HTC Droid Eris :: MP4 Email Attachment
Jan 27, 2010I receive MP4 attachments from my Linksys G54 camera but Droid plays the file on rare occasions. Sometimes it plays and other times it will not play even the same file.

I receive MP4 attachments from my Linksys G54 camera but Droid plays the file on rare occasions. Sometimes it plays and other times it will not play even the same file.
After installing BBeast I can't open the attachment on my Email..
Anyone know how to fix this?
I received my first zip file through gmail today and for the life of me I can't figure out how to download it? All gmail gives me is a preview option which if I click brings up Astro file manager, but won't go any farther?

I lurk here a lot and have learned tons for sure from reading, reading, reading sometimes till the wee hours. Three things I still can't seem to figure out. 1. Opening an attachment in an email: When a pic or doc file comes in I can't seem to view it. I click "view attachment" it shows the name of the file and the size but does not open the file or download it for me to see. What am I doing wrong? Some kind of settings issue maybe? 2. Deleting a file: I downloaded a pdf file off the internet and now I wish to delete it. Menu does not show an option to delete when I am viewing thde file with pdf viewer. Any ideas? 3. Voice email: I love the voice texting, voice emailing, etc but when I open an email to compose new and use the speak option to speak the name of a current contact (who has an email as part of his contact info) it does not try to auto fill that like it would if I hand texted it in. In other words, say I begin a new email and in the TO box I click the microphone and speak john smith. It types his name in but does not recognize him from contacts and fill in his email address like it does if I start to type j o h n s m by hand. I must be doing something wrong here too maybe?
View 4 Replies View RelatedWhen I would get an MMS slideshow on my Blackberry, it would auto-play and I could view it no problem. When I get an MMS slideshow on the Eris it shows up as a text message with an attachment and each slide is a separate image inside that attachment and I have to click on the initial attachment then I see a list of all of the images and I have to click on each one individually to see it, then back out of that image and rinse and repeat. Is there anyway to get this to work right?

I need to be able to have the android email app choose my app to download or open that specific file type. I can't figure out how to set up an intent filter that would let me do that though. Anyone know how this is done?

public static void sendFile(Context context) { File exportDir = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory(), "mydir"); if (!exportDir.exists()) { exportDir.mkdirs(); } String csvFile = exportDir + "/file.csv"; File file = new File(csvFile); if(file.exists()) { Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "CSV file"); sendIntent.setType("text/csv"); //sendIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION); //sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file://" + Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/mydir/file.csv")); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file:///sdcard/ mydir/file.csv")); context.startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent, "Send CSV file")); } else { Util.displayToast(context, R.string.no_csv_file); } }
I am trying to send an email using native email client on android phone. I have tried following ways to add an attachment to the mail.
Method 1 Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sendIntent.setType("image/jpeg"); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse("file://sdcard/ abc.jpg"));
Method 2
Sending the image as body content
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "<HTML><BODY><b><IMG SRC= "data:image/jpeg;base64," + <imagepath> + ""alt = "pleaseview this image"/></b></BODY></HTML>");
I can successfully attach the image manually but when I tried to attach and send it programmatically the mail was sent without attachment.

I'm creating an app that has an "export" feature which converts the user's data into a CSV file, and allows the user to send it as an attachment to somebody (presumably themselves).
The CSV file is created successfully, but when I try to send the email, I encounter a problem. The device looks like it is going to send the email with the appropriate attachment, but when the email is received... there is no attachment at all...
Here is the code I am using to send the email:

I have built a test android app and signed it successfully and then sent it to someone to test via email. They click on the attachment in the email on their android phone and get a parsing error.

(I have a ZTE Blade running Android 2.3.7 on a Cyanogenmod ROM 7.10.)
I have two questions.
- what is the maximum permisable file size for attachments;
- can the file size limit be increased in anyway?
I cannot send an email with an attachment using the Gmail app on this phone. I tried to send three different photographs to three different email addresses and it failed every time. Emails without attachments go perfectly every time.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI just copy the code from http://www.openintents.org/en/node/121 to test if I can send .txt or .mp3 file as email attachment, Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND); sendIntent.setType("audio/mp3"); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, "file:///sdcard/mysong.mp3"); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Subject"); startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent, "Title:"));
But I got an error said that No applications can perform this action. My android sdk is cupcake1.5, and I have already set up my gmail acount in Email application. Anyone knows why? If I set the type as "*/*"(sendIntent.setType("*/ *");), it can launch the Email activity but with no attachment.
I wanted to know what is the maximum size of the file that we can attach with email in android? Or is the attachment limit completely dependent on E-mail that we have configured?
View 1 Replies View Relatedwhat the maximum file size is I can attach to an outgoing email using Gmail? I know Gmail allows 20 megabytes, but is there a size limit I can attach from the Hero? I have had the phone tell me a file is too big to attach, but it was well under 20 megs.

I currently have a BB Storm1, but am thinking of getting the Eris today. I use my BB for both business and pleasure, and would need to have at least 2 email accounts on the phone. Is this a possibility (I assume it is, but I just need some confirmation). Also, does anyone have any pros/cons that I should know about the Eris? I really hate my my storm at this point, and think I am ready to leave BB entirely. Would love some thoughts.
