Please let me know if you find a better solution. It took me a while to find this but the mms pics i recieve are normal sized now. I think you need to be rooted and have root explorer, at least i did. Read this.

All I did was go into system/app and delete MMS.apk and replace it with the Mms_3.apk you can dowload in that link. Then go to the settings in your messaging (you might need to reboot first) and you will have additional setting you can adjust. At the bottom you can use a Custom User Agent. I use the N95. I havent tried any of the others. Anyway...thats it! Thee are other settings you can change that really make the messaging app better..No need for Handcent anymore!
Let me know if you need more help and how it works out! Good luck.

Thanks Marty I want to try that but my Streak isn't rooted and I'm not sure that I want to root it just yet.

Hmmm....grrrr.... I made a backup of the original Mms.apk to my sdcard...
deleted it from /system/app.
Tried to install Mms_3.apk and it says UPDATE INCOMPATIBLE!!!
I'm on ATT 2.1 O2 ROM....
I tried to re-install the original Mms.apk but it says:
Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT]
I've tried installing with adb, astro, and super task manager...all a no go...
Now I'm stuck with no MMS!!! Grrrr...
Any ideas on how to get it re-installed!?!
Thanks

I used Root Explorer and had no problem. I even switched back and forth once to see if I could go back to the original. Are you rooted?
Marty

Also did you reboot?

yup! rebooted a number off times.

Are you rooted? If so try root explorer. I can send you my original MMS.apk if you would like.
Marty

OMG!
I was renaming Mms_3.apk to Mms.apk...as soon as I kept the name the same...it worked!!!
Sheeesh...
Thanks!

Sorry i wasn't more clear on that. Yes you have to leave it MMS_3.apk

I tried this on my 1.6 OS and it didn't work. I follow the instructions to a t and didn't rename the file.
Basically, when I replace it, I lose the Messaging Icon. I can't find it anywhere...
Help please...

You have to go back in and install it, I'm on 1.6 on a Streak and it wouldnt install for me though.

Thanks for the help...I just installed Handcent and called it the day...

does the mms_3.apk work on 2.2? I tried loading it. rebooted. and I got multiple faid to load errors.
thanks!

I tried again. It loads and I can access the sms/mms... But as soon as I try to send a text it fails. And because its waiting to be sent, it continues to crash the program.
So if someone could figure out how to fix the sending part of it. It should work!
Yes the small mms image bug is still prevelant on 2.2.

[Q] Handcent problem

hi all.
i am facing strange problem with handcent sms app. it just wont delete any thread. i select "delete" and everything remains unchanged, as if nothing happened.
i also tried to force delete, but with force delete the application FCs.
any ideas...??? thnx in advance.

anybody..???

Perhaps try to delete them with the 'original' message app that came with your wildfire? I know it is not a real solution, but perhaps it will do the trick.

[Q] Gmail problem_won't search

Is anyone using cyanogenmod 7 and having problems using gmail. Specifically using the search function and viewing other labels besides the inbox?
These functions worked fine on the stock rom but now whenever I try to search in gmail the "loading conversation" thing comes up and just keeps going forever! I have similar issues trying to view other labels like "Starred" and "Sent mail". This happens even when I am on wifi with a very fast connection so I don't think it is just network speed. Like I said I never had these problems with the stock rom.
I am new to ROMs, so if there is anything I need to wipe or reload please let me know.
More details:
running CM7.0.3
using gmail version 2.3.4.1
I wiped cache and dalvik cache before I updated to CM7.0.3 from 7.0.2
I also tried wiping gmail data in manage applications but that didn't do anything...
I'd appreciate any help thanks!

Mine is working fine, also use CM7. But I'll let u know if smth occurs. Try uninstall gmail and reinst from market...

HTC Buzz Wildfire rooted+2.3.7

Hi i followed your guide to root my htc wildfire and installed 2.3.7 but i cannot log on to google play store, now it doesnt recognise my phone.Do you have to reset something within google to get it working again~?

What do you mean by doesnt recognize you phone? Did you flash gapps?

I guess you have mistakenly clicked decline when google play license agreement popped on your device.
All you need to do is to go to setting then scroll down to applications,then you need to find google play there,click on it and then click on clear data.Again find google services framework and clear its data.Now reboot and wait for 10 minutes after your phone boots.Then try downloading an app,it should work.

hi, thanks for your help guys, i'll try that rightnow, in the meantime, i have just found out i cannot receive calls...i can make them and i can send and recieve texts, just cant recieve calls, have tried another sim card in it and it does the same so it is the phone.Is there a setting i may of mistakenly hit or need to set up again to receive calls in the menu settings? thanks again

Which rom are you using?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA

hiya, cm 7.1.0.1

Can you confirm that you can browse web? You can try reflashing.
Formating all partitions.
Flash cm zip
Flash gapps zip
And then reboot.
And tell me which gapps are you using?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA

Hi yes i can browse web, my gapps is >gapps-ics-20120317-signed
Is there a guide for doing what you have told me, this is the first time i have ever done this and i followed the guide from the forum...lol
Please could you briefly tell me how to:
Formating all partitions.
Flash cm zip
Flash gapps zip
thanks

Now we see your problem.. you are flashing wrong gapps... As you see ics means icecream sandwich i.e android 4.. You should download gapps for cm7 which I think should be like gapps-gb-20110828... I am not sure about the date.. download the correct file. Then flash cm and gapps again by going into recovery and selecting install zip from sd ( you should transfer the zip files to sdcard beforehand).
Here you go

thanks man, ok i'm gonna do what you said and i'll let you know how i get on tomorrow, bedtime now thanks again

Hi, i followed your instructions and everything is now working fine! I reflashed the rom and installed the correct gapp and it corrected the incoming call fault and google play store problem.
Thanks alot for your help....just one question, when i connected to HTC Sync on my computer before i was asked what connection i wanted> charge only, htc sync or mass storage....now it doesnt ask me htc sync and i can only change inbetween charge only and mass storage and i cannot find htc sync to discover my device when i connent via usb to computer....thanks

Htc sync works only for sense based roms like rempuzzle, jokerdroid, kwbr etc.

mi-a1 august update- messages app crashes when clicking on any link in messages text

hi
yesterday it worked for sure
today my mi-a1 asked me to restart due to system update
and now when i click on any link in the messages app it crashes
i also tried to open the messages through contacts+ app, clicking the links there also made it crash
i also updated the messages app to try and solve it, it didn't help
please check it on your phones
can you help?

1. Are You on stock, modified stock (rooted, magisk,...) or custom ROM?
2. Is it Your messaging app or web-browser that crashes?

don't know what it means, the one that comes with the phone as i bought it
2. Is it Your messaging app or web-browser that crashes?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
its the messaging app that crashes not the browser, when i click on a link it doesn't get to the part when it opens the browser, it crashes b4 that part probably

just to be clear, like i get a text message from someone, i open the messages app and click on the text that is actually a link, then it crashes

Me and my friends have the same issue with the messages app and links clicking. Always getting an error message and the app getting crashed.
Is there any solution?

Yay, I'm not alone with this problem
Now maybe someone will look into it
My by pass solution is, you have to copy the entire text from that message cause you can't copy just the link, it will crash
So copy the entire message to a notes app
Then from it copy the link to a browser
Not fun at all, but it works…

I have the same problem. Not a rooted phone.
Please tell me if you have any solution.

Solved :cleared the data of the app
Settings- apps--data - clear data.

your'e a ****en genius!!!
it worked!!
i also noticed that this links problem happens in a couple of my apps on the phone, don't remember which right now
but when i'll see it i'll just go to clear its data :good:
