What is MMS? This question is asked by many mobile users. Despite the fact that it is no longer the 2000s, this function is still actively used by many mobile phone owners. The reasons for using MMS can be different: low Internet speed on a smartphone (or its complete absence), an old mobile phone model that does not support modern programs, etc. In this regard, users often ask questions: “How to send MMS?” "How to transfer MMS from phone to computer?" etc. If you are reading this review now, then you are probably also interested in such questions. Especially for you, we have created a publication that fully covers this topic. We invite you to familiarize yourself with it in order to get comprehensive answers to your questions and finally find out what MMS is!
MMS. What does this word mean?
As many might have guessed, MMS is an English abbreviation. It stands for Multimedia Messaging Service. By the way, the word SMS, known to many, is also an abbreviation and stands for Short Messaging Service.
What is MMS and how is it different from SMS?
We’ve sorted out the meaning, now let’s move directly to the topic of the article. MMS is a multimedia messaging service. This function allows the mobile phone user to send and receive on his device not only text messages (as is the case with SMS), but also graphic images, audio files and video recordings.
While the size of an SMS message often does not exceed a few bytes, the size of an MMS message usually reaches 100 kilobytes. If a person wants to send a video to someone, the MMS size will be much larger. But do not forget that 100 kilobytes is only an approximate parameter. The maximum upload file size is determined by your subscription service provider and may vary for each subscriber.
Sending MMS messages
How to send MMS? Another question that is of great interest to many mobile subscribers. In fact, sending MMS messages is a very simple procedure that does not take much time. The mobile phone user just needs to go to the "Messages" item on his gadget, select the MMS section, write a text (if necessary), attach a picture/song/video, select the person to whom he wants to send it, and then press " Send".
It is worth saying that to use this function, your mobile device must support it and be configured correctly.
The answer to this question will be even shorter than the previous one. To view the contents of an MMS message that was sent to you, you need to go to the previously mentioned “Messages” item, then go to the “Inbox” section and select the MMS you need from the list. Now you know how to watch MMS. As you can see, there is nothing complicated about this. Got it? Let's move on.
MMS to MTS
"How does MMS work on MTS?" - another popular question among users. Well, let's try to answer it.
Like other subscription service providers, MTS allows its users to send MMS messages to other mobile phones, tablets and email addresses.
Sending one MMS will cost the subscriber 9.9 rubles (for residents of the Russian Federation). There is no charge for receiving incoming MMS.
MMS exchange is possible with MTS users, as well as with subscribers of other operators in the Russian Federation and other countries.
Sending MMS is possible only if the "Mobile Internet" function is available.
When sending a multimedia message outside the Russian Federation, traffic charges will be charged according to the roaming tariff. MMS delivery time to MTS is 72 hours. The size of one MMS in the MTS system is 500 kilobytes. Messages to numbers of other operators - 300 kilobytes.
How to manually set up MMS on a smartphone or tablet?
Setting up MMS on your device will go like clockwork if you follow the following rules:
- IPhone OS: Settings - Cellular - Cellular data network.
- Android: Settings - Wireless networks - Mobile network - Access points (APN).
- WP: Settings - Data transfer - Add Internet access point.
Print the following information:
- Standard APN settings: mms Username/Username/Login:gdata or leave the field empty.
- Password/Password/Pass:gdata or leave the field blank.
- APN Type: mmsMMSC (Homepage Address): http://mmsc:8002.
- Proxy server MMS (IP address): 10.10.10.10.
- Port proxy: 8080.
- MCC: 250.
- MNC: 0.
To access the Internet, enable data transfer:
- iOS: Settings - Cellular - Voice and data - 2G/3G/LTE.
- Android: Settings - Wireless networks - Mobile network.
- WP: Settings - Data transfer.
As you can see, there is nothing supernatural in setting up MMS. Follow the tips above and you will succeed!
Sending MMS from PC to mobile phone
Many users of the World Wide Web want to know how to send SMS or MMS from a computer to a phone. Surely someone will think that only some experienced hacker, but not the average network user, can do this. In fact, almost anyone can send MMS from a computer. Moreover, this can be done absolutely free! The only thing that is required from the user is access to the Internet and the ISendSMS program, which allows you to send SMS and MMS from a PC to a mobile phone.
