If you do not use communication services for more than 90 calendar days in a row on tariffs for calls and for more than 180 calendar days in a row on tariffs for the Internet, the subscription fee for keeping the number starts to be charged daily.

      In case of non-use of communication services for any of the subscriber numbers combined on one personal account for more than 90 (ninety) calendar days in a row, the contract for the provision of communication services regarding this subscriber number is considered terminated at the initiative of the subscriber.

      The amount of the subscription fee for keeping the number, the conditions for its debiting and the period at the end of which the contract for the provision of communication services will be terminated and the number can be transferred to another subscriber, is indicated in the description of your tariff. You can find it in the section Tariffs or Archive of tariffs.

      If you do not use communication services for more than 90 days with a zero or negative balance of your Personal Account, the contract is considered terminated on your initiative. If the number has not been transferred to another person, it can be restored by filling out an application in the MegaFon salon.

      If you plan to not use mobile communications for a long time (more than 90 days), block your number.

Despite the availability of instant messengers and social networks, MMS messages are still in high demand among subscribers. They are often used by users of classic push-button mobile phones who rarely or do not use the Internet at all.

MMS allows you to send multimedia files (photos and images, small videos, audio recordings) in a message to subscribers within your city, as well as via long-distance and international communications.

In this article, you will learn how you can quickly send MMS messages from mobile to mobile.

Sending MMS from a mobile phone

This service is supported on all platforms, including classic versions of mobile phones. Media messages can be sent from any cell phone. The service allows you to send small photos, images and other files.

To successfully send an MMS, you need to make sure of the following:

  • the presence of the function of data transmission format GPRS on the device;
  • GPRS must be configured(in most cases, the option is configured automatically);
  • mobile phone must support multimedia;
  • there must be funds on the balance sheet.

Important! MMS messages are more expensive than regular SMS. Check out your rates. If there is no required amount on the balance, then the multimedia file will not be transferred successfully.

MMS is sent in the same way as SMS. The main thing is to select a different message format in the menu - MMS. To send a multimedia file (for example, a photo), you need to select the file you like when viewing photos and click "Send via MMS" in the options.

In some mobile phones, a media file can be inserted when entering an SMS message. In the options, select "Add" and then specify the necessary files from the Gallery, for example, photos, audio, etc.

Forwarding MMS from a smartphone

Sending multimedia files from a smartphone via MMS is much easier, since on such devices all settings work automatically. Even in case of failures, after rebooting the device, the settings are resumed. The option is available on all platforms, including Android and iOS.

You can send a multimedia file via your smartphone in MMS format in the following ways:

  • through the Gallery;
  • in SMS;
  • through the camera.

If you need to configure the mms function on your smartphone, find the "Sim card and mobile networks" item in the "Settings" section. In the case of using two SIM cards, choose one, from the number of which the message will be sent.

The access point is selected in the "Access Point" item. She is responsible for the correct reception of messages in the mms format. After selecting a point, all changes are saved by clicking on the appropriate button.

If you have Android, then setting up mms is much faster if you request data from the operator, or when you go to the official website of your version of the platform.

How to send or open MMS on Android?

All messages, including those with multimedia files, open automatically on smartphones. If this does not happen, then perhaps you should check the correctness of the settings. If an MMS is received, it is automatically stored in a regular folder along with SMS messages.

Often there are cases when a message with a multimedia file does not open.

The main reasons are:

  • incorrect settings;
  • network failure;
  • MMS are not supported;
  • the memory card is full.

Sending MMS on iOS platforms

Sending messages with a multimedia file on iOS devices has its own subtleties. If you need to send MMS from an iPhone, then the steps are the same as for Android.

In order for the message to be sent successfully, the connection must be configured correctly. To do this, open the home menu and find the “Settings” section. In them, click on the “Basic” item, then “Network” and complete the steps by selecting the “Cellular Data Transfer” item.

Finally, you need to select the individual parameters of the mobile operator. They are found in advance on the Internet, or received automatically after a request. The columns "MMS UA Prof Url" and "Maximum size" are left empty. After entering all the settings, reboot the device.

Simple steps to send MMS:

Outcome

Sending MMS is easy, both from a mobile phone and a smartphone, the main thing is that the network is properly configured.

Many users of the mobile operator Tele2 are interested in how they can send an MMS message, and is there a free option
Let's start with free sending MMS to Tele2 from a computer to a phone. Unfortunately, this feature is currently not available. Previously, indeed, it was possible by visiting the site at the link u.tele2.ru/mms/, users could send a small multimedia message for free. True, even then the list of images was limited, and its size is quite small. But now the service is unavailable and when you click on the link, we get to the main page of the site. Thus, the service of free sending MMS to Tele2 is not available.

Briefly on the topic

The process of sending MMS is completely similar to the process of sending a simple SMS. A distinctive feature is that you can attach photo, video or audio files to the first one.

Sending and receiving multimedia messages

The algorithm for sending MMS from Tele2 is the same as for a regular message. With the only exception that inside it you can attach not only text, but also some content. It can be a photo, a video file, or an audio file. Please note that the size is limited and "heavy" files cannot be transferred.

