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

I use The People's Rom, on FC09, and as far as I can tell it uses a slightly themed version of the stock touchwiz message app.
If I receive a group text, I don't know who else, if anyone, the message was sent to and responses from other people are not threaded with the original message.
I've recently seen on a friend's incognito that even its crude messaging app can report all of the recipients of a message and a reply all option is available. This is also the case for the iphone.
Which messaging apps for the Epic, if any, are able to display and reply to multiple recipients of group text messages?

Can someone confirm that the CM7 and cm9 message apps do not display or reply to all text message recipients?

GoSMS has group MMS now. It shows as a group icon, rather than a single contact's picture in the text list.
Go SMS does have this feature but I've found it busted MMS after the first use. Maybe they fixed it since the initial release of it, I haven't used it since.
If you don't have it, you can long press the message and go into details. Then it will at least show you the numbers the message was sent to, but it won't match to any names even if you have them.

Honestly I think this is my most wanted feature on CM. I hate the way android handles group texts just as much as I hate go sms

I think it's rather annoying that I get responses from other people when someone sends out a group text. It's just Iphone users I've found.
When I send out a group text with Handcent and someone responds, it's just to me, not the whole group. It's not that way with the Iphone. When another Iphone users responds to a group text, everyone that got the original message also gets the response.
This "feature" sucks in my opinion but other people may want this functionality.

Yes I would love to have it. Just makes coordinating group projects at school so much easier. I absolutely understand it could be an annoyance to some though

You only notice it with iPhone users because it's Apple's 'way' of handling messages to more than one person. It's supposed to be like a chat room I guess. I'm not a big fan of it myself, but it can make it easier when dealing with a few people who have iPhones.
EDIT: And no, nothing on Android (AOSP, CM7/9, TW, etc) either displays or replies to all people the message was sent to. In fact, the way you'll know it's a 'group message' is because it comes through as MMS, so if you're without data, you won't get it. Just FYI.
Go SMS has the feature and it works really well

Do you use it frequently? The last time I used it (when they first implemented it) it worked for one reply successfully. It then crapped out and borked all MMS until I unchecked the option in the settings. Haven't tried it since. But, if you use it frequently and can still receive picture messages from others, then I might have to re-enable it as it would be nice to have.
Anyone using a ROM right now that group messaging works great on?
Handscent is just alright.

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'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.
