So lately on 2.2 - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Everytime I try and save a picture it saves it as thumbnail you get in the messages and when you open it comes out blurry it does this both on Gallery and Gallery3D.
Anyone have any ideas?

So many views.
Also this is happening on my friend Mytouch Fender as well.

User error.

LMAO.
I meant when we receive MMS the picture are small and or blurry.
I read somewhere that it's a T-mobile fault because we're a head of the game on rom's so they automatically resize it to the smallest. :/

this is due to how your phone is set up to handle mms. in messages go to settings and see if there's an option to spoof your phone as a different model for mms. i use custom and type in "nexusone"
works like a charm. this problem totally turned me off from froyo and i was so excited to find the fix

Latitude

Latitude would be so much better if it would let me save my pic anyone else have this issue with the new rc33. It allows me to select one and then crop it but as soon as I get outta that menu it doesnt save and cant see an option to do so. Anyone else have this issue or know how to fix?

By default Latitude uses your Google pic. Have you tried setting a pic inside Gmail?

I guess when I selected the pic it updated igoogle but not on my phone I dont understand????
One possible explanation is that the phone is showing cached icons rather than the freshest ones from the server. When you upload the pic to Google's servers (either via phone or computer), the phone is still using the cached old pic. It might take a few hours for the app to get the new pic from the server. You can see this same behavior in the Google Talk pc client.
BOO

RC33 Jf mod latitude stuck in agree and share screen
Hi
I just upgraded to RC33 jf mod. have been trying out the new features.
I cant get Latitude to worl. whenever i try to start latitude, i get stuck at the agree and share screen. i get a busy icon with the message "saving your selection" and nothing happens
I have tried saving it using edge,3G and wifi.
the browser works fine so it should not be a network issue.
any ideas?
I'm also experiencing same issue
Upgraded to JFv1.41_RC33 w/ wifi and maps gets stuck on "saving your selection" after agreeing to latitude TOS.
Do you know if this issue is specific to JF/RC33. Would like to try out latitude.
Thanks

I previously had JFv1.41_ADP1.1 installed, then switched to JFv1.41_RC33 (to use latitude).
I did a wipe in recovery mode (alt+w) then installed JFv1.41_RC33, and followed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=452316 - phone doesn't have a sim card), and now latidude let's me agree to TOS, and works fine. I wonder if there was an issue with the google account since it was registered w/ ADP1.1 instead of RC33.

a wipe fixed the problem
Not a day goes by where I don't see someone having issues cos they didn't wipe after an update. I don't care if you are going between build types or not. If you update, you wipe. Case closed.
WTF is wipe? Sorry just don,t get it :S

do a wipe
Yes, I've found you must do a wipe (alt+w) when installing jf1.4.1 to get latitude to work correctly.

I think my phone is bugged, any help?

Yes this is the development thread, and all I really have is a problem, but I think it's something only solvable by you devs.
My phones sms has been completely Effing up lately.
I will get the notification up in the bar, and I can pull that down and read into the message, but if I open Handcent or the default app the text won't show up and will not be there.
So reasonably I stopped using Handcent, and Message widget and all sorts or things like that, wiped my phone, cleared the partition, flashed a new rom. Different firmwares [1.6 and the new open eclair]
But nothing really seems to help or work, apparenlty mms has been failing a lot which I know is more so on Tmobile's end then it is my phone but idk whats up, tonight I get this new Android notification
"com.android.mms a large number of sms messages are being send. select "ok" to continue of "cancel" to stop sending"
whenever I hit send, I haven't yet rebooted to see if it persists but it's a pain.
Is there any device log or collection I can submit so someone can look into it, possibly a bug? Virus? Somethin' stupid like that?
Thanks.
p.s. and my inbox isn't full or anything ridiculous like 1000+ messages, I've got about less than 50 currently, and when I said stopped using Handcent and MessageWidget, I mean uninstalled.
This happened to me on rare occasions while I was using Handcent. But it doesn't happen when I use the default messaging app. So I assumed it was due to handcent. Not quite sure why you're getting the other problems though... =/
This happened to me as well when I changed to a 2.1 rom. I chose to go back to Dwangs 1.6 rom until the 2.1 roms have been completely stable.
Hey try using ChompSMS. I think its better than Handcent SMS

