Android Question

I have just brought a new phone. I have received a text message from an iphone, with a download but I can't open it.

When I press it - a message comes up that has a symbol and header disconnect current network. Then underneath changing data service network will disconnect network currently in use. Change data service network? cancel or ok?

I say yes and it looks for it, but nothing happens. When i go out of the msg, and look at the date it was sent, it states draft.

I open my download app that came with the phone and nothing.

Any ideas?

Please note that the phone has 2 sims. When I looked at the different network option o2, orange and vodaphone came up. Should I check each one? Or was it doing that when I agreed to change data network which it requested? Also how do i know what data network my sims are working on? With limited knowledge with phones, I thought they would automatically connect with the one I am paying for??

Any help would be good - as i'm used to HtC opening up my attachments automatically or if it couldn't at least i understood why!
 
Hi, welcome to Android Forums, sorry it's taken so long to get to you. Pictures and other media sent through text message must be sent using your data plan. Please be sure that your mobile data is enabled when receiving MMS.


It might help to try an app like Save MMS attachments

If that does not fix your problem, please repost your question.
