MMS small picture

I'm using a Samsung Captivate unlocked on the Tmobile US network.
Incoming MMS get resize, I know Tmobile does this cause it's not a phone they recognized. Everytime I get an unlock phone this happen and I know I need to change the user agent to a phone they recognized.
I saw a few post on how to do it but it's for other phones, not sure if those fix will work for the Captivate. Anyone with a Captivate on TMOUS able to fix this problem yet?
Thank you
Bump, anyone?

Can anyone at tell me what to change in the picture?
Dude, I gave you an Mms.apk that has exactly what you're looking for on the other thread you posted about this. Take the apk I gave you and move it into system/app or just flash my ROM.

I did take your mms.apk from the other thread and try it.
It did not work. Maybe I'm installing it wrong.
Is ADB the only method to push it to the phone?
I'm transfering it to my SD card, copy it and using Root Explorer paste it into
system/app but when I go to open the application, the MESSAGING icon is not there.
What ROM are you using?
Thanks for your time
Can someone tel me if I'm doing this right.
-Using Root Explorer extract a copy of Mms.apk from phone
-rename Mms.apk to Mms.zip
-WinRar extract the MMS.zip
-locate the mms_config.xml
-using hex editor changed the UA string (see picture).
-rezipped mms folder and change name to Mms.zip to Mms.apk
-put back into system/app
-reboot phone but the Messaging icon disappeared.
Also after editing mms_config.xml and save, there's an extra file
call mms_config.xml.bak, leave that file alone or what to do with it?
Thank you to anyone that can give me some help
Anyone? A little help?

white themed app
hi,
sometimes i do changes in the ROM itself by copying the apps that i like from a ROM to another ROM.
when u open the ROM by winRAR, open system/app, then drag and drop the good apps that u like. better that u make a copy for the ROM which u want to not loose the original one. i will upload u the Phone.apk and Contacts.apk from a ROM that its white themed. and then reflash the rom. i don't know if it will work or not but other applications worked with me. anyway make a backup to not loose anything and try it. plz tell me what will happen with u. i wish it can help u
Thanks!!! It's works!! I've changed phone.apk, contacts.apk and mms.apk and than i've flash via CMW and all works well!!!
Instructions: download the rom.zip on your pc. Open the rom with winrar(dont't unzip it) and copy the new file(phone.apk, contacts.apk and mms.apk) in the folder system/app and replace the existing app. Than move the new rom.zip on the sd of the phone and flash it!
u r always welcome sorry coz i forgot the mms.apk .... good that u have it good luck man

[Q] Tutorial for stock rom

hi there. i am wondering if someone can help me and guide me how to **** mine own rom?
at least how to change something basic in rom...like put other launcher , video player...etc. and all ZIP it than flash it via CWM.
i was searching forum for it but... cant find anything ( maybe i missed it ).
btw... it's for Win 7 64 bit. platform.
any way...sry if i am missed some similar post but... ty for any info.
you can change launcher by using 3rd party apps such as 'home switcher'.
y, know that mate. just need someone to explain me how to make all that what i ask and than make flashable zip file.
download a lauchner like GoLauncher.apk open your Rom.zip,dont extract!! only open it,go to the directory system/app,put the golauncher.apk in and delete the LGLauncher.apk ,you can do the same with camera,videoplayer,sms and somethting.
you must have a replacement for the original,thats all.
for optic,first go copy systemUI.apk and framework-res.apk from the open zip to your PC,then go to the xda kitchen,make your style,open the downloaded zip and copy the backed framwork and system apk to Our rom zip,of corse in the right direction;-) and then you flash your own styled rom

You won't be able to do that with a signed apk. It might be possible to replace pngs without unzipping. Try opening the apk as an archive and dragging in the new pngs.
