MMS/Picture message sending issues?

[peterr22]

I'm having issues sending picture messages. The message stays pending and doesnt send...anyone know maybe why this is happening? I can tell you that the picture size is right around 1mb, is this verizon restricting the message?

thanks

and sorry if there was a post already, i did search but found no exact answer

Guessing it is probably the same as this thread

It seems a lot of people are having trouble with this. Some have reported that they contacted VZW and their phone was replaced. I too am having trouble with MMS. I can send pic messages to some phone numbers and others I can't. It either hangs like you describe or says the number I put in is not correct. I am not going to return my perfect phone because it must be some type of software issue or network issue. Hopefully we hear of a fix soon.

VZW thought the same thing with me. They even "reset the networking" to it through some "special code sequence" (kind of like *228)

But in the end a new phone fixed it. I know there was nothing else wrong with the phone but I tried everything else and I'm glad I made them replace the unit. It now works flawlessly for EVERYTHING and I didn't have any more time to mess around with it more than the 5 hours I had already spent (phone with verizon and at the verizon store)
