Problems installing applications with MMS Capability

[pmgf_14]

I am not sure if there is an existing thread on this but I really could not find it if there was one.

I am a student currently working on an application which requires sending MMS messages. I tried to install my application to a Nokia 6600 but I'm afraid that I got an error message such as "Authorisation failed". I tried different approaches such as MIDlet signing and stuff but it just doesn't work. The last thing I did was to remove the MMS capability of my whole application and tried installing it again due to frustration and it finally worked. Why is it that I couldn't install my application when I include the following permissions?:

javax.wireless.messaging.mms.receive
javax.wireless.messaging.mms.send
javax.microedition.io.Connector.mms

It is working fine without those three but it is imperative that I can send MMS messages within my application. Any thoughts on what went wrong?

6600 does not support MMS messaging from Java midlets, JSR-205 is required for that. See here for 6600 specs

Oh I see. Thanks hartti. So that would mean that I would only be able to use my application on phones which have JSR-205. But I think only some of the S60 devices have this right? And there is no other way but to change my scope of mobile phones to the ones that have JSR-205?

Correct. The Wireles Messaging API JSR-120 supports sending SMS messages.

MMS messaging is supported in Seres 40 3rd Edition Feature Pack 1 onwards. On S60 side, that is supported on S60 3rd Edition devices.
