I think there are enough pissed off iPhone owners to get apple to cancel this setting. Something must be done about this. Apple needs to stop trying to control how people send pics, and ATT should be filed against for disabling a service that is being paid for, as well as not informing the customer before they spend $400+ on an iphone that the service you are FORCED to purchase will not be fully functional.

I’ve been doing a lot of searching, as I too would like to use mms on my iPhone. AT&T has a contract with Apple, in which they will automatically block mms service for all iphone plans. I just argued with several people for an hour this morning, only to be told the same thing over and over. The best thing to do seems like is to put your sim in another att phone, and call them and tell them you are using a different phone, and they will activate it.

I haven’t tried it yet, but from what i’ve read, it works.
Beware though, I have also read ATT has a snoop program that checks the iphone accounts every night, and if mms is detected, it will automatically disable it. Haven’t tried it yet, so I’m not sure how accurate this is.

@ iphone lover

att did not give me the settings. i used the settings that are commonly associated with att’s network. mmsc.cingular.com/066.209.011.032

phone still going strong btw, getting mms picture texts all the time, once i put the word out to friends to send them.

in regards to apple making iPhone most for email would be fine if everyone used an iPhone but they don’t! So mms is needed for regular hand sets.
