MMS Picture settings etc Lumia 800

Hi All,
Lumia 800, I have got the internet working on it fine through APN but I cannot find anywhere the MMS settings to receive picture messages or send them.
Everytime I send a picture message I get a message saying cannot send or if someone sends me a picture message, I get a little message saying view content - I click it and nothing happens.
I hate this phone so much, Why have a phone if you cannot even use it for what's suppose to do?!
Never buying a Nokia again hate them so much!
If anybody could please help me that would be great
Thanks

Virgin Mobile
MMS settings for Nokia Lumia
Here is what I did:
Download the Network Setup tool for the Lumia 800 (I suspect it is also available for the 610/710/900).
Ran the tool, selected Virgin as the Operator
Pressed the "+" at the bottom to select "add apn"
Entered the following details
Connection name: Virgin2
Under Internet APN, Access point name: goto.virginmobile.uk
Proxy address: 193.30.166.4
Proxy port: 8080
Username: user
Password: (I left this blank)
Under MMS APN, MMS access point name: goto.virginmobile.uk
Proxy address: 193.30.166.2
Proxy port: 8080
Username: user
Password: (I left this blank)
MMSC address: http://mms.virginmobile.co.uk:8002
Save
Select Virgin2 as settings option
I still found it was not working and upon ringing Virgin they told me my SIM was not yet MMS enabled. To do this, they told me to send a picture to myself. You will only need to do this if your SIM is brand new and you have never sent a picture message before from this number.

Zune & Lumia 800

Everything was working as it should be until recently when i did a factory reset on my Lumia 800 due to the "unable to receive MMS error"
Now, my Lumia 800 cannot sync wireless despite the fact it's on charger for more than 10minutes on full charge. Neither my Zune starts automatically whenever it's plugged in through the USB (i have the auto startup function ticked).
Any idea how to fix this?
It's getting really irritating because i don't know what's wrong and i cannot fix it.
Advice?!

Lumia 800 MMS Settings

Hi, I have never been able to send or receive pictures since I bought this phone. I am with T-Mobile and they have said that the settings should be automatically applied when I first send a picture. They have also re-sent me the settings which I accepted and it still doesn't work. They have said it is an issue with the phone. From previous posts here I have tried both the Diagnostics app and the Network Setup app, neither of which seem to do anything. Can anyone help here?

Ok. Finally this week ( Aug.1st 2012) Nokia released the Network Setup application that helped me to configure my MMS for AT&T on Unlocked Lumia 800.
Here is what all Lumia 800 unlocked users should do to get MMS working with AT&T:
1- Download Network Setup app from Market Place
2- Run it and manually ADD a new connection. I gave it a name like “ATTMMS”
3- Define this info in the window provided:
a. Internet APN: wap.cingular
b. Leave other fields blank on internet settings.
c. MMS APN: wap.cingular
d. Proxy address: wireless.cingular.com
e. Proxy port: 80
f. MMSC address: http://mmsc.cingular.com
g. Leave other fields blank
4- Now select this new connection as Operator by tapping on it’s name and that’s it!
5- On phone setting, Cellular setting, same wap.cingular APN need to be added too and Data connection should be ON!
Good luck with this!

@oldairbear
The solution is using Network Setup an application which was pulled from Marketplace due to security issues:

MMS Video missing on the Lumia 800

I have not found any ways to send short videos via MMS from the Lumia 800. The MMS send functionality seem to be limited to pictures.
The old Nokia N95 had this beautiful functionality that it somehow compressed HD videos, so you could send them within the MMS size limit. This functionality were removed on the later Nokia Symbian phones, but it was still possible to send videos if you recorded them with low quality.

You can recieve them you can't send them yet. This functionality is being introduced in Tango whis is imminent.

Lumia 800 - Downloading pictures to a PC?

