Change MMS size limit - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I use the rom Dwang 1.13 and it seems that the MMS size is limited to 10KB, is there anyway to remove this limitaton or the increase the size limit.
According to other roms users, it seems the Dude roms or Cyano roms have the same problem.
I edited the mms_config.xml, I changed the size of the mms but it did not helped.
This is my conf:
G1
SPL: Danger SPL
Rom Radio: 2.22.19.26I
Rom: Dwang 1.16 Customized.

Aren't mms limited by the provider?
Use email instead.

The provider limitation is 300KB, in our case we can't send more than 10.
Many users in France can send or received MMS for free whereas they should pay for a mail.
Stiil searching for a solution....

I have 3 suggestions
1. Talk to dwang himself and mention it to him. Perhaps he does not even know about this and solution may be trivial. I would have no clue that this is the case since I don't use mms at all.
2. There is an upgraded MMS app in the development section, that may have an option of bigger size messages.
3. Try using on of those alternative messaging apps from the market (like hancent sms). I don't know if that has an option that you're looking for but worth a try.
Good luck.

Thank for your suggestion.
I'll give you a feedback
Bye

MMS not working after AKU2 Upgrade on 8125

As a newbie, I shocked myself that the rom upgrade went so smoothly! Push email is working great with 4smartphone, and the 8125 flies!
I installed a few of the original .cabs (smartdial, mms, edge icon) but I cannot get mms to work.
I had no MMS account option until I installed the MMS cab, but since then the account is there and I receive MMS messages no problem...except for 1 thing:
When the messages arrive, they download what appears to be the attachment, but the icon shows as a vertical black box attached to the message, and I cannot open the picture at all. I can redownload no problem...but the picture won't appear.
Also..the phone keeps trying to redownload the picture every couple of minutes.
Any ideas? Is there another cab I need to install?
thanks.
I am 99% sure I have the settings correct, as they were taken from c
problem is you installed Cingular's cabs on a new rom. Which rom are you using anyway? can't post too much information, but as you have, you can always post too little.
I am using the newer Qtek rom on my 8125 and mms works great. it also worked great on the Imate 2.16.9.1 ROM. But I just installed the default titled roms from the Imate and allowed the customization to happen for the Qtek. Then manually configured MMS Server as the MMS account was there after running the new cabs.
I am using the new ROM but I do not use MMS, howver I will note that QTEK's EXT rom has MMS cabs, I would advise doing a hard reset and letting the QTEK EXT Rom run. I couldn't find ANYTHING in the EXT that would be unwanted (*except MMS for me since I dont use it, but I still let it install, meh.) I don't know if I can send MMS with my current plan, I have unlimited internet but no sms plan or mms plan as far as I know... can I send and receive MMS? If so I will test it for you.
Later; Lew
you would get charged for sending them, I think 15 or 25 cents per message... but no need... I am using the Qtek ROM 2.17.7.2 allowed it to run the customization (ie all EXTRom cabs installed) and after I setup the MMS server it worked fine. Send and Receive.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=244432#244432 -- instructions I created to setup GPRS/EDGE and MMS
Some people want to be notified that they are on EDGE and if you don't want to make a simple reg edit (change a 0 to a 1) then you can use the Cingular EXT Rom that sets the EDGE icon.
LOL, I thought the cab file had the ICON inside... care to share the registry value it changes? I liek making my own changes. =)
Thanx; Lew
Haaa.. Haa... nope... just this.
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\EnableDifferGprsEdgeIcon

well...it seems I got it working.
I downloaded the newest imate released aku2 rom and reflashed the phone with it (after unlocking, etc.) As per everyones instructions, I hit the soft reset when it asked for the carrier so I didn't get any of the customization.
I then installed a few of the cingular cabs (mms, edge icon, smart dialer) and everything worked perfectly...except mms.
I found a thread at howard where someone had the same problem, and I found that I also needed to install 2 other cingular cabs. sms. and something with EON in it. After I did that, MMS worked perfectly.
so...as of now...the phone is flying (even with the few cingular cabs I installed.) no lockups, push email is working great.
keeping my fingers crossed. If I start having some problems, I will take your advice and hard reset. Until then...it is working very very well....mainly because of all the help and tips I got on this forum!

I agree, I'm glad this forum is here.
In fact, speaking of help and tips on this forum.....
dude!!!! I can't believe you didn't post some type of link to those files or atleast threads!!!!! To help others towards a solution!!!!

Ah well, back to the search function.

