On my iPhone 4S, this happened:

I used Absinthe to jailbreak the device; after that, in Cydia I added the Backspace repo and installed the CommCenter patch.

Respringed, then edited the carrierbundle to use the same APN for both data and tethering.

I reset settings in Network Settings from preferences, then tried to use the personal hotspot:

it doesn't work. The behavior is strange. It lets me enable the personal hotspot, create a wifi network, but when I try to connect any device (iPad, computer) to the iPhone, the tethering blue bar doesn't appear.
The behavior isn't coherent, and so I think there are some problems in the backspace patch.

I hope someone will fix this, in Italy you should pay 20 more euros to use tethering, after already paying for data plan!

If I set the original carrier bundle back, it works flawlessly, but at such a great cost!

Any clue?

Reboot, go to var/Mobile/Library and check carrier.plist in Carrier Bundle.bundle and Operator Bundle.bundle, if carrier.plist is the one you modified it means the patch works. The blue bar doesn't appear means no client connected to the iPhone. On the computer, use SSID = iPhone name, WEP key = Wi-Fi Password generated by Personal Hotspot (you may change later), use dynamic IP (iPhone will assign). You may try USB Tethering to see if APN setting works.

Thank you for your reply… but I can assure you I already tried those stuff… I've been using (and jail breaking!) iPhone since the first model came out… so I know how to tether it to computer/iPad

question is, once i enable Personal Hotspot using the original apn settings, it works flawlessly, but if I change the tethering APN (typemask 48), the personal hotspot doesn't enable the blue tethering bar… it seems there is some other check done on the commcenter connected operations…

I hope someone can help me!

It would be more easy to assist if you could post the original and the modified carrier.plist.

I will post them once I'm back home (I'm outside right now)
Thank you
Bye!

@sbrow210, I guess it's related to the new Cydia. There a command in the deb file that can't be executed to complete the process, the problem surfaced when I tried to manually patch my iPhone 4s, the command line ldid is missing and I get stuck at Apple logo after reboot. Before installing the patch you need to search Cydia for Cydelete and install it or setting Cydia in Developer mode and install Link Identity Editor, this makes ldid command available.

Hi Aneagle,
Thanks for your help. I was able to get the comcenterpatch working after install the Cydelete. After it reboot, the screen came back without hanging on the Apple logo. Though, I am quite confused after I modified the carrier bundle to add the edge editing feature. After I turn off the phone and turn it back on, it suck at the Apple logo again but I used the iBooty to kick it out from this. Confusing though as I have the Corona 1.0.5 installed after the tethered jailbreak ios 5.0.1 using sn0wbreeze.
Now, the phone is able to connect to the internet using edge/3g fine, but personal hotspot, facetime, iOS messaging, facetime, and push notification doesn't work. The personal hotspot and facetime option just disappeared. iOS messaging just said waiting for activiation. The push notification just flatly doesn't work.
Looking like Apple is getting on to the jailbreak and unlock phone pretty good. After the Commcenter patch install, the carrier name still said ÄT&T 11.0" This is so weird and must be the reason why everything is not working. So so many issues, this iOS 5.0.1.....

CommCeneter patching is only to bypass Apple signature check on the carrier.plist so you can modify it or add a new carrier bundle. Personal Hotspot doesn't work if authentication at the tethering APN fails. USB tethering sometimes doesn't work and on the computer side it shows no USB connection, this is because the USB driver installed by iTunes is corrupted, replace iTunes can fix the problem. The carrier logo file name is a bit tricky, Apple has their own way to put restriction on it. They use _1only_ suffix to restrict the carrier logo to black and white (may be to load it faster), if you have a colorful logo and use _1only_ it won't show, @2x should be used for color logo on retina screen.

Facetime/iMessage is a different problem, it's not related to the patch but you need to pay attention to the phone number in carrier.plist, iPhone needs to send sms to that number to activate Facetime/iMessage. Facetime/iMessage needs push notification, it means the phone needs a unique certificate so you have to think about it before JB. If you got the locked phone from AT&T and AT&T sim, don't hactivate the phone (it doesn't generate a unique certificate), activate it the legit way and you get the required unique certificate and no trouble later with push notification/Facetime/iMessage. You can use Redsn0w command line to unhactivate. If you don't have the original sim, SAM may help but sometime it doesn't. Push doctor, push fix... can give you a unique certificate but you have to try it several times because they can't generate the stock of certificate fast enough. I don't suggest services charging money for the certificate, you may lose money and end up with the same trouble.

Hi Aneagle,
Thanks for your help once again, the True iPhone hero. Now, after I did the patch to bypass the CommCenter check, I was able to add the edge editing. After further search, the phone number for the Face/iMessage had been change to the UK international +447786205094, but both of them still said waiting for activation..., when I did the JB, I had the original AT&T sim card and didn't use Hacktivate as I wanted to have the push notification. Some how the push notification isn't work neither....I used the latest sn0wbreeze to do a clean JB. Really weird, another problem still finding the personal hotspot which magically disppear, do I have to modify the carrier plist file or just reinstall the iTune to the latest version? Thanks again....

