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.

  6. thantoss says:

    Thanks alot it worked, but I did have to add wap.cingular to the MMS APN

  7. fangorn81 trappedstateside.blogspot.com says:

    Works fine. You just have to run the app that comes bundled with it to allow iTunes to use ipcc files. Pretty simple.

    does this work for t-mobile?

    When I attempt to enter "%ProgramFiles%iTunesiTunes.exe" /setPrefInt carrier-testing 1 into my command prompt, I receive a message stating that 'C:Program' is not recognized as a internal or external command, operable program, or batch file.

    Any help with this? I'm running on a Windows Vista 32 bit.

    Also I am on a 1g phone.

    I’ve applied the above, and while it did activate the camera icon in Messages, it doesn’t seem to work. I am not using AT&T, so does that matter? Where can we get a non-AT&T ipcc file, for those of us who are not on AT&T network (actually in another country all-together)?

  12. Friedrich Sacher classicpianist.webs.com says:

    Firefox doesn't start the download. The text is just shown in the window…:-(

  13. shay says:

    i doubt anyone is ever gonna reply to this im on iphone 2g and did the installation perfect!!! but when i click shift update and click the file ipcc or whatever the hell it is it doesn't load all the way it just closes so i dont know if it works or not???

    • bjnyc says:

      Me too. I'm also on the 2G (Running 3.1 and iTunes 9). I don't get the camera icon to the left of the message text box, so you know it's not working. If you update the carrier settings when you connect to iTunes after you do this process, you loose the Cellular Data option under Settings/General/Network.

  14. bjnyc says:

    I have an iPhone 2G. Downloaded the file using Firefox, did the Terminal modification and updated the Carrier File in iTunes. After rebooting the iPhone, the camera icon does not appear next to message text box. Any suggestions?

  15. iDanielX intensedebate.com says:

    I've had MMS since 3.0 came out, its been enabled ever since by itself.

  16. mike says:

    I’m having the same problem with the command prompt.I receive a message stating that ‘C:Program’ is not recognized as a internal or external command, operable program, or batch file. I have vista 32 bit

  17. mike says:

    I also have a netbook with windows xp if that would make it easier. But both get the same message stating that ‘C:Program’ is not recognized as a internal or external command, operable program, or batch file.

  18. Nic says:

    I followed the instructions and everything worked PERFECTLY for me. I have an iPhone 3G running on the 3.0.1 firmware and it is jailbroken. It took a total of about 15 seconds and my MMS is working without a hitch…..thanks so much!!!

  19. Greg says:

    if the command isn't working for you, try doing cd "C:Program Files (x86)iTunes" so that you get into the directory, then run the rest of the commend iTunes.exe /setPrefInt carrier-testing 1

  20. Annie says:

    I followed all your steps and does not work. I even lost the camera icon which I use to have.

  21. The Dude says:

    worked like a charm… this is so clutch… now i dont have to upgrade to 3.1 and rehack
