AC Question
I bought a new LG G3 phone and ever since my picture messages are sent after being horribly compressed resulting in really poor quality. I've previously owned a htc one (m7) and currently also own a sony z ultra, none of my other phones have this problem.
I've run some tests on my sony and all the pictures I send get compressed to just under 300kb usually, however on the LG the pictures sent get compressed to around only 100kb.
I've also had a friend send me some picture mms's and they were all around ~270kb. I then saved these pictures and resent it back, the resent pictures were all around 100kb, with very noticeable worse quality.
Thinking this is hangouts causing the issue, I downloaded a third party messaging app which allows for file size adjusting of MMS messages, I set it to 300kb Max but the image still gets compressed to around 100kb.
PS: The G3's stock messaging app would not work after I restored my backup of messages, it would just always crash and hang the phone. So it forced me to use Google's hangouts as my default messaging app.
This is a killing blow for my new G3 to me and I'm on the verge of returning it.
I am missing an obvious solution? Or there is more to this problem? Any help is appreciated.
