I have the default ROM for my O2 XDA Mini S, and I have to say the MMS application is very poor.
I have a shortcut set up in my "wm5 new menu" to new MMS - but when I reach the new MMS screen there appears to be no way to add a contact from my contacts with the ease of normal SMS (btw this is the case regardless of how I get to the MMS composition screen). For normal SMS I would enter the first 2 characters of the name or the 2 initials and select from the list that appears. For MMS, double clicking the "To" field doesn't even help.
I have also just noticed that the application will not resize pictures for sending. Hmm. :-(
Is there a newer version of the MMS Composer (>3.0.7.14)?
No such problem here, just clicking on the "To:" (not to the right of it - actually on the "To:"). Not sure what version it is
I took a picture. It didn't save to the storage card.
I selected send via MMS.
It's too big to send via MMS.
Now I only have the picture in the MMS draft.
Is there any way I can retrieve the jpg from the MMS on my phone?
Yes you can get the picture back as long as it's still in the draft MMS Message.
Just go into the draft, tap Objects on the bottom left and then the picture should appear in a list of files added to the MMS.
Tap and hold the name of the picture file and select Save.
Thank you very very much.
however i hope there is a special photo format, that allow you to send it via mms
so i had the problem of arcsoft resizing incoming messages which has been over come with the cabs I have found on this site...
Now if i take a pic and send right from camera screen it will send full size... however if i send say a 264k pic that i took earlier from the picture folder it compresses it to about 44k.... I have all my size limits set to 307200 (unless there is another location i am missing)and preferences set to original resolution... how do i stop this?... I have arcsoft version 5.0.31.11
mms is installed on my ppc but whe try send mms or voicemail
it trys to send it but ends up an error. i can send sms with no problem.ca anyone help me?

camera setings - superfine in pics
tips and tweaks thread
56. Incease Picture Quality of Camera Photos
The following tweak will allow the camera to save images at a less compressed jpeg rate, meaning that the image will be sharper and more detailed.
HKLM\software\htc\camera\image\jpegquaity\superfin e
Replace the 5Msize = 643628 value with 746028
--------------------------------

after connection setup the default connection for navigating the web is set to orange world... and i need a reg to modify this to orange internet...
Oh i understand now.. i think i have the soluton!
Correctly Configure your settings
extract GetBinaryFromReg
Connect Phone to computer(Activesync)
run .bat file in GetBinaryFromReg(follow the prompt)
rename RapiConfigOut.xml to _setup.xml
Extract Cabwiz_tools
replace the _setup.xml with the one you just renamed(from GetBinaryFromReg Folder)
Run .bat in cabwiz folder
This should of created a file named regcab.cab
rename it to connections.cab
this will configure your settings when installed!
If your interested in using provisional XML to also backup ur email & wifi password settings to a cab i wrote a post here about it
thanks man... i'll try it... for the email settings i used makisu... will see about wifi...
nice you can take the email settings from the maiksu xml file and then use cabwiz to turn it into a cab if you like also.
does the signature for the email account (exchange) sits in the registry? i'd like to back that up too....
HI!
Please help me i dont know how to do it i cant find the button. I want to send text by mms and not sms. How can i change to mms messages instead of sms and without sending a file just text??? I have an official wm 6.5 rom...it was easy in wm 6.1....but cant do it now
Thanks!
You would need to revert to a prior version of Arcsoft that had this capability.
Sending text as an MMS rather than SMS
In WinMo 6.5 with Sense 2.5 the SMS and MMS messaging has been merged into a single application. If you want to send text as an mms rather than sms you could try this:
1. Select the contact
2. Click "Send message"
3. Type your text in the input area
4. Click the paperclip to expand the list of attachments and click the image icon on the left hand side
5. This will display your photo album, select one of them (you're going to remove it later on so choose any one).
6. This will take you back the message input area and you'll notice a small version of your selected image with some size information next to it.
7. Press the paper & pen icon on the right of the picture (note you may need to press this twice!!) and this will take you to a mms panel.
8. Add a single blank character to the subject (this will force the message to be sent as an mms rather than an sms).
9. Click DONE and then SEND. The message should be sent as an mms.
So a simple *.LNK file does not work on WM6.5?
So a simple *.LNK file does not work on WM6.5?
My MMS2.LNK;
Code:
44#"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "MMS" -to ""
Select the code and copy/paste it in a text file. Then rename the file from MMS2.txt to MMS2.LNK (capitals are for clarity).
If it does work, please let me know. TIA,
