none of these worked for me.

Im sorry, but why would you have to have an internet plan to get pic messages,when they are included with unlimited text plan. I can get them on any phone on my plan except my iphone. I know i dont know a lot about the ipone but it would seem like if it was able to get pic messages we wouldnt need to have an internet plan. I know you dont have to have one with swirly.

my 2 cents

Ahhhhh gottcha. You might want to browse through the last few pages of this discussion. Post #598 by Tekwiz will hopefully help you.

What kind of internet service do you have through TMobile? What kind of phone is registered on your account?

As far as I know I still show up to T-Mo as a BB Pearl although I've talked to tier 3 support several times and told them I am using an iPhone. I currently have the 9.99 web2go plan with 19.99 unlimited txt and messages for families.

I have been trying every damn combination of settings, and finally found one that works.

I use TZones for internet. I had ORIGINALLY had my APN set to epc.tmobile.com

In order for MMS to work, I had to use wap.voicestream.com

I tried using a profile to allow me to have different settings for MMS and internet, but that didn't work.

My connection through wap.voicestream.com for internet still uses Edge and I get the same speed I did before. So It doesn't seem to be a problem.

My working setting:

Cellular Data
APN:wap.voicestream.com
Username: (blank)
Password: (blank)

MMS:
APN: (blank)
Username: (blank)
Password: (blank)
MMSC: http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
MMS Proxy:216.155.165.050:8080
MMS Max Message Size: (blank)
MMS UA Prof URL: (blank)

Please try this bundle for MMS and tethering: T-Mobile USA Carrier Bundle.

[StellaCaelum5]

These are what I did for my settings. My tmobile plan ($9.99 web2go unlimited) requires me to use the internet2.voicestream.com APN for my cellular data service. The others tell me I need to request an upgrade when I try to access anything on Safari. This bundle has preset the internet2 APN on data and the wap.voicestream.com APN for MMS (internet2 doesn't work for MMS)

- DOWNLOAD bundle: http://www.modmyi.com/forums/4646031-post724.html (Credit: GRANTMAIER867, also put a epc/wap bundle in the downloads section)
- UNZIP file (Do NOT Change the file name yet)
- Locate "Payload" folder with greyed out "Tmobile_us.bunde" and "310260" icons.
- COMPRESS Payload folder into .zip file
- RENAMe file to "TMobile_US.ipcc"
- Check for hidden extensions using "get info"/ Cmd+I on Mac (Right click in windows and check.. properties, I think? It's been so long since I've been on a PC :-p)
- Go to Itunes 8.2- hold SHIFT(Windows)/OPTION(Mac) and click "Check for Updates"
- Locate renamed .ipcc file and select. (hopefully no error pops up!)
- IMMEDIATELY reboot iphone (hold Power+Home buttons for 10 seconds)
- When the iphone reboots go to:
a) Settings>Messages>MMS Messaging> ON
b) Settings>General>Network>Cellular Data Network

These settings should automatically be filled in. If you make any changes and want to restore to the original bundle settings, click "Reset Settings"!

Cellular Data:
APN: internet2.voicestream.com
User:
Password:

MMS:
APN: wap.voicestream.com
Username:
Password:
MMSC: http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
MMS Proxy: 216.155.165.50:8080
MMS Max Size: 614400 (6kb)

- NOW send a test MMS to yourself! You should have the camera icon in your messaging app. **May take several minutes due to transfer of file. This is normal**


-This walkthrough should work for any bundle. The trick is unzipping the bundle, compressing and renaming to the .ipcc. A weird workaround. Also rebooting the phone INSTANTLY. Some other guides have said to check your settings first and then reboot. I just reboot instantly and find it all works better that way. Hope this helps some people!!

Okay I don't understand. I don't see anything about mms under general<network<cellular data. Am I missing something cuz all I have there is

APN

Reset Settings.

I'm about ready to go back to OS 2 at this rate.

Have you tried the activatemms2g from Cydia yet? It wasnt around when I got my MMS working but a lot of people are saying that it's working for them. You might want to give that a shot and upload a custom ipcc afterwards to get the settings tweaked if you need it. Dont give up!

Smassie is right, grab ActivateMMS2g from Cydia, install it, then re install the ipcc file and it should work fine.

After you've downloaded "activatemms2g" from Cydia, go into Settings>Messages>MMS> Toggle ON. Then when you download the latest TMobile ipcc packet it'll automatically insert the settings. You should be good to go after that. If you check under "File Mods" forum there should be a huge thread by TekWiz that has all the different walkthroughs/guides/file locations.

Are we talking about the 2g here, as in the first iphone that came out? I dont have mms setting under settings-general-network-cellular data network..Mine says: Cellular Data then under that is the APN (wap.voicestream.com) username password (blank) then the bottom reset setting? Im on t-mobile network

[lordoth]

thanks for eveyones responses that ActivateMMS2g thing worked perfectly, now if only I can these darn setting correct.

What kind of internet service do you have through TMobile? What kind of phone is registered on your account?

Hey smassie. Yeah I got it fixed using the first three links in the thread on my signature. I've been sending and receiving picture MMS for the past week or so with perfect quality. Thanks to IronicIrony, Phreak and TekWiz!!
