Flip 4 Google Messages RCS

[mcaspe1]

I have chat enabled and I am connected. When I go to send a chat message to contacts that in my old phone have been able to send messages to, on my flip 4 it only sends as an SMS message. RCS chat is enabled and I am connected.

I am stumped. Any help would be appreciated.

Did you disable RCS on the old phone first? If not, it may take a couple days for the new one to fully register, especially for existing conversations.

Also do a reboot as well if not done so already ..

I didn't. I just replaced the sim card. I guess I have to wait now.

Did you get it resolved?

Not resolved. I looked into it more. Looks like AT&T has it blocked since the S22 came out on AT&T branded phones. I have an AT&T phone.

I think the Samsung messaging app is pretty good. No RCS that I can see but it has a form of advanced messaging with other Samsung phones.

Unlocking the firmware is a little above my pay grade so I guess I'm stuck without RCS unless AT&T relents.

I understand , the Samsung message app on carrier version should definitely have RCS

I have tried with others who use Google Messages with RCS and it comes through only as SMS. I have the app's settings for advanced messaging turned on in Samsung Messages..
