phonebook app does not send sms or voice call

[acrux]

The only option I can find in "phonebook " is the 4dots icon.  Clicking that gives an "import contacts" dialogue and nothing else.  Where does one set MMS options in 'phonebook"?  I can't see any settings option.

Not in Phonebook but in Spacebar - sorry

Re: mmsc settings in spacebar,.  In spacebar, there is a 3dots icon.  After about twenty taps, it opened up with Settings and About.  In settings, I entered Consumer Cellular (uses att network) android settings for the att mmsc network, i.e.,  MMSC -- url,  MMS proxy,  and PORT.   Saving was confusing but just entering back key saved settings.  Took a couple of instances to figure that out.

Then I sent a message and attached a text file to my samsung android phone.  Spacebar said message was sent successfully (no message about unconfigured mmsc this time) along with attached text file.

But, message with attachment was not received on samsung phone.

Will keep messing with mmsc settings unless I hear of any other breakthroughs.

Note: my samsung phone uses consumer cellular sim card and attachments work fine.  Sim card in pinephone was supplied by consumer cellar as a new line purchase so it should work.  Phone calls and simple messages work fine.  No mms yet.

I was having the same problem with MMS not sending but my MMS setting were set correctly. I needed to specify the correct APN settings in the mobile data section of the settings app to get MMS working

Where are the APN settings in pinephone?   I do not find them in "spacebar -> Settings"  or in the main  "Settings" ---> Cellular Networks  --> Sim" app.  Where else to look?

Consumer Cellular has APN settings listing on their site but I can't find a mobile data section to install them in pinephone.
