Cannot receive photos via text messaging, says too big to receive

I can receive photos via blue tooth but when anybody sends photos via text it does not arrive or I am told that the image is too big.

Hi,
Thank you for posting the issue here and providing more information. I did some research on the carrier and this is what I found about sending a receiving messages.
Please call your service provider to find out if there are any limitations on attachment sized for your phone plan.
I tried looking up to verify how to manually set up email for the email app for your phone, but was not sure what model you had: please check here for troubleshooting info [http://www.vodafone.com.au/help/devices/ota-settings] if the email is already set up, please ignore.
This lists the networks that work best for sending and receiving pxt in mms overseas and email
[http://support.vodafone.com.au/articles/FAQ/Sending-PXT-to-overseas-numbers]
PXT®/MMS settings [http://support.vodafone.com.au/articles/FAQ/PXT-MMS-settings]
If this continues after any optimizing changes the service provider recommends:
*Are there download settings set in the email menu
*What is the size of the attachment when this happens?
*Is it a specific file type this consistently happens?
*what kind of email account does this happen with, and is it consistent for other emails as well? If so it may be the apn settings.
If you are unable to access the images from the account with Vodafone, it may be the following bugs that is affecting this.

*Does it happen with pdfs? [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=825318]
*Does is happen when there is no message?
*Does it happen when it is too large and is there a message? [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=949972]

  • My bb classic suddenly unable to send/receive photos via text messages

    It was working up until a few weeks ago. Now I cannot share photos via text. What happened and how to fix it?

    Rebooting the device is the first troubleshooting step for odd issues like that. Resetting is the second. It was more efficient for me to suggest the reset, but in the future you should try just rebooting.
    And if you find yourself rebooting or resetting often, take a look at what you are doing, such as the last app you installed, the apps you are running, the apps you have open at the time, in short any coincidences.
    For what it's worth I practically never do resets and seldom reboot.

  • Cannot send pictures via text message since software update...HELP!!!!

    Although I am a BIG FAN of BB Torch (have had several), BUT since it was discontinued, I had no choice but to "up grade" to BB Z10...IT was working just fine...NOT as good as the Torch though, but I was getting use to it...TILL the new software came along last week (Tuesday), so after doing just that, up dating my phone, I saw that I was NOT able to send or receive pictures via text message. I did called ATT, deleted everything, resintalled my data/information...and STILL nothing.
    I "google" the problem, and was sooooo SAD to find out that I was NOT the only one, and that THIS problem is AN OLD ONE (2013), but BB has done nothing to fix it.
    I did read on of the technical support answers and followed every single step, but STILL NOTHING, NADA...no able to send neither receive pictures...PLEASE, PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!

    Well, interesting... glad it worked out.

  • I cant receive photos with text messages on my iphone 4s

    I cant receive photos with text messages on my iphone 4s. Do I need to change a setting on the phone?

    If you scroll up and don't see that button, then there are no more messages to see.
    Here's a sample image I found on Google that shows the button.

  • Iphone 3G no longer receiving photos on text message board

    Have plenty of space available but I can no longer receive photos while texting.  I am able to send photos to any phone. I deleted many photos from pic gallery but photos still will not come to my text message board.  Is there something I may have to do in order to receive photos again.  I have had no problem receiving photo into my text messages since I had the phone.  I list reception about 3 weeks ago.  Anyone?..........

    Does anyone know of a workaround to allow me to send photos from thumbnail photos?

  • Cannot send or receive photos via txt messages?!?

    with my BB I was sending and receiving photos from all my children and other relatives. On my brand new Galaxy S4 no photos get sent or received. Any advice would be appreciated.

    Sorry, I have no suggestions for you.  I have sent many pics via txt message with no problems.  You might check to see how large your pics are.  There may be a limit on the size you can send by txt. 

  • Received photo via text, how do I save it in photo gallery?

    Good Luck

  • I cannot send photos with text messages on iOS 6.0.1

    I can no longer send text messages with photos attached. The message always fails to send.

    Have you tried deleting and re adding the hipstamatic app, since you think that is the culprit?

  • How do I send photos via text message to non-iPhone users?

    I can send photos to only iPhone users, but not other phones. WHAT'S GOING ON?

    Do you have MMS messaging turned on? Does your plan allow for MMS messaging? Are you using T-Mobile in the US? T-Mo's US network is not fully compatible with the iPhone and MMS messaging may not work.

  • Restrict receiving and sending photos via texting

    Is there a way or an app that will restrict the ability to receive and send photos via texting?

    You are able to receive and send an MMS with MMS Messaging turned off at Settings > Messages?

  • Send photos via text

    Is it possible to send photos via text message instead of email?

    No. This is called MMS and is not a function of the iphone.
    E-mail works as you can send and receive pictures to and from your iphone, to and from other peoples cell phones.

  • Droid Charge - 3rd one, same problem with sending photos via text (MMS)

    Sending photos via text messaging (stock messaging client) does not work consistently.
    In a 4G area, the texts go through fine with minimal errors (perhaps 1 out of 20 failures to send)
    In a 3G or less, the texts give me an error message of "Failed" or pending, whether or not the recipient gets it (usually the recipient does not get the message) - this is true of recipients with AT&T, Sprint and Verizon service with smartphones and Blackberries.
    If I do not delete the thread, I get the message "Too many unsent multimedia messages" and the phone will not initiate the send.  The phone will, however, continue to try to sending the photo, causing very rapid battery drain.
    The last phone was replaced because the phone was not closing out the message, according to the last technician to whom I spoke.
    Is there something else I can do to get the full functionality of the phone I paid for?  This is an extremely frustrating issue, and makes me regret switching to Verizon.

        Hi moonchef!
    Sending pictures is something I do on a daily basis, so I know how important this is! It is true that pictures have to be sent over the VZW network and not Wifi. I would like to ask you if you resent the same picture that failed? Or did you send the same picture again, but in a separate message? Please try sending it again separately and let me know the results. Thanks!

  • Can I receive photos via a text msg on a Treo 755p?

    I am a Verizon (formerly Alltel) customer with a Treo 755p.  Can anyone tell me if I can receive photos via a text msg and if so, what do I need to do to view the photos?

    Hello!
    You cannot receive media content from SMS but you can from MMS/picturemail.  This requires a different plan from SMS so please contact your carrier to see if you have this plan.
