Poll: Has AT&T Switched on Your MMS Early?
Some readers are telling us they can already access MMS on AT&T. This has been happening for a while, of course. Justin was able to use MMS during the 3.1 beta, after all. We figured AT&T was testing the system. Now, AT&T officially has until the promised September 25 drop date to get all iPhone users up and running, however, it appears more and more people are gaining access to MMS and it’s not going away (at least yet).
So, in an effort to find out just how widespread this early MMS access is, we’re running the poll above, and if you are getting MMS already, asking you to let us know where, and for how long in the comments below.

I have fully functional MMS, tethering, and Visual Voicemail. What do I win?
September 13th, 2009 at 8:58 pm
NO!!!! why do other people have MMS and i dont!!!!!!
September 13th, 2009 at 8:59 pm
I have had MMS, and tethering with working VVM for about 2 weeks now. I’m in Baltimore.
September 13th, 2009 at 9:00 pm
Apple is going to have to add some amazing new feature for me to upgrade. I am more than happy with 3.0.1.
September 13th, 2009 at 9:12 pm
Doesn’t everyone have Visual Voicemail anyway?? Not MMS here in Vegas yet.
September 13th, 2009 at 9:15 pm
I have everything, and I have since June 19th… I live in a magical land called Canada.
September 13th, 2009 at 9:16 pm
@ RWD HERO I’m in Baltimore how do you have MMS?

P.S. No 3G connection either, only EDGE.
Thank god for WiFi.
September 13th, 2009 at 9:21 pm
How would I know if I have it or not?
September 13th, 2009 at 9:21 pm
Well how can you tell if you have MMS or not? I’m assuming I don’t have it since I don’t have the camera icon in the Messages screen.
September 13th, 2009 at 9:23 pm
I have AT&T 5.0 but no MMS selection or tethering. Here in NYC
September 13th, 2009 at 9:23 pm
How can anyone have mms if there isn’t even a button in the messages app to allow you to add a pic to a MSG?
September 13th, 2009 at 9:25 pm
MMS in Utah since last Thursday night
September 13th, 2009 at 9:26 pm
Live south of Chicago and don’t have MMS yet….for those of you who do have it, are you running OS 3.1? And if so, did you have to connect your phone to your computer and download an update?
September 13th, 2009 at 9:27 pm
No MMS. Or even 3G. But my EDGE has been going really fast lately.
September 13th, 2009 at 9:28 pm
Do I need to upgrade to 3.1 to get MMS?
September 13th, 2009 at 9:29 pm

I got a 3G…on 3.0 with 5.0 AT&T carrier. and I have MMS options and tethering but I don’t think AT&T has changed my opt out code or whatever. Hopefully in a few days though !!
September 13th, 2009 at 9:41 pm
I have MMS now working on my 3GS in WI. I installed the 5.1 carrier file. My only issue is when I have my Wi-fi turned on my phone, I get the red “!” when I try to send. When I turn Wi-fi off it sends fine. Anyone have an idea why?
September 13th, 2009 at 9:43 pm
i can send with wifi on but I talked to Att guy about it and he said that the phone can’t access the Att data plan with wifi on… I did not really belive him but that’s what he said
September 13th, 2009 at 9:49 pm
got mms by going to appleiphoneschool.com thanks @Luke
September 13th, 2009 at 9:49 pm
Do I need to upgrade to 3.1 to get MMS?
September 13th, 2009 at 9:53 pm
I have MMS on 3.1 with the 5.1 carrier file. It’s been working since Thursday afternoon. I’m in Houston, TX, by the way.
September 13th, 2009 at 9:56 pm
Just did the appleiphoneschool.com and it works….excellent!! can’t believe I’m this excited SMS

