Default How to get MMS to work without a Data Plan??

I Have a unlocked blackberry tour (sprint) but I am on T-mobile. I have unlimited family texting and I can send SMS with no problem.

For some reason I can't send or receive MMS. I already talk to t-mobile and they told me to do the sim card/battery pull after I deleted my service books but that still didn't fix the problem.

Anyone Know if it is possible to send/receive picture texts without a data plan????

Well you can find your answer in most of the links on that first page, or you can find your answer to the duplicate thread you created.

You need data for MMS. Thats just the way it is.

It's not trolling, and if you knew ANYTHING about, everyone who post "how do i____ " without posting "i did search else where" you will get the LMGTFY experience.


with that being said, if you didn't find it on Google, which does search Crackberry, it's probably not possible

You can use MMS without a data plan. You may have to set up a few things in the phone for T-Mobile settings instead of Sprint settings, BlackBerry Tech Support should be able to help you do that.

You can call them using 611 from your phone or 1-800-937-8997 from another phone (which is preferred) or you can go to t-mobile.com and use the chat option through the Support area.
