How to send and receive videos - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How can I send (and receive) videos shot from my S3 to another S3 or similar phone?

BT, S-Beam, Direct WiFi, AllShare, MicroSD card, MMS, Skype, FTP, ..
Next time use Google

Google Talk Video Chat

Is anybody on here able to initiate a video call via Google Talk from their g2 to a desktop Talk client? Every time I try it connects for 2 seconds and terminates the connection.
What'd driving me crazy is I can accept incoming video requests and it works perfectly.
I'm on a stock rooted device, pretty sure I had this problem before root.

At&t has a Wi-Fi only restriction. There's a guide on the forums to enable video chat over 3G. Are you on Wi-Fi? That could be the issue but I'm not to sure, when I get home I'll test.

Sorry i should have mentioned that. I've only tried this over wireless. I've also tried with 2 different desktop clients. Same thing with both can't make call but can receive call?

The one time I tried it did the same thing. I figure it is a Google Talk issue. I never used it much so I didn't worry too much but yes, I am experiencing the same issue.

Tried to another Galaxy SII Specifically on Sprint. Also tried with the web based client. If you see a video talk option, then you know it works. I've tried with Desktop (web based or iChat based) and Phone based, to no avail.

Perfect. Much thanks!
My parents have Androids, but on Verizon (Droid Bionic's). I thought it was weird, but this is the same thing I was seeing as well. Connects for a second or two, then disocnnects and says there's a problem with the network. If they contact me, it works perfectly fine.

[Q] Facebook - Push notifications still not working?

Now that there are so much options for push messages in the new facebook app and the messenger was integrated, I thought that the push messages would finally work. But they don't. Is there something I have to set up for it to work?
I mean what the hell is so difficult to make that feature work? I don't get any notifications for new messages, not to mention about any friend requests, likes etc.
Do other apps' push notifications work well for you?

Yes, this problem only exists for the facebook app! The messenger app does work fine though.

Did you ever log into your fb account with a blackberry? Because that seems to activate push notifications somehow.
Check your phones settings. Settings > Accounts & Sync.
Check your push frequency within the Facebook Application. Unsure of where it is. I deleted the application all together. Too much of a battery drain. Good luck

If this does not work its better to try other Fb apps on the market.

What other apps can you suggest? The latest Facebook sucks, it shows that I have new messages but it doesn't show the message itself, only from browser.

Actually there is both an "email" and "gmail" download available from the system dump of a nexus 5 (not a Samsung device). I was clarifying that he was referring to email and not gmail

I've seen a few reports of people in the Note 3 section having problems with video chat in Hangouts with the new apk besides having mms issues. I haven't had the chance to test the video chat on it to confirm.

MMS does not work for sure. I don't know if it is even an option to begin with on this tablet (being WiFi only) but it dies not work on my S4. I haven't tried video chat on either

I'm sorry for the confusion with what i said in my post...I wasn't stating that there is an MMS option when in installed on the 10.1. I was just merely stating that there are a few issues with the app in general right now.

No I understood you were taking about MMS with the Note 3.
However, i personally installed to see if the MMS option existed on the note 10.1 and if it did, would it work over WiFi. It isn't even an option.

Use Mighty text and send texts, it will reroute them so it comes from your phone.

This is my current setup as well for sending texts from my pc, but I use mysms. It's always just been a little more reliable for me. Does anybody know if the new hangouts, which does sms on android now, supports/will support this functionality? I installed the new apk on my phone and received my sms through it. But I didn't see any text messages in gmail. I don't have an android tablet (yet) to test the hangouts app there.
For now I have disabled SMS in hangouts again, as it was extremely laggy (especially in a conversation with over 10000 messages. the stock sms app handles that better). I felt mysms was less reliable too.

I was hoping for the same thing. I was hoping that sms and mms would sync with hangouts so that I didn't have to create backups and such.

Pictures in hangouts not working

Hangouts always used to work flawlessy. In the past days I am not able to sent pictures. There's only a retry button but it never works. I would be thankful for solutions.
Many thanks

I'd double check the APN settings and if those are correct, then install another app that can send messages and test with that. If that doesn't work, then you might look in many of the texting apps as they will allow you to add your own APN as well to make sure it is Hangouts and not the settings giving you issues.

Thanks, other messenger work fine. And the apn is correct. I just added another Google account, and sending messages with pictures using this account in hangouts works. It seems to have something to do with my account.

Hmm, that's an odd one. Maybe try changing the password on the 1st account so it will force you to sign back in. Maybe that'll be enough to jump start the MMS for that account again.
That worked. Many thanks.

I have had the same problem with my LG G Flex. I had to browse to /etc/hosts file and it should contain some strings about "account.google" or something like that. Delete that line and it should work fine.
