Problem sending pic messages

[Bluestone]

I am trying to send a picture message, but it just says "incorrect server" and then comes up as "failed".
I don't appear to be receiving them either.

I'm with the dreaded 'Three', so thought I'd ask on here, before calling them for assistance.

Phone is Samsung Galaxy.

Here's a thread with exactly the same problem on a very similar phone, with a link suggesting how to fix it:

Right. I'm going to try it for a third time. If it still doesn't work, I'm going to throw it at the wall!

if I respond to your text, you'll know it worked.... :-)

Ah... :-)

[Bluestone]

Nope. No good. Still says "failed".

For Funks Sake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks anyway.

I think the only thing left to do is to call 3 and ask for their help...

Try to turn off the wifi if it is on then try to send the pic message.
Try these when you hold down the off button of mobile you will see a screen that says: silent mode, mobile data connection, flight mode, and power off, make sure that the mobile data connection is turned on. This may help.
Or try these steps to follow to start receiving pictures. Open “Messages”, next open “Settings”, you will need to scroll down to “MMS Settings” and disable the “Auto Receive” by selecting disable next to this feature. The last step is to open an MMS message and click “Download”.

Thanks Johny, but that didn't work either. I rang Three, who were useless.
I ended up shouting at the man on the phone and telling him to cancel my contract as they were more than useless. I can never even get a signal on the damn thing!
I've snapped the sim in half, I was that frustrated. Grrrr.
