VC & MTN MMS settings
Did you use a CAB file to configure your MMS settings or was it setup manually?
are there any other Black 2.0 Users out there with the same problem ??? i doubt it is a ROM cos i came across a similar issue in the past with one user ... i cant remember off hand what the fix was for his hiccup ...
so first question is are the Black 2.0 users experiencing this problem ???
I set mine up manually using a file that The Guy or dotVibe had put together.
After my 2nd flash to WMXDA 1.2 I had similar problems with MMS. This was because I used the cab file. Managed to fix it with some input from Leaf.
