I have Facebook contacts disabled but when I create a new message and I type in the recipients name, contacts from Facebook show up as options to chose. How can I get rid of this? I have already disabled pulling from history in recipient settings in messages... Help!

I use SMS reminders in Google calendar. For some reason default Hero messages application does not group these messages under one name as it does for other contacts so I have pretty lengthly list of Google reminders in my inbox.
I tried adding dummy Google contact but it did help. Maybe I should have add telephone number to it but there is no sender number in message details.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
I had a similar problem, because each reminder message is from a unique number (the proper shortcode followed by a sequence number), so that Google's system can identify individual messages (and replies when applicable). I never did figure out a way to get them to group, but I did find a work around. I switched my notification types from SMS to Pop-up (in my GCal settings, online). If you have notifications turned on in your phone's calendar, then the calendar app on your phone will alert you (similar to the way the alarm does) rather than getting a text message. The other advantage to this, at least in my opinion, is that if I don't notice it right away, it'll snooze and pop up again in a few minutes, unlike a text message, which is a one shot thing.
GS2 allows me to send SMS to contacts no more than 10 Even more annoying is, that also email addresses are counted in a group list. Although I'm writing SMS and try to add the contact group in it, the list shows both the phone numbers and email addresses!!! Helpdesk said: "It is possible to tick the whole group at once, if you have contacts 10 or less." So, if all of them have email too, I can have a group list of 5 contacts max!!!
Is there any chance to get rid of this limit???
Same question
I have a limit to 10 contacts per time to select
See this mod, only for custom deodexed roms though.
I have some contacts on my phone with Multiple numbers and they are not coming up when i type their name in any text message app that i download. They only show up when i use the Native messenger app that is default. I have to go to their contact in the contact list in order to send them a text. whats the issue and how can i fix it?
I have created contact groups (carried over from S7). I can't seem to send group text messages.
I select "messages" icon, then, "New message" icon.
My groups do not show up in the text messaging app, though it does in the phone contacts.
And even in contacts I have to choose the entire group (I can't select just a few.)
Any thoughts.
TIA
Same issue here... No "fix" from Samsung and tmoble
Same issue
Just want to add my request for any possible solution to this problem. I'm attempting to send a group text from within the actual texting app -- not leaving it to go into Contacts first -- and for some reason, groups aren't listed in the separate contacts sub-heading. Seems like a boneheaded design decision.
I spoke to Samsung about this. Apparently the ability to choose a "group" from within the messaging app was removed with the Oreo update. SMH
Hello
I want to send a text message from my honor 8x to a group of my contacts but cannot do it because there will be an option of MMS for groups only. Can anyone tell me soultion.
You may change to SMS group messaging through the advanced settings of the Messages app.
Messages>Settings>Advanced>Group Messaging
Then choose the option: Send an SMS reply to all recipients and get individual replies (mass text)
Hope this helps.
