The wing shrinks my incoming pictures. For example if a picture is sent at 239kb the phone shrinks it to 7kb as it is recieved before I even view it. Is there something to correct this issue?

I'm surprised that I'm the only one taking a stand on this issue:
Hasn't anyone noticed that when receiving MMS pictures with the new crossbow roms they are downscaled dramatically? No longer are we able to receive the full file size of the picture message sent. For example, if a friend were to send you a 91kb picture message, your HTC device would download the file and downscale it to 160x120 with size 5-15kb. At first i thought this was a network issue, but when i tried the standard T-mobile rom and the Custom WM5 rom 2.26 by Xelecin, i was able to receive the picture messages in actual size.
Is everone content receiving microscropic choppy picture messages? Is there some type of registry fix for this?
I just took a 640x480 pic on my phone. File size is 63K. I then used my phone to send the pic to myself. The incomming MMS had a 63K, 640x480 pic attached. I'm running the new Faria WM6 ROM.
I'm pretty sure when I sent a pic with WM6 MBE to my wife, she got a full sized pic also (but I really didn't check it).
PM me and I can MMS you a pic, and you can send on to me so we can compare results if you want.
BTW:Have you verified in your MMS settings that "Photo Resolution" is set to Original? QQVGA (160x120) is one of the options here, which seems to be what you are seeing happen. Go to MMS, then click Menu > Tools > Options..., Click on MMS, and under Preferences tab scroll to the bottom for Photo Resolution.
Hi I have just got a diamond and when I receive an MMS message the picture is saved on the phone as a very small thumbnail and not as the original picture that was sent. HTC helpline tell me this is how the phone is supposed to work and cannot be changed - does anyone know of a work around to stop the picture being reduced as this seems pretty stupid?
I call total bollocks on whoever told you that!
It's O2 that crop the pictures, and not the phone.
Just tried it on my t-mobile sim and happily sending 1280x960 photo's without any cropping.
Seems O2 still limit the size of the MMS messages, which is one of the reasons i left them years ago, along with their ludicrously high data charges and **** customer service.
Thanks for the response - I have just changed from an XDA Orbit which was also on O2 without this issue - do you know if O2 have more than 1 set of settings for MMS?
I will be changing from O2 at the earliest their data tariffs are absurd in this day and age - for both web and email 4MB caost £5 - just web browsing and they will give you 200MB for 7.50.
Actually its not the sending of the MMS that's the issue it's the receiving. When I send them the other person receives without any issues when someone sends to me they are cropped
When you say cropped - can you post an example? Not calling you stupid or anything but are you seeing the tiny little picture in the thread and doing what I stupidly did and assumed that was it but for some odd reason you have to fiddle and click on the tiny picture to get the big one?
Or have you turned threading off and not seeing this?
Yep it's the picture that appears in the thread of the conversation view you get for MMS and SMS. when you click on the picture icon it opens a full page with the tiny picture in the middle - if you try and save that picture it is only about 4K. I've clicked on properties from the message and it just gives the details of the file and says its 4K. The picture that was sent was much larger
how do I turn the threading off?
Solution
Unzip attached and import in ur Diamond using Resco Explorer then Restart. It fixed the problem 4 me.
Thanks for the MMS fix - that has made a huge improvement. The pictures are still being compressed but they are large enough to view on the screen now.
how exactly are you suppose to import this fix using resco explorer??? i am having the same problem as you guys and would like to fix this problem too, thanks for your help
download the file and copy it to the device.
install resco and then use the registry component to import the file into the registry.- once you have installed resco it will be self explanatory.
resco can be found as a trial at handango.com

I have a TyTN II and want to be able to have a full screen picture of the person who's calling when they ring my phone. I have it set at the moment where it shows a small picture next to the name. Is there any way of doing this?
Thanks
try S2U2...ther is a option for full screen caller ID.
That works a treat, thanks alfa.
How come when the sms message gets too long, it will be converted to MMS? How do I solve this problem?

I think your confused.. Im going to assume your trying to send a picture and it says its too large so its converting it to an mms right?
Actually, he's right. On my G1 when I hit so many characters (usually by the end of the 3rd set of 160) it changes to MMS. The reason it does this is so the network can better handle the message. Sending as 3 seperate texts would take more time for the network to submit, store, and resend, than 1 MMS message would.

No he isnt confused, when you sent a text that goes over a certain amount of characters it converts it into a mms, i dont think you can stop it from converting it but what you can do is send multiple text massages under the conversion limit
Oh okay, so there is nothing I can do about it?
Not really no. Just when you get to a certain limit and the counter appears showing how many characters you have left, just send it, and start on the next one
Send shorter messages, send an email or IM...
SMS converts to MMS when it gets 3 messages long..it has a character count so stop right before it converts and send it and continue in a new text
ok you want to rid this problem but i would like my tilt to do this aoutmaticly, any way?
Yeah, download HandCent SMS application. It will solve this application.
Hi All,
Not sure if this was ever brought up in this forum ?
When I attach a picture to a MMS, the picture will always be display horizontally.
So even if I take a picture vertically, inside the MMS the orientation will be wrong.
But the picture will display with the right orientation in the Gallery.
It's not that big of a deal, but it's annoying to have to flip your phone every time you receive a MMS...
So do you guys know if there is a way to fix that ?
I tried replacing the Samsung Stock Messaging apk with the Vanilla one from Google, but it didn't fix it.
Any other ideas ?
Thanks!
i have the same problem...it's really annoying when uploading to fb and then having to go into fb to rotate it
My current work around for that is to use a third-party Camera App (like Vignette) and use it when I select Attach/Capture Picture in the MMS app.
But if I have a vertical picture that's already in my gallery I can't find a way to attach it with the proper orientation.
Glad I am not the only one having that issue.
