Hi 

I am unable to receive MMS containing pictures because apparently the APN settings are wrong.  I tried usong the tool on the Vodafone website but the security check wouldnt work; kept telling me the digits I entered were incorrect, when clearly they were OK and I tried about 10 or 12 times.

Can someone tell me how to enter the required settings please?

Phone is Vodafone Smart Ultra 7, running android 6

Hi Mike

Thanks for that info. One question, the item MMS Protocol (WAP 2.0)  does not appear in the list of either the APNs for general data or MMS.  Is this important?

Thanks Geoff H
