How do you save a photo in the HTC Mail app - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This might sound daft but I'm at a loss. I got an email with a photo on it. The photo shows inline in the email and not as a separate attachment. I need to save the photo but pressing on it does nothing.
Any ideas?

I just tested this. It appears there is no way to save it. Tapping and holding does nothing and there are no options anywhere to save attachments. I think if it's in-line, you're screwed. I have seen this on other devices. They basically treat it like HTML.

Crazy.
Time to log this with HTC. Basically an email from an iPad and I assume iPhone will create this problem.

Unable to attach file or picture in email

All of a sudden I am unable to attach a file or picture in an email. When I create a new email and select insert and then picture, I am able to view all the pictures, photos I have on either the phone or SD card memeory. I then select one and I am brought back to the email but there is no attachment added. If i then goto Pictures and Videos, and click on a picture and select send nothing happens.
However I am able to send pictures, photos via MMS. Does anyone know why I cant email pictures, files, or photos? I have the default radio and software on my tilt. Thanks.
Anyone?

Simply put there are too many problems with this phone, its not worth to heavily mod it just to be able to use simple features like sending a picture text.
I am already looking for a new treo, this is the worst phone i have ever used in my life.
Once i get my new treo i will smash this HTC with a bat and post on youtube.
I hate this phone with more than a severe passion.

Gmail not sending e-mails with attachments

When I try to send a photo by selecting share and then using Gmail, it just gets saved as a draft, but never goes out. Also, only the photo gets saved, but not the recipient's e-mail or body text.
Did anyone run into this problem and know how to solve it?

No, but there is a free app on the market called attach email, you can send anything your heart feels with this one, and still use your gmail acct. as the sender address
It's a nice app, but it does not solve my problem. My problem is that when I attach the image and send it, the e-mail gets saved as a draft rather than sent out.
I did a little more testing at is seems to only happen on 3G - doesn't happen on WiFi :-/

[Q] How to change image of the incoming call?

When a call comes in, you get the green android fellow show up and when the call is picked up, same guy stays there. How do I get to change this image? I know I can edit a picture for a contact but it is a pain to do this for several contacts in the phone. I tried to edit google contacts but there also there isnt a way to do a bulk update. Any pointers?
If you want contact pictures, you can do Facebook sync.

Anything other than this suggestion? The background should be an image file located within a system folder. Right? If we replace that file with something that we want, then anytime a call comes in, we will get the picture of our choice rather than the green android guy. Is that not doable at all?

Peculiar Quirks

I'm currently using a T-Mobile Note 5. Previous device was Note 4. So far, I like the phone, (N4 performance was disappointing) but there are a few quirks that I have yet to find a way to circumvent. Like anything, I'm sure there's value to someone for this stuff, just not for me.
1. When sharing an image from a gallery, it prompts me to either send to an Existing Contact or new contact. So they make the first app chosen when opening a new file or link the default app automatically (one of the quirks I don't necessarily prefer, but I can live with), but then add this?
2. Caller ID contact images for incoming and outgoing calls are tiny. I've reuploaded high res images to the contact and opened the contact locally to ensure the image was loaded and cached (so it didn't just display the small image with the blurry background) and still tiny. Both making and receiving calls.
3. If i"m doing something, incoming calls show up as a pop up card with a double ended arrow to expand it. I can live with it, but i'd prefer full screen.Any way to change that default behavior?
4. When in the messenger, tapping the paperclip to select an image attach from your gallery automatically sends the message. You can only select "Send", there is no attach option. Composing text before attaching does nothing and the picture is sent and your text stays in the text box.
I was able to solve the issue of disabling screen mirroring, and no way to keep capacitive touch buttons illuminated with the installation of a few light-weight apps that reenabled the options, but I have been unsuccessful finding anything about the four things I mentioned above.

I do not have the t-mobile version so I do not know what the difference would be but my attachment button works on the stock app.
I'm able to attach files fine, it's just the behavior when I attach them. Using the attached screenshots, I'll start out in a message and I'll tap my paperclip.
After tapping the paperclip, I'll be presented with the attach menu which as my recent photos and then the other options.
Upon selecting an option, there is only one button and that is send in the top right. If I push Send, it sends the picture. If I have text in the message field, it will NOT attach the picture so the image and text go as one message. My text stays untouched in draft and it sends just the picture.
That is weird. After I select a file I have a done button where your send button is. I wonder if it has something to with the advanced messaging for t-mobile.
All I can do is picture the Dr. Evil meme with "Advanced Messaging" in quotes...
I'll see if I can find a non-updated N5 and test the behavior. When I get a new phone I do all the OS updates first, and a fresh factory wipe so I didn't even bother looking to see what was contained in the update.
I could do without the video calling button monopolizing the entire send key area since I'll never use it...
I had to go so far as to check if Easy Mode was set up... Nice job Apple Samsung.
Either way thanks for the heads up. I was out of the loop and didn't even know about the advanced messaging and that sounds like a viable lead.
Just to close the loop on this in case someone else stumbles across it. Disabling VoLTE in the call settings "fixes" #1 and #4.
Thanks to bryyyan, which is where I first learned about this.

Firefox set image as to Contacts. Bug, or not smart enough?

So earlier today I was attempting to grab an online photo of someone to associate with a contact so I don't accidentally reject the call (I tend to just let people I don't know go to voice mail). So I looked up the number with Firefox/duckduckgo, found the photo I wanted, did a press/hold and the menu pops up. Select 'Set image as' and then selected Contacts.
Contacts then crashes (I tried it twice, with the same result, except the second time it asked to close app or send feedback, vs restart app and send feedback.)
So is this a bug? Or is it me thinking the phone should be smarter than that? I mean is Contacts thinking I'm opening it AS a Contact? And since all it sees is a jpg, it crashes?
This seems like it'd be good functionality. now I wonder if Bixby would look up a photo and put it into a contact for me....
