Mms sends pics as video - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Don't know why when I search for anything I get 50+ threads on rom builds, search function needs advanced options on app. For specific forum searches.
Problem is posted in title. Texts send with data off, pics need data toggle on, but send as video. I'm almost always on wifi.

You might want to try Handcent or GoSMS. My issues went away.

Contact Groups

I'm using KaosFroyo rom and the contacts with this rom don't allow me to group my contacts. Does anyone know if the Taz roms allow grouping in contacts.
It's really a necessity for me with my business.
Thanks!

I don't think that would change the contacts behavior. You may need to try a different dialer off the market. I've used Dialer One in the past, but I don't know if it has that specific feature. Check it out.
I think there is an actual app on the market called Contact Group Manager, though. This might be preferable for you because if you back up the app and it's data, then when you flash a different ROM later you can restore the app and it's data so you don't have to set up your groups again.
Thanks for the input. I don't think Dialer One has that function if I remember correctly, I'll give it another try.
I did download the contact app you recommended and its exactly what I need, but there's a problem... everytime I try to scroll through the contacts (using the scroll tab on the right), it FC's when I hit "H". Not the worst problem, but annoying. Maybe when KaosFroyo releases V39 that might help??

I doubt if a change in ROM or ROM versions would make a difference. Sounds like only a bug in Contact Group Manager. I would contact the dev about it.
Glad I was able to help.
Figured it out. If I keep the sort order set to "default" everything works fine.
I'm a happy camper. Thanks again for the help.

Picture messages as short video clips?

Hi I was wondering if anyone knew why whenever I send people picture messages, they show up as a quick video clip (or might be a slide show) but it's all black until the very last second and disappears since the video ends, thanks!

what rom are you on? I had this on the latest TW I tried.... I flash so often I didnt think much of it, but yeah... pretty annoying.
I've only been running team whiskey roms, currently on their latest bionix

Ive noticed this on axura 2.3.0.0, its annoying but i just ignore it as i don't receive mms very often. I have only noticed this ever since switching to the latest kb1 based roms.

Text issues

Recently my thunderbolt has been sending 4 copies of the same text message to everyone. Has anyone encountered this problem or know of a fix?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Mine sent a message three times today. Not sure why. Using Go SMS Pro.
This is a Verizon network issue, along with several others regarding the thunderbolt. Hopefully it will be fixed soon .

I'm having a different kind of texting issue.
Sometimes when people text me, I'll pull down the notification bar to reply, write my message, and try to send. But the "Send" button is greyed out! I have to close out and reopen for it to work again.
Are you running a custom Rom or a different sms app than stock?

Yes that was directed at you. For the little time that i was on stock i was noticing that too. I think that it is a bug with the sense text. I disabled everything in stock sms and started using go sms, seams to have fixed it for me.
Sense seems to have some issues updating it's texting widget for me, I'll get the notification for a new sms, I'll go to my widget screen to read it and it won't be there, it's not until I go through the notification bar to read it that it shows up, kinda annoying.

[Q] sms time

Hi guy can someone help me im new to the world of android have the sgs2 rooted etc but can someone tell how to get your sms time as the sent time not the recived it is one of the little pet hate about the phone, have had a look and cant see anything about a fix or is this standered with all android ???
What are you reffering to? The situation when you send a sms and the other part has the phone off and the sms is resent at an interval of time like 1h,6h,1day,1week and maximum? Or are you reffering to schedule sms timer?
In the first case, I think there is no option for that...at least I didn't find it(although I miss it).
In the second case,you solve the problem by installing an app like sms scheduler etc.

MMS Square Boxes?

Okay so, I can receive MMS, but when I press download I get this box, anyone having this problem?
EDIT; for those telling me to fully wipe and stuff, I already did that.

Check and or change your apns. If it is not set up correctly it will not send/receive mms. It will receive regular text usually. Look up the thread about apns. If you cant get it to work pm me and I will send what my settings are.

you gave absolutely no information about your situation. What Rom are you on? What kernel? Have u checked in both those threads to see if it's an issue with anyone else? Do you use the stock sms app or third party? Did u freeze the stock sms app if you are using third party? How long has this been happening? If you don't give any details how do you expect anyone to help u resolve the issue.