MMS Tethering and Visual VM since yesterday. I’m in NJ.
September 13th, 2009 at 10:09 pm
@David I loaded the carrier file 5.1, and the camera icon magically appeared in the text message app. It didn’t work right away, but after a few days it started working. I have been using the $hit out of it ever since.
September 13th, 2009 at 10:12 pm
MMS in NY since 3.1.
September 13th, 2009 at 10:13 pm
YOU DO NOT NEED TO UPDATE TO 3.1!
September 13th, 2009 at 10:14 pm
Central Illinois – MMS enabled but had to be on a non iphone text plan. Tried switching to an iphone messaging plan but mms was blocked again. Switched back to non-iphone messaging and mms
September 13th, 2009 at 10:24 pm
This sucks hopefully sept. 25
September 13th, 2009 at 10:25 pm
Nothing for me.
September 13th, 2009 at 10:27 pm
I had mms since last Sunday it’s working flawlessly!! Thanks AT&T!! I’m in Oklahoma BTW
September 13th, 2009 at 10:29 pm
I had to do the sim swap and change to normal text plan 4 days ago. MMS and vvm working great.
September 13th, 2009 at 10:33 pm
I have MMS on 3.1 with the ATT 5.1 carrier file. Its been working since this morning. Im in Richmond, VA
September 13th, 2009 at 10:42 pm
This kinda sucks! AT&T sucks! I don’t even care anymore! Got Twitter!
September 13th, 2009 at 10:51 pm
No mms Cleveland, Ohio. 3.1 firmware 5.0 carrier.
September 13th, 2009 at 11:15 pm
Debating if I should do the hack or just wait two more weeks.
September 13th, 2009 at 11:21 pm
Dave from WI: What City are you in? I’m in Milwaukee, installed the new Carrier file and still a no go on MMS.
Thanks
September 13th, 2009 at 11:30 pm
Nothing here in MI, running 3.1/5.0 AT&T is taking there time with this one. I’m thinking there will be a 3.1.1 in sept. 25
September 13th, 2009 at 11:32 pm
@ Al Same here. I don’t know if it’s worth it. I am wondering when AT&T does update the MMS in my area my iPhone will get screwed up.
September 14th, 2009 at 12:03 am
Was VVM missing for some people?
Northeastern PA /3Gs /3.1 /5.0 No MMS/Tethering
September 14th, 2009 at 12:04 am
just update to carrier profile 5.1 and switch to the non iphone messaging plan and it will work for ya
September 14th, 2009 at 12:05 am
Nothing yet here in ATX…
September 14th, 2009 at 12:18 am
Its only working for people with the family texting plan. Its only working if you update the carrier file to 4.5 5.0 5.1 to get the camera icon. Some phones its working without loading the settings. Others have to load the settings. Everything is in this thread, settings and all. Wont work unless you are on the family plan http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=782654&page=25
September 14th, 2009 at 12:30 am
I have noticed that in South Africa after the 3.1 update MMS settings for Vodacom are visible but if you try and send an MMS it bombs out after a while, what you might want to try is turning of 3G service, this seems to help in sending MMS. Not ideal but a way of doing it till our SP’s sort out there networks
September 14th, 2009 at 12:40 am
I have MMS after having downloaded the AT&T 5.1 carrier profile. Visual voicemail and my tethering hack both still work flawlessly.
