• I can’t open mms on android tele2. How to make settings to activate the MMS service from Tele2. Basic conditions for successful setup

    Gradually, classic MMS messages are fading into the background. They are being replaced by more advanced and also free messengers such as WhatsApp, Telegram, Viber and others. Nevertheless, subscribers continue to use multimedia messages. Let's look at how.

    Conditions for successful setup

    In order for sending MMS to be successful, it is important to meet some conditions:

    • The number's balance must be positive and sufficient to send at least one MMS.
    • The number must not be blocked in any way.

    If these simple conditions are met, then you can safely begin setting up the reception and sending of MMS.

    Request for automatic configuration


    At a time when there were no modern instant messengers, and the only ICQ on the phone at that time worked with varying success, subscribers quite often used MMS to exchange pictures, melodies, congratulations, and so on. The operator's contact center received a lot of requests related to MMS. Automatic settings have been developed specifically to minimize these requests.

    1. Tele2, like all other providers, made sure that the settings were sent to the subscriber immediately automatically as soon as he inserted a SIM card into his phone. For most modern models, settings are not needed in principle. The device receives them from the network and saves them in its profiles. For devices of previous generations, they may come in the form of a profile file. All you need to do is save them and reboot your device. You can set it up, and thus in the specified way, completely free of charge.
    2. If the configuration did not arrive in automatic mode, you can request the settings yourself in several ways:

    Some telephone sets do not want to accept the configuration in automatic mode. This is especially true for gadgets that came to us from China. In this case, it would be useful to know the parameters for manual adjustment of MMS.

    Changing settings manually

    The settings in manual mode for all telephones are absolutely identical:


    All other parameters can be left blank. This is more than enough for MMS to work on your phone. After you have entered all this data, you need to make your profile active. For the changes to take effect, you must restart the device.

    Android


    Most modern telephone models run on the Android platform, including the popular Samsung. All these models pull settings from the network automatically. If this does not happen, then setting up MMS on Tele2 for Android is very easy: go to the data transfer settings and turn on mobile data. Next, you need to click “More” and find the APN - create a new access point. Configuration data can be useful for this.

    You don't need to fill out anything else.

    iOS


    Let's now figure out how to set up MMS on iPhone. In principle, all models are identical in settings: 4/4S, 5/5S, 6/6S.

    The first condition is that cellular data must be active in the network settings. If they are enabled, but sending does not occur, you need to fix it.

    Next, go to “Cellular Communications” - “Cellular Data Network” - profiles for the Internet and MMS will open here. As a rule, the profile itself will already be filled out. For example, data on the previous operator may remain here. In this case you need to fix:

    Windows


    As you know, some equipment manufacturers are based on Windows OS. For example, you can set up MMS on a Nokia phone if you know some subtleties. In addition to the parameters that we considered for Android, here you also need to set “IPv4” in the network type, and put a negative (NO) in the “Authentication” line. That's all that distinguishes Windows from other platforms.

    In your personal account


    Settings for MMS can be found in your personal account. To do this, go to your personal account website from any computer. In the “Tariffs and Services” section there is a “Phone Settings” item. If you go here, you can select your phone by name and send yourself the parameters, which you can then only save. This is very convenient if you continue to use gadgets that in 5 years you can see in mobile communication museums.

    Frequently Asked Questions


    An operator expert answers the most popular questions about multimedia messages:

    — I set up MMS, but instead of pictures I receive SMS with links...

    To register correctly on the MMS portal, you must send anyMMS to a Tele2 subscriber. After this, messages will arrive correctly.

    — How much does MMS cost in "Tele2"?

    The cost of a message depends on the tariff plan. Average price – 5 rubles.

    — Where can I send mms?

    Sending messages is possible to any Russian number. You can also send to numbers near and far abroad, but delivery is not guaranteed.

    — My phone stopped receiving MMS messages, but the settings did not change.

    You need to check if there is free memory on your smartphone. If the memory is full, messages will be rejected.

    — Why does my phone send SMS as MMS?

    This situation can occur when you write a very long SMS message. In this situation, the smartphone recognizes the long text as an MMS and sends it. This mode can be turned off in the device settings.

    It is advisable to solve the problem of setting up MMS quickly, because every owner of a modern gadget wants to start exchanging photos, audio and video content, and other types of multimedia files as soon as possible. MMS settings for Tele2 are set in two ways: automatically or independently - by forcing the received parameters.

