Help Group MMS

[ChiTownJim]

Why can't I install this .apk on my old Dinc, rip it off of there and install it on my Galaxy Nexus?

I thought about this too only problem is that it doesn't work properly on the nexus. It worked fine for a whole week the. I just wasnt getting texts

I just learned of this feature today.
I have a Galaxy Nexus, and before that a Droid 1.

I've used the mass SMS feature of Android 2.2.x and 4.0.2 many times. All it does is send one SMS to multiple receipents individually. It does NOT automatically convert it to an MMS.

The Group feature is novel, but with so many solutions for this already (email, plethora of IM clients, Google+, etc) it seems a waste of effort to support such a niche feature. When multiple people respond in parallel to an email, the previous is typically quoted, aiding in deciphering out-of-order responses.

Also, this will very quickly make your monthly text message count get out of control, forcing you to upgrade your text plan. Long story short, this feature costs you money when free choices are already available.

Since so many people do not have iPhones (with this enabled) or even Smartphones, the actual number of people that support this is currently quite low, and thus not a feature you should depend upon.

They should first work on getting MMS support in Google Voice.

Yeah I still think it's something android should support , I know a lot of people with iphones and when I had my Rezound and could do this with VZW Messager it was really nice but it's starting to not be a big deal anymore as I'm slowly converting this people to Android anyways

I uploaded the apk here if you still want to give it a shot, fyi you will most likely need to be rooted as you have to push the apk to the /system

[Q] Android Group MMS SMS Chat like iPhone iOS4 - Page 11 - xda-developers

I really like that with this app I can finally be cool and be able to group text my iPhone friends. One thing I really hate about this app is that it completely takes over my Text Messaging notifications, even if I disable them from within the app :/

Hope this helps...
