[Q] picture shows up as video - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

So I couldn't find a solution to my problem, when I receive a picture it shows as a video. I'm running unnamed. Is there a mod or something to fix this?

I have the same problem.

the only real fix to this is to use a different SMS/MMS app. i prefer GOSMS Pro, over anything else.
its just the way the stock messaging app works, only way around it is through a third party app.

Go SMS Pro is much better then the stock sms/mms app

Holy crap! I just answered this very same question in another thread maybe 5 threads above this. How many times is this going to be asked? I'm too lazy to check which thread was first and I will admit that the XDA search feature is a bit annoying to use, but for FFS! Now I see why the older members are always *****ing.
That said, I will add substance to this post. I just switched to Go SMS Pro this morning and have to second the suggestion for it. It has been working fine for MMS and they come across just as expected.

Thanks for your opinion but its not an answer but just a work around. Thanks

You're right. It's not an answer. If you don't like the stock messaging app, complain to Samsung

No I think I would rather complain here so that devs can do something about it. Thanks though

yeah, that will get you FAR....
you could try REQUESTING it, but complaining about it will get you pretty close to nowhere.
try being nice to a dev and not be a ****.

Because your reply was so helpful? "oh u don't like your phone go tell SAMSUNG and my answer is the only solution srry " Try not being a **** first.

cool story bro.
how long before this thread gets shut down now?

Ugh, another one of these threads? Thats what the search button is there for. The stock messaging app from Samsung uses the video viewer to view all multimedia, so that includes pictures. If you want pictures to come up in the gallery, I suggest you replace the Samsung MMS.apk with the AOSP MMS.apk.
Also, calling people a **** for telling you what to do or look for (while it may not be the answer that you were looking for) is not the way to get anything around here... and it will get you an infraction/ban if kept up.

wait are you on stock or what rom are you on?
There's probably mods for it, or someone can make them for you.
I'm actually on stock

Umm....Do you think maybe DarkGinger, Slightly Better Gingerbread, or one of the 100 other Gingerbread themes/roms might be of some help to you?

Here's a new one for you, SEARCH, there are plenty of different mods, icons and so forth on this site. Do it your self, quit asking for hand outs of things that are all over the place.

OF COURSE "there'd be one" People have spent countless hour to provide the community with exactly what you're asking for, but you're too lazy/ignorant to figure that out. Sorry if you're "not feeling it." Build something yourself.
What does this dude even want?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I'm that somebody that tells you to just root, get nero or gingerclone, rock microbes lwp and viola. If your not feelin it then put the work in for ur beloved vibrant. Root isn't hard and its easy to undo later if need be. Who's gonna look that closely anyway, and why does it matter. Theres a guy that I work with that has the nexus s and doesn't even try to flex on me. My Vibrant w/ nero is effin beast. Are you one of those guys that walks up and says "hey, look at my phone". Don't be a poser, come correct or not at all. And another thing, if you want answers be specific about what you need help with, not just, I want it to look like... I'm not trying to bust ur balls, just sayin.

Crappy search

Anybody else notice how the search in the xda app tends to bring back every result except the one you asked for? Have a for instance, last night I was searching for this thread (I assumed to be old) pertaining to the myTouch 4g and screen contrast issues. So i type in, glacier myTouch screen contrast. It brings back stuff on the evo, flyer, inspiration, the housing market in 03, and something about grape seeds and the allergic reaction they have towards condalisa rice... So maybe the last two were a lie, but you get my point lol there wasn't even any results from the myTouch 4g section lol

Yeah I hate how the xda app searches. I wish you can search a specific forum or thread instead of all the forums, sub forums etc...
I rarely use the search on xda. I get better result using google for xda specific items.
In my experience, all forums have garbage search routines. I never even use them. Use google instead. Put in your search terms and then put site:forum.xda-developers.com.

Oh I have no problems finding what i need with google, just the dag blast search engine in the app lol anyone have any female friends on google+ yet lol

My thoughts exactly. I paid for it so I could use it. But i love xda lol they've helped me with a great many phones just wish my searches would work, or like darkman said, links to the app sounds nice as well. Isn't their a way to integrate google search into Apps?
sent from my 3devo of DOOOOOOM!!!
One of the biggest problems is that it sorts the results by date....which if you're looking for an older topic/post...good luck finding that....needs to have options to narrow search results.

A couple of females i know have it.

[Q] Did i go blind, where's the search button?

It could be just my pc trying to fool me but i cant find the search button anymore
logged in at xda and searched trough sgsII threads but nowhere to be found
so is this just me or is anybody else missing the search function to.
i think i saw an error message earlier saying that they were updating the search function. i dont have it either.
SOPA took it
I think they just removed it because nobody was using it.
People just prefer to start a new thread about things that have already been answered a million times.
What's the use they said?? Let's get rid of it.

Hardy ha ha. Would have Merritt though.
Seriously, just some site maintenance. I'm having issues with the XDA app too, but expect it's related.

Just for the better already wanted to by some new specs, now i can spend the money on more important things like booze.
ps: did a search on the search button but came up with nothing........

Google Now rarely responds.

I don't know if this is better suited in the Jellybean thread, but I'd hate to see this drowned among the 100's of posts every day in that thread.
I am Swedish, but I've set everything possible to English (US) and to use Google.com instead of Google.se and to always speak back, yet it rarely does. It also completely ignores statements and only googles them. LIke if I say: "I can count to potato", it searches the web for it rather than throwing me a sassy comeback or whatever.
Google now only gives back useful information .. no jokes and useless chats.

That was a bit of a let down. I guess I've always expected Now to be a little chatty. Looks like I'm gonna have to find some other app for the actual chat.

Yes they do, but hopefully you as well
Try vlingo or just use s-voice (based on vlingo like siri).
Iris would also be something you could try, it's almost only usable as chat bot.
Google now is to get informations or handle tasks, no chat bot.
