USB Tethering Working on iPhone 3.0

[flippin360]

@flippin360

Hey, thanks for the sample code. I incorporated some of your work with some of my own. Let me know if this gets things running for you. I had different info about Fido's MMS information, and a different approach to the tethering APN.

Cheers!

I tried it just now but the Tethering menu is not there don't know why. MMS gave an error just like mine did.. everything else works fine.

[suprnowa]

Please give me "Orange_Pl.ipcc" version 5.0 with tethering
I pay 10$ for this file it work/s:)

apn = internet
password = ppp
username = ppp

Thanks. I'll refer back to your original then and see what I can do about fixing the tethering.

[dalvin200]

I've got MMS working on O2-UK but i can't get Tethering working via either Bluetooth or USB

O2-UK...
i can send mms fine... can't receive mms though.. i get the standard o2 message saying view it on the webpage using pincode..

tethering via BT or USB doesn't work for me either... menu appears but just cant get it to work... oh well..

[Leootje]

Rename attached file to .ipcc extension and you're done.

I think that Netshare has worked well for me. Certainly a cabled option would work even better.

The coverage on o2 is not that bad. Not unbelievable good, but not too bad.

[flippin360]

So the Tethering option is there 3G data works but I can't get it to work on my computer..

Bluetooth pairs but says too many connection when I try to connect to iphone (common error on this board) and I don't get how to use USB... when I'm in System Preferences and Network I don't see iPhone in there.

[jamesnajera]

AT&T - USA (For tethering)

Edited, tested and working, Fairfield count - CT/NY area.

Tried it, but it removes MMS option from messages.

[neverbuyapc]

Couple of questions. How will you be able to access this? Has anybody tried this yet? Are the fees extra? Why not use the other methods (from jailbreaking)?

[stormj]

Netshare what ?...

Pdanet is miles ahead of the competition.

Except they got greedy and charged a lot for a jailbroken app, and, did they ever get it so that the battery could charge while using it? That makes it useless for long car trips.

[scrutman]

so I started off at a naked 3.0 and wanted tethering so updated carrier settings for rogers with a file from the net. I decided to locate specific info to add MMS capability and successfully got the little camera icon now showing up when sending a text (to add pics and such).

attached is the file I used however I cannot successfully send or receive MMS's...

anyone wanna take a look at the file and see what needs to be updated please. I would greatly appreciate it. Any updates, please reply with an updated carrier .ipcc file.

just rename the .zip into .ipcc and upload it thru itunes

I've had no luck getting MMS working with Rogers (i've tried a ton of different settings, including the ones you posted :() I also can't get tethering to work on my unibody macbook over bluetooth or USB in leopard but it does work fine over bluetooth when I boot into Windows 7

i used the O2 ipcc file (http://twitter.com/timmeh/status/1351833678) which also has tethering... make sure you prop them up as a lot of work went into it :)

after its applied, you must reboot your phone before you can see the photo icon in a sms message...

i can't receive mms though.. i get the standard o2 message with web address and pin...
reckon it's something o2 just have to activate on their end..

I have work ipcc Orange_pl. 5.0

Bluetooth tethering only works with older BT chipsets. You will not be able to get BT working just now if you have a relatively new Mac. USB tethering works, but only if you install the 3.0 SDK on your computer.

use at your own risk! i dont take responsibility if you get a high bill or anything..

edit: updated the ipcc again.. the second apn was not even needed..

Thanks!

Got it installed. When I clicked on setup tethering, I get an error to please contact T-Mobile to enable tethering on this account. Is there another version of this flie out for T-Mobile Germany?

***UPDATE*** This T-Mobile file also breaks 3G for Germany!

[jb60606]

this would be nice. On top of my iPhone plan, I'm paying an extra $70 a month for Verizon Wireless mobile broadband for work.

I only use it for email, Windows Remote Desktop and SSH, so the 5GB a month that Verizon charges me is total overkill. I've never even come close to exceeding 1GB in a month.

