Attaching photos to text messages

My Torch will not send a text with a photograph. It has until just a few days ago. I have tried "rebooting" the phone more than once to no effect. It will send a text without a photograph without issue.
What might have caused the change and how can I fix the problem?

Hi and Welcome to the Community!!
MMS (sometimes called "picture messaging") is, on BlackBerry, a component of your data level services...SMS (true text messages) are part of your voice level services.
Hence, I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
2) Resend Service Books
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) Batt Pull Reboot
With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you contact your mobile service provider (ATT according to your profile here) for formal support...and to be sure that you remain subscribed (from them) to an adequate data plan to enable the services you desire.
Good luck!

    @randers4
    That is exactly what I've been doing.
    I get dozens of photos from a job site every day and it just takes forever.
    I had hoped there was an easier - or at least more direct and simpler way.
    Thanks anyway.

  • How do I sync my photos and text messages from my last iphone (iphone 4) to new iphone?

    Just got the iphone 6. Can someone tell me how to sync my photos, old text messages, and notes from my last phone (iphone 4) to new phone?

    An iTunes sync does not transfer text messages or photos from a phone (it can transfer photos from a computer to a phone). Following is how to transfer from an old phone to a new one using iCloud or iTunes: Transfer content from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device - Apple Support

  • HT1296 How do I pull up photos and texts messages from my old iphone if i dont have it anymore

    How do i pull up old photos and text messages from an iphone I no longer have

    You don't, unless you have a backup of that device. If you have a backup of that device when the photos and messages were on it, then you would need some 3rd party software to examine the bakups.

  • How do I permanently delete photos or text messages?

    How do I permanently delete photos or text messages?

    diesel,
    When I look for an answer to a problem, especially a question that might already be answered, it's because: 1) I need an answer right away, and might not be able to wait a few hours or days for someone to respond, 2) I often don't know if a feature or problem was there from the early iPhones or is brand new, so my first thought is not "that answer is old, therefore irrelevant."
    I know, "read the User's Guide." You sound like Mrs. Suggs, my third grade teacher. If I had taken up someone's time by posting a new question, I get the feeling you would have told me "Don't ask questions there are already answers to." But thank you for your help.

  • Just setting up my iphone 5, and its syncing everything from my previous iphone, except my photos and text messages. Ive been trying to fix this now for about 4-5 hours. Help!!!!!!

    So, I backed up my iphone 4. Set up my iphone 5, pressed sync and it did its job. However, its seems to have synced everything except my photos and text messages. Basically the most things I use on my phone! Ive searched for solutions all over the internet, tried them all and still no luck. this is driving me crazy, been working on it for hours now. someone please help!
    Much appreciated

    You do not sync text messages.
    Did you restore the iPhone 5 from a backup of your old phone?
    If not, do so to put everything back.  This is assuming you want/need you sms messages.
    Pictures should already be on the computer, then they can be synced to the device.

    Also MMS is supported on a carrier by carrier basis. While mostly every carrier does support ths feature make sure that your carrier allows this functionality.

  • I cant receive photos with text messages on my iphone 4s

    I cant receive photos with text messages on my iphone 4s. Do I need to change a setting on the phone?

    If you scroll up and don't see that button, then there are no more messages to see.
    Here's a sample image I found on Google that shows the button.

  • Cannot receive photos via text messaging, says too big to receive

    I can receive photos via blue tooth but when anybody sends photos via text it does not arrive or I am told that the image is too big.

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting the issue here and providing more information. I did some research on the carrier and this is what I found about sending a receiving messages.
    Please call your service provider to find out if there are any limitations on attachment sized for your phone plan.
    I tried looking up to verify how to manually set up email for the email app for your phone, but was not sure what model you had: please check here for troubleshooting info [http://www.vodafone.com.au/help/devices/ota-settings] if the email is already set up, please ignore.

    PXT®/MMS settings [http://support.vodafone.com.au/articles/FAQ/PXT-MMS-settings]
    If this continues after any optimizing changes the service provider recommends:
    *Are there download settings set in the email menu
    *What is the size of the attachment when this happens?
    *Is it a specific file type this consistently happens?
    *what kind of email account does this happen with, and is it consistent for other emails as well? If so it may be the apn settings.
    If you are unable to access the images from the account with Vodafone, it may be the following bugs that is affecting this.

    *Does it happen with pdfs? [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=825318]
    *Does is happen when there is no message?
    *Does it happen when it is too large and is there a message? [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=949972]
