Oh okay. I don't have that installed I don't think. Actually on line with tech support right now
Anyone figure this out?
I just tried to send myself an MMS and it failed outbound.
I called and he supposedly didn't see any issues. Reset some things on their end. Had me turn the phone off. Seems to be working right at the moment. Suppose to give me a follow up call Wednesday

Step 3) Press and hold power button
Step 4) press restart
Presto! its fixed!

Do you have WiFi on ? Personally I think the WiFi data transfer is contributing but can't back it up
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Noticed this morning. Left the house and was 15 miles away yet it still said connected to my home WiFi. I really think it has something to do with trying to send via data while WiFi is on. I don't think its switching over properly
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
the only issue i have with the messaging app is how it sometimes resets the text size. very strange.
Yea I tried sending two mms the other day while on WiFi at my house. Both failed. I was eventually able to send them but I think it has something to do with the WiFi.

are you in the app that came with the phone? i'm trying to figure out if it's a function of the size limitation. looks like it's at 300k max for mms in the basic app. handcent's ceiling for an outgoing mms is over 3x higher.
The problem that I having is receiving MMS from iPhone users. I wonder if it has something to do with the 600k size limit within the settings menu? I have had to resort to asking people to e-mail them to me.

the only time i've heard of iphone to one x problems had to do with people taking their micro-sims from their iphones and moving them to the one x. the iphone has to be wiped first to clear the relevant sim card settings or else messages from other iphone users never showed up.
I sent an MMS Monday night and while my phone said it went through, the recipient never received it. Then on Tuesday morning my sms stopped going out and I couldn't make an out bound call connect so I restarted my phone. That fixed the sms and calling issue, and five minutes later I got a text from my friend telling me my Monday night MMS finally went through. I don't think I ever turned WiFi on during all of this but can't remember for sure.

I'm having issues sending a MMS from the Gallery. When I send a pic from the Gallery and share through MMS it doesn't send it. It still shows in the waiting queue. When I select "retry sending" and sends it immediately.

I'm having this problem. My gf is trying to send me an 800 KB file thru MMS and its simply not going thru. It's telling me:
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 look in the MMS settings for the phone, and the limit is 600 KB! What is this bull****?! How can iPhones have unlimited MMS size? Is this a carrier restriction?
I am having the same issue with MMS. When I try to send an MMS its really a crap shoot as sometimes it goes through and sometimes it does now. When I select to retry it works.

don't know the answer, but just for comparison, as someone on at&t prepaid on a stock int'l one x, in the native messages app the max size is 300kb! however, if you choose handcent, you can set it much higher - with a warning that it could affect costs for those with light data usage plans.

friend switched from iphone to inspire; her text messages show in the thread out of order.
any thoughts?

Did she go to an AT&T store to do the switch, or did she switch her self? Sounds like there may be an issue with her account. I would have her call AT&T either way.

Just asked my 14 yr old daughter and she said hers never show up out of order. I don't text too much so I had to defer to her.
If the timestamps are correct and they are out of order that is strange. You could try gosms or handcent as I believe they simply order them as they occur.

Get the app in the market called SMS Time Fix, install it, run it and put a check in the box for Active and under it set the Adjustment Method to USE PHONE TIME. Works great for me! There is the occasional message that comes in out of order but for 99%, the time is correct. When you restart the phone, just go in and make sure the check in the box is for active and make sure your app killer or task manager doesn't shut it off.
Have you ever noticed that when someone sends you an mms you have to save it to be able to see it clearly. The stock messaging app displays pics at very low resolution. But if you save the pic, you can view it in full clarity with the gallery app. Does handcent remedy this?

Nope. I just tap on the picture and it enlarges to its normal size. Nicely. D:

From his signature, it looks like he's running ClearDroid. But, I see what he's saying. I have the same problem. The pic looks pretty ugly when you click on Slideshow within the text message. I also hate that it goes away unless I hit the pause button.
Yep.
If you save it, you can view it later in full resolution, but 99% of my mms's are not something I'd really want to see more than once.
BTW, I'm running cleardroid. I don't think he has a signature.
I don't get a lot of MMS messages typically but I know it works properly in Cyanogen.
Mines not a fuzzy issue that way... well it kind of is. But mine is cause the picture gets compressed way too much. I can send a message to muself that is 5** kb but when I receive it is only 100 or less. And its starting to piss me off cause I do a lot of mms sending and receiving. But if I send to other phones it comes out on theirs the size I sent out

might be a ClearDroid problem... it works fine on my device (running Android Revolution 5.2.0)
It's not a ClearDroid issue, and I am still on the at&t network, it was doing it before also. And I'm not trying to trick it in any way. Anything under 600 should send that's the max. Cause I had this problem before rooting but thought nothing of it. Just bugging me more now cause I'm doing a lot more lately with family passing away and family that don't live near me.

