Can a blackberry pearl send and recieve picture messages?

Question

when i say messages i mean not email, also i know it can because the onboard help talks about mms, but i do not know how to activate/use

Answer 1

yes you can.

go to your inbox.

hit the menu button (button with 5 dots to the left of trackball)

scroll down to Compose MMS

it will open up your folders. You will probably want to hit the Up Folder and then select Device Memory or (if you have a memory card) select Media Card.

then choose the picture

OR

go to your menu

Select Media

select pictures

select device memory

(or if you have a memory card) select media card

select a picture

once the picture is opened, click the menu button, select Send As MMS

it will then take you to your address book, select your recipient

after that it will show you the message you are about to send

click the trackball

scroll to Send

click the trackball again

and there you go!

Answer 2

My sister has one and we send pictures to eachother through text all the time :D (she just got onto att so we're kinda excited)

I'll ask her how she does it. Personally I'm not a fan of the pearl so I rarely take the time to play with it.

Answer 3

MMS (mulitmedia messages) depend on your service provider and what plan you have with them.  If you are unable to send, contact them.  Otherwise, you can send a picture message by going to the media and then selecting "send as: MMS".

When you recieve a picture message, it will just show up in your messages folder.

Answer 4

You won't have the option of sending MMS messages if you don't have a BlackBerry data plan. This is required to send MMS messages when using a BlackBerry. I also think (not 100% sure) that a MediaNet plan will work too.

Answer 5

yeah. of course depending on which network. at&t to an at&t phone for sure.

Answer 6

att sure does

Answer 7
