How do you recieve bigger MMS pictures? - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I recieve a MMS picture and go to view it, it is very small is only like 3-5kbs. Is there a way to set it to download the picture full quality?

It's a curse of having a WVGA screen. There needs to be a way to resize/enlarge MMS pictures within the messaging app.
If there is a way to do this, I'd like to know too...

It's fixable - do as this message says and the pics will be full size and not compressed to the 5kb you stated: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2926070&postcount=14

Possible fix ...
I had a similar problem on my xperia with the mms pictures showing up very small.
The attached cab fixed mine along with a friends x1 with the same issue.
(Tried to find the original thread I found this but couldn't so I've just reuploaded the cab)

I will give the cab a try since the rededit seems harder. thanks guys!
Ok, so i gave the cab a try and it made it so i couldnt even send or receive mms!
I wanted to to the other suggestion but as i have an X1, the lines are different

I had same issues initially but via regedits upped the send limit to 600kb. I also insert pictures from within the drafted mms. If I select a pic to send via mms directly from say picture viewer, I still get crappy small pic. From within mms it is fine.

Do you mean you didn't try the regedit because it says NokiaN97? It's fine, just put it in, it's just for your network's servers to have an idea of what MMS your phone can handle - NokiaN97 settings are good for the X1.

Hmm ... strange, it fixed the small mms images recieved on my x1.
(I will remove the cab from the previous post.)

Where has the cab gone?

try this cab i made and let me know if it works.

MMS Configuration, or other MMS issues

Short question, maybe someone knows. If I want to add a new Server in MMS Configuration the [New] button is not responding.
How can I re-activate this button.
anyone, help would be appreciated.
Well... this button should be active at all times... So your best bet would be to reflash your device... Sorry man...

Yes I guessed that one, therefore I was hoping to get some "other" advises before I hard-reset and notice the same.
I would search for a cab named "Set_up_MMS_folder" in before going back that far. You already have a folder, but reinstall could help fix whatever you are missing.
Good luck.
I hope that works for you... Please give us a shout if it does, but as far as I know the MMS configuration isn't dependent on whether or not you have an MMS foldor or not. Or for that matter an MMS capable phone... It sounds to me that something messed up flashing the ROM... Witch leads to the next question, did the MMS function work at some time after flashing? Did you install any third party software after that?

No it didn't work, I was re-installing my phone. I installed my normal things, as always, like spb today etc. This time I flashed the std T-mob ROM because I was a little tired of all the small problems I had with the home-cooked and now this...........
The mms folder and everything I have, it's only the stupid button which doesn't work.....
........It's there, but even he color shows it's not active.
Im seriously starting to believe the so called gurus in here arent exactly up to snuff ....so to speak. your problem is simple... you have to browse to regedit..somehow(!! can you figure that out?)
oh, just got it:Total commander, tap the two dots in far right (..)
tap the root (\\)
tap registry/hklm/software/arcsoft/...MMSUA/CONFIG/UI/
DRUMROLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL... now YOU figure out which setting to enable!
nah, it should be EnableServerEdit ...i think, change the value to '1'
voila
THIS DOES NOT MEAN MY MMS IS WORKING...... I HAVE A PERSISTENT PROBLEM BEING UNABLE TO SEND MMS & everyone is CLUELESS!!
aaaaarghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I WANT TO DIE!!!!!!!!! lol
ifull, thanks for the advise, this did the trick. Thanks again, I'm not into registry editing.
I think my problem, as you said, was so simple that the experts thought I would figure this out by myself, LOL.
Thanks again, if I can help you in someway, please PM.
What are the right mms settings
What are the right mms settings, I did the change in the registry as listed above to allow new settings and to see what the current settings are... but can someone look to see what are the correct settings witht the oem rom for the server address..
settings
here are the settings that should be there according to tmo website - http://support.t-mobile.com/knowbase/root/public/tm21387.htm
on mine those are right but what I think the problem is this, when mms is sending it keeps getting interupted by gprs trying to connect. is there a reg hack to let mms send without being disconnected????
I believe in regedit there are some errorlog.txt files that show you the WHOLE transcription of your attempted outbound messages. If I find mine, I will post it as it shows where the delivery went wrong.
so are you trying to say your 'mms fix' of a day or so ago is not quite "fixed" or what?
re:
this whole mms thing is starting to make me feel like its a tmo network issue and not the device, just never know...but I did flash my rom to X's 2.26 w/ 2.47 radio
mms fix i think
once u hak the reg and change the setting as listed earlier to allow settings edit... click on tmobile mms settings and it should show the settings that were downloaded from tmo...but u want to change the option that says connect via mms --) to connect via data..
I just did that and it sent right away...
it works, click on the tmobile mms server and then change the connection to via data instead of mms... I just sent a message to my self and it sent it out my outbox in less than 30sec for a 75k file

