Test MMS Picture Messages
Once you have entered and saved your MMS settings, you can test MMS picture messages. Test both sending and receiving picture messages, as sometimes Straight Talk Wireless customers tell me they have problems either sending or receiving MMS. Make sure your
picture messages are sent and received using MMS and not some other service.
- Tap Home
- Tap Hangouts
- Tap Add
- Enter a Name or Phone Number
NOTE: I edited these screenshots to remove my phone number.
- Tap Camera
- Chose Attach Photo
- Select a Photo
- Add a descriptive text message.
Look carefully at the screen and check that your message will be sent as an MMS.
- Tap Send
- Wait for a Response
- Verify
Make sure the picture you sent was received and that you can view the picture you received back.
If You Can’t Send or Receive a Picture Message
If you are unable to send the MMS. Go back to the APN settings and make sure you entered the values correctly. If you made an error, correct it, and retest. If you entered the values correctly, but MMS did not work, repeat the steps trying the alternative values that match your APN.
If you try all the values, but your MMS still does not work, leave a comment on this guide and I will try to help you.
