The only thing was after I did all the steps and you go to settings in the messages app. On the top where it says, “ status ” it was connecting. To the right of that it said Retry. So when I hit retry it's asked me to put my number in and it took about 1 minute, and it changed from connecting to connected. Thanks Saki

    When I got to the 'set rcs flag' portion, the 'pattern' option never sets. I go back in and it's in the default setting. And I guess that's why when I open the 'messages' app chat settings said it's unavailable. Probably doesn't help that I have a Samsung S8+. But I saved your video for my next phone upgrade to add this eventually.