I think the settings are operator dependend
hey vilem, youre welcome on the regedit server setting.. i was laughing at the time I read your reply, as I knew all too well the relief you felt!
robpet, these fixes just get nearer and nearer the ultimate FIX. Still cant send., it only makes a better attempt at sending now(I can see it connecting), but theres a setting SOMEwhere still preventing transmission.
the error logs are in
mydocuments/uacontents/mmslog
perhaps we can compare logs, mine now say
WRONG!!!! no mms date
WRONG!!!! no from address
and I think thats my problem, but dont know where to set it.
thanks

Yes thanks again, I had to do some regedit fixes, like I deleted the whole tree below what you mentioned. Now I'm able even to set as default.
I renamed the thread, because I know a lot of people have problems with MMS.

I would assume, that you could install a different version of arcsoft mms, in order to fix it... bc it should just override the missing arcsoft files or whatever.
I also use mms on a daily basis. I flashed last nite and didn't noticed the mms prob until this morning... so when I get home tonite, I'll see if I can come up with something. But you should be able to search and find an arcsoft cab somewhere... if you do, try installing it. Obviously, we'd all like to find the newest version..
I found a post over in the kaiser forum about trying to extract version 5.xx of the arcsoft mms.. so hopefully that will solve our problems if someone is able to make that available.
thanks kamal, for sharing that...ill try to keep my acronym usage down for your sake...didnt mean to offend you or anyone else with "lol" im truely sorry i hope me and you can be bff someday and we will rofl about this..lmao lolol )
ohh and duprade, i tryed downloading arcsoft...but i had no success. maybe u kno if you have to copy some of the arcsoft files to directory or something bc my attempt to download it didnt solve the problem...
thanx in advance
Arcsoft_MMS_5.0.31.7.cab
someone ows duprade 1000 bux
found more problems...seeing if neone can relate
thanx a lot for the arcsoft cab..im gonna try it right now..
i ran into a few other problems tho...
1. the calendar soft key gives me an error HTCcalendar cannot be opened..but oddly enough i can open it through programs..but through the softkey it gives me an error...i tryed to fix it with the softkey changer but still no luck....
sms typing area or whatever u call it gets cut off..its some sort of glitch..

sms typing area = threadded sms = chat window like
calendar is called calendar.exe not HTCcalendar.exe. you have to cahnge the reghack for using softkeychange.
ok i found the registry hack for the calendar , sry for wasting space...but has neone had the chat window get cutt off ???
no money for duprade yet..MMS still doesnt work...when i go to send a mms it just hangs there and doesnt send.....what can be done?

I'm guessing a soft reset didn't help matters for you, because it didn't for me. Somewhere somehow someone with figure out something

If you click the keyboard icon on the screen, this makes the reply window the correct size so you can see what you are typing. You can think resume normal typing once the window has enlarged...I am also missing my mms!
well, here's a cab that will setup your settings correctly for MMS ... but its still not working on my end... and im too tired to keep messing with it... but Im working with some other people on this .. so hopefully we'll get it solved soon.
i appreciate all the help..but where's the cab.? haha

I like the Itje's most recent rom release (6.1 black version), but reverted bacl to his previous rom release (ItsBlack) due to the stability, particularily the MMS issue. Would you or anyone else know the advantages or differences from this MMS cab's version over the HTC ArcSoft MMS 4.2.8.1?
the biggest advantage would be that arcsoft doesnt work! atleast not on 6.1black...i been trying to find some sort of solution...its really frustrating...but 6.1 black seems very stable to besides the mms issue....
has ne1 came close to finding the answer to our mms problem?
I love Black 6.1, and im dealing with the missing MMS (tho the dirty pics from chicks is sorely missed). Im just gonna wait since David and his "team" are working on it. They came thru with the keyboard fix....i have faith.
Quick side question (sorry to thread hijack as im in need of the MMS fix), how do you change the colors of the home icons?
What exactly is the issue with the MMS? It works on my ROM, maybe someone can compare the two's files and find out what's missing...

