let me know how the manual installation goes !

Just downgrade to 3.0.1

That's what I did.....3.1 doesn't have enough in it to upgrade to. I can't run Snapture anymore but I'd rather have MMS than Snapture.

Did the same thing. You can remove without restoring though.

SSH into your phone and remove it that way. Namely:

$apt-get remove ru.geniusan.mms2g

reboot. Your device should be working again! Now if you don't have any WiFi networks that your phone was set to automatically connect to.... well I can't help ya there!

Any update on a new patch for 3.1?

**vantheman169** · 09-27-2009, 07:18 PM

Yup i just downgraded a few days ago before i even saw this post i knew what i had to do but i just did not want to cuz i did not know about SSH and doing it that way. Meh oh well thanks guys. 3.1 was crap anyways kept freezing "coma mode".

**vantheman169** · 09-28-2009, 12:01 AM

what carrier file are you using. I used this one on a friends iphone and he is on a 32 GB 3Gs AT&T jailbroken 3.0 and his started working before the 25th.

**HOPPERSAN** · 09-28-2009, 12:04 AM

anyone try this method? i'm curious too my friend has a 2G and wants mms enabled but i've tried activatemms on 3.1 and it just gets stuck on apple logo

I hope they fix that soon

**robertguero** · 11-01-2009, 04:37 PM

Yep worked. Little tricky but got it.

CAUTION!!!!!! REALLY READ TO UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING.

I had to shift restore about 3 times before I got it right.

**BoardDWorld** · 11-01-2009, 09:17 PM

I set up a guide here just recently, the removed it! The battery still drains 3 times faster with this patch applied. BE WARNED!

**robertguero** · 11-01-2009, 11:07 PM

Can you explain to me what would make the battery drain because of this patch?

edit:

UPDATE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

iPhone has been off charge since about 8:30am, its now 12hrs later.

Lets see....3 phone calls about 4 minutes each, email checking about every 1hr or so and probably 50 SMS/plain text messages, locating services "ON", bluetooth "OFF".

Battery.....drum roll please.....61%

So where is the battery drain???!!!!???? sounds like it work good to me.

You sir may have a phone issue. There is an artical about Apple looking into battery draw, maybe you should contact them to see if yours has issues.

P.S. also I am in a service fringe area, so every once in a while i get "Searching". Searching takes more power than staying connected, from my understanding. Also my area roams on AT&T so I usually just push it to AT&T this way I have service almost always. All works great for me.

EDIT:

Another UPDATE! !!!!! !!!!! !! ! ! ! ! !

Time now is 2am. Have done many more SMS msgs and received several MMS. have 3 email accounts on phone that update, one updates to the second. Watched about 6 youtube vids. Downloaded several apps from Cydia and Rock. Has not been plugged into computer or wall.

Battery is now at.....31% so what are we at almost 18hrs.

I did not do anything special like delete that file everyone is talking about. I know on 3.0 there was an app you had to down load to turn off some demon, did it on 3.0 but dont remember what it was.

iPhone works well as expected. iPhone 2G 8GB, jb/ul, T-Mo, 3.1.2fw

Sorry, its not the MMS patch that is causing the problem with battery drain.

**Nerologic** · 11-06-2009, 11:46 AM

Where did you guys download the archive for the 3.1 MMS patch on hakint0sh?
