Can only send 13 second videos? - Atrix 4G General

Why is this? Is there a way to increase the duration on what I can send?

MMS Max Size... now 300k? Wtf

Ever since I rooted my phone my mms size has been set to 300 max and it use to be 1000k... what's the issue. Someone please help!
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Go to your messaging app then hit Menu>Settings>Scroll down to Maximum Message Size, then Select 1000k.
I know but its not there... its 100, 200 or 300
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Did a factory restore with RM... all good now. Wish I knew what started it though because it must've done something to my mms registry. Ah well lol
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
I'm glad the reset worked! I was at a loss as to what happened! Never heard of that happening before.
Now the next question, does anyone know how to choose the compression rate? My pics always get compressed so small they look terrible.

+1 Compression rate is way to high. Anyone?
Wait im confuzed! Mine is stuck at 300kb max ughh
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
HTC has never really put a lot of stock in their cameras. The compression is horrible on HTC phones. I use an app called Camera 360. It allows you to set the compression, or to take pics with no compression.
File sizes are now around 2MB for each image and you can see a marked difference.
Give it a try. It's all I use now.
Lmfao... seriously? I have no idea what caused it dude. But I had to reset that sucker... so far so good.

ICS Poor quality contact display picture

Hi guys,
Ive got a nexus s running ICS. The problem I have is that as I keep my contacts sync with gmail, the display picture of the contacts is very poor! some of them are so bad that its difficult to tell who he/she is.
Can anyone please help me fix this problem? I have read some forums and people have commented that this is fixed in ICS but clearly it isnt as I still have the same issue.
Thank you
Saud
There is an app called haxsync on the market. It syncs your Facebook photos to the contacts, and they look great

It's caused by syncing with Google contacts. There's nothing you can do aside from syncing with Facebook (which AFAIK, suffers the same problem).

thanks for the quick reply.
Im not really a facebook user. Are there any other alternatives? I usually get my photos from picasa. Is there anyway I can get them higher quality?

Only way is to add them in manually on a contact by contact basis via gallery.

or you can back-up them by Titanium backup, and then restore. Quality will be the same.

They really do look fantastic but contact pictures that were taken with the camera still look awful
But haxsync really does make a gigantic difference

This is true. If you manually assign contact pictures AFTER your contacts have been synced, they will stay hi res. A PITA, but it works.
an alternative is Friendcaster that has an option that allows the use of high resolution images, it is also best of the original facebook app.
Is there any alternative app for non-facebook users?
I would hope so, but afaik there isn't any.

Instagram for Android

Why is that whenever I post an Instagram pic on Facebook, I just get a small thumbnail plus a link to my Instagram photo? This is repeatable on my brother's S3. On iOS, when I post the same on Facebook, it will show a bigger photo.
Is this an Android thing? Or Instagram has given iOS user's more priority?
Doesn't happen to me, I get the full pic.

Try uninstalling and re-installing again.... (Farcebook, and Instagram)
I believe this is due to the sharing settings you have set in instagram, Check them all and it may give you your answer
Let me know if you want anymore info and remember it costs nothing to click Thanks !
>using instagram
>any year
Same problem here ..
No full pic

The way to work around it is this.
Take a photo using the camera not using instagrams camera then click on the photo in gallery and press the share icon and select instagrams. Then resize the photo and rotate.
Select your filter if you want! Then click the top right icon (arrow) and select Facebook.
And there you go!
The way that your getting thumbnails is sending an already edited photo within instagram by pressing the 3 dots and selecting share?
Hope this helps!

What I hate about Samsung...

I hate that samsung converts a picture in the SMS app to a slideshow. Is there anyway around this?
And why do they do this?
Its not just Samsung. Even on my HTC and aosp, mms shows up as a slide show.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
use gosms its much better
That's the only good thing I liked about my Xperia X10. It would show SMS pictures individually.
Anybody know why Samsung (and I guess HTC) do this?

I use to use Handcent, but honestly I try to reduce the amount of redundant apps on my phones. I guess I'll just have to live with it.
The space is negligible for redundant apps. And I tried samsungs stock messaging. Back to handcent, tried and true for me, plus emoji.

Do people still use MMS ? Have you tried a Sms replacement app, will probably have it's own way of handling the image when it arrives.

If you can tell us how to send media via sms, I'm sure we would all ditch mms.
What??
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
Use other app for that.
Well a quick alternative to this: open the slideshow, press menu, press 'save attachments'. Then you can save the images to the SD card and view them as images.

Read the specifications of the MMS format first.
It's a multimedia video file! You can even record a video within the MMS specs limit and send it to someone, with sound! How do you expect it to be played back when even if you are sending one picture its actually translated into a 5 second slideshow / video.
It's the old phones that didn't support this. Save the image from your mms if you're so upset with it being a video.

Slow motion to normal??

Has anyone here been able to record or figured out a way to create a slow motion vid with normal speed sections? Maybe with a normal speed ending or beginning? I have seen this feature on the new iphones and I hear its on the HTC one, so im thinking there is no way our Notes cant do this.
Im still doing some research but I know there has to be some vid editing app that will allow us to do this.
Here is my example for those who don't know what im talking about. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=313757172096065&set=vb.198201020359277&type=2&theater
