Internet and MMS settings

To send multimedia messages, or to access the Internet when there is no available Wi-

Fi® network, you must have a working mobile data connection with the correct Internet

and MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) settings. Here are some tips:

For most mobile networks and operators, Internet and MMS settings come pre-installed

on your device. You can then start using the Internet and send multimedia messages

right away.

In some cases, you get the option to download Internet and MMS settings the first time

you turn on your device when a SIM card is inserted. It is also possible to download

these settings later from the Settings menu.

You can manually add, change or delete Internet and MMS settings on your device at

any time. If you change or delete an Internet or MMS setting by mistake, download the

Internet and MMS settings again.

If you cannot access the Internet over a mobile network or if multimedia messaging is not

working, even though the Internet and MMS settings have been downloaded

successfully to your device, refer to the troubleshooting tips for your device at

www.sonymobile.com/support/

for network coverage, mobile data, and MMS issues.

If 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. For more information, see

STAMINA mode feature overview

on page 115 .
