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.

Rogers MMS
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
Thanks, M.
The error message says the iPhone file could not be updated because the firmware file is not compatible
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
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"
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.
the zipped file does not have a .ipcc file in the folder (like the previous one downloaded...hence my confusion).
'Do you have any ideas??
Sorry, no clue. Everything seems right. Has anyone reported success on this one? If not, you may check this previously posted tool: http://winxblog.com/?p=48
Orange ro
Can someone with a working Orange ro ipcc upload it here?! I have spent 1 whole day trying different combinations of mmsc-s and proxyes and I got no result! Although I am almost sure that I inserted the correct values.

<string>62.217.247.252</string>
<key>mms_proxy_port</key>
<string>8799</string>
<key>mmsc</key>

@neodoru : it seems that user nitemorph has the ipcc working with mms and tethering for Orange RO, i asked him in a previous post to share the file but he did not respond yet.... I also tried to get the damn mms working but failed so far; either i have the tethering working via BT only (doesn't work via USB) but the mms button isn't there, or i have the mms option active (cannot send/ receive) and no tethering option....
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.@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) .
Orange_sk tethering and mms...troubleshooting and more...
Hi everyone,
I've read most of your threads and got to know a lot. 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. I just need help with the .ipcc to enable MMS and tethering. Thank you very much.

I was able to download Rogers_ca.zip file and rename the extension...I had a browser and a winrar issue....I have the cute little camera at the side of my application. However, I not sure about the APN settings for Rogers....Thanks to the person who uploaded the file.
This should do it
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.

@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
