I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction here.
My issue is that when someone sends me an MMS with a photo, the resolution is reduced to a fraction of what it was when sent. However, I can send images via MMS at full resolution.
As an experiment, I sent my wife a 940KB screenshot. She has an unrooted Galaxy S5. I had her send it back to me and when I got it, it was at 27KB. I had her email me that same image and it was unaltered at 940KB. We are both with Verizon on the same account. I use an old version of GoSMS because I love it and everything else I've tried sucks. I have the MMS size limit set to 5MB.
The stock messaging app shows the same symptom even though I have the MMS limit set to the max of 300KB. I'm getting less than 10% of that. I've tried disabling and even uninstalling either app but no change.
Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
Thank you.
