I tried Jelly Belly to see if the group messaging worked, but no dice. I can send to a group of iphone users but when I receive the messages they just come in the individual threads. Is group messaging working / figured out yet? If so, is there an apk floating around to download? Thanks!

I need some help. I switched to a Rom without sense and have lost the ability to send out group text message. I need to be able to send out group texts for work. Do I have any options other than switching to a rom with sense?
Are you currently using the stock SMS that comes with the ROM?
Try one from the market, such as Handcent. It is free and offers group messaging options as well as many other things that the stock one may not.
I am using handcent. I need a messaging app that holds its own contact groups, not through Google as stock froyo does not pull up groups in the contacts list. Sense brought it up when I had a rom with sense.
I found an app called cintacts groupu that works.
Does anyone have a fix for group messaging on android. I've tried all the third party apps but none of them truly put replies into a single thread. Handcent claims to do it but it lags a lot and my group msgs to iPhone users do not send.
I want to be able to send group messages and have replies come back as one thread.
Pansi is a good app but does not allow users to reply in same thread.
Hopefully google or android will work out a solution.
One thing i would like to see in ROMS is Group Texting and Emoji. I see the new rom Liquid Smooth added group mms threading. Now is it possible to add Emoji throughout the phone like IPhones? Like i know i can download Chomp SMS or Go SMS and then download the emoji addon, but the emoji addon only works in the SMS app.. I cant use the Emojis for apps like instagram. Is that possible or do Devs have to port that into their ROMS? Thanks.

I second that! I'm a total noob at ROMs and stuff but I've been able to decompile the SecMms.apk and other system apps and I've discovered there is code for both threaded group mms and emojis. At this point I'm too noob to figure out what I need to do to enable at least the threaded group mms but I totally second this!
Bump please!
There was an emoji keyboard that developers were able to hack out of the jb codes. There was a zip uploaded to XDA, I had that a while ago. Basically when you want to type, you'd change to that JB emoji keyboard and there you have it! can post anywhere..

If its a group of friends, try kik or Voxer. That's what we use. They'd all need the app. There are some that work on all platforms too....not sure which.

Group texting is the standard for normal cell phone users and should of been included in android long ago. Bizzare that its not. Telling any friends I want to group chat with to install and sign up for some app is not the right or easy option.

its on every ROM in here except TW Roms they dont support it but you can see them if not then just download and app called Chomp sms and it replace you text app with that one and it has all the bells and whistles you want also if you do install make sure to uncheck the notifications on your stock messaging app so you dont get double the notify
I think Google added the code in JB 4.2 to natively support group messaging. The recent updates for the SG2 models won't do group threads. If you use a a 4.2 rom then it should already be in there without needing a secondary program. I'm running Slim and it works fine.
Is group messaging. like that on the Verizon S4, not available on the T-Mobile version?
Group messaging like we're you select more than one contact? Because I did that earlier today and didn't know if they replied everyone would see it
It's works for me. Selecting more then one contact coverts it to a mms group message. Replying also seems to go to everyone in the group. I only tested the reply portion with three GS4's though.

I am having an issue where one contact of the group will have their replies pulled out to a new thread.. The other 3 contacts in the group work as normal group. This happens in the stock app only.
In go sms it works fine (not a huge fan of the app tho).
Any ideas why this is happening?

the messaging app that comes installed, is it not good for group messaging? I sent a group message, but everyone got a separate message and i got separate responses back. Is there no way to set this up? if not what app do you all use?
thanks
Next SMS is great! ?
