Can't download a picture from a text message. - Android Forums

you need to have a data plan to send and receive sms messages

Hi there Maddy,

Just like a message alert pop up, when you receive a picture message on your Nokia phone, it will show you "1 Picture Message Received" on your phone's screen as it beeps.

Friend,go to your network provider then ask them to let your GPRS be open so that you can receive picture messages.

The problem is that supposedly before you can receive picture messages, you have to send one first. Tell a friend that you are going to test it out on them and send them a picture message. It will take a while for it to go through
Then all the texts that you receive before with the "download' button in them in the place of a picture automatically turn into pictures.
Unfortunately as it stands there is no functionality for saving your MMS pictures directly onto your phone, the only way it can be done is you have to forward the message to your Gmail account, which will then arrive on your phone and from there you should be able to open the email and download the picture. To do so follow these steps
From the Home screen, touch the Applications button.
Touch Messaging.
Touch the message that contains the picture or video.
Press and hold in an empty space in the message.
Touch Forward.
Type a space or other character in the forwarded message (in subject or body of message)
At To, type the e-mail address.
Press the Menu key and touch Send.
Once received in the email this can be saved but the problem is when saved it may save it without a file extension therefore making it unviewable later
This should help and do let me know

Did you have service for Receiving MMS service.
If you didn't have then call to your cell customer care center request then to on MMS service for receiving picture messages.
They will guide you further.

If I can guide you further then reply to this thread.

Thanks

cantact your network provider and ask for a sim update and a gprs install message this will solve the problem

hi
most networks want you to send a picture message before you can receive them, i know t-mobile and virgin both require you to send before you can receive picture messages.

could be the same on your network

hope that helps

Sounds like you will need to contact your Service provider to add the Pic message feature to your account.
