New to android. I keep trying to send a video through android messages but when I click the + it only says choose photo. I know there is likely a size restriction but the video is less than 5mb. Am I missing something?

Share through gallery app.

I tried that I think. I opened gallery and select the video and click share. A big list opens up but "Android Message" isn't one of them. EDIT Ok looks like I need to dig into adjusting share either via normal method or something like "custom share" app. Thks for the info.
Ok. So it just doesn't let me share video at all in pie 9.02 using android message. In the gallery if I select any photo then Android Message appears in the share list. For a 1.5mb video it never appears. I suspect this is only limited to Android message and if I used whats app or something it would probably work. Anyone else have this issue?
I have been unable to find any app that fixes the issue. Any suggestions?

Check your apn, I just sent and received a video. I'm using 9.0.2 and messages as well
APN is ATT nextgenphone with an option for ATT phone. The SIM is from an Iphone and Ive tried using both.
I can open messages and click + and record a video from camera and send it . So sending video isn't the issue it's just messages isn't in the share list for existing videos.

For some reason I can log-in using the FB app fine, but I'm getting an error when I try to log-in for my sync. It says Log-in failed. Try later. It isn't a password issue because I use the same password to log-in with the app. I have to turn of FB sync or I keep getting the error in my Notification Bar. Anyone else seeing this issue? I'm sure it is something on FB's end, but why would it only affect log-in via Android settings and not the actual FB app or website?
i have this same problem on my atrix...its annoying.
I've been asking for days now, same problem. The only way I could sign in was through the data network and not Wi-Fi. Still can't sync as it gives me sync is experiencing problems both on Wi-Fi and network data.
Added: For giggles I went back to stock, just to see if it was a GB issue. Same problem, fyi.
Just got sync to work over data network.
Can't get it to work on wifi OR data. It sucks because all the apps that have share capabilities no longer show Facebook as an option, so I can't upload any vids or pics to my wall. Just took some cool videos of me at the motocross track that I wanted to post.
I saw somebody say you need to remove the samsung app from face book website under the website application settings. then remove the face book sync account and readd

Finally got logged in. Not sure what caused the issue, but looks like it was on FB's end and not the phone. Just noticed you can't upload videos directly to FB. Have to send them to YouTube first. That sucks.
Im sure glad I wasn't the only one with this issue, after a while of trying to figure it out, I'm pretty sure the best thing is to try again later, it'll work eventually...

I'll check it out, but I was referring to when you go into the Gallery. When you select Share there is a list of various sites (Photobucket, Gmail, etc.) you can upload to. Facebook is one of the choices in the list when it is a photo, but is not there for videos.

When you go to that share menu, FriendCaster Pro shows up for both video and photo.

Anyone having a problem attaching pics using Gmail app? They never attach, regardless of how I try. Very irritating. I've had to download another email app just to send pics.
No. Mine's fine with the stock Gallery app. But try QuickPic and see if it helps.

I like QuickPic too --- I just like the way it works ---- and Photo Editor works easily for quickly resizing -- I found the attach take forever to load (maybe never load..... I gave up waiting) so I resize the photos,,,, works great.

I noticed the same thing and found that the Gmail app only attaches files that are stored in device storage. Every time I tried to attach a file stored on microsd the message goes through sans attachment.
Not sure if this is a bug or deliberate but it definitely makes the app less useful.
My issue was the opposite. I had a picture attached to an email (.jpg). And on the TF700 when I download or view it, it ends up blank. It works fine and displays fine on my SGS2. But not on the tablet. I tried deleting the saved file and re-downloading it from gmail many times and it was always a blank file with 0 KB.
So i have this sister , she keep using my mom android phone secretly every night. After she finish, i guess he deleted all the call logs and messages in the outbox and inbox coz they are empty everytime i check. Is there any aps in the market that record or keep log on what the user do on that phone? or retrieve deleted messages and logs?
i have an awesome idea,just put the phone on a hidden place,so never need a app or something.
I don't know if there is an exact app your looking for but instead try finding one of those screen recording apps that record everything you do and have your mom set it to record at night that way you can see everything she does on video I can't link to a video because i still have under 10 posts but try searching asc screen recorder for android goodluck

