ActivateMMS2G brought MMS for 2Gs running 3.0 but was unable to be installed on subsequent iPhone OS releases (3.0.1, 3.1, 3.1.2). Hopefully Native MMS iPhone 2G from the iFoneGuide repository will bring this feature back to iPhone 2G owners. This along withTethering Patch 3G & Tethering Patch 3GS are Cydia versions of CommCenter hacks released by the iPhone Dev Team’s MuscleNerd.
There are ways to do these hacks manually but they are considered “dangerous” and to be done by only advanced users.

Steven Troughton-Smith a twenty-year-old independent iPhone developer has managed to enabled USB tethering on his iPhone using OS 3.0.
Tethering must have come after I uploaded my custom Carrier Settings file. Awesome!
Haha even the Apple employees are jealous on seeing me with tethering enabled. 
I have no idea how I did it. Sorry! I was hacking around with APNs in the Carrier.bundle itcc file
Tethering is enabled using a simple on and off switch. The screenshots below show that you can connect with USB or Bluetooth but Steven has yet to get Bluetooth working.

So it looks like Apple’s planning on holding an event for iPhone 3.0 OS March 17th along with showing off an updated SDK. This would fit nicely with their brief history of having a preview software event followed by a hardware refresh in June/July. As far as what we’ve been told of iPhone 3.0, here’s what we’ve got:
- MMS
- Tethering via Bluetooth and USB
We’re working hard to get some more information and know that our list above isn’t exactly thorough, but hey, it’s something! Plus, there has to be copy and paste, right?

Macworld 2009 which has started today will be the last time Apple will exhibit at the Macworld Expo. Though Apple has downplayed the event with that announcement it hasn’t stopped the rumors. We are rounding up the iPhone rumors that have been reported so far and what we think about them.
iPhone Nano Rumors:
iDealsChina was the first to publish information and rendering of the iPhone Nano case manufactured by a Chinese case manufacturer, XSKN claiming that the product will be announced at Macworld San Francisco 2009.
We then had the case manufacturer, XSKN add references to iPhone nano on its website and then followed up by publishing the entire series of iPhone Nano cases for sale suggesting that rumors of a smaller version of iPhone could be true.
We also had a well-known case designer Vaja who has just updated its web catalog revealing that they have plans to release protective case for the iPhone Nano in the near future.
Apple might introduce 32 GB iPhone:
MacBlogz had claimed that they have received an anonymous tip that Apple might introduce 32 GB iPhone at Macworld 2009.
Their tipster had claimed to work with a third party iPhone accessory supplier and has access to iPhone’s short-term roadmap.
AT&T to announce Tethering plans for the iPhone:
Tethering takes a wireless phone’s high speed data connection and allows it to connect with a non-mobile device like a desktop computer laptop.
There’s a chance that AT&T may provide its customers with an iPhone tethering plan. We have heard rumors that AT&T will be offering their official tethering option for the iPhone for an additional $30 per month with a 5GB data cap. So those of you who are thinking, “hey! I’m going to do away with my home DSL bill!”
It is being reported that AT&T might make that announcement this week at Macworld.

Looks like Apple has decided they will not be allowing any tethering applications in the AppStore. As such, NetShare will not be available in the iTunes AppStore. We are seeing a lot of similar reports from various developers who’s applications were abruptly removed and banned from the AppStore without any violations of the terms of service. This is all unfortunate news for the iPhone platform end-users.
