Group conversation out of order? - Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I always use a group conversation to talk with my friends. It's always sent the messages in order, no problem. Now mine are stacking and I'm receiving my friends minutes after they've actually sent them. Instead of seconds. I can't say that I did anything to my phone which would alter my messages
Any clues guys? Thanks

Anyone?

Unable to send text to multiple recipients

So, this morning, i tried to send out a text message to more than one person asking for email addresses. After waiting over and hour and only getting one response, i sent an individual message to someone that didn't respond. Well, they said they never got anything. So i did some playing around with sending test texts, and it turns out that anyone listed after the first person is not receiving any messages. This worked before and for some odd reason just stopped working?
Any direction someone can point me in? i'm not using a custom messaging program.
Worse come to worse and i need to set the phone back to factory defaults, how do i do that?
nevermind, got tired of not being able to send out multiple texts so i set it to factory defaults.
found an xml contacts backup so i didn't lose any contacts. . just around 500 text messages.
It's just that the custom roms don't put the semicolon between the contacts when you send to multiple people for some reason, just manually put it there. I'm not sure as the the limit of people you can send a single text to. Anyone know?
i use an app called group sms and sent it to a text to about 25 people at once.

[Q] Group Messaging

Morning All. I was wondering is there a way I can group message and receive individual responses from others? I sent out a massive text one time and a friend of mine with a iPhone kept getting message from everyone else I sent the same message to. Any suggestions? It was quite embarrassing when that happened.

That is strange. I usually will text multiple peeps via email client and will receive a response from just one and it only comes to me. I have also text multiple peeps in the past and never heard of anyone getting others responses but who knows. I will have to test that
What messaging app are you using? I'm using the stock app and just adding multiple contacts individually. Not sure if this can be done but do you have groups set up that can be added in the messaging app? If so, this may be the difference. Sorry, I'm not a huge text user but will try to help if I can.
The SGS3 has that, SGS4 and iPhone. If you place several contacts in one text message they will all receive the original message but everyone else will get each others response. Person A sends Person B and C "Hello" in one text. B and C receive. C responds "Hey" and B also receives "Hey" as well. It does get annoying. My son was born last month and I sent a massive picture text, everyone received everyone's text response. So yeah....that is annoying. There is nothing under the settings for both phone and text for this. And I've spent a good 24 hours searching for a solution and nothing..... Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
P.S. Messaging app used is the stock SMS app for the Samsung phone.

Group MMS help

Ive just started doing group mms...its a great feature. But sometimes i get confused. One of my buddies sent out a group mms to about 12 or so people and only three were in the same thread and the rest were just coming in on their own message. The wierd thing was tho, on each message it showed that there was the same 12 people. I dont know why it went to a single thread for some people and not the same thread. I do group mms all the time between iphone and my nexus 4 so thats not the problem. Anyone got any ideas?
Everyone has to have group messaging on their end for all of the messages to show up in the same text you got. If the person responding does not have group messaging capabilities it will come to you as a separate text

Group messaging problems and getting back replies as individual messages

So I have seen stuff all over the web about this topic, but have yet to find an answer. I am one of the many folks that has a problem with group messaging not working correctly. Here is what I have noticed so far.
If I use my stock messaging app to send a group message, it ALWAYS sends out as a group message.
When using Handcent, sometimes, yes just sometimes, when I send out a group message, it will send to each individual contact in that group message. Most times Handcent works properly though. Then every now and then, it sends all individual messages.
Anybody with an Iphone, or another Sprint Galaxy s4, I have no problems with. Theyre replies always come back as a group text
One friend, who has an android on Verizon, when he replies to the group, I not only get his message as if its just coming from him to me, it is also blank, and I cant read it.
Another friend, has an android, not sure what provider, but his messages can be read, but they also come back to me as individual messages.
Is there a different ROM that will solve this issue? I am using Stock 4.2.2, but it is rooted.
This is really annoying, so I wanted to see if anyone has figured this out yet.
me too
This is very annoying to me too. here's what happens to me.
My s4 is on Tmobile prepaid(has been for years since flexpay)
I use Google Voice for calls n text.
I use the native sms app to send/receive.
I use google voice to send/receive and to start my group messages.
Now my native app is starting to not send long messages, roughly 20 characters or more.
Same for my google voice app since the new yr.
I can send out group messages from my google voice app but the replies come back as individual.
All 1,500+ of my contacts use my google voice number to talk to me.
I dont know if this is related but I use Google voice build 0.2.2.80 and will not update yet.
I've attached my version rom. I've used Jovy xtremeperia rom for yrs and its been the best rom I've used thus far. I jus started having issues a month ago with group messaging. I have not done anything different and I never update apps or my rom unless comments say otherwise.
someone please help us if you know anything. I do not use my regular number so if this issue is google voice related please advise. Thanks in advance

Sms blocking issue

Im using the stock sms app and I blocked a number but I still get notified when I get an sms from that number, it was my understanding that it will be archived but its not happening for me. Anyone know how to fix this?
Ask them to stop texting you. Eventually 7/10 times they will cease, just wait them out. Give them what they want.
If it. Continues and they threaten you then you have a case for harassment
