Video message

[calizae74]

Don't know if this has been posted before but me and 2 of my friends can't send video messages. We've changed the settings from standard to HD, from 1 to 30 seconds and we still get the same error message that the file can't be added. 2 are running stock ICS and one with JB. Any suggestions?

Oh. Here's a screen shot of a 5 second video.

Perhaps your carrier is limiting the MMS size?

You have to create the video from within the text messaging app. Then it works fine.

It doesn't have the ability to recompress videos you have taken with the phone outside of the MMS app. You would need to email those, or put them in Dropbox and share the link, or some other solution.

I've done that as well. Still the same thing. That's how my friend noticed she wasn't able to send a video using her front facing camera.

This might seem stupid but you would be surprised. Reboot the phone. Some strange problems get fixed this way :banghead:

OK just to be clear, you have to CAPTURE the video from within the MMS app, not just attach it. If that's not working then I have no idea what your problem could be.

Okay. That worked. Cascading that to my folks now. Thanks. Now how did you make those arrows?

In the edit photos screen, tap on the painter's palette icon, and there is an option called "doodle" that lets you doodle on pictures.
