debbiemoo, congratulations on your new phone! Making sure that you're in total control of your text messaging preferences is an absolute must. We'd love to help resolve your concerns. Could you please tell us a bit more about your group message settings on your new phone? To clarify, you would like for the response in the group thread to be sent only to your number, is that correct? Also, what texting app are you using on your phone?