Curiously, why are some people saying things like “apple better add a bunch of cool stuff to make me upgrade”? I really don’t think it makes a difference to Apple if a few stubborn customers didn’t upgrade, and is it really that big of a deal? It takes what, 10-20 minutes (minus the backup) to upgrade your phone from 3.0 to 3.1? Why not have it? Unless you for some very odd reason CANNOT come up with 20 mins to spare, there’s no reason not to upgrade, and then ***** about how Apple didn’t sell 3.1 to you well enough.
Ok, my ranting and bitching is done.
September 14th, 2009 at 12:41 am
@Luke thanks for the tip. But I still get the red ! No luck with MMS in Princeton NJ
September 14th, 2009 at 12:43 am
I don’t have MMS yet but when I updated to 3.1 I got tethering. I live in Miami, FL.
September 14th, 2009 at 1:07 am
Canada has MMS officially since day one. How many times did I use it? ONE – just to test that it works. LOL.
September 14th, 2009 at 2:39 am
I loaded a hacked .ipcc file onto my phone a while back which unlocked the phone for MMS on the iPhone side. Then at a little after midnight on the 5th of this month I have been able to send and receive MMS
September 14th, 2009 at 2:50 am
I live in Hawaii and MMS started working on Wednesday – but not all of my friends were able to get theirs to work. Someone said they heard it has to do with the family plan messaging vs. the individual plan. ?
September 14th, 2009 at 6:04 am
Baltimore here as well, mine had been working since before the 9th
September 14th, 2009 at 6:04 am
whats strange for me is in my network settings i have i have MMS but my vvm is gone. The only thing i have done was the hack to get tethering a few months before 3.1 came out. My tethering is still there but the vvm info is gone there isn’t even an area for me do add acds.voicemail very strange, i guess ill use the 5.1 carrier file.
September 14th, 2009 at 6:06 am
I’m updated with 3.1software. No mms yet. I’ll wait til the 25th for the mms. Not a real big deal at the moment.
September 14th, 2009 at 6:20 am
after updating the carrier file to 5.1 i have the ability to select a photo in a message but it doesn’t send, it loads almost all the way and stops, my vvm info is also still missing but i still have tethering… curious, anyone have any ideas?
September 14th, 2009 at 6:39 am
Im in Bmore and no MMS. Curious that RWD has it.
September 14th, 2009 at 6:50 am
my phone was flickering between home screen and a update icon what’s up with that?
September 14th, 2009 at 6:52 am
@EAPR
I believe what others are expressing regarding the upgrade to 3.1 is the sacrifice of features that are currently enabled on their phones. If the phone is jailbroken with MMS and tethering, not to mention other ideal functions which are currently not offered through Apple; all of that would be relinquished after the upgrade until there is a safe way to side load those features back on.
3.1 does not offer enough changes to warrant that temporary loss for some people. I don’t think it has anything to do with the time and effort to upgrade.
Hope that helps.
September 14th, 2009 at 7:20 am
This is bullcrap! I should have had MMS last year because my sense of entitlement is more important than the rest of the world’s!!! Whine, whine, whine, *****, *****, *****, moan, moan, moan!!! I need my *** kicked big time!!!
September 14th, 2009 at 7:26 am
Working here (just outside Wash. D.C.) as of this morning. Have 5.0 ipcc loaded on 3GS/3.0 and non-iphone 200 messaging plan.
September 14th, 2009 at 7:39 am
I’m in Houston,TX and no MMS just yet!

