Hi all,

I have an Xperia ion Lt28 and it isn't sending or receiving MMS messages. It was purchased new and un-branded so it was all clear to begin with. I've done everything with my network provider as far as settings goes and also checked the sim in my previous Aino and it worked fine so it has to be something with this ion handset that's NQR or something software wise...can anyone here help?

get a brane NEW MICRO sim card, you probably trimmed the SIM card, believe it or not that will create issues, also if you have an antivirus, taskillers, task managers, battery apps, uninstall them, you do not need them, remember that your data MUST be enabled.

Thanks uliwooly but it is a new micro sim and this issue was there from the start before i installed any apps. Not that i have many either...just 'Auto Memory' from iolo technologies.

So, doesn't look like i'm going to get an answer on here...what's my next step?

auto memory its a taskiller

repair your phone with SUS > do NOT install any app just try to send and/or receive mms

I had a similar issue and the problem was on the APN settings, my carrier kept sending me the APN OTA but there was an issue/error

on Authentication type and Bearer

I thought it was an old SIM card as you were using it with your Aino, also the apn settings that work for your aino might not work with your android phone.

Thanks, will give this a go when i get a moment.
I just tested the sim on my Aino to see if it worked and just pushing it in part of the way is enough apparently
