I noticed this as well. Curious to why.
Same here. Saves as a photo correctly though. I pretty much shrug it off now.

I am not sure but I have never seen anything like this before. I hope someone can tell me how to fix it or tell me of another text application I can use.

Confirmed saw this too. Last time this happened was way back in the day on like my LG Voyager or something.
Yep. Does this on my S3 as well.
Is there another messaging app I can use?

I ditched the stock messaging app because of that. I use Handcent. Your pictures are sent and received as pictures and you can look at then in full screen. Plus there are a ton of other customizable things you can play with.
I noticed that too. +1 for Handscent. I also hated how the stock Messenger app doesn't clear the unread count after reading.
How do you like that handcent?Quote:

I love it! I have been using it on my last 5 or 6 android phones. I did try to give the stock one on the note a chance, but it failed miserably.Quote:

It also sets vcards as videos. I smirked. Lol
I noticed that if I attach a picture in a coversation it sends it as an MMS but if I am in the gallery and share a picture via messaging it sends it as a video.
On handcent do you still get the missed SMS bubble on it like the stock program

I thought that all mms containing pictures now automatically assume the slideshow format. It's not a movie. The play button is to play the slideshow. I thought this was just a standard Android thing since ICS. I don't like it either.
Definitely not part of AOSP. It behaves normally on my stock Galaxy Nexus. It's something Samsung has done to their messaging app.Quote:

I would bet it was Verizon that messed it up!Quote:

It's not just a Samsung thing... my old HTC Rezound did exactly the same thing, and the Galaxy S3 as well. That's why I thought it was just an Android thing now. So it must be Verizon trying to force certain vzw standards on us.
Other than using a different app, has anyone figured anything else out about this? I'm annoyed by this seeing as though I send a picture text to friends/family that don't have smartphones and can't see videos. They constantly text me and say they can't see the picture I sent them. (I'm using a Samsung Galaxy Axiom)
Its not just on Verizon, my captivate and note 2 I originally had on at&t did the same thing!