Yes! I have it thanks to iPhone school.. MMS AND TETHERING!

Using 3.1 with 5.0 carrier file (which as I understand it comes standard with 3.1, even though I installed it a couple months ago), and I’m up and running in Hartford, CT
September 14th, 2009 at 8:43 am
Let me correct my previous statement…”no MMS just yet!” without having to install the updated ipcc on my 3GS. Lol!
September 14th, 2009 at 8:43 am
11 more days and we’ll all have it
September 14th, 2009 at 8:44 am
How is tethering working for people. Even if AT&T activated it, wouldn’t they charge?
September 14th, 2009 at 8:54 am
Where do I get at&t 5.1 at?
September 14th, 2009 at 9:29 am
No MMS for me. I’m in the St. Louis area.
September 14th, 2009 at 9:38 am
I’m in new York and I still don’t have MMS. But I’ll wait till the 25. There us no rush. I’m happy with the the 3.1 update. Since I updated I notice that the speed of the iPhone (3g) got better
September 14th, 2009 at 9:52 am
Updated to carrier file 5.1 but MMS doesn’t go through. I’m on firmware 3.1
_Chicago
September 14th, 2009 at 10:14 am
In central washington mms is working thanks to carrier file update.
September 14th, 2009 at 10:37 am
I am using 3.0 software and have MMS. AT&T must have just switched it on for me as it started working on Sunday! I have the updated 5.0 carrier file.
September 14th, 2009 at 11:33 am
nothing here in Las Vegas. and i didnt do the apple school hack. i do have 3.1 but nothing on mms. And when i updatred to 3.1 i noticed the click sound when i type has gone too quiet. it sounds like i have a finger covering the speaker but i dont. and that is the only thing i didnt like about my update to 3.1 its ****………..
September 14th, 2009 at 11:44 am
So I did the apple school hack…just wondering if there are any repercussions to it…increased billing, red flag to AT&T, that sort of thing. Thanks
September 14th, 2009 at 12:09 pm
ok i originally updated both iphones i have on my account to 3.1 (one iphone 3g and one iphone 3GS) and mms wasnt activated. so i followed the instructions from this website:
http://www.appleiphoneschool.com/2009/09/12/how-to-enable-mms-picture-messaging-on-your-iphone/
and now they both work great. I have sent and recived from both at&t and sprint phones and they both went through.
September 14th, 2009 at 12:10 pm
ps I am located in Midland Texas….
September 14th, 2009 at 12:29 pm
here in virginia they turned it on early!!
September 14th, 2009 at 12:31 pm
@EAPR I said that because I am very happy with my phone the way it is now. I have MMS finaly, flawless tethering, and the phone is running smooth as butter. I don’t really care if apple cares if I upgrade or not, I was saying that because for once I have everything I need on one device.
September 14th, 2009 at 12:39 pm
Is it really worth bothering with ******** up your VVM to have MMS 11 days early??
September 14th, 2009 at 12:54 pm
Interesting “scr ewing” is filtered
September 14th, 2009 at 1:07 pm
Where do I locate it on the IPhone to see if the feature is avbailable
September 14th, 2009 at 1:42 pm
No MMS for me here in San Diego, CA….. Reminds me of a song in iTunes, “San Diego/California /I want to goooooooo/ to la Jolla /& Coronado ….
September 14th, 2009 at 3:09 pm
No mms in Philadelphia but I’m on 3.1 with carrier file 5.0 but I have the tethering option available on my phone which I find odd
September 14th, 2009 at 3:28 pm
where can I check if I have mms on my 3gs
September 14th, 2009 at 3:46 pm
the new profile will work if you get off the iphone text pack and on to a messaging plan. IE put your sim in a non iphone and log into your account and switch to the messaging plan you want
September 14th, 2009 at 3:46 pm
MMS is good to go. 3.1 firmware; 5.1 carrier file; not jailbroken. Richmond, VA.
September 14th, 2009 at 3:55 pm
Yes, I do. It helps to live in the same city as AT&T HQ
September 14th, 2009 at 3:57 pm
Updated to the 5.1, but cant send or recieve in MA
September 14th, 2009 at 5:03 pm
ATT insists they have not turned on MMS:
http://blogs.usatoday.com/technologylive/2009/09/att-no-early-mms-for-iphones.html
So I have to ask:
Does Anyone here have MMS on AT&T who:
1) is not jailbroken
2) Has not installed an unauthorized/third party carrier file?
3) is using a US/ATT iPhone?
4) has not in any way tinkered around with the phone?
Show of hands please?
Carrier files can belivered OTA or via iTunes, but the current one is 5.0, so if you did some gray-market upgrade to 5.1 (Like David and COOLJoe), you don’t count…
September 14th, 2009 at 5:09 pm
Icebike, I’m certain no one who’s using MMS on AT&T is using the pre-packaged carrier file. The entire purpose of the 5.1 carrier file is to enable those features on the phone; the carrier file bundled with the latest official update has MMS and Tethering set to off.
I doubt MMS availability has anything to do with location, but instead is simply based on whatever random method AT&T is using to go through and activate it on each account.
September 14th, 2009 at 5:15 pm
So, David you are saying that, as far as you know, every report of getting MMS working is due to using a non-official carrier file?
