Unlocked bb curve 9300 , can't send or receive pictures

I bought an unlocked at&t bb curve 9300. At&t, Verizon doesn't work where I live, (northeast USA) I was told by my local wireless company that I could use my sim card with any at&t , or tmobile phone, as long as it was GSM, unlocked. My friend has a bb curve and I really liked it, so looked at one and it was GSM and At&T, unlocked, put my sim card in and I can call , I can text, my wifi works, but I can't send or receive pics or use the 3G. I took it to my local wireless company who then said "oh a bb, I don't know if I can make it work" After they had it for over and hour, came back and told me " no luck"
Is there anyone out there that may be able to help me or is it a hopeless cause? I really like this phone.
Thanks!

Wind doesn't offer the Z10 so you obviously brought an unlocked phone to their network. Unfortunately, the carrier (Wind in this case) controls APN settings so the ball is in their court. Keep in mind that just because a phone works on a carrier's network doesn't mean that every feature will be perfect. Since Wind doesn't support the Z10, you're on your own.
I hope that answers your question.

  • I just got an IPhone 5C and I can't send or receive pictures on it.

    Does anybody know how to fix this? I have MMS turned on, but still can't send or receive pictures on my phone.

    Check with your carrier to make sure your service with them is correctly provisioned

  • Can't send or receive pictures on iphone 5/ sprint, please help!

    Was on the phone for over 3 hours last night with Apple and Sprint and I'm beyond frustrated.  I just started using my iPhone 5 on the Sprint network a few days ago.  I did the 6.0.2 update.  I can't send or recieve picture messages!  Regular text messages are fine.  Everything else on phone works great.  I've went thru the whole trouble shooting routine on Apple's end w/ a senior advisor and have restored my iphone twice..it doesn't help. 
    Sprint said it has nothing to do with my plan and they said that my coverage here is fine. 
    Has anyone else had this problem?  Was it a problem on Sprint or Apple's end?  Could the 6.0.2 update have caused this?  Could this possibly be a defective phone?  Please help!!

    ok finally got the problem solved.  Hopefully this will help other people experiencing this problem. 
    First, go Settings, then select Phone.  Under "My number" it should say your current number.  If it doesn't (as it didn't in my case) call sprint (dial *2 on your phone).  Tell the sprint agent you would like your Name assigned to your number. 
    In my case, I had been added to an existing family plan.  I was assigned a random new cell phone number, but then later changed it to my old existing phone number from AT&T.  So if you are like me and brought your old cell phone number with you when you switched to Sprint, then this may be the issue. 
    When I was experiencing the problem with my pictures not sending, the wrong phone number was showing as my number on the phone (even though people could call and text me using my current number). 

  • I Can't Send Or Receive Pictures On My Phone.

    I cannot send or receive pictures on my phone. I do not have internet on my phone but I never did and didn't have this problem until now. Someone please help me ASAP! (:

    pictures = data = needing a data plan.
    BlackBerrys require the BlackBerry Data Plan for data, such as MMS messages.
    On Tmobile, you might call them and see if the Tmobile BlackBerry "Feature Enabler" will enable MMS picture messaging. I don't recall if it will, but they will know.

    Are you using the phone on a supported carrier? Have you checked with your carrier to make sure that your account is properly provisioned? Have you turned on MMS in Settings>Messages? What happens when you try to send?

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!!
    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) Delete and Resend Service Books
    KB05000Delete the service book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account from the BlackBerry smartphone
    If you have no CMIME entry, then skip the deletion
    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 should contact your mobile service provider for formal support.
    Good luck!

  • Blackberry Curve 9300 won't send or receive BBM messages

    Hi
    I have a blackberry 9300 and it won't send or receive any BBM messages for some of my contacts. When I send a message it shows the tick without a "D" or "R" over it and I can't receive messages from some of my contacts. They also can't see any updates I do like status update, display picture update, etc. My BIS is activate because I can go onto the internet and I can use Whatsapp, the problem is only with BBM. I have tried deleting and sending service books but it hasn't worked. I also deleting my contacts and re-invitign them again but that also doesn't work. My last resort was deleting BBM and downloading it again, it also didn't work.
    PLEASE HELP!!!! 
    Be Afraid! Be Very Afraid!

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    SMS is a purely voice-level service provided by the mobile service provider, and not technically a component of the BB-level services. Hence, you need to work with your formal support from your mobile service provider to resolve this. If you are paying them for SMS services and they are not delivering them, then they need to resolve that. If they need enhanced assistance, they can formally escalate to BlackBerry for that...but you cannot.
    Good luck!

  • I can not send or receive pictures from non iphone devices

    I have tried to send pictures to my boyfriends phone (he doesnt have an Iphone) and they wont complete the sending process. I have unlimited messaging with picture messaging as well so I know its not my provider. The cellular data option is on. My MMS and SMS options are on. I also can not receive the pictures he tries to send me. Can someone please help me figure out why this is happening and how I can fix it?

        That's definitely strange, bigbadscharfy. We're here to help get all texts coming and going. Let's start w/ the basics! Have you checked under Settings>Messages> Is Send as SMS checked on? This can help send out messages as regular texts and not iMessages. Do you receive any error messages when the texts dont go out or receive?

    There is no iOS 7.3.  The latest version is 7.0.4.
    "can't send" - What exactly happens when you try?
    "via text" - Do you mean MMS or iMessage?
    Settings > Messages > MMS Messaging > ON?
    Settings > MEssages  > iMessage > ON?

  • Ever since I updated my software, I can't send or receive pictures from people who don't have iphones

  • Can't send or receive pictures. Says they are unav...

    I have tried every solution I can find on here and nothing is working to fix my problem. Skype is up to date Internet explorer is up to date also. I need this feature. It is very frustrating to have to go to somewhere else to share my pictures. Please find a solution or go back to old skype where I could send pictures just fine!!!!!

    Try to reset all Internet Explorer settings:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737
    Next reset LAN settings:
    Open Internet Explorer. Go to Tools -> Internet Options -> Connections -> LAN settings. Make sure that the only option selected is “Automatically detect settings”.
    Next clear all Temporary Internet Files:
    Open Internet Explorer -> Tools -> Internet Options -> General. In the section “Browsing history” press the “Settings” button and in the next window the “View files” button. Delete all files from the Temporary Internet Files folder.
