Solved: Mms size on Htc One

Anonymous · ‎20-05-2013

Hi Guys

Does anyone know if its possible to increase the size of mms messages that I send on the Htc One for some reason it automatically compresses them down to something stupid like 76kb and loses a lot of quality cant seem to find anything in the settings apart from 300kb which it is set on but still compresses

Is it not a preset limit by the networks? Maybe O2's limit is 76kb.... I dunno as I haven't sent one in ages....

Not sure I know my Iphone used to send bigger ones

Can you not send or share it some other way? MMS is so outdated and primitive now we have smartphones....

I could but to be honest I have the 50mms bolt on Foc so might as well use it

They could give me 500 free and I still wouldn't use them.... Even if you could send the 300k phone limit which would you rather look at... 300kb or 3mb ?

True but I would still like to know why it compresses it

Because it's crappy old tech designed in the days before 3G was ever dreamt of when the biggest camera on a cell phone was 0.5mp. Back then it didn't matter that the max size was sub 100k - it was just cool to send a pic on your phone....
