How to Enable MMS on iPhone OS 3.1 (AT&T)
Comments

If you get the red "i" when trying to send, AT&T has not removed the block from your account. They are methodically going through and doing this groups at a time, not all at once. Be patient.
Also, if you are not using an iPhone data plan/text plan, that could be cause of the red "i".
My friend could send, I couldn't. Same settings in phone, same methods. Two days later I could send, without making changes. It was that my block hadn't been removed and his had. You can call and ask, but I doubt they'll remove it for you.

Still not working in West Texas, I have changed all of my settings but all I appear to be sending is a blank text which the recipient never gets.

I'm in Houston, this worked like a charm.

with the above instructions i was unsuccessful
but when i added theusername: wap@cingulargprs.com
password: CINGULAR1to the network settings...it worked!

I also had to do the following for my 3GS 32gb 3.1
Double check your MMS settings below the Visual Voicemail settings above to match this (do not enter anything in blank fields):
APN: wap.cingular
Username:
Password:
MMSC: mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: 066.209.011.32
MMS Max Message Size: 614400
MMS UA Prof URL: -
For those of you having issues with the Command window, you need to apply some old school skills. use the "cd.." with out quotes to direct your system back to the C:/ drive. Then use the "cd " command (using a space after cd and then entering the next directory.
cd.. backs up a directory at a time and "cd Frogram Files" will change the directory to Program Files
"cd" means "Change Directory" I had to manually back up to the C:/ prompt and then got to iTunes. Once done, I entered in the remaing command to change the iTunes pref.

I how ever am in Portland Oregon and am having no luck with sending pics. It get 95% and hangs, then fails. I've used WiFi and 3G, both fail. My VVM works fine and I get the weblink to view an image that is sent to me.

to fix visual voice mail go to general/network/cellular data network/visual voicemail and change your apn to acds.voicemail
I found this somewhere on the web and it fixed mine. everything else still works. Now I can mms, tether and use vvm!!

I am in NE Ohio (Cleveland) to be exact. I followed the instructions and it worked on my 3G. I did have to add the wap.cingular to my /network/cellular data network on the MMS section example APN: wap.cingular. All of the other fields were already filled in. I could not send a MMS message until I did that and rebooted my phone.

I can confirm the IPCC file worked with a 3.0 JB Redsnow 3G and a 3.1 JB Pwnage tool 3G. I can also confirm the messages do not work on wifi.

Everything is going great for me until I select the new ipcc file and click "Open" in iTunes. When I do that, it says, "Updating iPhone Carrier Configuration" momentarily, and then it gives me an error message. What am I doing wrong?
-
I don't trust this.

Thanks for the update - works great! So far I've set up 6 iPhones running 3.1 using the update and all work perfectly. Just a couple of tweaks to get it up and running on 3.1
1. After installing go to settings>general>network>cellular data network and enter wap.cingular into the MMS APN
2. restart the phone
3. wait about 10-15 minutes
4. start sending picturesSeems for the 3.1 release you need a combination of options 1 & 2
Happy MMS'ing

Running iphone os 3.0 on jailbroken phone installs fine pictures do not send...also im located in mass.
-
I'm on 3.0 JB still (3GS) and it worked for me. I suspect that by Sep 25th it will work for all (3.1 or 3.0 if you have the carrier bundle changed) as At&t seems to be working on rolling out the MMS for Iphonesz. Just my thought.
-
Reporting back, still no MMS on wifi. Makes perfect sense, no different then having to authenticate with an SMTP sever when you are not on the network.
2 Users above reported this user / pass combination worked, however it did not work on either our 3G 3.1 or 3G 3.0. Looking to confirm MMS settings with ATT friend soon..
-
where do you see this?
-
it wasnt working before, i went into my wireless.att.com account, changed the feature from individual texting to family texting, and then switched it back to individual and it worked!
-
this worked 100%! 3.0.1, grand rapids, mi i have had it working without these settings and it just now stopped. I added these and its working again. Thanks!
-
