The phone can do it, but your provider might have specific MMS configuration. So check the setting with your provider.

Yeah just pop your SIM card (go phone sim) and you can use virtually any messaging device

You should be able to. I sent pics via bluetooth to a phone that had it also. call consumer cellular -most of the time you get someone who knows their stuff.

I am sorry you can't receive picture message,I don't use this phone anymore cause I live in new york its to cool so the network doesn't work .but before it used to work very well I can't receive picture message.

Well you can only send and receive picture msgs with data thats how that works, because thats the only way to send a MMS msg. But to get internet you can use wi-fi and download an application that lets you send pic messages through it. There are plenty. but directly you need data of course just like every other smartphone.

Yes. Definitely something you want if you take pictures and want to send them. The phone needs the extra memory space to send the picture message.

I bought this phone for my daughter and she is having the same issue. We got her a card but she still cannot send or receive pictures. The cars did allow her to take pictures though. Sorry I wish I could help.

I found this phone works really well with metro pcs, but my picture messages have never worked. My friend also had the same problem with his picture messages on his international phone. Other than that it's a great phone and it will work in other countries if I needed it too.

you can...................but the phone has a poor camera system and you have to get a micro sim card.

Gary,Were you able to find a phone which shows number of messages?We are in the same boat, this is the only reason we have not bought thisphone yet. I am looking for a similar Panasonic model with thatcapability.Thanks,junaid

There is no camera on this phone so you wouldn't need to, nor would you use this phone with a data plan so you probably wouldn't be receiving photos sent from others either. It's just a basic phone which is fine for calls and old school for texting, (no qwerty keyboard).

Hello, If the phone is unlocked it should be able to be used on T-mobile's network. I cannot answer whether you would be able to use picture messaging or the internet on the phone on t-mobile's network, as sometimes those features become dormant or non-usable when using a phone on a different network then the one it was originally set up for. I hope this helps.

I believe you can send text messages. The phone purchased was not for me, however, I don't see a reason as to why it would not be able to.

I love the phone but very disappointed that I cannot send multimedia messages. Video's, pix etc
