I can not send any pics or vids taken with my phone. I have tried to send them as text, gmail, and yahoo mail. I get the same message every time.
"File is to big to attach".
I have played with the camera settings and set the camera from the out of box setting of 8M resolution to 1M. Is there something I am missing?
I don't know about video, but you can specify resoltion of pictures. Try smaller ones until you succeed. Alternatively, you can download k9 mail and see if you get the same error. Good luck!
I have the same problem with MMS but not in gmail. Ive never tried emailing a video though.
I think I have found that if I stay the message and then attach it works over viewing in gallery then sharing. Might be vice versa but i have noticed a difference
I use handcent mms and it automaticaly resizes the image so it can be sent, but it always gives me an error that mms not sent but it always does get sent, probably just a bug.
whats MMS? The vid I have tried to send is 8M. I have turned the size / resolution down to 1M.
I have a friend that has the same phone and his is out of the box at 8M he sends stuff all the time with no issues. Is there a gmail setting i am missing?

the always show up really tiny
I dont know what it is since the same pictures are sent to my brothers DASH and he gets larger images
the max size they come in is at 11K
I think I had the same problem on my Prophet with O2
See:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359584
I tried it and it still receives small MMS files
can anyone help me?
Are you and your brothers on the same network? If not your provider may be compressing the data.
Have you tried saving the picture and opening it through your regular picture viewer app. When you receive an MMS you can save all the "objects" seperately. Like the text object, the picture object, the audio object. I do this with any picture MMS I receive. This will also allow you to zoom the picture if needed.
Yes we are on the same network
but i fixed the problem
i set the MMS registry to match his and now its working
thank you all!
When I want to send MMS with picture, they always "tell" me: THE MESSAGE MAY BE TOO LARGE (more then 100 kB). Is there any OFF command for this 100 kB or how could I send large images then 100 kB.
thx
first off you need to find out what the limit for mms is that your network provider sets, you may find its less than 100k anyways
a 100k mms picture is HUGE btw, most will be round the 20k mark, pointless trying to send full res pics over mms, the recipients fone will probably downscale anyway
email it instead
ok, but is possible every time, when I want to send MMS, the picture will be automatically smaller then 100 kB ? How could I do that ?
ok, just played with mine (oooer) and see that my mms limit is 300kb (sent and recieved a file 259k fine), so i guess the 100kb limit you are seeing is network set (im with vodafone in the UK)
it seems the best (only?) option is to do the follwoing:
open new mms, clikc on the bit for "insert picture/video" this will open the my pictures folder... click on the camera and the camera software will open with settings seemingly optimised for mms (my camera is set at 5mp, superfine quality... but when i do the above, the camera opens with a much lower set of quality options)
i cant see any other way of making sure you keep the pic file size down without changing the camera options for each pic or editing it prior to sending
maybe someone else knows?
Hello there!
May be somebody knows or can help me with the following issue:
On my G1:
When taking a picture and sending it as MMS, the software resizes the original picture to very small arroung 20Kb size.
Though the receiver gets it very small.
On my Windows Mobile I can choose resize options before compressing the picture and so sending it as MMS with between 200-250kB and it becomes a nice picture at the receiver's side.
I tried everything but I am not able to find out to get the size adjusted bigger when sending out of the camera application within the G1 to MMS.
So I am not using the G1 for MMS sending, but I am want to send pictures from our baby to Grandma.
May be somebody has an idea?
Thank you,
Dieter
Send picture from your Gmail to (PhoneNumber)@tmomail.com.
You can always send pictures from your Gmail account at full size (instead of selecting MMS, of course, select Gmail) and you can also do what senorkabob suggeseted, which is to send it from Gmail to a phone number.
However, you're best off letting it compress because large MMS messages to some providers have problems downloading, and some may not download larger than a certain size in the first place.
In reality, the picture will go through two compression "sequences", one when you send it, and another when the person receives it. It's all up to the receiver to determine how large the picture gets. Different phones will get different sizes. I know the G1 can receive MMS pictures as large as 680x440, depending on what the picture size was originally. Older phones get smaller pictures, newer phones get larger pictures.
I am having hard time configuring my phone to send MMS. The configuration parameters seem to be easy and straightforward, but I just can't send MMS.
How would you exactly configure your N1 with the following parameters ?!?!?

