HORRIBLE Screenshots sent over SMS and other(s)

[ttwiitch]

Ever since the update to 4.1.2 my screenshots I send over SMS, What's-app and now Hangouts, they look horrible. They have lost all sharpness. All my settings are exactly the same as before that I know of but they look horrible

Anyone know the problem with this? A fix to it? Please any help would be great!

I know this exact thing happened to a friend of mine as well going from 4.0.1 to 4.1.1 on his Evo 4G LTE, but in the contrary, my S3 was perfectly fine on 4.1.1 till now on 4.2.1

I have the same issue too since the update. I've tried doing factory restarting my phone many times. Don't know what else to do. I guess we're the unlucky ones.

Are you sure it doesn't have anything to do with the compression of the file when sent?

It was fine before, it always compressed but never to the point of what it looks like now. Real bad....

Before the update, images sent were not compressed to a point of distortion. I tested many times with my phone compared to my girlfriends phone (she didn't do the update since I've had minor issues) and confirmed my suspicion.

So how can we correct this?! :-(

Pray to the s3 gods? I haven't a clue. I've learned to deal with this issue.

I use GoSMS, and was able to fix this. Try going Settings, then MMS settings and make sure "preserve image resolution" is checked.

I used to have go sms, but I've had to many issues with text going out to the wrong people. Not just I having the issue, but friends I have had it too.

My image resolution (pics I take) for the most part is perfect on any SMS app...the problem is just with screenshots
