Has anyone found a way to install the original Google Messages on an ATT S22U phone? I'm not a huge fan of the OneUI version and also - this version locks you into using the ATT RCS backend (instead of the Jibe/Google backend) and therefore sets you back a few years into not being able to utlize RCS services except with other ATT users. So, I suddenly now cannot use RCS with most of my Android friends/family since they are not on ATT. I've tried installing the APK of the regular Google Messages but it won't install saying it's an invalid package. SIGH. There's a whole big hullabaloo on the ATT forums about this. Not holding my breath on ATT actually trying to fix this.
I am guessing using an unlocked version with ATT sim would not have this problem.
