I don't know when this started to happen but there is something seriously wrong with GMail.
I couple of things I've noticed but cannot fix are:
1. I have a security cam that sends me pictures when it detects motion. I receive these emails in my inbox and when I open it up, I can see the thumbnails. Then I usually click on a thumbnail and it will open up the full version (about 500k) from which I can pinch to zoom etc. What it used to do is it opens a new "window" which shows the thumbnail with a progress bar below it showing it's downloading. Then when it's finished, it will show a the full version in full screen. What happens now is nothing... the "window" pops up with nothing and then after a while, I'm staring and a completely black screen. I press the back button, then click the thumbnail again, and this time it shows up.
2. What prompted me to write this post is this problem. For the past year or so, I have setup my home phone to send me the voicemails as an email attachment. The attachment can be sent as a WAV or MP3 format. It was set to WAV. When I got the email and see the attachment, I usually just click on it (not save/download it), and it would just popup a dialog and start playing the file on the phone speaker. NOW, all I get when I perform the same action is "No app can open this attachment for viewing." So I changed the setting on my home phone to send MP3 files knowing that I have MP3's on my phone and they play fine in the Google Music Player. But, again, same damn message! So this time I saved the attachment to the sdcard, opened up Music Player which found it, and played fine.
I don't quite understand how GMail could get f'ed up like this. Anyone else having these problems? How do I fix this?
Oh, if this post is in the wrong forum, please let me know.
Thanks.