If we talk about how to send MMS from phone to phone on Tele2, then everything works exactly the same as described above. It is enough that the sending and receiving parties have their media settings correctly set.

For Tele2 subscribers, there is a way out even if there are no such settings: a message will come with a link to Gallerylocated on the official Tele2 website. The message will also include a code. It is enough to go to the specified address, enter your phone number, pin code and press the browse button.

Possible problems and solutions

The mobile operator offers to call the toll-free number 679 and order the missing settings. The same should be done if the Internet connection is not configured, there is a server response error when sending MMS from Tele2.

Also, you can use manual settings.
For multimedia messages:

For internet:

If the algorithms listed above did not lead to the desired result, there is no connection or multimedia messages are not sent, it is better to contact the official Tele2 communication salon or the Support Service.

With the development of the era, mms should have lost their former popularity. But this did not happen for various reasons: firstly, not all people have access to the Internet, and secondly, sending MMS messages is much faster than in any messenger.

Benefits of MMS

mms on android

With the Android operating system, in most cases, they support data transfer using MMS. Just need to set it up. You can change configurations on Android using automatic settings, you can immediately contact your mobile operator, manually configure it, or order settings on the operator’s website.

Automatic MMS setting

This method is very convenient, because the technique will do everything itself instead of the user. The probability of making a mistake or harming a mobile device tends to zero. The only negative: you can use automatic configuration only once (when you first register in the mobile operator's network). How to set up MMS automatically:

  1. Install a SIM card.
  2. Launch your mobile device and enter a pin code if required.
  3. Receive settings in the form of SMS messages from a mobile operator.
  4. Run the configuration and wait for the installation to complete.
  5. Now you can read sent messages.

Asking for help from the operator

Unlike the previous method, you can ask for help from the operator an unlimited number of times. But here the user will have to clearly follow the instructions in order to achieve a positive result. Each mobile network operator has its own free technical support number. You need to ask to send MMS settings to mobile phone number:

  • MTS - 0890;
  • Megafon - 0550;
  • Motive - 111;
  • Beeline - 0611.

After ordering the settings, you must accept them, and then restart the device in order to start using and sending messages. It happens that the service does not connect the first time and requires additional activation. In this case, you need to call technical support again and ask to enable the service for this cell phone number. After all the manipulations, graphic messages will be activated.

Setting MMS manually

If it is impossible to get through to the operator, and the MMS service is needed any minute, then you will have to install it on your own. Instruction:

The next steps depend on the operator. Only some columns are the same for users of Beeline, Megafon, MTS, Tele 2, Motive. These are the “access point type” - mms and the “MMS port” - 8080 (there is an alternative code 9201 for MTS and Tele 2 subscribers). An example of settings for the Beeline mobile operator.

Username can be any(use the characters of the Latin alphabet). The access point is mms.beeline.ru. The login, or username, will be beeline and the password matches it (also beeline). Enter http://mms/ in the MMSC field. The IP address for this mobile operator is 192.168.094.023.

You need to enter only the specified information, and leave the rest of the columns unchanged. After that, you only need to save the entered data and restart the mobile device.

Order settings on the website of the mobile operator:

  1. Go to the website of the mobile operator.
  2. Choose among the listed model of your cellular device, enter your mobile phone number.
  3. Press "send".
  4. After some time, the phone will receive settings that will need to be set.
  5. Reboot your device when installation is complete.

Your question:

How to send MMS to a mobile device?

Master's response:

The function of mms messages differs from SMS in that you can transfer not only text messages, but also files. There are both free and paid ways to send MMS messages. Use any of these depending on the type of file you want to send, as well as your personal preference.

To send mms from your phone, you will need the WAP/MMS service package settings. In your starter package, which should be attached to the SIM card, you can find the number of the technical support service for subscribers. If the number is missing, then you can simply go to the official website of your operator, which you can find there. It will not be difficult for you to find the phone you need on it. Call him and tell the model of your mobile device. Activation of this service is free of charge, but the messages themselves are subject to tariffication. You will be informed about the rates. Request a message with the settings for your phone, then apply them.

In order to send an MMS message from your phone, you need to go to the menu for sending multimedia messages, after which you need to enter the recipient's number and compose a message. You can also attach a picture, audio or other file. Submit your message.

Also, you can use Internet messaging services. There are quite a few such sites. For example, one of these sites is free-mms.ru. You must follow the link http://www.free-mms.ru/index.php?r=sentmms/index, then fill in all the required fields. Choose a number prefix and then just add the rest of the digits. Enter a title and text for your message, as well as the sender's phone number and phone name. Then upload a picture to send, or specify a link to it and click the "Submit" button.

If you want to send a picture, then you should, first, upload it to a file sharing service for images. For example, imglink.ru. After that, copy the resulting image link and send it in a message. Also, you can perform this action in two ways. The first way is to send an SMS message from your phone, and the second way is to use the free messaging service. The actions you take are similar to those that must be performed when sending mms messages from the service site. You just need to insert a link into your SMS message, then enter the recipient's number and send it.
