These fixes should help you get going again with MMS. If you’re still unable to get it working, let us know in the comments and we’ll try to help you out.
As an alternative, you can always use email or iMessage to send photos and videos to your friends. The benefit of MMS over email or iMessage is that your contact does not need to be on the same phone or have a data package. Most operators allow receiving and sending MMS without subscribing to a data service, so in such instances, it is useful to ensure that MMS works fine on your iPhone.
The above solution has been tested to work fine on iPhone 3GS. If it does not work on your particular iPhone model or cellular operator, let us know in the comments below and we will try our best to help you out.
I have tried everything and it still wont work. My phone is jail broken. Is there something on Cydia that I could install?
en las opciones de mensaje, no me aparece la opcion de mms, desde que actualize la version 3g a la version oficial 4, se me desaparecio la opcion de enviar mensajes, multimedia, alomejor esto es un truco de apple a los que dieron jb para detectar quien le esta haciendo a los iphones, no creen?
None of the settings resets worked and I'm not about to lose everything on my phone to keep it jailbroken and get MMS. Guess I've just got to roll back to being unjailbroken and lose multitasking on my 3G

well guys, i had the same problem with my factory unlocked Iphone 3gs and i fixed it without having to reset the network or the phone, that's how:
1. Go to settings
2.Scroll to messages
3. Turn MMS Messaging off
4. Turn MMS Messaging on
Now your MMS is back to business :-)
the first step worked for me – thank you so much!
Worked great for me too! And my previously sluggish 3g/iOS 4 iPhone sped up by about 100 times.
