Hey fellow iPhone 3G T-Mobile users. Now that Ultrasn0w has unlocked our iPhone 3G for use with the 3.0 firmware lets take advantage of MMS. We do not have to wait to use MMS like AT&T users do. Setting up MMS is easy.
After you have jailbroken and unlocked you iPhone 3G with ultrasn0w go to:
Settings->General->Network->Cellular Data Network and enter these settings:
APN: wap.voicestream.com OR try epc.tmobile.com
Username:
Password:
MMSC: 216.155.174.84/servlets/mms OR try http://mms.msg.eng-t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS Proxy 216.155.165.50:8080
MMS Max Message Size:
MMS UA Prof URL:
Now just reboot your iPhone and enjoy MMS on your iPhone 3G!
lol uhmmm ATT users don’t have to wait either… 😉
They do or did
I’ve tried this several times, but the “APN” won’t stick. I type it in, go back, reboot, and every time i revisit the “Network” settings, APN is empty, but everything else is filled out (MMSC/MMS Proxy).
i feel sorry for the swirlyMMS guys now 🙁
@justin; reset all settings and try again
@anyone; hey im looking for some kinda auto-replier app that will reply to any sms sent to my phone if im buxy or something, does anything like that exist?
Swirlymms creators will still make money off of iPhone 2G owners as mms is not in the firmware for them.
I reset all settings, still wouldn’t stick.
I found that if I add “http://” before the wap.voicestream.com it will stay, but MMS sending still doesn’t work (I get the camera icon, but when sending I get the red exclamation point “send error”)
Damn you AT&T! You bastards. You T-Mobile guys are lucky and unlucky at the same time. You must wait for an unlock and can’t update regularly without modification. But, you don’t have to deal with AT&T’s constant bull crap like we do. (Plus you get, MMS, lol.)
maybe theres some kinda weird bug with the process you went thru Justin, howd you jailbreak ur 3g
Hi.. I did this, it still says no Cellular Network… I went back to
Settings->General->Network-> ……
The Cellular Data Network option is GONE! What should I do??
Beth follow this guide: https://limitededitioniphone.com/faq-how-to-get-tethering-working-on-t-mobile-iphone/
Wow.. Super fast response AND fixed my problem. AMAZING! 🙂
hey I do have tzone, i thought i did not have it. It was working on my sony ericsson but do I need to call t mobile and tell them I have a iphone 3g?
I followed all ur steps and it is not letting me send mms, red icon next to photo appears
I tried everything but it is not letting me send mms. I do have mms icon appearing but I am unable to send it. I spent an hour with tmobile tech support and even they could not figure out whats wrong. I have I phone 3g S. everything is working fine except MMS
i jailbroke with purplera 2
anyone that is trying to send it and red exclamation appears, make sure your data roaming is on! other wise it won’t work
will this only work if u have an mms plan with tmobile (other then the tzones plan ofcourse)?
As long as you have a texting plan this will work. Actually it will work without the plan but you are billed per text.
I have a 2G iPhone running 3.0 and i am able to use the MMS feature directly from the firmware NO SwirlyMMS or anything. If you’re APN is not sticking,
1. go to help.benm.at/ from your iPhone (set the iPhones APN to internet2.voicestream.com if you have a regular data plan, or epc.tmobile.com if you have a blackberry plan so you can access the internet)
2. Scroll down to MOBILECONFIGS CREATE>
3. Type wap.voicestream.com into BOTH APN fields on the screen (for Mobile internet and VM)
4. You can choose to enable or not enable tethering (3G and 3Gs users this will work, 2G users, haven’t had luck with this)
5. CLICK GENERATE AND INSTALL PROFILE AND REEEEEEBOOT (do not go into settings yet)!
6. Upon reboot, Go into Settings-General-Network-Cellular Data Network
7. Fill in the following:
Cellular Data:
APN: epc.tmobile.com (if you have a tmobile blackberry plan) or internet2.voicestream.com (if you have a tmobile data plan)
USER/PASSWORD (stay blank)
MMS:
APN: should be set to wap.voicestream.com
USER/Pass (should be left blank)
MMSC: 216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
MMS Proxy: 216.155.165.50:8080
MMS Max Msg Size (should be left blank
MMS UA Prof URL (also blank
8. go Back from the top NETWORK tab and then REBOOT.
