If you're on a 2G and have upgraded to 3.1 or beyond, you're not going to be able to use native MMS unless you patch CommCenter (see Ewan Hoozarmy's earlier post). Unless CommCenter has been patched, carrier modifications like ActivateMMS2G won't work.

I could be wrong, but I think worst-case scenario of an unsuccessful attempt at patching CommCenter would be having to a restore. I just patched a 3.1.2 CommCenter on a 3GS to enable tethering and it wasn't a big deal for people who are familiar with the file structure.

Not correct..UNLESS you are talking about AT&T users. I have T-Mobile on 3.1.2 and that source from sinfuliphone.com(enable MMS 3.1.2) worked for me.
MMS is working fine but now my battery life isnt as good as it was when i used Swirly MMS but it isnt dreadful either. It may be a bit better than it was when i was using ActivateMMS2G.

I tried to add that repo and Cydia said it couldn't locate the source. :confused:
 
Does anyone have a working source for the activatemms2g that is compatible with 3.1.2?

Yes. My brother is currently on an unlocked iPhone with T-Mobile at 3.0. Next week I'm going home to visit, and I'm going to get him on unlocked 3.1.2. What do I need to do to get MMS working seamlessly on his phone? I really appreciate the advice. Thanks!

That's what I'm trying to find out. :)
 
Followup: For whatever reason..im still using the mms app from sinfuliphone and my battery life is doing really welll again. Just the first day it wasnt so good.

42% right now at 11:22 pm and used it pretty well today and its been on since 6:00 am
 
yeah, the first day my battery was bad too but all good now

What's the source for sinfuliphone? I tried the one on this page and Cydia kept telling me "source not located." Something like that.


Nice screen name. :D
 
Can someone guide me on the right way to do this??

Just type that repo into your Cydia sources and install the "enable mms...." program and you should get a camera icon on your messaging field now. Just complete the settings for mms and you should be good to go.
They have the mms for 3.0 and 3.1 there
 
The sinful app doesn't work for AT&T users. At least not for me. I get the camera but the mms never sends. I just get the !
