Here’s what one annoyed Lumia 735 owner has been saying:

Hi, I recently purchased a Lumia 735 that comes originally for Verizon but that after getting an AT&T SIM I am using on this network.Voice is OK, I updated the Internet APN settings and can use Data with no problem but I cannot find the MMS APN settings to input AT&T settings for MMS and group messaging to work.. Tried to install the Access Pointappand it did not work, upgraded toWindows 10Insider and the Access point option does not appear under Settings > Extras… Any ideas on how to turn this setting on ?

If you are not aware how to set the MMS APN, you need to follow these steps – go to Settings, then to Cellular, after that select Add MMS APN. That’s it! However, there might be more annoying problems, as the same user informs:

In Windows Phone 8.1 release 2 after installing the Access Point APP from the store I get a message that theappis for a newer version of the OS but inWindows 10Mobile Insider Preview I cannot find theappat all.

You can go ahead and read more regarding these settings on the officialpage. Furthermore, the guys over at the XDA-Developers forums have come out with a potential fix, so I invite to take a closer look at thisthread.

Speaking of Lumia 735, recent reports suggest thatthis phone model is gone for good. Many online stores no longer display the Lumia 735 as part of their offer. The good news is that you can still purchase it from other retailers, such asAmazon.

The mobile phone segment is almost dead for Microsoft. Unless the company doesn’t blow users away with the rumored Surface Phone, we’ll soon see all theWindows 10phone users migrate to another mobile platform.
