texting pictures on cell phone?
I just bought a pantech matrix, i love it it's a nice phone but that's not the issue. When people text me their pictures and I press retrieve it says download has failed. What's wrong with it? Do i need to set up something? Why doesn't it work?

Mines doing it too!! I JUST bought a Samsung Gravity. I can't retrieve my pictures and I can't send them either! Ugh! And I have picture messaging on my phone plan.

The majority of older cell phones don't have the ability to send MMS (Multi-Media Messaging Service).

Are you able to connect to media net through the phone normally? If you can you should be receiving them. If not you should take it to AT&T. You may need a certain plan as well...

try taking the battery out and turn it back on. if that doesn't work, go to the closest company store. stupid stuff happens to my phone all the time. i have verizon. they usually fix it.

you need to go to your phone company and they will tell you whats wrong and fix it or give you a new phone

im guessing that you need to get the picture plan from your cellphone company, you need to call them
