you need to install supreme preferences 3.0 from the xsellize repo.

Running a 3GS on T-Mobile with the 4.0.1 FW and your original post worked great!! I had to figure out how to SSH though, lol. I used winscp after getting OpenSSh and SBSettings from Cydia.

Thanx for the post!!!

Oh and PS, all I used to open the plist file was Notepad

[kvizzel]

sweet!!!

it works, followed the first post!

everything works perfectly fine.

3G iOS 4

AWESOME. Its like I have a new phone.

has anyone else had problems with installing supreme preferences 3.0?
last time i installed it to get the cellular data network tab it made my facetime toggle disappear.
and also the default ATT settings in the MMS fields kept reverting back to the same original settings everytime i backspaced.

has anyone else had these problems with supreme preferences?
i just restored/rejailbroke/and reunlocked my iphone on tmobile to get rid of this problem, but i still need to get the celluar network tab up.
im just afraid to install SP3.0 again

Hello, new guy here.
I performed the mod on the "com.apple.mms_override.plist" file as stated and it works great except after several hours the entries for the Cellular Data APN and the MMS APN disappear. I can put them back but they just disappear again in few hours and mms messaging will stop receiving. Is it possible to add them to the "com.apple.mms_override.plist" file so they might stay in place?
Thanks

[wyvon54]

Thanks for this!!! After 2 weeks of setting and re-setting my iPhone settings, downloading this and uploading that, talking to T-Mobile and general frustration THIS WORKED! I finally bit the bullet and opened the SSH files and followed the instructions!!! IT WORKED!!! Thanks so-o-o-o-o much!

**After doing this I could not get pictures on my email account so I changed the APN to epc.tmobile.com and now both work great**

My advise is "don't be afraid of using the OpenSSH program (I was) it's easier that you think."

[tommy94]

Glad this helped..

I have a 3GS old bootrom and also a 3Gs new bootroom JB with Pwnage 4.0 and unlocked with ultrasn0w 1.1-1 and I have managed to fix my Incoming MMS
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<(this also works with iPhone3G, iPhone4 and also if u jailbreake with redsn0w , jailbreakme.com or Sn0wbreeze)>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

NOTE:,,,,,Every one should do a restore and NOT an UPDATE to iOS 4.0.1 and legally Activate there iPhone through iTunes b4 jailbreaking , all u need is an At@t or singular Sim card, the Sim card doesn't need to have service
Just keep the At&t or Singular Sim card inside ur iPhone during the Restore Process And once restore is complete, keep the iphone connected to ur comp untill iTunes detect ur iPhone. Once is detected it will activate your iPhone even if the Sim card has no Service
Once your are ready to jailbreak your iPhone with Resn0w, Pwnage tool or Sn0wbreeze Just make sure that you uncheck the option to ACTIVATE UR IPHONE
If you use Jailbreakme.com to jailbreak ur iPhone then you don't have to worry about the ACTIVATION option as there is no ACTIVATION option in jailbreakme.com

If you do that way, it'll better cause Push notification will work just perfect and if you Hacktivate instead then Push Notification WILL NOT WORK

WARNING: AS OFF 08/22/2010 iOS 4.0.2 CAN NOT BE JAILBROKEN SO MAKE SURE YOU RESTORE UR IPHONE TO iOS 4.0.1 ONLY

1:_SSH in to your iPhone then navigate to

/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/

inside the Preferences folder you'll need to find a file call "com.apple.mms_override.plist"

2:_Download that file in to your computer and open it with any text editor software
You need to delete everything there and paste this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>MMS</key>
<dict>
<key>GroupModeEnabled</key>
<false/>
<key>MMSC</key>
<string>http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc</string>
<key>MaxMessageSize</key>
<integer>1048576</integer>
<key>MaxRecipients</key>
<integer>10</integer>
<key>MaxVideoBitrate</key>
<integer>131072</integer>
<key>Proxy</key>

<key>UserAgent</key>
<string>SonyEricssonW800i/R1L</string>
</dict>
</dict>
</plist>

3:_Save the file with out renaming the original name
and upload it back to you iphone in the same place

/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/

You'll will need to override "replace" the original file that is in there

4:_Then Rebooted your iPhone an mms incoming and outgoing will work just perfect

UPDATE #1


After Rebooting your phone Open Settings and go to General/Network/Cellular Data Network/ and make sure you have this same settings "if not" then just add it

Cellular Data

Apn: internet2.voicestream.com
Username:
Password:

Mms

Apn: epc.tmobile.com
Username:
Password:
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS Proxy: 216.155.165.50:8080
MMS Max Message Size: 1048576
MMS UA Prof URL: http://www.apple.com/mms/uaprof.rdf


And reboot your phone one more time





I hope this can help every one with the same problem I was having with the incoming mms

Thanks

No matter what I do whether your settings here or using the ones provided in TMobiles support the settings wont stay. I get things working and things are great for a little bit and then some or all of them go away?

How do I get them to stay?

I am 3gs running 4.0.1 and I used Jailbreakme.com and UltraSn0w

[aalu91]

I don't have a data plan for my iphone 3gs....

I tried this method, and left the cellular data and data roaming ON even though I don't have a data plan, and then I sent a mms to myself. The bar goes near the end but stops there and has been there for 10 minutes and hasn't done anything...

Is this a problem with me not having a data plan, or something else? If anyone has had this problem before let me know thanks

[rivryan]

original post worked perfectly for me! thanks a lot! now my iphone is perfect
