The APN settings can (the ones people are actually having problems with).

Just put one up - http://danielbrierton.ie/files/meteor.mobileconfig

Ahh, I thought a .mobileconfig contained all the info in
General>Network>Cellular Data Network
Silly Me!!

Thanks A Million for the link to your .mobileconfig tho!

Also, I was rooting around the .plists for your Carrier Bundle and I have a question for you/others:

You know the PIN services (General>Phone>Meteor Services) that you included for Meteor PAYG customers, are there any such services (*#100# etc.) for BillPay Customers that could be put in their place?

Popple3 · 01-07-2009 7:32pm

I haven't a clue... I'm a PAYG customer, so I don't know anything about bill pay.. Sorry

What value do you have for Max Message Size? I've heard of others having that problem.

I haven't actually tested the carrier bundle yet. It seems to work on the 3G though according to neonman... I'll try it out on my 2G tomorrow when I'm back in Ireland

Hey, any joy with the testing??

Hi Greggy sorry for jumping but could you tell me is your iphone 3G or 2G ? Ive a 2G with 3.0os & Ive entered your settings & it still fails.
Also I noticed every time I revisit the page all entered info is there except in the MMS: APN, Username & Password fields are blank. is this right ?

There's a bug on the 2G (related to the patch) with the MMS APN settings disappearing. I can create a Vodafone carrier bundle for you know if you want, and you can follow my instructions for Meteor from earlier in the thread

EDIT: Just realised, I could create a mobile config for the APNs.
Here you go: http://danielbrierton.ie/files/vodafone.mobileconfig
Just go to that URL on your iPhone and install the profile, then fill in the rest of the MMS Settings as

MMSC: http://www.vodafone.ie/mms
MMS Proxy: 10.24.59.200:80
MMS Max message Size: 307200

Or alternatively use the carrier bundle from http://danielbrierton.ie/files/VodafoneiPhoneCarrierBundle.zip

Hi,

I have an iPhone 2g, unlocked and jailbroken and on the prepaid Meteor network. I have followed the instructions mentioned throughout the post on how to activate MMS on my phone but it just won't work. Here is what I have been doing:

1) Downloaded popple3's carrier bundle and followed the screenies he provided (including reboot)
2) I then go into my cellular data network, hit reset ( i then see all of the required info) and then reboot again.
3) Download the Activatemms2g package from cydia and then reboot.

I have all the necessary settings and I have the MMS icon in my messages but I cannot send or receive them?

Please help its driving me insane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you

noseyned · 07-07-2009 2:15pm

please, anybody?

Hi Popple3

Thanks very much for your link. I installed it but unfortunatly the MMS APN settings still wont save, i.e the APN, usermane & password remain blank.

Thanks again for your help

Hi Guys
After hours upon hours nearly weeks of searching, I have found a site that delivers clear & to the point instructions on how to get mms working on your 2G iphone. I have no affiliation with this site what so ever I found it while trying to enable mms for my own phone & so far it seems to work I have sent & recieved 2 messages to myself. So here it is I hope it works out for you as it has for me. http://news.metaparadigma.de/?p=2404

P.S. follow the instruction to every detail.
P.P.S. when its sending the mms, as the progress line moves accross it pauses briefly then continues to send so Be patient.

Happy txting

I am on Meteor 3g iphone running version 3.0.
I can send and recieve MMS and use internet date with edge/e.

Here are my settings:

Go to settings, general, network, cellular data network,

CELLULAR DATA
APN: wap.meteor.ie
username: wap
password: my

MMS
APN mms.mymeteor.ie
username: my
password: wap
MMSC: http://mms.mymeteor.ie
MMS PROXY: 10.85.85.85:8799
MMS MAX MSG SIZE: 307200
MMS UA PROF URL: http://mms.mymeteor.ie.

Power off iphone and turn back on, walla!!

Don't forget to go to settings, messages and turn mms after turning back on iphone.

Make sure edge is enabled also (or maybe it will be already)

This thing drains the battery in about a day - I installed it on two 2G's and they need to be charged every night.