Hello,
After having been away form Android for awhile i just switched to the Note 8. I've only had the phone a few days but I've noticed an odd issue and was hoping someone could help because my web searches aren't finding much.
Every so often when i send a text message it is followed by an ad. On screen it looks like like a web preview (sort of like when you text a link to someone, that little preview of the page you sent). At first i thought that i had somehow linked something to someone by accident.
It appears on screen exactly like i was the one who sent it. Also, the ad shares the same time stamp as the text i actually did send. The people I'm texting don't appear to be able to see them though.
I've not downloaded anything that i can think of that would be at all sketchy, so im not sure what gives. Ive tried to search for mention of this from others but web searches related to text come up with all manner of things. If anyone has seen this before or has any advice it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks very much
So you must have something thing sketchy downloaded.
Did you get the AT&T phone from AT&T or Samsung? Are you using it on AT&T network or do you use a 3rd party carrier?
There are only a few things that could be doing this.
1.) you downloaded a sketchy app and gave it permission to see/use messages and or contacts
2.) you are using a 3rd party messaging apps without realizing it
3.) you are using an off brand carrier that is pushing ads to your phone through one of there apps.
I'd start with seeing what apps have access to your messages, Even system apps, in your app permission settings. If you see something sketchy with access turn off that permission
If you are using a 3rd party carrier then you may have to try to find the app they are using to push ads and use "BK Disabler" to block it.

I have also noticed it when I switched back to the stock messages. What's being displayed is a preview of the web link from the text message. Somehow you enabled it when setting up the messages app. Hope this helps.

I was getting this too. I think I have tracked it down to AT&T Messages Backup & Sync. I believe they are using it kind of like someone doing a MITM attack. believe this because if I wipe all my messages and restore from Samsung backup (with affected message included) the message is not there. If I restore just based solely on the AT&T Messages Backup & Sync backup, then it is there.

The sad part is that NumberSync on ATT requires Messaging Backup. Time to move to TMO or something.

Use hangouts or Allo or Signal messenger instead of the ATT messaging app and sync you contacts to Google.
No need to use ATT apps at all.
I just bought the Note 8 and the first time I opened the Messages app it asked if I wanted to turn web previews on. You may have said yes to that and maybe that is what you are seeing. Go to Messages, Settings, More Settings, and then see if Web Preview is enabled.

Hello,
I noticed that sending mass pictures and videos using Samsung messaging always looks pixelated and blurry (More so videos than pictures). I've tried link share and that always fails. What is the best method everyone is using to share their photos and videos in their full and clear resolution? Iam not interested in flashing or rooting my U.S t-mobile branded Note 20 Ultra and really prefer to stay with the stock Samsung messaging as I like all its other features except for this.
Rooting or flashing? Lol. Are you new to phones? Texting is an old fashioned way of sending media. Don't want compression? Don't text. Use WhatsApp, Facebook messenger, google photos to share your media. Texting will compress the heck out of everything.

I didn't notice this issue using google messaging in the past. That's why I was trying to see if Samsung messaging somehow was the culprit in this case. I do have WhatsApp and Viber but not FB Messenger so I'll check out those two. I'll just have to convince the people on the other end to download those apps I guess. If RCS messaging was standardized across the board by now this problem would not exist. In the mean time Apple has the capable iMessage without any of these issues. By the way I'm not new to phones and a quick search shows a lot of people having the same challenges..

IMessage uses the Internet to send media whereas texting uses the phone network.

I couldn't get it to work as it kept failing. Most likely because I was impatient and trying to share tons of photos and videos to a bunch of people all at once. I wish there was a better option outside of apps (viber, whatsapp etc) that was built in and wouldn't require people to download any of those..

Unfortunately no. You'll have to upload it to a website with full resolution storage. Imagine if millions of people sent full resolution images, we'd run out of storage in a few minutes lol

1. Download an app called Telegram, the setup process is same as whatsapp. Now the person you want to send it to should also have the app.
2. Then click on the paperclip icon and select "FILE" then select "GALLERY" choose the picture or video you want to send. This way the images and videos would be sent without compression.
If you got an amazon prime subscription, you get unlimited cloud storage for picture in original format and size with their Amazon Photo app. You may then be able to share link through it
I found the way thanks to an Italian friend. If you need to go to a full resolution file with whatsapp just go to the attachment symbol, select documents and then move to the photo folder and select the file. Obviously it will arrive uncompressed but it will load it in more time.
For sharring videos use app Venlow and you will be surprised.

I actually use link sharing. It sends the file to the cloud for a couple days, and creates a link that you can share. The limit on the file size is 5gb.. View attachment 5115885
