I've been trying to use the "Leave group Conversation" feature of the "Details" page of iMessage in iOS 8, and I cannot get it to work. I've reset my network settings, logged in and out of iCloud, and restarted the phone. No luck.
Is anyone else having the same problem?
thanks,

I have this problem too. I have left the same conversation several times and I keep getting texts in the thread.
Same exact situation here. And I was SO excited at prospect of being able to bail... What's the deal??
How many are in the group thread? A "group" is 3 or more, so to get out of a group message there has to be 4 or more participants so that there are at least 3 when you leave. That would imply that the thread's "group status" needs to remain, though I don't know how correct this is.
The group I was trying to leave had eight participant.
IOS 8 PHONE DOES´NT WORK.
Mute does not work either...."Mute Conversation"
I have had this same issue. I noticed that there were people in the conversation that did not have iPhone, so I am wondering if all participants have to be using iMessage for this feature to work.
Appears to be the case that all participants must be on iMessage. Pretty **** worthless…
Doesn't seem to matter. I'm included in a group conversation of 8 people, all on iPhones. I've requested to leave the conversation at least 5 different times and I'm still receiving messages. I've tried muting the conversation as well but still receive notifications.
I read that everyone in the group messaging has to have iMessaging and their phone has to be updated to iSO 8. Oh it has to be 4 or more people in the group. Which really does not work for me because everyone in my contacts does not have an iPhone!
There are a few things to note with this feature however, leaving a conversation in Messages only works when all of those in the message thread are using iMessage – if it’s a group SMS, say there’s an Android user in the thread as well, you’re out of luck and can’t leave the chat. Keep that in mind if the texts keep popping up.
Everyone in the group has to have iphone, ipad etc and be using imessage in order to "leave conversation"
Oh, that makes sense. Having to put up with a annoying text group. Wish I could make it go away. Leave this group sounded great.
