Hi, TereseS.

I had the same issue after the update. Most likely this feature just needs to be enabled. Go to Settings > Messages and turn on Group messaging.

Hi Jason H

I had my group message enabled...I also was not able to activate my iMessage and FaceTime. I had to back up my iPhone, erase all content and settings and reinstall everything. It is now working.

Thanks,
TereseS
