Mms - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Hello. I just noticed today that when someone sends me a picture it is in such ****ty quality but when we compare it with the original picture the original one was not ****ty. This happens to all my Mms pictures. Just wondering if it's just my phone or what? I am also using axism rom and have not tried Mms on another rom.

Pics turn multimedia?

Can someone please advise how to make my pics I receive via text to not run as a 5 second video? I'm not sure what I did but I'm certain it didn't do this initially.

Are you using stock messaging app or something else? Which ROM?
my mms have been doing this since android 1.1
yeah.
This is how the GSM network sends Android MMS'. If you find a friend with a Sprint or Verizon CDMA Android device, you'll see it just sends as a photo. Crazy, huh?
Actually I believe this is how Samsung devices handle it. Although I can speak for cdma devices, I know my atrix and nexus one didn't do this. Its just houw the stock app works. If you use a different app like go SMS the problem is gone.
I like the landscape view in the stock app which is why I didn't make the switch myself.

Yes I'm using the stock ROM and the original mms app. I guess perhaps it did this since day one but I'm realizing it now lol. Appreciate your responses and I may try a different mms app.

MMS Issues - CM9/AOKP/OS Also Senseless

I have an issue with MMS messages on CM9/AOKP/OS and have not been able to find an answer.
So the issue is back and forth. If i send a pic via mms sometimes the recipient receives a blank message (no pic). Sometimes when i receive an MMS it is also blank.
This has happened on every nightly and every kernal combo i tried.
This also happens on senseless roms (HNS 3.3) so maybe its the stock mms app. I just want to make sure its a tmobile issue and not my phone. If i use another mms app it works but not the receiving part. And with other mms apps i cannot attach pics from picasa directly...
Ive attached a screen so you see what i mean..
i have the same problem using the stock messaging app and on tmobile, im using HNS 3.3 and the pictures send fine but i cant receive, just shows the same thing as you.. i've always used gosms though and i can send and receive pictures without a problem
Yeah it's a known issue on Virtuous, so I use handcent and it solves the issue.

I just tried and while I don't really know what Picasa is, it uploaded it successfully. So yes, it worked

I think he means sending them from the messaging app not upload pictures to it.. I can't confirm on that though because I don't use picasa

MMS Messages tiny

Hey guys. My MMS Messages aren't working right for some reason. It used to be fine but yesterday 2 people sent me pictures through MMS and neither worked right. One was from and iphone the other was from a One XL. It says the resolution is 23x40 and I can't view them at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, I'm on cleanrom 3.2 if that matters!

Perhaps your phone compressed them really small. My phone does the same thing to pics and makes them small so that that take up only a thumb-sized portion of my screen. Seems to be a problem with HTC.

Yeah that's what it does. There has to be a way to fix it though

Check the senders phones before you go tearing yours apart. It's probably on their side.

are they the same pictures?
No. They were sent by 2 different phones and are different pictures.

same here. I had two people send me mms from different phones and the picture was thumbnail :/
iPhones are notorious for tiny mms messages
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
It's not just the iPhone there is something wrong with the way our phone handles mms. I had a buddy who has an iPhone and a buddy that has the same one x that I have send me the same picture we found online 5 times and it just seemed like it was every other picture that was messed up.

Has anyone figured out what causes this?
I wonder if the file is being compressed by the network to alleviate network congestion, possibly?
my friend sent me a picture and it was tiny resolution. he resent it, and it was fine.
weird.
stock 2.20 firmware
If you use go sms make sure "preserve image resolution" is checked in settings. Makes a huge difference.

[Q]MMS problems

For some reason every time I get a picture through text from someone it always shows up extremely small to the point you can't even see it. It only started recently and I have no idea why it is doing it. I am rooted but it was doing this way before that. Any suggestions? I've checked the settings for MMS and nothing appears out of the ordinary.

You using a custom rom, or are you running stock rooted?
I have the same issue on CleanROM 5.1 and wasn't sure if it was just this rom or if something else was up.
I'm running cleanrom. It was the first rom I loaded after root. No problems. I swear it is the phone itself...because it did this before root. And after root it worked for a few days I was excited then BAM! Back to microscopic pictures.

i remember reading iin a few other threads around here that its carrier restrictions and is limited to how big a picture can be send through mms and gets compressed, PNG files seem to get compressed alot hence reduces the file size and quality dramatically and causes the tiiny pics.
for me on att ive only noticed this on PNG files everything else goes through fine. running custom roms/stock
Hmm. Yes I just realized one worked from my buddy s3. But it seems to screw up the ones sent from my friends iPhone...talking compressed down to 1kb lol. Literally.

i think that is an issue with the mms compression on the iphone and how our phones uncompress the images. make sure that you have you mms size limit maxed out. and something else you might try is a 3rd party sms app.
Yea I have the option set to max...I figured it was something to do with iPhone. Weird it just started happening. I will try another app but those usually end in people getting multiple text and whatnot. I always use go SMS but people would keep saying "you've sent me the same text twice" ugh.

Low quality mms?

When I would send a short video via mms on my Note5, the quality was great. Now that I am on the S8+, you can barely tell whats going on due to low quality.
Any way to correct this?

Depends on what messaging app you use I'm using Message+
Currently on the Samsung app until google fixes their mms sending issue (I used that app on the note5). Tried textra too w same result
Edit ... textra may be working ... resent one instead of viewing one sent on a prior app!
