So I always thought other peoples phones just sent a picture at a smaller resolution but last night my buddy and I recieved the same picture at the same time from someone and his was at a much higher resolution. He was using the stock SMS program and I was using Handcent. I uninstalled Handcent and had the person resend the picture so I would get it via the stock program and the picture came at a higher resolution, but not as great as the other persons. I was using my T-Mobile HTC One and he was using a Verizon HTC One X.
I was thinking it was maybe a T-Mobile thing limiting the MMS size, but today I sent a picture to both my wife and myself to compare. Hers is the Nexus 4 and I have the HTC One.
The original size of the picture being sent (after being compressed by the texting app is 235KB and 1909x1080.
My wife received that picture at 235KB @ 1909x1080 and I received the picture at 405KB 1023x579.
Does anyone have an explanation for why it's coming in like that and a fix for it? This was on the stock texting program on the phones.
Also FWIW, when Handcent is installed and I send from the stock app to myself and Handcent recieves the picture, it comes in at 188KB @ 639x362. I'm no longer a Handcent user. None of the other SMS apps did this.

I can only think of it being a setting that is limiting the size of the file. Maybe try another SMS app and see if you can change the size of the file you get. Most of the time there is settings that let you limit sizes for data reasons.

I am waiting for HTC to ship me my phone. I did a trade in program with T-Mo as a Rep i was able to trade in my N4 for a full repalcement with a HTC One should be here later this week. If you are unlocked and have a custom recovery maybe try a nanodroid and install a different rom and see how that is. You can always go back with the backup. I don't really use MMS.

I called HTC yesterday about it. The guy was able to duplicate and said he play with it and see what he came up w/ and should call me back today. There's no reason that this phone should be getting a picture at 435x767 resolution when other phones are getting it at 1088x1920. That's unacceptable.

Hey I'm trying to install the apk and it asks if I would like to replace the system app, I say okay and hit install, then it says app not installed, an existing package by the same name with a conflicting signature is already installed.
So then with a file manager with root access, i tried copy and pasting the MMS.apk into the system/app folder and it will not paste. Any advice?

Stock /system is not r/w you need to flash a kernel that allows r/w to system. I wouldn't recommend trying to replace the stock messaging app with MMS.apk, might cause undesired results.
Possible to extract default.xml from SYSTEM/CUSTOMIZE/MNS and upload so I can take a look at it?
HTC One
PM'd it to you.
So it seems on a vertical picture,the One will receive is 434x767 resolution and on a horizontal picture it's 1023x579. Keep in mind the compressed picture that the messaging app sent out was 1520x2688 and 2688x1520 respectably. I've seen these numbers multiple times.
It boggles my mind how this is their high end phone and other phones are able to recieve the high resolution pictures via text and this one can not and HTC's answer to me was "basically going to have to deal with it or get another phone". That was an unacceptable answer for me.
My 2688x1520 gets recieved at 1909x1080 and I received a verticle one at it's original size. Only thing I noticed was that the verticle image size was under 1mb originally, therefor requiring no compression. T-mobile sets it's mms limit a 1000k so Im assuming size recieved depends on amount of compression required.

Okay so i have seen a few threads on this but none of the Atrix. i know phones automaticly resize pictures, but not THIS bad. i just sent a 1mb picture to my phone from hotmail and it seriously made it look 10kb. really? it looks like giant pixels LOL, whats the point of MMS if you can't even see details of the picture. it seems i can send decent size pictures, but recieving them is a different story. i have tried GoSMS, Handcent, and stock messaging app. It did this on stock ROM and does same on gingerblur pROM. My last phone was the HD7 and it had NO problem like this, before that i had the mytouch 4G and it had no problem as well, even the mytouch 3g, and 3g slide i had didnt lmao. This is the first att phone ive had, maybe its something to do with them? everyone else that has had this problem only has seemed to have it with sending pictures, not recieving.
I just did a test and sent the same picture twice from my GMail to my phone. In the first I attached the picture and in the second I copied it into the body of the email. Both pictures came through to my phone as mms in their original size. I know this doesn't help solve your problem, but it might help in narrowing it down for you. BTW, I am AT&T.

okay, i will try it on my Gmail account. maybe it is hotmail. I actually use Tmobile, i was just saying its my first actually att phone. lol
lol look how much smaller it made them. 6XXkb to 20kb. -_- 1440x990 to 160x110. i REALLY hope motorola unlocks the bootloaders so we can get other ROMs on this thing. this is rediculous lmao.
Did some research. Apparently T-Mobile resizes pictures to 160 x 120 if they are larger, and if they are on a cell phone which T-Mobile does not sell. Might want to call them and ask about this. You will see the following under the "Mobile-to-e-mail or e-mail-to-mobile" section:
"NOTE: All images will be resized to match the recipient’s phone’s capabilities. If the capabilities are not known (such as phones not sold by T-Mobile USA) images will be resized to160 x 120 pixels if they are larger."

