@Ayaz, please try “ActivateMMS2G”. It’s a typo.

thanks rishi.

im giving up on this.
i did everything correctly. im on a 2g 3.1.2 att jailbroken phone.

it should have worked but there is something in the reboot process that gets messed up. it just hangs and shuts off.

im just going to wait for the new body 4g iphone supposedly dropping by march 2010.

if anything more stable arises with confirmation that this works then ill try it. doesnt seem like anyone on the planet is running 2g 3.1.2 att mms. at all. anyone?

As the guide says clearly, make sure you are trying this on the iPhone 2G (for mms). If you’re on a 3G, there is supposedly another hack/app for enabling tethering. And also make sure you’re on firmware 3.0 (or another appropriate firmware) on iPhone 2G. They’ve stressed this point very clearly.

Hope it is sorted now..

Text from the site http://www.sinfuliphone.com/showthread.php?t=53 is as follows:

How to INSTALL

1. Be sure that you removed all previous MMS & Tethering Hacks/Profiles if you have any installed. If you have a previous installed MMS & Tethering Settings Hack installed from the SiNfuL iPhone Repo then read below on “How to UPGRADE”.
2. Open Cydia/Icy and make sure that you have http://www.sinfuliphonerepo.com added to your sources.
3. Now tap on the Sections tab and goto the SiNfuL iPhone section.
* If your using a 2G iPhone then you need to either install the package called Enable MMS for 2G & 3.0 FW -OR- Enable MMS for 2G & 3..1.2 FW depending on which FW you are running on your phone. If you are running FW 3.0.1 on your phone then you can just install the package called Enable MMS for 2G & 3.0 FW. Both of these packages will automatically install the MMS & Tethering Settings package as well if you don’t already have it installed. This is to update your carrier settings so that everything will work properly.
* If your using an iPhone 3G or 3GS then you only need to install the MMS & Tethering Settings package.
4. After you have installed the correct package/packages for your phone, (You will have to REBOOT if your using an iPhone 2G) exit out of Cydia/Icy and goto Settings -> General -> Reset and tap on Reset Network Settings This will flush out all your old settings and ensure that the new settings overwrite any old ones. Make sure you do this on the iPhone 2G as well.
5. After your phone reboots now goto Settings -> General -> Network -> Cellular Data Network and scroll down and tap on Reset Settings. Also at this point you can change any of the APN settings if you need to. For example you might want to use wap.voicestream.com or internet2.voicestream.com for your Cellular Data APN instead of epc.tmobile.com
6. If you need to change any of the settings you should reboot your phone so that the new settings will take effect.
7. After you reboot your phone you can go into Messages and tap on the create new message icon and you will now have a camera icon across from your send button

Even I am searching for ActivateMMS2G but unable to find it in iSpazio’s repository..

I had itstalled earlier and it was working fine but stopped for some reason. So, I thought of reinstalling but couldnt find it. Looks like they have removed it.

Simon, please guide. Thank you.