[dalvin200]

i can receive mms, have you had mms enabled on your account? I had to tell o2 I was using a nokia n95 to get this done, had to be passed to second line.

oh right.. so you actually called them?.. i haven't done that yet...
were they arsy about it.. i mean.. they know you have an iphone.. so...

[cybersystem]

I've finally created a T-Mobile Germany ipcc which enables tethering as well as MMS sending..

the ipcc uses internet.t-mobile as it's APN.. as far as i know you can only use this APN if you made your t-mobile complete contract on or after july 11, 2008.. if you are unsure whether or not you can use this APN call t-mobile first and ask.. i WILL NOT take responsibility for bricked iPhones and/or high bills.. use at your own risk!

1. download http://www.cybersystem.de/TMobile_Germany.ipcc
2. alt click update in itunes, choose the ipcc file
3. restart your iphone.. otherwise mms wont work...

[MikeNemat]

How did you get it to work in Windows?

I paired with the iPhone and it added it into my list of Bluetooth Devices, I right clicked on it and clicked Join Personal Area Network, and it just...worked, which is more than I can say for OS X.

cheers well i used that icpp and have tethering working and i see the camera icon but cant send mms messages :( oh well will maybe phone up o2 and see if they can activate anything so i can send mms cause i even tried to send a group text messages and that failed on account of it being a group mms for some reason :S cheers for the help tho

[suprnowa]

What it/s "sms_validity_period"?
What number is for my orange_pl?

[nitemorph]

Something I noticed on Orange.ro after hacking the ipcc and messing around with MMS is that the images taken by the iPhone camera cannot be sent as MMS, but smaller ones are ok (eg: some pic saved from Safari).

IMO, the MMS app does not resize the iPhone camera images which are rather large (~600KB) which makes the MMS probably be rejected by the operator.

[suprnowa]

So "sms_validity_period" is a maximum size of send mms?

[rcknight]

I've just used the ipcc listed in this thread on o2 uk, tethering and mms options become avaliable on the phone but trying to send an mms results in an error.

Since people in this thread have reported mms working with that ipcc can one of you guys tell me were there any special steps you took to get it working?

Thanks

Can you share the settings you used for mms?
(I currently use mms_proxy 62.217.247.252 / mms_proxy_port 80 / mmsc http://wap.mms.orange.ro:8002)
Tethering works well on orange.ro.

Thank you!

i can receive mms, have you had mms enabled on your account? I had to tell o2 I was using a nokia n95 to get this done, had to be passed to second line.

I just did the same as this and can now send and receive mms, however the ones i receive are absolutely terrible quality ... did you get the same as this?

Hey there, Anybody got tethering to work in Austria with T-Mobile ? I hooked up my iPhone to the iPhone Enterprise Utility to check out the Console and that is what it is saying when I open the Network Preferences.

Fri Mar 20 19:04:31 unknown misd[93] <Notice>: CommCenter is not ready (got -2 for traffic); waiting 1 more second(s)
Fri Mar 20 19:04:32 unknown CommCenter[33] <Notice>: Settings not yet available
Fri Mar 20 19:04:36 unknown misd[93] <Error>: gave up asking CommCenter for traffic context ID after 5 seconds (got -2)


Anybody any Idea ? I tried to modify the settings for Germany my settings are attached.

Thanks for any replies.

[MacFly123]

Does AT&T not wanna make more money? They have had long enough to get this working geeze! :rolleyes:

[dylanreich]

Has anyone with AT&T and an iPhone running 3.0 beta been able to activate the tethering as well?
I have gotten tethering to work on AT&T to work and Safari still works on the iPhone. But MMS does not show up in messaging anymore, though. Just use the AT&T ipcc that is on page 10 or 11 of this thread and put it on your iPhone. Oh yeah, you can tether on Windows. But I have not gotten it to work on Windows using usb. I only got it to work through bluetooth.

[nitemorph]

Mactavi, for orange.ro try using mms_proxy_port 8799...

