Get MMS on your iPhone TODAY

[Channan]

First of all guys, you're mocking him WITHOUT A SINGLE REASON! This is the latest method with a new file and some new technique to enable MMS on your 3G/ 3GS, updated to 3.1 and works even with iTunes 9.0! Please do some research before being rude to someone...

I don't think anyone was mocking him.

While it was nice of him to post it again for those who haven't got it working by now, it still is old news. I used this to activate MMS back in August.

I just put my SIM into my old RAZR V3 and it shows "My Number Is XXXXXXXXXX" and then a quick pop-up says "Registering," then the phone reboots. This will loop until I remove the phone from the charger; phone's been without power since I got my 3G last september.

Thoughts?

[EDIT] Oh, and when I go to send a message with something typed into the Subject field, it fails, long before an image would fail to send; it's almost immediately.

Sorry...didn't realize you could disable the Subject line; found out after digging through Settings for a bit.

Any instructions for Windows?

[iphonefreakify]

you should just delete this thread. it's been made already enough times...

you keep posting old news for some reason

your other thread about "Free calling" was news over a 1.5 months old

this MMS enabling thing is news from months ago that has been posted to death already

I didn't knew about it, so stop it, not everyone is always searching/surfing everywhere on the internet.

i really need a 3g wtf..lol..it took me 3 years to own a 2g so who knows how long this is going to take

[Dramer77]

Yeah, ive been doing this for like 3 months now. If you do those steps and it doesnt work, do the media net trick, i heard they topped disabling the mms once its on the account.

did u download the carrier file he has listed? its not the same one that has been floating around for the past 3 months.. its a 5.1 carrier.. i just did this right before my last post and my MMS is working pefect.. ive sent and recived pic messages to my wife on her Xenon... id suggest Download the carrier listed in this post and trying that..

i've never even heard of this method and it can't be that old since it supports iTunes 9. But i did know of the carrier update file. I had already downloaded iTunes 8.2.10 and updated my 3GS with the carrier file. I left that verison of iTunes on my windows bootcamp partition.

There's no reason for people to be rude and say he's posting old news since some people might not have heard of this method with terminal...like me. So if you've already heard of this method than shut your *** up and ignore the thread..

Any instructions for Windows?

i did it on windows... did u try this method of manually installing a carrier file before? its the same as all the other threads that tell you how to do this.. except the carrier file listed in this thread is a new updated one...

[drivevdub05]

so does this fix the problem with receiving blurry pictures with t-mobile?

I'm not sure..does your phone need to be jailbroken for that?

What does the new updated carrier file do? like what changes or updates?

[jamesgrenard]

I'm not getting the "Celullar Data Network" option in my settings when I reboot the phone.

It'd be awesome if there were directions for us Windows users instead of just Mac.

[JHoffy1]

I did the terminal command. I went to do the carrier update, but since I have not updated to 3.1 yet, my button in iTunes says "Update" instead of "Check for Update." When I opt-click the "Update" button, I can navigate to the ippc file in my downloads, but it will not let me choose it. It is grey'd out. Any suggestions?

Thanks in Advance

Go to the article at CultOfMac. At the bottom of the article, they cite their reference as GearLive. They have Windows instructions. Go there.

I did and got

CProgram Files\iTunes\iTunes.exe

CProgram' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Just downloaded the carrier settings and applied it. Didnt have to do anything except update the carrier settings in Win Vista running iTunes 8.2.010. Worked perfectly.
