what about just sending MMS? My friend couldn't see it cause it said it was too large... is it not auto resizing the pictures?

When I receive or send MMS they show up as slideshows. Not a straight up image anymore, which makes it smaller. Anyone know how to fix this?

Also how do yo save the pictures that are recieved.

I have the same issue with a single picture being sent to me and the phones displays it as a slide show and there is now way that I see how to save that picture to my gallery. Is there a way to do this?

I'm using handcent sms and it handles mms fairly easy.

Mms comes as a slideshow

I know I've seen this discussed before but I can't find it. Pictures always come as a slideshow instead of just a picture. For the life of me, I can't figure out how to change that, or if I can. Anyone have any input? Thanks

I thought that was just the way it worked on this phone. You mean you can have pictures just display as pictures? tell me more!

Heh. Seems random on mine. Sometimes they come as a slideshow and sometimes as just a picture. Maybe it has to do with the phone or carrier it comes from? No idea.

not really sure if the carrier, or the phone.
i've got a friend that sends me pics from her iPhone, and from her specifically, they sometimes come as one, sometimes the other.
might have to do with filesize?

Weird stuff, its not abig deal...a little annoying though

Since we are on this topic, why do long texts get split up, I was on tmobile and it never did that, I figured it is network related

CDMA (Sprint and Verizon) has a 160-character limit. T-Mobile and AT&T are GSM.
Well, from reading, everyone has a 160-character limit, but many GSM phones just allow you keep writing and it'll split them into separate 160-character messages on the receiving handset. Many phones now just split it automatically, regardless of network, such as our EVOs.
I'm not really all that well-versed on these technologies. Just a stab in the dark here!

Makes sense, I don't know much about either

That slide show does not happen on the sense ui does it?

Actually my experience has been that it ONLY happens on Sense.

Interesting, I wonder if it is just a sense ui 'flaw'. Have you used an aosp rom and not had it happen?

On CyanogenMod, if someone sends me a single image, it just comes as a picture. I click it, it opens, and I can look at it until I'm done. Which is nice, because I don't have to try to soak it all in in 5 seconds before the one-slide slide show ends! But if someone sends me multiple images at once it is still a slideshow.

That makes sense, maybe ill try a different ron, I've been lookin at vaelpak's latest.

Well the thing is the for some reason HTC did that as feature.like people say but if you tap on the image then look down there is a pause button to see the pic for longer l

Yea I knew that, and there is a save button too. Just curious if there was an option to change it, same with split long messages, that annoys me more than the mms slideshow

SMS messaging replacement recs?

Ok, I really don't like the stock ICS SMS messaging app. Looking at playstore, it seems the Go SMS is the most popular replacement. Anyone have recs for other apps to consider?

Handcent is a good one. highly customize app

I used to love handcent until I tried gosms and haven't looked back. Very customizable and plenty of themes to choose from. That'd be my pick

Go sms and hand cent seem to be the two popular ones

Hnadcent for me

I think you mean you don't like the stock touch wiz messaging app?
i LOVE the stock ICS sms app (pure google ics app with the green logo) but hate the samsung touchwiz app...i hate how every mms is a slideshow
I tried handcent back on my captivate and it crippled my phone. Thought I'd try it again over a year later and it made the phone instantly almost unuseable. Don't understand it. Pissed me off so much i wrote my first review on the market lol.
I tried to go with a stock ics app from the market, but it was taking a few extra minutes to get my texts.
Went with GoSMS and its useable until I get on a pure google rom.

I'm giving Go Pro a try, if only because it seems "prettier" than Handcent. Stupid reason, but anything is better than the stock SMS client.

I used handset forever... Then tried gosms one day and never looked back. It's themes are nicer, and it never crashes. Love it.... I too hate every stock sms app I have ever used, except for htc.

The last time I checked GO SMS on my Droid X it didn't allow me to use individual alerts for different contacts. Does stock do that or does GO do that now? That's a feature I love about Handcent.

Is that Go or the S3 app you're referring to? Just want to be sure I understand...

I was used to the MIUI SMS app, and loved how it told me when a message was received by the person.
Any of the replacement apps do that? I tried it with handcent and didn't work.

Go. I think it had a whole think under the settings called individual settings or something, and you can add individual notifications etc I believe. Download it and check it out.

I think I also saw something in handcent somewhere in the settings where you can also get alerts/notifications when something was sent or delivery confirmation...something like that.
Download Go and check it out.

I can confirm that Go Pro supports individual ringtones. Just set them myself today.

[Q] Emojis on MJ7

Hi, guys! I know that probably most of you don't care about the emojis but I found that there are a few of them missing and I wondered if anyone of you knows if you can input them with the stock keyboard.. Here are some screenshots:
These are the ones the Samsung keyboard has:
These are the missing ones:

I think they are the same one but samsung decided to use different icons for them.

i noticed when i use them in message they come up as mms does that mean they cost to send them

I meant that I can't input the ones from the second picture using the stock keyboard :silly:

Okay, Hangouts was updated with the SMS feature. We can sent emoji using SMS through it and it won't convert it to MMS.
While the Stock samsung's messaging app converts it to MMS as soon as emoji is input.

MMS notification

I'm using handcent with light manager and am unable to get notifications when I receive a MMS text.. Regular texts work just fine.. Any ideas?
Thank you
Kyle

I'm sure you did this but there are separate notifications in light manager. One for SMS and one for MMS. Did you activate a set color for MMS? It works fine for me with stock message app.

Maybe email the dev and attach a log..

I did that and they ended up making me a beta version which fixed the issue.

Always makes me really happy when I write a developer about an app I'm having trouble with and they respond quick and fix the issue. That's a good dev. Wish everyone was like that. Unfortunately they aren't all but I sure like when it does happy. Glad you got it resolved. ?
