It’s now December and I started a contract with Sprint, I had no idea there were still companies that couldn’t send mms. That old sprint picture site is a little behind the times I would say. Seams like somethin you would have to do twenty years ago. I needed a windows based phone, there programming eliminates some of the features on the phone such as insert. I’m going to wait part of my thirties days and see if I find a solution. It can’t be just because of their network, I had helio which works off of sprint system and there was never an issue with mms. Also doing the junk to look at a link to the picture site, I can’t enlarge it enough to see any detail nor save it to the phone. Like being back in the 80s

The iphone can’t do pic mail can it? its not even a PDA. The HTC diamond is supposed to be the first Sprint WinMo phone to have MMS capabilty. I wonder if we can somehow get that app from the HTC 6950 to work on a Touch or mogul or anything older.

Glen, you couldn’t have said it better. I have been using the phone for about a month and am frustrated at everything you just mentioned above. Can’t send photos, can’t set call tones, can’t set ringers (which I did for when my wife would call my old phone), and what the heck is up with the earpiece using the same mini usb charging slot?!?!? This is what is going to send me to the iPhone when my contract is up in June.

This phone really sux I am so unhappy with this.. a 600dl phone and you can’t even send pics, can’t set call tones, can’t even set ringers… and you can’t even do a simple lil thing like hook up a ear piece to it because u have to have it plugged in to the outlet… ahhhhhhh… i’m so pissed

This happened to me to I’m very disappointed in this phone and sprint ,this phone is some crap I should have kept my 700p, this was not an upgrade.
They should have waited until they had the kinks worked out instead of putting this crap on the market.
They did a good job of hiding the full facts about this phone .No one told me about the short comings of this phone ,not even the sales rep who I talked with at the store

This story is false. I just switched from a Treo 755p to 800w and MMS is disabled. After sending feedback to dan@sprint.com, someone from Sprint called me to say that MMS (texting pictures) is disabled on most new Sprint phones. This means no Facebook Mobile uploads or texting photos. The representative said they are getting a lot of complaints about this, and we may see a change in the future. My old Treo 755p was able to text photos. VERY pissed at Sprint!

About time, I was seriously getting tired of using beta software that worked only half the time. Although some guy made a program that works pretty well, and that is pretty stable.
