Cannot send an MMS with Samsung Galaxy III

Highly frustrating.
I have turned on mobile data, turned on wi-fi, restarted it and it still doesn't want to send. The send circle just keeps going around and around, for hours! I have 2GB worth of data so it shouldn't be a problem. Can anyone tell me how to make it work because I really have no desire to drive up to Verizon, don't have the time. The phone is less than a week old. >.<

No luck..>.<
Perhaps I was doing it wrong. I took out the battery and held down the power button for 10 seconds. Then figuring I read it wrong, I took out the battery, let it sit for 30 seconds, put it back in and held the power button. Just powered on like usual. I really want to be able to send picture messages...>.<

  • Cannot send texts on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 in 713 and surrounding area codes (or anywhere)  Any ideas?

    Cannot send texts on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 in 713 and surrounding area codes (or anywhere that I know of).  Is anyone else familiar with this issue.  I receive texts just fine.  I have tried an alternate texting app and rebooting the phone and I have checked my account online to make sure now safeguards have blocked texting or anything else.
    It just keeps trying to send for a while and then comes back failed.  Everytime any number I try.  But I can receive texts.
    Thanks in advance for any ideas :/

        Hi EmotionOrDie,
    The Galaxy Note 3 is a fantastic device! I'm sure you're eager to use the device to the fullest of its abilities. Has this been an issue since you first received the device? Just to ensure that were on the same page, the 713 area code is the Houston, TX area?
    I would suggest clear all text threads that are currently on the phone. Once the text threads have removed head into Settings > Apps > Manage Apps > All > Messaging > Clear Data then test.

  • Cannot Send Message: MMS Messaging needs to be enabled to send an email address

    ERROR: iPhone 5 "Cannot Send Message: MMS Messaging needs to be enabled to send to an email address."
    DESCRIPTION: When attempting to use my new iPhone 5 (unlocked on T-Mobile) to text to a new iPod email address (on a home WiFi to a Hotmail account), I get the above error message.  I am able to send and receive text messages (SMS) to mobile phone numbers.  I have iMessage enabled and am using iOS 6.0.2.  What is the fix?  Thanks.
    REQUEST:  Apple please produce an iPhone with a five inch screen in order to compete successfully with Samsung.

  • Samsung Galaxy III software update.

    My phone is asking me to update the Samsung Galaxy III for software updates. Should I do this or is it a spam?

    After the update, I spent an hour an hour or two setting all my ringtones back to the way they were before the update, turning my notification tones back on, turning off the camera flash when my phone rings, etc.  What a pain that was.  But my bluetooth was still flaky.
    So after researching the forums, I found this "quick and easy" solution which seemed to have worked:
    TrumpetWarrior Jan 8, 2014 2:27 PM (in response to Incredible-vzw)
    OK, I fixed mine, and thought I would post to everyone interested.
    I have a Samsung GS3, and got the update 2 days ago. The update reset several things I didn't notice before, like I had to download and install swift key, and some other apps, but nevertheless, this is what I did.
    On the GS3 Phone:
    1) Settings > About Phone > Device Name and changed the name of my phone back to the name I like to use. This will show up on the car (Sync) as the BT device. My wife and I have the same phone and cannot tell the difference if they are both the same name. The update had changed it back to the default name.
    2) Settings > Bluetooth , While the BT is turned on, click on the Sync setting icon on the right and pick Un-pair the sync device,
    3) Turn off BT, and go under Settings > Application Manager. Scroll to the right until you get to "All". Scroll down til you see Bluetooth Share. Force stop, Clear cache and Clear Data.
    4) Shut your phone down, and take the battery out.
    On the Car: I have a Ford Escape 2014 with Sync.
    Basically, you will have to do a factory reset, but on mine, it didn't hurt or lose anything.
    1) Mine was under Settings > System > Factory Reset (May take 5 mins)
    2) Put your phone battery back in and boot up your phone and turn on bluetooth
    3) Once the Ford Sync has booted up, add the device and just follow the instructions on the screen and pair the phone back up. Your phone may prompt you for access to your contacts and to download your contacts. Be sure to click the don't show again and click OK
    Mine works even better than before!! Text messages are coming in again, and the Bluetooth media stereo is working again too. Pandora is awesome over Bluetooth.
    On the Ford Sync, the only thing I had to set back was the Voice command under settings (I like the advanced option so she does not repeat everything I say) , and under the phone settings for my GS3, I turn on 911, and I set the ring tone to text to speech. I like it to announce who is calling rather than the ringer. And that is it!
    You might could get away with less steps, but this is what I did and it was minimal. Better than trying to factory rest your phone or something.
    Good Luck!

  • Cannot send any message with my N95

    I cannot send any message with my nokia n95 phone. It says "Memory full. Close some programs and try again" where in fact, and I'm very much sure that there's no any program running.
    What memory is referred here? What's happening to my phone? What should I do then? I've been restoring my phone's factory settings since the problem occured yet the problem is still there. Please help me with it's been quite a long time since this problem started to annoy me. Thank you.

    I am having this exact same issue with my N82. Very frustrating. Only way to send a message is via MMS. Also I am not receiving all the messages people are sending me. Are others having this issue as well?

  • I am trying to send mass MMS with an image

    Does anyone know of a way or an App that will allow me to send mass MMS with images and allow me to create groups. For Iphone 4s.
    I have over 2000 contacts, and i can't seem to find an App for group messaging capable of adding images.
    Any help is greatly appreciate it.

    Use a utility such as Graphic Converter to  change the image to a jpeg using options to reduce the size of the converted image.

  • Does Samsung Galaxy III phones recognized WiFi that does not broadcast SSID?

    I recently purchased Samsung Galaxy III phone.  At home, I turned on WiFi SSID broadcast on the router to set up phone to connect to router.  I then turned off SSID broadcast on router, and phone no longer connects to WiFi.  I understand security is better when SSID is not broadcasting, but this phone will not connect now.  Apple products connects just fine.  Why will the phone not connect to a router that does not broadcast SSID event when the information is programmed into the phone?

  • CANNOT send SMS messages with ADDRESS BOOK on POWERBOOK using iPHONE

    I cannot send SMS messages with my address book or dial phone numbers using my Powerbook via the iPHONE.
    Previously, with my Sony Ericson phone, I could do both. It's very useful, when you are at your laptop, to use your computer keyboard to send SMS text messages back and forth rather than using the clumsy small keys on a phone.
    Can someone help?
    Is there something I am missing?

    You are not missing something here and no one here can help you. This is not an included Bluetooth profile with the iPhone at the present time anyway.
    If you purchased your iPhone within the last 14 days, you can return it for credit less a 10% restocking fee and if not, here is Apple's feedback link for the iPhone.

  • Cannot send a text with a photo + poor battery life = RETURN IPHONE!

    I am having so many issues with my iPhone 5 that I think I may just return it. I think that this has been the WORST product launch by Apple EVER! I cannot send a picture with a text message, I cannot send a group text and the battery life is HORRIBLE.
    Anyone else agree or have the same problems?

    Not the ones you described. I can send pictures and do group messaging, but the iPhone requires data access to do that. Is there possibly a provision error on your iPhone? And do you have an Exchange email account on your iPhone?
