    I am stumped,my Cousin has VZW and the only way I can view her MMS texts is if I forward the text back to myself. She claims it is only me and her other AT&T friends have no problem,any ideas?

    That does not sound right. I have never had problems for ATT people to view things from me and like wise. I think there may be a problem with your settings.

    Thanks Ryan, I checked my settings but don't know where to start. This is something new, I should have added that the problem with her is new.

    HUH well I guess another thing to do is try to have someone else on Verizon send you a test MMS. If you want me to help you on this one send me a PM and we can try it.

    There may be something wrong with your mms settings on your phone, trying doing a power cycle or a master reset on the phone. that may help or you can call AT&T and have them help you reset your media net settings.

    Joe, don't you ever have easy questions? :)

    This sounds strange to me. For forwarding the phone usually has to load the message, so I would expect it to be able to show you the message even without/before forwarding. What do you see when you try to view the MMS she send you? Do you have the same problem with anyone else?

    If the reply above seems familiar, it's because it's a cut & paste from CF :)

    I have discovered it is the phone, the MMS comes up as a blank white screen. I swapped sims and tried my SE and for some reason I don't have a problem with that phone.

    It is also good I am getting a replacement from warranty exchange, it seems when I get an incoming call I cannot hear the person on the other end. The only thing that concerns me is I am getting a refurb so I hope it works out. Thanks again for your help Ryan.:)

    Joe, I am glad you are getting a replacement. Please post if the refurb was to your satisfaction and if it took care of the problems.

    PS: I presume you are getting the same CRAPPY SAMY again? :p

    Glad to hear you resolved it!

    Yes Charlyee I am getting another crappy Sammy:D, I just got the refurb and until I get an MMS from VZW I will know. Also when I get an incoming call I will see if that problem is fixed as well. Thanks Charlyee and don't be fresh!:p;)

    Well incoming calls are fine and very clear, MMS with VZW continues to be a problem. AT&T and Sprint are fine so I may just live with the problem.
