AT&T Activates MMS Functionality for U.S. iPhone Users

[garciarios]

Any method for us 3.0 Jailbroken users?

I am in your same shoes. I guess we are screwed until 3.1 is Jailbroken....

 

[jajohns8]

Why not just install 3.1 ?

I have a 3G and an MS Exchange account for work email.

So, I guess I get to either have MMS and no work email, or work email and no MMS.

Any word on tethering? I believe I activated it using a custom carrier profile and I'd assume this update will overwrite that.

anddddd of course AT&T's network is not robust enough to support everyone sending MMSs at the same time. Anyone else's iPhone taking 3-5 minutes to send?

Yeap and I tried sending more than one MMS at one time and they fail. Guess u have to send one at a time.

LOL something else for the forum to bytch about

 

[andy721]

Screw that, i'm not updating to 3.1 until we get an updated redsn0w!

I hear yeah on that one, I will let everyone know when the new carrier patch is at soon enough.

 

[diddy]

can someone post the 5.5 file for those of us without 3.1?

Here you go!

and my poor 2G does not get to join the party.

I'll gladly take that 2G off your hands. C'mon, a 3G is only $50 now!

I live in Europe, and I'm using MMS on my iPhone 3G for ages now. I think it is over-hyped and buggy.

same here & agree

I have send only ONE pic via MMS since the feature came out. No real use, but good to have it as an option, and like THE REST of the (smart?)phones out there have it since EONS.

Works great!

I'm really getting tired of these forums because all anyone does is complain...
Complaining that AT&T didnt support MMS on 3.0 is understandable, but complaining because it wasn't up when you woke up this morning... Get a life!

And now tethering seems to be the new complaint... Why didnt people complain like this over blackberrys?? My brother has a blackberry less than 2 years old: no Wi-Fi, no mms, no tethering...

I just sent 3 at a time, worked fine.

 

[jajohns8]

Bad huh?

Maybe you're bad... works fine here. Being Jailbroken would be the only valid excuse that I can see, and since I am not, 3.1 was an obvious upgrade.

Not true.
3.1 breaks MS Exchange Active sync (on stock, non-jailbroken phones) leaving MANY enterprise users without their work email in the mail app.

FREAKEN sweet it works. Had some network issue because of people trying to update their phone.

Just tried to txt a pix to a friend on the same network. He hasn't received it yet, maybe because he has not updated his phone yet could that be it?

 

[Greg McBride]

how does it work if you send a mms from an updated iphone to a non updated iphone?

I tested that. It went out fine from my phone but the recipient received nothing. And, I didn't get any sort of alert that it didn't go through. Seems like there should be some sort of message that gets kicked back.

 

[notromeel]

Ok, someone please tell me how this is better than attaching a photo or movie to an email. Email requires nothing extra and it's free.

Because not all phones have email and even more so... This is just a efficient quick way to do it now.. especially with general phones

 

[Cereal]

FINALLY!!! Now we can bitch about something else it doesn't have!

Darn it!!! I almost spit water over my laptop.

lol

 

[ed724]

Can someone list the carrier settings in the network preferences?

Settings>General>Network>Cellular Data Network>>>>

That tab is not available. (without hack)

 

[Jules242]

yeah. Look for "Spell Number" in the app store

this app is called "Spell Number" ?

Can't seem to find anything like it..

 

[redman042]

Not true.
3.1 breaks MS Exchange Active sync (on stock, non-jailbroken phones) leaving MANY enterprise users without their work email in the mail app.

Does your company use Exchange encryption? If not, my understanding is that you won't have a problem with 3.1.

 

[ed724]

Not true.
3.1 breaks MS Exchange Active sync (on stock, non-jailbroken phones) leaving MANY enterprise users without their work email in the mail app.

3.1 does not break MS active sync. It's complying with SSL rules.

 

[sniffies]

ZOMG, I just got that magic popup window tooooo!! Weeeeee!!

 

[gLaDiAtOr73]

I know what you mean, i just sent my buddy a test mms and he has not recieved it. I think he hasn't updated his phone yet also.

You're right, not true.

You are wrong
