Samsung Messages with RCS

[corvette72778]

Samsung seemed to of ended Samsung Messages on the S25 as it no longer comes installed. But they did a 180 and let you download it from the Galaxy store. Interestingly, the Samsung messages available for download on the S25 is version 15.7 and allows for RCS which is probably the biggest upgrade on the S25. The latest version for the S24 is version 16 with no RCS.

Does anybody know how to get the RCS on Samsung Messages that's on the S25 on the S24? Can you side load the app? I'm not interested in Google messages.

I'm returning the S25 Ultra because it's uncomfortable to hold with the sharp flat edges but will miss the RCS.

Also, when another person is on chat with RCS it shows the blue icon next to their picture. Very cool. What I really like about this feature is that you can send and receive videos without it shrinking down to an 144p quality. HUGE upgrade. Hopefully they'll bring this to the S24. But maybe someone on here can figure it out.

i found the samsung messages v15.7, has anyone tried installing to S24U??

By the way, will RCS only work with people using the same Samsung messages or with anyone regardless of what they use?

On the S24 try going to app info, top right there dots hit uninstall updates.
Go to apkmirror.comand download the version you want and sideload it. See if it works.

I tried installing it and got the following error message.

Can't uninstall updates. I'm on the One UI beta and I think it comes with version 16 so it can't be rolled back.

Ahh. Can't help you there. That might even be a beta limitation at that point (the missing functionality that is, not the downgrade part).
