

Do you have 2 APNs one for internet and one for MMS as they all seem to be on one with my handset.

Virgin sent settings again (With PIN This time:+) and got internet set up but still no MMS.

I am wondering if I need 2 APNs

Re: Android internet mms

Many Thanks

Will try tomorrow and let you know.

Silly question probably but how does the phone know to swap between apn`s

Do I need to do anything in message settings as well?
