Just an update..... Finally convinced Samsung to take the S5 back and release me from their contract to test the phone. I just can't stand the software. Sorry. I do appreciate the help from those who were cool and not "snobbish". Back to Apple I go......

I am for sure. Ditching this S5 and going back to a phone that actually works....... Can't send videos via text message without hosting it, are you serious? So 2005.

It's free for 3 months, then they start charging you. That is what I was told when I called them. You may want to check.

The program I am in gives me a free S5 if I use it for 6 months and allow Samsung to run an app on it during my use. They collect data such as battery and data usage. (No personal info). I have a friend who is an engineer for Samsung's phone development. If I violate the contract, I have to pay...

You have still failed to read the initial post of my thread, haven't you. Unfortunately I'm stuck with this POS for another 4 months because of the contract I am in with Samsung....... Going to try and make the best of it though.

The only difference is Apple will do them RIGHT so they WORK properly........

Probably not. My technology ecosystem is set up for Apple. Plus, not being able to EASILY send anyone in my family videos via text message is a show stopper for me. While the hardware of the phone is way better than my iPhone 5 was (can't speak about the 6) the UI and software, in my personal...

Do text message videos send over WiFi? It would make sense if they do. Both my wife and I are typically on wifi, be it at home and work. I have a 600hp super charged 2001 BMW M5 and a BMW 535xiT (wagon, my daily). I'm having boost leak issues in the 535, twin turbo inline 6. I just put a new...

Like I posted above, I KNOW for a fact I could send quality video from my iPhone to my buddy's S5 on Verizon. I did it MANY times. It has nothing to do with iMessage. EDIT: as a matter of fact, I just did it today. I was trying to send my buddy a video of an issue I was having with my car. I...

I can attest to the battery, again, 20 hours of heavy use today. Wow. That's crazy.

Exactly. Imessage or not, I could send a video to anyone. Even an S5 owner.

Are you serious? Why on earth would anyone want a phone that can't send a 15 second video without hosting it? That's a definite deal breaker for me.

Please explain to me why I can't send a 15 second video via text message. Am I missing something?

Same here. My iPhones NEVER crashed, even while being Jailbroken. My S5 has to be reset weekly. Sometimes it just stops receiving the internet. I will have 4g, full bars, but can't connect to anything. I restart the phone and it all works great.
