iphone 4s switch to nexus 4 MMS issues

[Anonymous]

Hi all

I set up my contract on an iphone 4s in novemeber 2011, and I bought a nexus 4 and started using it in december 2012 (around the 28th). Since then I have not been able to sue the MMS function on my phone and multiple calls to o2 support have yielded many changes but still no success with being able to send a media message (and when i receive one i'm given a code to use on the o2 website to see the message)

Did you change your data from an iPhone data plan to a standard data plan?

Thats one of the first changes the support guys made to my account (and i know it worked as the bolt on reset mid month!)

New update is that i am unable to get onto the data network, where as i could this morning.

I have mobile data turned on, but the phone just shows a regular network connection rather than a connection to the data network 😞

Re your settings above:

Line 17 - Change to 82.132.254.1

Line 22 - Change to default,supl

Turn off, Remove SIM and reboot the phone after making the changes above.

I made those changes and restarted the handset. It connected breifly to the data network, but is now back on standard network (i did all of this with the handset in a fixed position on my desk to avoid moving it around for the sake of losing signal etc)

Check your postcode for signal issues http://status.o2.co.uk/ and also try MMS in a different area. The settings I gave you should work.

My postcode is coming back as having good signal on the status checker (LS3 1EP) yet i still cant connect to a data network.

Very frustrating

thanks for your help though

You need to try your phone elsewhere as there are a few weather related problems around at the moment and the status checker may not be updated. Other option is that your sim is faulty but see first if you can connect to a different mast.
