It appears that others have already published their programs/scripts for working with MMS and some are now working on better implementations. Thought I would share mine anyway in case it helps somehow.

Script:
https://gitlab.com/antiX-Dave/mms-download/-/blob/master/mms-download

It will need / should have installed curl, recoverjpeg, libnotify-bin, sox
apt install curl recoverjpeg libnotify-bin sox

You will need to modify the variables in the script at least to show your service providers mms proxy and mms proxy port

I also have this running on a cron job every 5 minutes.
For this you also need to install cron
apt install --no-install-recommends cron


A couple others I have noticed working on mms when looking where to post this

So then I continue to check and see if i have any large sms that usually means someone sent me a mms without me knowing.  Literally, within the same hour, with sudo mmcli -i 6 , I get the error message that there is no SIM found.  OK, so I did another sudo mmcli -L , and what do you know, it is now 7, not 6.

Not 100% sure but it sounds like your modem is improperly power cycling and the kernel is seeing it as a new device every time the modem power cycles without seeing the "old" one turning off. Maybe this is a bug when you are toggling mobile service/data on and off? Mine is consistently 0.

If that is the case maybe the script needs to check for the modem over a sequence from 0-10?

But, I've forgotten to add the mandatory package . I've some phone numbers but nothing else, and now nothing to try the script.

I would know how to send a MMS with the Pinephone and Mobian.
