If you haven't gotten an answer to your issue , post your question here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=444276
isnt there a "show full screen" or something like that? i dont use that phone anymore...so i dont have it in front of me. but i recall something of that nature
I HAD TO HARD RESET MY BLUE ANGEL AND THERE ARE SOMETHINGS I NEED BACK ON IT..BUT I CANT REMEMBER ALL WHAT I HAD IN MY PROGRAMS...I KNOW I NEED MMS COMPOSER..I KNOW I HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH ACRSOFT..AND SOMETHING ABOUT MY NETWORK..BUT I DONT KNOW WHERE TO FIND..I KNOW I AM NOT GIVING MUCH INFO PLEASE HELP
first of all, lose the caps lock, that is extremely impolite.
2ndly: the mms composer software is called arcsoft mms, you are right, different versions are floating around the forum and some of which can be found -=here=-.
for all the other software, no one knows, we can hardly guess what you had installed
for issues as unimportant as this, please don't start new threads like this was a major thing, please use the Questions and Answers thread next time. it can be found -=here=-.
I have seen this question brough up but after looking didn't see any answers. I have tried using the stock mms as well as Handcent and Chomp. I have changed the settings to 1mb but still out going message ends up 7kb to 20kb. The person on the other end gets a picture that you need bottle caps to see.
I did a search on this and found resolves for other phones as well as a simple check your settings but nothing else.
I did come across this link below but don't know of anyone else that has done these steps.

Too funny. Yeah I posted this originally and no answers.

I called Sprint and asked them why I have a HUGE screen, BIG Camera and tiny MMS. They told me this is a known issue and will be fixed in next release. I personally think they just saying that to satisfy my curiosity. They told me it was an Evo only thing. They could save lots of money if people send 16kb MMS instead of 300kb to 2mb which the phone should allow. I think most phones and providers allow 300kb to 1mb.
I did read a thread where they modified it for the G1.

It looks like other people are starting to get annoyed with this also, but nobody has attempted to modify.
I am sure if you want to modify the mms.apk, which I looked at and could not find any settings regarding the size limit, you would still have to root your phone and unlock NAND to modify it.

I am opening up grabbing the information off my phone now to dig deeper. If I get anything working I'll repost what I did.

I have the same experience using handcent. Even sending the pic to an email causes the same behavior.
Im surprised by the lack of posts in this thread? Does anybody not have this issue?
I can't even send MMS, for some reason. I get them ok, but sending does nothing. Dont even get an error. Could someone post their APN settings? It is grayed out on my phone, but at least it will tell me if that is the issue.

i guess nobody uses mms? lol i certainly dont haha if i take a picture worth sharing i just upload it to facebook right then and there...i mean we have really fast 3g and if you want super speed use 4g. i was able to upload 25 pictures all at once to facebook using 4g in about 4 mins...
Yeah...haven't sent a MMS since I got the Evo on June 4th...
My Palm Pre (Sprint) was able to send an MP3 to another phone 2-4MB no problem, but this darn phone.... So I know it's possible just gotta find the right segment of code to change.
Wait a second...never heard of this before. So I just ran a test...a 1mpixel photo mms'd to my other phone. Right off the bat it resized it for the message..something about 'photo too large'. But it went so fast I couldn't read whole message.
When I open the sent message, the photo is now only about 2/3's size of the screen and only 70k.
This is crap!
Damn it. Tooke a photo from the Raphael and sent back to Evo. A 3mpixal pic left the Raphael no problem...and showed up on Evo at 60k. WHAT THE HELL?!?!
Calling Sprint first thing. I bailed on the iphone 3g for three major issues. One of which was no MMS. This is huge to me. CRAP.
Here is a thread with mms .apk stuff. I do not have root and still not OTA...so this won't help me yet, but maybe for someone else?
(Hint, they modified mms_config.xml-files ??)
Ok, ran another test today...sent pics from my two phones to a friend...and had her reply with pic from her phone to my two.
Both pics from me were taken at 1mega pixel....she got one at 40k (Raphael) and one at 17k (Evo).
She sent same pic from her camera to both my phones...Raphael got one at 210k (1600*1200) and the Evo got it at 77.9k (640*480).
Now I kinda just glossed over the FPS issue...but now I am seriously getting upset about having my phone with this wonderful screen get messed up shrunken images. I have a high quality camera and I can only send out tiny azz'd pics. Now I have reached the point of being upset with a super/smart phone that has been crippled.
You gotta love how they have great specs on the phone and the programmatically dummy it down.

I thought it was only me. I hate sending a 720p photo abs the person I send them to replies with...."the photo is really small" and yes the phone does resize the images. It blows
bump on this mms does suk on the evo
Yes it does suck I sent an 8mp photo to a friend and I swear it looked like she got a cif res photo
I brought this up in the store last week...they just kinda went...'Uh huh.' Seemed like they knew but weren't interested in discussing.
We need to hack this as it seems ONLY the Evo does the pre-resizing and then Sprint's system has an auto resize on tope off that.
I am learning android as fast as I can....as this doesn't seem to bug a lot of people...and I'll just have to look at it myself.
(Unless someone else knows more?)
Here's a workaround until I can actually find how to fix it in the HTC version(I've only been able to decrease image quality so far )

MMS Resizing on EVO
Hey - I know the last post was 3 days ago... Just wondering if anyone made any headway on it? I'm going to go to the last link that was posted for the AOSP MMS program, but it looks like there might be some issues with it... Rather stick with stock SMS/MMS program without any of the issues... And have this darn resizing thing fixed. It's a load of bull.
The most advanced phone on the market and seems to be the most limited when it comes to doing what it's made for! Being a multimedia device! I feel horrible sending someone a picture the size of my thumbnail when they can send me something that can be zoomed in 10x without any deterioration lol.
Def lookin forward to hearing what you find @Caulkin.
This is weird because with my Palm Pre (Sprint) I could send an MP3 or photo (2-4MB) to another phone via MMS with no problems. With the HTC EVO for some reason it doesn't send pictures or MP3's higher than a certain MB. Which means somewhere in the code the software limits the size of a MMS message.
I take a picture with my phone and try to send it to one of my contacts; it ends up putting it in a "slideshow" (CRAP quality) which reduces the size from 2-3MB to a few hundred KB's. It is very aggravating when this phone can take such high quality pictures and I am unable to share them with my friends.
So I am hoping that someone else (whom can do something about it) is POed with this and can attempt to find the root of this issue and develop a fix PLEASE!
I understand Sprint probably wants to limit bandwidth usage, but for me, I take a lot of pictures and like to share them with my friends. You may ask, why not use Facebook or an other image sharing site..... problem is they limit the size and/or resolution of the photos too!
It is in the User Agent profile but I have not figured out how to change it. This was brought up twice in the Evo thread but no answers.

Well most will receive 300kb but it auto resizes to like 16kb. It wouldnt be that bad if we could get at least 300kb.
Also OP this should be in the Q&A section
Is it possible to change the limit so we are able to send like a mp3 5mb file at least
If you pull the mms apk and look at the xml you can find the max mms values. I worked on this for a while but gave up when Handcent started sending files more toward my liking.
I have found there are some carriers and even types of phones that flat can not receive pics from my Evo.
