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....

haha quit being cheap and get an actual tmo line. But anyways i would say search simple mobile mms settings.
Sending a pic to yourself will always work. Is your phone rooted?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
Yes it rooted. Did a lil online research and it was happing to the iPhone. So I guess bug the hell out of simple mobile.

you might have trouble downloading on wifi or while plugged in to pc.
Turn off your wifi when you send and receive a picture message
Did you happen to mess with the build.prop file at all?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
No I did not mess with the build. But my wifi is always on but is never connected. So say I have to leave it off at all times? Many thanks for the reply.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
No, you should be able to leave it on. I have mine on right now as I'm typing this and I've an mms..
I assume you have restarted you phone multiple times. Have you been able to send/receive photos before?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
Before I can send no problem. Receiving is a hit or miss. Now all I getting is download fail.
Rom is ultimate 1.0

I was going to say, I can never send MMS messages while on wifi calling, I have to turn it off, but if you aren't using wifi calling, must be something else!

I personally use handcent which has a blacklist feature, and then you can turn off the notification in the stock messaging app

My Carrier (Rogers) allows me to block SMS as well as phone calls via their web site. Worst case scenario... change your number.

Just leave your phone on and let the messages come through. If your phone freezes leave the back door off and just do a battery pull it will run its cycle.
I have been using the mms_cyan.apk
Found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=901216
And have been quite happy with it, with a couple exceptions. 1) It does not show the notification on my lock screen like my stock mms app does and 2) found out last night than anytime I go to send an audio or video file, the app FC's. If anyone could help me either figure out how to resolve these 2 issues or if it's too complex for someone who had little to no experience working w/ apks perhaps resolve it and tell me what had to be done so that I can learn from the experience I would be greatful.
I have included my stock mms.apk, the mms_cyan.apk, as well as my framework-res.apk in the zip file.
Thank you in advance.
Edit: I am using a LG-C800 on 2.3.4 if that matters
Any idea guys? And this may need to be moved to the Android specific forum?

Maybe the mms.cyan is missing files from your stock mms.apk

But where would I begin to try and resolve the issue? I'm pretty computer savvy, but programming and the like has never really been my strong suite; although not afraid to try if pointed in the right direction.
The files u downloaded, r they designed for your phone?
Sent from my HTC_A510c
I haven't been able to find anything designed for my phone yet. Newer model. But everything works aside from being able to send audio or video sends pictures fine.
That might be why then, maybe
Sent from my HTC_A510c
Actually, just tested it and I can't send any mms with this app... can receive just fine though. Where would I have to start to make the mms_cyan compatible? Cause the stock mms app sucks horribly, cannot even choose what folder to download attachments to. Really like the one I'm using but the limitation of not being able to send an mms just isn't a viable option...

A dev could probaly help you on that, I have no dev experience

Ok so after looking at the logcat I'm seeing that for picture messages it's being denied by the server for some reason... as for the problem with adding audio and it crashing I'm still at a loss... any dev able to possibly offer some insight?
Sent from my LG-C800 using xda premium
if it worked in ur phone place the apk in the rom and reload it, if never worked, the apk might not be for your phone
Maybe the mms.cyan is missing files from your stock mms.apk
Any idea as to where to start? After decompiling both apks with autoapktool and looking in the folders the stock has a lot more folders inside, but don't know where to begin narrowing it down as to where the problem may lie. Thanks in advance...
Sent from my LG-C800 using xda premium
what its mms.cyan can change skin?
It appears to be a modded stock mms.apk with the option of a white or black background and with the black background the names on the main conversation screen as well as 'new message' are colored cyan as well as the default contact image is modded, really like the app and wish I could get some help to mod it to work on my phone properly...
Sent from my LG-C800 using xda premium
I'm in about the same boat as you as far as skills go. If we can get dev attention to a ClorkworkMod recovery, then CyanogenMod (which I assume is where your preferred MMS comes from, judging by the name) opens up to us. The MyTouch Q is supposed to get an OTA update to ICS second quarter of this year, so it can definitely run the latest stuff-- even when bloated down with T-Mo apps and CarrierIQ. It's really a neat slider.
Yeah, after tweaking the phone some its pretty quick and love the fact its a slider... keep checking into the post hoping they will figure out cwm for the c800 but no such luck so far.
And judging from the original post where I found the mms_cyan, the OP has a lot of posts for HTC so thinking it was from one of those roms... but having no luck so far figuring out where to start so I can mod it to work fully on my phone.... not that I have any programming knowledge anyhow but... lol
Sent from my LG-C800 using xda premium
Ok, so since I've been unable to figure this out on my own... I would gladly donate to whoever can figure this out so that I can have the Mms.apk that I want.
Sent from my LG-C800 using xda premium
Almost hate to bump such an old post of mine, however still have been unable to figure out how to modify my prefered mms.apk to work as the stock mms does. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Tried the alternative messaging programs out there and none are what i'm looking for...

So, a couple days ago my phone started to not receive any pictures what so ever, and im unable to send them, they will only send if i put a letter for the subject, will not send with just the picture.....people told me they have sent me pictures and none have shown up at all, i do not use wifi and yes my data is turned on, im unsure of what the problem is....i did a factory reset and nothing, cache/dalvik wipe still nothing, changed roms and still nothing, now running aokp ics with kg4 modem and changing to hefe kernel here shortly, any help would be appreciated

Never had good luck sending picture messages with this phone, even on stock. Only thing that does it, sometimes, is to have someone send me a picture message first, then i send one back, then it works. But that's rare and inbetween. I ditched my data plan, so I don't care for it now. I'll email it if it's that important to share and use wifi. lol.
It was fine a couple days ago, then all of a sudden it started doing this....

Check your apn.
Sorry, apn? I just know how to switch roms etc, know nothing about the other stuff as apn and what not
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app
Google apn with your carrier name in front of it. For me it would be att apn.
From curiosity, what would apn have to do anything with not receiving pictures or being able to send them?
Edit: i searched it, my apn is fine, if it makes any sense, i sent myself a picture, it didnt come through, it only came through when i put a subject, as only i receive it when i send myself it, no one else receives the picture i send them, even if it has a subject

When your changing roms do factory reset... Wipe dalvik and cache... Then format system. Its just good practice.
I see you said you are using stock mms.... If your Internet is working then most likely its something Tmo might have to fix.

If you're running any rom that uses my aroma installer the wipes get done for you. If you want a totally clean install it's better if you opt for NOT doing a /data backup during installation.
As a test for mms you can try to send yourself an mms and see if you receive it. If you do then mms definitely works.

I reverted back to aokp, have done factory reset, wiped cache/dalvik, and i am using gosms, i have sent myself a mms with no subject and it never came through, if i put a subject in then i receive it, but if i send someone a mms with subject they do not receive it, if they send me a mms it doesnt come through, if you get what i mean, i can take screen shots to show if i need to, but most likely i have to call or go to tmoble

Yeah it might be an APN issue but you'd be one of the first people reporting this issue so I would call up t-mobile and tell them you can't send picture messages, pretty much what you stated here.
If you do go to t mobile. You might have trouble getting help with a custom Rom. They are not going to support custom firmware.
