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?

Anyone know how to edit the user agent in the hex file?
trying to change it to the Nokia N95 user agent
NokiaN95/11.0.026; Series60/3.1 Profile/MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.1
I'm able to pull up the MMS config and see the user agent string but not sure what to do after that

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?

[Q] Can I change the color /theme on just the dialer pad?

Is there a way to change just the contacts and dialer pad to any custome color(love dark blue) on the Eclipse 3 Rom at all?...I have tried ex-dialer but that just adds a dialer.. I want to change to stock dialer..
Thank you
Rich

sorry for typos....I meant custom colors......and... Want to change the stock dialer.
Thank you

hello
no problem, copy your blurdialer.apk from system/app/ to your PC
and open this apk (by winrar) and to change backgroud edit file
go to /res/drawable-hdpi/bg_dialer.jpg
if you need to change dialer number backgroud color
go to /res/drawable-port-hdpi/dialer_background.png
dial numbers are in
/res/drawbale-hdpi-finger/ folder
you make easy edit this files overwrite with old one and, and move back blurdialer.apk when you done to /system/app/ in your droid

Hi Niko..
Thank you soo much!.. I have spent ages trying to do this .. I am a little unclear on some things though... I will put in quotes what I don't quite understand:
1-"open this apk (by winrar)"-- Is that the app winrar?..Like unzip the file then edit the hex numbers? to change the colors?.. I have only done anything remotely closely to that about a year ago..
2-"/bg_dialer.jpg" - what do I edit that with?.. just Notepad? or PaintNet
3-"dialer_background.png"--same question about what do i edit that with and is this just changing hex numbers or actually changing a picture, like changing the colors of pixels? and in that case I guess i need to be very careful to stay in boundaries..like not bleed over a couple pixels?...obviously that would not be a prob if i am just editing hex numbers.. I have never learned code..
4-"you make easy edit this files overwrite with old one and"-- I do not follow this.. I'm sorry...
Thank you again... I don't know why Droid 3 is so difficult to change the contacts list and dialer colors...
Rich

ad1. if you have instaled winrar on your PC you make look in all android applications xxxxxxx.apk and pull out and insert files
ad2. you need to edit by some graphic editor (paintbrush is also ok for that )
ad3. as ad2. you make easy change everything on this picture (but do not change a resolution)
ad4. when you done with editing your images open a orginal APK file with WINRAR and copy there a this new edited images (overwrithe the old one)
and pase edited xxxxxx.apk file to your system/app folder in your Droid 3 phone
sorry for my not easy to understand eng.

Thank you!!.. no problem about eng :good:

Well that was interesting...lol... Thank ** for nandroids...I did not know how to transfer files even with MyPhoneExplorer.. Just kept having probs that I did not know how to fix so I guessed and nope.. I took the dialer.apk..swapped files and put it back...not quite that easily though...and then couldnt even open the dialer nor contacts..I did a backup right before I started playing around.. I need to learn from square one how to do the advanced stuff..
Oh well, One of these days I will look back and laugh that I did not know how to do that...:laugh:
Other phones just had apps that would change the theme of the dialer, but not droid 3 at least not with Eclipse 3 that I have found yet. I love the stability of Eclipse though..

Niko- Would you happen to know anything about editing Go Contacts.apk themes using APK Multi-tool? Thank You!!!:fingers-crossed:

I relize that this is the wrong thread for this, however I HAVE LOOKED EVERYWHERE, I have a LG Optimus Zone 2 with the same problem, I don't have the dialers or backgrounds described, I changed all that I could find: LGUSTelephonyProvider in system/app and LGContacts, LGContactsProviders, and LGTeleService in system/priv-app, have tried different dialer apks, and even Holo themer from the x-repository, Can anyone help?

deleted conversations.apk now can't send sms even after reflashing custom rom

I accidentally deleted the conversations.apk file
even after reinstalling romaur's rom, and getting the apk file back, I can't send sms!
do I need to reflash the stock rom again?

no just add (copy) this Conversation.apk to the system/app/
and restart the phone.
(You can use RootExplorer or any other alternative program)
and please next time be careful with system apps.
Regards
