Many people are having some issues with iOS4 and getting the T-Mobile USA MMS to work. This is something that I did on my own phone and worked for me. I hope it works for you also.

First thing, you are going to need to add a new repo to Cydia. Add http://cydia.pushfix.info, this is the repo that has the needed fix for T-Mobile MMS.

To add this repo to Cydia, get on Cydia go to Manage, tap on Sources, tap Edit, tap Add. Type in cydia.pushfix.info. Allow Cydia to reload the sources.

Go to Sources and find PushFix.info, scroll down and you should find ” T-Mobile US  MMS Fix for iOS4” install that. Once you have installed the fix, you are now going to go back to the iPhone settings.

Under Settings to go General>Network>Cellular Data Network. You may need to fill-in the “APN” for MMS. If its blank add wap.voicestream.com

Everything else should already be filled in. Close everything out. Restart your iPhone and Test out your MMS.
