I have a quick question. Is there a way to force a "text" message to be sent as MMS instead of SMS using the stock messaging app? It looks like right now, if the message is all text, then only after the 6th 140 character message will it convert to MMS, otherwise it stays on SMS and splits it into 6 SMS messages. I want to choose to convert it sooner if I want. Is that possible? I know that if I insert a picture then it will convert to MMS immediately, but I want text ONLY MMS. Thanks!

Don't know why you want to force txt mssg to be sent as MMS but there is a setting in stock messaging app that combines all the split mssgs to be send as one whole mssg. Don't know if this what you want tho.

Create a google voice number. Then use that number with whoever you want to text as a group text. It'll become MMS instead of SMS for group texting.

I have a problem when people send me MMS from an email or if they use one of those "free text app" on their iPod and it uses an email to send MMS to my phone number.
I'll get the notification in the bar from the correct sender(the email address) and it'll say Picture Message. I tap on the notification and it takes me to the messaging app where its there in my list of conversations for a split second, then disapears. I can't get it to stay, or show me the message. It's like the messaging app is deleting it before I get a chance to open it.
How do I fix this?
Attached in an example notification. When I tap on it. It's in my conversation list and vanishes before I can go into that particular message.

Anyone have different timestamp when they send MMS but just before it or after you send a SMS, you get your original timestamp? Send and receive are different from SMS and MMS.. Just using stock 4.2.1 but rooted.

I'm experiencing a similar issue with my Droid DNA. In the stock Messages app, when I look at my list of recent text threads, the place where it's supposed to show the time for the most recently sent/received text always shows the time for the most recently sent/received MMS message, even if there were subsequent SMS messages. It's really annoying, and the only way I've found to fix it is to delete MMS messages, which isn't ideal.
Did you find any solution for this, short of using another messaging app?
Trying to find an app for quick replying to sms messages. I installed sMs popular from the play store and it works except the messages still show unread. Also the contact pictures don't show up. Anyone know of a better app to use?

i really liked the one from cm10 tho
Sliding Messaging is great for anyone coming from AOSP ROMs with the expanding notifications, quick reply/mark read, and breathing status bar notifications.
I had to manually edit the MMS APN settings within the app to get it fully functional, but now I'm able to send/receive MMS + group MMS perfectly.
I use GoSMS Pro, but SMS Popup works great as a standalone app.

Hi.
I'm a fairly recent convert to Android, having come from the iphone. I have 1 complaint which is all my text messages containing emoji are sent as mms. This is an issue because I have to pay for mms while sms are free. I'm using the default messaging app and SwiftKey keyboard.
Is there any way round this?

Hi does anyone know what I can do to fix my text messages that are coming in out of sync. If I send a message then the one I receive is being put ontop of my original message and its putting them in different places in the text
