Doesn't seem to be working for me. I still get a "Can't send media content. Contact your mobile operator to adjust your settings" message after it fails.

This is what I did and it is working. try a hard reset before the steps. I have other people using the same process and got it working.

Yeah, I thought I might need a reset first. I'm not home right now and don't have a charger on me to do that at the moment though.

Will this cause you to get pic and video messages? Cause I gotta turn my cellular data on to open media content all the time then turn off cellular.

While this method seems to work, what you really want to do is set the MMS APN properly. If you are the type of person who is comfortable editing the registry, I'd suggest heading over to XDA's Windows Phone 8 development and hacking forum for my method for unhiding the MMS APN settings so you can use the phone on any GSM network you want (subject to cellular band compatibility) easily and on the fly

You likely have to hard reset the phone with the OP's method because the MMS APN settings end up sticking with no way to change then based on the first SIM you put in (I had this problem coming back to VZW, couldn't even get LTE to work). Much cleaner to just reenable the hidden settings

I'll give a try for the Verizon method I saw somewhere.

I was skeptical about this, but it works like a charm! Now my Icon has MMS both ways, tethering, and visual voicemail. All on AT&T. No LTE though.

Edit: Here are the internet apn settings that I used for att: http://i.imgur.com/dK3JYP9.png

can't get this method to work. Hmmm. Since the other method is patched, idkwtf to do now. I'll try a reset and see how it goes i guess.

Dude, thank you.
Totally unrelated to your plan after the first few steps but. Setting the manual internet APN got my TMo MMS working on my AT&T unlocked Lumia 635. You're a real life saver xD

 

[sweatshopking]

After a reset, and IF I DIDN'T INSTALL A BACKUP, it's working. Took a few resets to get to work, but seems to be working.

Saving this thread for later. Glad to hear the Icon MMS works correctly on T-Mobile unlike the 928...

Does this trick work to get WiFi calling working on the Icon on T-Mo?

I didn't find any way to do it

Do you guys think it will work with cricket too? I am about to join cricket service very soon.

 

[FearL0rd]

It should. I dont know about the lte

Did you try the method listed in the article? It seems to be device independent and WP8 seems to build the feature in so it should just be a matter of activating it. Changing your phone listed to a 925 and then changing back should activate it...

 

[FearL0rd]

I didn't.
