I just replaced my droid based phone with an iphone 5s. I have MMS turned off to save the amount of data we are using. But now I cannot send or receive group text messages. This is a major issue for me since my kids' sports coaches use this to give us updates...etc.Â
Is there a setting I am missing? I am almost wishing I had stayed with my old phone.

I recently got an iPhone because I needed to be able to group text with my boss and coworkers. However, upon getting a brand new iPhone 4s (Verizon) I discovered that my phone still does not send or receive group texts. I have turned on group messaging so I should be receiving them. Is it something I can fix?

I had an iPhone 5 and dumped it to hop on the S6 train. However, I was receiving group messages from other iPhone users on iMessage prior. I disabled iMessage before I switched, had AT&T update the system and I still can't receive group messages and images from other iPhone users.

This is true even if my phone is connected to a Wifi network. I also cannot send picture messages if the cellular data is off. My basic phone could do these things, so why can't a smart phone?

I recently switched from an iphone 4 to an LG G3 and have been unable to consistently receive group messages from iphone users. Sometimes messages will come through, but about 95% of the time I do not receive them; however, the people in my group do receive my messages. I am aware that this is a common issue among Android users, and I have read about it extensively online for weeks now, but I still have not come up with a solution. I have tried using multiple different messaging apps including the default messaging app, chomp sms, textra, hangouts, etc. I have also turned off imessages on my old phone, typed in the code for Apples "unsubscribe" from imessage thing, and texted STOP to the number to disable imessages.
I am running the latest version of Android. I also replaced my old SIM but still no luck. MMS group message settings are all enabled on my phone too. I didn't see a post about this in regards to the LG G3 specifically so I decided to make one. I have heard suggestions of people saying to tell your iphone friends to adjust settings on their phones, but I wanted to find a solution without having to tell all of my friends to mess with their settings to accommodate me. I absolutely love everything about my new android phone after making the switch from Apple, but this one problem is seemingly large that I hope it doesn't force me to go back to an iphone.
I Have a iphone 5, just did the update, now my texts dont show up in the group message. Checked the details everything looks good, reset the network setting and turned off the phone, which did nothing.

Whenever my friends start a group message I don't receive all the messages from each member of the group. As a former iPhone user, I believe their phones still think I have an iPhone and keep sending me iMessages instead of normal texts.

I just got a Samsung s6 and can't receive group messages. neither samsung or AT&T can tell me why it won't work. I can send group messages, but don't receive any responses. is it because the other group participants have iPhones? and if so, how do I get around this?

Ive been having this problem for a while now. Many times a day i will go to send a text, and when I do the message will not send, the sending bar never complete. When this happens, my message app basically crashes. If i go home and come back, sometimes it will just to a blank message, and when i go back all the message will be cleared. I cant receive messages at this time either. Im forced to restart the phone, and rewrite the text. Once i do sometimes I will start to get the texts I missed, and other times i will come back to the crashed message app that just shows a blank new message, and will have to keep restarting it till it works again. The weird problem is that this happened on my iphone 5 too after I broke the screen. Ive been trying to fix this for a while now with no luck.

I have a 3.1 Firmware JailBroken by Blackra1n since it was released.2 weeks ago I lost the ability to send and receive text messages, I'll send them and no error shows but the person never receives them and I never receive theirs, NOT a network problem as far as a can tell. I want to restore it but am afraid of losing 3.1 and having to upgrade. THE REASON I want a jailbroken iphone IS for MYWI, sharing my internet connection with others.