[Timmeh]

Okay Im back (the guy who wrote the first IPCC)

MMS won't work as carriers have been told by apple the iphone doesnt support MMS, they have disabled it. You can ring them and ask for it to be enabled by this has had mixed results

Thethering will only work if you have iphone SDK installed as it patches both itunes and the system so that tethering can work correctly.

Hi Guys,

I finally made it to get MMS and Tethering activated on O2 Germany (my o2_Germany.ipcc --> Attachement).

Sending and recieving MMS works great.
In my Settings Screen I see the Tethering Option and I can activate it. But I didn't managed to connect my PC (I have Vista... shame on me!) with the iPhone. Neither with USB nor with Bluetooth.

I even can't connect my PC with Bluetooth to the iPhone. They are just not finding each other...

Someone has an Idea?

Here's my carrier.plist:

[andrew84]

I was able to get Bluetooth tethering working with AT&T on my Mac Pro (Rev A) but not my new MacBook Air. I understand that Bluetooth tethering doesn't work with newer BT chipsets. That leaves my only option to be USB, but I need one file from the SDK: iphonesystemcomponents.pkg

Does anyone mind uploading/sending me this package?

Thanks,
Sam

i've this pkg, i've installed but i don't know how work...

[bifi]

Ok... unplugging and reconnecting my USB Bluetooth stick helped. :)

Tethering via Bluetooth ist working for me now.

so I started off at a naked 3.0 and wanted tethering so updated carrier settings for rogers with a file from the net. I decided to locate specific info to add MMS capability and successfully got the little camera icon now showing up when sending a text (to add pics and such).

attached is the file I used however I cannot successfully send or receive MMS's...

anyone wanna take a look at the file and see what needs to be updated please. I would greatly appreciate it. Any updates, please reply with an updated carrier .ipcc file.

just rename the .zip into .ipcc and upload it thru itunes

Got mms working with rogers. After you load .ipcc file, restart phone, go to settings, General, network, Cellular Data Network, apn is internet.com, username is media, password is mda01. change .zip to .ipcc. I have sent a few pics to myself. I send the pic and exit messages and about a minute or so later i get a red dot on my messages and there is the mms.

[This one seems to work really well on Rogers. Contact sent by mms go fairly quickly. Pics seem to send quicker than previous attempts. Download file.
If it downloads as a zip, rename to Rogers_ca.ipcc. If it downloads as Payload or Payload 1,2 or 3 , rename to Payload, Compress and then get info and rename to Rogers_ca.ipcc, then shift or option check for updates, restart iphone, and mms.

[gillken]

Remove the number 1 and change the zip to ipcc. Update--- I think this needs to be tweaked. It all of a sudden stopped sending pics.

[Drag'nGT]

Here comes a big battle between AT&T and jailbreakers.

I hope that doesn't happen but since I know it will... long live jailbreaking!!! Apple netbook + tethered iPhone = I can't wait! :cool:

[iParis]

I wonder if this will also be available for iPod touch...
If it is then I don't have to worry about buying a wireless card for my computer that's not connected with a cat5 and doesn't have wireless built in.

[gillken]

Seems to be working fine now. I've sent myself a few MMS's. It takes a while for them to send, but if you hit send you can then exit program and a very short time later you will get a notification saying you have a new MMS. Change the .zip to .ipcc, then option check for update in itunes. Go to this file and load. Reboot iphone and there you have it. I believe it's option for mac. Shift for pc.

Thanx folks for the cool work. I´m happy to be able to report that Congstar (German T-Mobile discounter) also works. Well, at least tethering works.

MMS? Good question. Which app do you use for sending MMS - Messages.app?

Update/Edit: Managed to send MMS via the Messages.app. Simply works :-)

Let me get this process straight:
1) download the file
2) change the extension from .zip to .ipcc (don not extract???)
3) itunes (shift) update - select renamed file rogers_ca.ipcc

Am i correct or did i do something wrong

[Loki.Mephisto]

The error message says the iPhone file could not be updated because the firmware file is not compatible

oops, sorry, disregard the previous message.

Seems what you´re doing is correct.

What browser do you use? Seems you´re using Safari on Windows, right? If you´re on a Mac, you have to "Option-Update"

[Adidaz007]

Seems you downloaded the wrong file.