    Configuring MMS on Tele2 occurs in the same ways as with other operators, but has its own characteristics:

    • The option can only be activated by bringing the SIM card into an active state. If the service does not work, you must resort to dialing 610;
    • To send photos or other files to friends, you must first check whether the gadget is capable of supporting the corresponding option;
    • if the device does not support the MMS format, you can see the inbox in a dedicated folder with media files (MMS gallery). In this case, you will only be able to view a normal image. Videos, audio recordings and similar content will not open;
    • Internet access is a prerequisite for correct MMS exchange;
    • For gadgets in which data exchange occurs via WAP 1.x, correct (without distortion) sending of messages is not guaranteed.

    MMS configuration parameters on Tele2 are usually received automatically, without taking any special actions. After purchasing and placing a SIM card in the device slot, as a rule, all the functionality necessary for exchanging multimedia files becomes available to the client. After a short time, it becomes an integral part of the mobile gadget. If the service’s auto settings are not received, the mechanism can be restarted in several ways:

    • by calling 679. After clarifying the essence of the issue, the operator will connect;
    • connect from your Personal Account, having previously registered on the company’s website. Then activate “Tariffs and Services” and “Settings” to, in fact, order settings for receiving and sending MMS.

    Having received the parameters for activation, you need to start their installation. You will need to restart your phone for the changes to take effect.

    How to install the option manually

    Activation methods and features of service support entirely depend on the phone manufacturer and its brand. If the algorithm for setting up the MMS messaging service differs from the standard ones, or for some reason you cannot do it on your own, you can always contact any Tele 2 sales office for advice.

    Devices running on the Android operating system usually provide automatic connection to the described service. If the procedure does not work as expected, on Android you can start it manually yourself. This requires sequential execution of several actions:

    • expand the main menu of the phone;
    • find the additional networks tab;
    • open the “Mobile networks” menu on your phone and the window for setting up a new access point.

    If the gadget does not have a pre-installed access point with the name “Tele2 MMS”, then by pressing the button at the bottom of the screen “+” you need to create a new profile. The following parameters are entered into the appropriate fields: mmsc.tele2.ru (MMSC), mms.tele2.ru (APN), mms (access type), 250 (MCC), 193.12.40.65 (proxy), 20 (MNC). The login and password lines are not filled in.

    All entered data must be saved and exited to the main screen again. The created profile is typed by name. After the reboot, it is recommended to send a test MMS (you can even send it to your own number) to register in the service. If you receive an error message, you should double-check the information you entered. Correctly specified settings guarantee uninterrupted operation of the option.

    You can also set up MMS for free in your Personal Account on the operator’s official website. It opens the “Tariffs and Services” section and selects “Phone Settings”. The empty fields contain the name of the manufacturer, phone model and type of settings (Tele2 MMS). To confirm, click the “Get settings” button. You may have to wait a bit for the application to be processed, and once the requested data is received, accept it. The device then restarts and you can download multimedia messages.

    iOS

    To get auto settings for MMS on Tele2 in devices with iOS, you need to take the following steps:

    • open the phone menu and select the “Settings” tab;
    • In “Settings”, open the “Cellular” section, then “Cellular Data”.

    To configure MMS, fill in several lines:

    • in the APN field it is indicated – tele2.ru;
    • MMSC – http://tariftele2.ru/mmsc.tele2.ru;
    • MMS proxy – 12.40.65:8080.

    The remaining lines are left blank. After completing the steps, the iPhone should be rebooted and a test MMS should be sent. This is how automatic registration in the service occurs.

    Windows

    If a person uses a Windows Phone, to make MMS settings, they should enter the same data as Android owners. The difference lies in the names and wording. You need to find the data transfer section and enter the address internet.tele2.ru. In the “Network Type” tab, you should put IPv4, “Authentication Type” – “No”.

    When setting MMS connection parameters, characteristic errors occur, the solution to which is common to all types of gadgets.

    1. MMS is not sent even if the parameters are set correctly. Rebooting the device and checking that data transfer is activated will help.
    2. The configuration is correct, the device is restarted, but the MMC does not load. You should check your Internet connection settings.
    3. The recipient does not receive the MMS. The maximum allowed message size may have been exceeded. For Tele2 subscribers the maximum is 1024 KB, for other recipients – 500 KB.
    4. MMS do not go away from any phone. Tele2 customer support will help solve the problem. The operator may be carrying out preventive maintenance work.

    Option cost

    The price of an MMS message, logically, is higher than a simple message with text, since multimedia is much “heavier”. They may contain videos, sound files and photos. Their transfer is convenient for clients, however, the limitation on the volume of transferred information (500 or 1024 KB) should be taken into account. Large files cannot be transferred. The cost of one MMS on Tele2 is, on average, 6.5 rubles. The price may vary in different regions, so it is better to find out about this on the Tele2 website.

