Problems with myTouch 4G

[Turtle_J]

I bought my phone two days ago and I haven't been able to send a picture message to anyone. I can send them when using wi-fi, but when I'm not on wi-fi I get an error message saying, "Generic Network Failure." Has anyone else been having this problem?

Call TMO... sounds like they did not active something correctly on your account.

Is you SIM card newer? Only asking because if T-Mo can't find a problem on their end... SIM card may be something they overlook on the phone and this might cause lots of wasted time trying to track your problem down. My SIM is from the Voicestream days so I asked for a new once since I heard old ones lacking newer network info can cause a variety of problems and the phone rep confirmed this - said that was true, and when they have a variety of network problems with customers a new SIM card usually does the trick.

Actually everyone should have updated their SIM especially if they have a G2 or MT4G because the SIM was redesigned for these phones and one should have been packaged with it. My old SIM was only a year old and when I put the new SIM in this phone and activated it...it even improved reception and made it slightly faster. Technical support told me that you should use the new SIM that comes with these phones as there is much more to the 4G network than the old SIMs can handle.

I'm still using a VERY old SIM card... I used it in a RAZR, BB 8900, BB 9700 and now in my myTouch4g without issue.

I've been having difficulty sending mms as well, and I'm using a fairly new (about 2 months old) SIM card.

This is what you do. got to setting>wireless & networks>mobile networks>access point names>then check t-mobile data. Not TelKila. Hope this helps

If it won't let you choose tmobile data click on the menu button, and choose reset to default. The apn's should reset and you should be able to choose it, and it stick.

Hope this helps

What if T-Mobile data isn't even an option? Should I make a new one and look up the settings?

Does anybody know y??? Thank you and have a great day!

:-\ ik the feeling. After five months of tourture mine is doing the same thing. Tech support aint worth sh*t (reseting it did very little maybe u should try it) . and the sales repps just want $$$$$. I've contacted HTC about the problem and they pretty much threw my to the wolves. I think its time we get a new android device. :-\

my problem is with MMS as well. unable to recieve or send. but it was working a while back. BEFORE i cleared out some data and cached in the "all applications" tab in settings. i've cleared out almost all the data and i'm pretty sure thats what's leading to my inability to send MMS and whatnot. i was wondering if any1 has a fix for this? i tried changing and fixing the APN's and reseting to default and such. i called customer service they told me the exact same thing but nothing was helping.

HELP. and now every time someone sends me an MMS it tries to download it randomly from time to time causing a wild chain of notifications stating "generic network failure" or "unable to send after many attempts" =(

My phone is not working properly. It will turn itself off without the process. The screen will go out and it won't turn on unless I take the battery out.
