How to Get MMS on the 3.1, 3.01, 3.0 Firmwares! NO JAILBREAK! EASY!

Posted on 13 September 2009 by alexosh1234

Brand NEW: You can now download this file which runs the terminal/command code for you and comes with the ipcc files. Download http://myurlz.com/mms1 and then you choose either the Mac or Windows Files. Unzip them, use winrar for windows to unzip, and then you have 2 folders. Click on the iPhone or executable file which runs the code in terminal or command. Its pretty obvious. The iPhone code extension is .app and the widows in .bat to recognize it.  After, you run the code, open up itunes(make sure it is closed during this), plug  your device in, and update to the ipcc file which you can download or it comes in the file you downloaded. Hope this helps. Comment if you need more help.


DOWNLOAD LINK for IPCC FILE USING FIREFOX!!!!!!(works on both Mac and Windows):  http://myurlz.com/IPCC

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=32PSIL6U

Safari screws up the file structure of the ipcc file!

The first few steps are the same as before, we must enable IPCC updates in iTunes 8.2 (9.0 works too). Here are the instructions on how to get MMS on your iPhone, iPhone 3G, and iPhone 3Gs. YOUR DEVICE DOES NOT HAVE TO BE JAILBROKEN!

From my research, this works on 3.0, 3.01, and 3.1

You have to run a command in Terminal(Mac) or the Command Console(Windows)
This allows you to update to the new IPCC file in iTunes which is very easy.

Mac OS X:
Close iTunes if it is open
Start Terminal (Applications > Utilities)
Run the following command: defaults write com.apple.iTunes carrier-testing -bool TRUE

Windows 2000/XP/Vista (32-bit):
Go to Start -> Run (
type in “command” and hit enter
Type/copy+paste this into the command console that comes up: “C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunes.exe” /setPrefInt carrier-testing 1
Hit enter


Windows XP/Vista (64-bit):
Go to Start -> Run (
type in “command” and hit enter
Type/copy+paste this into the command console that comes up: “C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes\iTunes.exe” /setPrefInt carrier-testing 1
Hit enter

DIRECTIONS FOR EVERYONE(MAC and PC)

Download the file to some location on your computer
Plug in your iPhone
Start iTunes
Click on your iPhone in the device listing in iTunes
Alt(option)-Click the “Update” button (Shift-click in Windows)
Browse to where you saved the IPCC you downloaded
Select the file and click Choose (or OK on windows i think)
Once it updated, Reboot your iPhone

You should now have working MMS! Unlike previous hacks, this one should not disable your Visual Voicemail feature. Comment on the post if you are having trouble or on the YouTube video. Make sure to tweet about the article and video/tell your friends! Check out the other features of the site too! BOOKMARK if ya want :-)

Tutorial: How to Get Your AT&T Data Plan Working On Your iPhone:

Step 1: unlock your iphone

Step 2: head over to “www.unlockit.co.nz”

Step Three click “Continue”

Step Four: Click “Custom APN”

Step Four: enter the following:

APN: wap.cingular
Username: wap@cingulargprs.com
Password: CINGULAR1

Step Five: click “create profile”
Step Six: Install the carrier profile
Step Seven: re-boot the phone
Step Eight: enjoy your data!

Additional Step: after a month check your bill to make sure not getting charged extra, in some cases people are reporting additional charges.

UPDATE: here is an updated video walkthrough…
