    Can't send videos in a text from G2

    I have a T-Mobile G2. I tried sending a short video, about 25 seconds in a text to someone and it said it was too big. So I shortened it to less than ten seconds and it still said it was too long. Anyone have any idea how to send videos in a text from a G2? Comment here or PM me please!

    Or lower the vid quality in camcorder settings if its a vid you shot. Most default to hi-res shots and its too much to transfer over mms

    Actually I just put it on the MMS resolution and it can send up to 30 seconds. Looks like garbage though. Haha

    Yeah, it reduces the file to a video that's nearly unwatchable through MMS. I used to just upload to Youtube and share a link to it to the recipient.
