Default Unlocked RIZR.

So, I've been frantically searching the web looking for help with my dilemma. I've recently bought a black, unlocked Motorola RIZR. And bascially, I just wanted to know if I could lock it back to T-Mobile or somehow get the T-Mobile software on my handset.

Because with it being unlocked, I can't send or receive picture messages and I'm not happy with it, pretty much. I've gotten t-zones but I don't really need that anyway.
I've tried using the data configurator on the T-Mobile website but it's not help. It says something about maximum something exceeded and it cannot add another MMS server profile.

You should be able to delete some of the preset MMS profiles.

Youre gonna have to use a P2k app to delete the Websessions file, and replace with the T-Mo WS, either OTA or by again using a P2K app. You may or may not run into other problems using an unlocked phone, there are some downloads and guides here that will help you out. It will seem a little intimidating at first, but with some preliminary reading and questioning, you and your phone will be fine

Alright, thanks. I'll try that.

Now is there any way I can get the T-Mobile software on my phone? :/

Sure, just flash it on, one caveat - you may be happier with unbranded FW
Either way, give it a shot

in my previous link, look for the button that says "guides". They are well written and easy to understand for the most part

yeah i agree having an unlocked/unbranded fone is the better way to go, and the link to the guides that milkbone98 gave u are really good.
