Hey all.
Iv recently subcribed to facebook sms alerts and its working great.
However the messages i get sent are from slightly different numbers
eg. 32230004 or 32230010, the 3223 is the facebook address but the 0010 is the message number.
This is screwing up my threaded messages as its threading each individual message instead of grouping them.
Is there anyway i can thread a range of numbers so all the facebook messages get grouped eg 3223**** or 32230000-32239999
Thanks in advance

I've come across an burdening issue sending a txt with multiple recipients. Though the grouped chat style text messaging is an incredible advantage, there are some cons and i'm wondering if they can be fixed somehow.
Because of the chat style text messaging, your first outgoing message gets coped to your inbox. Is there any way for the first outgoing message to NOT be copied to your inbox?
This poses an issue for when you are sening a mass/group text message. For example, if i send out "Happy New Year" to 50 people in one text, i get 50 outgoing copies in my inbox.
Suggestions?

use an app called group sms.
if you go to your sent items folder for sms and delete that message, it will remove it from all the recipients.. easiest fix i found
I’ve been getting a few group texts from friends and coworkers but I don’t understated how it is helpful and it did not seem like the M7 did it like this. My main issue is that something seems to be wrong as group texts don’t seem to be playing the notification sound and are not setting the text notification icon at the top of the screen. So I open the messages app to find bold unread messages and multiple threads for single accounts because it creates a new thread every time that user sends me a group text with a different combination of people in the group.
Bump. Anyone, seen this?
Hi there, I am currently having a bit of an urgent dilemma.
Basically, I'm wanting to send messages to a group of people, however every time I get this message propping up that there is a large number of messages.
Additionally, how on earth are you even meant to send group messages to people that you have grouped under the same group in contacts??? I'm lost with this new GUI.
Someone PLEASE save me.
inb4 search the forums - i definitely did
using the default essaging app on a google pixel on verizon.
when i initially send or receive a group text, i'm clearly in a group text. but my replies to that thread get divided and sent out as individual replies effectively taking me out of the group text. the other recipients therefore cannot tell to what i am replying. the HTC One didn't do this - group messages were group messages, individual messages were individual messages.
what am i not understanding about how to reply in and stay in group texts?
thanks!
Its the way it was designed, it should say it when writing a new group text.
'This is a mass text, Each recipient will receive an SMS messages from you, Replies will appear in individual conversions.'

To fix this click on the three dots in the top right corner, go to settings, then click on advanced. The first option should be group messaging and you can change this to use group mms instead of a mass text.
Shows how much I've use a group message lol . thanks for info
I have an s8 (SM- g950U). I have Android Messages and Android Contacts installed instead of native Samsung messaging and contacts. When a client initiates a group text, I need to recieve that text but would like to block all the responses from the others on the group text. I have these numbers blocked but they still come through.
Has anyone else had problems blocking individuals responding to a group text?
