I just got a pic from a buddy and when i try to open the conversation it force closes texting. i delete the whole thread and it happens again when he sends a pic. it works fine when just texting. i sent a text pic to myself, worked fine. send a text pic from wifes phone to mine, works fine. can send fine to him but he sends to me crashes my texting.
weird !!!!!! and...... WHY?
Maybe he has a virus in his phone or something? He posted the pic to facebook and it showed up fine...

I have always had slow picture mail on Sprint, it always took several hours to days before the picture mail was received by friends, yet when they sent stuff to me it only ever took a few minutes. I tried updates, patches, changes, etc.. with no results.
A day or so ago I updated to the newer HTC rom (2.01.651.6), and then installed the Gen.Y Manilla R1.5 VGA Cab along with several other tweaks, etc.. that all went well and then I was testing stuff to make sure everything worked.. This is the odd part, when I first sent a test picture, it went through very quickly (and mind you, this is sprint to at&t, not sprint to sprint).. I figured it was a fluke and then took a quick pic, and sent it.. this time 5 minutes passed and nothing, so I sent the same picture again with different wording and it somehow arrived quickly again.. within 30 seconds of sending it..
Now, backtracking, the first time I sent the picture. I went into the picture mail tab, and did new mail.. entered the name, attached some media, etc and sent it... this resulted in a really quick send..
The second one, I was in the album part, selected an image, and selected the mail / picture mail option.. selected the name and wrote a quick note and sent it.. this resulted in a slow mail...
Figuring it was a fluke, or something else, I went into the picture mail tab and did new message, entered the name, attached the exact same image (but manually), wrote something different, and sent it... it was received in less than 30 seconds, and the previous one arrived over 20 minutes after..
Further tests I have done replicate this each time, I have no idea how this is even possible, or what difference it would make sending it through the albums mail link or the picture mail tab instead.. I have tested this with various carriers, various pictures, etc and have the same results each time.
If anyone else is on Sprint with a touch pro and sees it's slow, out of curiosity.. how are you sending the picture mail? If you've been sending it via the album, perhaps try using the picture mail tab, new message, etc instead.. and see if it's quicker.
I apologize if this has already been posted, or is known, has been tried by everyone, or such.. I only found out about this today and figured I'd post it in the event it may actually help some others out there having the same problem as me. For all I know this is a glitch with how my own phone is setup, soo... *shrug*
I found that if you pull up the menu while viewing a photo and select options, you can change the resolution for sending pics to medium(320x240). It states it's only when sending emails, but it changes when using mms as well. As soon as I changed the setting my messages only take a minute or two to be received. Where as before I had the same problem you described. Hope this helps!
I've tried that as well, but it always bugged me how friends of mine could send larger pictures without an issue while mine would barely manage to send a small picture. Currently, I am able to send 1M (1280x960 with fine quality selected) sizes taken from the camera as long as I attach the media myself via the mail tab.
I'm still tempted to try the next size up just to see if that's quick as well but at this point I don't want to jinx it while it seems to be working great even for 1280x960 images.
on the new rom you need to run the pic mail remover first cause it has the pic mail in it. Then you can install Arcsoft after that with no problems.
i gave up on pic mail
same thing was happening to me. so i just gave up on it. i mean i still recieve pictures but in stead of using my pic to send i use my emails.
and use it to send pics straight to that persons phone
i use their carrier email like for ex for sprint its
(number) @pm.sprint.com
and its worked perfectly for me they get it just like a pic mail so much faster. just click send and move on to another program
makes me happy :0)
Every time I receive an MMS, a new message thread is created with "Online Album" as the recipient. When opening the thread, all I see is the text "Message not found".
Is there a way to disable this? I have no idea what made it start happening, but it's annoying to have to delete this thread every single time I get an MMS from someone.
anyone have any idea? I'm sorry it's just something I'm at my wit's end with.
I don't know how to fix this but I can tell you that it happened to me today. I was testing sending a picture to myself from computer to phone and got the message. I then took same picture and decreased the size/resolution and then had no problem, straight to phone. So it has something to do with message/picture size restrictions. Where is this on line album???!
This happens to me almost every time I get an MMS. And the contact info is always one of my contacts and never the same person, however it says "To Online Album"
Is there a copy of my MMS messages on the internet somewhere? If so, cool. However I would like to know where it is.
I get this from time to time when my wife sends me pics from her 3gs... i think it probably does have to. Do with the size

Currently using Handcent as my messaging app (but have also verified this in the stock messaging app). Whenever I get longer type of texts from my friends (most using iphones) it shows as a MMS message.
Is there a setting I may have missed to stop this? It's getting really annoying.
Also, is there a way to disable that stupid slideshow when someone sends more than 1 picture in a text?
I text back and forth with my wife all the time... She has an iPhone 4S. I have never had any of her texts arrive as MMS unless they were that. I still use the stock app and running on the stock ROM unrooted. You said you verified this on the stock app, but was that ever before installing the Handcent app or only after?
As far as the stupid slideshow issue... I hate it too... Even if it's only 1 single solitary picture it will play the slideshow... Stupid... Not sure why, but I can't help with that.
Should be normal......... depending on how much you're typing. If you pass the length of 3 text messages, it automatically gets turned into mms to be able to send all of it in one go.
If you're typing less than 3 text messages worth and it still gets sent as an mms, you have a problem.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA App
I have the Evo 3D, if that matters. Whenever I get an MMS picture message, my phone is almost
completely locked up when I'm viewing my main messages list screen. I've tried using different SMS apps
like GoSMS, and Handcent, and nothing helps. Basically, someone sends me a picture, and if I click on
it, it takes about 10 seconds before the message even opens. Then, I see a thumbnail of the pic, but I
can't even type a text to reply because it's so locked up. I have to hit Home, then go back to my
messages, then delete the thread with the picture in it so that I can send a text again. I've searched
like crazy, for hours, looking for a solution and nothing has worked. Please, somebody give me some
kind of suggestion maybe I haven't tried yet!
I updated to andriod 7.0 and can no longer send picture messages.
It's odd, everything else works perfectly and I can receive picture messages. I just cannot send them to anyone.
This happens no matter what messaging app I use. Regular texts and emojis work fine.
It is the phone, I put my sim in an old iphone and it sent a picture message.
