can't send sms to a group anymore?

[Ravel2014]

After the update to 8.1, I can't send texts to a group people

Does anyone experience the same?

Any solutions?

My phone is lumia 1320

Thanks!

Just to be certain, have your checked your messaging settings and ensured group text is still on? Also you will need to have MMS automatically download for group chats.

Just checked it. It is definitely on but still cant send text to the whole group

Could you try turning that on and off, then power cycle the device and attempt to do a group message.

I also face the same problem

Also see if you can have someone send you a group chat and if you can respond to it.

I will turn group text off and turn off the phone and see how I go...

Just turned off the group sms and turned off the phone

Turned on the phone and turns on the group sms.

Still can't send sms to several ppl at the same time...

Look to see if you can send media content to one person. Try a picture.

I too am having this issue on my Lumia 1520 on developer preview. I can send mms to an individual, but not group messages as mms. Refreshing this option does not seem to fix it.

On the last OS version, I was receiving responses from myself. Perhaps its a related issue.

MMS to one person does not work either :/

Updates seem to mess up some basic functions !!

If you were to go to your Cellular+Sim settings, did your Sim settings change as well as your Internet APN/MMS APN? If so or not sure, you should contact your service provider.

For whatever reason toggling the group mms option worked today. I'm sure I had done it in the past. Thanks for the help!

No problem comrade.

Welp, my phone forgot how to group mms again

Deleting the thread "fixed" the issue.