There are different Firmware - Versions for each device (iPhone, iPhone 3 G, misc. iPods).

Re-check the firmware you downloaded, it must match your device

I have the 3g iPhone with 3.0 OS. I just downloaded the ipcc that will allow me to tether from mod my iphone...however the file did not enable MMS.

I have managed to do it properly :).
Here is a link to download it! http://files.me.com/teodor/yc38zn
The problems are, you have to manually change the APN (in the phone) from MMS to INTERNET depending on what you need! Oh, and btw, YOU MUST RESTART after you update carrier settings, I bet you didn't! (Neither did I and that's why it didn't work)
The teethering is only working on mac if you have the SDK installed (it patches itunes). This is what I heared, i didn't try yet!

Sorry guys, I was out for the weekend and did not figure out how to post files from the iPhone :).. I've attached the ipcc I used. Basically, as neodoru is saying, you need to also use the mms APN but you can in fact use 2 APNs, one for phone internet (first one in the dictionary) and the second one with type-mask -2 for MMS. I don't know if tethering still works, I would guess not, let me know how it goes for you.

[mirceahr]

@nitemorph : thank you; using your ipcc, i can use mms, but tether doesn't work . right now i have 2 ipcc's one with mms working and one with tethering. some people reported that they can use both mms and tether (changing the apn from internet to mms depending on what they need) .

Your solution is way better! :) They work in the same time, i guess tethering is out, but I hope I will not need it 'till apple gives us an official solution!

[scarecrow23]

Hi everyone,:)

I've read most of your threads and got to know a lot:D. Very useful information indeed. I'd like to as if any of you guys can give me some hints or advice or any kind of helpful hand, so i here i go. Have the iPhone 3.0 Beta, signed up with a developer,it's official. I need to sort out the tethering and MMS not working issue. I've found the iPhoneTether app created the orange_sk.ipcc installed it via iTunes, restarted. No response. Maybe it's because i don't have the SDK installed, do i have to? Probably a redundant question, but I'm really new to this part of the iphone world. Well, that's that, from that point on my hands are tied. I've read a couple of forums and articles about it, but since Steve Troughton-Smith's sttumble upon the tethering most of the time there were rumors. Sorry for this long post:o. I just need help with the .ipcc to enable MMS and tethering. Thank you very much:).

if you get a Payload folder instead of the zip, make sure it is named Payload and then compress it and rename to Rogers_ca.ipcc. Has been working well for me. I did find a problem with visual voicemail after tethering, but the mms works flawlessly.

[mirceahr]

@nitemorph : thank you, indeed tethering doesn't work , mms does. For the time being i guess you can switch the ipcc's according to your needs :)

[shaunymac]

This is amazaing. :D

[kage207]

I'm hoping they're overcome with a newfound and overwhelming feeling of generosity.

Haha that's funny. Right... They'd be stupid to miss out on the opportunity of this large market share. Yes, I think it's stupid to charge more on top of that to tether. It's not like I'd use that much more internet.

[Adidaz007]

if you get a Payload folder instead of the zip, make sure it is named Payload and then compress it and rename to Rogers_ca.ipcc. Has been working well for me. I did find a problem with visual voicemail after tethering, but the mms works flawlessly.

Hi gilken,

Thanks for your continued support. I downloaded the new file you attached and was able to change the extension and install the file. I have camera icon on my iphone, but I cannot send or receive MMS...what APN setttings should I use??? (Internet.com, Media, mda01 ???

My mms was working great , then i tried the tethering and it crewed up my voicemail. I reset my phone and now i can't get the mms working. When i figure it out i'll post it . Originally once you load the file and restarted the phone the mms would work.

NO, the phone did not send mms messages after the restart...I also checked the APN settings. internet.com, wapuser1, wap....I have tried that as well as media.com, media, mda01, and internet.com, media, mda01

Do you think you can figure this out????

