On the 3d, developers raised the mms sending limit to 10mb. I was wondering if we were going to get that implemented with the customs rom also because every time I try to send a video, it says it's to large? I could send large videos on the 3d.
Thanks

I have a 11sec video and I cant send it that's a pretty small file and it wont send....
Is there a mod I can do or can some please help me....
TIA Shaun
It was taken in hd ? And if you long click on it will tell you how big it is under properties .....but rule of thumb is 1 mb for any video or pictures and that is htc and samsung etc they are all like that,.....that its why devs on 3d will up that to 5mb but none of the roms we have .....have done this yet .....

MMS attachment size is 1mb max. It's not the phone's fault that your video is way over that limit. Sms is not meant for HD video.
There is a limit for sms setting you should use for this express purpose.
send it via email, and it will go with no problem..
I sent a 15 meg video via gmail today, and it went through easy peasy..

Does anyone have a remedy to this? My phone takes amazing pictures and videos and we all know that but it says shrinking for mms and after i send it my picture clarity is horrible and u cant see much. Im wondering if there is a way to stop this?? Thanks all!!

This is more a function of your carrier than your device. The carriers have set limits to the size mms they will let you send.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
I understand that and im actually a sales rep. My evo and 3d and any other phone with a good camera never downgraded the pictures nearly as much as my epic touch. It takes the quality down way past what it should.

I find if I take the picture in a lower megapixel like 640x480, there is no degradation in image quality once sent via mms. Kinda defeats the purpose, i know, but it is what it is.....
Just email the pic to your friends/families phones. The [email protected](insert carrier).com That may produce better quality since the wont compress the pic.
I rarely mms pics anymore unless it is to a someone with a dumb/feature phone. I either email or send a link to my picasa album.
Use a third party app like handcent or Go SMS.. I customized my handcent app to look just like the stock epic touch SMS app because I like that look.

Use either a 3rd party app like the lerson above me states. Or use dropbox, upload the pic 2 dropbox, m copy n public link, n send that link to whomever

its definitely something on the software side not the carrier side

I agree some of our amazing devs have to be able to do something about it. No way it has to be that hard to send a good pic on this phone
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
This is a pretty common issue with many android phones. Because of the 1mb mms limit the phones must compress the picture. For some reason they seem to like to compress them down to uner 100kb insted of just under 1mb. I dont know if there's any way to fix this other than to take smaller pictures so there wont be any compression.
So every time I send a screencap people always tell me the text is blurry and can't read it. Today I tried sending the same pic but used handcent and the quality was a whole lot better. Anybody knows why the stock messaging compresses mms into such a bad quality? It's not noticeable on pictures of ppl or things just when sending a picture with text on it. Hmm?

Yes. Unfortunately you have to run something like go SMS and change the send size if u want crisp mms.
Or email em

I don't know if this occur to me as well but i can tell you that when i send an MMS it just stays like "on a loop" (Sending it) like FOR HOURS!!! It's insane, & yes, I'm running stock for now just to know how the phone works by himself without any tweaks... (I'm not giving it much time now, I've heard A LOT OF AWESOME THINGS & ROMS in here; so please don't judge me ...)
Is there something that I need to change for this
I guess I can email them about it. Thanks for the reply.

Sounds like you need to call Sprint and have them refresh your data connection. Mine sends them in like 1-3 seconds.

No prob! Hope that helps it did for me when I had the same problem on my Evo. It wasn't configured right so my mms wouldn't go thru.

I've used a couple of modified MMS apk's and nothing seems to help. I first noticed while sending screenshots. Then for testing, I sent myself a few full size photos taken with the camera. Still look like crap.
Is there a way to fix this? Is there an AOSP messaging app I should be using? I've had all the galaxy phones, all the nexus phones and I recall, I think, that I used to use an aosp MMS apk to resolve my issue. I'm currently using a modified tw mms apk that claimed to increase file size limits, other limits, etc.. Maybe I'm misunderstanding.
Any help towards reaching the goal of high quality, not low res/pixelated MMS messages would be greatly appreciated. Stock TW would be nice but not adverse to using aosp MMS.
Thank you for your time.

im pretty sure picture messages are compressed before they are sent, which means a downgrade in quality.
How much of a downgrade is normal? someone else should be able to answer that better then me

Yeah i wanna know too. Nottach/Wanam used to have the option for max mms size but its been removed for a while. Though i remember when i set it to the highest my mms didnt get delivered. It depends on both carriers involved. Damn txt sucks

I agree.
They look so bad, I won't even send MMS anymore. Today I emailed a couple of pictures to a friend. Which is horribly inconvenient for the recipient.

I guess it depends on how the Rom is tweaked. Mms pictures work fine on the wicked Rom.
Once I reach the character max for the first message I can't go past that! Why! Whyyyyyy!?

It should split when you send mine does. Try a third party sms like gosms or chomp sms.

Sprint is CDMA network and has trouble with more than 160 characters. If you're on a custom rom, like AOKP or CM, there generally is an option in sms settings to auto-split.
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda app-developers app
I use Sprint's stock messaging app and have no trouble sending messages longer than 160 characters, and they split properly on the other end. Do you get an error message or anything when you hit 160? Mine counts down characters to 0/160 and then continues on with 160/160, 159/160, etc.

^^^ This. I also use stock messaging app and never had any issues. I also use the auto-combination feature and when people send me messages longer than 160 characters it combines them back into one message. It says it only work from Galaxy to Galaxy phones but that's a lie. My sister has the EVO LTE and when she sends me long messages they come in one whole text.

I'm running MC2 4.1.2 stock rooted and have auto-combination checked, but messages still come in split, at least from my son's AT&T iPhone. Is there anything else that should be set to get it working, or is it an iPhone thing?

Maybe it's because she's with a different carrier. Another cool thing is that my sisters EVO is also combining long messages too by default. However you still see the 1/2 - 2/2 on her EVO unlike our Galaxy which does a better job.
Edit: Nope it don't work from ATT iPhones. I just received my cousins text in two..
