Internet and MMS settings
To access the internet, or send multimedia messages without Wi-Fi, you need a
mobile data connection with correct internet and MMS settings. Here are some
tips:
•
For most mobile networks and operators, these settings come pre-installed on
your device so you can start using the internet and sending multimedia messages
right away.
•
You can manually check for updates to the internet and MMS settings. If you
change or delete an internet or MMS setting by mistake, reset the internet and
MMS settings.
•
If the Battery time preferred setting of STAMINA mode is activated to save power,
all mobile data traffic gets paused when the screen is off. If this causes connection
problems, try excluding some applications and services from being paused, or
deactivate STAMINA mode temporarily.
