My cousin sent me a photo via mms and it just says Downloading all the time. I've looked on google and checked mms settings are correct and deleted lots of texts but I still can't get it and it expires 13th May. It's a Samsung S6102 dual sim. Any advice appreciated. Many thanks.

    As well as the APN being correctly configured for the service provider and the tariff.
    Understeer is when you hit a wall with the front of your car
    Oversteer is when you hit a wall with the back of your car
    Horsepower is how fast your car hits the wall
    Torque is how far your car sends the wall across the field once you've hit it

    I've had a similar problem with MMS but only from one person, from anyone else they seem to work fine.

    Do you have the problem for all MMS?

    Have you tried asking someone else to send you one?
    One by one the penguins are slowly stealing my sanity.

    When we had problems with receiving our very first MMS a T-Mobile Nokia a couple of years ago they said we had to SEND an MMS on the phone before we could receive one. (not every time, of course, just the once)

    We did it and it worked. Not sure if it was this configuration though or if its a general thing.

    Might be worth a go.

    Hope this helps.
