I’ve been having issues sending pictures via text message. Often getting “not sent. Touch to retry”. Tapping doesn’t do anything, messages not sent. The pictures are being sent to an iPhone. I have the resize MMS images set to 1MB (though I don’t personally care about it). ---

Who is your cell provider? Which messaging app are you using? Is it just to one person or different people? Is it just to iPhone or Android users also? ---

I have Mint, using the default messaging app on the Brax3. I think it’s happened to multiple people, but it’s absolutely happening to one specific person who is using iPhone on Verizon. ---

That wouldn’t be a Brax3 phone issue. Possible APN or other mint issue. Here are a couple things that I have found [https://www.mintmobile.com/help/how-to-configure-android-settings/](https://www.mintmobile.com/help/how-to-configure-android-settings/) > **[Reddit - The heart of the internet](https://www.reddit.com/r/mintmobile/comments/17lgsaz/comment/k7ej02w/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)** ---

My phone suddenly started having this issue. It will not send images all of the sudden to any kind of phone to people i have never had issue with before, android or iphone, it doesnt matter. It stopped sending images to anyone and it flashes an error code. ---
