- Check that mobile data is actively connected — MMS can't send or receive over Wi-Fi alone.
- Verify the MMSC address: it must be exactly http://mms.um.data.uwclub.net:10021/mmsc.
- Verify the MMS Proxy and Port read mms.data.uwclub.net and 8799 — this is where most MMS faults come from.
- The APN Type needs mms as well as default and supl.
- Android needs the radio button tapped to activate the APN, not just saved.
- Verify MMS is switched on within the messaging app.
- A restart follows any changes made.
- Last resort: reset network settings, then re-enter everything from the table.
