Guides, Latest News MMS 29 Comments
By default MMS has not been setup on the iPhone OS 3.0 for Vodacom. To do this follow these steps:
Go to Settings -> General -> Network -> Cellular Data Network -> MMS
Fill in the following details:
APN : mms.vodacom.net
MMSC : mmsc.vodacom4me.co.za
MMS Proxy : 196.006.128.013:8080
You may need to reset your Cellular Data APN to iphone.vodacom.za
Once this has been done, reboot your phone
Then go to Messages -> New Message.
You will now see a camera icon on the left had side of the message box. Click this, and choose your MMS object. You can also use MMS for voice recordings
NOTE: Its seems that Vodacon (I mean Vodacom) has blocked MMS until next release. Also there is NO MMS FOR 2G iPHONE.
