Have you noticed when in a group message? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5

I just noticed when I was in a group message I could see when the others were typing and when they read my message? Does this only work when messaging others who have the note 5? That was the case but I can't find any options for this
I should mention that I did find settings for "chat" that would allow me to see the others typing and when they have read my message...but I had turned those off before noticing the typing message and had confirmed they were off after noticing.

Here

It's a new implementation baked into Android devices on T-Mobile. The Note 5 and Edge Plus are 3rd and 4th ever to get it, I believe.
Edit: Here you go.

I haven't noticed it texting anyone else so I couldn't tell you. It's funny though, in the group text I was in...two others were in it....both T-Mobile users and both note 5 users...only one person had the "typing" showing when texting

Anyone experiencing a lag or delay when messaging?

Basically, it's like iMessage for Android. If both phone users have the Advanced Messaging installed on their phones, they will be able to see when the other has read a text or is typing. It's going to be great to see when it is implemented on more devices.

To see the "is typing" while texting go to messages, more, settings, chat settings, turn on share typing indications also if you turn off read receipts than the other person won't see if you've read his messages or not but you can still see theirs if their settings are switched to on
You don't need to be in group text for this to work it seems to only be working with the newer phones, I just upgraded 3 phones 1 note and 2 edge plus' and we tested it out

Yes you will see when someone has read yours or if it's been delivered because they have their settings on, but they will not be able to see it on their end since your settings are checked to off

I actually switched to Google messenger. I'm assuming it won't work unless you're on the stock message app

How do TouchWiz users cope with NO group texting?

One thing that kills me about stock touchwiz is the lack of group texting. I don't want to switch to a 3rd party SMS app, but I am thinking that is what I have to eventually do.

Im sure there is a way to load TW messenger to work on other roms. But how many people actually continue to have group conversations thru text?
Group texting like send one text to multiple people? I do it all the time even with mms's
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
I wish stock mms had the capability, but it's not a huge deal to me because Verizon messages works very well. You can even disable stock and Verizon messages will still work.

Ya Im confused too, touchwiz mms allows you to send to multiple people. I guess they mean keeping it all grouped cause the touchwiz one replies all come in to seperate threads?
If your rooted you can switch out the stock mms app for a aosp one, i.e. themed and stock

it isnt really "coping" when I have never wanted to group text. facebook tells all my friends what i want them to know about...
It drives me nuts when I get those group texts from iPhone users. I love how android does it, separate threads

Thank you. One iPhone user sends you a group text and then you gotta get bugged by every other iPhone user replying to the original sender. One of the most annoying things in the world. Sad thing is, they think it's cool.

I guess it's handy to the sender. I assume they haven't been on the other end though.
Is it even in option on a "stock" android phone. I've had moto, htc and now Samsung, I don't ever remember it being an option.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
I can't stand the stock msg app. GoSMS Pro is so much better imo.

It separates the threads to each individual who responds. So if the group is 6 people, I get 6 different texts from 6 different people. HTC never had this problem! Coming from the rezound. Lol

It is standard now on aosp 4.2. I used to think it was annoying, but now after using it with friends, I see why it is useful personally.

It is honestly driving my crazy! I HATE tw does not support this and it is really annoying. A lot of my friends use group messaging and If i were to reply to the messages being sent I would have to reply to each individual person seeing how group messages appear in separate threads for me.

I dont think those links really help. From my understanding the framework has to be changed and it is only fixed in android 4.2 anyways so im not sure those links are to helpful sadly =(
Use a different messaging app if you don't like the stock.

Ok I have a question. I tried using GOSMS and When I tested out the group messaging feature my friends had told me that they had gotten the message as an individual message towards them and that it did not appear to them as a proper group message. Is there a certain feature inside gosms that you have to have checked in order to get this to work properly?

I don't think it did. It's weird cuz when I'm in a group message with iphone and android users, I am able to see the pic. But from an iphone user it's blank. I went on the Apple support website and unregistered a couple iPhones so I don't know if that worked or not. I'm currently waiting for an mms from a friend lol. Does rooting cuz an issue? I got my wife the same phone same day and she is able to receive mms but she isn't rooted.....
Edit. SO I got an mms from my friend. Not sure if my other friends iphone is through issue or not....

I used to have the exact same problem.... once I started using Google Hangouts it fixed everything.
I had the same problem when using my LG G2. But, I sometimes was not able to receive MMS's from Android AND iPhone users. It got very frustrating. I am always in full, or near full LTE, or on a stable WiFi connection. The only, temporary, solution was to use another messaging app. I tried a handful, got sick of that, so just used Hangouts as my default. That fixed the problem!... For a couple of weeks, then I would get the same "broken" image thumbnail where the picture or text that the MMS was supposed to be.
Now that I'm on my G3, I noticed this problem was even more serious. Still in the AT&T store, I received an MMS, and was not able to download it. They exchanged it with another G3. Got home, same problem. It's a complete hit or miss, being sent to me from and Android or iPhone, I receive about 80% of the incoming MMS's, and the rest I will ask the person to send it to my email, or use whatsapp if that's an available option.
I have called and emailed about the problem and I've only gotten the responses that you think a "technical level 2" employee would give.
Waaaaaaaahhhhh. :crying::crying:
I had this same thing happen from an iPhone user (she was probably using verizon). My wife's iphone sent me an image a few minutes later and it worked fine. She is on ATT. So i wonder if it's a network problem.

Saw this on another thread and thought i would toss it here, it basically says that sometimes Ad block can mess with some MMS possibly. Just tryinig to put all the information in one place...
Apple has admitted to delaying messages between Android and I phones in the past so it could be doing it again ("accidentally")

Advanced messaging working?

Title says it all. I have tried to use it with my brothers note 5 but it doesn't seem to work. WiFi calling and voLTE enabled on both phones.
Both phones have to have advanced messaging. It works between my and my wife with our note 5's
anyone else been trying to see if this works or not...
Lol still doesn't work between my brother and i. Both with note 5s. May be it's still "rolling" out to places, ie towers not updated yet
You have to go into contacts and open each contact that has the capability and the video calling and advanced messaging will flip to green. At least that has been my experience to get it to work for my contacts that have the option.

Whatsapp

Nice to see the Gear S2 gives the ability to at least reply to messages with the dismal s voice, pre defined or keyboard ?
But you cannot create a new message only reply to an existing received message on your watch.
A Big plus for me
Something happened
Mine started off being able to reply but now the options available to choose is show on phone, Block and clear..
Odd still works fine for me

Noticed that pictures will only show when there is only one message in that particular whatsapp thread. Once there is more than one message, images stop appearing on the Gear S2.

Samsung "chat" (texts) in the message app are not being delivered

My wife and I both have Galaxy S7 running on Tmobile. We both use the default message app for texting. When Texting her, it is sending it as chat and the message is marked as "Not delivered". Ive had both phones in my hands and can verify the text I sent from hours earlier was not delivered. Please see attachment. Is there any way to fix this to make sure they get delivered? Is there anyway, other than one of us switching to a different messaging app, to force these as text messages and not "chat" messages?
