Yeah well - just to stick it to AT&T on Sept 25th - I'm not sending a single MMS. They will never get my MMS business. I will NEVER send a single MMS. Take THAT AT&T! :)

AT&T: Here is a MMS message. please reply using this picture to this to keep your text messaging plan active. if you don't we will shut off your plan and will have to pay a $30 fee.

You: (copy message) (past message) (send) " Man i said i would never send a single MMS."

AT&T: You used a copyright image. FBI, CIA, NCIS, NYPD, LAPD,Secret Service, SAS, USMC, USAF will be at your GPS location in 10 seconds. A $200,000,000,000 fine will be charged to your account and will deactivated.
 
Yeah so who ya going to MMS...most of the rest of the iphones cant receive it.

MMS the Aggie way.

The iphone.aggie method to activate MMS:
I have an even better trick:

Let 8 days go by.

You get MMS.



So I know that Aggie and I are using this method ( waiting until the 25th to get MMS and not even thinking about messing with the hacks). How many other people are doing it this way ( The Aggie Way ) and how many people are still planning on trying to get it to work any way they can all they way up until you get it officially. For whichever way, why are you doing it that way? I know for me I just don't wanna risk losing VVM or messing something up and would rather wait for the official release ( hopefully with a patch to fix the iPhone 3.1 freezing bug, but that's another issue ). Thanks for your input, and even your angry "Another MMS thread" rants.
 
Been "hacking" MMS on my iPhone since 3.0 beta 1. It's a fun game of cat & mouse and luckily- an easy install of the 5.1 carrier file and a quick tweak to the settings and all was well. No VVM problems at all and it is impossible to mess anything up as long as you know the proper settings, which are easy to find.

Why do I bother? I want MMS, dammit. It's a nice easy way to share contacts, pics, voice memos, etc with anyone who has a mobile phone. It's been a thorn in the iPhone's side since day one and it's about time it gets resolved.
 
What the ****, another damn MMS thread? Seriously?

just wait unti the 25th and the threads from people saying.
Anyone else not have MMS.
Where is MMS ATT promised?
Can't receive MMS - WTF
ATT can't keep a promise?
ATT is the worst carrier - no mms.....
 
I honestly don't care about MMS...I rarely text. I'm just sick of seeing MacRumors flooding with these damn threads.
 
Your poll is flawed. I don't care at all about MMS, but technically I will be getting MMS the aggie way.
 
I got sick of waiting so I did the hacks on my 3 phones.

The threads don't bother me as much as Apple and ATT dragging the feet have.
