Sending picture messages

I am having a really hard time sending pictures VIA text or SMS. Each time I send a pic the other serson says that pic image is too large. Is there a way to do this? I am sure there is I just need a littlew help..

The maximum file size for picture / video messages varies from device to device. The file size limitation is based on the megapixels of the camera on the device:
Devices with a .3 megapixel camera can send / receive a maximum file size of 100 KB.
Devices with a 1.2 - 2 megapixel camera can send / receive a maximum file size of 350 KB.
Devices with a 3.0+ megapixel camera can send / receive a maximum file size of 500 KB.
Lowering the camera resolution will reduce the image file size.
Many devices are capable of sending messages that exceed intercarrier file size limits (typically 300 - 600 KB). A message that exceeds the other carrier's limits will be rejected and not reach the intended recipient.

Network authentication failed error message when trying to send picture messages

I have a family member who is trying to send picture messages from Dubois, WY. Verizon's map shows that Dubois is in the extended enhanced services area. I am guessing that this may be one of those instances where the coverage map is not 100% accurate. Please let me know if you have any other ideas or suggestions as to what the problem might be or how to resolve it.

Customers have the ability to take pictures / videos anywhere. However, messages can only be sent, received, or uploaded, while in the Verizon Wireless National Enhanced Services Rate and Extended Network Coverage Area.
Try dialing *228 send and option 2 to update the PRL on the phone. Updating the PRL or Preferred Roaming List, ensures the phone is getting the best service possible.

Issue sending picture messages

I have no issue sending or receiving pictures from other people with my S4; however, when I send pictures, I'm regularly told by who I was trying to send it to that it wouldn't come through or wasn't attached. On my end it looks like it when through, though. Some of my AT&T friends receive a message saying the message was deleted. I have the issue with all carriers, including Verizon, and with mulitple different phones. I've checked the Global/LTE mobile data issue and this problem happens when I'm on WiFi and when I'm not. Happens at least half the time. Sometimes, they get it if I resend it, but many times it's a lost cause. Really frustrating...I didn't have this issue with an iPhone, but it's making me want to switch back.

I'm using the original messaging app. I don't have issues using 3rd party applications.

How to send picture message using J2ME sms APIs?

Hi,
I experiment with SMS APIs, i successfully send simple text message. now i want to send picture message, how to send picture message using J2ME APIs.
please guide me.
guna.

I experienced in coding sending and receiving sms in J2ME. Besides, I also esperienced in coding reading a binary file in a applicaition jar. But I never done these both together. Hence Im not sure it works or not. Below is the example to open and read a binary file:
InputStream oInputStream = getClass().getResourceAsStream( "/picture.png" );
if(oInputStream == null) {
//File does not exist;
throw new Exception("File not found");
//Read the binary file and copy it to a byte array
byte[] abyPicture = new byte[oInputStream.available()];
oInputStream.read(abyPicture );

I have an iphone 3gs and i cant get it to send picture messages to anyone without an iphone? i already checked to make sure my sms setting is on and it is.

I just bought a used iphone 3gs, (very new to the smart phone thing), and i set the phone up as a straight talk phone. I can send picture messages to other iphones but not to anyone else? I already made sure that my sms setting is on and it is, so is my imessage , mms and group message. anyone with any advise would be greatly appreciated

More than likely the problem is with the provider. You will need to check with them to find out what settings need to be on the phone to support MMS. You need to contact Straight Talk. SMS and MMS are carrier functions. The only settings on the phone are the ones you have mentioned, with the exception of APN settings, which are generally taken care of by the phone's carrier settings. I'm not aware of a carrier file for Straight Talk.

Why won't my iphone 5 send picture messages

So I had an iphone 4 which was configured to another network, a GSM network but now I have an iPhone 5 which is on AT&T's network. It seems that my iPhone 5 wont let me send picture messages unless its through imessage. Could this possibly be due to the network setting that were on my iPhone 4 ? if so how do i reverse this

It shouldn't have anything to do with the iPhone 4 if your iPhone 5 has been activated properly. You would've received a new sim since they use different size sim cards. Try going to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. This will give your phone a reboot and fix any network related issues. Also, try going into Settings>Messages>Make sure MMS Messaging is turned ON.