I think i must be getting flagged at rogers, because i get an ipcc working perfectly and then after about 10 or 12 pics it stops working. I then get another ipcc working with different settings and same thing. I have had mms working on several different ipcc with different settings, but eventually they all stop working. The one that worked the best was ip 208.200.067.150, port 8080, internet.com, wapuser1, -2, wap. Contacts and pics sent and received fairly quickly.

Where do you put the ip address and port in the apn settings? And is that wapuser1 or wapuser-2

So this is actually some very good news. I suspected that this would come as obviously the carriers are looking for more ways to make more money. However, I will agree with others who say that charging an extra $30 just because we tether even if we don't go over certain caps is just plain silly. I mean I barely use 1GB right now without tethering and even with tethering there are very few times I am some place with my notebook that I do not have free wifi anyhow. But during those times, it would be be nice to tether. As long as I didn't go over any caps that are already on my account I don't see what the issue is.

But the more money the better for them.

[Roessnakhan]

[Edit: Nevermind]

[iSneaker]

Rename attached file to .ipcc extension and you're done.

Tethering is working for me.. I hoped this file included MMS support also..:(

[beeh]

I have Netshare and it works great. As long as Apple does not block it somehow, I will not pay a dime to get tethering. The data service is high enough as it is, why should we pay more? In Australia, I have heard that their 3G services are government funded and are 15 times faster than anything we have as far as any internet service. Hooray for socialism.

Give Barry a couple years, we're getting there... :)

[lighter]

The file that I have attached above does have everything with no modifications needed. It includes MMS and Teathering for Rogers!

I use the internet for the mms because it seems to work. Also on the iPhone plan using the internet.fido.ca uses my data package instead of mms. I think mms might charge money... but this still seems to be working fine.

I tried adding them both as well, seems like it won't work either. If you can think of something. I'll try it.

Tethering will be a great option. I travel alot and stay in hotels. I gravitate towards the ones with free internet but still shell out ten to fifteen bucks a day for internet quite often. Depending on how it is priced it will e right for some and not right for others. But, overall, a great plus for the iPhone.

Hi all,

I have b4 on a 3G phone with ATT, i've edited the IPCC file to allow tethering, but voicemails stop showing up (ones that are there work fine).

I have seen posts where it appears that there is a conflict between APN for MMS and voicemail. i dont miss MSS but do miss my voicemail.

is there any solution that allows tethering and voicemail to work on ATT?

Thank you very much and Visual voicemail works also. I have a question. I was told on another board that a Boolean is required to be inputed in the ipcc to enable apn editing for each settings, tethering, MMS, data. Do you think you are able to put that in? I would but I do not have a Mac. Something like APNUserEditable

[iPhoneNYC]

Well, another day that I'm sitting in a hotel paying for internet. I have my iPhone sitting next to my computer. I just wish I could tether. I know there will be a monthly fee but assuming it's in the $30 range it is completely worth it to me.

Apparently you have to put in the following above every <key>apn</key>

Just rename from .zip to .ipcc

[android334]

I'm on Fido network here in Canada and I modified the O2 UK carrier bundle that was posted here. So the tethering menu shows up but when I click on it it says "To enable tethering on this account, contact fido"

http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/5896/img0159.png

3G works in Safari and other programs, MMS shows up in text messaging but gives an error when I try to send it. I attached the bundle I used if anyone can fix it up.

Edit:
DarlokDC, I don't mind testing it because if it does not work I'll just use mine again since it works for everything else like data, text and making calls.


Hey there, I'm also located in Canada but on the rogers plan. However, the steps needed to make the .ipcc file work is UNIVERSAL.
Here is fido's and roger's .ipcc files. I've only tested the rogers one myself but I'm confident the fido one shall work as well.
Note: I've also enabled the ability for you guys to edit your APN settings through the iphone by going Settings > General > Network > Cellular Data Network. Just in case any problem occur. :apple:

If you take the carrier.plist file and change it to carrier.zip and then extract it, you can change the files. When finished, zip it AGAIN and change the extension to .plist.

Least that's what I can remember... rogers got smarter and let me tether without additional fee's so im tethering without any hacks.
