Error 30011: MMS Not Supported for This Number or Region

What this error means

Error 30011 means an MMS message couldn't be processed because MMS isn't available for the receiving side.
  • Outbound: the recipient's number or device can't receive MMS.
  • Inbound: incoming MMS isn't supported for your number in that region.

Common causes

  • The recipient's number or device doesn't support MMS, or MMS is turned off on the device.
  • The recipient's carrier doesn't support MMS on that route.
  • The number type doesn't support MMS.
  • MMS isn't supported in the region of the receiving number.
  • The message has an attachment, which requires MMS.

How to fix it

  1. Remove the attachment and send the message as plain SMS.
  2. Share media with a link instead, for example to a file or page.
  3. Ask the recipient to check that MMS is enabled on their phone.
  4. For international contacts, assume MMS may not be available and use links.
  5. If you need to receive media from contacts in a region without MMS support, ask them to email it.
