iPhone TIPS: How To Activate MMS on iPhone 2G /w APN Fix
July 4th, 2009
Q: Which iPhone model supports MMS? A: The new iPhone OS 3.0 natively adds MMS support on the iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS models. However the original iPhone 2G is not supported. Q: Is there a iPhone trick to make the iPhone 2G work with MMS? A: Yes, but you need a jailbroken iPhone 2G. a href=”http://www.iphone-tips-tricks.com/2009/06/iphone-tips-1st-impressions-redsn0w.html”see this post/a Q: Okay, got a jailbroken iPhone 2G, what to do next to get MMS support? A: There is a known issue that the APN settings for MMS won’t remembered after they are set. However, I found a really easy solution for that. First we need to install the ActivateMMS2G hack from Cydia. Warning: iPhone 2G only, do not install this on your iPhone 3G or iPhone 3GS. Please follow these steps:br /olliStart Cydia and make sure load all the essential updates/liliIn Cydia, tap search (magnifier)/liliFind this app “ActivateMMS2G”/liliTap “ActivateMMS2G”/liliTap Install/liliTap Confirm/liliTap Reboot Device/lili[added] Go to emSettings/em emMessages/em. And make sure the emMMS Messaging/em option is set to emOn/em./li/olNow you need to add MMS settings of your provider. If you don’t know these settings, the easiest way to find this information is via internet. Or try our older post a href=”http://www.iphone-tips-tricks.com/2007/11/tip-does-edge-iphone-work-on-gprs.html”HERE/a. The toughest part is to keep the APN provider settings. Mant reports on forums and blogs reporting thaht the APN setting are cleared, which results in preventing MMS messages to be sent. However, a site in a href=”http://www.iphone-tips-tricks.com/2008/07/iphone-3g-tips-apn-changer-gprs-umts.html”New Zealand/a we reported earlier will help us to keep the APN settings to remembered in a few easy steps:br /olli Start mobile Safari (should work as before)br //liliOpen a href=”http://www.unlockit.co.nz/”http://www.unlockit.co.nz/a /liliTap Continue/liliTap Custom APNbr //liliEnter the APN ex. live.vodafone.combr //liliEnter Username ex. vodafonebr //liliEnter Password ex. vodafonebr //liliV3 Tethering + MMS = select Yes/liliCarrier select onebr //liliTap Create profile/liliTap Install to Install the APN Carrier Settingsbr //liliSettings = General =Network =Cellular Data Network/liliIn Cellular Data = MMS section add MMSC url ex. http://mmsc.mms.vodafone.nl/liliIn Cellular Data = MMS section add MMS proxy ex. 192.168.251.150br //liliTap home/li/olIf you look back, the MMS settings are persisted now. Now you are ready to send and receive MMS messages.
