Internet and MMS settings
To send multimedia messages, or to access the Internet when there is no available
Wi-Fi® network, you must have a working mobile data connection with the correct
Internet and MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) settings. Here are some tips:
•
For most mobile networks and operators, Internet and MMS settings come pre-
installed on your device. You can then start using the Internet and send multimedia
messages right away.
•
It is possible to download these settings via Wi-Fi®.
•
You can manually add, change or delete Internet and MMS settings on your device at
any time. If you change or delete an Internet or MMS setting by mistake, download
the Internet and MMS settings again.
•
If you cannot access the Internet over a mobile network or if multimedia messaging is
not working, even though the Internet and MMS settings have been downloaded
successfully to your device, refer to the troubleshooting tips for your device at
www.sonymobile.com/support/
for network coverage, mobile data, and MMS issues.
•
If Battery saver mode is activated to save power, all mobile data traffic gets paused
when the screen is off. If this causes connection problems, try excluding some
applications and services from being paused, or deactivate Battery saver mode
temporarily.
•
If you are using a device with multiple users, only the owner, that is, the primary user,
can download Internet and messaging settings from the Settings menu, but the
downloaded settings are applicable to all users.
