Wow, I've searched around a lot and can't believe that no one else is asking this.. or blame it on my searching skills..
Anyways.. for all you guys out there... All these 3 new phones don't have an option to send picture messages... (the .ota stuff). If you receive a picture message, you can forward it but u can't do anything with a stored picture message or even store a new one you've got..
Is there any software that allows me to overcome this limitation?
Photosms allowed me to send picture messages in 6600 so i happily bought a 6680 thinking i'll use the same software but now it tells me that the functionality is not supported! :confused:
I know it's high time ppl moved on to MMS but it's expensive in our part of the world and not everyone has it.. and picture messages are cute in their own way (just like you sometimes want to apply a special filter to an image and view it in black n white)
Any help will be greatly appreciated...

tht's strange,i don't possess any of these else i would've tried it.
for storing the picture messages which u've recieved, try some file explorer like FExplorer

Well it's not just 6680.. it's 6630 and 6681 as well... so don't call off ur plans.. I'm assuming the N series won't be having it either.. Nokia is playing into the hands of service providers.. this is a sure shot way of pushing MMS...
However i can forward picture messages that i received...

Nah.. Fexplore won't work.. if it did.. i would have used it to replace the ota file in an existing picture message and send it off.. but it seems that picture messages in inbox contain the files in the message themselves and not separately.. strange but true.. i don't know how that works... :(
I can't believe that none of the 6630, 6680 users are bothered about this!!!

I have no hope boss..
I called Nokia support.. they told me sir if you don't have the option then u can't do it.. I said if i had the option y would i call you.. they kept repeating the same thing..
They have same support professionals for all phones.. those guys don't even know that we can access c,d and e drive using softwares like fexplore n all..
