Question regarding Texts...

When I receive a text that includes multiple recipients I cannot see who else the text was addressed to. Is there a way to do this? I've tried hitting "settings" when in the text message application but there doesn't appear to a solution there.
Also, there is no option to "reply all" when I receive a text like this. How can I reply all?

Sorry for what I'm sure is a noobie question...thanks in advance for any insight you can offer!

I've wondered the same thing. Unfortunately, there's no Help menu but fortunately there's alot of helpful folks here so maybe we'll find out the answers.

Thanks. Does go sms work with mms?

Still wondering if the stock application can allow me to see all recipients and reply all?

thanks!

I don't think it will. I have since switched to Handcent, but I don't recall ever seeing other recipients unless the text had been sent from an iPhone. I don't on Handcent either.

So I'm trying Go SMS and like it. But the favorite contact widget that's on the RAZR wants to use the stock text application. Is there a way to change this?

EDIT: sorry, no way to delete. I see now it will let me choose.

do you have thread group conversations checked? That's the only thing I can think of because I didn't have to do anything. BTW if you use Go SMS, there seems to be a delay that is not there when using the stock. I have tested this many times.

Where is threaded group conversation found? There's a ton of options, but I'm not seeing that.

Are you using the stock text app, Not the universal message app? It should be very visible once you pull up the settings menu.

I see all recipients using the stock text and the default is reply all.

I use and prefer GO SMS Pro due to the fact that I can text multiple people at once but they don't receive the other recipients also I like the fact that you can send write a text and then send it a chosen time.

I am curious if you check the Settings to Split large messages over 160 characters? They say that's good for CDMA networks. Wonder if you do that?
