Anyone else experience this?? How'd ya fix it.

Handcent

Has anyone else had a problem with handcent where it starts off handling mms fine, then it suddenly stops showing them unless you start a new text with someone who had sent an mms - it will show up there but after you hit send you can no longer see that message again...till you start a new text....weird...

I noticed the same thing with certain contacts (not all) for SMS (I don't receive many/any MMS typically) using Handcent. I could only see if someone replied by attempting to compose another text to them, as the convo did not show up in the conversation list. I thought it had something to do with flashing the CM6 nightly on 9/7/10, as that is when the problem seemed to begin.
I ended up uninstallling Handcent and reinstalling (yeah, a PITA to re-create all my settings). It seems to have fixed the issues I had but again, I haven't tried MMS in several days.
I think I am ready to give up on it...I liked it solely because you can stop your texts from scrolling on the task bar...from what I can tell, neither stock or chomp can do that...

only problems i have been having is if i send Mms to somebody without a android phone they only get a error message of somesort.
Hand cent works perfectly for me. I had one little hiccup, but it wasn't hand cent. Mms quit working completely. Just had to go to /data/data/com.telephony.blah blah and erase telephony.db then reboot and instant fix.

The same thing happened to me a few times. I went into app > manage applications > handcent SMS > clear data.
Its sucks because you loose you custom colors setup (if you have them) but everything pops back up

handcent makes mms look bad

The only issue I'm having is that when I send a MMS to my friends using handcent, they look terrible, like i took the picture through a screen. I never used to have this issue, is this ROM related, or what?
Im running DAS BAMF 1.6 with the bamf kernel
thanks in advance for the help
You could uncheck the box that makes handcent auto resize the picture to see if that helps.
It's somewhere in the send settings if I remember right.

i'm on 1.6 and using handcent, i have had no complaints on the pictures looking odd in any way. i have had issues where it doesnt display the picture when i receive a mms and i have to save it to sdcard to view it, that isn't that huge of a inconvience though.

[Q] Pictures are blurry when received through MMS

Droid 4 with Jelly Bean. Flashed to ntelos. All of the pictures I receive through mms are blurry. I have tried in Go sms, and I have also tried in the stock messaging app. I cannot seem to find a setting to fix this. The pictures I send are fine. Just the pictures I receive are effected. Anyone know how to fix this?

[Q] HELP! Messaging is broken

So I somehow borked messaging on my phone. Only it's deeper than that. Let's rewind a bit, shall we?
So about a week and a half ago, I started experimenting with different popup programs for SMS/MMS messages, since I'm not a big fan of how laggy chat heads can be with FB Messenger. I went through app after app comparing features until I settled on Glowfly. Everything seemed to be working fine until my sister tried to message me and my parents. It looked to me like she had just messaged me individually, and when I tried to send out a new group message with them all in it, I noticed it sent separate SMS messages to each person instead of a group MMS. And they didn't receive as a group message; it was all individual messages to them too. My first reaction was to uninstall Glowfly, but the damage was done. No matter what I've tried, this issue is persisting. I don't know if something messed up MMS settings on the network for me, or what, but even wiping and doing a clean install of roms (both stock and Sense) have the exact same issue, even if I don't restore anything with TIBU or install anything at all. The only thing I can think is that maybe it's pulling wrong MMS settings from Google, or it's something on the network acting screwy, but no one else is having this issue. Oh, and here's the weirdest part: I can still get MMS messages with pictures. So MMS is not flat-out broken. I just don't understand how it can persist through wipes and clean installs. Anyway, does anyone have any idea what could be happening?
Its not MMS, its not an included feature in 4.1, it got added in 4.2. Try Textra. Its in the play store. Has popups and group messaging built in. Super clean and stable texting app. My wife and mom have been using it on their firsts, and have had no issues at all. Hope that helps.

Mms photos pixilated

When I send photos using the stock messaging app or handcent the photos a very compressed and look terrible on the receiving end. Anyone experience this and is there a fix?

Try using Hangouts.

Thanks for the input, but sorry not an option for me, hangouts is trash imo. Really would rather handcent or stock mms. To ask again, any else experience very compressed almost pixilated photos when sending mms?
Any other suggestions, like a build.prop edit or something?
Go Pro SMS has some specific options for Multimedia MMS settings, and if you attach an image it prompts for conversion and sizes. I can't find the same things for the default Messages app.
There are some tweaks available via the XPosed Framework, too like blocking SMS to MMS messages
*** Correction I'm running the Unity ROM and I'm no longer prompted for the MMS image conversion and it's a very big compression.
