MMS Messages recieved as slideshow?

[ArkAngel06]

Does this happen for anyone else? I'm using chompsms, but the regular messages app does this too. It's worse on chompsms though, because when you try to view it it only shows for like 1ms, making it unviewable. The regular messages app shows it for about one second before automatically returning to the conversation screen.

Any fix for this?

I find it a minor annoyance, as well, but I haven't found how to turn it off, yet, if it's even possible. All I know is that if you tap on the MMS image it will "pause" the slideshow so that you can view the image longer.

yea i think its standard. I changed the slideshow playback speed to slow to make the picture stay up for awhile.

Gallery > settings > slideshow > playback speed slow

Hmmm. That setting doesn't affect chomps picture viewer... its only some messages, a lot come through perfectly, not as slideshows or anything.

It's weird.

Have you tried opening a video mms yet? I get an error any time I try to.

it does the same thing on Handcent as well. it's not that much of a pain in the ass to me.

yeah, I don't like this slideshow either! I'm now using Handcent and the photo are not showing up as a slideshow for me.

And how about the size of the images?
I have a friend with an Evo as well, and the pictures he sends get reduced to small images- seems like such a waste to have a tiny image on the massive screen.

This is my gripe. The evo reduces pictures so small before sending them mms. We need a fix.

Tap the pic and hit pause to leave it up. Annoying though.
