Help Galaxy S3 - Verizon - Group Text

Someone started a group text which I was part of. When others on the group text reply I get their texts. When I reply, it only goes to the original sender. Does this phone/OS not have the capability of responding to all members of a group text?

In the text settings, there is a box to check under Group conversations - "Send messages as group conversations by default"; whether this is checked or not, I don't see how I would be able to respond to all recepients of a group text. Maybe this is not possible, hard to believe with such a new phone.

had this problem too. I got Go SMS pro, and turned on the MMS group text. Now it works like it does on the iphone.

I don't think it's an issue with iphones. Most my friends have iphones (never understood why, but that's a different thread) and all my previous phones (mostly BlackBerries) have been able to group text with them just fine.
I wish they would get a fix for the native texting app. I like using it better than Go SMS or Handcent.
