Need MMS settings for W580i. Please HELP!

SteveNV — Thu, 30 Apr 2015 23:02:34 GMT

My old AT&T W580i broke so I replaced it with a generic unlocked W580i. But I cannot figure how to set it up to receive MMS Picture Messages on AT&T. Tech support at AT&T couldn't help since the setting menu options & prompts are different that the AT&T branded version, so the information didn't match the prompts I see.

Can anyone help me with this? I just need the correct entries for MMS Picture Message and Internet Profile Settings etc for AT&T.

Thanks!

`Thank you! However, there are some prompts for which I don't know the answer -- to start (there may be more later) --

Under Settings, Data comm, Data Accounts and in SMS Access, it asks for PS or CS (packet or circuit switched, i guess).

Then Data Accounts prompts me to enter APN, Username & Password

Under Internet Settings, New Profile, it prompts for Name and Connect Using:

(There's also a Jave Profile settings option)

Under Messaging - Settings - Text Messages, there's a Service Center number, then Email Gateway is Not Set

Under Messaging - Settings - PICTURE Messages, MMS Profile, New Profile, it prompts for MMS Profile Name, Message Server, and Internet Profile.

The default profiles are named 4 boxes + (GPRS) and locked so I can't edit. (The new phone came from Hong Kong but I was told it would work with ATT).

Pardon my ingorance but I've never had to set this up before. Thanks again.

Thanks I'll try those things, it's just that the prompts and menu options don't match the ATT version exactly.
