Why do I only receive a group messaging text from one individual person and not the whole group?

Group Messaging Help

So let me start off by saying I've searched high and low for a solution to my problem.

This will start out the same way as many other people's issue.

I switched from a broken iPhone to my Galaxy S4, using Verizon as my carrier. It took me awhile but I was finally able to disable iMessage. I completely disabled all my devices associated with my itunes account, reset my account etc.

Here's my problem, I have one group text that I only receive texts from one individual (out of 3). The individual I receive texts from on that group uses an iPhone as do the rest of them.

Every other group text I am on I receive messages from (some with all iphone users, some not).

I've spoken to Verizon and Samsung. So far I have disabled my iMessage, switched my "global roaming" network off to solely LTE, and I've done a factory reset on the phone.

I'm struggling here. I basically get daily messages as a part of a group that I get one persons responses to; an unsolvable puzzle.

Any help would be more than appreciated.

Re: Group Messaging Help

This is happening to me too on a Moto X 2014, after switching from an iPhone. I've performed all of the iMessage deregistration fixes and I get non-group texts from iPhone users just fine. It appears to be only when there is a group and all the others are on iPhones. This problem did not occur when I was on Android prior to idiotically moving to the iPhone for a couple months to try it out.
