I'm using the standard SMS app and the main flaws with Android is group SMS! When I send a group SMS out and someone replies that persons SMS becomes its own thread. Its very annoying and being a current iPhone user I gotta say I'm really disappointed that Jelly Bean hasn't fixed this yet.
So do we have tweak for this? I'd rather stick with the default SMS instead of Handcent or any of the other alternative SMS apps.

Don't think there's any way to fix it with the stock Messaging app.
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.

Is there an alternative to the stock messaging app because It pulls each group message into individual messaging. Also when I send a group message it ends up sending each person an individual message. I am running Jellytime R26.2. Thanks in advance!
There are many other messaging apps on playstore. Handcent and go sms are popular. I've used both and they are good.

Can anyone make the STOCK messaging app (UniMessagebin.apk) NOT convert the message into MMS when including emojis using the STOCK keyboard? Like GoSMS Pro and other 3rd party messaging apps? I really like the stock apps because they look professional (imo).

Is there any way to get Google hangouts to pop up on the lockscreen when you get a text the same way the stock text message works? Like the circle with the message icon and number.

No one knows a mod?

I would also like to see this. Just updated to 4.3 on Verizon S3 and it doesn't work with Hangouts. The driving mode also doesn't read the text since it's in Hangouts.
Hangouts just began to be integrated with SMS... give it some time to make it the go-to feature for texting, etc. Until then, you have a bunch of apps that integrates fully into the original Messaging app like Halo, Popup Notifier, Textra, Handcent, and even Facebook Messenger. I'm sure Hangouts will reach this point but until then, try other apps.
Facebook messenger no longer does SMS AFAIK. That was taken out. Hangouts is cool, especially for group messaging, but I personally couldn't stand it being white. Luckily dark horse makes inverted apps.
One of my main gripes with hangouts as well as most other SMS apps is when your phone doesn't have service or in airplane mode...when you restore service the text messages you receive aren't timestamped properly. It stamps them like you just received them...and not when they actually were sent.
