Iphone 3GS MMS GONE !

Hi All
I have an unlocked 3GS from italy.. Its not Jailbroken and was working fine until IOS was installed and now my MMS has vanished !! I did a complete restore and still the same....
Any ideas??

You also received a carrier update and this means you need to power your phone off and on to re-enable MMS.
Failing all that, check you carrier settings as they might need adjustment.
Settings...General...Network...Cellular Data Network...MMS

My iphone 3Gs has gone into recovery mode after updating via itunes..help..

I plugged my iphone 3gs into itunes yesterday and it started to update the software - presumabley to 10.5? - came back to it an hour later and it was displaying an image of a usb cable and itunes symbol which i now undertand means its gone into recovery mode.
I tried to restore it to the factory settings as advised but it won't work. Its telling me "This device could not be restored, it is not eligible for the requested build"
Please help - this phone is not jailbroken!

Ok, after 2 nights searching forums and trying different things I have managed to find a solution. I had to add a '# ' at the begining of the host directory. This means nothing to me and I had to follow the steps in the following link but it worked perfectly -

HT3574 hotspot in iphone 3gs is gone??

When i udated my Iphone 3gs to ios 6.0.1 i reseved an hotspot option in settings and used it many times but now its gone. Can any one tell me what happend???

Enabling Personal Hotspot for 1st Time
Click on Setting > General > Network
The items available are Enable 3G, Cellular Data, VPN and Wi-Fi. If Cellular Data is OFF, you won't be able to see Personal Hotspot option.
Turn Cellular Data ON and the Personal Hotspot item will be displayed and status show as Off
Open Personal Hotspot item.
Change your Password and turn Personal Hotspot ON and you're good to go. I tried with iPhone3 but only Bluetooth and USB options are available and if you on iPhone4, additional Wi-Fi option is available (correct me if I am wrong )
iPhone will displays numbers of active connection to your Personal Hotspot, hence you can ensure only you accessing thru it.
Fyi, if Cellular Data is turned ON (step 3), Personal Hotspot option will be available on Main Setting.
Hope this help
p.s. I am using iPhone4 running on 4.3.3

HT1414 iphone 3GS MMS question

Is there an easy fix to an iphone 3gs hen it cannot send MMS messages?

That or the WiFi chip is shorted out. If the later, the only fix is to replace the logic board.

IPhone 3GS MMS works when sent through Photos app but not Messages app?

I recently got the iPhone 3G S 3.1 update, but for some reason when I send MMS through the camera button on the Messages screen it doesn't send. The "Sending" bar would go almost to the end and then stop for about 5 - 10 seconds, and then it reaches the end, but it doesn't send when I did a test with two of my friends. Though, when I click the "MMS" button on the photos app, it does send. I don't get why MMS doesn't work in the Messages app when it does in the Photos app, can you guys help me figure out the problem and how to fix it?
Thanks.

IPhone 3GS MMS not sending

I just upgraded my iPhone to IOS 6 and my only current issue is that that device is unable to send picture messages. My iPad works fine and is able to send pictures between the two via iMessaging however AT&T says it’s an apple issue and they have no work around outside of restarting the device which I have done many times. Is there a work-around that has worked for anyone else?

My advise to you would be contact the apple technical team, they may be able to help you.

Live updating to smart playlists on iPhone 3GS is gone!

Why won't it work anymore? Please!

You never know. Maybe I get lucky and this gets read by someone from Apple that is actually an iPhone user.

IPhone 3GS has gone completely dead, after telling me to connect to iTunes, after trying to update the software.

My parents are about to recieve an upgrade to their contract which currently is an iPhone. They asked me to sync their iPhone to iTunes to save the settings, should they get an iPhone again.
When I tried to sync the phone, iTunes prompted a software update (this doesn't suprise me as they wouldn't see the need to connect it to the computer ever!)
Naturally, I accepted this update, only for an error to occr. (I didn't see this, my Dad said it happened but didn't note the error code down.)
Then, when I went to use the phone, it said on the screen, "connect to iTunes". On doing this, neither iTunes or the phone had no response. I set the iPhone into recovery mode to restore it from iTunes, and the phone flashed white for half a second and then cut out. I've had no response from it since, tried charging and leaving it plugged into the computer.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Oddly, I've now fiddled with it a bit more, and I can manage to get the Apple logo up for a short time, but if I let go of the hold button it cuts out again.
If I continue to hold it, the logo turns into connect to iTunes. I do this, no response from iTunes.