MMS picture in full size?

When I receive a mms picture message, the picture always comes out extra small then it should be. Is there anyway to fix the dimension size and get the MMS picture view in full size?

I think it must depend on the size of the picture you've been sent - as mine have always been full screen. Bear in mind that the Diamond has a VGA (640x480) screen and most phones send MMS pics at a lesser resolution.
The way to view full screen is to open the MMS pic, click 'Contents' which will then let you see text01.txt and Image001.jpg (or similar) which are the parts of the message. If you hold your finger / stylus on Image001.jpg then you get an option to Save. If you save the file then it gets saved in My Pictures and is viewable in the TouchFlo Photos and Videos... which means you can zoom in using the scrollwheel.
Your operator can also cut down the size to save traffic. It's done on the mmsc server, I believe.
I am also experiencing this problem, The Pics are only coming in at 4k, and when saved as suggested by p3eps It won't let me zoom in. Pics are about the size of a finger nail on the screen which just isn't good enough!
I am going to phone o2 to see if they are restricting something but I am on a unlimited data package so I don't see why they would.
If anyone else has any thoughts would appreciat it!

I've experienced the same problem with my original Orange ROM.
Since I've flashed my Diamond with the original HTC ROM I am able again to receive MMS picture in their original size and not in thumbnail mode !!!
But I've experienced this problem with other HTC models. I think it's a problem with the ROM install. A hard reset could fix the problem. Perhaps.
O2 in the UK do this, if the network doesn't recognise your phone it automatically downsizes the picture. I had this problem with my htc s710. I had to edit some registry setting to make the o2 network think my phone was an xda and it worked.
I cant find the post i found it in, but in sure if was under the networking folder on this forum.

Enlarging pics in email (zoom capable at all?)

Hey guys, I get a few different emails that have pictures with surrounding text. And since i've upgraded from WM 6.0 to 6.1 for some reason the pics are so small that i can't read the text that is on them. Is there anyway to enlarge the pics at all or zoom into them? I searched and saw someone refer to scrolling, that didn't work. And as far as changing the text size, well that changes the text size AROUND the pics, but not the pic itself.
anyone got any insight? i've started to notice that with lots of my emails when i download the pics they are all scaled down in size which is making them blurry and illegible
ok, i tried changing roms, changing from imap4 to pop and nothing is working. and its not just the dilbert daily email i receive, its all emails with pics in them. all images are blurry, and im' not sure whats up with it. does ANYONE have any idea how to fix blurry images. tried looking under gmail support for pop/imap4 and didn't find a thing.
Emails with embedded images will have them resized whatever you do, short of switching to using another mail application. If the images are attachments then clicking on them will bring up the image viewer and it will be fine.

the reason I've been concerned about it is I used to have the emails open up just fine when I first got my phone and set up email with the q-mobile 1.2 ROM. I dunno if the ROM somehow effected it, but I was always able to read the images in the emails. as soon as I went to 6.1 I lost it. tried 6.1 w/out the bloaatware, duttya 6.1, and not a treo fans manilla 2d now. but if email is always "supposed" to be like this I guessi have to settle then

I also faced this issue with the daily dilbert mails. no i do the below and it works fine.
First click on download internet pictures. Dont click on tab to scroll right now. Let it download the pictues, and then click the tab to scroll right link and you can see the comic is a bigger size. hope this helps

ok ill give that a shot tomorrow when I get their next email, hopefully it works
i dont know the hell is going on with my phone, but after a while it went back to display the images properly, now its back to showing them improperly. And i just figured out whats wrong with it. Its not that its not downloading the pictures appropriately, its that when i click the "tap to scroll" it doesn't "unwrap" the images all the way. for example, at the top of the email there is actually a long picture selction bar that says "home-->most popular-->strips-->animation->mashups->blog" in my desktop email these are all in line with one another. but for some reason why i click tap to scroll, blog appears on a second line.
anyone know whhat could be stopping the images from fully "unwrapping"?

Ya everything is set right. Every pic I send and recieve look like this.
unsure what to tell you....picture sizing is controlled by server side from my understanding....what resolution are you taking pictures @camera....just curious....
3M why?.....
Has anyone figured out anything for this yet? Plz say yes
