[Q] Group chat not working? - T-Mobile HTC One (M8)

Does anyone else have this problem of the group chat not working properly? Im in a group chat on the stock messaging app and each time i get a message, it rather sends it to me individually rather then in the group chat itself. And it also says something weird like "Couldn't download MMS. Touch to download again. Size 1KB. Expires: ......". If i try sending a message it gives me a red exclamation point also. After awhile i get the message but like a day later. Not really the point of group texts lol. I've tried using hangouts but that gives me the same problem. Could it be the APN?

It could be the APN partly. I've seen that if I use IPv4/IPv6 rather than just the IPv6 it doesn't download or send properly. As far as group messaging make sure it's enabled in the texting app, settings, mms settings, group messaging.

[Q] Can't send message right now. Too many many unsent multimedia messages

The thread title is the error I'm getting. This, from what I can tell, is not the wifi issue.
I'm stock, rooted and I use GoSMS.
I have noticed recently that when I try to send a picture message that is the large clear resolution that is shows up pending for a long time and eventually wont send, probably due to it's large size. To resolve this, I have started doing the smallest resolution, and thus smallest size when I know I'm going to be sending it to someone.
This works to make sure it get sent, if it decides it can. I get the "Can't send message right now. Too many many unsent multimedia messages" To try and fix it I close GoSMS and all other apps, but usually it takes a reboot to get it to go through. There shouldn't be any messages trying to send, as they will usually give an error saying the message couldn't be sent. I don't like to delete messages so I have one thread with 8000+ messages, mix of sms and mms, so going through and deleting all of the sent messages isn't really an option.
I cannot replicate the problem right now to test and see if using the stock messaging app would fix the problem.
Is there some folder or something that stores the pending outgoing messages that I could look at and see the "unsent multimedia messages" are that cause this error?
Is there some other underlying issue, some kind of buffer, relationship between received mms and sending, or anything else like this?
Any help would be appreciated.

group text message

so ive tried handcent, gosms and pansi and all seem to have the same problem.
When ever i try to send a group text message i get an undelivered error message. Now weather its because a contacts number is incorrect or what ever other reason no one else in the group will get the message.
Is there a limit to how many recipients i can send a message? On my evo i couldnt add any more than 40.
This is getting rather frustrating especially being that i am pass my 14 day trial period on this phone. Im starting to think i shouldve waited for the HTC One to come out
Try Group SMS free. It allows you to send through your normal carrier or a Google voice account....which is free texting. I use it all the time!
Hope this helps.
ok ive downloaded the app mentioned but cant figure out how to forward a message. I tried copying from the phones messenger app but wont let me paste, and this app wont allow me to view my messages.

Can't receive picture mms

I can't receive any of the photos I'm send. I'm using GoSMS as my sms app and when i get a photo it gives me an option to download but when I click it, it just downloads then eventually stops I have AOKP 4.2.1 with the 3.0.30-Underwear.kernel. I tried disabling and enabling auto receive on the stock app, and checking if the apn is correct. I searched the forums and even google for the past day and it still isn't working.. Is there anything I can do ? If not then is there any ROM that you suggest I should use..
Also, how come my stock sms app refuses to open if i have one thread with like 20k messages. I have a friend with the older nexus and his phone is fine..
The message says
"Message not downloaded
Select to review the message and try again"
You need to change/manually input apn settings in the gosms app to match the phone
There is also that fill user Agent manually thing, do i need that? :S
Hmm, okay now I can send them and people actually get the photo and not a link but now I dont get any message at all lol. Like it doesnt even ask me to download it.
Bump? Still not getting mms LOL

[Q] Hangouts MMS Problems

So I have read a lot of phones and users are having issues with hangouts MMS feature. I happened to be one of them. Other threads suggest changing the APN settings within the hangouts app. Was hoping someone who has no problems with it would post their settings.
For the record I am stock 4.4.2 rooted w/ TWRP. The exact problems I have are delayed reception of MMS, and trouble sending periodically.
Bump, is anyone else having these issues?
There was a crash of some kind this morning on the Google Hangouts servers.

This is an on going issue for me. Only with MMS messages. For example me and my SO will be on a group MMS together and she will get the message an 10 to 20 min before me and I won't receive any other messages from the group unless I send a message after them. Sending a message often fails or takes much to long.
Would you mind posting your APN settings in hangouts if you don't have these issues?

I don't mind, but I don't use messages or hangouts.

No worries then.

Where is group messaging???

This feels like such a noob question but I'm at a loss. I know group messaging has been baked into the latest release but it doesn't seem to be working right.
I have the group messaging option turned on in my settings and I can send a group text just fine. But when I receive a group message it looks like a normal text message. I can't see who the other recipients are and so I can't respond to anyone but the person who sent that text.
I've noticed the same thing on several different S3 phones running 4.3 so I feel like either I am doing something wrong or "group messaging" doesn't work the way I expect it to. Are we only able to send group texts but not receive them? What gives?
Thanks.
Anyone??

I have the Verizon version of the S3, so I'm not sure if they behave the same. I went into my messing app, hit the menu to get settings and have the option for "Group Conversations" "Send messages as group conversations by default" checked...mine works just fine. When I get a group text, I have an option to switch it from MMS to SMS and have it be an individual text.
