The only way to learn it is to tinker with it, then again tinkering more than likely will lead to many restores haha

---------- EDIT ----------

There is one that says ACDS.VOICEMAIL. That one, you do not change.

Found a way that fixed others problems by using ifile (only if jailbroken of course lol)
Go to var>mobile>library>preferences> com.apple.mms_override.plist, open with text editor and change to look like this

Thanxxx ... it worked with my iPhone iOS 5.1.1 ... Thank you again

The link to DL the plist you uploaded takes you to a YouTube page then redirects you to an oron.com page. Is that correct???

Worked perfect on my 3gs. Now I have to do my wifes 4s. Thanks for the awesome guide.

I used this method to get my data and mms to work yesterday. I was having trouble with ibackupbot keeping the file contents correct after the restore so I used ibackupbot to edit the files and then emailed them to myself and opened them in ifile and it worked perfectly. I also started out with fresh override and sysconfig files because I am sure that i messed them up when trying to do the hundred times before.

I also changed the system config plist a little differently. I found a tutorial on howard forums and only entered att.mvno in one place, where there was previously wap.cingular. Download speed is fast and iMessage sms are working perfectly now.

I am sorry but I am new to this. I have downloaded the plist and cannot open it. suggestions?

~~arcangelmk~~ · 06-13-2012, 04:47 PM

Plist Editor

---------- EDIT ----------

@Misfit, yes that is correct, however I just changed the link to send you to my server to get the plist linked.

Also, for those of you that were wondering about visual VM, I changed the ACDS.VOICEMAIL to ATT.MVNO, did the youmail activation which for me is *004*3057492950# and ran the youmail app and now I have visual voicemail just have to use the youmail app off the appstore. Also I can confirm that the guide I wrote here still works on iOS 6.0 Beta 1.

You are awesome that worked! But now I am encountering an unexpected eof when I try to save.

~~arcangelmk~~ · 06-13-2012, 06:14 PM

That means more than likely you deleted a bracket somewhere or put an empty line somewhere. The editor will tell you where the error is.

eviljenie · 06-13-2012, 08:20 PM

Thank you! Thank you! The line numbers were not right but I reread your instructions and simply ONLY substituted the wap.cingular line with ATT.MVNO. There was just one. I completed your instructions and the moment the restore was finished picture messages were already coming through. Messaged out without a problem too! Once again, thank you!

cgallant · 06-14-2012, 06:15 PM

You ARE a genius!!! I have an iphone 4s and straight talk. Could use my data and phone, text but could not send pic messaging. This fixed it! Thanks so much for posting this~!

I want to get my ducks in a row for when I get the sim card from ST. Will that plist in the first post work with iPhone 3G? Or can I just edit the com.apple.mms_override.plist file from the back up by entering att.mvno in the string brackets below apn?

BTW I am the greenest newbie ever at this...

im sure you will jailbreak and the easiest way is to get tetherme from cydia
then go to settings/general/network/cellular data and setup as so

~~arcangelmk~~ · 06-15-2012, 08:36 PM

The only issue I have had with tetherme is for some reason the device type on the end has always been required. The entire tutorial will work with any iPhone.
