I'm using the GM also, so how did you get the MMS icon on Messages? I downloaded an IPCC file and all I get is tethering?

Tell him to stop pirating and downloading illegal stuff so much.

^+1. I got an email from Charter a few months ago after I tried downloading a pirated movie. Attached to it was an email from the monitoring company advising Charter to terminate my services right away. I won't be doing that again!

I guess the AT&T customer service phone lines will be very busy on June 19th! As soon as 3.0 comes out i want my MMS!

They can't just activate everyone all at once.

I'll try that a day or so once 3.0 comes out. How else will we know when MMS is working on our particular account?

Well, from a programmer's standpoint : I can just setup an alert which automatically adds the tethering plan if I sense a spike in the number of different IP addresses the device is visiting in such short span given its limitations!! Not to mention the huge amount of data (7.2Mbps next year!!)...

And oh, did I say this : they are not manually going to remove the MMS codes, just not practical to start with! A simple Python script should take care of it

Hmmm, there is a way to download those without revealing too much about what you are downloading!

If comcast followed suit, my service should have been alerted a million times for all song/movie downlaods to date!

True. But I just dont want to risk it. My neighborhood is locked to Charter so if I get my services turned off, I can't run to Comcast or any other provider for service.

1. Export DB list to Excel.
2. Sort spreadsheet by iPhoneUser? column and TetherAccount? column.
3. Change all values in OptOutMMS to NO.
4. Save As…
5. Import to DB.

According to my brother?? Could it be that easy? Anyone tired? I am about to do it, so if no one else has I will update...

THX to all.

i dont think it is as easy as you think. not trying to argue but i have been with several carriers that offer tethering packages and have tethered around their packages with no problems.

during this time i also read many many posts on various forums by people getting busted but never once did anyone post that they got busted and only checked their email and surfed the web here and there while at an airport or park etc...

every single post i read the person was grabbing music, getting videos, basically downloading a bunch of stuff.

i occasionally maybe more like rarely need to tether and when i do it is not to get a movie but to get on my email or ICQ for work. my iPhone can use a lot more data in a day than i would use in a month of tethering with my needs. i am usually near a wifi spot or the iphone can do whatever i need.

i only bring this up because it is nothing new and i do not believe that using it on occasion can throw up a red flag as PDANet users on WM phones having been using it for a more than half a decade over many carriers and it is a search to find a post of someone that was punished or discovered and again even harder or impossible to find a smart user that was caught.

just my 2 cents

After loading the updated IPCC file, you need to go to Settings>Gerneral>Network>Cellular Data Network and enter MMS settings under the corresponding header.

Here's a screenie of the setting that I'm using:

So if I signed a new contract with AT&T (transferring from T-Mobile) and got an iPhone on my account would it be reasonable to assume that MMS should work out of the box due to the fact the I wasn't an AT&T customer before the 3.0 upgrade so there was never a need to enable the "Opt Out MMS codes." Just wondering how it will work for brand new customers.

That would make sense, but it's probably best not to make assumptions when it comes to AT&T and their practices concerning the iPhone... lol

i called ATT in the very beginning of 3.0 and had it turned on and my MMS worked for weeks then it stopped one day. my tethering has always worked but these settings did not get my MMS working again

wish it was that easy