Jax Teller · 22-07-2009 4:04pm

this is working perfect for me thanks

daveyjoe · 23-07-2009 12:41pm

Here's a mobileconnect file that enables tethering if you stick a Meteor Broadband sim in your iPhone (the ones that come with the dongle). Just download it from safari in your iphone and you should be good to go!

Lads I followed the instructions and everything worked, but when I add a photo and try to send it it gets to about 80% and then waits and then fails

Little red exclamation points beside the picture and the text.

Any suggestions?

I do sometimes get the red line that message fails but not often.
I suggest follow my setting and you shouldn't have a problem.

Dave! · 09-08-2009 8:16pm

Cheers

I tried it with those settings, as well as settings that someone posted earlier, and getting the same result

I thought it might have been that MMS wasn't activated for my number, so I tried my sim card in another phone, and I was able to send MMS from that !

Any other suggestions?

lkinlan · 09-08-2009 8:21pm

Turn your phone off then back on and go into settings-messages and turn mms on. Have you done that?
MMS are also not included in free txt's to any network bundle.
A lot of people think they are so make sure you have credit also.
Hope you get it sorted.
Don't really know why its not working for you.
My settings seem to work fine.

Dave! · 09-08-2009 8:35pm

Yeah man

AHHHHHH, I'm getting super sick of this! I had an iphone 2g and couldn't get mms to work, I recently got my uncles old 3g and again, mms won't work, I've tried every combo of settings posted here possible and all I can see is that annoying red exclamation mark letting me know I still can't send mms, anyone have any advice????????????

Magic-SG1 · 17-09-2009 12:23am

Hey guys i just tested this with iPhone 3.1 and couldnt get it to work, everytime i tried to apply a carrier bundle and restarted the phone, it wouldnt move past the apple logo, so i had to do a full restore, no mms for now :-(

No MMS for original iPhone. You can manually input the settings on the 3G/3GS methinks.
Once I'm on 3.1 I'll have a look at the carrier bundles. They may have simply changed certain data in them, that needs to be changed in the custom bundle.
Should have 3.1 installed this weekend

ehughes · 20-09-2009 1:20pm

i have the new 3gs phone but i got it sim free from australia. i have put in the settings said and the icon has appeared and i am able to send the msg. the nly problem is tht the recipient isnt recieving my mms and i am still not able to get the mms sent to me.

That SHOULD work to get the APNs in, then enter the rest of the MMS settings as:

What value do you have for Max Message Size? I've heard of others having that problem.

Also, to everyone, I've attached an updated Meteor Carrier Bundle, so you don't have to change the Max Message Size after. Nothing much really, just means it should work from as soon as you hit Reset Settings

Hey, thanks for the carrier file, my iphone 2g OS 3.0 is now working with MMS and internet browsing on PAYG.
However, I still dont have the option to turn tethering on or off in the settings->general->network menu. Does anybody know how to turn on this option so that i can use tethering on the EDGE network?

legend2010 · 03-11-2009 12:30pm

Hi Guys,

This is very frustrating...I was having the exact same problem.
I am running iphone 3.0, just jailbreaked but mms is failing to send
After you enter all of the mms settings ...yes they are correct.

When you restart and try to send a couple of mms it still fails, until after 5 minutes you recieve a message from meteor to say your now equipped to send mms to meteor o2 vodafone etc..

Still though...very annoying

SchrodingersCat · 03-11-2009 1:23pm

Hey yall, I finally got mms and data working on the meteor 2g 3.1 iphone. As far asi can make out, tethering only works on the 3.0 firmware and not the 3.12 as of yet. However, as someone mentioned earlier on, the battery drains in about a day. So i restored the phone back to normal and i think il leave it. :-(

shinnerssc · 05-11-2009 7:44pm

I have an iphone 3g, originally an o2 billpay phone, I jailbroke and unlocked months ago to use my phone on the Meteor network, I've recently updated to 3.1.2 using blackra1n. I really hoped I would now have the ability to send/receive MMSs and have 3g network coverage. Is there anyone in the same situation who could tell me their settings that are giving them both 3g and MMS capability?? It's so frustrating not having these, considering how deadly the phone is!
