Anyone using a ROM right now that group messaging works great on?
Handscent is just alright.

Apparently you can't send texts to groups in the messaging app of CM10? If it's there I can't find it. I mean I can find groups in the contacts app, but can't send any of them texts.
Edit...this started as a question but after no answers, I'm left to assume group texting is not possible with the stock CM10 SMS app. Anyone recommend Handcent or Go SMS on CM10?

Update...a great workaround from Elixis...a free app ChompSms. It's icon even looks almost like the stock. Love it so far. Be sure to also get the free emoji add on for Chomp. It has over 400 symbols.

I'd like to move away from using gosms because it kills the performance on my phone whenever group messages are sent. While looking for an alternative, I saw this thread...

Where it looks like there is official support for it now? I'm hoping there is a way to get this on my phone without having to switch to a custom ROM
On TW ROM's Group messaging does not work I have tried all the AOSP Messaging ports for Touchwiz, and Group doesn't work at all.
Even Touchwiz itself doesn't have Group messaging at all, which is Samsung's fault, for whatever reason not to include that.
Two options. Run GO SMS or Handcent on a TW ROM, or move over to CM10.1 ROM's which of course do have Group and Quick reply fully working, stock.

Ok. Yeah I'm not liking gosms because it's a performance hog whenever I get group messages
Would moving to something like paranoid android be ok too? It would support it?

Yes. All CM10.1 ROM's are 4.2 based, which has Group messaging and Quick reply, standard default in the stock text app. May have to go into settings to enable Group, but its just one box to click, and your good.
Blows my mind, that Samsung left out Group messaging in Touchwiz. To some people like myself, that's a very important feature.
And GO SMS and Handcent suck, big resource hogs, and memory eaters.

I've been using Gosms pro for a little while now but have been getting frustrated with the slowness. However, there is nothing I can do because I need group messaging. (This is when you send a message and every gets it and everyone in the message gets a reply not individual messages though)I guess my question is when is 4.2 expected to hit the sph-l900 because it has group messaging and if it's a while then any suggestions for what I can do?
Ya go really gets sluggish after a day or so. I would say try any cm10 based Rom or nowizaosp rom. They have the 4.2 mms.apk

Can you send, reply and receive messages in one thread with this phone?

I'm not on the stock firmware anymore, but I don't believe so. I think threaded group messaging (as MMS) is a feature of 4.2(.2?).
Darn, thanks. I left Att a while ago to go to Verizon n thankfully I can do group messaging with the stock messaging app on the note II. I was very interested in the LG pro but want the group messaging without having to use a different app like Go SMS which would make my phone lag terribly.

Heads up, you can. While it's not going to be as fluid as iOS' s group messaging, if you hold on to the message that is an MMS you can reply to all. It'll create a new thread with all the recipients, even if you don't have them in your contacts. Sadly, just like the Samsung group messaging, the messages won't be in a single thread and all the texts you'll receive will be from each individual contact.

I am on 4.4 currently and am part of a group message, but would like to go to stock however when I did try before and set Hangouts to use mms for group message it didn't work and they still came through in individual threads.
