Yup And Sometimes One Picture Will Show For All The Picture Messages I've Gotten But When Opened The True Picture Shows. Very Strange. It's F-ed.

I've never had either of the problems you both have described. I'm not rooted, haven't done much modding or anything other than installing LPP--not sure why that would matter, though.

3rd party Gallery share no MMS?

Had my Tbolt (and I'm not rooted) a few weeks now and unhappy that the stock HTC Gallery doesn't let you share an image to MMS while the image is full screen. So I've been trying a few different gallery apps. While they seem to have much better share options, so far none of them include MMS. I've tried Fish Bowl Photo, Gallery 3D and Smart Gallery.
Is there a way to add Message (MMS) to the list of share options?
Never had this issue with my DInc and sad/suprised this is a problem on the Tbolt.
Tap the screen when the image is there, hit the double arrows button in the middle and choose messages.

LOL, awesome. I guess I was assuming it would have been the normal intuitive Menu button. I would have never figured that out accept by accident. Many, many thanks.

ADW EX, text messaging loading troubles

I just switched to ADW ex and I love it... no lag, nice features, however when I get a text message and press the messaging icon sometimes I have to press it 2 or 3 times before anything happens. This is not an issue of the screen not registering a press since the icon lights up when I press it, but nothing else happens after that about 1 out of 10 times.
Also, even though its checked in the options, I get no little red "1" on the icon when I have an unread text. Not sure if others are seeing these issues on the note.

are you talking about the message icon on your dock or homescreen?
Make sure there is an app associated with the icon. If the icon is on your dock....double tap the icon and go to edit. If it is on your homescreen, long press icon and then go to edit.
On the pop up make sure there is a program associated with the icon...like mine says GO SMS Pro in the gray box next to the icon. If there is nothing, then you have no app there. So then just tap the gray box and choose applications and then your messaging app.
make sense?

I was having this same problem, delete your messaging shortcut and recreate it, it seemed to fix the issue for me.

No need to delete. Just long press edit and assign application. You can even change the icon.

Yes you do need to delete. When editing it it shows the right information, but doesnt work, recreating it seems to make it work correctly, atleast for me.
I tried editing it like you said first, it was correct. But i'm a noob so maybe i wasnt looking at it right

OK, as long as it worked good for you that's what counts
welp, good call on delete and recreate. that worked great.
It was just really strange how it would work only part of the time. now its 100%.

Issues with Font Size in Mail and Messaging Apps

Does anyone else have problems with the font size in the mail and messaging apps? No matter what I set the fonts to in the e-mail app they always display as extra large. Well, almost always. Once or twice they did display as small, which is what I have selected, but almost instantly reverted to extra large. Going to settings still shows "small" is selected. Same issue with Messaging. Font size is set to small, but the fonts are still displayed as normal or large. Every now and then they will display as small for a couple of hours and then mysteriously go back to large.
I remember seeing some similar issues with the One X when it was released on AT&T, but I don't see that anyone is talking about it anymore. And I don't see that anyone has really mentioned it with the EvoLTE. Is there some fix that I am missing? Or this just not happening for everyone else? It makes e-mails almost unreadable at times for me. I tried using the stock ICS email app, but don't really care for that since it seems to lack the peak/non-peak sync options and was not displaying the unread message count on the app icon.
Any help would be appreciated. I know custom ROM's are on their way but for now I would like a way to make this work with the stock HTC mail app. Possible?
Take two fingers in the app one in one corner and the other adjacent usually bottom right n top left and move them closer should zoom in and out it has happened to me before n I was like wth

Can't zoom out. Can zoom in further, however that is pointless as things are already too big. Screen shots attached.
Interesting...
I am thinking about ruu'ing back to stock and seeing if that makes a difference. I have previously tried a factory reset with no luck, but maybe flashing it will help. Probably not, don't know what else to try. I know two other people with this phone that both have the same problem. Odd that no else seems to have this issue.
I just switched my font size in SMS. Will report back if it reverts.

my brothers evo is having this problem
Man I'm having the same issue! I guess few ppl are experiencing this issue. Anyway, I'll post my issues below...
I want to make sure I'm not crazy...
I have 2 questions about email:
1) My font size appears to be too large. I've tried adjusting it to the smallest font, but that's still too large. I can't seem to reduce the page (font size - by pinching like I could on my OG EVO). I can only read most emails in landscape mode. With my OG EVO, I could adjust the page, just like I could adjust a page (size) on the internet. I've only been able to read emails in landscape... Is anyone else experiencing this issue? If so, were you able to fix it? FYI - I have three email accounts setup (Gmail, Hotmail, & Y mail), and it happens in all of them.
2) I cannot toggle back and forth to the next or previous email while I'm reading an email. I could do this while I was reading an email with my OG EVO, as there were up and down arrows at the bottom of the screen. This seems really dumb. Has anyone figured this out? Am I missing something? I can't swipe anywhere in the email to send me to the next or previous email (just in case you were going to ask). This happens with all of my email accounts.
Just by chance did you make sure the font size under settings/display is also small? There is a global setting there as well.