The press seems to think there are a LOT of people getting MMS, but very few of the articles mention the 5.1 trick.
September 14th, 2009 at 5:24 pm
Have family text, 3.1 and AT&T 5.0, nothing here in central mass
September 14th, 2009 at 6:06 pm
Used the carrier hack to get 5.1 but no MMS no matter what steps I took from around the forums. I put back on the 5.0 carrier file after the failed attempts.
September 14th, 2009 at 6:58 pm
Don’t care for MMS….What’s the link for the tethering hack?
September 14th, 2009 at 7:00 pm
Did the 5.1 hack, everything works. 3gs
September 14th, 2009 at 7:27 pm
I am in Cleveland, OH. I am on an iphone 3g (jailbroken 3.0) and I updated to ATT carrier 5.0 file per the appleiphoneschool.com directions. I was able to send MMS to a verizon wireless user, but when they sent me a pic I didn’t get it. So I guess it’s halfway deployed in Cleveland OH. It was pretty cool when I got it working.
September 14th, 2009 at 7:29 pm
BTW, I can’t get tethering to work. The option was there when I first applied the carrier 5.0 file but now it’s gone after rebooting iphone.
September 14th, 2009 at 7:45 pm
On carrier 5.0 stock. No mms. Boo
September 14th, 2009 at 8:59 pm
I’ve had mms for hmm about 2 mos now. Tmobile. You know the inferior carrier lol. I’m still running 3.0
September 14th, 2009 at 9:23 pm
I installed the AT&T 5.1 carrier file per the instructions in Luke’s post that points you to:
http://www.appleiphoneschool.com/2009/09/12/how-to-enable-mms-picture-messaging-on-your-iphone/
After installing the new carrier file and rebooting the phone, I have the MMS function enabled…HOWEVER, the status bar stops just short of complete…wait a bit longer…RED EXCLAMATION POINT!
I’m in Detroit. I guess I’ll see if I can send tomorrow!
September 14th, 2009 at 10:10 pm
icebike, exactly. The current carrier file supplied by Apple/AT&T does not provide for enabled MMS on the phone itself. The only way to even have the camera icon enabled, regardless of whether one can actually send or receive an MMS, is to apply the carrier file update. Simply put, no iPhone running the ‘latest’ software obtained through iTunes is going to be able to MMS right now — not until AT&T offers the carrier file update later this month.
September 14th, 2009 at 10:35 pm
Tried yesterday and it works!!!!! I am so happy! weird thing is that it is not working on my girls iPhone, and we are in the same family plan… AT&T must me testing it out…
September 14th, 2009 at 10:37 pm
Updated my 3GS, and my wife’s 3G with 5.1 yesterday. Rebooted, and we both have fully functional MMS. Nashville, TN.
September 14th, 2009 at 11:04 pm
MMS is working on Firmware 3.0 AT&T 5.0 Jailbroken iphone.
September 14th, 2009 at 11:23 pm
I have family texting, 3.1 and no MMS or tethering.
September 15th, 2009 at 1:03 am
My MMS is working with family plan in TX but my g/f in Houston isn’t receiving my MMS I send to her not even the stupid direction on how to get online with the username and password. I am on a 3GS 3.0 jailbroken with AT&T carrier file 5.0 but from what I’ve read you can change your carrier file without it being jailbroken.
September 15th, 2009 at 6:51 am
I am now able to receive MMS messages on my jailbroken 3.0 firmware, ATT 5.0 carrier file iphone 3G. I am in Cleveland, OH. I was only able to send MMS last night and now receiving is working this morning.
September 15th, 2009 at 8:08 am
Still no MMS in Detroit…even after the 5.1 update.
September 15th, 2009 at 9:51 am
My mms was enabled yesterday I tried to send one just to see and it worked. I live in TN so they released it early for me.
September 15th, 2009 at 10:10 am
Hey i used the carrier update from the link here, am i to add anything else in the network field or change the proxy thats include in this carrier file ? I tried sending a pic but get the red error to try again.
September 16th, 2009 at 8:46 am
In NY and NO MMS!!!!!
September 16th, 2009 at 9:50 am
Nothing yet in Detroit. iPhone 3.1 with 5.0 carrier. Hesitant to install 5.1 hack.
September 16th, 2009 at 4:19 pm
East Tennessee, 3G, 3.1, 5.1 carrier, single plan but had ATT switch to normal txt plan with SMS/MMS -currently not working
That being said a buddy has… East Tennessee, 3G & 3GS, 3.1, 5.1 carrier, family plan -works
I think it may be working for those on family plans currently.
September 17th, 2009 at 11:12 am
Mms is working for me today! Non-jailbroken, AT&T 5.0 carrier file, no tinkering whatsoever. Northeast Pennsylvania.
September 17th, 2009 at 4:40 pm
Upgraded to Att 5.1 MMS works fine but I lost my VVM. Trying to figure out how to get it back any ideas???
September 17th, 2009 at 9:42 pm
I have applied the carrier file floating around to my 3.1 3g pwned and my 3.0 3g JB with redsnow. I would like to report both phones are able to send and receive MMS and visual voice mail works great. The only issue I have is the carrier file does not contain a username / password. In short you can only send mms on edge and 3g no WIFI.
September 17th, 2009 at 9:45 pm
@Wonder Bread – Have you tired to reset settings ?

