iPhone 3GS on Simple mobile mms size issue.

[ewatson660]

Hey guys I finally have my iPhone up and running on simple mobile! Everything is working well with just one issue. On some mms's I get it won't download them and says the mms is to large. 614400 is were my max mms size is. Can I change that to get bigger messages? Thanks guys!

My max size is 1048576, that I got for settings on another forum. I have not had a problem with MMS download size.

[ewatson660]

Ok I'll try that. I'm not receiving any mms now.

[pimpinmex803]

add http://beta.leimobile.com/repo/ in cydia and it will have the mms fix for simple mobile and tmobile.

[ewatson660]

Well I'm a bit confused. It works sometimes! But if I reboot it will stop working or I'll get the mms a day later... This is very odd! It's still sending them perfectly.

if you add the cydia source i put in the last post and then reboot and that still doesnt work reset network settings and make sure you have simple in the apn settings. this is my settings in my phone and it works perfect every time.

cellular data
apn: Simple

I have those same settings and am also having the issue with receiving MMS not sending them, I can send them fine. I called Simple Mobile tech support and the rep I spoke to had me verify the settings, had me read what was in the APN and MMSC (which is the same as what you posted). After I finish reading it to him he tells me to hold on and then says that receiving MMS is not supported with them. WTF? I knew that was BS because some people aren't having issues with it, not to mention I had my friend test it out and I didn't get the MMS right away but I did end up receiving it at like 3am the next morning Lol. Anybody know how to get it working properly?

did you input these settings or did you use the repo i had put in the post. these settings should only work on 4.0 firmware. it worked with my baseband witch is 05.13.04 if anything you should reset all network settings and try again.

[vivianm]

Yes I tried the repo from Cydia, but I'll try restoring the network settings.

I have a ip 3gs 4.0.1 how did you get it to work on Simplemobile and use the web. I have only vpn and not apn.

[pimpinmex803]

you have to go into settings>general>network>cellular data network
enter simple in the apn setting

[bajobajo]

you have to go into settings>general>network>cellular data network
enter simple in the apn setting

I only have two choices for cellular data "On" or "Off".
General->Network->(Enable 3G on/off, Cellular Data on/off, Data Roaming on/off, VPN (not connected)->VPN on/off, add VPN connection->Description, Server, Account, RSA SecurID, Password, Secret, Send All Traffic,,Proxy (off/manual/auto)
...Wifi on/off

no APN

[pimpinmex803]

the only thing that would work is going into cydia search for apn editing. install and reboot. if that dont bring it up then you need to reinstall 4.0.1 in itunes and rejailbreak. i have an iphone 3g with the firmware and it was there already. hope it helps. please let me know how it goes

[bajobajo]

Pimpinmex803 you're the man.
I tried downloading the apn editing as suggested but got an error twice and canceled the download twice. However I checked my network setting and lo and behold I got an extra field "Cellular Data Network" right below "Cellular Data". Fill out the proper info and I got internet.
Many, many thanks.

[ewatson660]

well i got it working well now. BUT if i even think about screwing with it it will stop working so i dont even go into my settings anymore. im just happy she is working for now.

[pimpinmex803]

im glad everything worked out.

[exNavy]

you have to go into settings>general>network>cellular data network
enter simple in the apn setting

And if that option isn't there then what?

[pimpinmex803]

U have to download apn editing in cydia then you will have that option.
