Sprint officially releases picture mail update for WM phones

Haha yeah I had this working on my Mogul bt can't get it to work on the Vogue.... Ah well sMMS gits'er done just fine

the picture mail works fine on the Vogue. i'm not sure why all the problems. to get it setup the first time, i had to unload home. then set it up. then reload home. after that, it worked fine. it was a little quirky about things but it worked pretty good. it works the exact same was as the current version works on the pro. i guess it is possible, however, that the version i was running on my vogue was different than the one posted here. i'm not really sure. it looked exactly like the version on my pro looks.

the problem with sMMS that everyone just seems to love is that it's slower than molasses. by time it connects to the picturemail server, checks your account, downloads any new picturemail you may have, i could have drank 2 cups of coffee.

True to a extent. Don't disclaim it is easy to setup. problem is the software is unreliable. Also what you say smms does. hate to tell you it is the same thing picmail does. they all connect to server. sprints version is a prettied up version of smms.Lucky someguy didn't patent his creation.My pic mail on My girls pro works fine on mine not at all. Both on my custom rom beta 2.The problem basically is on sprints server end and how it authenticates a user. Its poor design at par.I still use smms on my personal pro.At least I know it works.i keep it in auto start folder so on boot it launches. Works great for me. every user has different experiences.

i'm not sure why i haven't had the problems that others have had. and as far as an easy setup, it's not. i just said it's not difficult once home is disabled.
i've tried the sprint pic mail on 3 touches and two pros with 0 problems. and they may do the exact same thing as far as server authentication but i still contend that because of the graphics of the sMMs, it's still much slower running on any of my phones than sprint version.
 
The thing I don't like about this is that is needs a lot of memory (RAM) for it to run. Pretty much whenever I want to send a pic, I have to soft reset first.
 
I just spoke to customer service online and he txt me an update and a sprint tv cab i downloaded and my sprint picture mail worked sent a pic to my girlfriend and bamm she got it less then a minute. you guuys have to try

This is the same as what you said in the thread u just posted... do you have a link to said cab?
 
thanks for the share but still dont understand how a tv cab would have anything to do with picture mail........ two totally different apps and different spots in the registry.

Yeah I doubt it also... but I still will ry it,.. not for pic mail as I use arcsoft and its great... but, i needed a new sprint tv cab because the one i have isnt working, so Ima try this with a reinstall...lol

Trust me dash i asked him are u sure thats the cab im supposed to use and he said ahhh you asked for help right ,said yea so i just went along i wouldnt lie to you or any of you guys here at AMJ:connie_mykilroy:

Yeah I hear yah man... but Im with D/\SH, I doubt it was the cab itself that enabled you pic mail to work...
Im geussing because you said he did some things on his end, and probably some OTA adjustments, he just had you download and install this cab b/c the the installation process it does, help sync ur devices settings w/ sprints network and implement his changes at the moment, or something like that I'm geussing

None the less, thanks for sharing!
 
so i downloaded it and everything, but when i open the configue it says raph800 or something like that, and it wont let me download it, help anyone?
Also someone know a good rom?

what are you talking about? the file is atatched in the first post and it is a cab file which is like an exe for your computer.... i would recommend that you take a look at the noob guide which can be found in my signature if you dont know how to install cab files.
 
i think you give me less credit, and i dont like it when you call me a noob....this is only the first time i ever hacked phones..

Anyways, i installed it and i loaded it up and it said raph800 and i only pressed okay and nothing happened...

Its called the noob guide. And if it is your first time...then you are a noob. Its not a demeaning word man. Its just a term for people new to the scene. So take a chill pill.
