When I send an MMS to anyone on a network other than T-Mobile using the stock MMS app, the recipient receives a 10 second slideshow with the sent image in it. However, if I send the same image using Handcent rather than the stock MMS app, the recipient receives it with no problem.
Has anyone else experienced this? Using Handcent for MMS is easy enough, but I'm curious as to what's wrong with the stock MMS app. Have others experienced this problem?

The initial MMS issue was about receiving MMS, but after they fixed the Receiving MMS it created the issue you are describing

I hear you. I'll give them a call tomorrow, but the fact that mms seems to send properly in handcent but not in the stock app makes me think its problem with the apk and not t-mo's network.

Hello
Does anyone know how we can launch the android SMS app on Honeycomb/transformer?
Thanks
there is no built in sms app on the Transformer because the the TF is only a WiFi device. (3G not yet released).

I have been looking into this myself. My same question. Even though the TF doesn't have 3G, is there an app out there that can send and recieve SMS over wifi? If there is that would be outstanding!
SMS Sync. It will send through your phone. It doesn't yet support PUSH, so it can really affect battery life.
Just install Google Voice using this apk: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11955195&postcount=75 , then send anyone you SMS a text from GV saying, "Hey, this is so-and-so, please add this number to my contact record on your phone or someone you love will die!"
Well here it is my fellow androids. We asked for it and Handcent fell through. We should all thank Handcent and their developers for this new big update. Keep in mind this app is still in Beta stage. However, I tested it for a couple of days and I was able to chat with my fellow iPhone lovers. I was also able to chat with verizon Galaxy Nexus, Thunderbolt and LG revolution. I havent had a chance to chat with none Verizon phones. You guys will be our testers. Please list all bugs here and Ill forward the list to the developer. So far there are two bugs with this build. The first bug is double notifications on group mms and the second one is blurry background images with Droid Razor phones
Setup:
1. You must make this app default messaging app for all MMS and SMS.
"settings"->application settings->Default Messaging Application-> All(SMS&MMS)
2. You must enable Thread Group Conversation. Its all the way down in application settings
"settings"->application settings->group messaging->check Thread Group conversation
3. MMS retrieval should be set to Auto unless you want to download each group message.
4. You might experience some lag as the group mms pour in one after another. I think this is normal cuz I do experience it on my Razor maxx using the stock app since it has this this feature built in. In addition, I asked my freind with iPhone 4s if he experiences lag when all these group messages pour in and he said yes. Sometimes he cant touch his phone until all the messages have been received
5. Be gentle on me if I missed any bugs. Im already in the Dog house in my wifes book for spending too much time on this project. This is the reason why the developer is releasing the app for public feedback.
File got updated:
Fixed double notification
fixed some bugs
This file not in market, so you guys are Handcent beta testers.

Loving the capability! It seems to be working well.
Have one question/bug. Some replies say "Me:" and they go to the group. Some replies say "Me to name: and they are going individually to the group it appears.
I did not do anything different I don't think on any of the replies but I may be missing something or this could be a bug.
Thanks for the great feature!

What phone are you using? Can you send a screen shot. In other words when you reply to message, you are replying to yourself also? I had that at first was fixed. I wonder if each phone will have that bug

so testing it with cm9 on HTC evo 3D (sprint) doesn't seem to want to send group messages at all. Just get that continuous loading symbol and never sends. I'll test it on stock first and see if it is the problem with the rom and report back

The file has been update. Hopefully fix your issue.
So far I have had it "break" and resort to sending separate messages once. I have three theories as to why...
It may have been due to not completely removing my old Handcent beta first.
I was Texting with friends pretty frequently, and I noticed if I exit the thread and re-enter it would "convert to MMS", Maybe it drops out of MMS if you send several texts in a row?
The thread I was sending to had my google voice number in it, so I was essentially sending messages to myself at the same time.
Sometimes if you have a group message with say Joe Smith as a participant and a separate thread with Joe, getting the group text will show a notification for the separate thread and you have to do "mark as read" to fix it.
I am on a HTC Thunderbolt BTW.
Did not try the updated file yet, downloading now.

It works well for me.

Have not had the issue where the group message sends separate again, but this one is still happening...

An issue happens when you send texts too quickly it sends you back to inbox and doesn't display the messages. From what my friends tell me it displays something weird in their group chat. I have to visually see it to confirm. Love that it actually works though

can you send me a screen shot please and Ill forward to developer.
How is it supposed to work? I tried it with my friend who has an iPhone but it didn't send messages via Internet service but normaly as SMS messages. Friend with iPhone tried to pull his sim card out of phone with no succes. Does it need any special settings to make it work?
Anyway I don't care much cause I have all my SMS free I just wanted to try that function.
I use HC Talk service to chat with my girlfriend everyday so there's no problem about functionless HC Service

In the first post is suggests going to settings>application settings>default messaging application>set it to all sms and mms.
Then settings again>application settings>scroll all the way down>check the thread group conversation box.
Then should work

So I'm having trouble with group text conversations. I can send to multiple users, but their responses come in as individual texts. I've downloaded Go SMS Pro and Handscent, neither work either.
I'm coming from an iPhone, and I disabled iMessaging before I enabled this phone. I didn't turn off the other settings for group messaging because I thought they were irrelevant. I went in and did it, the phone is still connected to WiFi so I'm hoping if that was the reason it fixed it. Anyone else having this problem, or can offer a solution?

Problem fixed. I uninstalled Go SMS Pro and Handiscent. Somehow that fixed the problem...
I have this issue too. I don't know what caused it. I'm currently using Whatsapp for group messaging.
So I recently got the mi 9t and it looks like my group messaging is messed up
I'm on T-Mobile, and on stock miui 10
Whenever anyone sends a group txt I get it but all replies are received as individual txt not under the group, not to mention I can't really reply to the group
Any help would be appreciated
I get this problem as well and I have decided to use Google's messages instead. I love the stock app but I can't find any solution to this problem.

Yeah I've been using Google messages app and still have this issue it's weird, I guess I'll just pay here if I ever find anything
Edit 1:So Textra turns out used to solve this issue on old miui devices and apparently still does, don't know why it "fixed" it but it works
Edit2: turns out that factory resetting while my sim was in it fixed it
