I did a search in the Rhodium forum but couldn't find anything.
When getting pic messages and other MMS I get the notification and then I go to my text message tab. then it takes me to the usual FWDFWDFWD. Then I have to click on the attached message indicator. This then brings me to the threaded standard Winmo then I can finally click on the mms. Is this an issue with anyone else or am I just being a HUGE newb as indicated by the number of posts.
I thought I was always pretty good at searching that is why I have such few posts. Any help or direction would be appreciated.
yea i have the same issue with mms i send or recieve.
Seems like that's pretty standard with TouchFLO & MMS cuz it's the same as mine.
Still nothing
Is this an issue everyone is having or is there a fix to it?
Any answers?
Can someone with a slide and handcent 3.0.4 test something for me?
Can you try and send yourself a MMS PICTURE and see if handcent will display it?
I'm currently having the follwing issue when the following happens
Send a MMS picture using handcent to another phone using handcent the MMS comes through blank with a <Subject:> only bubble.
HOWEVER if I open the thread in the default messaging the picture is there as a picture (not a slideshow).
If I send a MMS with the default app to another phone using handcent it displays fine. (viewing the same thread in default messaging shows the image as a "slideshow")
If I receive a MMS from a phone using handcent handcent displays it empty (but the default app shows the picture, again as a "image" not slideshow)
I tried this on two slides tonight with the same results. Mine and my sisters. My sisters' had NO other apps installed, just handcent.
I'd really like someone else with a slide to try to send yourself a MMS and post what happens here. (compose a new message, hit menu, hit attach, hit picture, add a picture, hit send)
And maybe try to send another handcent user a MMS the same way and another slide user if possible.
MMS works perfectly as long as its not from another handcent user
I'll check it out in the morning.
My mms won't even go thru on my phone with handcent
I don't do alot of MMS on my phone, but I just tried this for the first time today, and you're correct sir.
Messages just show up blank with the <Subject: no subject> line in there. I also can't seem to send MMS to other people (wife's g1) at all, they just don't make it to her.
Everything works correctly with the stock messaging app, but I really don't like the stock messaging app. Anyone think we could get the apk for the messaging app from a g1 or something?
handcent might need to update the app in order to send the mms properly

Thanks, I'm glad it's not my slides.
Also, can you try to attach from the camera and see if it sends out a pic?
(menu -> attach -> camera, take picture, click send)
It doesn't send anything for me, it just saves a picture on the card.

Same thing. Saves the pic on the card but doesn't actually attach it.
http://bbs.handcent.com might be good to start a thread there, although I asked a question a while back and nobody ever got back to me on it.
yeah I have a long thread going there with a guy.
It's probaby something with the slide and/or sense
It came through 40 min later and was blank. couldn't view it in handcent. i'm gonna send them an email
Has anybody been getting app updates in the market with their MTS with T-Mobile?

Yes. A few days ago I couldn't see Handcent, now I can.
There is an article on phandroid about google fixing something with the market in the past few days.
Handcent is back up and running good
Am I missing something? I can't figure out how to get my G2 to send a regular picture message, It sends and recieves pictures as a slide show for me. Sending a picture from the G2 to a G1, the G1 gets it as a picture message even though it shows up on my phone as a slide show.
Try sending one from yourself. A bunch of the guys I work worth like to forward nsfw pics around all day and if someone who didn't have a smart phone sent it to me it was a slide show, if someone had a smart phone, etc, I got it the right way.

Tried it, sent and recieved as slide show...
I had this problem on my Vibrant as well. I never found a way to solve it so I just dealt with it.

It's a bug. Tmobile is very aware of it. There are some 3rd party free apps in the marketplace that will fix the issue.

Name of those apps, please?
chompsms, I think. I don't have android right now but I read up on the topic. Here's a link.

Yeah. i use handcent. its lightyears better than stock app and has quick reply and quick compose features. ALso no stupid slideshow mode.
thats what i use
Sorry to bring up a dead topic but just wondering if a fix was ever found? I've flashed a new ROM & its having this problem.
I really don't know of any 'fix' for this. Not to mention the fact that the best OS out the can't seem to send a proper mms and not compress it to less than 10kb. No amount of UA spoofing or alternate messaging apps will fix any of this until google addresses the issue. Maybe some one smarter than I can sort through the phones code and find the culprit, then remove it.

Ever since setting my UA to Nexusone I have had zero problems with large MMS.
They download at full size, I just received a 665k MMS today.

What do you mean by "UA"?

Yes, but how about sending? The custom UA doesn't fix that issue, any mms you send will compress to a wicked small file. I've even resized the image to 600Kb and even 300Kb, both were reduced to a measly 6Kb and 8Kb (same with my MT Slide when I used it).
Btw, UA = User Agent.
It's the ID of each model of phone that the network servers use to determine certain features, like mms. When you send an mms it sends messages to the server stating 'message incoming/phone UA' the server then sends back an ok - the message is sent, server sends a receipt.
When a message is sent to you the server sends an invisible text stating 'message waiting/message address/what's your UA ID' the phone then confirms the UA ID. The server then reads the UA and adjusts the message accordingly and says the message is ready, phone then downloads it and sends receipt.
Very long (but quick) process. So yes, changing the UA will help with receiving an mms but the phone, at least in Androids case, is the reason why we can't send a large mms. Since all messaging apps like handcent still rely on the core process used by Android to send messages - there's no way to bypass it completely. You can trick it into sending a 300Kb picture as long as the original size isn't much larger but good luck on 600Kb - 1MB or more, they get downsized to nothing.
Ok, so been on Cyanogen 6.1 for a day now and I am getting duplicate MMS's. The texts are fine, but every pic and slideshow I have downloaded has ended up duplicated.
Am I missing something? Haven't found this issue through google yet.
Wondering now if duplicates from other people is same issue as other one which is I cannot send. Could they both be something to do with corrupt telephony.db?
So you can't send, or getting duplicate mms messages?

Both...get doubles of mms people send and I cannot send mms at all. It says it is making an mms...but send does nothing.

When sending an mms, do you have your 3G on?
Yes, 3G is always on. I never turn that off.
Update though, I just loaded Handcent to see what would happen. Even Handcent cannot do MMS's...this seems to be a phone issue then? (Unless there are some requirements to sending mms on handcent I didn't complete.)
Ok, I have adb'd into the folder where telephony.db lives and deleted it. Now Handcent will send mms but regular text program will not send.
Ok, mms is is working now but my shotgun approach doesn't leave me confident in what actually fixed it.
I tried one solution I found online...delete the telephony.db file. This did nothing for sms/mms. In same folder I found a mmssms.db file and when I renamed that it deleted all my txt history. BUt that didn't solve the issue either.
The next thing I was going to attempt was to clear messaging cache from the manage applications. Instead I clicked on Clear Data.
That is when the messaging app changed. The background had been white, but I never set that, now it is black and all mms and sms since that point have worked fine.
Since I still had an old copy of my mmssms.db I just restored that and I had all my previous txts back.
Not sure if this will help anyone in future...but there is my post effort debrief. :^)
how do i setup my mms
i would like to have cyanogen 7 but i have a cricket flashed evo 4g and dont know how to get my mms to work.....does anyone know?
I have to much memory spent on useless MMS messages. Any ideas on how to delete all mms messages? Or I least how to view only mms messages so I can select and delete??
that matter on what rom your using. gonna need more info
But there can't be that many MMS messages so i would just do it one by one really. like i said idk what rom your using but i would hold on a message and maybe setting will come up to delete that one message.