No problem here. Running CM7.
Stock messaging app compresses the crap out of pictures. They look awful on the receiving end.
Gosms does a much better job. I highly recommend it.
I use gosms free in market. No issues.
I think I'll try gosms. They make my favorite launcher.

Why MMS? What's good about MMS that you can't get with any other app or service?

Yea.. I gather that as well.
How else would one sext and send nudes?
1) It's universal.
No matter what phone the other person is using, chances are it supports MMS.
2) It's in-line.
Unlike email, you can just go "Here's a picture" instead of "I just sent you an email, you should go check it out"

I know its a serious question but made me laugh a bit. "Why God why!!" Lol
My girlfriend and I send MMS's (plural?lol) all the time. Sometimes she wants to send me something she saw or maybe a new outfit she bought With email I don't always have autosync on for battery life and its just that extra hassle. If I'm trying to send something pretty high resolution I will use email though since it doesn't compress it.
its the easiest and fastest way to send a pic to a person on another mobile phone, any other mobile phone, any OS, any platform, any carrier.
was this a joke?

I guess I just don't get why you couldn't just email pictures or videos. All you have to do is tap after you've taken your picture and the UI asks how you want to share it.

So I've tried using the stock app and 8sms but anytime someone sends me a picture, it comes in super small and very pixelated. Sender can be an iPhone or Android. I've also noticed if someone sends me multiple photos, the last one or 2 is in black and white and not color.
Any suggestions?

This has happened to me too and not found what causes it. I also miss some videos people send. I believe it has to do with the 1200kb max MMS can receive. Wife sent a 1800kb video and everyone got it but me. All of them on verizon, half with android and other half with iphone. Im hoping we can make that max even bigger.

Does anyone know for a FACT the file limit size Verizon will allow it's customers to send via mms??? This would help
Taking 10 seconds out of my day found this. Seems Verizon stats that the limit is 1.2mb which is 1200k correct? So that's our limit to send and receive no matter how high we want to make the setting on the phone, network will only do this?

I have noticed on previous phones that the image in the mms app can look fairly poor, but if you download it, it looks fine.
Correct about downloading them fixes the problem.

Verizon website says 1200kb is biggest size available for pictures. So yeah they get smaller, but not that small.. I have spoken to manager of local Verizon store and he says he found a thread on there internal support Forum about the issue. He says samsung is aware and they are working on an update to resolve the issue..
On the flip side, my wife just got a Note 5 and MMS I get from her are 1000% better (I have a Droid Turbo FWIW, her old phone was a GS4)

Was about to ask if it does that being sent from another phone but confirmed note 5 sending is better. Some phones do the compression before sending others might compress before receiving on the server side. Interesting issue none the less.

This problem has been plaguing me for over a year, this is them most helpful information I have found. https://www.reddit.com/r/GooglePixel...ottom-comments
From what I can tell, if Verizon doesn't recognize your phone (mine is on a custom rom) Verizon servers automatically compress incoming MMS to 30-40KB.
"Pixel is resizing the images much more than they should. Take a look at the google pixel product forum. There are many complaints about this.
Every other comment so far is wrong, it's not just due to MMS. Yes MMS compresses/resizes the images to get a smaller file size, but no carrier restricts the image size down to the 30-40KB that Pixel is receiving.
From what I can tell the phone isn't in the carriers MMS phone info database yet, so it doesn't know the phone's capabilities so it defaults to a really old, flip phone user agent that restricts incoming MMS images to 30-40KB.
I have seen other reports of brand new phones having the exact same issue.
So hopefully it's just a matter of time before the carriers fix this.
Edit: I almost forgot, to prove this is an MMS issue and not 'just the way MMS works', download Textra or Chomp and under MMS settings choose Legacy instead of System. I'm not sure what it does, but it forces some other MMS settings to be used and will allow you to receive much higher quality photos."
I finally got it to work better by using Textra and setting it to "legacy" MMS.
