T-Mobile - Google Messages - RCS issue

[mustang7757]

Haha, I have done everything. T-mobile/Samsung wanted me to reset phone but I don't want to do that ....yet.

What nah no need for that

Nope, I still haven't gotten it to work. And yea, about last tuesday is when I realized that RCS was no longer enabled. I've been trying to get my number to "verify" since then.

Yeah and that day i could see when text from my wife switched from chat to sms...of course I lost all of them though.

I can give you few things to try out , first you have carrier service app installed?

Yep wasn't on there originally...even when was working. I assume Samsung doesn't install?? But yes I downloaded latest version.

Yeah Samsung don't have it , does it make any difference?

I have been stuck with this issue for about a week. I manually type in my number and its stays stuck on this screen. I've tried the following: Clear all app data, uninstall app, re-install app, I installed Google's carrier services app(as recommended on the Google Messages support thread that's going on), I've tried leaving chat features off for a day and using the app like normal and then try to enable RCS again. NONE, of those have worked for me. I'm at a loss, I don't know what else to try. It's very annoying, to say the least.

Edit: I'm on a Verizon locked S21 Ultra.

Have you tried since installing Feb update?

Go to settings>apps>system apps >find IMS and tap.it then go storage clear data and force stop it , and message app do same and try again.

Check carrier settings. Make sure it is up to date. If necessary uninstall and reinstall carrier settings. Issues with number verification is usually linked to that

I have done this as well with Samsung..didn't help.

Man you don't have luck with this

 

[mustang7757]

I think you should leave it alone for couple days and check back.

 

[jlangner]

yeah, thanks for trying!

This is what I am stuck on.

I had similar issue, try clearing cash and date. Put in airplay mode with wifi on then open the app and try to varify.

For those having issues, do you happen to have an ad blocker on your phone?

No go.

I am having the same issue with my s21 Ultra unlocked on Cricket. There are quite a few threads on Reddit with the same issues. Even enabling the debug menus and trying fixes there didn't work.
