I have read on other Android sites that its possible to use one APN for both internet & MMS. Unfortunately the one I saw was not Orange.

Anyone got advice for a single multi function APN ? Or advice about how to set up MMS & internet for Orange UK ?

I wouldn't recommend using one APN as that never seemed to work - I've got it all workin by using two different APNs, with the details entered exactly as I'ver written above.

Steve,

Could you mail me those settings please. I have installed the APN controller you requested me to.

I think I have the MMS working for recieving, but don't have it for sending. Are these settings the same, and under the same APN ?

regards,
Paul.

Awesome those APN settings work a charm.

I did have to change 1 thing though on APN type. For OrangeInternet the APN type: default
and OrangeMMS the APN type: mms

Finally got my GPRS and MMS settings to work at the same time thanks to this thread. That last post is crucial in making sure the APN type for MMS reads mms means both APNs can be on at the same time.

Thanks for the help guys.

I spent nearly 6 hours yesterday trying to get my MMS messages to send using Orange using my HTC Hero, looking through all of the sites on-line and all of the many settings that were suggested, from the Orange website itself to ones like this. I finally found the problem! As I was sat in my office at home, I was using my broadband connection via wireless to setup my email, etc and realised that you can’t send (or receive the picture part of) MMS messages over the data network if wireless is enabled!

The phone must be trying to use the wireless network to send the data as it would with other data and only turns to the phone 3G/G+/HSDPA network if no wireless is connected!
