ok so i sent myself a pic which was org. 200k but when i recieved it, it was like 3k
and the size of the picture was super small
is there any way of fixing this so i can get the ORG. size?
it depends both on your network and on your OS. generally, certain resolutions are reduced.
there is a limit, therefore you can't receive EVERY image with its original size.
try the wspheader.cab from this post

I have checked the forums for an answer to this problem but couldn't find one.
I recently purchased a Vario II on t-mobile. I think its a cracking gadget, but I've always been a big picture sender, and I have a niggle - on its highest quality picture settings the vario II produces pictures larger than 300k. When I try to send them I get a message that it can't send pictures over 300k - annoying, but usually countered by the fact that every normal handset I've had shrinks pictures to the requisite size before sending.
This being a pocket pc I would assume it would hardly be processor-hungry if the app just shrunk pictures down a bit for me (when necessary).
Sure I could knock my quality settings down a bit - but what about when I want to send bluetoothed/copied photos from other sources (such as my digital camera)?
I used to do this regularly on my old sony ericsson.
I love my Vario, but this annoys me, and if I can help it I'd rather not have to shrink all my bloody pictures down with a third-party photo editing app before sending them. It seems like a crazy oversight on the part of the manufacturer!
I sincerely hope that I've simply overlooked something, but if not does anyone know where I can get a patch/alternative mms sending application for my vario?
it would be very much appreciated!
Hmm.. I'm not sure about you.. but if you go to your messaging application (the default one), bottom right `Menu`->`MMS Configuration` at the `Preference` Tab, at the bottom of the page, you see the 'Photo Resolution`. Try lowering that.
I'm using Charmer, but ought to be the same since it is WM5.
I only wish that would work - That's the retrieval resolution, though I have tried it.
Seems ridiculous that you can automatically alter the resolution of photos that you receive, but not ones you send!
PLEASE please please someone must know!
From messaging; Menu -> Tools -> Options -> MMS -> Scroll down to Photo Resolution" and change it to a smaller size. Just tested it and it worked for outgoing on my TyTN Rom!

I have tried that - on all resolutions, though in fairness not with an original image from the camera, this is a 700k image from a Nokia phone. No matter what resolution I change to it still gives me the error message!
Anyone got any idea what it could be?
I don't see why it would matter that the photo is off a different camera. the principal of shrinking a jpeg is still the same surely.
I have a T-Mobile Vario II. It has had no modifications done to it at all
Hmm... that is weird. Probably the 'shrinking' feature uses some of the JPG header to determine its size and such (e.g. dumb programmer who uses weird ways of doing things).
Anyway, if you have spaces left around your phone, there are some software that is able to resize photos available for WM5 (or at least WCE200x). For your case, you may want to resize it manually before sending.. I guess.
I tried a few of the ROMs here on my Tilt already. I noticed on a couple of them that the sending size for the MMS was set at the old 300Kb limit. I often send stuff that is right at the 600Kb limit and want to keep that limit.
I noticed on a few of the cooked ROMs the limit was 300Kb, and I couldn't figure out a way to change it, even going through configuration and settings.
So, my questions are as follows (and, yes I did search)-
Is there a way to change it that I'm just not seeing (short of maybe a regedit?)?
What ROM are you running, and what is your sending limit? (this is the one I came up with no answer at all for when searching)
Could this have to do with a particular MMS install .cab file? (similarly I didn't see an answer for this one. Lots of cab links, but no specs on the limit)
Thanks!
EDIT: Dangit, I put this in the wrong forum. I meant to put it in the Kaiser forum.

By "short of a regedit" do you mean you DON'T want to edit the registry? You may find a cab for ARCSoft or whatever MMS client you're using that has the larger sending size limit. But it would probably be quicker to just change it manually by editing the registry. Check this post for the Hermes, most likely it will work on the Kaiser also.

@over2land: I have been wondering about this also!
@hotmail: Thanks for your reply - I changed registry items per your post in the Hermes thread and now have 600 limit. I didn't find any registry keys with title of Wap1SendLimit_x - so I just changed the SendLimit keys, and also changed the ReceiveLimit keys, and Voila! good to go!

If regedit is the only way to do it, I'll do that. Right now I'm back on the ATT OE ROM and radio, since I'm on ATT, it works for me. I get the 600Kb limit. But, the cooked ROMs are typically faster and have more storage, so at some point I'll end up going back to a cooked ROM.
I was hoping that there was some setting going through the phone's UI that I could change. Even though I've regedited every phone I've had, I'm not 100% on regediting this one just yet.
I am using ARCsoft... I was hoping to avoid having to DL every .cab I can find for that limit. I was figuring if people posted their cabs or thier ROMs with the 600Kb limit, then someone like myself who didn't want to necessarily reg edit the phone would have some recourse.
I think I have a cab that's got the 600k mod in it. if you want it, let me know.
RR ATT settings cab

I'm guessing the 3mb limit does not apply to AT&T's network? Or do they support a 3mb file going out?

Not sure about ATT but I installed this cab and went into the MMS settings and changed the limit to 3mb but I've only sent out a 1mb file or so over the Tmobile network. Works good
Does it cost more to send a larger mms?

i've installed the .cab , where did u change the limit? in the registry?
Hello,
how can I revert the setting to 300kb back?

I'm stuck here too... anybody???
For the 3MB one, and in the same post is the 600kb one. Post also includes a .gif on how to.

is there any app or any way to make your mms space to be bigger? i tried sending ringtones and the biggest size it would let me send is like 236kb which was like 16 seconds of it sometimes it didn't even let me send 10 seconds.....
Bump..... Id like to know to
I belive it depends on the carrier. This MMS size restriction is set by the service provider and nothing in the phone can change it. Sad... but fact..
I know T_Mobile can send/receive files up to 300 in size
windows mobile u can adjust it to send up to 1.2m..... so it has to be possible with the g1
WM up to 1.2M?!?!
I had/has a dash with WM and since i have T-Mobile i could only hack it up to 300
What phone did/do you use?

Its possible I have a wing and dash. They both can send up to 1.2Mb by doing a regedit (registry edit).
So it may be the Android OS holding us back
Maybe i was thinking of receiving a file bigger then 300
I dont know my head hurts from following a few threads today.
Maybe it is Android that someone needs to explore.
well in my older phone that i had i sent one once that was 1.6mb it was a nokia 6133 so i think it is possible to make send a larger size but it doesnt let me
yep this is determined by the network so although the phone might support it doesnt mean the file will send over the network.
but i dont think it even goes to the network because when i try to attach it a pop up message comes up saying i cant send that file but if lets me send the same types of files if its 360kb or smaller
Not worth the effort but really want a profile picture for xda account. Have resized several images but none will upload. Just keeps saying upload failed. :crying: This is a big problem and will be thanked massively.
Hmm that is a bit strange. I had no trouble uploading an avatar on here. You should make sure that the maximum size of your custom image is 80 by 80 pixels or 19.5 KB (whichever is smaller). If your image fits those parameters then it might be your browser that's causing some trouble. Try uploading it using another one.
i have poco x3 pro and mms i send have low quality, how to increase them? is it even possible?

I think the MMS standard/specification has size limits. As such, images will be resized &/or compressed to enable them to be sent VIA MMS. If you are really concerned, one thing I have not tried, but may work, is if you find what those size limits are, then modify your images manually, then YOU can decide how the compression/degradation of quality is performed. Another option would be to upload the image to a web host site, and then send a link to the full quality image. You could also use a link shortner to keep the SMS text reasonably short.
