You need root access. It's a easy way for this here: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=41422

I'm just going to jump in here with one simple noobie suggestion for when fMMS fails to download the picture (I've not long had my phone and never had one I can play around with before ... plus I'm a complete tool when it comes to understanding all your jargon!)

I came here because of said issue, suddenly fMMS stopped working ... then it hit me after trying several things (and thinking "please got don't make me have to learn how to post logs and stuff, it took days to learn how to install fMMS!") that I wasn't connected via contract WAP, I was connected to my work's wireless somehow (despite being back home, weird!).

I changed it back to contract WAP and it works fine again now.

I'm sure this won't work for everyone, just throwing a bone to the people who are a new to this as I am lol

Could it be that it's a problem with the picture that has been sent to me?

have you checked that you are connected to the correct APN when downloading the mms? I have set 2 up on mine - Tmobile MMS and web n walk - and need to be connected to the MMS one to both download and send...

If you look in frals signature (that is in the end of all his posts), there is a step by step.
You don't need root access to copy from /root/temp

I hope this helped. If not, post back and I will try to help you.

so this is his signature

"Problem with fMMS? Run in x-terminal: cp /tmp/fmms.log /home/user/MyDocs/
After that you'll see fmms.log in filemanager or when you connect the device to your desktop as a mass storage device.
E-mail the log to me, if you don't have the email address, drop me a PM. Thanks"

How do i run "cp /tmp/fmms.log /home/user/MyDocs/" in x-terminal?
does it mean to simply open the xterminal application and type in "cp /tmp/fmms.log /home/user/MyDocs/"

yes

, if it does not work, try to install rootsh and run "sudo gainroot" before you input cp /tmp/fmms.log

Feature suggestion:

Swipe left/right for next/previous message from the message view window. I realise this is probably a non-trivial addition and it is far from being a critical feature but it would improve somewhat the application's usability as well as bring it in line with other Maemo 5 applications like the Photo viewer.

Anyone know the maximum size of an image allowed for T-mobile USA? 300 width is way too small to view.
