Help Recieving picture mail texts???

I get the same problem but have a trick that those who are rooted can use.

Whenever i make any major changes on my phone i will delete all previous text messages and make a nandroid backup. When i encounter the MMS download problem i simply restore that nandroid backup and i am back up and running in a matter of minutes without having to download all apps, sync contact, etc.

hope this helps.

I have a similar issue, but it's way weird.

I get the popup that say i have a new MMS message, and when I click download, everything disappears. No messages, nothing. When I go into their thread using either handcent or the original messages app, the message isn't there either... I'm always connected to the internet as I'm always receiving emails to my phone for work.

Has anyone had the same issue?
Or possibly know any resolution? I have to get online via pictures.sprint.com to see my messages...
