I have had some continuous issues with group texting. Group messaging is turned on in my phone, 8X on ATT. When someone replies to my group message any one of 4 scenarios occurs:
Scenario 1, A OK:
The message appears in the group thread. The message itself is the actual text. The banner notification displays the actual text in the message.
Scenario 2, Incorrect Message Preview: The message appears in the group thread. The message itself is the actual text. The banner notification displays "Media content in this message."
Scenario 3, Just Plain Messed Up:
The message from "John" does not appear in the group thread; it appears in John's individual thread. The message itself says "Media content in this message.". The banner notification says "Media content in the message." I can click on the message text (its underlined) and it says "Getting media content now..." The message disappears and now the message loads into the group thread correctly. With the banner notification previewing actual text. And the message itself now being the actual text. The original "Media content......" message in Johns individual thread disappeared and never comes back. The kicker to this scenario is when I click the message in Johns individual thread it often freezes on "Getting media content now...." and never loads. I must restart my phone and then it will load the content. Restarting is not always successful and I am sometimes stuck with an unreadable message.
Is anyone else experiencing issues like this? Is it hardware? Considering contacting HTC to swap my phone out. Extremely frustrating considering how much I used group messaging especially after this holiday season with lots of threads with different family members.
