Cool so I now have MMS & Tethering working by first installing a slightly modified .mobileconfig file and then adding the MMS details.

Works like a charm and no IPCC or whatever hacks required.

I'll see if I can find a place to host the .mobileconfig file. I could put it on my MobileMe iDisk but a little worried about data usage even though it's tiny.

Once you have the .mobileconfig file you can just email it to your iPhone and click install on the attachment, it'll add it and enable the Tethering option. After that just add the MMS settings.

Both MTN & Vodacom use 'internet' as APN so it should be fine. For other networks you can just edit the APN string with a text editor.
 
Just a headsup on the iPhone Configuration Utility. It replaces the Mobile Devices Framework in OSX. I can now not sync with iTunes or charge my phone on my MacBook Pro. Apparently installing the OS 3.0 SDK fixes it. Hoping to figure out another way!
 
I've uploaded the .mobileconfig files to Rapidshare. Just email the file to your iPhone & Install. Add the MMS settings manually after installing the configuration.

Mmm... Thanx for this, was hoping I could get tethering working, will have a look when I'm back home though, no Internet here other than on the phone... Has anyone been able to receive an mms from an MFN number yet? I can send to anywhere, and receive from all but mtn...

Well seems adding the MMS settings manually after installing the Tethering config will eventually disable Tethering.

Manually editing settings that effect the config seem to disable it.

Need to find a way to include MMS settings in the .mobileconfig.

So for now, it's one or the other.
 
Hey guys :)
I installed the GM (Golden Master) leak about a week ago I think, works completely fine :)
 
2 days to go :D I have resisted temptation! by the way I will have 2 x iPhones available for sale at the end of the month, both new in the box (got 2 upgrades due, so thought I would give back to the community and sell them for a steal :) )
