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!
How about this

`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.
And you don't have this settings ?
Thanks I'll try those things, it's just that the prompts and menu options don't match the ATT version exactly.
What's the APN??
