The media content was not included due to a picture resolution or message size restriction on T-Mobile, here is a FIX for that!

Saturday, November 28th, 2009

So after updating my iPhone 3G to firmware 3.1.2, jailbreaking and unlocking it so I could use it with T-Mobile I can no longer receive picture messages. This is the error I get “The media content was not included due to a picture resolution or message size restriction”. I have tried multiple settings I found while searching google.com and have not found a cure. This is annoying as hell so I will not rest until I find the cure and post it here.

Woooooord UP! I found a fix that works!

1. Open Cydia/Icy and make sure http://www.sinfuliphonerepo.com is added to your sources
2. Search for “Enable MMS for 2G & 3.1.2 Firmware” and install it.
3. Reboot your iPhone
4. Have someone send you a pic message and enjoy!
5.There is more than one way to fix this issue but this was the only one that worked for me.
These are my actually settings under General/Network/Cellular Data Network/Cellular Data
