[Q] SMS on AOSP roms - Verizon LG G3

Hi all. When running any type of CM Rom, for the life of me I cannot receive an uncompressed picture with any app other than Textra. Sending is fine, only receive is the issue.
Anyone know of a fix?
*if you're not sure what I'm talking about, try taking a screen shot of something with a lot of words (internet page). Then text it to yourself. You'll see that the outgoing image is much sharper than the one received.

Text and Picture

Is there a possible a permanent texting program similar to the one provided by HTC where the picture is included with the text messages but that be the primary texting application. Instead of going to the old list of text messages and opening it. Have a picture next to the person your talking to, I sometimes forget who I'am texting lol I know it sounds bad but if i had the picture next the it at all times that would be cool

I'm guessing he wants to have his sms inbox looking like it does in sense 2.5, with the contact picture next to the message.
I would love to have this as well in my sms inbox on a regular winmo6.5 titanium rom, does anybody know if there is such a thing available? (with out using sense 2.5)
Try PocketCM contacts. You still get a list of messages per contact (which makes sense), but their picture is shown at the top of the list

MMS Received Picture Sizes

I would appreciate some feedback about MMS pictures received by users running a stock-based ROM. When you receive pictures, are they ever larger than 640x480? Specifically, can you answer the following:
Ask a friend to send you a picture through MMS that is definitely larger than 20kb.
1) What carrier did they send the picture from?
2) Is their phone using a stock operating system?
3) What is the size of the message you received (long press the message and tap "View message details")?
This information is being collected to see whether an issue exists in the CyanogenMod ROM. Please only report Sense-based ROM findings here.
I sent a screen shot to myself on my stock Incredible 4G. It came through the same size as the original. 501kb, 480x800.

[Q] Media & Group Messaging Broken

Hey, folks. I'm new, obviously.
I recently rooted and s-offed my LTEVO. I installed TWRP 2.6.3.0 and CM10.1 Stable (I also installed the exFAT fix). The problem I'm having and that I'm reading a lot of people are having is with MMS. I'm not sure if group messaging falls into MMS or SMS but I can neither send/receive picture or media messages, nor can I SEND group messages (although I can receive them). I'm not sure what's going on behind the scenes, whether there's a fix that I just haven't found (I have done extensive searching/trolling before making a profile to ask this question) or if this is a common issue which may have been resolved in newer builds. Essentially, I was wicked pumped when I found out that I could receive group messages from people because the stock, unrooted LTEVO would receive "multimedia messages" from everyone participating in the conversation individually instead of all within the same thread or whatever you wanna call it. But, as I've come to find out, I can't actually participate in these group sessions, I can only SEE them organized within one text thread (which is still better than stock, but disappointing that it doesn't take one seemingly essential step further). Also, I thought it was just crappy Sprint service, but it seems that I can't send or receive multimedia messages (that aren't in text form). I was excited, again, to see that the preview of the image I was going to send was minimally compressed, if at all. I was sick of sending people screenshots of blurry, illegible caca, but again this feature falls short and now I can't actually send or receive any form of media.
Anyway, any help would be greatly appreciated. I can't seem to figure out what I'm doing wrong, or maybe what I'm just NOT doing right. At any rate, if anyone could shed some light on my unfortunate situation that'd be stellar. I'm forced to use Voxer for the time being.
I'm having the same problem. Any assitance is welcome!
I can't say I completely understand your issue but will give an answer with my best guesstimate as to a fix.
You are trying to group messages with others that have iPhones. iPhones natively send texts as mms while android natively sends as sms. Hence your problem (I think).
You need to use a third party messaging app. There are a couple that handle this but I use Go Sms Pro. It allows you to send and receive texts all while staying in the group without splitting the messages.
Once you install go sms pro you need to change a few settings in the app (you can find the correct group settings on Google easily) and disable the notifications from the stock messaging app (so you don't get multiple notifications for one text).
Hope this is what you were asking about as it is an issue for a lot of people.

[Q] Hangouts tries to attach a photo every time I open it

I'm not sure what is causing this, but it's annoying.
When I receive a new SMS/Hangout from someone, I tap on the notification and it opens hangouts. When the hangout opens, it has a photo ready to attach, usually one of the last ones I sent. It does this pretty consistently.
I'm pretty good about backing out of stuff when I'm done and that seems to have no effect. I definitely wasn't in the process of attaching a photo last time I used Hangouts.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there some way to make sure this doesn't happen?

AOSP NEATROM v3.1 splitting sms!!!!!

hey everyone
i have this VERY frustrating issue where the stock messaging app keeps splitting my sms's or converts them to an mms after 160 characters. on jellybean it used to show me how many split sms's there were but it would always send them as one big text. this time its sending 5 separate texts!!!! or if i go mms it will send it all in one go but i shouldn't have to do that..
4.4.2 I9100 AOSP NeatROM v3.1
is there anything i can do to correct this annoying stock sms app...
also i can seem to be able to change my answering call settings/layout??? its a little annoying having to slide the phone away from you to answer a call, its caught me the first few calls i received. still haven't found the screen to help edit those features...?
anything would be great!! cheers