MMS WM6 Crossbow Little Pictures

for the record i have a wizard G3 (MDA) and i am running wm6 crossbow with arcsoft 3.0.7.19
I have several gripes about arcsoft 3.0.7.19 or watever the one is thats available.
1. it seems to be made for wm2003, am i the only one who noticed that it doesnt have softkey support?
2. the whole poutlook program is jus wrong.lol. the soft key that used to be for new, now says delete and the new option is in a context menu. what sense does that make?
3. the mms program always downsamples my pictures 10k no matter how large they are when i send them they come to my fone at 10k and 160x120 or sumthing abstraneously small.
i make these gripes not becuz im not appreiatrive i jus hope someone has figured out a fix to these issues and im not the only one experiencing these issues
also is there anyway to use the arcsoft mms from the 2.26 ship tmobile rom, seeing as there as been no progress on why the 3.5 from xplode doesnt install?
sorry for the rant, thanks in advance
no ideas? bump?
Atleast we have arcsoft but i have that problem too but every one that i know has regular phones so its good for me. i think you have to cange the setting from arcsoft and in the picture viewer too so that you can send them bigger or original size. some one correct me if im wrong doing this from memory.

arcsoft mms composer version is 4.2.8.1

i wanted to know if there was a way to fix the way it receives incoming mms. they appear small like thumbnails and not their full size for some reason.. can anyone help
the q mobiles ms composer version is 4.2.8.1
could someone provide me a solutionat that works. ive tried a number any nothing affects the size of the mms
search and u shall learn.. it has to due with the phone ur using + settings + provider.. maybe if u explained which model/provider ur using people would be more prone to help.
ex.
att tilt
att
or..
kaiser tytn2
tmobile ....so on
at&t tilt unlocked
q mobile 1.2
t mobile USA
anyway i could get some help itried all the oslutaitons i could find.. still thumbnail pictures incoming.. even if i send one to myself thats big
i can send out big photos
I highly suggest you ask in Quentin's thread. No need to create a new thread. Better yet, did you check his wiki? Maybe the answer has already been posted.
Sounds like the same problem as I had on O2. You may need to try this but use the settings from a phone that your carrier supplies....

EnergyROM can't add a MMS server?

hey everyone. I flash EnergyROM two days ago, and I'm facing a rather important bug that trouble me, I can't add a MMS server from Messages - All Messages - menu - Settings - Options - MMS server, when I click "new" to add a new MMS server, there is not any response, nothing happens. I wonder if some other guy who flash the same ROM is facing the same problem and how can I fix it? THX very very much!
Here is my machine's information, SE X1 with EnergyROM KOVSKY 20090914 StandardM2.5.
Shouldn't you ask this in the EnergyROM thread rather than start a new thread?

I'm sorry but There are too many replies in EnergyROM thread..
i m having the same problem, but a little bit different, i can set up the mms server, but it does not work in any way, i was searching in registry and found many entries with HTCs servers, cingular servers, but i m brazil, and cant put the mms to work, even changing tre registry entries, but as i dont know very well how to manipulate the registry its still not working, both ways sending and receiving
MMS Issue with Energy ROM
Yeah.. I totally love this particular rom of all the ones out there and picture messaging hasn't worked for me either.. I'm U.S.-ATT
I've actually been sending via email as a work around because I like the rom that much.. Hope this does get resolved...
That problem is due to the leo message app? I have never really got mms working properly when using different roms with it cooked in. Try setting up the connection manually.
Well, i had already tested the jack4.x rom, MultimediaOS from KidDc(i think) and this perfect and bealtiful energy rom, and the only one that was able to send mms was the multimediaOS, but the ROM is ugly and still imature, no good for me...
Im using the operator TIM here in brazil...
if anyone has the solution...
I dont know too, if the energyROM already comes with arcsoft, or it attempts to send via other software(because in system/remove programs, it does not show nothing)
PS: in the multimediaOS the arcsoft version was 5.0.43.98, but neither google could find it...

THANKS. It really works. but with a pity that can't use HTC message, I love the beautiful looks.

