My 3.0 download is legit, my mate is in the dev program so I got it from him.

Stuart · 14-06-2009, 14:49

I'm not saying it isn't the proper download. It's just I have seen links to downloads which may or may not be legit.

Got on the download quite early so I hope that i have a legit one.

I'm also an Apple Dev so I should be ok ;-). Granted I'm not a fully paid up one yet but I will be soon enough.

If it all goes wrong then you can always use flash it back to 2.xx.

It took about 30 mins in total but I have not synced my tunes over yet as I wanted to play with the software straight away.

I think all the links out there are for the same legit software version though as there isn't actually any developer locks or security on the upgrade, as its just the final 3.0 release that will be available to download on Wednesday.

For those that have upgraded early I can let you know that mms works now on o2 ;-)

I think they charge 4 sms per photo.

That is good news, I might have to upgrade if they are going to pay off the rest of my contract as well, I can't see any link to that but if they're going to buy my Iphone 3G 8 gig surely they'll have to buy out the contract

or is that price just for the handset ?

nick_f · 16-06-2009, 14:44

oops read it wrong £170 is a good deal

handyman · 16-06-2009, 15:18

Hmmm - sent the mms to a freind and hour ago and it did work. Then got the following through :-)

Iphone 3GS available on the 19th
Iphone 3.0 software with mms etc available on the 17th

Iphone developer 3.0 software released last Monday

O2 have turned on mms capability today ready for tommorows software launch.

Possible that Apple are blocking mms for ( non legit ) software, even though it's meant to be the same release it could be that it's not registered for the handset

Have a gander at the screenshots above (from my iphone)

Upgraded to the dev GM 3.0 software the other day and have tried a couple of times to send a mms but it kept failing. (it stores the message in the conversation flow now and you can then go in and resend which is much better than before. Tried it today though and it went through. Then an hour later i got the 2 messeges through. First one saying it will be set up then the other with a test mms.

So all working fine now and a day early.

bopdude · 16-06-2009, 15:58

Well if it was working and then it wasn't, I would be wondering, time will tell mate, I'm waiting ( for a change )

It worked then I got the messages through. I think that they might have noticed mms coming from an iphone account and the messages are o2's way of letting me know that the charging part is set-up now.

Can't believe your waiting, you can always restore back to 2.2 then get the official upgrade.