That doesn't sound good at all.
Have you checked with t-mobile to see if you are sending a stupid amount of text messages? It could be someone is sending spam messages via your phone or something. It could explain why you are unable to receive messages.
I think you are from the government, trying to find out whom on here knows how to subvert there android espionage. I for one will state to you officer, that I know nothing about this, and am stupid to the whole concept of bugs.
PS Do not try to trace my post, as both me and my computer are wearing tinfoil hats (with the shiny side out).
In all reality, one trick I learned as a teenager to check if your phone may be bugged, is to find an old business that still uses a switchboard phone system (this was hard in the early 90's, and may be impossible now) and phone them. If your phone was bugged, then they would see two lines coming in as one and become quite confused.
Whoa guys, by "bugged" I meant viruses not I'm being spied on haha.
It's occured on the 2.1 build Open Eclair
and a Cyan 1.6 build.
With and without using alternative applications for messaging.
I got sick and tired of it so I decided to go back to my most solid rom I've ever used.
A Soul Life 1.5 build, and I haven't had any troubles yet.
When I preformed the nandroid backup however it still tried to act like my sd card was partitioned and the market was buggy for a few but the cache is cleared up and it's all good now.

Froyo: Picture wont resize when sending mms

Does anyone else have this problem? The pictures wont resize when I send them out, resulting in a picture that almost one MB and most people cant even recieve them.
and many people can't even send them! sending using handcent they get resized to a manageable size.
Can also use picsay (works fine with Froyo) to resize pictures for MMS
This sizing problem was also present in 2.1. Looks like they haven't fixed it on this build, maybe the official update will be fixed.

This is how I've always done it, although I must admit I was disappointed to find Google hadn't fixed this for 2.2 given how simple it is to adjust.
with froyo FRF85B this problem with mms size don't disappear
My superphone cant send picture messages. That is so stupid. SO STUPID.
Edit: maybe it's because I'm on cheap ass t-mobile? My wife's slide usually gets "generic network failire" when trying to send or receive mms. I wish I knew who to complain about
Mms.apk can be modified to change the size if you've got root.
I have to say though, it's monumentally stupid of Google to have done this.
EDIT: Complain here, maybe some notice will be taken: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=6231, wouldn't hold your breath though, I created that issue in Jan.

Group messaging, if not enabled in your Messaging App Settings will prevent them from downloading.
Set it up and see if that helps.
If it's ALL MMS messages, I'm not sure I have a suggestion.
EDIT:
And I guess to add, on custom ROMs with different devices I've used in the past, MMS messaging has always seemed to be one of those things that has big issues. In fact, I lived without getting pics for a long time on my old phone. What are you running? You can scour its XDA thread for "MMS" -- bet you'll find something if there's an issue.

duplicating pictures from message app

Hello all,
Found a really strange thing.
I sent a picture from the stock message app ( also on t-mobile) . when I delete the picture from the gallery, it deletes the picture from the camera folder, but then adds the picture into a picture folder.
I have tried deleting the picture folder, but it keeps coming back and duplicating the images. I have tried this on all 3 of our Note 5's and it does it to all of them.
I have not been able to find a setting to turn this off, or a reason why it does it.
Anyone else know about this ?
Noticed that too, seems that itll create a separate folder with all the picture messages you send via text
Yeah, this is annoying. It's really one of the only gripes I have about the phone that I can't figure out. I don't want to use another gallery app and I don't want to root. Not sure how to fix it.
I hate this so much does anyone know how to fix it?

You just need to look at the camera album instead of using the time view.
That doesn't work.
Is this happening to anyone else or just some people?
