I'm using my Galaxy note on t-Mobile and I was wondering if anyone found a way to get regular sized pics through mms. So far all my pics are the size of thumbnails. Is there a way to hack the app or settings so that I get the picture the original size. It even compresses the pictures that I send to myself to test it.
Anyone?

On AT&T I get a good sized picture but it is downsized from the full-size pic. It's about half-size.
I know with my Windows 6 phones there were settings you could change to get larger MMS pictures with AT&T. I don't know about T-Mobile.

I don't believe I am on the right thread but just in case. I am looking for a working solution to tiny thumbnail size picture messages MMS on the HTC Inspire or any HTC Android on T-mobile. Has anyone found a working solution to this? Any MMS sent to my phone is extremely small and picture messages has been sent from varying phones including my own. I sent a test pic from my phone to my phone and received a small thumbnail.
I have seen others with this similar problem on T-mobile Androids but have yet to see a confirmed solution. I have seen solutions for non android phones that utilize cab files. Apparently this is fairly common under unlocked non T-mobile phones.
Thanks a million to anyone that has found a fix!!
There is a mms app called chomp that lets you choose mms with bigger size.
dude, its 2011. why bother with crappy mms when you can just email a full 8mp photo in all its glory?
Hi
I'm having problems with the camera.
I bought a Moto x three weeks ago and noticed that sometimes (often), when taking pictures, somo red and blue stripes appear while and after taking the photo. Those stripes appear and desapear. The only way of getting rid of them is to focus the camera for a long time (like 5 or more seconds) and even if they desapear, sometimes they come back
I thouht my phone was damaged so I claimed my warranty and they gave me a new one last thursday but the new one has the same problem.
Is anyone experiencing this problem too?
I'm not sure if it's a general problem or if I should go back and claim the warranty again .
Here is an example of a photo taken on my room with the lights on to a white paper.
I forgot to say that sometimes the stripes are not red and blue. Instead they are gray like in the picture I attached.
Thank you for your suggestions.
Yes. It happens for me when I have a fluorescent light in the room. I tested this on demos at the store and same thing.
So I assume this is a general problem. That makes me feel realy upset with the phone.
I hope some update fix this.
Love the camera on this phone! Am I the only one?
I saw this at the Verizon store on two different Moto X's. I have also seen this on my Nexus 4, but only under some settings in FV5 (never with stock camera app). Guessing it is a software issue but it is definitely a little disconcerting.
For those experiencing the issue, make sure your a squeaky wheel about it to Motorola if you want to see it fixed.

Love may be a strong word here. I think the X can take some really good pics, in the right lighting. But if you are in a low light situation, pics are garbage...lots of noise. The camera is the ONLY reason I miss my Samsung devices, they took really good pics.

this seems like a banding issue to me, which i'm surprised the camera app doesn't include a setting to eliminate. try a different camera app, like camerazoom fx to see if you can correct the problem with software. if it doesnt go away, it may be worth replacing.
I take a lot of pics indoors and they are terrible. No complains about photos taken outside.
I would not care using another app if I could keep the twist to activate thing : /

Anyone else have issues with the camera's ability to focus? I'm not talking about some of the other issues regarding low light performance, or color casts, just straight up is the picture in focus. Since getting the phone a couple months ago I hadn't taken many pics at all and they were always under low light and of stuff I just wanted to remember vs taking a picture to look at so I didn't pay any attention to the quality as most were deleted soon after.
This past weekend I was outside and noticed I could not get an in focus picture no matter what. Daytime outdoor lighting was plenty good to get a high enough shutter speed to avoid blur and I don't have shaky hands. I took a few pics to compare it with a Samsung Galaxy S2 (wife's phone). All pics were taken around the same time, the lens was definately clean and I used the same app on both phones for two of the pics. I took an extra with the stock camera app on the moto x as well. If you check out the set you can easily see the blurring on the windows on the houses across the street. And the close garden fence you can't even see the chicken wire which is totally sharp in the GS2 pic.
Pics are here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/[email protected]/sets/72157641535964283
It looks like I may have a hardware issue. Before I try to send it back anything else to try? Its running 4.4.2 now after starting with 4.2.2, OTA almost right out of the box to 4.4 and recently to 4.4.2. Its the XT1053, GSM Dev Edition. I'm definitely out of the return period since it was bought end of November (at full price too) so it would have to be a warranty repair I'm guessing. Is it possible to get a replacement sent in advance or is the only option to send it in, wait, and be without my phone for probably 2+ weeks?

