Scott :::
OK i have found out it is your rom setup that causes the mms recived to make them small in size when downloaded tot he phone. I have gotten a Bare 5.0.69.44 Arcsoft installed on the phone and even resetup a new network dial and it has fixed the problem.
I have even used the original network config that you have setup and it works fine. It seem threw my testing that the problem is in your arcsoft or settings for mms. But the problem is fixed now. If you would like the version i have let me know ill post it and you can change the settings for VZW, Sprint, whoever.
Also your rom works for Alltel customers aslo. I have been testing each one and the only thing you have to change is the mms server url and all works beautiful. So if you would like to add that to the support list
thanks
Suggestion ::
Dont know if anyone has every asked but maybe some tracker software if phone is lost or stolen cooked in?
