Hack to Enable MMS on iPhone OS 3.0
The non-availability of tethering and MMS features in the U.S at the time of the launch of iPhone OS 3.0 was probably the most disappointing news that was announced at the WWDC 2009 Keynote address. Some folks had figured out a simple hack to enable tethering on iPhone OS 3.0...

How can MMS for Tmobile users be enabled?
-
My question for the tether and MMS hacks is; can att see that we are using these carrier setting hacks or does it all look like regular data being sent via the unlimited data plan?
-
BS!
Doesn't work for 2g!?
We're getting raped. Does anyone know if Swirly MMS works? I've tried to get it to work before but the att tech didn't want to change the wap settings. They acted as if they had no idea what it was I was talking about.
.. ugh

this doesnt work anymore i did it a while ago and at&t blocked it now

i have tried this with swirlyMMS as well it will work until AT&T sees the iphone log back in then they remove it again i have been fighting this battle with them for a long time. when u hook up the iphone the system sees it and somehow flags it. if you go to your online account you can see which phone is hooked to which number. i have 3 phones on my account and it shows which phone is on what number. MMS works 3 to 7 days before they remove it again. I had AT&T enable it on the system a few times but it gets kicked off after a few days as well. How Mad am i paid for swirlymms had it working then the a**holes at AT&T shut it down

THIS DOES NOT WORK WITH 3GS.... JUST NEED ULTRASNOW ...COMMON DEV TEAM

= iFail with the 3G S
-
I waited until Saturday to upgrade my 3G to my new 32gb 3GS. Walked into apple and was out the front door actvated in 45 minutes no problems at all!!
-
Frank,
Sorry to hear this. I would like to hear more info regarding this. Any others having this problem. This is one reason, I didn't purchase swirly because I felt it deep down, that Apple was going to release a new iPhone, and only that one would have MMS forcing people to buy it.
I would like to attempt this but don't want to lose visual voice. Anyone here lose that?
-
Where does it say Ultrasnow will work on the 3GS
-
If Visual Voicemail breaks when enabling tethering or MMS, do this:
Go to Settings – General – Network – Cellular Data Network
Under Visual Voicemail
Change APN to acds.voicemail
Leave username and password blank
Restart your phone. -
Mine has been working for a few weeks now. Yes I have been running the GM 3.0.

According to an AT&T rep i spoke to shortly after reading this they are on top of this hack already. if you have MMS enabled then begin using your iPhone it will be disabled after a few messages. This is what happened to me and i called AT&T asking to have MMS added to my RAZR and i asked them why it stopped working and they told me its because after enabling it i had switched to my iphone. GRRR I want my MMS!!
-
whenever i try to send a picture i always lose my signal and the iphone 3gs says "Searching..."
-
I dont get whats the big fucking deal with iphone users having MMS ?? At first I thought they just hadnt created the app for it but its completely obvious that bullshit is afoot.
I for one will be minimizing my at&t plan down to the bone and going with tmobile as soon as ultrasnow etc work on the 3gs..
EAT MY **** AT&T !!!!!!
-
HUMMM think maybe the phone is to much for there system and if we are MMSing there system may CRASH.
-
Thanks for all the hard work folks. I hate to tell you that, at least for me and my 1st Gen, ipcc is greyed out for selection in step "4. Select the IPCC you downloaded earlier." Any ideas?
-
Sorry Swiftwiter this hack is to do what AT&T didn't and enable mms on iPhone just like they will in a few months not an unofficial app and as Apple said in March, Mms just won't work on the first gen even with 3.0 and activation from AT&T their reason was the atenna wasn't strong enough and won't be available that's why I'm pretty sure this file is just for the 3g and 3gs and also why it's greyed out so you don't give it a bad file. If you ask me it's just a trick to get you to buy a new iPhone seeing as how swirly mms works, so I suggest getting that if you really need it.
This is just what I assume from the available facts correct me if I'm wrong.
-
i have never had that problem, I have had swirly since I first got my 3g iphone and never had to call AT&T to get it to work
-
there are tons of other phones like blackberry's and stuff that have mms messaging way more of them then iphones so if there not crashing the system then theres no way the iphone should its just bs reason to control us and what we have and to be thankful to them when they throw us a bone
-
This works on my locked iPhone 3G with ATT service. I have the family unlimited messaging. I did not have to put my SIM card in another phone for it to work. I just updated the ipcc file and rebooted my phone. I'll report back if for some reason it stops working. My visual voicemail works as well.

Once again the unholy union of Apple/AT&T has reduced those who adopted early into curling up in the corner and wishing for a grand easter egg to fix their woes.
I wanted to use/buy SwirlyMMS but could not get it to load. That's why I had hopes that this new option might work.
Since Apple is now down to making incremental changes in the iphone, I think I will be waiting to see what comes out next and to see if this union falls apart. The ad hoc nickel and dimming of their customers has left me, and many other, disenchanted, disenfranchised and disillusioned with the great iphone hope that was two years ago. And now, no tethering in the US unless you use PDAnet or the like.
Hope springs eternal. I feel a little guilty blathering on about this while people in Iran are dying right now. I think I will refocus for the rest of the night. Peace to all and thanks for your help.