I can confirm that the focus on the camera is not up to par. Did you use the manual focus setting? Also how steady are your hands?
I get blurry pictures too, I suspect that there was a trade off in the camera. really good resolution/sensor but no digital or optical stabilization feature what so ever. My prediction is based on the fact that those blurry pictures you posted look like the ones on my galaxy S 2 when the stabilization feature is off.
Also any little shakes give my moto x camera some blur which is why I suspect the stabilization is not present or is poorly functioning.
Please if anyone else is having this issue, you don't have to explain but post that you have the issue, android version, model number and if your camera software is up to date! Maybe Motorola will take notice of this thread and offer a really good camera fix in the next update!
p.s. the shutter speed is pretty slow too... comparable to my old galaxy s2 skyrocket
OS: 4.4.2
Model: XT 1053 (T-mobile - Unlocked version) same as developer edition so give us the same warranty Motorola!!
My camera sucks too, I hate the autofocus of the moto x.
But besides that i love everything else.

My hands were not shaking for any of the shots and I did use manual focus.
I added 2 more shots today.
One is a building by my work. The lighting was quite bright and thus the shutter speed was over 1/4000 a second. At that level the effect of minor shaking would be greatly diminished. I can usually hold a camera steady enough to avoid blur down to about 1/40 a second if I am careful so I know its not me.
By comparision I took another shot tonight, inside with much lower light conditions. Its a battery in my hand taken while I hold the phone with the other hand. Shutter speed 1/60 a second and the shot is clear. This shows I can indeed hold it steady enough so hand shake isn't a factor. It also shows that my camera is good with macro shots. but not much else.
I looked around for the reviews I used before purchase and have this one: http://www.anandtech.com/show/7235/moto-x-review/10
The shots shown there from the MotoX show it is capable of focusing fine, at distance, compared with other phones. It may have other issues with odd colors and patterns, but the focus is solid enough.
Based on the review shots and the shots I've posted I do not think the Moto X is simply incapable of focusing as clearly it was able to focus for the review. It looks like my phone may have a defective camera module or somehow be stuck in some kind of macro mode.
Anyone know if I can get an advance replacement or something vs just sending it back and waiting?
In case anyone wonders what happened when I finally did try to get help from Moto the experience is not pleasant. I did wait a bit(still well within warranty and I don't want to be without my phone). I called them on 4/5. 2 calls later, one email though their website and a live chat tonight and I still have not gotten the promised email with return instructions and shipping label.
So, at least if you have a Dev Edition it seems Moto may be unable or unwilling to help you in any reasonable time.
I'll update this when the saga concludes. One initially happy customer getting decidedly less happy.

Sorry for the thread necro, but what happened? Did you get your original phone back, or a replacement?
I have the same problem currently with a Droid Mini, the camera was working fine but one day I noticed the auto-focus was unresponsive. Tried the software solutions but it's no good... No warranty, so I've ordered a replacement camera module and hopefully that will resolve it (bad pun).
Forgive me members for I have sinned... It's been far too long since I popped a SIM in my OnePlus One
I've been using my iPhone 6+ exclusively for months now for a few reasons I'm hoping to have answered here by real-world users. I'm no stranger to Android, but I have fallen in a bad groove with iOS and just settling :/
I use the camera a lot. Not for anything super special, but I'm able to take FAST photos when I need it. Hit the button, and it's saved and done in under a second. Sharp, accurate... but tiny at 8mp on a 1080p screen. I've looked at samples of the Note 5 camera, and the quality is good, but how is the speed of the stock camera app? I don't want to have to wait 2-4 seconds before I can regain use of the camera again, nor have to wait 2 seconds for it to take a photo.
Is the built-in email worth using? I have gmail for my personal email, but my company is stuck on a 2003 exchange server and I'm forced to use a generic "email" client on phones I switch to. I need to be able to set priority on outgoing, and flag/star emails. (Everything else I need should be baked into any email client at this point... BCC, attachments, custom sig) Not a huge deal if it's not good... I can use CloudMagic if needed.
It's been a while since I even gave a Samsung phone a glance, but last time I did, screen-burning was a big issue... Is this still a problem anymore with the newer screens? I'm a fan of auto-brightness, but I input text a lot, and rarely change keyboards. I don't want to find out in a year that my screen has been burned beyond repair
Any help with these would be greatly appreciated. If I like what i'm hearing, I'll be going to T-Mobile this weekend to pick this up!
Thanks all
Hers is a camera speed and quality comparison between the 6s plus and the Note 5, I would say the camera is fast, probably not that fast as iphone but you will get better quality photos with the Note 5
http://www.phonearena.com/reviews/Apple-iPhone-6s-Plus-vs-Samsung-Galaxy-Note5_id4095/page/3
As for emails, you can use the built in email client or download any other from the play store that will do more than you want.
I'm not sure about the screen burning but my guess is that it was more of a concern with the unrealistic and inaccurate Amoled popping colors in the previous generations. The first thing I do is that I switch screen mode to basic as it provides accurate colors and I guess will reduce the probability of screen burning.
Hope it helps.

