Can't send Pictures sometimes.

[Benawyl]

I can receive pictures fine. But most of the time I can't send. Heck I might try to send one it fails. I send a different picture and it works.

I have a galaxy s5 on straight talk running at&the sim. Android 5.0

No issues sending pictures via kik. No issues get text only group mms and responding.

Secondly issue I have no touch tones so I can't ever get into my voicemail.

Sounds like a size problem - files larger than 25 MB (that's all the picture attachments plus the email itself) won't send. Use email or post the picture on a file-sharing site and sent the recipient a link to it.

Not sure how that's the issue when these are pictures I've taken on the phone. I can take a picture of my son and it won't send then take a picture of the thermostat on the wall and it does.

Assuming your wall is painted a single color, those two pictures will be noticeably different in file size due to JPG compression.

Never had this issue with my last phone which was a piece of crap ZTE majesty.

Most likely your old phone took much lower resolution picture, so the size was small enough for MMS.

MMS is normally limited to 300KB - check the size of the file you're trying to send. (Use a file manager.)

I know this sounds stupid but how are all these other people with galaxy and iPhone 6 able to send me all these pictures?

I hate making potential dates have to install kik.