Same issue here, everything gets dumb resized.
My iPhone 4 would resize too, but not this bad.

If using Go SMS, upping the MMS size limit and checking the "preserve image resolution" box seems to do the trick for me.
Now, if the Gmail app would ask if you would like to resize like the iPhone, I'd be happier.

i have tried this and it didnt work. im wondering if there is some setting or hack/mod to make it seem like its a tmobile phone.. like HD7 or something. seeing some people do it on Nokia and other phones but cant find anything on this.
btw, do you have tmobile??
I was on the phone with tmobile, then called att. they put me on the phone with motorola, the rep put me on the phone with a tech class 2 and none of them could solve it. im sure its what the other guy said. reading some other forums and other people are having the issue with other phones. this is so irritating.

I think that those problems were in early versions of cm7, not sure. At last I've never had that issue.
Try using custom ua, and set a newer phone that your carrier are selling.

I don't know about that! Because I've had this same problem and I'm on at&t! Ill send an animated gif to someone thats between 500 kb and say 3 mb and it will convert it to around 12 kb when it converts it to an mms! I've tried messing with all the settings and different sms apps such as handcent, gosms, and a ton of others even some chinese ones where I couldn't even read the damn thing and nothing helped! I just rewiped my whole phone and am gonna attempt it again now! I don't understand why it was doing that!

read post above, you can fix this problem.
I've seen a few people ask about how to increase the MMS file size limit so I figured I'd post up this easy way to do it.
Download GoSMS from the market if you don't already have it installed
(I've attached Screenshots for you to follow along)
Go to Settings, click the "Advanced" tab, scroll down and click "MMS settings"
Click on "Maximum MMS size"
Set to desired file size limit.
Then press back button
Check the box to "Preserve image resolution"
And BAM, your done. Easy Peasy.
Even though I have no 4g here in Phoenix AZ, I usually have it set to 2M. It usually takes a little longer to send on 3G but I can confirm that it does in fact send.

This is good, but trust me. A few years back, people were walking around the office taking video and sending inter-office e-mail. One I liked and tried to send via MMS to family. No good. I then took like 10 second video to send, same thing, no good as it was too big.
Take 15 hour video and attach to e-mail! Then send to:
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
(whatever, you get my point!) but it does the same thing! The only thing bad with Sprint is, you do not have use of your phone while transmitting! My "15 hour video" comment was a joke (and you would be stupid to try it) I did like 2 minutes of HD and it tied up my phone for like 10 minutes or so? WiFi would likely be better?
Well that's a good point but when comes to sending an email attachment just use regular email and every smart phone is tight to email account anyway and accomplish is the same, the struggle is how to send mms and either the phone or provider on either site compresses the attachment.

Hey Guys.
I've been looking at how to do this for ages but...GoSMS is all well and good but, I like the stock SMS app...Its a little more...lets say, less "permisiony"...
But how can one do this change with the stick SMS app?? Is there an XML file you can edit?
Thanks.
Did you ever get any resolution to this? I'm on a Samsung Galaxy S4 Google edition and definitely want to stick to the stock messaging app, but outgoing photos attached via SMS from the camera are compressed to garbage. They're tiny and horrifically artifacted... it's killing me.

