Just curious if anyone knows how to reply to an MMS message with multiple people. When I reply I send the text to the original sender not the group.
Appreciate the help.

I noticed that even when I have the "When replying, include body" option ticked in the messaging options, it wont include the body of an original messgae when replying to any messgae in my SMS/Text Messages inbox. It works well with my other messaging (email) accounts, and even when replying to Sent Items messages in my Text Messages account (of course, it doesn't make sense to reply to your own mesage) but always does not include the original message's body when replying to a message in my Text Messages inbox.
Anybody knows how I could get this to work?
Thanks.
I have a problem, I switch to cm6 ROM and I lost the ability to send group text messages. I need to be able to send group messages for work. Are there any reliable/quality programs out there that will enable me to send group text messages since I no longer have sense capabilities.
Thank you in advance.
Hello. I need some help with group texting on the G2x. You see all my friends friends have iPhones when the receive a group text then they can respond to the whole group.
Let's say person A texts person B, on person B's iphone he sees a text message from person A in his conversation list. Now lets say after that person A texts person B again along with person C,D,E, and F as well. Now on person B's iphone is a new thread listing person A,C,D,E separate from the original thread between A and B. Also, if person B replies to person A in the group thread then everyone else in that thread also receives the reply. It is sort of like a group conference call but for text messages.
Now when I receive a group text message from someone, I only see the original sender of the message not the other recipients nor can I reply to everyone in the group. My messages only go to the Original sender.
Is there a way to allow my phone to do this?

Have you tried 3rd party SMS apps like GO SMS Pro?
MIUI has something like this. When you text a group of people at once, it keeps everything in 1 thread. I don't know if your phone will send out multiple texts to everyone.
See on the iPhone it isn't really text messages... (I don't think). Once you send a group text, it converts it to a data IM. It still shows up in the Messaging program, but it isn't SMS.
To do something like this strickly with SMS, you'd be sending out 5-6 messages at a time every time you sent a comment. If EVERYONE's phone sent a reply SMS to EVERYONE, it would work. But I think the iPhones convert it over to data.

That's exactly what it is. It's iMessage. It only works between iPhones. Guaranteed if the other person does a group text to C,D,E,F, B will see all the group members because A sent B the message using an iPhone and B had an iPhone, but let's say that C doesn't have an iPhone, they won't know it was a group text.
Annoying, but meh.
Has the ability to send and receive group MMS been brought to Android yet?
I can send mass texts fine, but participating in a group MMS has been elusive to me thus far, and thought I'd ask here, because I'm not sure where else to ask.
I've read about Handcent and tried to do it, but it didn't seem to work.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Same issue and its super annoying. Got a couple of fantasy football leagues and the **** talking has started. I just get a bunch of single texts that I can only do a reply all. Doing this just sends a single text to each person. Is it still broken, or is there a 3rd party app that can handle this. I tried handcent but it would thread them under anonymous and I could only reply to the person who originally sent the message.
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
