ingenium Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Just curious if anyone's had RCS get enabled in Google Messenger yet? I have the latest version (2.0.069), but still no RCS. Google and Sprint seems to indicate having the newest version is enough, but I'm wondering if there is a server side switch as well? http://newsroom.sprint.com/blogs/devices-apps-and-services/sprint-is-the-first-carrier-to-launch-rcs-messaging-with-google.htm https://blog.google/products/android/partnering-global-carriers-upgrade-sms/ Sent from my Pixel XL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took a couple of days after I updated the app. I haven't been able to test it out because unfortunately most of the people that I know with Sprint have iPhones and naturally use iMessage. It'd be nice if Apple baked RCS into iMessage, but of course they have no incentive to do so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deval Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 How do you know if you've received the push? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rackhivee Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 How do you know if you've received the push? I opened the app and it asked if I wanted to turn on enhanced messaging and then some wizardry happened about sharing your sim info with the mobile provider. Didn't get any other updates. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david279 Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Maybe it's been rolled out in regions because I have yet to get anything. Sent from my LG V20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DurhamHusker Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 If it will also do regular MMS over WiFi in lieu of RCS I'll be pleased as punch. I really do like Google's messenger but I'm not leaving the stock messaging app without it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benji827 Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 I have GS7 and turned on enhanced mesaaging in regular messaging app. I can send video no photo compression, but the other user should turn on the enhanced messaging also to work.
