Group messaging on stock messaging app - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

So I was under the impression that the group messaging feature was somewhat like that of the iphones and I found out that this is not the case. When I tested this feature out by texting my moms iphone and a text free number it came up on my end as a group message and when texted myself back using my moms iphone it came up as an individual message. Im going to go out on a limb and guess that it should not be like this at all. Is this a bug or something? Or does anyone else have this problem?

No one else is getting there group messages pulled into separate threads when getting a text message?

I'm also experiencing this bug

SMS problems?

When reply to a message sometimes my phone will send the message to someone otherthan who i am replying to. This has happened at least 4 or 5 since since I got my charge a few months ago. It's happened on stock SMS and GoSms.
Has this happened to anyone else and does anyone know the solution?

Never heard of this problem. You are completely stock right?
Could be that the message you got was a group message. I've heard that some VZW phones will respond to all recipients of a group sms/mms message, though I don't know what phones or when it will happen.
I'm running humble 5.0 right now but I do remember it happening on gummy too. I'm 100% positive it wasn't a group message too.
Another problem I've had is that I'll try deleting a thread of messages on stock messenger but it will delete a different thread.

[Q] Handcent Text Message

I'm using handcent to send text messages. Sometimes the message does not send, but i don't receive any notification. Is anybody else having the same issue?
If you read the market reviews, a lot of people are having the same issues.
I used handcent because it had the ability to turn screen on when you receive sms. I stopped using it because people would randomly stop texting me back and I was getting annoyed... Turned out it was me. :banghead:

Yeah. the same go with me. I'm like wth? Why no one respond?
I am having the same issue with the OEM text message. Is it the phone or handcent in regard to the problem?
Nope, no issues with stock messaging. Maybe they just don't want to to talk you

CM10 MMS bug

I keep seeing mentions of MMS bugs in CM10 on the VzW Galaxy S3. I've been running their nightlies for the last week or so and have yet to see any problems, inbound or outbound.
Can someone elaborate on this bug?

I'm currently experiencing two issues with MMS in the 8/23 build. Firstly, I can't send any text that is more than one page long. And I've tried with the stock app, Handcent and Go SMS. And secondly, I would say that roughly one out of every eight texts I send will not actually make its way to the recipient. It will say sent, but it won't actually go anywhere. Not even into some text limbo where it shows up three hours later. Just gone. It's pretty irritating, to say the least.

Oh, also. I can send and receive picture texts just fine. Thought I should mention that.

How do TouchWiz users cope with NO group texting?

One thing that kills me about stock touchwiz is the lack of group texting. I don't want to switch to a 3rd party SMS app, but I am thinking that is what I have to eventually do.

Im sure there is a way to load TW messenger to work on other roms. But how many people actually continue to have group conversations thru text?
Group texting like send one text to multiple people? I do it all the time even with mms's

I wish stock mms had the capability, but it's not a huge deal to me because Verizon messages works very well. You can even disable stock and Verizon messages will still work.

Ya Im confused too, touchwiz mms allows you to send to multiple people. I guess they mean keeping it all grouped cause the touchwiz one replies all come in to seperate threads?
If your rooted you can switch out the stock mms app for a aosp one, i.e. themed and stock

it isnt really "coping" when I have never wanted to group text. facebook tells all my friends what i want them to know about...
It drives me nuts when I get those group texts from iPhone users. I love how android does it, separate threads

Thank you. One iPhone user sends you a group text and then you gotta get bugged by every other iPhone user replying to the original sender. One of the most annoying things in the world. Sad thing is, they think it's cool.

I guess it's handy to the sender. I assume they haven't been on the other end though.
Is it even in option on a "stock" android phone. I've had moto, htc and now Samsung, I don't ever remember it being an option.

I can't stand the stock msg app. GoSMS Pro is so much better imo.

It separates the threads to each individual who responds. So if the group is 6 people, I get 6 different texts from 6 different people. HTC never had this problem! Coming from the rezound. Lol

It is standard now on aosp 4.2. I used to think it was annoying, but now after using it with friends, I see why it is useful personally.

It is honestly driving my crazy! I HATE tw does not support this and it is really annoying. A lot of my friends use group messaging and If i were to reply to the messages being sent I would have to reply to each individual person seeing how group messages appear in separate threads for me.

I dont think those links really help. From my understanding the framework has to be changed and it is only fixed in android 4.2 anyways so im not sure those links are to helpful sadly =(
Use a different messaging app if you don't like the stock.

Ok I have a question. I tried using GOSMS and When I tested out the group messaging feature my friends had told me that they had gotten the message as an individual message towards them and that it did not appear to them as a proper group message. Is there a certain feature inside gosms that you have to have checked in order to get this to work properly?

Well yes I have and I honestly could not spot a thing about group messaging. I could of easily missed something seeing how I tend to do that at times but I checked several times and still was un able to find a setting related to it.

[Q] Unable to remove SMS limit on rooted Nexus 5. There's gotta be a solution?!

Hi guys,
I keep getting messaging is sending too many messages as per the 100 per hour limit.
I've tried many different solutions like using SQLite Editor and still no resolve.
Can someone please help?

What's your carrier? What SMS app are you using?
Mabey try using EvolveSMS?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
theres an option in the default messaging apps settings for limiting the number of text messages. i changed my limit from 100 to 10000
I'm curious about this. How is it even possible to send 100 sms messages in an hour? Are you sending out one to many recipients? Or just that many single texts? Maybe I'm just old?

i dont text much, barely any at all, but 100 is easy to reach, especially if youre having a good convo. anyways, it counts all texts, both sent and received messages.
I'm unable to find this on hangouts or textra.
For those asking about the carrier, it's an android 'feature' which is really irritating.
I'm really surprised I cannot find any fixes after googling high and low!
