When I recieve photos via MMS

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!

only 100 kB MMS picture

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?

tiny mms

hi i have a x1 on o2 uk.. whenever i recieve a picture message the pictures are very tiny is there a way to fix this?
yeah there is i downloaded 3 files installed to and it works now cnt remember what they are but there are links on here simwhere
when on SMS message screen
menu>MMS Options> Photo resolution: Original
i think that is it
i checked and the photo resolution is already set to original
I think these setting refer to when you send mms, and not when you receive. Did you ask the people sending you the mms, if they have some setting that compress the image?
its with anyone who sends an mms, ive got 5 different people to try
Hey, yes it's a problem that occurs when you change from the original rom on your phone, because the operator will normally customise the mms settings for your phone and their network. It's quite an easy fix though, look at the bottom 3 posts here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=531527

Cannot send MMS

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.
