once all thats in hard rest or just reboot ur iphone and once in comes back on your all set ur mms should be work perfectly !!!! and question or problem dont hesatate to message me or maybe even picture message me lolol jk

Ya sounds expensive just to add mms. All I want to do is add pay per mms. Why would I add more services to my plan and have to pay for that when I'm not using that much of it, isn't it easier for pay per mms. I mean thats another $20 added on top of the iphone data rate of $30 and then if you add in the picture messaging rate plus your normal rate plan your already looking at $20+ more then your normal rate plan. To me it seems easier to add pay pare mms.

The iphone unlimited and the reugular unlimted is the same price

[Poseidon79]

Yeah that's pretty much what I did too... I had to swap my SIM card back and forth between the old phone and my iPhone a few times before the settings stuck though.

[aonavy]

so what do you loose when you do this? visual vm ..right?

[rkisling]

That is the process I followed and it works; although it took many calls to AT&T before they would do it correctly; and it was finally tech support not CS that fixed the problem. Have MMS and Visual Voicemail both working

this has been by far the most frustrating program to get to work...ive tried everything and gotten errors from unexpected http response to proxy failed...if someone could help me out i would appreciate it but ive felt like i wasted my money on this

my os is 2.1 and i bought the full license for 1.2.10

[tadfitz]

I dont have an extra att picture messaging phone laying around is there a way I could set swirlymms up without another phone? or could i barrow a picture messaging phone that already has service with att? and tell them that im gonna be switching back and forth? and if so would it mess up the service for that person who let me barrow their phone? thanks for any help.

Not sure if you have an o2 iphone contract or if that makes a difference but i'm using a jaibroken non iphone o2 contact and it works well for me using:

mmsc.mms.o2.co.uk:8002
193.113.200.19:8080
wap.o2.co.uk
o2wap
password


Goodluck

I got it working my ATT iPhone 3g - Still have visual voicemail, and iphone data plan. No need to keep switching phones or any of that stuff. This works, and has been working for over 2 months now.
Taken from the forums over at SwirlySpace:
(NOTE: ******DO NOT MENTION THE WORDS MMS or Picture messaging*****
If you do, the ATT reps will just bring up the script and start reading to you that iphone is not supported and you will have to call to get another rep!!!)

I did all this without even mentioning the words "iphone", "mms" or "different phone." I just called them and asked immediately to speak to a higher level rep in tech support because "I have a few specific requests on my account" (those are the words I used). In the instructions below I will bold the KEYWORDS to use when speaking to ATT reps. This just takes a bit of proper syntax and genuine politeness.


First off, call 888.892.9760. These are tier level reps who know what they're doing. Second off, make sure you have the rep enable WAP push (There are 2 places in Snooper for them to make the change.) Next, have the rep change your texting plan to a normal non-iphone text plan. (family txt plans on unlimited will work - for non-family this costs the same). Lastly, have them resend your ota's (over-the-air activation) and reset your vlr's (clears the registry). Power cycle your phone and you should be good to go.


Heres the thing, this all depends on the rep you get when you call. The one I got complied like a good little boy with all my commands. But do not be pushy or impolite, just be patient.
IF they ask why you are doing all this, tell them you are troubleshooting an issue Exchange server and you did this before and you got your "issue" working.

Forgot to mention my SwirlyMMS settings:

MMSC: mmsc.cingular.com
Proxy: wireless.cingular.com

Also, here is the link to the Swirly forums where I found all this.

^^^ Thanks! I got it to work!

Anyone get this to work with a first gen iphone? When I called AT&T, they told me that they could not eliminate the iphone text plan. I have the unlimited family plan that includes MMS, but it does not supersede the iphone plan. I don't get charged for going over 200 texts, so it kicks in for that, but I can't eliminate the iphone text (part of the first gen media plan). I have yet to here of anyone who has gotten a first gen iphone to work for more than a couple of days (via switching the sim cards between phones). Anyone out there get different results, or am I just **** out of luck, until I upgrade( not planning to do that until they go 32 gig, or the next gen)

^^I think as long as you have the Family Text plan and WAP Push enabled in both places of "Snooper" you should be okay.

I think "Snooper" is the reason why people find that MMS stops working after a while. ATT scans their network from time to time, and I think if it detects iphones it cuts out MMS capabilities.

Regardless of the iphone text vs family text,
Try calling the number I posted and follow the steps to enable WAP push (there are 2 places the rep has to enable this in their "Snooper" program), reset VLR's and send the OTA. Then do a hard reset and try.

nimavafi, what was the exchange server 'issue' you told them you were troubleshooting?