Ok stating to get used to my Lumia 800, its good points its bad points and its dam annoying points.
One for today, how can I easily and quickly down load pictures to my PC? I dont want to load my personal photos to Sky Drive but I can see this is the only way to do it.
So I have done that and come across the following problems.
1. There is no multiple select option in the Lumia's cameroll thing so you have to action any delete/share individually a real pain!!
2. So after faffing all photos were loaded in to Sky Drive. I've now been waiting some 30 minutes or so for the photos to download off Sky Drive on to my PC.
SUrely this can not be the easiest way to do it. My old HTC Desire would take a max of 5 mins to download many more pictures and videos...
Any advice? Ta

Easiest way is to either sync or drag and drop using Zune on your pc. You can also set up a wifi sync at home, and in your photo application on the phone for camera roll you can set to auto upload ( press the three dots on the bottom right hand corner. Best solution is to sync with zune in my opinion !

Facebook Privacy Settings Lumia 800

Since last week, all messages posted from my Lumia 800 to Facebook have been posted with the 'Only Me' privacy setting. Previously I was able to post no problem with the Privacy set as 'Public'.
As far as I can see there are no options on the phone for privacy settings, and others that I know using Lumia phones have no problems sending messages to Facebook.
Does anyone know what could be causing this, and what the solution would be. I am posting messages from the 'Me Tile' and not from a Facebook app, though if I post from a Facebook app I have the same problem.
Thanks to anyone who can help

HI ronnikke,
Welcome to Nokia Forum!
I have encountered this one wherein all my post created under Hotmail are set to "Only Me". You can try to check these settings and see if it will make any difference:
Go to Hotmail>Sign in your account>Under Messenger Social>Click on Add>Manage services
You will have a list of linked accounts to your Microsoft account. Under Facebook, click on Edit and put a check mark to "Share to Facebook".

Lumia 800 - Bulk upload of Pictures to SKydrive

Hi,
I have Lumia 800. i have lots of pictures which i had downloaded via internet. so if i start to use MS Zune, i think all the pictures will be erased...
so to avoid this, i want to do an autoupload or Bulk upload to my Skydrive. Please let me know the solution.
Many Thanks

There are third party Skydrive apps in the Microsoft Marketplace that you can download and use to upload pictures in bulk. You can access that via the Store app on the phone itself.

Lumia 800 Roaming settings

Can anyone advise the best settings for roaming on the Lumia 800, I need to keep the emails coming in and incoming phone calls only, so cannot put it into flight mode, but want to stop anything else from updating/checking and using my roaming data allowance? For example, do I need to shut down apps that are running, or shut off bluetooth and locations? Just trying to avoid massive data costs like you hear some iphone users are getting becuae their phones are updating and checking stuff all the time. Thanks for any advice.
Solved!

Go to email+accounts and check services like Google and Live - in there select only mail to be synced.
Bad thing is that if you have Facebook account there's no way to disable it. Either delete it (if you have no linked contacts, since they will be lost) or make sure to not touch What's new in People or Me tiles.
Ericsson T10i -> Nokia 7110 -> Siemens C45, C55, M55, M65 -> Nokia 6131, N73, N82 -> HTC Wildfire, Desire HD -> Nokia Lumia 800 -> HTC Desire X -> Lumia 820 -> Sony Xperia SP -> Lumia 925 + Sennheiser CX 500

My computer was not working properly last week. Now the computer starts, but it appears like its all factory settings. How do I restore so I can read my email, see my pictures, itunes etc....?

How do I restore my personal items such as iTunes, my pictures, email etc...? The computer was acting up last week, and now everything looks like factory settings.

Hello, first thing to do is in the Finder, double click on your hard drive's icon, see how many users are in the Users folder, sounds like your Home folder was possibly renamed.

Multiple email accounts on Lumia 800

Dear All
I have a question about email accounts on the Lumia 800.
I have two email accounts, one linked to our website (pop 3) and also my personal Live account. The account linked to the website can only receive (it costs more and thus was deemed unnecessary). This system has worked well in the past, just reply or forward using my Live account. This has worked on my pc, laptop, Iphone etc.
Now the question, how do I choose which account sends on the Lumia? As I can’t seem to select between the two, I currently have no means of replying to or forwarding mail received in the ‘website’ account. I have tried messing around with settings in both accounts, but to no avail.
Apologies in advance if I’m just being an idiot but any help would be appreciated.

