flashed cm11 on my m8 today and noticed that mms sending and receiving size are rather small, is there a setting i can change or a zip i can flash to make mms size limit at least 1200kb like on the stock rom?

I don't know if you're on Flashed 11cm. But there's other way, but this is not in Flashed 11cm:

heyyy guys;
my mms has started creating fuss since Jwrightmcps 2.02.00 WWE.
mainly i have two problems.
1) What happens is like when i try to send mms to anyone... it starts sending and the percentage starts running... but as it gets to 99% , the baloon disappears and the mms either remains unsent in the outbox or moves itself into the drafts folder.
I called up my carrier and they say there ain't no problem with their service and my settings rather it is a total handset related problem.
2) Second problem is like... when i used to receive mms, the pictures are always resized. E.g. if the sender has sent me a photo of size 640x480 (file size 70 KB) it gets resized into say size 105 x 80 (File size 7 KB). what i want to know is if this action is normal or are there any settings fix it an get a full sized image as sent.
when ever an mms is sent to an email address it is always as the original size as sent but not in the handset. pls guide if there are any settings the arcsoft mms client 3.5.
thanx & regards,
farehmani
When I upgraded my 02 Exec to AKU3 it broke MMS with T-Mob (UK). Receiving (not sending) MMS would get to 99% and stop. Everyone had this problem until T-Mob changed something and it started working again.
I have no problem with MMS on this ROM on my Exec with T-Mob so it's probably that your privider doesn't work with the arcsoft mms client 3.5.
I could be wrong.
Change The Mms Composer
Try instal MMS Composer 4.2 or 4.8...
Try your GTW IP set with or without 0's:
example:
217.65.192.33 or 217.065.192.033
and try differnet ports (9201, 80, 8080)
I have my mms settings configured to allow 600kb attachments. I have tried using handcent and gosms. Neither solved the issue. When I receive a message, it gets shrunk. I can send an mms in its full resolution to someone else, but when I receive one, it's always about half as large as the original. For example, if I send a 150kb picture to my girlfriend's tilt2, she receives the same 150kb picture. If I send a 150kb picture to myself, I get a 75kb picture. If she forwards the 150kb picture back to me, it is downgraded to 75kb by my phone. Is there a fix for this. I've been looking around for over an hour with no luck.
Update: I think it has something to do with the network. It's working for the time being. That is...I'm able to both send and receive mms attachments in their original resolution. Beats me.
This seems to do this to me all the time, it pisses me off cause when you go to zoom in its all blurry and grainy. Is there a way to fix this?
I don't believe there is.

It does suck! You have this badass phone, yet you could save mms attachments better with a damn ten year old razr.
Update: I believe it has something to do with peak time. All of the mms attachments that I receive right not (around 1:00 PM on Monday) are being shrunk to half their normal size, whereas last night I was able to receive them in full resolution. Still it's a problem with the phone not the network because I can send and receive them in full resolution on my girlfriends Tilt2 and we are on the same network, same city.
Bump
This to me is a major issue. I am willing to switch roms to solve it. Can anyone confirm if a particular rom fixes the problem?

What ROM are you using now? I'm using CM7 and have received MMS attachments from my wife's iPhone, and they are large, clear and zoomable. So maybe try CM7 or one of the many ROMs based on CM7.
I was on cleardroid. Now I'm on leedroid. Neither allow delivery of large mms attachments. Both roms shrink the mms to about half its original size. Both will send mms attachments in full resolution.
More info about this issue...
Some attachments are sendable and receivable without being compressed and some are not. Size is not the key issue. I sent myself a 175kb pic and received it in its original resolution, but I sent a 140kb pic, and it was compressed down to 75kb upon receipt. It seems to have something to do with the picture itself that causes the resizing. Could it be the dimensions?
Is anyone else having problems sending MMS? I'm using go sms pro and I'm running SKY ICS 4.2D and on the latest update for the rom.
try going to advanced options, mms options and fill in the settings manually. I that doesn't help at the top of the mms setting try reducing max size.
I've searched for a couple days.
I love cm9 and aokp for skyrocket.
Both will fail to send (and sometimes notify) an SMS or text message if the count is over 160 chars.
This leaves you with two options:
1. Split messages
2. Convert to mms if over 1
The latter works best but means no gosms or hand cent as stock is the only one that allows you to auto convert to moms after just 160 chars.
Ideally there is a solution, anyone have one yet, or can recommend a similar mod that functions like these.
Edit:
Is this happening on every skyrocket instance of CM9 or AOKP??
I'm using CM9 stable and even since the nightlies and RC2, my texts would automatically split. I have the setting to send mms when over 3.

So you split till you are over 3.
Cause otherwise, in my experience its not going out if it's anything over 1, so you have to split or send as mms.
Is the cause of the problem known.
Does anyone else receive extremely low quality MMS messages? Any MMS message that is sent to me is less than 20kb. I have tried using both the stock messenger and google messenger with the same results.
I don't know about receiving, but I noticed on my AT&T model that Google Messenger send MMS photos in terrible quality. Sending them from Samsung Messages makes them look much better on the other end.
Open messages app click on more > settings > chat settings > image quality
Samsung has it set to 'best available' by default just set it to 'original'.

My S7 sends MMS messages with high quality using either the Stock Messenger app or Google Messages. Receiving is where I get low image quality

It appears as if my Verizon version does not have this option. I am coming from a Note 5, and the MMS messages I received are fine so I do not think it is the limits of the carrier, however something with the S7

Same issue here and image quality option not there. Poor resolution on Pics sent Via Google messenger on VZW. I'm on a HTC One M8. Any suggestions ?
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/comments/5gk4y0/mms_resizing_verizon/#bottom-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.

Hello!
I have a Samsung Note 8 and I had the same problem, but I fixed it. I am not sure if the set up works the same for all Galaxy cellphones, give it a go anyway
Here's what I did;
° Go to your Messages Settings.
° Under Settings <--> Chat Settings
° Chat Setting <--> Image Size
° Under Image Size you'll have five
(5) selections.
1. Best available
2. Original
3. Large (50%)
4. Medium (20%)
5. Small (10%)
I picked Original. But you can choose the sizes of your choice.
Under "Multimedia Limit" you'll have 2 choices.
1. Automatically accept all
2. Automatically accept files less than 9765 MB in size.
I chose "Automatically accept all"
Good luck!
Marie
If you're on Sprint, they have an algorithm that catches MMS from the stock messenger app and auto downgrades the quality. Third party messenger apps won't, I can only guess the MMS signature is different, so the network doesn't know the type of content and can't auto 1995 picture.
EDIT: To clarify, this does not occur on iOS since all messages route through Apple Servers.

Thanks a million. Your advice just made my old Verizon Galaxy S5 running LOS 15.1 start receiving MMS at a much more acceptable size than before. Now I'd just love to know exactly what Textra's doing to make things work so happily!
