MMS iPhone 3G - Telstra

I have completed the 3.0 UPGRADE. Testing the MMS function sent ok.
I was sent an MMS successfully in return.

Later on in the day - the same user sent me several MMS' and the following message was displayed:
"Part of the content of this multimedia message (image name) could not be delivered."

I have changed no settings with the handset or my provider settings.

Why did it receive one MMS message and not work since?
I can send ok - just not receive.

Can anyone help?

Ring Telstra - 125 111. I could send MMS but not receive the pictures from other people including someone on the Telstra network, so I rang Telstra earlier and they told me there were some missing codes within my account. They added them and now I can receive MMS fine.

P.S. My settings were exactly the same as those above and they still are.

I am actually Telstra staff.
I had to wait til I got back to work to check. The settings are almost correct.

it's the last letter of the MMSC address missing - the " u ".

Here are the correct settings and location:

Settings > General >Network > Cellular Data Network

MMS:
APN: telstra.mms
UNSER NAME:
Password:
MMSC: http://mmsc.telstra.com:8002u
MMS PROXY: 010.001.001.180:80
MMS MAX MESSAGE SIZE: 61440
MMS UA PROF URL:

I dont understand how you guys got this information or how you sent MMS. everything I have read says MMS will NOT be ready until late Summer. Also, I dont have the information with the network settings on my phone... How did you get this information?

Well, your lucky..I dont even get the viewmymessage.com option. But My wife has an application called Quip. This app is awesome and it really does send MMS pictures. I know it is only .99 cents but I will wait for the free MMS that will be standard later in the summer..

They can send MMS because they are outside the US. We can also do it right away in Europe. It's AT&T in the US that is delaying the function, not Apple.

Telstra - Australia have a 3G network called Next-G.
It's the fastest 3G Network - data speeds across a mobile network - Guiness book of world records.
http://gocebit.com.au/?q=news/telstra-moves-21mbps-wireless
Telstra is gearing up to go 40.2Mb/s.
(Currently average 21.2Mb/s there of)

The iphone 3G S apparently suports 7.2 Mb/s with Telstra Next-G.

Sweeeeetttt!

MK999 - Yes I can send and receive. If these settings are active and STILL do not work - You may need to call 125111 and ask for WIRELESS DATA TELSTRA MOBILE (Besure to say Telstra Mobile - OR YOU WILL BE TRANSFERRED TO BIGPOND IN SOME CASES). Have them apply all DATA CODES to your mobile account - remove any data barring - if any - and have the Telstra data operator add the MMSCOMB3 code via HELPDESK SYSTEMS. This should ensure all is ok from your operator end.

YORT22 - Yes - sorry - my Keypad did not respond. Were you having troubles receiving MMS too - and adding the U helped?
"614400" is required.

Here are the correct settings and location:

Settings > General >Network > Cellular Data Network

MMS:
APN: telstra.mms
UNSER NAME:
Password:
MMSC: http://mmsc.telstra.com:8002u
MMS PROXY: 010.001.001.180:80
MMS MAX MESSAGE SIZE: 614400
MMS UA PROF URL:

To Test Please write a message - insert a Picture (creating an MMS) and Text to the telephone number:

176667

Telstra will 'auto reply' with an MMS message containing a pic.
If you can view the pic in the message - you are working.
Fore more info on Telstra MMS, Please visit: http;//www.telstra.com.au/mobile/products/messaging/mms.htm

Tech Guy Dre - Yeah - Aus Telstra network settings mentioned. But had you been able to send MMS on your previous phone?? If not - CONTACT YOUR SERVICE PROVIDER TO ENABLE MMS AND OR DATA ON YOUR MOBILE SERVICE.
I hope that helps.
