W0ot.. Me gonna try it now

Thanks 4 the update

This is awesome, mine working fine(Sending) w/out need to Toggle Edge on BossPrefs
But, haven't try receive yet. Any 1 out there care to give a try? tongue.gif

Just to correct

I spoke with developers of pwnagetool (those great iPhone developers). They said its not about files , its about baseband. 3G baseband supports MMS sending directly without the need of "connecting to MMS Server" first and sending. It takes a different approach
*
Seems they also wrong bro
It could send MMS w/out need to connect to Edge such SwirlyMMS do
Even with Edge disable via Bossprefs, you can still Receive & Send MMS
Try it yourself smile.gif

I think you guys better check the Data Usage counter if it does goes up. Given that Bossprefs does not really work well at the moment while SBSettings kills all EDGE connections when it's off. You may be charged for all the MMS sent since Bosprefs did not off your EDGE connection.
*
Yess, it should be charges but what I want to share here is, BossPrefs disable Edge so when open Safari w/out connect to Edge there it no usage but this MMS function automatically send/ receive if there is any(or is it bypass the Edge?). It only connect when you use it..
Something like that..

my mistake..
after getting the maxis 4.0 (using the original maxis ipcc for 3.0 os) few hours ago, still couldnt send.. dont want to give up now as many of u guys get it right.. is it related to brospref or sbs setting?
*
I can't confirm, one thing for sure nor BossPrefs or SBSetting could stop us from sending MMS but, I feel something ain't correct with the Edge(iPhone 2G) with this patch.. Hmm hmm.gif

Hey this is great, can I confirm something

Iphone 2G 3.0 firmware after applying patch can send and receive MMS. But can I disable the Edge data connection and MMS still function. If it is OK then I will proceed to upgrade my son's 2G iphone. I do not want to have another RM250/= data bill again sad.gif.

You can disable the Edge via BossPrefs/ SBSetting
The MMS will still works & it only connect to Edge when you use the MMS

i've tested it, my first picture, i forgot that my EDGE(gprs) was enabled... after sending the MMS i checked that my data counter increased. then i disabled my EDGE connection using SBSettings(install in from Cydia), and try sending picture again, this time the data counter did not increased and the picture is also successfully sent.

so in my opinion, you SHOULD disable EDGE connection before sending MMS pictures. because if u enable it, u would have to pay the MMS charge + the data charga for EDGE. am i right?

p/s: my usual way to check EDGE is disabled is by trying to refresh my mail inbox, i will get "Cannot Get Mail" error if my EDGE is off.
*
No, it is not like that
The patch working differently
No matter how you disable the Edge, it will connect IT when you use the MMS
Ive been monitoring it since yesterday.. smile.gif

Need to use SBSetting to monitor the Edge connection coz, even it connected when you using MMS, you still can't browse Mail/ Safari. Its like working but w/out internet connection.. Something like that..

I don't know how to describe..

Hmm from what I see, user that change their carrier icon into logo, etc only facing such error. Me on 2G with OS 3.0 jailbroken working just fine here. Installed via Cydia & reboot, just working fine.

Whenever I send out MMS or receive MMS, i notice my data usage records something, but it's small.  Something like 20KB to 30KB for each MMS sent.  I did turn off my EDGE setting in my iphone 2G.  Is this normal?
*
Shall be normal I guess as we the i2G user require Edge to send/ receive MMS
Same apply when we still on SwirlyMMS smile.gif
