This may be a stupid question.

I tried to send a picture using SMS to someone last night, and it wouldn't send.

Just kept coming back with "Generic Network Failure".

I also couldn't receive any picture messages.


Any ideas anyone?

TIA

Does anyone have any ideas on this?

What are your APN settings?

Settings / Wireless / Mobile Networks / Access Point Names

Not very long ago, I noticed that I couldn't send/receive MMS either. I tried contacting O2 with no success (still waiting a response over a month now! lol).

Anyway, I sorted it and it's probably your APN settings too.

Try these:

Name: O2 Pay Monthly MMS
APN: wap.o2.co.uk
Proxy: 192.113.200.195
Port: 8080
Username: o2wap
Password: [password]
Server: <not set>
MMSC: http://mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
MMS Proxy: 192.113.200.195
MMS Port: 8080
MMS Protocol: WAP 2.0
MCC: 234
MNC: 10
Authentication type: none
APN Type: <not set>

It worked for mine, at least. If it doesn't work for you, try a google search as there are other very similar settings out there they may work.

Great, thanks - at least I know what to search for now!

Damn, beat me to it

Here's all the O2 settings for the HTC Desire....think you can get the setting sent to your phone from this page if you can't be bothered manually entering them.

It might be a provider issue. I was having the same problem at the weekend (O2 also), I did nothing at all and the next morning it was all working again.
