To use picture messaging, you will need to add a configuration to your phone.

New BT Mobile customers
You will automatically get sent a text message containing the configuration that you'll need to add to your phone so that you can use the BT picture messaging service. This will arrive just one day after you have activated your SIM.

When you get this message select 'save' or 'accept' to transfer the configuration to your handset.

If for any reason you do not pick up this text message, or if you accidentally delete it, call BT Mobile and ask them to re-send the configuration text message.

Existing BT Mobile customers
Call BT Mobile to say that you want to use our picture messaging service on your existing handset, we can make this easy by sending the necessary configuration in a text message.

When you get this message select 'save' or 'accept' to transfer the configuration to your handset.

Activate picture messaging
You activate picture messaging by sending your first picture.

You will only be able to receive a picture message on your handset once you have sent a picture message from your own phone. Until then you will be alerted of any picture messages sent to you, through a text message giving a web address where you can pick up your picture.

To send your activation picture message:

  • Select the MMS (Multimedia Messaging) function on your handset menu
  • Take a picture using your phone's camera function; select an image from your phone's image library; or pick an audio file (recorded on your phone). Alternatively, if you don't yet have a camera attachment and your new phone doesn't yet have any images in its library, just move on to the next point below
  • Write some text (optional)
    Note: If you don't have a picture to send it is important that you still send some text using the MMS function
  • Send your picture and or text message to either a mobile phone or an email address