9. Upon Reboot, go into Settings-Messages and make sure MMS is turned to ON, if not, turn to on and reboot.
10. MMS should work and Internet should work too.
PS: the APN of the MMS and Cellular Data, must be the same to be able to remain saved….by installing a MobileConfig, you are able to LOCK the MMS APN…and able to CHANGE the Cellular Data APN…without coming back to find that your MMS APN is blank.
e my iphone mms works but after a day the apn disapears and it take a long while to load
I get T-zones do you need to have it as part of your plan already do you need any data package?
Opps I meant to say to get T-zones do you need to have a data package from T-mobile? Or can you just put in the APN and T-Zones appears?
Tzones is a data package it is no longer offered. It is now called tmobileweb and costs 9.99. Same thing.
You do not need a data package for MMS to work.
I have an iphone 3g updated to 3.0.1, jailbroken & unlocked. My service is through T-Mobile and I’m using the old tzone plan.
My cellular data APN: epc.tmobile.com (internet works fine no problems)
MMS APN: wap.voicestream.com (disapears often)
MMSC: 216.155.174.84/servlets/mms
MMS Proxy: 216.155.165.50:8080
But my MMS APN always disapears (I think it’s when I lose my signal). How can I fix this for good?
Thanks,
Frank
Hi, I have a 3g iPhone just unlocked and jailbroke it and is running 3.0. My mms is working fine. I just upgraded my tmobile plan to the tmobileweb that cost 9.99. (Ive heard it can take 48 hours to actually take affect) I have been unsuccessful at being able to get my internet to work through this. Is it possible to do this? Any information on how to do this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. -Andrew
Andrew the above settings should work fine for you. Tzones turned into tmobileweb
Frank try putting epc.tmobile.com for you MMS APN
I just tried this and it is not working i have the 3g off and data roaming on is there anything else im missing? Maybe I just have to wait another 24 hours or so?
Hey Andrew. I am in MSP too. Yeah you may need to wait longer. Try going to http://www.yahoo.com and see if that works. Also try changing the apn to wap.voicestream.com
You are using the internet through safari correct?
Yes. Safari!
I tried using epc.tmobile.com for my MMS APN but I get the red exclamation point after the message, it didn’t work. wap.voicestream.com work fine but I have to re-type in at least three times a day, frustrating. And you are right T-zone turned into tmobileweb but I have the old $5.99 plan which they say is old technology, what ever that means, as long as it work.
Thanks,
Frank
cant get my internet to work either on my 3g with 3.0.1 firmware does anyone know how to make it work and i have tmobile web 9.99 plan
Nate have you tried all of the APNs and rebooting after trying each one? Please explain what you have tried.
ok i have apn setting internet2.voicestream.com
i have tried epc.tmobile.com
and wap.voicestream.com
should i worry about my mms or leave it blank…strange to say but when i put in wap.voicestream.com i can go to tmobile website only
im thinking of upgrading back to the 24.99 plan but i was trying to save a little money.
Try internet3.voiceatream.com
ok im going to try that should i power phone off and power back on each time.right
nothing at all with internet3.voicestream weird i guess tmobile has blocked it.
Nate what are your plan details? when did you at the webtogo plan?
about 5 days ago and on my plan it saids tmobile ulimited phone web
I am having the same problems as Nate anyone know how to make this work?
Worked like a charm i have the 9.99 t-mobile web and it was great!
Can you tell me everything you did exactly as far as turning things on and off? Cause everytime I go into safari it just says I need to upgrade my plan.
I am running 3.0 do i have to be running 3.01?
I need some help as well I have a Iphone 3G running ultra snow with 3.0.1 and I have tried all links wap.voicestream.com all of them and nothing seems to work I have the 9.99 tmobile web plan. Also, I cannot get the MMS to work either I was told by someone to change my phone on t-mobile.com to a razor V3t and that didnt work either someone please advise I want to avoid paying 24.99 if at all possible .