This program can be downloaded from the official website of the developers. With its help, you can send both text and multimedia messages to phones of different operators from the CIS. Despite its ease of use, it has two disadvantages:
- When receiving a message, the recipient will not display your phone number, which means that he may not know who sent him the SMS/MMS.
- This program does not work on all mobile operators. Some mobile service providers have good security systems, which means that the user may not always be able to send a message to the number he needs.
How to send MMS online?
If you do not trust this program and simply do not want to download anything from the Internet, then we can offer you an alternative, namely sending messages online. There are many services on the World Wide Web that allow you to send SMS and MMS messages through a browser without downloading any additional applications. But there are some drawbacks here: such sites may be unsafe for your personal computer, and therefore we recommend that you do not take risks and not use the services of suspicious Internet portals of this type.
But don't despair! Some mobile operators (for example, the previously mentioned MTS) allow you to send letters directly from their official website. This does not take much time, and the security of such a procedure is guaranteed by the mobile service provider itself. But such a system also has its disadvantages: firstly, the user is given a strictly limited number of messages that he can send; secondly, he can only send text messages, which means that he will not be able to transfer MMS from a computer this way; thirdly, a person can send messages only to the numbers of this mobile operator.
As you can see, all the proposed options have both their advantages and serious disadvantages. You can try each method yourself and choose the one that suits you best.
MMS and viruses
Not long ago, all owners of the Android system were shocked by unpleasant news: the Stagefright MMS virus was actively spreading online, penetrating smartphones, thereby giving hackers complete control over these devices. At the moment, the hype about this has died down a little, but do not forget that the danger of “infecting” the phone is almost always present. Every day, computer hackers create dangerous viruses that allow them to gain access to all your personal data.
But for now let's focus specifically on the Stagefright virus. It works on the following principle: an MMS arrives on an Android user’s phone, “infecting” the operating system with a virus, which begins automatically sending the same message to numbers from your phone book. The worst thing is that even deleting a suspicious message will not help the user in any way. The fact is that all Android devices have the Hangouts program installed by default, which automatically processes all received SMS and MMS messages without the owner’s knowledge. This begs the question: how to remove MMS with a virus without harming your mobile phone? Is it even possible to do this? Well, let's figure it out.
In fact, the simplest and most reliable method of protection is to replace the Hangouts program with another text messenger. There are two ways to change the default application for receiving and sending messages:
- This is done through the smartphone settings: "Settings - Wireless networks - More - SMS applications." It is worth adding that a similar algorithm may vary on different smartphones, but its essence always remains the same, namely: find a program for sending and receiving text and multimedia messages.
- It is carried out directly in the Hangouts application: "Settings - SMS - SMS exchange is enabled."
If you have Hangouts automatically installed in the list of programs for exchanging SMS and MMS messages, then go to any other application that is present in this list. If you have nothing else besides Hangouts, you will have to find and download an alternative to this messenger yourself. It's best to download apps from trusted directories (Google Play, for example) to avoid infecting your phone with malware. If you are already used to Hangouts and don’t want to bother yourself again, then you can simply turn off the automatic reception of messages.
Other meanings
Some people may be surprised, but the abbreviation MMS is very common and has many different meanings. Now we will share with you other interpretations of this word:
- MMS (Multimission Modular Spacecraft) is a multi-purpose satellite of a block design.
- MMC - wet autogenous grinding mill.
- MMS - mechanized escort bridge.
- MMC - motorized unit.
- MMC - soft magnetic alloys.
- MMC is an intermunicipal court.
- MMS - modeling of mental abilities.
- MMS is a settlement in the Medvezhyegorsk region of Karelia.
- IMS - International Mathematical Union. A worldwide organization created for the cooperation of scientists working in the field of mathematics.
- MMC - International Music Council. An organization under UNESCO, created in Paris in 1949. It consists of 16 international music organizations and music committees from more than 60 countries.
