anyone else having problems sending pics from their picture and videos ?
I can send pics if I start at the text messaging center but when ya go to pics and vids and choose send image it only sends a blank text tmobile says that there towers are experiencing problems well my thoughts are if you can send pic messages from the messaging then its not the towers fault
I have a Fuze that's been unlocked to work for t-mobile. I've been getting help from you guys/gals on here (thanks a lot), but I need a few more tips.
1. I can't seem to RECEIVE picture messages from people (also, I think that I'm getting in my "inbox" any message that I sent outgoing??). Is there a setting I need to adjust, or is it a ROM issue? any other software that I can use to change/update my text messaging management?
2. I don't know if I have a regular or cooked ROM, and I don't know what version I have, do you know where to find this info out?
I'm not very technical, but I'm trying to learn.. please explain very plainly if you can...
Thanks.
I am on tmobile also with an unlocked fuze and get picture messages just fine. Can you explain more as to what is happening? do you get regular text messages? and is it only picture messages that you dont receive can you receive voice text messages?
[on a side note] I'm not sure what has been done to my phone since I bought it used. it looks as thought the att bloaware has been uninstalled, and I also have a Tab in setting that says "xbmod manilla fro xda dev, TouchFLO 3D 2.0 3737395.3" whether or not that might affect anything. [end side note]
I DO get text messages, and I've never been sent a voice text (I'll have to test this). the weird thing about my messages is that they show up on the main TF3d screen, however they don't seem to be anywhere in the folders
When I tried to test getting an MMS message with a pic added, I had my sister send me 2 messages. one with only text (just saying "hi") and another with only a photo added. They both show up on my main MESSAGES TF3d tab, and the MMS message says "Click to view MMS", however when I click on the message it takes me to menue with my conversations with my sister and there is NO SIGN of the MMS message, only the one that says "hi".
Thanks for the response.. I really want to figure this out.

Somebody please help me fix this problem I have ROM At0mAng V5.4, and I just need to configure/setup my phone to work on t-mobile. If you know how to do this or have any idea please help
For some reason, whenever someone sends me a MMS picture in a text message, I get a notification from sprint that there is a picture mail to be viewed with a link. This has been happening since before I rooted. I tested this from a friends phone, sent the same picture to my phone and my wifes phone at the same time. She got it fine as MMS, but I get the notification about a picture mail. Any ideas??
I had the same issue when I first got my EVO4G. I called Sprint they reset my MMS/SMS settings on their end, never had an issue since.
My One S doesn't send picture messages. When i try to send a picture, the phone displays the sending sign but doesnt send the message, after a long time it says message couldnt be sent. I am on a stock phone (no root) on T-mobile.
i have this problem on wind as well.
MMS works fine here. It is more than likely an issue with your carrier and you should contact them.
Hello,
I am looking to send a rather long text message of about 3,300 characters to a person who I can only reliably reach via text message at this time. I realize that SMS stands for Short Message Service, and 3,300 characters is by no means short, but please understand that if there was a better way to send this message to this person, I would choose that method instead. I have the Samsung Galaxy Nexus on T-Mobile, and the standard Messaging application allows me to type up to 2,000 characters for an SMS message. So, my first thought was to just break the message up into two segments of about 1,650 characters each and send them as two separate messages consecutively. This would be fine, however I realized something else. Messages over about 160 characters are broken up into multiple messages on some carriers, meaning that even if I broke my message up into two large segments of 1,650 characters each, it may still be broken up further into multiple smaller segments when sent to the recipient. As you could imagine, I would rather not have the recipient be inundated with 20 or so separate text messages at once, unless they would only receive one notification instead of 20 separate ones.
To give some background, my intended recipient has an iPhone, though I don't know what carrier they use (if that matters in how messages get broken up). One other possibility was to send two MMS messages of 1,650 characters each instead, but would that be split up into multiple 160-character fragments, as well? Also, even if MMS messages do not get split up like this, would my recipient be able to receive such a large MMS message (containing just text)?
Please feel free to suggest any solutions to this problem or any alternatives. I would e-mail this person, instead, but I have no idea how frequently they check their e-mails and I feel as though sending this over text message is the best way to quickly communicate this to them and ensure that they actually receive it. Thanks in advance for any help!

This may sound obvious but why not email the long message and then text them and tell them to check their email?
Otherwise a long message is usually converted to an mms if it is very long.

I'm thinking that this may just be my best option, although I'd prefer to send it directly to their phone. However, this is not a complete necessity.
I am curious, though, about MMS. Would just sending my message broken up into a few text-only MMS messages run into any potential problems? I don't know much about the iPhone and the reliability of sending and receiving MMS messages from Android to iPhone or from T-Mobile to another network, but is sending multiple MMS messages rather unreliable? I suppose I could always request a delivery report on each MMS message to see if they were received successfully, but I also wonder how reliable delivery reports are. What do you think about this? Thanks.
What are you composing from? Why not make a pdf and mms it? Or a jpg?