No fix for this then? i just sent a text on my one plus and its 90kb, danggg
I just tried this on my VZW S4 and it seems to work for sure at 2mb. HOWEVER, when attaching pix it does not give any means to pick "gallery" so that I can pick images to attach from their files, instead, taking you straight to what appears identical to the factory installed "picture" app where all images are shotgunned onto a single HUGE page. Can this be fixed?
Other than that, I love the app as it does give a better detailed report with each post time and DATE stamped as well as a little green check to indicated received. The stock messaging doesn't do that and also will not allow you to request a read receipt without getting the same audible notice that you get when receiving a message.
I am going to ask you to do a test and see what kind of results you're getting.
The issue is that the HTC One is receiving a MMS picture at a much lower resolution then what is being sent. I have been on the phone with T-Mobile and HTC all day yesterday and today and the answer that I got from HTC basically was either deal with getting a compressed picture on this phone or get a different phone.
It is not a T-Mobile issue because I can send the same picture to my wifes phone (Nexus 4) or anyone elses phone and they are getting the same resolution as what is sent out.
The test I'm going to ask you is to simply send a picture message to yourself and take note of the out coming size and the incoming size when viewed in your text app.
For example, in my stock messaging app:
I sent out a picture at size of 783kb @ a resolution of 1520x2688
I recieved the picture back at a size of 166kb @ 434x767.
This was a picture taken vertical and a horizontal one will having varying numbers.
The point is to see whether the HTC one is receiving back a much smaller and compressed picture. Keep in mind, other phones are getting the same size resolution than what is being sent out. I'd appreciate any input so I can hopefully get someone with HTC involved in fixing the issue.
Or if my phone is the only doing that, it would be good to know as well...
No test needed. The One compresses pictures when sent over MMS. If you want to send uncompressed you will need to use a 3rd party messaging app.
Well i sent myself an 800kb picture and received a 290kb so I guess yea it's reduced . I think using facebook messenger or Kik whatsapp won't compress your pics so much so yea .

Handcent, Chomp SMS, and Go SMS all provide similar results. The point is, it shouldn't be compressing the resolution like it is and that is something HTC will have to fix. I realize it compresses them when sending them. All phones do that.
It should not be compressing them again when it receives the same picture just for fun when no other phone does that.
Edit: The picture size and resolution that I posted in the original post are the stats of the compressed picture that the sms program sent, not the original size as viewed in the gallery.

I send a picture to me with 259KB resolution 1909 x 1080 and receive a 413KB resolution 1023 x 579
I would like to know how to send a full sized MMS on sprint's network. Even if I install a rom that can send up to 5M, I notice the receiver always gets something along the lines of 200kb. I have tried both GoSMS and Handcent to send pictures, and neither work even when put at full size in options. So far the only way I've acheived this is to use Handcent's personal network, upload the picture there, then send someone the link to which they download from. Now this is rather inconvenient, as some of my friends don't have smartphones yet, so it's hard for them to view the file. I''d also prefer to not email pictures, as it's just very slow and difficult. Can anyone explain how to fix this? Thank you
I guess nobody knows...
Try this work around I posted elsewhere and it's helped a few people......
Add a random pic to the message (it will probably be a small file like you say), then add the picture you actually want to send (should be way bigger according to message size number, ie: goes from 200kb to 1375kb etc). Now long press on the first pic and remove it.....you SHOULD be left with the second pic and the size should be the original size of the pic 1375-200=1175kb.
Let me know if that works.

Try this work around I posted elsewhere and it's helped a few people......
Add a random pic to the message (it will probably be a small file like you say), then add the picture you actually want to send (should be way bigger according to message size number, ie: goes from 200kb to 1375kb etc). Now long press on the first pic and remove it.....you SHOULD be left with the second pic and the size should be the original size of the pic 1375-200=1175kb.
Let me know if that works.

Hmm it didn't work... Also, cm10.1 doesnt allow me to attatch more than one picture for some reason. I can either send, remove, or replace
Ooooh, yea cm10 I'm not familiar with. I'm sorry, I'm on sense 5 atm...that workaround works for sense 4+.....in sense 5 the pics send full size off the bat with no issues...

All the AOSP roms seem to play funny with mms. I couldn't find a solution and tried quite a few things. Sense Rom was my solution.
I'd like to know if anyone else gets a text about the receiver having a size limit and your mms not going through?

Nope, never heard of such a thing.. at least from my end
I've received those notifications but only if sending a MMS to someone with a different carrier that sprint

Is that what it is? I guess that makes sense. Most people I know are on Verizon.
Is there a way to raise the MMS size to greater than a meg? Running just a rooted stock rom at the moment using the default kernel...it's annoying because even with third party SMS apps like textra it seems to still cap mms messages off at a 1 mb. Is there any way to raise this? Friends on at&t who have the iphone can send much larger pics than this so I don't see why the One is limited....
Pretty sure that's a network restricted thing at that point

It is. AT&T limit is around 1MB. I tested by setting Textra MMS size to 'no limit'; a .99MB pic send fine, but 1.15MB pic fails to send.
Install 'sense5 Toolbox' if your rooted. Let's you raise the mms size no problems..

I thought so too, but my friend sends larger than 1 mb files with the iphone 5s so I thought maybe it was a phone limitation

I grabbed that, says I need "Xposed" and that it's available in teh ARHD installer....plus I went in to Messaging Mods and all I saw was "Raise your MMS size to 300K, 600K, or 1000K".
