MMS settings for metropcs with tmobile network

[GRASSINATOR]

I got it thanks to an AWESOME app named Netmonitor and then input all my settings courtesy of a Great site known as www.cellidfinder.com

I now have all the necessary information, but how would I go about implementing it?

I got it to work by re-flashing my device's latest firmware. I was already running the latest revision, but re-flashing it rectified the problem. I was now able manually create an APN and my provider's MCC and MNC data automatically populated. I saved settings, sent a text MMS message, confirmed that media was received. SUCCESS!!!

That MMSC address looks very sketchy to me, what is mmsmvno.com?

It means that MetroPCS is an mvno (mobile virtual network operator) on T-Mobile's network.

I'm not really referring to what the acronym of it means, the actual website that it would route your MMS messages through if you were to use it is what I'm questioning. It's not a T-Mobile URL, and it's not a MetroPCS URL, however it disguises itself by using "metropcs" in the sub-domain (ie: metropcs.mmsmvno.com). I don't think it's a legitimate MMSC address to use, and it could possibly be set up to intercept outgoing MMS messages then forward them on to MetroPCS making it so the user doesn't even notice.

All I know is that this is what is provided by MetroPCS. It's valid.

It's a T-Mobile mmsc Url owned by tmobile they just use metropcs.mmsmvno.com. so people will think they are on another network no T-Mobile would you want all your customers asking why they pay $80 a month for unlimited everything when your metropcs customers pay $60 it's smoke and mirrors

Out of curiosity, what phone are you using, when did you buy it, and where did you buy it? Did you activate it in store or buy the sim card online. If online, Metro or somewhere else?

Also, the mmsmvno is a T-mobile URL registered to their IP Counsel.

My device is bought from MetroPCS & is on MetroPCS network. I was having that same problem solved it by creating a new apn with just two things changed. APN type to default,supl,mms and APN roaming to IPv4. I will attempt using APN roaming in IPv4/IPv6.