    How to watch MMS on Tele2

    If the subscriber's device does not recognize the parameters of the received message, or when the recipient wants to see the attachment on a large scale, in detail, you can view the MMS via a computer. The subscriber receives a message with a link to open the attachment, as well as a password for this. Using this data, you can view MMS in your Personal Account, following the algorithm:

    • open the website (http://t2mms.tele2.ru);
    • go to the MMS gallery, enter your number in the required line;
    • rewrite the message code;
    • press the “MMS” button.

    Tele 2 company provides customers with the opportunity to send MMS for free via the Internet. Using a computer in the same way as for viewing received media files, a person can send free messages from a computer to a phone. On the company’s website you need to enter your data (phone number, addressee details, confirmation code), and then attach pictures, photos, video files.

    You can order the MMS setup of the Tele2 operator, and all parameters will be registered automatically, but if your phone model is not in the support base of the automated service, then the parameters can be registered manually. We will look at how to do this below. Let us remind you that MMS or multimedia messaging service is a service that allows you to send and receive a type of message, content, in addition to text (as in SMS), also a multimedia component, that is, messages with embedded photos, music, and video files. In order to activate the ability to receive and send multimedia content without the Internet, you must first download special settings to your phone.

    By the way, not all phones can fully receive MMS; some models are technically unable to display multimedia messages. If you have just such a device, then you will receive only the text part of the message, as well as a link to the multimedia content page with a code. By following this link and using the code, you can view the entire message from a computer or other device (tablet, smartphone, etc.).

    There are several ways to configure your phone settings for working with MMS; in any case, it will take no more than a couple of minutes.

    1. Automatically receiving and registering parameters is the most common way to configure a mobile phone and the easiest. If your device is not exotic, then the parameters will be registered automatically. Operators, as a rule, pre-register MMS parameters and settings in the SIM. When a user installs a SIM card in a new (different) phone, a request is sent to a special operator server, in response to which the data used in the setup is received. The user just needs to confirm them, and the service for receiving and sending mms is automatically activated.
    2. If this did not happen due to a failure during the procedure, or you accidentally canceled, or for other reasons, it’s okay, since you will still receive the settings for mms from Tele2.

    The system will automatically recognize the phone model and notify that the application has been accepted. In a minute or two, your phone will receive a system message with all the parameters (settings for the Internet and MMS), you simply confirm the installation, and all the parameters will be automatically registered in the device. The phone should then be rebooted. That’s it, from now on the device will be able to receive and send MMS multimedia content without the Internet.

    Manual setting

    If your mobile phone model is not in the automated service database (the system could not identify it), or the settings arrived but could not be registered automatically, you can set all the necessary settings manually. There is nothing complicated in the procedure, especially if you follow the instructions below. Just enter the received data in the appropriate fields.

    So, go to the phone menu and look for the item with installation/settings of MMS parameters. The section will display a window with fields in which we enter:

    • profile name - think of anything, Tele2 is possible;
    • data channel (channel type) – enter GPRS;
    • IP – enter 193.12.40.65 (carefully, don’t make a mistake);
    • operator server – //mmsc.tele2.ru;
    • port – 8080, if the phone is an outdated model, then port 9201;
    • the access point is the same as the home server - mmsc.tele2.ru;
    • subscriber name – leave blank;
    • password is empty.

    Now all changes need to be saved and returned to the general menu, where we set the main connection to the profile you just created (for example, Tele2). The phone must be rebooted for the settings to be activated. After this, try sending a test MMS, and you can send it to your own number. In this case, your phone will automatically register with the service. If the message is not sent and the phone gives an error, then go to the section and carefully check all the fields for errors. If the MMS passed without any error notes, then no verification is required, everything was done correctly.

    Settings in your Personal Account

    If for some reason the above methods do not suit you, then you can use the operator’s web service -.

    1. We go to the main page of the Tele2 website.
    2. Log in to your Personal Account.
    3. We go to the services and tariffs section, then go to “Phone settings”.
    4. Enter your phone model and click on “Get”.

    After this, after a while you will receive a system notification on your phone, simply confirm the settings and reboot your phone. That's it, you can use it.

    Setting up MMS from Tele2 on an Android device

    If you have an Android smartphone, then the MMS parameters from Tele2 are downloaded and registered as standard. The operator has all the popular models in its service database, and it is constantly updated. But if you have a model that is too exotic, then the parameters can be easily entered manually. It is worth noting that some parameter names may vary from OS version to OS version and on different shells.

