Hey,

I have had my xperia arc for just under a week now. When I first got it it was fine and was sending MMS messages no problem. But today for some reason it stopped. Whenever I try to send something I just get the 'sending' icon hovering over the image, I did a test and this lasted for at least 10 minuets before I gave up. I haven't done anything to the settings, nor have I changed the wireless networks. My signal is fine and I can sent text messages no problem. I am with T-Mobile and I have checked the APN settings more than three times and it all matches. I have also checked memory space and I have more than enough. The image does not say it is protected and I have tryed sending downloaded images and my own pictures but nothing seems able to get through.

I'm really struggling to work out what is wrong as like I said, it was working fine yesterday and text messages are working fine today. I would appreciate any and all help. Thank you x

I'd have a chat with T-Mobile, if I were you, as it sounds more like an issue with the

network rather than the phone.

I assume you still have a data connection? You need an active data connection to

send MMS messages, although I used to be with TM UK, and their data network

was always a little....iffy

I agree it might be the network, few things you can do

test your SIM card on another phone if it works with other phones then a factory reset could solve the issue

make sure you backup everythig beforehand
