Anyone else experiencing a problem when sending a TM (SMS/MMS)n with their cell phone.. Now it seems as though when you take a photo and want to send it in a TM, it takes anywhere from 20 -40 minutes to send.. Does not matter if phone is using wifi, or 4/5G connection. Never had this problem in the past, but do now with both my old phomr or new cell phone (Samsung/Android).. Just asking to see if anyone else has this problem??

No. But I have an iPhone if that matters.

If your using ATT they are "aware"of the problem but do not have a fix. We have used a work around by turning off wifi when sending then turn back on.

Hardly ever send MMS messages but no.
If the tower signal is weak or limited it takes longer
If the network is busy it can take longer to ACK
And with WI-Fi.. add if the Router is over worked (Too many clients doing things like streaming video) is added to the list (Router Signal replaces Tower Signal for Wi-FI)

Now if I sent a picture via Radio (Ham Radio) depending on the resolution (This also affects you) it can take from 1 to 5 minutes.


Home was where I park it. but alas the.
2005 Damon Intruder 377 Alas declared a total loss
after a semi "nicked" it. Still have the radios

Aware of what problem? We have 50 - 60 phones in our company on AT&T, and do not have any stinking problems.


I have a burn barrel in my yard.
