How to send Videos on a Curve

**asquires2006** · 10-01-2008, 09:18 AM

Hi all...I have a Curve 8320 on T-Mobile, and want to figure out how to send a video file through MMS. I have tried everything including downloading the upgraded sofware which still does not allow. Is there a 3rd party application that allows sending video through MMS, or what does one do....

Thanks

BB's don't do MMS. I do this as a workaround: Click "Send As Email", then type in the desired phone #, then the recipient's provider MMS address. If I was sending a vid to someone on Sprint, it would look like this: number@pm.sprint.com

You just have to find out what the provider's MMS address is. Hope that helps.

I tried to attach a file, but keeps defaulting to picture folder and looking for a .jpg. Wont let me go anywhere else but in pictures.

I also just tried highlighting video, no way to send as an email either.

Set your Video Camera to MMS mode first: VIDEO CAMERA/OPTIONS/VIDEO FORMAT/MMS MODE (176 X144), then go to: MEDIA/VIDEOS/ALL VIDEOS, highlight the video that you want to send and hit: MENU/SEND AS EMAIL, then enter the # plus address there.

The Alltel Curve does MMS.

Correction.... Some BB's don't do MMS.

My 8330 with USCC Does.

An upgrade to 4.5.0.81 will fix that.

Ok, what I meant to say is most BB's don't do MMS, including T-Moble Curves. So, seeing as how asquire2006 is with T-Mobile, the workaround is probably the best option.

Just keeping you in line...

I cant do the work around either, there is no option for attaching video in an email...keeps forcing me to attach a picture and .jpg or .gif extension. And defaults for picture folder. tried placing video in picture folder, but its looking for a picture format extension.