September 18th, 2009 at 4:17 pm
@Rick. Yes I did try that. My VVM options are gone from the cellular data network option
September 18th, 2009 at 5:24 pm
Live in Hampton, VA…updating now….trying it……not yet. Will keep trying, other people in my area have it.
September 20th, 2009 at 3:54 pm
For those that mms is working what settings does your phone have under mms
September 21st, 2009 at 10:51 am
I have been able to send MMS without the need of the sim hack since September 9th. VVM and MMS working perfectly since then with the 5.0 ipcc running on 3Gs 3.0.1.
September 21st, 2009 at 10:52 am
btw, live in NYC.
September 22nd, 2009 at 9:26 pm
hey did anyone else get this text? I got it today. AT&T Free Msg: Picture & video messaging (MMS) will be available for iPhone on 9/25. While we prepare your account for MMS capability, the current “view my message” experience will be turned off but your ability to send and receive text messages will not be affected.
September 22nd, 2009 at 9:27 pm

iPhone OS 3.1, (updated 9/9/09), MMS was functional OFFICIALLY, no jailbreak/unlock, since 9/9. Using AT&T 5.0 IPCC with MMS/Tethering. Standard settings provided with IPCC, no changes required. Depends on account provisioning though. If you have family messaging, which includes MMS, MMS works as the account, and all lines, have access to the MMSC. Just takes the software on the iPhone to do the rest.

I have two iphones and on one MMS is finally working, but on my other one is still not working..I love the MMS..just cant wait to get it on my other phone.

Im in ATL, GA and still I’m not seeing the MMS icon to add a picture. I just got off the phone with Apple and they told me to go under Settings -> Messaging and turn on the MMS but it doesn’t give me the option to do that. So they switched me to AT&T and they said that it may not be available until later this afternoon so hopefully their right. Do you think it might be because I have 3.0 Software and not the 3.1 Software? Can somebody please help me out. FML!
September 25th, 2009 at 1:10 pm
yes you need to update to 3.1
September 25th, 2009 at 1:15 pm
Thanks It’s Me!

I’ve had it for a few weeks with my jailbroken 3G 16G. I want to update the carrier file today but don’t want to update to 3.1 until there is a jailbreak with PC instead of only with Mac. Anyone have input?
September 25th, 2009 at 2:09 pm
Well I upgraded to V31 and I don’t see the MMS icon. Are they pushing it out slowly? What a pain that it doesn’t update with the new software. In face I updated my phone to 3.1 a few days ago……..I want it now!

so frustrated!
September 28th, 2009 at 2:43 pm
I downloaded the update today. I can send, but not receive pics.
September 28th, 2009 at 3:38 pm
In Las Vegas, had MMS over the weekend. Now has failed multiple times. Also unable to send ANY text messages through the iPhone using 3G network. I’ve turned off 3G network under settings and I can send text messages once again. Turn 3G back on and one message goes through, the rest fail. Sounds to me like there’s not enough bandwidth on the ATT 3G network in Las Vegas

North Oregon Coast. Nada here. Did the updates and all. Get the Message Failed memo! GRRRRR