You'll be happy with a Note 5 honestly. In terms of the camera, I take rapid photos with mine all the time without issues. There's also a double tap home button function that takes maybe 1.5 seconds to pull the camera up and focus from any screen, even when the screen is turned off. My wife loves using my Note 5 for pictures over her LG G4.
Screen burn in hasn't been a thing for quite some time now. There is however, still the issue of shading that occurs on all AMOLED displays when on dark images, or scrolling a dark Web page. I think the Note 5 and S6 do the best to avoid that issue, but it does happen slightly. It's just not as visible.
Auto brightness is awesome on the Note 5 as well. There's an "over bright" function that kicks in automatically when the sun shines directly on the screen, or when you're in a very bright area (outside). It's awesome, and to me, can be a little overkill even in direct sunlight. Lol. It's a great feature though.
No SD like iPhone, but that's not an issue as we have cloud storage for dayz! Microsoft OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox.....it goes on.

I appreciate the detailed reply! As you can see from my phones I currently have, I personally don't care about SD storage, and I haven't had a phone with a removable battery since the Galaxy Nexus so I've learned to deal. I checked out the link that @samitro provided, and the difference of 1.93 to 2.1 seconds is all the change I will be experiencing... So basically, it will be the same as far as I am used to

Depends... I'm jumping to T-Mobile when I get it, but I have a weird process when I root a phone.
Usually I will go 100% lock & stock UNTIL I find something that I just can't stand (bloat, battery, audio) but if I do root, I look for a stock ROM (or just keep the stock one) and modify it on the phone to remedy the issues I find. I haven't owned a Samsung since the Galaxy Nexus (not really a Samsung phone) and what I am reading about KNOX kinda scares me lol. T-Mobile doesn't really have too much junk on their carrier phones, but it is still there, and it still bugs me. I'm kinda worried about battery life, but I have read a lot here about how to save it sans root access.

I like your system. That's the one I use personally as well. I will say that the one thing that will be annoying really quickly is the T-Mobile system app/process adapt.app. It's what they use to root checking or any kind of custom modification of the device. Even when you're not modified though, it'll sit there and pull root access and constantly scan your device, sucking up battery. It's more invasive now on the newest LP build, and on the MM beta that was leaked.
Don't worry about battery on the Note 5. It is surprisingly really good what they were able to pull off on only 3000mAh. You can pretty much freeze most bloat even without root. There's also a thread here for debloating without root using a script that goes undetected.
As far as knox is concerned. Don't root if you plan on using Samsung Pay. Once you modify the kernel, or root the device, the efuse is blown and your knox counter will forever be tripped. Even though you can go back to pure stock, knox will still be tripped and Samsung Pay will never work. There is NO work around.
I love the Note 5. I was skeptical about it because I had a Note 4, but I am glad I got it. It is an upgrade for me over the Note 4. I'll say the one thing I don't like about the Note 5, is that it's not very hand friendly at night when you're on the phone laying in bed, lol.
Awesome camera, fast, no lag... But, full of bloat, unknown battery drain, less settings about some properties!
worth to upgrade?
From Note 2 - No
From Note 3 - Buy a note 2!
From note 4 - Wait for note 6!
From iphone- At least i can flash custom rom and kernel! but it is not an upgrade huh??!

Yeah, Marshmallow is nice. I got the OTA from Google for my Nexus 5 and I really enjoyed it. Hopefully Samsung will be open to using a lot of the features already present instead of baking them out.

Is this the same whether you're on WI-FI,or a data connection?
Perhaps the resolution depends on which VZW Data plan you're on &/or,if your high-speed cap has been reached for the billing period?
IDK if the different resolutions on the various data plans apply to video chat clients,just tossin' around the possibilities..........

