Video Too Large To View On This Device ??? - Page 2

easiest thing to do would be to login to your sprint pic mail account on your pc, and download the video from there. do you have arcsoft installed? if not, i would look into that. the stock sprint picmail app is complete garbage.

as for sending a video, again... arcsoft should be able to handle that. there's a reg hack to allow up to 5mb files, anything beyond that and you'll have to send an email.

you tried to send a video through what email service provider on your phone? gmail doesn't have tiny file size limitations, so i would sign up for a gmail account if you haven't already...but seriously, who doesn't have a gmail account lol

well, the thing was he didn't send it thru email he just went to the video and sent it i guess thru sprint pic mail so when I got it it was a 4kb jpeg file. So should he have sent it as email to #@pm.sprint.com? or something else?

my friend claims he sent the video to somebody else that same way and they watched it with no problem. wonder why it didn't work on my phone...

yea, if you dont have arcsoft, you need it. but what was the other phone your friend sent it to? ive had the problem with people sending pics or vids from "dumbphone" to smartphone, so it could be some sort of wierd compatability issue...but ive had my girl send me vids

from her instinct and they work just fine...does your friends phone say how big the file is? as its converting it to a jpg, id think that your friends phone is changing it to that when it sends.