What I notice is after 3 hours (approx) of disconnecting the phone from charging socket battery is reduced a bit I do not know how to measure the battery remaining etc , are these apps the reason for drain out of battery quickly if yes then how do I disable them for a few hours and re activate back again.
Or I need some thing else to do to save battery?

To cut the long story short.. Refer THIS and THIS
There are a lot of applications available at the MarketPlace which will give you the remaining battery time..but keep in mind that these values are calculated based on the immediate use and are just indicative. (e.g. immediately after playing a game which is draining the battery at a fast rate the battery may show 5 hrs. remaining..but after that you don't use the phone for a long time and the remaining battery may show as 12 hrs..)

Lumia 800: IE and XBL crashing.

So, recently my Lumia 800 had a battery issue. It wouldn't start or charge. Also the flash of the camera had always been broken, it just didn't flash. So I took it to a local service, and they fixed it. Now, when I got it back, everytime I try to enter a website with ANY browser, it just shuts down the browser. Also, when it asks about sending your surf history to Microsoft (first time browser startup), that screen only shows for a second and then crashes.
Now, after a day of using my phone, also the Xbox Live crashes. I can't even open it. It does the start animation when I click the icon, but instantly shows the closing animation. And it came just suddenly, I played some games 15 minutes backwards and then I try again - crash.
Oh and they updated it to the newest version in the service!
Any help before I have to take it to service again? Don't want to do another week with a no-3G phone.

Hi bacon800,
Thank you for your post and welcome to the forums!
We're sorry to hear about your problems. The crashes you are experiencing may be caused a failed installation of the update. What you can try to do is to reset the phone. It will wipe all data off your phone, so make sure to backup all the pictures, music etc. you would like to save. To reset your phone go to Settings > about > reset your phone, it will restore your phone back to the "out of the box" state.
If this does not solve the issue, we would advise you to take the phone back to the service and let them have a look.
Let us know if this helps,
Puigchild

How to share video via Bluetooth from Lumia 800?

Unable to share videos via bluetooth from Lumia 800.. Plzz Nokia! Hear me!! Solve it as fast as you can! And if anyone can then plz tell me!

Hi. If your device is running the latest software and you have the Bluetooth Share app, sending/sharing of videos via Bluetooth is still not supported. With the Bluetooth Share app, you can only receive video fies (WMV/MP4).
If you wish to transfer/share videos to other devices, below are the other methods.
You can share videos directly from the phone through MMS, email or online sharing services such as Facebook and Skydrive.
Videos stored in the Camera Roll can be attached to an MMS message. To attach a video to MMS:
From Start, tap Messaging.
Tap (+) to create a new message, or tap an existing message thread to open the compose card.
Tap the attach button. Tap picture or video.
Choose a video from the albums to select a video.
Under the inserted video, tap on the type a message text. Enter any annotations desired, or tap attach to add another item.
Tap-and-hold on any item in the compose card to bring up the option to remove.
Note: A content delivery over MMS vary depending on the network setup, carriers, mobile data subscription, video transcoding, resolution and length.
Tip: With the free Play To application for Nokia Lumia phones you can show pictures and videos wirelessly on other DLNA capable devices (TV’s, BlueRay players, Mediaplayer in Windows 7, etc…) connected to their network.

Issues on the Lumia 800 with "WIFI" and "Mobile ne...

I keep my Lumia 800 on 2G/E at all times usually to conserve battery life, and because i'm at work with a wifi connection all day..occasionally when i go out i like to turn on the 3G and use the map functions etc.
The problem occurs after a while that i notice the 3G draining my battery quite quickly, so i decide i want to turn off the 3G, i go to the "Mobile network" entry under "settings" and when i tap it, nothing happens at all, i also notice my WIFI is turned off, so i tap the "WIFI" entry, and again nothing happens!
So, to solve this problem i have to turn the phone off...but then it takes maybe 10 mins or so till i can turn it back on, it will not turn on straight away!! I have to either wait ten mins or keep pressing the power button and holding it down untilt he phone eventually vibrates to tell me its turning on..whats going on??
If anyone can shed some light on this matter i'd be very grateful!

This is still happening, can anyone shed some light on this?
