Everytime I try to send a video via text message it says the size is to big even if the video is a second long. Anyone else have this problem?!
As long as the video is smaller then 600kb (att Max size) you should be ok
When I record two seconds of video it surpasses 600k... Am I missing something here? I should be able to send a video text... My friend has AT&T and is able to.
Are you recording in 720p? That will make the video larger
Nope. Even then shouldn't we be able to send videos? Can someone record a 10 second video ans text it to a friebd to confirm that it's not just me.

Confirmed you are not the only one. I just took a 10 second video, a 10 second mms video, and a 1 second mms video. Phone would not let me send any of them due to size limit exceeded. Have been able to do it plenty of times in the past though so it may be related to CM7. Not sure though. Hope it gets figured out.
Weird.....the 10 second mms video file is only 358kb but the 1 second mms video file shows that it is 420kb. Regardless, I tried just now to send from file explorer instead of gallery and size limit reached on each one.....would not send.
Hmn... Paying for sms/mms texting and I can't even send a 5 second video... Wow.
If I recall video messaging is something att charges extra for. Ill find out
I have sent them before....all ok as long as it was under 600k. I believe it is included in data package.
So that's still odd we can't send one even if it's under 600k.
Is anyone else having this issue?
I just tested. I had no problem. I did use freshly captured video, not pre recorded.
Update:
Tried with pre recorded video. Still no problems.

@enforcer
What setup are you running.
I am on CM7 - 5/19 build.
I haven't seen anything in cm7 dev or q&a thread about this. Just want to know if I can rule out if it is rom related our not.
Mosaic III Diet
xcals Kernel I think
JK4
I believe I had this issue on Firefly as well a few months back.
At least we can rule out rom specific issue

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.
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.
clean or wipe off the lense?

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
Anyone get Tango to work? I tried to install from maket. It downloads fine and then errors on install. Been trying to find an app that works between this tablet and a computer. Any one have any ideas if this one doesn't work? We already got screwed on the Skype beta front.
If I didn't see the potential in the hardware of the grab, I'd return it. So far, VS has really dropped the ball. Stock has no flash or video conferencing. Both on the box.. lol I'll stick it out and hope for the best I guess.
I've had no luck finding a usable video chat app. There's a separate thread for this.
I've tried multiple apps but none have worked...
Yahoo messenger w/ video chat works on mine running Vegan beta 3, but the webcam shows up sideways
I got Tango to work on mine, but its sideways.

Im running vegan b4 and i did a titanium backup on my increddible and then put the backup on my gtab, just apps and app data not system. Ike i said it works but the video of yourself is sideways ut besides that works great.
I mentioned in a previous thread, video calling works better with the gsensor fix. Video chat works fine with yahoo messenger atleast, and is not sideways like it was before the gsensor fix. Maybe it works better with tango.
just tried tango on my droid works awesome never knew much of the app, will give it a shot on my g tablet when i get home its running vegan beta 5 will post if it works.
Tango from titanium
Just a quick side note. If you plan on pulling it from Titanium you wont find it by searching 'Tango', you need to look for the 3 'sgiggle' files to move and restore.
I have it on my tab now but am not in a place to test. I got it to dial out, it was still sideways and died pretty quickly. I'm not too familiar with it so I'm sure it's an error on my part but I'll keep plugging away.
I can confirm Yahoo messanger with the video chat plugin works on VEGAn beta 5 orientation is fine thanks to the gsensor fix. I finally got a chance to test with someone. I don't know if it was just me or not since I only tried once, but after a minute or two I got errors but was able to hit wait and it kept going fine. Eventually I was unable to bring up menus to even exit the chat. Not even to my home screen. Had to reboot to get out of it.
Its a working option for the time being and works from android to computers. So, great option if the closing issues can be fixed.
a lot of people say they got tango to work with video showing sideways.. i see that on my screen but the person i am tangoing with just sees a blank screen... and when i hit the switch camera button it just alerts them that i am switching cameras and stays there..

I installed mine from the apk from my droid popped it in dropbox and than installed it that way, installed fine just cuts out when i try pulling up the video feed.
I've installed CM7 (nightly-5) with latests gapps (gapps-gb-20110503-signed.zip) but can't make the video talk work.
I've the video icon for me and for the contacts with google talk installed in PCs, but in either way (him calling me or me calling) it is stucked to 'calling', without any hint on the other side of being called.
Does anyone tested it and experienced the same behavior? Seems to work on nexus S according to youtube videos...

Hello guys, I'm very desperate to find a solution to my problem, which is that when I record a video (with the stock camera) and try to send it through whatsapp it later kind of converts itself in a slow motion video (I DON´T HAVE IDEA HOW THE F* IT DOES THAT). If I watch the video recorded with the stock camera on the gallery it looks normal, nothing weird, but after I send it to someone through whatsapp the video now has bad audio synchronization and the movements look like if it was a slowmo video.
I've already tried uninstalling, previous versions of whatsapp, tried installing the most recent versions of it downloaded directly from their official web page, I even unrooted my phone reinstalled my official rom which is PL10 - B839 (Emui 3.1 - Lollipop 5.1.1), I did the factory reset...but nothing have fixed this utterly annoying problem. I don't know what else I can try, please help me guys!!!
You didn't need to do all that. WhatsApp has limit on file size you can send and it changes the framerate when you try sending a big file size video. The best way around this is to lower the quality of the video recording in camera settings.
Hi @HowlingSoul, did you get a solution for this? My wife has it on her phone (Huawei) as well. I can't get rid of it! Uninstalled / Reinstalled Whatsapp, cleared phone storage, reset full phone including full format but to no avail.
@sarcastical; it's not that at all. It happens with short videos, long videos etc etc. The sound is still in actual "rate" so to say. Lowering the camera settings has 0 impact.

No, I haven't found a solution for this problem and WhatsApp still doesn't give me a reply for my email explaining it. Maybe you can also send an email to them to this address [email protected]. If you have rooted your devices I recommend unrooting them and testing if the problem goes away (in my case it didn't, I just rooted my phone to change the font style). I had to send the email directly from Gmail because when I sent it through WhatsApp - Contact Us they saw that I had root in my device and just ignored my email. Please keep sharing everything related to this so we can find a solution.

Hmm that's very strange, send an email to them too to [email protected] I hadn't had this problem.
Sorry was gone for a bit ...
It all of a sudden worked for 1 day! I got a nice video of my kid in actual motion. Of course I hadn't changed anything. But then the next day all back to slow motion again ... I will send them an email. My phone is unrooted.

Hi guys!! I have good news, with the new update (2.16.107) the video problem is gone! now I can normally record a video (even a 1080p video) and send it through WhatsApp and it will look normal and the audio is now properly synchronized too! Please, tell me if the update works for you too.
They didn't answer my email though.

Hi guys! Well.....this issue exists as of today with the P9 Plus! Also there are issues with Snapchat too, where the camera auto zooms and other sound issues. Why does Huawei keeps having these odd camera issues with the most popular apps! We just hope they fix it with an update soon....maybe never!
