Group Text Messaging for JB - ACHIEVED!

**alienbiker** · 09-14-2012, 03:27 PM

hopefully he is able to reup this all into one commit in to the cm gerrit as well. I looked at the abandoned commits and the comments gave little hints on how to add it as one big commit. looking forward to seeing this added into cm

I have to be that "0ne" I guess..but I'm not getting the revolution here, I can send a text or multimedia to multiple contacts already, what is so different about this find?
EDIT: I figured it out, looks like group texting is where every one can see each others replies. MEh.

Wait, so there isn't a possibility of only having a modified MMS.apk? It needs to be baked into the rom?

Doesn't seem like it, if a change to the database structure is required to do this...if a data wipe is required devs may be hesitant to bake this into their ROMs, unfortunately.

Any chance submitting this to the Vicious Team? The one thing that I hate about group messaging on Android is getting individual replies and then responding back to the group as individual messages..

Been waiting for this feature to be available natively for a while now. Hopefully the OP gets it submitted to the various dev teams.

I have been waiting as well.. I am using a third party SMS app just for the purpose of supporting group sms. WIll be great if / when this becomes a native feature or an add on of sorts.

So which ROMs have this feature installed? ***** had it removed after one build.

Transmitted by the Google Galaxy Nexus. Jellyfied!

The Verizion app does this. It's ugly, but it works. Handcent does it too.

Really would like to see this option in the stock app without having to compile a ROM.

Both are in the play store. I don't have the apk and haven't used either in a while.

How can you get this on a gs3

**Jackpot0** · 09-26-2012, 11:17 PM

That's what I'm looking into. Both devices are similar. I'm no dev but I think it can be ported. I would love to learn how to

Any news on if this is implemented anywhere yet? I'm running it with jelly belly ROM, and still there are several bugs, but still worth it to me!

Do you think if we extract this apk it can work on other roms?

**ohiomoto** · 10-03-2012, 09:45 AM

How do we get Google to understand? There is a 10 page thread at the google android website and Google hasn't even addmitted to there being a problem that I can find.

I don't think that's going to happen. Since this is open source is it hard to make available to other devices?
