iv recently changed to a giff gaff sim and now i cant get picture messaging, i have googled the problem and some people say use whatsap and others say download giffgaff vnp ap but iv read this can also damage your phone, i have a new xperia miro and it runs on ics whats the safest and best thing to do for a non techy like me?

Got a new Android and MMS didnt work on this or the previous one using Giff Gaff, you need credit as well as the goodybags for it to work, I put a tenner on top of my usual £15 the other day and it all started working fine.

ooo you shouldnt be having to pay extra when there is another way to get pics for free, i know sending pics isnt part of your goody bag i think you get charged 15p and i have credit in my phone but its still free to receive them (and at the min im not)im after info on what the best app is for my phone so keep checking this thread and you may get a cheaper way of having picture messaging too

I downloaded the Giff gaff APN App and it didnt work, MMSC address in this set up woked for me, with a Nexus 4.