Iphone 3gs mms?

i was told it was coming on september 25 what happened?

Nothing happened, it's not Sept 25th yet. It's supposed to be fully rolled out by then but it looks like a few locations are getting it earlier. See other threads on this subject.

IPhone 3Gs Connection Problems IOS 5.1.1

I have an iPhone 3Gs on IOS 5.1.1 and when it loses connection to my carrier, also wifi is not connected. It worked before on ios 5.0. Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks!

I came across this post as my iPhone 3Gs had gone into recovery mode on its own accord.   I had hundreds of photos unsaved and was gutted when I saw this post, I felt even worse as it was not the information (gdgmacguy) I wanted to read.
Unfortunately, the above post is simply wrong! A system cannot destroy information in a blink of an eye.   If it were that easy, the forensic teams across the world would have a hard time. A criminal could simply force a phone into recovery to remove all the data. Please!
I managed not only to take the phone out of recovery mode but also, salvaged all the data held on it.
To be fair, I am a little annoyed at Apple for not offering a salvage option on the device for such a situation. And it may be that they will not like me sharing this information, in which case I believe this view to be morally wrong because photos are so important. We all make mistakes, in terms of forgetting to backup from time to time.
What I used was the Redsn0w software, running as an administrator in XP compatibility mode. In the ‘Extras’ section it as a Recovery Fix option. It simply runs some software that takes the device out of recovery mode. I had to run it twice for some reason but the second time (out of desperation) worked a treat. The phone is now exactly as it was before it went into recovery mode. More to the point, it allowed me to backup all the photos and videos that I had failed to do before hand. And let’s face it, photos and videos are usually the most valuable stuff we keep on our phones.
I hope this help anyone in the same situation. I really hope someone from apple reads it and is able to convince the bosses that a recovery option is very important. And to take note that YES it is possible to recover data on a phone stuck in recovery mode. And more than likely it would be easier for apple, compared to other non-apple professionals.
Good luck.

HT201210 Why can't i get my iphone 3gs out of recovery mode when i try to restore it?

Hello People,
My iPhone 3GS has gone into "Recovery Mode" and ive tried to restore it. When it reaches the firmware it stops and my iPhone restarts and i get an error message saying "The iPhone 'iPhone' could not be restored. An unknown error has occured(1)." Ive tried putting it into DFU mode but it doesn't seem to work (its like it is in a loop). Ive tried different firmwares such as 3.1.3 and 4.1 and it still stops at the firmware section. The iPhone was new out of the box about 4-5 days ago and i get this.
Any suggestions please post below this thread.
Best Regards,
Kieran

You've just exposed your email address to millions of people, some of whom are spammers or worse. That was not a good idea. Expect a massive increase in spam as a result, unless the mods see it and edit it out of your message. You can only restore a 3GS to iOS 5.1.1. If you are trying to install an earlier version you must hack or jailbreak your phone; error 1 is usually an indication that the phone is jailbroken. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error1

IPhone 3GS froze during iOS 5.1.1 update - how do I get out of recovery mode without having to restore?

So I tried to update my iPhone 3GS to iOS 5.1.1, like iTunes told me to do, and it froze part way through the installation for a couple of hours. I tried to "reset" the iPhone by pressing both the home and power buttons simultaneously, but now iTunes tells me my iPhone is in recovery mode. From my limited knowledge, it seems I need to restore my iPhone, but I don't want to lose anything, like my SMS history.
Is there a way to get out of recovery mode without having to restore?
Thanks!

Cannot send or receive mms messages iphone 3gs

I have an iPhone 3GS running iOS 6.1.6 the phone is locked to AT&T. I use a Straight Talk SIM and have, voice, data, and Text but cannot send or receive MMS. I have gone through the APN update for Straight talk and even talked to spoke with a tech support rep. He said that he adjusted the APN settings for my SIM card and still not able to send.

SMS/MMS are carrier features so take it out with them.
We cannot help here.