recieving very small mms! PLEASE HELP

Hey there,
I have a touch diamond 2 with official ROM and i live in armenia i use MTS armenia sim card i went to costumer support they said its my phone problem and my phone is scaling the picture down but i dont belive in that.i read the other posts i tested the registry tweak but it didnt work someone please help me.
Yeah the phone has a higher res screen and the picture was sent from a phone with a small screen and sorry camera or screen size. That is why your picture is small. Try saving it and viewing it with the HTC album and Zoom-in. That should work.
no that is not the problem becuz the pictures recieved are max 3kb. so its a thumb.
Glad you asked this question as I have the same problem on o2 in uk. I tried the reg tweak from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=359584 but it didn't help.
I'm hoping somebody has been able to solve it and can post.
I just want to add a +1 to this. Im currently using Duttys WM6.5 ROM R5 going to use R6 now, could it be a setting that is wrong?
im using the topaz essential 3.7 rom and this solved my "tiny" mms problems that i had with the other roms. hope this helps!
sounds like post#2 had it right. While you CAN change the max send/receive limit on MMS messages... typically they are 300k by default; usually the receive limit is 600kb. Here is my edited MMS Settings I cook with. I increase my limits up to 600k send and 1Mb receive. SampleMMSC is just the name I used, it could be anything.
You can check this:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\mm1\MMSCSetting\[b]SampleMMSC[/b]]
"waptype"=dword:00000001
"GatewayPort"=dword:00000050
"MmscURI"="http://mmsc.cingular.com"
"Gateway"="wireless.cingular.com"
"Name"="AT&T MMS"
[b]"WAP1RecvDefaultSize"=dword:000FA000
"WAP2RecvDefaultSize"=dword:000FA000[/b]
"SendDefault"=dword:00096000
"ConnectionVia"="{B2AD7D1D-2C4B-494B-B324-42EEC882B71B}"
[b]"WAP1SendDefaultSize"=dword:00096000
"WAP2SendDefaultSize"=dword:00096000[/b]
"ISP"="SampleMMSC"
Looking at this code, WAP1RecvDefaultSize = FA000 (1024kb or 1mb)
WAP1SendDefaultSize = 96000 (600kb)
But I think the reasoning is that most phones don't have a high resolution. So full screen on my wife's phone is 240x320... plus most phones compress the image down for sending via MMS to usually 120x160... which as you can imagine would look tiny on our 480x800 screens. Just depends on the phone.
my registry entry is correct:
"WAP1RecvDefaultSize"=dword:000FA000
"WAP2RecvDefaultSize"=dword:000FA000
The problem for me is definitely with my carrier - o2.
As my TD2 is not from o2 and they don't actually sell this phone, they don't recognise the user-agent in WspHeader. Because they don't recognise it, they then compress the mms image right down to between 3 and 6k. I can send full size mms and they are received by others fine but anything I receive is compressed. I have sent myself mms - it leaves at around 250k but arrives at 6k.
I have found posts about changing the user-agent and profile in WspHeader to a device that o2 recognises but none of these changes have worked for me.
I'd be interested to see what anyone else on o2 (uk) that can receive mms of 300k, has for their user-agent and profile in the registry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\mm1\WspHeader\User-Agent]
and
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\mm1\WspHeader\Profile]

Has been driving me nuts for weeks as well However I was sure that when I first got the phone (pre flashing cooked ROMS) that I received MMS @ full size.
So today, in desperation I flashed the official Topaz 6.5 ROM. Sent a test MMS to myself and hey presto it came back full size YAY.
Looking at the registry for Arcsoft/Arcsoft MMS UA/Config there are a hell of a lot more subkeys and values than was in the cooked ROM, so next step is to copy everything down reflash the cooked ROM and add all the subkeys and values. I may be some time LOL
I have exactly the same problem, flashed mine with 'Duttys Topaz WM6.5 Leo R7 WWE' rom, now I recieve tiny MMS pictures. Also on O2 (UK) with non branded phone.
Druboo please can you post what changes you have to make to correct this problem, I know it may take a while to sort but it will help all of here.
Thanks
Can now receive full size MMS on Duttys ROM
First things first, I use CERegEditor as a pc based regedit for my TD2 - So not sure if it will work with other regeditors. However, if Druboo's using it, it must have been free
With the stock 6.5 ROM still on the phone I made a backup of the Registry saved as Stock ROM.
Re-flashed Dutty's ROM and made a backup of it's Registry Saved as Dutty's ROM.
Then did a compare between Stock ROM and Dutty's ROM just for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA which resulted in 12 subkeys and 199 values extra in the Stock Rom. Saved the differences as Differences.
Imported Differences onto Dutty's ROM. Test MMS and hot to trot
Hope it works for you too

Is this cabbed up somewhere? I have no idea how to implement it but I am having this problem.
New Place to Edit
Well my previous fix no longer works on Sense 2.5 ROMS
It appears that the mms servers are now given the phone information from a different location. The good news for us poor belligered O2 UK users is that the Topaz is finally recognised in the Server database.
Point your reg editors to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Jataayu\MMS\SP
Make UAProfile="http://www.htcmms.com.tw/gen/HTC_Touch_Diamond2_T5353-1.0.xml"
& UserAgent="HTC_Touch_Diamond2_T5353/arcsoft-mmsua-5.2.0.xx" and you should be back in business.
