Internet and MMS settings
To access the internet, or send multimedia messages without Wi-Fi, you need a
mobile data connection with correct internet and Multimedia Messaging Service
(MMS) settings. Here are some tips:
•
For most mobile networks and operators, these settings come pre-installed on your
device so you can start using the internet and sending multimedia messages right
away.
•
You can manually check for updates to the internet and MMS settings. If you change
or delete an internet or MMS setting by mistake, download the internet and MMS
settings again.
•
Refer to troubleshooting tips for your device at
www.sonymobile.com/support/
for
network coverage, mobile data, and MMS issues.
•
If the Battery time preferred setting of 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.
•
If you are sharing a device with multiple users, only the owner, that is, the primary
user, can download internet and messaging settings from the Settings menu, but the
downloaded settings are applicable to all users.

or Wi-Fi network connections. Move to an open location free from obstructions or get close to
a window and then try again.