You can have a look in var/mobile/Library/Carrier Bundle.bundle and Operator Bundle.bundle and see if the carrier.plist is the one you want to use. If the content of these 2 bundle is not what you expect it to be. This is roughly how it works: after successful registration with a gsm carrier, CommCenter search in system/Library/Carrier Bundles/iPhone for the symlink MCC/MNC, this symlink points to a carrier bundle, if the signatures in this bundle are correct (always correct with the patch) 2 symlinks Carrier Bundle.bundle and Operator Bundle.bundle are created in var/mobile/Library and point to that carrier bundle. If you need to route tethering to a particular APN, you can simply take that bundle and modify its carrier.plist, the type mask is a bit tricky, 1=Internet and 48=tethering but 49 won't give tethering, I tried many times and at the end I have to use 49 for Internet and 48 for tethering. If you are on a US carrier and Facetime activation is sent to +44 it means CommCenter can't find the MCC/MNC Symlink and Unknown.bundle is used. The Personal Hotspot button disappears means the tethering part in carrier.plist is not valid. If the Personal Hotspot button is shown and you switch it ON and select USN Only but the computer says no USB connection, it's iTunes problem and to fix it you just reboot the phone, if still doesn't works delete iTunes and install the latest version.

Actually the phone was locked to the AT&T but now on the True mobile Thailand which I checked on available carrier bundle plist for True Thailand and found that it is using this number for the Facetime/iMessage activation. It didn't go to the unknown.bundle though, as when I check on the setting/general/about, still see the name "AT&T 11.0" there.

When you mentioned to modify the carrier.plist for the task mask change, are you referring to the one in the System or Var path? I have never actually modified anything on the Operator Bundle side before. Here is the sample of what had been change in the AT&T carrier bundle so far. Thanks again for your help, below is the modified carrier plist I did.

I got confused. Your phone is AT&T locked and now you're on True Thailand. Presuming that Ultrasn0w is installed and the current sim is from True, MCC/MNC should be 52099 and the bundle in use is True_th.bundle from system/Library/Carrier Bundles/iPhone, you'd better take carrier.plist from True_th.bundle and modify. True has same APN for Internet and Tethering, it means you use Internet from the phone or tether to a pc they will charge the same rate. I don't understand why you use carrier.plist from AT&T.

PS. I went back to your earlier posts and understand now the problem is while the status bar shows True carrier, in Settings/General/About the carrier shows AT&T 11.0, this AT&T 11.0 is from info.plist in the active bundle. Verify the content of True_th.bundle on the system side (things on the var side is volatile), if the bundle is correct it could come from an ipcc. Remove all ipcc in var/mobile/Library and var/mobile/ConfigurationProfiles, reset Network Settings and restart. Make sure there's no Fake Carrier or tetherme...

Presuming that Ultrasn0w is installed and the current sim is from True, MCC/MNC should be 52099 and the bundle in use is True_th.bundle from system/Library/Carrier Bundles/iPhone, you'd better take carrier.plist from True_th.bundle and modify. True has same APN for Internet and Tethering, it means you use Internet from the phone or tether to a pc they will charge the same rate. I don't understand why you use carrier.plist from AT&T.

PS. I went back to your earlier posts and understand now the problem is while the status bar shows True carrier, in Settings/General/About the carrier shows AT&T 11.0, this AT&T 11.0 is from info.plist in the active bundle. Verify the content of True_th.bundle on the system side (things on the var side is volatile), if the bundle is correct it could come from an ipcc. Remove all ipcc in var/mobile/Library and var/mobile/ConfigurationProfiles, reset Network Settings and restart. Make sure there's no Fake Carrier or tetherme...

Thanks very much for your help again, aneagle. I will try on my girlfriend's iPhone 4 this weekend. I hope this will make the phone select the correct carrier bundle. I didn't mean to confused you earlier about selecting the AT&T carrier bundle, somehow, the phone just selected that by itself after ultrasn0w unlock and commcenter patch installed so I had a hard time making the phone select the correct carrier bundle with the True mobile carrier. If the correct bundle is selected, I think the problem of Facetime/iMessage/Personnal Hotspot/and Location Services should work (I think). I did verified that the push notification is working normally now.

I hope someone can help me.

I have a 3GS that is leaglly unlocked and is now on 5.0.1, I can not send or receive picture messages (MMS), I have jailbroken using Redsn0w, installed cydelete, then commcenter patch from v.backspace.jp/repo, rebooted then installed Sorin's t-mobile ipcc-both manually and through itunes, and it doesn't work.

I see the little camera icon near the text messages but it was greyed out.

PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Check Settings, Messages, under SMS/MMS MMS Messaging should be ON and your number is shown in Phone, My Number.

there is no MMS Messaging ON switch, I just have a iMessage ON/OFF switch and a SMS Character count ON/OFF Switch

I heard that there might be a problem with the commcenter patch, any Ideas, anyone

[aneagle]

In var/mobile/Library, look for Carrier Bundle.bundle and Operator Bundle.bundle and verify carrier.plist to see if it reflects what you want to config for MMS (APN, user, password, mmsc, proxy...and type mask). The patch on CommCenterClassic is only to bypass signature check of carrier.plist, I don't think that it works for unsigned ipcc.

[Butchiem1]

I will check that out, but what is the commcenter Classic you keep referring to, I have been installing commcenter, is it the same thing?

and, doesnt the commcenter allow you to install .ipcc bundles that are unsigned, at least thats what it used to do, now I installed it manually

[aneagle]

CommCenter* patch from v.backspace detects the phone type and iOS and applies the correct patch. If unsigned ipcc can't get through you can modify an existing carrier bundle in system/Library/Carrier Bundles/iPhone or build a new bundle.

Can you upload that Sorin's deb file, I can't find it on ModMyi repo, or the bundle you want to insert so I can have a look and try to make it compatible with iOS 5.
