Receiving a group sms makes a different individual message thread become locked in an "unread" state even if no individual text message has been received. Reading the Individual thread doesn't allow it to become "read". The only work around I have found is to long press the thread and mark unread then tap the thread to make the thread into a "read" the thread.
This is not a critical bug but its an annoying bug. Maybe I'll have to root and slim my phone.

I'm coming from a symbian background and have ordered a G1 recently. Been looking in the market place for a privacy application to screen and filter incoming and outgoing calls and sms's to defined numbers. I can not find anything that meets my requirements so am prepared to fund the development of one. (there are several available for symbian).
I've posted a job on elance and have had a couple of replies saying this is not possible in Android - I am suprised to say the least and was wandering if anyone here thought otherwise
heres the description:
------------
Job Description:
To provide an application to filter incoming and outgoing calls and sms. Effectively enabling 'private' communications from the phone.
For pre-determined numbers all incoming calls and sms can be filtered. sms notification disabled and moved to secure area. Calls rejected as busy.
All traces of incoming or outgoing calls and sms that are related to the numbers in the list are hidden.
The app should have the same functionality as Best Private Conversation for Symbian :

Will also require trial version time limited.

Appreciate any feedback

The android supports sending call directly to voicemail, uner the contact info of the person. Also there are apps that cam move sms to a blacklisted folder, a trash can of sorts, you don't get a notification of this I believe. Chompsms has this functionality.
Also this is posted in the wrong forum. Please post in the application and games forum, there is a request thread there. This is for android rom/build development only

Apologies for posting in the wrong forum - maybe an admin can move this post for me...
Please ignore this thread
I have started a new thread in the correct forum
Hello,
I noticed an issue when receiving text messages from one person with multiple recipients. I'm not able to respond to everyone on the list. Only the original sender.
Even if I begin a new text thread by sending a message to multiple people, when they respond to everyone, it will begin separate threads from each person.
Is there a setting I am missing or do I need to download a 3rd party app?
Thanks!
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?
Is it possible to make the original sent mass text message appear in each individual's conversation threads rather than one thread with a group of names? Right now I have to send each person a personal text message for this to be possible. My reasoning is because when I get a reply, I want to see my sent text and then their reply text in each person's conversation. Is there an app or something that can do this?
Is there a way to do this??
Another question: I am also wondering if there is a way to automatically detect incoming messages as a group text. Right now I have to manually go into my Go SMS app's settings and turn on Group Messaging. But by then it is too late. when the Group Messaging setting is off, and I recieve a group text , the sender and all the replies all go onto their own individual conversations, and I have to reply to each person individually.
This is the stock "Messages" app version 1.121.492-rcs-Rel in the Moto G stylus 5g XT2131-1. This app is super glitchy and annoying the &@$# outta me.
First off, my contacts transferred correctly including message history but some were missing names.
2. Everytime I manually save a new contact I'm told "Contact not saved." However it is saved!
3. The messages app will prompt me to save a Group text with a title every time I respond to the already established thread. I have to enter a title and save before my response is sent. Now I have 12 group threads for the same damn convo.
4. Even though all settings are correct, I'm receiving read receipts checkmarks and see when people are typing and they see mine.
I'm running Android 11 build RRES31.Q3-60-47-2-2-2 on stupid T-Mobile.
Anyone else?
My only suggestion is to ditch the stock app and use Textra
