AT&T MMS Network Outage Already?
Boy Genius is reporting that AT&T MMS seems to be down for some users in some states, and what's more:
a quick call to AT&T’s customer care line revealed that there is a known latency issue with MMS in all states with no estimated time of repair.
So how about it? Are you experiencing any delays in sending or receiving MMS? Any outages? Either way, let us know where you are, and how long you've been having the problem.

No issues here however I can't say that I'm surprised... I'll stick to e-mail for now
Good in Tampa, Fl
no probs in NW PA.....
No problems sending, but I haven't been able to receive any from any other carrier. iPhone to iPhone is good, but can't receive any from my brother's bberry
We all overloaded the network...... Haahaa
AGAIN...
"Are you experiencing any delays in sending or receiving MMS? Any outages?... let us know where you are, and how long you’ve been having the problem."
He's NOT asking to let us know IT IS working withOUT problems.
No problems in South Florida...works fine here
@fastlane....shut your hole!!!
@fastlane….shut your hole!!!
I updated to the new carrier file this morning and I have not yet been able to successfully send or receive MMS...I am in South Jersey.
I take that back. I sent one 15 minutes ago to another iPhone and they haven't gotten it yet.
Not good in Tampa, Fl
Indianapolis IN works great!!!
carefull mike....you may anger Fastlane!!!!!
Oh and @fastlane - Shut your hole!
@JSuch - oh well, life goes on.
yep...its all good....i just didnt realize fastlane was running this thread?? My bad
Central new York network is real slow. Mms is going threw...
It's all good in Phoenix,AZ!!!
it is not working in Atlanta, GA
How ironic. I'm in southern New Hampshire. I got a text message this afternoon from AT&T that MMS is now available for iPhone users (it's actually been activated for about 4 days for me already).
My son who has Verizon sent me an MMS. I didn't get it (at least not yet- who knows what the delay is). I sent him one and he got it immediately.
Living on Long Island and just returned from milford connecticut today. MMS has been working great all the way from Connecticut to Long Island.
No problems here. Been using it all day, sending and receiving both on and off network, without a hitch. Heck, I'm probably the reason for the latency!
I was sending some to my family last night while in Miami and it was working fine. There is a slight delay, though, which is to be expected compared to SMS. I sent a 34 second video which took significantly longer (a few minutes at the most).
No problems in southern california .
Still have yet to be able to send or recieve here, north of Philly.
Oklahoma - I can send and receive from non-iPhone friends but cannot send nor receive from iPhone friends.
AT&T is proving again that it is shit.
It's taking anywhere from 1-5 minutes to send an mms in Michigan. Sometimes it fails to send at all.
If u still can't send or receive call AT&T. They had to fix something on my account.
@JSuch:
Sorry, I don't fight with children.
@fastlane
If you were more mature, you wouldnt have commented back. Ohio mms and services have just been sluggish
A friend in Philly (I'm in Maryland) just updated his iPhone and sent me a test MMS no problem. I sent one back no problem. This was no more than 30 minutes ago. Network seems fine to me.
im using a 3g with a 1st gen data plan does anyone know if this is a problem i heard mms is not available for the 1st gen iphone but does that mean the hardware only is incompatible
No problems here... I'm in NYC, just got the update this morning.
Nothing yet, get the red exclamation when sending, received 2 with the old "click here and use log-in and password" to see your MMS. Then I received one that just had the file name. All of these from iPhones. When i tried to send one from my wife's LG, it took forever to send and I never saw it. Wichita, KS
@bobbyp:
See comment #30 again.
I got the same message repeated 3 times last night.
I have sent to Verizon and received from Verizon customers, no problems at all in Bowie, Maryland.
iPhone to iPhone seems okay (takes up to 10 or 15min+ sometimes) though my g/f hasn't received a pic from me yet (she's using a Razr). Another friend who's on AT&T with a basic Nokia flip never received anything either.
My sister has an iPhone as well and she never received one of my MMS messages last night.
Overall, I would say it's terrible right now... I'll give it time. I'm located about an hour north of Philly.
New Orleans, LA and I still haven't sent a single MMS (updated around 45 minutes after it was released). Help
Working in Philadelphia area.
@fastlane….shut your hole wang chung!!!
Works great in Cleveland, Ohio
SPRING VALLEY NY NO PROBLEM WITH SENDING OR RECEIVING MMS ATT ROCKS!!!!!!
Sometimes when I send try and send a regular text it fails to go through so I shut down my phone and restarted it again and it worked happend to me 3 times already.
Northeastern PA. is looking good now.
Tested to Verizon, AT&T non-iPhones and Sprint. Sent video, text and video, voice memos and pictures. All sent and received without significant delay. (under 5 minutes.)
I do have an issue with receiving GIFs...the sound comes as a separate attachment. Is this normal?
in central Florida and can send to anyone fine, but have yet to receive from another carrier..
Att's mms has always sucked, before my iPhone i had a blackberry that had mysterious "delays" sending MMS no surprise now my iphone is the same. i got a pic which took about 30 mins to receive from another provider .
Both my girlfriend and I have 3GS's and is has yet to work in Iowa. We were able to update the carrier file just fine but not a single message has gone through yet.
3G jailbroken 3.0.1, 5.0 carrier file, DFW area.
Now sending and receiving almost instantly from all carriers tried.
Should Iphone/Att/Apple compress files before sending mms? Takes 5 minutes or so to send (if not failing] a picture. Some have been received, others lost? Sucks, if not better in a few days, its email for me. Sad excuse for MMS.
A little bit of a delay in Kansas City but it is working
North Carolina Slow Slow Slow, takes forever to send a picture. Is this because i'm on edge, not 3g. Pics taking 30 mins and up to 2 hours. GO ATT !!!!
sent pics to verizon, tmobile,att, boost,sprint ,with no problems, only got one pic sense yesterday(boost mobile)
slow in Kansas City. We duct tape our towers together here in the midwest.

Has never worked yet. Oregon
Red exclamation here in Atlanta.
@ Matt
Everything working fine in Lafayette, LA. Sent one about two hours ago to another iphone. both worked fine.
If it does work R8der4life, it may not be worth using unless your in a 3g area. Edge here and the load time for a picture is aging. LOL Good luck
Mine has never worked...I have a 3gs and whenever I go to send, the bar never goes the whole way over. I just updated my friends (3g) and it works fine.
@JSuch:
carefull mike….you may anger Fastlane!!!!! Sorry, I don’t fight with children.

On Long Island. Have been able to send without a problem. What was interesting is that I have only been able to receive MMS from Verizon users who have a Curve. My sister has the Tour and has been trying to send me pics since yesterday without any luck. Waiting on a MMS message from my sister in law who has an Omnia.
Running smooth in South Texas. No problems at all.
