Just get my SGS2 but have MMS problem - Galaxy S II General

Why is it that when I get or send a pic it shows up as an 8 sec video?? Someone sent me a pic and it showed as a vid and then I sent someone a pic and it also showed on the out going as an 8 sec video?
UK model and I am with AT&T in the U.S.

This is standard with the stock messaging on ALL ANDROID DEVICES.

Really? Sgs2 is my fourth android device, yet the only one to exhibit this behaviour.

Same here, S2 on US AT&T
quite annoying!

+1
It's really annoying. I haven't been able to find any working solutions online, and I really don't want to have to resort to using a third-party app like Handcent or something.

Mod for this been around a long time if its the correct one .

Is the YouTube update working fine on your G2?

Well, I just had my G2 replaced today from T-Mobile, and to tell you the truth my new G2 has been working better than my pre-release one. Even the hinge is good. Oh, and the new Youtube works great!

Mine works perfectly HQ and Non-HQ.

It crashed on me the first time I used it after my install. Very troublesome..
Likewise its a major problem with the g2 I checked a lot of the market comments they're saying the same thing so I uninstalled
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
Yup....I just tried it, and it crashed
I uninstalled the update and now it's fine. I hope they fix this soon cause I really like the new UI
I just tried it and it lagged the phone when I quit the app. Everything was responding incredibly slowly - about 15 seconds to flip from one launcher page to the next.
I was finally able to execute a power off sequence and reboot the phone. When it was done booting and the widgets had all settled down I tried viewing the same video again (the "I want an iPhone" animated video) and everything was fine until I quit the video and then the phone was wedged again (15 seconds to switch home pages).
Time to uninstall (if my phone ever reboots)...
works fine here
Thanks guys! Looks like it's split pretty evenly for the most part.
One more question for those that visit other parts of xda - heard anything of the same thing happening on other phones?
At this point, it seems like a big issue, I hope t-mobile posts an update soon.

Either or can do it. T-mobile through an OTA (they've had to do this before for an issue), or the app creator. It all depends on the circumstance. I'm betting the fix will come from tmobile's side though. Not that I would depend on them, I just have a hunch.
Eveything is working fine here. On a side note the people that are having probelms are you logged in?
I remeber back on my g1 I had problems with youtube only when I was sign in

hi i didnt want to start a new post but i have a prob with youtube i was going to upload a 4min video from my g2 but it keeps saying you can not upload a video larger than 1gb i know a 4min vid is not over 1g can anyone give me a hand im not new to android so i know something is set wrong are im missing something
Its probably an HD video and Id assume the mobile youtube version does not allow you to upload that large of a file. Your best bet, upload it to your computer and to do it from their.
i cant even find the vid on the phone with my pc how do i get in to the gallery the vid says location unknown and its not showing a file size i took the vid on the g2s camera

[Q] Reader's Hub

I keep reading about the Reader's Hub that comes on the Galaxy Tab, yet mine doesn't have one and I don't see one in the Market. Was this not included in the T-Mo versions or am I completely missing something????
Euro only. Do a search. Lemme know if u csnt find apk i will upload
Sent from my SGH-I987 using XDA App
Thanks for the quick reply. I loaded the APK this morning and it's pretty bad ass. I just couldn't figure out why I didn't have it stock. That kind of sucks, it seems the Europeans get everything and we get a stripped down version. Don't get me wrong, it's the best device I have ever had, phone or otherwise, but phone calling ability and that readers hub would make it that much better.

Application Developer looking for work/ideas.

Hello XDA,
I have been programming for well over six years in various languages. I am currently 17, and I want to get something done for even more experience...I have never released an application, which is why I am looking for work. I will help on any application, or I can take some application requests...
Thank you for reading!!

I'm looking for a software that will take a picture with both my cameras at the same moment. I use a galaxy tab and i was quite disappointed when i noticed that it's not able to do so!
I thouhgt this would be the first idea someone would implement, i was convinced it would be in the stock samsung firmware.
So what i think of:
Preview for both cameras
possibility to take a few pics in a row
geotagging
So i can take pics of my family AND the landscape on my vacation.
Feel free to take this idea; i would be happy to find such an app!
And there's still no working flashlight (camera flash!) on the market that works for my galaxy tab.

[App] xda premium

I am surprised no one has brought it up yet here. Running great on my evo! Loads everything properly, which the free app waant for me. Loads it a little faster too so far! Hopefully they release more themes. Only negative is it doesn't seem to hide the status bar.

If you use your phone's search button within the App, you can successfully search? I get immediate FC and many have the same problem.
I'm more curious about the other FCs - that others have seen as well - when doing something random like changing a page or viewing an attached image. Seems like it happens most when the app has been open for a while. Can almost expect it at times. Might have to check this premium version out, didn't even know it WAS out! Thanks.

I fully agree with you with my HTC Vision running stock froyo.
Search is a 100% FC.
To avoid the other type I have always to get out the topic and exiting XDA App, before minimizing/doing something else.
Is this version solving?
I'll probably buy it just to support xda. However every single time I back out of a topic after I have been out if the app for a few mins or the next time I open it, I always get a force close. Every single time I can replicate it. I have to restart the app so it wont force close
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I cant tell you... i never got these fcs... i must have a magic phone. I am flashing another rom haha. So i will tell you if search causes fc soon.
Edit: the search button does nothing at all now... lol
It's a good looking app... also Ad-free! Only available for a limited time.. so for a dollar, may as well get it while you can.
Paid XDA is still plagued with same issues as free. Back to tapatalk

Possible to sms/mms and make call from the 3G version SOLVED

I try asking here, because I find different answers around. Is it possible to use sms or mms straight out of the box?

No one in this forum got the 3G version and can tell me before I order

I use Textplus on my wifi 10.1, it does sms and mms through wifi and it's free
Sent from my GT-P7510 using XDA Premium App
Ive got the 10.1v which comes with 3g and we definately dont have send sms/mms capabilities straight out of the box. not sure how other people are able to have it.
I also havent found another app that gives the tablet that option to send sms/mms on its own, but will have a look at this textplus app mentioned above.
You could use the textab program ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133277 ) but this app relies on your phone being connected to the device and uses the phones sms send receive function, merely displaying the messages on the tab and allowing you to send a message through the tablet.
and we are unable to make calls either, no dialer program, and havent really looked but dont think there would be one that would be honeycomb compatible for download from the market.
This i was afraid of! I have seen some sales spec. say can sent sms/mms. I have a wifi us version now, and i not find textplus etc not really that great.
I want to be able to text sms direct from the 3g - otherwise the model is useless for me.

Keep in mind that the 10.1v is a somewhat older device than the 10.1 - so there may be features in the (brand new, just hitting the market) 10.1 3G not present in the older (available in some other countries for at least some time) 10.1v 3G.
someone can confirm if the 10.1 3g is able to sms??
I asked 5 shops now - and got different answers!!

Thanks for the info, but I NOT interested in any web solutions. I just want to know if the 3g version can or can not sent sms - out of the box.
I quess nobody actually know it - even Samsung seems to be in doubt LOL

i've got the 10.1v. it definetly can't send sms out of the box. there's no such sms-app on the tablet. i guess it's the same with the 10.1
but installing an app like chompsms should enable the 3g tablets to send sms through their sim-card, not a web-service. (did not test that, because i don't need sms functionality on my tablet. for this i use my mobil )
i know chompsms and thats a greart app. I used it on my phone before.
If chomp is working on the tab - i can live with it - as it have far more features.
Thanks. . .
