AT&T "Ultimate" ipcc?

i called at&t and talked to a girl for bout an hour and was really nice and she wasnt that bright and i asked her to remove my iphone messaging plan and add the other one... after he telling me it wouldnt work, she finally did it... then after that i was golden .. updated a new ipcc that krillr sent me and i now have everything... for about 24 hours now... i just cant send mms to verizon... i receive them from verizon but cant send

I've given up on getting mms working for now.

I do have tethering working and vvm with the wap.cingular setting.

I talked with an ATT tech for a little while today and he said the problem is that they need to get it worked out where their system can tell the difference between 3.0 phones and those w/o. 1st gen phones as well as phones w/o 3.0 still need to have the opt out, while the others don't. Also, he claimed that Apple originally told them they had until Q3 but then at the last minute told them they were going to release in Q2.

The best I've been able to do is swap sims, make a couple calls, put the sim back in the iphone and I can send mms for several minutes. Then, it goes back to the red !. Feh!!!

Well, this does make sense. I believe the 3gS was released when it was to help dampen the news of the liver transplant.

I guess we will just have to wait a bit longer for mms....

in order to get all 3 up and running concurrently, i think that the type-mask field needs to be set in each of the apns in the ipcc, which i haven't seen in any of the att ipccs. however, what value to set that type-mask to is uncertain as i don't think the scheme has been cracked yet.

I got a ATT_US.ipcc version 5.1

there's a total of three separate APNs in the apns array, each with a different type-mask. When I update to this bundle, there was no need to reset/reboot/respring to get it to show since the type-masks are correct. The default version 5.0 type-mask is incorrect and thus creates a conflict. Any manual corrections to the settings in cellular data network doesnt cause something else to disappear. One thing is clear though is that you cant send an mms and tether at the same time.

would you mind posting the ipcc, or at least the settings? a screen shot of the apn array in plist editor would work. thanks!!
 
here you go:

<key>apns</key>
<array>
<dict>
<key>apn</key>
<string>wap.cingular</string>
<key>password</key>
<string></string>
<key>type-mask</key>
<integer>-8</integer>
<key>username</key>
<string></string>
</dict>
<dict>
<key>apn</key>
<string>wap.cingular</string>
<key>password</key>
<string>CINGULAR1</string>
<key>type-mask</key>
<integer>4</integer>
<key>username</key>
<string>wap@cingulargprs.com</string>
</dict>
<dict>
<key>apn</key>
<string>acds.voicemail</string>
<key>password</key>
<string></string>
<key>type-mask</key>
<integer>2</integer>
<key>username</key>
<string></string>
</dict>
</array>
 
The way I got all of mine working is by filling out the APN, mmsc, and mms proxy and leaving the username and password blank. I didnt even have to change anything under visual voicemail.
 
I finally patched up a ipcc file that pretty much enables all three settings. I didnt even have to do any manual inputing. Just reboot and everything works. Even MMS works without need to resort to silly sim swaps or bugging att.

My wifes phone has an ipcc that removed the VVM option from "cell data Network". It works though, so I didnt bother installing another one.

There doesn't seem to be anything special about this .ipcc. So, why does it work? Am I missing something? Just asking for my own education, since I intend to wait until AT&T officially gives us MMS.
 
I entered all those setting into mine just now and it does not work.

You still need to have messaging on your plan. If you have that you should be ok. If your running 3.1 what I have noticed is that even if you have messaging and not text only, some how when you put your sim back in it tells the network that your phone isn't mms capable even though it is. So it gets blocked again.

Where can I edit the ipcc file?
 
Tell me why people post "I have an ipcc that works...here it is, see what it does", but DO NOT POST THE FILE....when they know the entire thread from there on out will be "Can you post your ipcc". Especially on a topic such as this where thousands of people are trying to get it to work.
People need to learn to use the Intarwebz. :mad:
 
Very odd...it works now. My wife has the same settings. She started getting pics...When I send, it gets to the end and she loses service. Says searching and then the image fails. I then put her sim back in another phone and sent it an image it it failed saying forbidden. Could att be stopping mms on an acct.?

Lol. I have mine working with the same ipcc file that everyone has been using (the 5.0 one) Im sure you can find that somewhere on this site.

I have all 3 of mine working. The the person with all the screenshots above did the same thing i said in the above post. However unlike the person about i left the the MMS Max empty and the MMS UA empty also. Also along with the username and password empty too.

This is how mine looks like. The poster above used different input probably because they are on a 3GS.

Fo those that are trying to get all 3 working on a 3G use mine below.

My wife has a 3G and I have a 3GS. Mine works...I can send, but not receive. I have his settings and just added yours to my wife's. I rebooted. I hope that doesnt muck it up. It's odd. she loses service when it tries to send.
