Hi all,
I'm hoping someone can offer a suggestion for my problem. I have a Note 4 Global and my default messaging app (mysms) will not receive MMS's. It can send MMS's OK just cannot receive.
I've contacted the mysms support and they say it's a problem between my phone and the network. I find this hard to believe as the default messaging app, Textra, Mighty Text and Pulse all can receive MMS.
I want to keep mysms as my default message app as I like the way it syncs messages to my Tablet. Yes, I have tried many others but this is the most reliable. If it would just receive MMS's.
I did not have this issue using mysms on my Samsung S3, it has only happened since I started using the Note 4 so I'm thinking it might be a permissions thing.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
TIA
Greg
Well did you give it permissions?

Hi,
I'm on T-Mobile UK and when ever I send a slightly long SMS, the phone auto converts it to an MMS message and sends it through the internet/uses data to send it?
Why is this? It never used to happen on my Desire.
Any help is appreciated!

WTF... Why is it only this phone that does this!!!!
eugh...hate using a secondary messaging app. :/
It's just a pain coz it displays the message as if it were a picture (which looks ugly) and it's hard/takes longer for the person to receive the message!
THanks though for clearing that up!
Hate to dig up old topics, but looks like my SII can't send more than 1 sms (160 characters) before converting the whole text to mms. People were reporting they can send up to 3 sms before phone converts to mms. 3 should be ok for me, but 1 definitely sucks. Is there a way i can make it accept 3 sms ?
Try this
For me it stays as a text message and I send many text overseas and not just from the country I'm in at the time.
Try my settings.
Going Message> Settings> Text Message Limit
I changed the default to 2010 not that I send that amount and select now Set.
Their is a MMS fix around if that help .

That setting is only for how many messages should the phone store before deleting old conversations, doesn't help with sending more characters in a single sms Thanks for the tip JJEgan but i don't wanna root my phone to achive that and only solution i found was handcent sms which looks like crap. Must be a way of sending at least 3 sms, as all the other SII, but played with sms settings and there's no such thing. Wonder if my provider has anything to do with that, but it's highly unlinkely, as i can send multiple sms with other phones in the same network.

Oh sorry

Some 3rd party SMS apps perform delivery reports like Chomp SMS and iPhone messages emulator. I like both of the apps, chomp is free, iPhone message isn't.
Has anyone gotten the group texting that works on the S3 working on the S4?
Bump.

Group texting as in it turns a message to multiple recipients into a MMS message so everyone can see the original message and all replies? If so, it's been working just fine for me
Weird. I don't even get the prompt that my other friends do. Can you upload your messaging.apk?

I'm actually using handcent atm, but I will test with the stock messaging app & let you know how it goes

I don't even have the option for it, yet everyone else I know has it on their phone. I guess I'll try to rip it from a Verizon ROM.

My group messaging does not work. Everyone thats in my group gets an individual text message. It shows that it was sent as a MMS.
please help,
thanks
This is where Handcent or Handcent Pro Beta flourishes, It works good. If you install it just disable your stock "Message" program under Applications > All.

I tried Handcent, still does not work.
I seemed to have lost the ability to send or receive group messages. My Hangouts app does not have the option under advanced settings, where it was definitely there on my nexus 5. I have had the phone for a week and I only noticed after I tried to send a group message so I am not sure if it was there and disappeared or it was never there to begin with. Group messages get sent as individual SMS instead of MMS. The phone is rooted.

I don't really know if is related to your root, but I doubt it, I have my group conversation options in both, default and Hangouts apps, so just to see, go to your default messaging app and go to settings, multimedia messages and be sure that you have the Group conversation selected there, maybe, and I'm guessing here, if it's not selected there, maybe Hangouts don't give you the option.

From what I've read, it would seem its a problem with the phone. I've also gotten mixed responses from the community here on XDA. Everything from Samsung saying they got rid of that feature all the way to it's the Sim cards. I don't have the option on any of them. So I'm in the same boat.

My default messages app doesn't have the option either. It's like it doesn't exist.
I tried factory reset too and that didn't work.

I went to the T-Mobile store and switched the sim, and it works now. This may or may not matter, but the sim in which it didn't work was Isis-enabled, and the new one is not.

I had the same issue as you.. Both of my SIM cards were ISIS sim cards. The one that came with the phone didnt allow for group messaging and the new one did..
I also have a issue with the stock messaging app not handling group conversations correctly when i am on wifi. When wifi is off, they come just fine, except they come in way slower than my wifes iphone 5S.. we both have tmobile.. I might be tempted to go back to the iphone 5s
I have the option on my text messenger settings.. But my buddy just got his phone and this option is not available... What could that mean?

This is to confirm that issue is with SIM card
I did everything including switching Different SIM card, Finally Found out that ISIS SIM seems to be culprit, ( they are new one with NFC enabled)
Below screen show good and bad sim in terms for group messaging to work.

Did you resolve? I'm having intermittent issues with fail to send on both SMS and MMS. SM-950F
Sounds like my issue is the same: 950F on 8.0 SMS only, red icon > ! < and immediate fail. T-Mobile. I suspect it may be CSC related but haven't been able to load US CSC.

Check your APN settings.
Constantly. I think its the enhanced messaging messing up.