I can't send mms either.
Trying to send to myself.
Used both stock messaging, and handcent.
Got the settings from 3 different sources, all the same, and the settings used to work with my magic.
Can't even send to myself. It seems to start sending, but then quits without an error message. I only get a timeout much later.
Can someone please help? Maybe I can pull a log to see what the problem is?
if it matters, I'm on danish operator happiimobil, which uses the TDC network.
are you using handcent ?? i heard somewhere that there's a bug with sending mms on the n1 whith handcent.
It's because the default SMS/MMS app doesn't compress the image you are sending.
If you try sending a small picture of say 30kb it will send but if you try sending a picture you took with the camera (900kb+) it wont send because networks don't allow images that big to be sent.
o2 in the UK has a 300kb limit and when I try to send a picture I took with the N1 camera it fails. but if I resize it and get it under 300kb it sends no problem
So I'm guessing that's the same problem your having? Or have you tried to send a small picture?
EDIT: Never tried Handcent so can't comment on that app.
I have the same problem...
But using TIM brasil...
Still having the problem. The size of the pic is not the issue : the messaging stock application says it's converting the image into a multimedia file, and it even says that it's compressing the file when it's too big. I also tried with a very small file 11kb and the same problem. When sending the message I got the icon of the letter with a little red clock on its left side ( same as when sending sms ) but after FEW HOURS I got the notification that the message has not been sent.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Even if it says it is converting to MMS...it is NOT resizing the image and it will be send at its full size and will not go through.
I am on Att and had the same problem. i solved it by switching to handcent which works VERY WELL for me.
First I tried stock, then I tried handcent. In handcent I can see the message size is only ~30kb, so the size doesn't seem to be the problem.
Just now tried stock, and it also says it's resizing before it says it's converting to mms.
Size 168kb
Still wont send in either of the apps though.
Will try chomp when I get around to it, but I think it's not the problem
I get the same result as pakalrtb
I'm still having issues with this as well, even after switching to Handcent. It seems to only have a problem with pictures that are quite large in file size (ie outdoor in full daylight type pics that are 900+kb before resizing). When I attempt to send the picture, it says "file too large, resize?" so I hit resize, then it asks me again so I hit resize again. By the time I check the message details after hitting "send" the file is down to 20-something kb but still never shows up at its destination. If I pic an indoor pic or something taken at night it gets resized and sends and arrives promptly, so it seems to be picture specific.
Frustrating.
Tried handcent as well, same problem. And the funny/strange thing is that I get the notification of the non-delivery, hours, sometime a day later ...........

Try to delete all the APN.
Then do a 'reset to default' (under the menu) to re-populate your setting.
This works for me.
PROBLEM SOLVED .
It was a syntax error. In the MMSC field I was typing 10.6.32.2.......... instead of http://10.6........
P_
still doesn't work for me.
Tried to run logcat, it says a lot of stuff about mms, but I'm kinda green on it, so it doesn't make much sense to me.
Please speak up if someone can make sense of it, then I'll post my logcat.
I might try to see if it works with cm or maybe when a new version of modacos desire rom comes out, but since anything else works so good, it seems like a waste to install a new rom to get something as simple as mms to work.
Found this tip elsewhere (can't remember where at the moment!)
But try "picsay" app from the app store. Allows you to resize pics easily and send MMS messages from them
Bit of a faff around compared to normally sending the message but resize seems to work ok and it's only an extra step or two.
Doesn't result in REAAAALLLY small pics either.
My wife easily sends/receives pics and videos through email (hotmail) on her iphone. But when i try it says things like "file size too large"...or, i send it, but the receiver never gets it. For the iphone, if the file is too big, it will ask to resize or compress the video/pic....any help please? thanks
Try Image Shrink from the Market.
Or change the size of the pics the phone takes, in camera settings, i have minr set at 640x480. Not sure the resolution the iphone shoots at.
I just switched to Handcent SMS... you can change the settings for how large the MMS pictures can be, and then when you try to send one it will automatically resize it for you. This is a problem with Samsung's Messaging app. The weird thing is I was able to send to iPhone users for a while, then it just stopped...this has fixed the issue...and I actually prefer it over the built in app anyway now.
yeah I love handcent sms
Mine will do this automatically on the stock rom, with the stock text messenger app.
