    Sending Short Videos MMS

    Thanks for the replies. Problem is I generally don't know I'm gonna send a video until after I record it. At that point I can't send. I've heard about uploading to cloud (drive) first and then sending a link. Posted via the Android Central App

    Anyone send their phone in to HTC for replacement for a warranty issue?

    I had my Verizon M8 for two weeks when the screen went totally black. Took it back and Verizon replaced within 3 days. I asked if they get a lot of returns/problems with the M8 and they said very rarely. Replacement is working great. Love my M8. Posted via the Android Central App
