Do you send those pics through texting? The text you got from the company is actually about the APN settings on the phone. Use these settings without touching the other settings. Save it, select it as the active APN, go in and out of airplane mode to use it. And do you use the phone for browsing web pages when not on wifi?

Truth be told, I'm on 3G $15 plan myself and send texts and pictures as well. Unless you're doing hard core surfting and download and stuff like that, why pay extra for 5G speeds if you're happy with 3G? It's all about saving money here at Public Mobile.

Do you text any pictures? Do you use the phone for internet access not on wifi? If not then disregard the text.

Your Samsung SM-A536W is a 5G phone and should work.

Make sure your phone is updated to the latest firmware/software.
