Why can't I send or receive pictures through texts? I have done the apn but I'm missing the mms proxy I have mms proxy. I'm not sure what needs to be done or what else I have to do for it and it's a Samsung Galaxy 3 android

@Why,

 

Please double verify that you entered correctly all the APN setting.

 

Try to reboot your mobile.

 

If it's not working, reset your APN to default, then configure it again.