    First, in the connection settings of your smartphone, you need to activate the smartphone connection for transfer. Next, in the mobile communications section we find “APN points”; we must create a new point by calling up the menu. A window will open with fields for recording, which we carefully fill out.

    1. In the apn type line we write mms.
    2. In the MMSC address line we write the website //mmsc.tele2.ru.
    3. In the APN line we write mms.tele2.ru.
    4. In the authentication line, select disabled.
    5. Port – 8080.
    6. Proxy server – 193.12.40.65.

    The main thing for all versions of Android is not to make mistakes in ports, IPs and addresses. There is no need to write any logins or passwords. Where these windows exist, we leave the fields empty. By calling up the menu, save the profile and reboot the smartphone.

    Setting up MMS from Tele2 on iPhone

    On an iPhone, the setup will also be performed automatically, since all Apple models are supported by the operator’s system; however, you can also enter the data manually. In the smartphone settings, you need to go to “Cellular Communications”, enable data transfer and in the appropriate section (MMS) enter the data provided by Tele2. All settings for phones can be viewed on the operator’s website. On iPhone, the login and password fields should also be left blank. We save the profile, reboot the device - that’s it, you can receive and send MMS.

    In order for a mobile phone to be able to access the Internet and send/receive MMS messages, it is necessary to configure the appropriate settings in it. Without settings, access to the above services will not be possible. In principle, almost all modern phones are configured automatically - activating a new SIM card leads to the automatic ordering of settings that only need to be applied. After this, just in case, you need to restart your phone so that the settings take effect as correctly as possible.

    But sometimes it happens that the phone remains unconfigured. In this case, you need to make manual settings or order automatic settings from the network. In this review, we will look at all the ways to make settings for Internet access from Tele2. MMS settings will also be discussed.

    The easiest way to set up your phone is to order automatic Internet settings on Tele2. They will be accepted from the network and registered in the appropriate profiles. You can order Internet settings on Tele2 by calling 679— they will be received within a few minutes in the form of incoming SMS messages. After this, you can go online using a built-in browser or a browser downloaded from somewhere (for example, Opera Mini, which saves traffic).

    How to manually set up Internet on Tele2

    If Tele2 Internet settings are not accepted or installed for some reason, you should set up manual settings. There is no need to put your phone in the hands of specialists and, especially, to pay money for it - all the settings can be set independently, there is nothing complicated about it. To enter the settings, you need to create a network profile and enter the following items there:

    • Profile name – Tele2 Internet (you can enter anything you want);
    • Home page – http://m.tele2.ru/
    • Proxy – disabled (accordingly, we do not enter any settings here);
    • Connection type – GPRS;
    • Access point (APN) – internet.tele2.ru (without http://);

    If necessary, indicate the created profile in the browser settings.

    Some phones provide a profile for Java applications. If Internet access does not appear, the phone needs to be rebooted. You will have to struggle with the settings of Chinese phones, since the names of the items there can be completely different.

    How to set up Internet from Tele2 on Android

    If the operating system version is 2.3 or lower, you need to follow the following path: Settings – Wireless – Mobile networks – Internet access points. After that, click Menu and select Create APN. Here we specify the following settings:

    • Name – TELE2 Internet;
    • APN – internet.tele2.ru (without http://);
    • MCC – 250;
    • MNC – 20;
    • APN type – default.

    Other items should be left blank. Next, click Menu and Save, and then try to go online. Don't forget to enable data transfer. Does your smartphone run Android 3.0 or higher? Then the settings will be different. We follow the following path: Menu – Settings – More – Mobile network – Access points (APN). Call the menu using the button or virtual button in the corner of the screen (it all depends on the design of your smartphone) and select New access point. At the created point we specify two single settings:

    • Name – Tele2 Internet;
    • APN – internet.tele2.ru (without http://).

    We save the settings and try to access the Internet, having previously activated data transfer. Also in the smartphone settings you need to set automatic or forced operation in 3G networks. Don't want to bother with manual settings? Call 679 and order automatic settings, which you only have to activate and save.

    How to enter Internet settings on Tele2 on iPhone

    It all depends on the version of the operating system installed on the smartphone. If your iPhone is running iOS 7.x.x, you need to follow the following path: Settings – Cellular communications (here we turn on the toggle switches Cellular data and Enable 3G) – Cellular data network. If your smartphone has iOS version lower than 7.x.x, then the path will be as follows: Settings – General – Network – Cellular data network. Next, you need to register the APN access point - internet.tele2.ru (without http://), and leave the username and password empty. After this, you can try to launch the browser and open a website.