Yes, no matter if on wifi or cellular. Video viewed on my note 9 is amazing.. Thinking it had to do with some kind of bs compression that vzw applies... Photos on the other hand are crystal clear.
Just really frustrating to have a 1200.00 phone that I can't share HD video with anyone else.
I've even lowered the quality below HD and it still pixelates and looks like garbage

Not knowing which app you're using,but,it sounds app-related,perhaps it has to do with a size limitation on the chat client & video quality is affected.
Just taking guesses here,hoping someone will chime in with a solid explanation.
I'm assuming you are sending them an MMS - if so, they will always look crappy!
If you had an iPhone before as well, you would have been using iMessage. That system will allow much higher quality images than an MMS will, but obviously it's limited to iOS.
For Android, you'd have to use something like WhatsApp or similar (and have your friends use it too)

has nothing to do with the phone. just share videos via links. you could be on a google,one plus...etc and it would all be the same.
id be tempted to tell you to sell your phone for thinking its a device issue since it makes as much sense than thinking it was a phone problem....lol
just use samsung link sharing when you open the video, then press the share icon.
but you should definitely return the phone :cyclops:

Are you talking about SMS? If so, it pretty much compresses your video to a 10 mb file. As you can imagine, that would give you about 1 second of HD video. Any more than that, compression kicks in. The longer the video, the heavier the compression/loss of resolution. SMS is a technology from 20 years ago, it was never meant for this. They pushed it to being able to send decent quality photos, and that's about as good as you're going to get. Apple's iMessage does not use sms for iphone to iphone texting, so it may avoid the compression issue, I'm not sure. And carriers are doing away with SMS, and moving to RCS, which may help this as well.
Point is, if you are sending video over SMS, don't. The issue you are talking about has nothing to do with your phone or any phone. It has to do with limitations of SMS.

I completely understand it's a network compression issue with vzw, and not a device issue.
I love my phone but I need to have a native way to send hd videos... So either way, selling it might be the solution.
The problem that I have is that I would have to convince my bosses to use the new app, as I use my phone to document structural issues and send them to their respective management reps.
This will be nothing short of a miracle.
Why would vzw sell a Ferrari of a device, but only let it in the granny lane capabilities wise

SMS is SMS, has nothing to do with Verizon. It's not a network compression issue, its the limitation of the SMS protocol itself. You get high speed LTE with verizon, right? Verizon does not limit you from using your LTE connection for Whatsapp for example. You choose to use SMS, therefore you have to play by the rules of SMS. Again, this has nothing to do with the carrier. To further expand your analogy, that's like you buying a Ferrari and never taking it outside the confines of New York City. Your car can hit 200 mph, but you're crawling along at 10 mph. If your job requires you to send HD video to iphones and you know that iphone to iphone there is no issue, and you can't use any other app besides text apps, you probably have no choice but to get an iphone. Perhaps this will resolve when Verizon finally activates RCS messaging instead of SMS, as Tmobile is starting to do, but knowing Verizon, you'll be waiting a while. And I don't know that RCS will solve your problem, you'll have to look into it's limitations and when Verizon will actually enable it.

SMS is SMS, has nothing to do with Verizon. It's not a network compression issue, its the limitation of the SMS protocol itself. You get high speed LTE with verizon, right? Verizon does not limit you from using your LTE connection for Whatsapp for example. You choose to use SMS, therefore you have to play by the rules of SMS. Again, this has nothing to do with the carrier. To further expand your analogy, that's like you buying a Ferrari and never taking it outside the confines of New York City. Your car can hit 200 mph, but you're crawling along at 10 mph.

samsung link sharing to the rescue. yeah its 2 steps more than just adding a file to a text but it sure gets the job done quickly. guess g drive or onedrive can basically do the same thing.

I got to start using that more often. I remember using Samsung link sharing on my S7 edge. But since almost forgot about it.

Samsung Galaxy note 9 for best full screen video watching experience
Everyone i have found that the note 9 video watching experience in full screen mode is crappy and i have also found an solution for that
Step 1 is to turn on color adjustment and select personalized color option and complete the table.
This will make the washed away red colors in your full screen mode the way you see the color in any other mode
Step 2 is enable the developer options an turn on disable hardware overlay,
This will make the low light quality of the full screen mode 10 times better when watching video
Also applies for the gallery
Thats all hope this was useful for those of you whom watch video on full screen mode and have bad video quality and colors on Samsung phones,.
Thank you, the solution is great, I think it will work great.
It can be an Apple problem as most videos from diferent androids look crap on my iphone , even though the video is sharp on my macbook pro , could be anoyher ios 13 bug as there are alot still not fixed, iphone owners these days seem to be only beta testers for apple , something you dont expect with a 1500 phone ( yes i have both iphone 11 pro and note 9 and 10+ also an old nexus 6 )
