Vzw mms pictures not loading to send - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys anyone have this issue?
Open messaging. Hit the paper clip to send a picture via mms. It opens gallery but will not load the photo.
You have go to gallery first then pick the photo and share to our messaging.

Why do images come up as videos on MMS?

Sometimes I get a picture in an MMS and it not displayed unless I click on the play button. Then it goes blank after a couple seconds. It's a picture, not a video. Does this happen to anyone else?

It's not coming up as a video it's coming up as a slideshow,
it has to do with the nature of how MMS does pictures. When you send just one picture it's like just one frame of a slideshow.

[Q] "your phone is not compatible with this message type or size..."

My friend has an iPhone 4. When he sends me a pic through mms i get "your phone is not compatible with this message type or size. portions of this message will not be displayed". he is just sending a picture he took not anything else. i reboot and ask him to resend and still no luck. the only thing that does work is when he zooms in on the pic then takes a screenshot of it then sends it to me.
Does anyone know why this happens? its pretty annoying.
i attached a screenshot of how it looks
Lol, check the size of pictures. I think mms only supports 640x to 320x
I have this probleme too when I send one mms picture to a old phone. I resize and works

Maybe try a different sms app like GoSMS? That's what I've been using and haven't had any issues with mms... plus it allows me to zoom into pictures which the stock text messaging app wouldn't allow.
That makes sense. It would be great if there wasn't any ristriction. Or like if would automatically resize the picture before it revives or something lol.

I also use handcent. It gives me the same problem. I'm gonna try the application you mentioned. Hopefully it works for me.

Interesting.... I've received pictures from my brothers iPhone 4 just fine. That's using the stock text messaging app.

Anyone find a solution for the MMS Slideshow issue?

So everytime I get a mms the picture wants to open is slideshow, which is really annoying. Has anyone found a way to make it open in gallery like normal? I don't want to long press and save and all that. I just want it to open in gallery when I touch it.
Same happened if I try to send a pic. It never sends and when I click on pic it opens like it is a video.

i downloaded handcent for just opening and sending pictures, it doesnt compress them as much when sending them as well. test it yourself, send a pic to yourself, see how low the quality is, now send a pic to yourself with handcent
I wondered if it was me only! Had the same issue. I had been using handcent for almost a year and thought I'd try the 'messaging' app as I like the split screen in landscape mode. . . Because of this wired slide show issue and the white background setting never really working and the inconsistent send issue (with mms) I switched back to handcent.
Works well! Note: I had one or two mms no send issues with handcent (overall huge reduction from 'messaging' - which was near 99%) - I added '80' as my mms port in apn settings. . . I don't think I have had a send hang since.

Trouble sending MMS?

Is anyone having trouble with the stock messaging app stuck permanently "sending" MMS? Anyone know a fix?
If no one knows a fix for this... Perhaps someone can recommend a messaging app that works correctly in multi-app mode? I send a lot of pictures and want to be able to have gallery and messaging app open and be able to drag and drop pics into the messaging app.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Try to clear the cache for the default messaging app that will clear alot of problems. This is the first thing to do with a problem app.

Update... MMS go through fine when I'm not at home (not using wifi) but when I'm on wifi they won't go through... I'm almost certain that I sent a couple over wifi when I first got the phone last week.
Clearing the cache did not make a difference, thank you for the idea tho.

Just an FYI....MMS doesn't go over WiFi. It gets sent with mobile data.
I fixed the problem with a factory data reset ... now it will again send MMS while signed into wifi

I've had this happen a couple times. Each time I turned off wifi then rebooted the phone. Connected to 4G and sent.

Sorry to bring up an old posting, but I am still having this issue with MMS on wifi or off. I can receive them just not send them out.

[Q] Recieved MMS images not showing?

Recently I have been having issues with people sending me pictures and them not showing up. I get the mms but the picture shows up as an image icon with an orange triangle with an ! in the middle. I can save the attachment and the picture will show up as a thumbnail in the gallery but when I open it the picture shows for a second then shows an icon of a ...person maybe...with a lightning bolt. Any idea? I was thinking maybe the image was too large but that doesn't make much sense since you can't send huge pictures via mms. Any insight is appreciated.
I am having the exact same problem. Can't find a solution anywhere. Any ideas yet?
The mms apn setting is not correct. I'm on Telus and under my apn settings type is says default,mms with NO spaces.
If there is a space between the comma and mms then picture messaging is broken.

I've never messed around with the APN settings. Other MMS come in just fine. I just read it might be affecting MMS received by iPhone users on the new iOS7. Can anyone else confirm this?
Nope. I get pic messages from 3 different people all running iOS 7 on a 4s,5, and 5s with no issues
