Default [Q] Is there a Fix for small mms?

I'm using my Galaxy note on t-Mobile and I was wondering if anyone found a way to get regular sized pics through mms. So far all my pics are the size of thumbnails. Is there a way to hack the app or settings so that I get the picture the original size. It even compresses the pictures that I send to myself to test it.

On AT&T I get a good sized picture but it is downsized from the full-size pic. It's about half-size.

I know with my Windows 6 phones there were settings you could change to get larger MMS pictures with AT&T. I don't know about T-Mobile.

I can change the settings in go SMS but i don't know what to change it too. All my pics are coming in at 90x120

I don't believe I am on the right thread but just in case. I am looking for a working solution to tiny thumbnail size picture messages MMS on the HTC Inspire or any HTC Android on T-mobile. Has anyone found a working solution to this? Any MMS sent to my phone is extremely small and picture messages has been sent from varying phones including my own. I sent a test pic from my phone to my phone and received a small thumbnail.
I have seen others with this similar problem on T-mobile Androids but have yet to see a confirmed solution. I have seen solutions for non android phones that utilize cab files. Apparently this is fairly common under unlocked non T-mobile phones.
Thanks a million to anyone that has found a fix!!

There is a mms app called chomp that lets you choose mms with bigger size.
