T-Mobile Max attachments?

[CharismaticNerd]

When I go to send an MMS I can only send 2 pictures per message, but with straight talk I could send like 4 a message, so is there something I should edit in order to gain more max attachments?

Really?

Wow I just tried it and you're right it maxes at 2. I never noticed before because most people I text have iMessage. This is pretty strange. I remember when I had AT&T I could attach like 5 pictures. Wonder what's causing this.

Nothing you can edit on the phone itself, its a carrier restriction on their end.

For the two who tried, which T-Mobile services do y'all have?

The restriction comes from the 14.1 carrier update that added support for T-Mobile. There is no way around this restriction unless you jailbreak or don't update your carrier file.

Ah man thank for that that's irritating! Why would they do that?

Probably to keep the size of messages sent at a certain level. Just send extra messages. They're unlimited after all. It's not really that inconvenient.

I mean I guess it's more work but just send them separately. AT&T restricts me at 9. I rarely send more than 2+ at the same time anyways.

I only send 2 at a time anyways, because I can't stand getting 4-6 pics at once. I don't know why, but it bugs me.

You have to use a custom carrier bundle that changes this setting.
