click on the picture should enlarge it.
Come on man I realize that. I was just hoping there was a way to remove the play button from a picture. I could understand it being there on a video but not a pic.

This problem plagues tons of android 2.2.x devices...captivate and atrix included. They located the problem and patched it in CM7 for SGS. When we get it ported, the problem will go away.

Does anyone have problems receiving MMS pictures from iPhone users?? I tend to get a long message saying "one or more of the message components have been deleted by MMS Adaptation. Either the message was too large or the components were unsuitable for your terminal."
I used to get a similar message on the Atrix. Why the hell does this happen??
Not an Android issue, it's AT&T wanting to give you a "multimedia experience" which annoys the hell out of me. Once the ROMs come out, it'll be gone. It was the same with the HTC Aria, Samsung Captivate, and HTC Inspire 4G... With my last phone, Inspire 4G, any rom applied broke the play-button thing, so photos just showed up like on normal phones.
Why must AT&T try to get their hands all over everything? It's so annoying.
First thing I did when I got my phone was delete the stock samsung mms app and replace it with the stock aosp mms app
I use SUFBS but root explorer does the same....

I've searched and found no results for this so I appologize if it's been mentioned. When I open the "people" there is a "video call" tab. Is it possible to use this feature?
Ah no there isnt what rom u on ?

I don't know of anyone that has been able to use it.. you probably need someone with a sensation or Thunderbolt in your contacts

I have people with thunderbolts in my contacts who also have that video call option, but nothing comes up.

Gingerbread is going to have Skype video calling built in. It should start arriving on the 30th.

Now what about Google talk video chat? I have it, and it shows a camera next to my name, but doesn't show my fiance's as having video capabilities when I look at her name on my list. We both are running the same ROM and when looking at her list she has a camera next to her name but not mine. We both have it checked to allow video chat in the preferences.

i think it only works on some roms. I see the same thing when testing a chat from pc to phone and the pc will initially see the video but once initiated it will say the device isnt currently supported
Does anyone know if this works and I am just not seeing the video icons in my friends list, or if this is prohibited with the Gtalk pre-installed on the sensation.
IF the latter is there an open APK that will allow this from another forum perhaps?

Official app only works in 2.3.4

only bad thing about VTOK is when I had it installed it never shut off & drained by battery quickly. Even with the screen off, it was always using the CPU & keeping wifi on. Signing out of your google account didn't shut it down either
I've emailed the developer but still haven't heard back after a week.
On my galaxy tab I am running the Overcome 2.0.1 ROM which is a Gingerbread 2.3.3. The version of Google talk pre-installed with it does video chat. Perhaps there it a way to extract the APK from the galaxy Tab and use it with our 2.3.3 phones?
I could be completely wrong on this, but...
I believe that the Talk app is installed into the system folder and therefore we'd have to push the replacement file into the system folder, which we can't do right now?

Basically upping your question.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G
Hi guys,
What version of Talk actually works on the Sensation then? I have insertcoin 3.3.9 which gives me android 2.3.5 with 3.5 sense but i cannot for the life of me work out how to get the video icons on my contacts. I have tried everything and still nothing as even tapping on my avatar does not give me an option to enable / disable video.
Anyone know what i need to do?
So far it's been working for me with most of the versions of InsertCoin. Just make sure that the contacts on the side has enabled their option to receive video calls.

Sorry to hear it. the only program I know of that I can look at texts without the phone knowing is cerberus & that's only the least 8-10.
How does that work

Can't you see the to/from on your bill? I'm sprint and I can see this --not actual words but texts to/from numbers
Then use reverse lookup to get info, or google

it's actually an app that tracks your phone, can show call logs/texts, & what not. I use it in case my phone is ever stolen & it's way better than HTC's htcsense.com site.
for your case, you'd need to install it on her phone & then you can do with it what you want. There's a 7 day trial for it. If you send the command to get texts the phone doesn't know it. Also, you can make it hide the program from the app drawer so that it doesn't look like it's installed.
I know this isn't the intended use, but it may help you out

my Father in Law has a MyTouch from T-Mobile and he was wanting to transfer all his pictures from his internal SD card to his external SD. I couldn't find the folder (using ES Explorer) to copy them.. can someone let me know where the internal pictures from the camera are stored?
Thank you!

They go into the DCIM folder and depending on the settings of the camera at the time of the photo, one of the subfolders of DCIM. They aren't stored in other locations unless specified by a third party camera app.

this forum is for the mytouch 4g slide

Like rorty said they should all be in DCIM or in sub folders inside DCIM. I know you can hide things on your sdcard from the gallery by adding a . In front of the name. So if I want to hide LinuxImages from gallery I would name it .LinuxImages. so see if he has hidden folders with the pictures.

What app are you using? Stock gallery app - if so what android version? (gingerbread, ics...later? (might be helpful since we don't have that device...)
Something to consider - and may be what is the case - they could be pictures no longer there.
A thumbnail of each picture is saved into a thumbnails database - once there it kinda becomes independent of the picture. The gallery is actually displaying whatever is in the thumbnails database, and could be showing pictures long gone. It does happen at times.
I like to use QuickPic as my gallery app (it's awesome!) and it stores the thumbnail database in /sdcard/Android/data/com.alensw.PicFolder
See if you can track down the thumbnail database for your gallery app and (back it up first!!!!!!!!!) delete it.
Next time you open the gallery app it should generate a new, current thumbnail database showing you more accurately what is on the device.
After that, long press on a specific picture in the gallery might get you a pop up menu you can select a details or properties option from? That should tell you (one at a time...) where to find each picture.
Note: thumbnails are tiny, low resolution copies of the picture and not what you want to end up with, just one clue on the path of finding what you are looking for.
Hope this helps some.