This is really stupid. You have to hit the menu button and then choose previous/next EACH TIME. Where the hell did the up and down buttons go? WTF HTC? Speaking of issues with the mail app, did they remove the option to automatically display pictures in emails? There was a check box on my OG Evo and it is nowhere to be found in the LTE's mail app.
I'm having this same issue (large font in Mail app). Phone is completely stock. It's REALLY annoying.
Same issue. No matter how many preview lines I choose! It shows 2. Can't reduce to 1. And text is huge, no matter what setting. Slayer, no, haven't tried the global setting, but honestly dont wanna change the global setting, just the email setting. I'm sure a SW update will fix it. I'm not stressed about it.
sent from my Evo LTE, usually.
Yep, same thing I'm experiencing too. Can make the font bigger, but not smaller. This clearly has to be a bug. Hope they fix it soon...

Tried that, but it didn't work. Didn't seem to impact the email font size at all. It made my internet font size smaller, but I didn't need that changed.
Sent from my EVO using XDA
I'm just dumbfounded at all this... No, I didn't see the option (display pictures) in the general settings, only in each email. The lack of back/forth arrows just makes no sense to let at all. Wonder who they consulted about these email changes?!
Sent from my EVO using XDA
I guess no one has figured this out yet... I almost forgot about this, but stumbled upon this today while in the forum. I figure we'll all just have to deal with it until HTC sends out an update?!
I've been having this problem too (I'm completely stock), but mine changes from time to time. I have my font sizes set on the smallest possible and usually that means that they're still kind of big. But occasionally I'll load up the text messaging app and get ridiculously tiny text. "Zooming in" makes it bigger, but not nearly as big as the fonts get normally. And then, the next time I load up the app the font sizes are MASSIVE.
It's almost like my phone has two sets of font sizes, one smaller than the other but both using the same nomenclature ("small", "normal", etc.), and switches between them when it wants to. Mildly annoying, but annoying nonetheless.
Interesting, I've had the same font size issue in the stock Mail app. There is an option in Settings > Sync, Send & Receive to view messages as either HTML or plain text.
I wonder if the difference is the way the email is formatted by the sender, if they use HTML vs plain text, if that is what affects the way this device displays the message contents.
Just a thought.

This is definitely the case - I've noticed that this happens ONLY when one of the emails in the thread was sent as plain text.

That's not the case for me. I actually notice it more in the Messaging app than the Mail app.

Problem?

I'm using the Evo 4G LTE if that's necessary information or not... Lately for some reason, every time I close out an app and then re-enter it, it loads back up to where I last was or last thing done rather than the main page. For example, open facebook app, it takes me directly to the last notification I looked at rather to my newsfeed and it will continue to take me to that notification when opening the program until I look at another notification. With instagram, it takes me to the image upload screen, the one where you crop the image before uploading it; all the time. It gets annoying having to navigate back to the main page. Anyone know what's up?
Umm. It's multitasking...
Sent from my One X
How is that multi-tasking by, for instagram's example, sending me to the upload page of a picture that i've already uploaded? At that point I shouldn't be brought to that page again with the same photo after I've already cropped and uploaded it.
It's going to open up where you left off - that way you can, say, start writing a post with tapatalk, go respond to an SMS, then go back to writing your post without losing your progress.
Instagram is one app, it's going to behave how it's designed to behave. I would assume it's taking you back to that page because it can't really take you to the post-upload page. So it just goes to the point nearest where you left off... but I don't use instagram, so that's just speculation.
Sent from my One X
Your explanation is how I believe multi-tasking is supposed to work and has been but let me explain what's happening in terms of a message board. I click new reply, write my statement and then click submit reply, and i'm now back at the thread page. So in essence, if I now switch out of the browser then go back to it, I should be back on the thread page. But instead, it brings me back to the reply page where I would be writing my response before clicking submit reply (if that paints the picture anymore clearly).
It's not just with instagram but it's with facebook and a few other apps. After doing some messing around after reading your response I did kill the tasks, re-open the apps and they loaded to their default pages as they should. so it's something that's causing these apps to re-open to the last action you did inside the app rather than the last thing you were viewing in the app.
in phone settings don't you have the option to close app by long pressing back button?

It should be in the accessibility context menu

[Q] Clicking an image in a text

Hello everyone
I have been trying to figure this out for sometime now...maybe it's normal I'm not sure. Hopefully someone can help me figure this out.
Whenever I get a picture through text and I click it to look at it and then I want to go back to the text so I click the back button. Well it takes me to my picture folders like camera photos and what not. Is there a way to change it so when I hit back it goes back to that text and doesn't go into my photos? Or is that a normal thing? I normally have to hit my home button then go back to my texts. Just seems like I should be able to hit the back button and it should go back to my texts. Right?
Hopefully someone can help me out.
Thank you
