If you are sending pictures to another iphone user, you will need to make sure imessage is enabled. If your MMS settings are not set correctly or you dont want to use MMS, you need to make sure imessage is active.

Go to settings/messaging and check to see if imessage is activated.

Is your internet already working ok?

Have you set up your iPhone for data & MMS? Download the giffgaff app and use the install settings option or set these up manually. (NOTE the giffgaff APP doesn't install MMS settings, these have to be entered manually as below)

iOS 6 Goto Settings> General> Mobile Data> Mobile Data Network (scroll down to see)
iOS 7 Goto Settings> Mobile Data> Mobile Data Network (scroll down to see)
Now enter these settings
APN: giffgaff.com
USERNAME: vertigo
PASSWORD: password

MMS
APN: giffgaff.com
USERNAME: vertigo
PASSWORD: password

MMSC: http://mmsc-ac.mms.o2.co.uk:10021/mmsc
MMS proxy: 193.113.200.195:8080
MMS Max Message Size: 2097152
MMS UA Prof URL: [leave blank]

DON'T PRESS RESET just go back up the menu
Then pop it into airplane mode then off again and all should now be working.

MMS (picture messaging) cost 16p to UK mobiles and are not included in any goodybag allowance.if you don't have enough credit you can't send them.

[sloz ace of spades]

Firstly check you have airtime credit as mms (16 p each) arn't included in a goodybag allowance *100#
( you'll need credit to send test mms to yourself as you try each combination of settings in turn)

Reset network settings then try all the alternative settings, sending a mms to yourself each time

Reset network settings

go to
Settings
General
Reset ( at the bottom of the page)
And click reset network settings

Once the phone restarts
change the mobile data and mms apn 's
From idata.o2.co.uk
To giffgaff.com
( leave the usernames as vertigo)
dont click reset

Take note of the mmsc and mms proxy settings
Now try sending a mms to yourself start the number +447 and also 07 ( remove your number from contacts if you have it stored there)
And turn off iMessage before you send

Now try the other 3 combinations of settings mentioned below , copy and paste each setting, if you type it in there's always the chance you'll get a detail wrong


The important settings are the MSSC and mms proxy settings , there's two options for each setting so that's four possible combinations

MMSC
http://mmsc-ac.mms.o2.co.uk:10021/mmsc
http://mmsc.mediamessaging.co.uk:8002/

mms proxy
82.132.254.1:8080
193.113.200.195:8080

So try all the possible combinations
As i said before, when you send a test mms to yourself remove your number from contacts first and put the number in manually,
Try starting the number 07 and +447