6280 sending picture messages

Hi,
I've been trying to send picture messages but although it seems that they are going from my side, they never arrive at their destination! I then tried to send to an e.mail address but it says the image is too large to attach!
Any ideas on how to resize the image so that I can send it or why my pix would not be reaching their destination?
S

Check that MMS is turned on in your settings menu.
The manual says that it is available (Page 102)

Droid 4 not sending picture messages

All day I have had problems with my Droid 4 not sending picture messages. I can recieve them, but not send. Regular text messages go through fine. I've had a 3G signal all day, although the mobile web does seem to be running a bit slow. I just got this phone 5 days ago, and have had nothing but problems with it ever since. I had to get a new sim card the very first day.
I live in central Ohio, was just wondering if anyone else was having problems, or knew of a solution

Go in to Settings--Apps--Manage Apps Click on ALL, Find the "MESSAGING" app and open. When you are in MESSAGING, click DISABLE or FORCE STOP. Next, click CLEAR DATA. (a warning will tell you that you will loose all your data and messages, click OK.(all of my messages were saved)). Now, click ENABLE if you dont have the enable button just exit out. Then either (1)Exit to the home screen, go into the APPs manager (white circle with 6 dots) and find the MESSAGING icon. press, hold and drag it back to you home sceen. Or your Message icon will still be there and it will just reenable on its own, just go and try to send your pic and it should work.
Did for me, did for my brother. Hope I've helped, and hopfully this is a permenant fix. I've been sending more pictures now a day later and it still works.

Brand new LG G2 and unable to send picture messages?

i was able to send picture messages until two days ago. Now I am unable too. Is there anything I can do to be able to send pictures again?

I was told by a service tech that this is a known problem with the LG G2. It apparently was caused by a google update and they aren't correcting it till September, by apparently doing another update.. I am on my 2nd LG G2 phone. My 1st one worked for3 months and started not sending pics or receiving pics with messages. The 2nd one worked for 3 days before it started doing the same thing. I did everything they told me to do plus a hard reset which I did several times and only works for 3 days. And who wants to reset their phone every 3 days. My phone also will only let me open a few emails before I get a "failed" "server not responding", try again later. Have no idea if that is connected with the pic text messages or not, but it is annoying. If google can not get the issue corrected then I understand they will issue new phones. I really don't understand how everything is connected and if someone can explain it further I'd like to hear. Hope this helps.

I have an iPhone 4 and under a Pay As You Go plan. Why can't I send picture messages?

I have an iPhone 4 and I'm paying my bills through the Pay As You Go $50 Monthly Plan. Lately, I couldn't send pictures messages or have wireless access to anyone on my phone. I'm able to send text messages and make calls but can't send picture messages or unable to have wireless internet unless it's under a Wi-Fi. If I'm under a GoPhone plan, what plan should I purchase in order to send pictures and have wireless access to my phone? Should I switch over to the the $65 Monthly Plan? Purchase the Feature Packages? Please help

HT1688 why cant i send picture messages any more after upgrading to IOS 6

Yesterday my iphone for some odd reason turned to reovery mode and I was forced to restore&update my iPhone to the iOS 6. Now I can no longer send picture messages. i would like to go back to iOS 5.1 because the 6 is also draining out my battery and also for some reason my phone, again like yesterday, went into Recovery mode! It is really fustrating. I spoke with AT&T and I am still on the unlimited SMS&MMS plan. I dont know what the cause is of all these issues but I hope someone can fix it fat because every restore takes up 3-4 hours

I've never been able to share FaceBook posts nor seen the option using the iOS FaceBook app regardless the FaceBook app and iOS version. I can Like and I can Comment, and if I select a link or video to view under iOS 6, I can use the Share option for the link or video, but not for a post.

After updating to iOs 6 software, sending picture messages doesn't work or is extremely slow. I have to try to send it multiple times before it will actually send and even then it will take almost ten minutes. Any advice?

So yesterday vibration suddenly started working again, after nearly two weeks with the problem above. I have no idea why, I didn't change any settings and the only app that was updated yesterday was Facebook messenger...
