In the stock messaging app or any messaging app, is there a way to get a read report for SMS and not only for MMS? I know the stock messaging app and handcent both allow a MMS read report, but there is no option for a text read report to know whether or not the person has read your text. Does anyone have any idea how you can get read reports? Thanks
You know they have read it when they reply to you. There is no other way to know than that. There might be in handcent but I am not sure.

Hello Everyone,
Does anyone know of a way to get the Captive to do a reminder that an unanswered SMS message has come in? My old phone would chime every 5 minutes until I read the message and this was kind of nice.
Thanks
check out an awesome app named handcent.
I should install that on my husband's Captivate. He NEVER checks his notifications and sometimes it goes days before he gets my texts.
Stock SMS app does not support this. Most have gone to 3rd party apps, most popular being Handcent.
Missed Reminder is a good app if you still want to use the stock SMS app.
Thank you, I'll give that a try.
handcent SMS has a option where if u didnt check the message u can set a reminder...i set mine to every 5 minutes
I use tasker and it works awesome!

That's what I use and it works great for SMS, MMS and Gmail. Only gripe is that it doesn't support regular e-mail.

Wrong forum... What rom are you using?
And try GOSMS and see if its any better, it has some extra mms tweaks built in.

That is strange... In reality I think all alternatives(such as chomp and handcent) work off of the built in messenger app. So if your stock app works with mms, they should too...

Update prl and profile first. That tends to help a lot. Also make sure that you leave receive turned on for stock app but not notifications.

Some messages of mine were cut as well. The only thing that fixed it was an updated mms.apk & use ADB push...
Thanks to Gamingphreek for the fix...
MMS.apk fix
I used the default messaging app for my HTC Vivid. I tried group messaging and sent out a picture to many of my friends. It came to them as a group message, but to me, it came back as a single thread(the original thread, one-to-one thread). It would never come back as a group message. It caused a whole lot of problems because of this. ;(
I was wondering if anyone else had this problem, or is it just me?
Or maybe does someone have a suggested app to replace the default messaging app, that is fairly similar to the default one?

i use handcent
I didn't like handcent, because of the looks. Is there any other options?
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using XDA
i personally use go sms as my messaging app
I tried both handcent and go sms. Is there anything more similar to the default app? But thank you for your suggestions.
i use gosms as well and it is great you should use it as well
Do you know if there is a fix for android 4.0 stock messaging app for group messaging?
haha I had the opposite issue, if I grouped people, whenever I sent a message to any 2 people in the group, it turned it into a group message. So I have to send messages individually, if I don't want the entire group seeing individual responses.
Anyone know a fix to this?
The ability to send out to a group of people, more than one, the same message (Multiple contacts in one message), without turning it into an "all can read responses" group message.
So you could send out a group text and it became as group message for all? I wish I could do that. What messaging app do you use?
Hi everyone, I've just uninstall go sms pro and then reinstall it. What happen to me is that all messages that I put into private box disappear. when I enter the private box, App require me to create lock, notification...anđ then "No private messages yet"
For me, they are valuable messages, how can I retrieve them?
Thanks you so so muchhhhhh..
I am sorry if this thread are posted in wrong place.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks you very much
You may want to check your stock messaging app as any messages you sent or received from GoSMS, should also show up there.

Hey guys. I'm coming from a S7 so I will use that as a reference for what I'm trying to do.
On the S7 if I sent a text message to two or more people I can reply all in the same thread or had the option via a little check box to send the messages individually. However, when I send or receive a group message I'm getting individual messages.
It sucks because if someone sent me a group text I can't see who else they sent the message too. And if I can only reply to it individually not as a single thread.
I hope I explained this properly. Does anyone know if there is a setting I'm missing here or is this "feature" not supported on MIUI stock messenger app?

Total PITA but that's the way MIUI handles texts unfortunately. I have looked for a solution but haven't been able to find one...

This is really pissing me off! I even tried 3rd party apps like Google Messenger app but it simply couldn't send the message. Pretty damn annoyed right now

I'm with you...I tried editing APN's, multiple 3rd party apps, etc. and can't get a solution. It's one of the things I have to live with for the time being.
Yeah, it really sucks because I have a handful of co-workers and friends that I use the group text with and now I can't use it. It's nuts that it's not supported.
Like you, I tried messing with APN settings and 3rd party apps but to no avail. If you find a solution please let me know because I'm seriously annoyed right now
I seem to have it working on an app by app basis. It works best from the default messaging app, but I hope this is something that will be fixed in the future.

What network are you on and what are your APN settings? I don't even think the default messaging app has settings pertaining to group text...not as far as I could see
I found Textra to be the best workaround for this. It has some smarts to figure out the group messaging... better than others at least.

TextNow is an awesome app I found that lets you make WiFi Calls and also text over WiFi and of course supports group text messaging.
However, you will have to choose a new # which is not really a huge deal. Just another option for you guys. Been using it for a couple days and it works great!
I will try Textra as well and see if it works.
Textra is the solution . Supports GIF too

Yes, it is. That is what I used for messaging now. TextNow is good for WiFi text and calls though.
