Samsung Galaxy A50

[alcolmx]

Hey there. Not new to PM, but the A50 is new. I'm unable to send or receive pictures/videos via text. Mobile data is fine otherwise. I think my APN settings are ok, but I must be missing something. Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you so much! I was missing the all the APN types (I only had default) and my MVNO value was 4D, not 4D4F. All is good now! Thanks again!

Thedroidguy is one of my favourites and he has a couple of suggestions in addition to checking APN settings:

I'd like to know this answer too because I have never been able to send or receive picture texts.

@alcolmx, picture messaging (MMS) needs certain settings in the APN to point to the correct proxy for this unique form of mobile data.  It is very likely the APN setting fields related to MMS are in error.

Here are the APN settings for the A50 to double check if they are correct.
