I have never had an iPhone, but I went to the apple site to unregister my number. Apple said my number is not registered on imessage, which makes sense. I feel like this happened a while back when the iPhone users named the group text. We solved it by un-naming the group.
This is a stupid problem. Is there a smart solution for future named group messages? It actually caused a pretty big fight within the family with some of the in-laws.
The solution will require some legwork. Tell all of your contacts to go I to your contact info and change your phone number from iphone to mobille. The iphones default to iPhone when entering contacts initially. After deregistering my iPhone number and turning off iMessage on an iPhone, I still see this issue occasionally. It seems to only happen with people that had texted me through iMessage when I had an iPhone and they still have one. I have found that it takes two steps to resolve this issue for me.
This has to be done for every person who was included in a group text when you had iMessage. I believe that with an existing group text, the iPhone continues to use iMessage if that is what it used previously without checking if your number is set to Mobile or if your number is valid in iMessage.
He has never had an iPhone and cant receive some group messaging when generated by iPhone users. We will try the mobile vs iPhone contacts fix, but this is really absurd. If you wish to add or remove the same conversation, open up the group conversation in the Messages app. Now use the three-dot menu icon in the top right corner to select Add or remove people option.
That's how easy it is. Again, if any group member replies to your message, it'll be shown in their chat thread. Group texts save a lot of time, especially when you intend to send messages to the same group of people time and again.
Plus, adding and removing more contacts isn't complicated either. So, what are you waiting for? Go ahead and send those group messages.

Jul 22, PM. The rules for group messages is different for a group containing all Apple device users, than it is for a mix of Apple devices and non Apple users. When you set up a group that will have some non Apple users, you need to set the group up with everyone whom you want to invite.
