Welcome to Android Central! Which carrier? Did you buy the phone from the carrier? Sending photos requires mobile data to be on, so make sure it is. If you're still having problems, and if the phone was originally from a different carrier that you brought to your current carrier, make sure the APN settings are correct. What is an APN, and how do I change it? | Android Central