    When making settings on phones and some smartphones, you need to be prepared for the fact that some items may be called differently.

    How to get MMS Tele2 settings

    Sending/receiving MMS is a service based on Internet access. And for it to work, settings will also be required. If they don't come automatically, you need to call 679. After a couple of minutes, a message with MMS settings will be sent to your phone. Save, activate, reboot and use.

    How to manually set up MMS on your phone

    If automatic settings do not arrive or are not registered, you need to enter manual settings. Create a profile:

    • Profile name – Tele2 MMS (the name can be anything);
    • MMS server (Home page) – mmsc.tele2.ru (without http://);
    • Proxy server – enabled (unlike Internet settings);
    • IP address (proxy server) – 193.12.40.65;
    • Port – 8080 for phones with WAP2, 9201 for older phones with WAP1;
    • Connection type or channel – GPRS;
    • APN (access point) – mms.tele2.ru (without http://);
    • Username and password are left blank.

    After this, you need to try to send MMS - the network must know that your phone can receive and send MMS. Otherwise, instead of incoming MMS, your phone will receive SMS with links to view multimedia messages.

    How to set up Internet on a 3G and 4G Tele2 modem

    As a rule, Tele2 modems are supplied already configured. But if for some reason there are no settings, then they need to be entered manually– for this, a profile is created with an arbitrary name (for example, Tele2 Internet), the dial-up number *99# and the access point internet.tele2.ru are indicated, the username and password remain empty. We save the profile, set it as the “default” profile and try to establish a connection.

    The MMS option allows Tele2 subscribers to exchange multimedia messages that can contain completely different attachments. For example, these could be photographs, video files or audio recordings. It is worth noting that the size of one multimedia message is limited. But today, almost all mobile devices can automatically compress MMS messages to the required size.

    In order to activate this service, you need to make the following settings, otherwise this option will not be activated and it will be impossible to send MMS messages. You also need to know that the subscriber to whom this message will be addressed must have a mobile device that supports this type of communication. Otherwise, he will only receive a link to the MMS gallery and a code to receive this message. But if the subscriber’s phone does not support receiving MMS messages, then he can simply go to the gallery website from any computer and view the contents of this message.

    At the moment, almost all existing mobile devices, smartphones and tablets can send and receive multimedia messages. But in some situations you will be required to manually configure the existing gadget. The thing is that only the most popular and widespread models have automatic settings. If you do not have the most common device, then most likely you will have to configure it manually.

    If you don’t want to set up your gadget yourself, then you can contact any nearest communication store and they will definitely help you. Only the provision of this service in communication shops is carried out on a paid basis.

    You can also call the Tele2 hotline and clarify all settings. But keep in mind that the waiting time for an operator’s response can be quite long and the best way is to make the settings yourself.

    Automatic settings MMS TELE2

    Undoubtedly, almost every subscriber would like his device to automatically accept settings from the Tele2 operator. It is worth noting that in most cases everything works out this way - you just need to insert a SIM card into the device and within a few minutes automatic settings will be sent to it. You will only need to activate these settings and then use the service of sending and receiving MMS messages. If a situation arises that the automatic settings did not arrive or they were previously rejected by the subscriber, then you will need to order them again.

    There are two ways to order automatic MMS settings on Tele2:

    • Call a short number 679
    • Order settings through your “Personal Account”.

    Manual setup of MMS on TELE2

    Manual configuration of MMS on Tele2 must be done in the “Connection settings” section. The name of this section can be individual for each device.

    Here you need to specify the following parameters:

    • Profile name – Tele2 MMS(or any other);
    • Home page – mmsc.tele2.ru;
    • Proxy – included;
    • Proxy server IP address – 193.12.40.65 ;
    • Port – 8080 (for older phones with WAP 1.1 the port number is set to 9201);
    • Connection type (channel, etc.) – GPRS;
    • Access Point (APN) – mms.tele2.ru(not to be confused with the home page);
    • Username – not filled in;
    • Password - not filled in.

    As soon as you enter manual settings, you will need to send an MMS message to absolutely any phone number. This action will help you determine whether everything was done correctly.

    How to set up MMS for devices running the Android operating system

    Most devices that run Android can automatically configure settings for receiving and sending multimedia messages. If automatic settings have not been performed, then you will have to configure this device manually.

    To do this, you need to go to the mobile network settings, find the access point settings item and create a new point with the following parameters:

    • MMSC (home page) – mmsc.tele2.ru;
    • Access point type – mms;
    • Access Point (APN) – mms.tele2.ru;
    • Proxy – 193.12.40.65 ;
