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.

Top Man thats sounds like the problem!!! Only thing is I have no Idea when it comes to registry editing!
Ever since I upgraded the Xperia to RAA3, the green LEDs that blink on reciept of an unread SMS message, are very dim, I have missed many text messages because of this. Other LED notifications, such as missed call, reminder, etc., are all fine, nice and bright, easy to see, but, the unread SMS is extremely dim. Has anyone else experienced this, or, better still, is this a solution without my messing about with registery items myself.

You rely on those lights to receive sms's? lol
i usually use the vibe or the ringtone, but hey to each his own.
But on a serious note, maybe its dim just because the green is a dark color in itself compared to the others the phone produces.
Hi ........
Yes, I do rely on the flashing LEDs, as, I'm often out of the room or out, when coming back, it's nearly impossble to tell if you an unread SMS etc., without actually turning the phone on.
A small CAB file to increase the brightness of the (green) LEd would be great ...........
Xperia Tweak (in sticky apps collection) lets you change the LED pattern very easily ...have mine on quick blue flashes -nice and bright
Hello Jcsxda
Thanks for taking the trouble to reply, I can't seem to find that particular cab file you mention, an you give me a link if it's not too much trouble.
Also, I recently upgraded (via the offical SE site) to RAA3, will this application still work with the later RAA3?
Thanks in advance

Hello again Jcsxda ........
Seems someone popped in there and broke the thread. If you could please post a link to LED modify prog. for the Xperia, I would be grateful, if you have the time of course.
My green LEDs for an unread SMS are very dim, the others are fine, nice and bright.
Thanks

Orelsi was being helpful -its the first link on the page he posted ... "XperiaTweak v2"
Here is the link to th edevelopper's own site where you can dl the app:-

... Opps, sorry, I didn't realise it at the time! I can see the point now.
Finally, will it work with R3AA, whcih I recently updated to?
Thanks again.
Brian
Yep -am running R3AA myself
....... OK, thanks for that, much appriciated.
try spb phone suite which has a phone notification feature to remind you by sound or tone for any sms or missed calls on a preset time
Dull LEDs on unread SMS, other are fine!
Hi Ericmateo .......
Thanks for that, I did look at the progamme, but it does more than I need, does not modify LED brightness and will probably occupy valuable memory space.
My problem is, the SMS unread LED flash, is very dim regardless of what colour I change it to, this probably means the 'lit' duration is so short, any chosen colour will still be dim.
I only noticed this after upgrading to RAA3. This is my only gripe about the Xperia, I absolutley love the phone, having goe through all the 'XDA' series, this is certainly the best so far.
Anyone else any ideas please?

this is a specific program that is being developed to change the patterns of the LEDs easily.
Check it out. It works a treat and being updated all the time.
hi, every body. I have one question and I thinks others does, too. Is there anyway to change size of contact's photo? I want to add pics of my friends to contacts but it seems to small and quality is so bad. I think it can change via framework or system UI's editting but I'm quite bad at this. So if there a way, plz tell me how to do it, I like the way of Iphone or Window Phone.

About small and low quality image, i think it use for text store! Because export to file to sd, it also backup picture and save as text in one file
Sorry if this not true ^^
I know I am being picky but I do not like the default generic blue caller ID picture that shows up when you receive a call from someone not in your contacts without an associated picture.
Is it possible to find this picture on the phone and replace it with one I like?
Can this be done without rooting? If so anyone know in what directory or where to look on the phone to find this image?
Thanks for any help.
What android version do you have? It worked fine in Kitkat, but yesterday i've updated to latest Lollipop, 23.1.A.0.726, and now i have the same problem again

Good question - I too would be interested in changing this photo to something custom.
U can add a custom photo, but the idea is to see the updated photo from Facebook, in my opinion at least

He doesn't want to add a custom photo for his contacts. He wants to replace the stock blank image for callers that are not saved as contacts. When you receive a call from an unknown number, the image with a blank generic human shadow appears.
Hello guyz, this Phone Is indeed amazing but there Is some little issues for a phone at this Price. First there Is some issues BECAUSE on some menus Instead of the name of the menu i can See numbers like on an " alpha pre-version " // and If you zoom on my picture you can See some white lines (so Strange), i have this issue on a lot of pictures, so Strange that im the only One to report that.
I'd return that mate as I don't have anything like that, somethings clearly not right with your device unfortunately
