Loved the cold open sketch. Subscribed.
Doesn't work for me. Chat settings never show up. Has to be something with Carrier Services, because when I try to force stop it looks like they aren't doing anything and when try to clean cache it is in 0 kb. But Google Messages RCS works fine...
You can install the One UI version of Google Messages now:
czcams.com/video/Ux8UlIZZBro/video.html
So, for whatever reason it decides to stop working can I send/receive normal texts still? Hopefully it works on my S20 ultra (t-mobile)
Yes. In Chat settings there should be an option where you can set if RCS or normal SMS are default.
Annnndddd I'm subscribing! 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Hello, I got the rcs chat features on my settings now but they don't work. I have followed all steps as follows with the snapdragon version but it's still not working. Do I have to wait 8days for it work?
Sorry for the late reply. Unfortunately, Samsung has patched this method, and it's literally up to chance if this method will work for you! :(
Sorry for the late reply once again! Here's the updated version:
czcams.com/video/Ux8UlIZZBro/video.html
Can I put my phone default back to Samsung?
Also how can you tell if you're on your carriers RCS or Google? Does it say somewhere?
Yes, you can!
You will have to test with someome who has Google Messages installed.
So, I have a s10+ and I've been using the messages app forever. Out of nowhere the RCS on both googles messages and samsung stopped working. Not only that but my messages did not send at all. I everything from restarting, uninstaling, clearing data/cache. Now it says chat feature is unavailable for my phone and says registration failed.When chat feature is available it doesnt go past verifying my ph#. The connected sign does not show up
I have the same problem. I haven't found a solution.
I have a Note 20 ultra that I got from Samsung and I was on sprint which is now Tmoble and they gave me a tmoblie sim card for this phone. Well the Note 20 I was told does not have the RCS feature on it so I did the *#*#467 and it worked until an update that I did on January first. Now I cant even get any RCS and I cant even get into the settings after the update any suggestions
Can you try finding the IMS Settings using Activity Launcher (I explained it in the description)?
@@BredzPro I finally got this to work *#77467# the only thing I see is the RCS only. I switch the tmobile rcs and did all the other stuff but it did not work. I tried to follow what prokoph did and couldn't follow it. It was working before the update.
I get it enabled (S21 Ultra G998U1 on Cricket Wireless), but it doesn't seem to actually work. It just toggles on and off without actually doing anything. Any ideas?
also with redmi note s11
Hey so I did this last update and the rsc wont work i know every update meses with the rcs but usually i turn it back on and it works this time it has not turned back on and i have falliwed all the steps. Can you find a way to fix this pleaaaase!
Hello. I am already into it!
Check the pinned comment where I've explained what I'll be doing. :)
When using the Google phone dialer.. neither of those codes worked or allowed me to enable ...on my s21
Me neither as
Same!
You can use Alliance Shield X
Samsung has patched USSD codes, so this may work only on older phones. Sorry about that!
Ya it doesn't work on my S10+
I followed the steps exactly like 5 times, and I get the 'chat settings' menu, but the chat settings don't actually work. Please don't say Samsung patched it because they only patched the Dialer code. I got into ims settings with Alliance Sheild X instead of the Google Phone. But do you have any idea why I would get the chat settings menu in Samsung Messages settings, but then no chat features? I feel like it is trying to connect with carrier RCS instead of Google Jibe, and yes, I did do the device reboot. Please help. Thanks in advance.
It must be the carrier not letting Samsung Messages use the Google Jibe service.
Yeah, but I thought this method didn't rely on carrier RCS; I thought it used the Google Jibe RCS, so it wouldn't matter if the carrier supported/allowed RCS on their end.
Doesn't work for unlocked. :(
after the software update, it appears on my message setting. Chat messages and then ask for registration then whenever i click it stop. why is that? why is it even there in the first place and have to download another apps to work it out
Here's the updated video:
czcams.com/video/Ux8UlIZZBro/video.html
How can I use Google Message to find any message contain text "hey"? Every time I write "hey" in Search i get no results :(
On my S21 Ultra Unlocked in Tmobile it says my carrier does not support chat features.
EDIT: Ok, now it's connected, but the code to enter de hidden menu is not working.
Same
Same
Same.
I though the carrier RCS in Samsung Messages works with the Google universal RCS. Am I wrong?
When I type in the code in dialer, the menu doesn't pop up. Please help
Ok I did everything you said but at the end I don't get any extra settings in "chat settings" and I restarted my phone
Did you make sure to set Samsung Messages as default, before turning RCS in IMS Settings? If not, it will deactivate it.
@@BredzPro nope still didnt work. redid everything too
Hmmmm. I am not sure what to say. Must be your carrier blocking it then?
@@BredzPro then what carrier works with it lol I saw your comments on other people that have att verizon and I have tmobile. So if it doesn't work on those which does it work on 😂
I am assuming unlocked and European models.
Will I lose RCS end-to-end encryption if I do this?
the ims part will not work help please
The code didn't work for me in the dial paid. I typed it twice and it didn't bring up a secret menu. What can I do?
Looks like it's been patched by Google/Samsung for some devices. The closest update to this method is:
czcams.com/video/Ux8UlIZZBro/video.html
Is not available on my S10e with One UI 3.0.
I can't get into IMS Settings on my T-Mobile S21 ultra 😩
Did you try the other method I mentioned in the description?
Also, codes will not work with Janauary and newer security patches anymore. :(
I have a z fold 3 and when I try *#***#467**#*#* nothing happens. I'm stuck here
Doesn't work with new Google Services update.
I can't enable the chat feature because it says my carrier doesn't support it
Christmas is until Jan 6 so you are good
Worked for me thanks for posting
Does this mean i cant customize my messaging app with new themes? It appeared to be the same color scheme as google messenger. Also does the google phone app take over my regular phone app?
It would only activate RCS massaging. This method is outdated as of today.
I am making a video regarding the new Google Messages that is being developed with the One UI theme (check pinned comment for more).
Look forward to it! :)
@@BredzPro does that mean that the google messages would be customizable? N out of curiosity, why cant th regular messaging app on my samsung do any of this stuff. Seems ridiculous in a way
They're already implementing the Material You design (which follows your system's theme colours).
Yeah, Samsung actually accepted that Google Messages is superior, thus they are developing their own version of Google Messages. (In some regions the Galaxy S21 comes with Google Messages as default).
@@BredzPro im not a fan of google but at least something might get done. Cant wait for your video on that!
Updated video is out! czcams.com/video/Ux8UlIZZBro/video.html
Advanced messaging is already on my Galaxy A01 . I don't understand how it picks who can have iChat with. My girl has same phone as me and service but we can't iChat together. I understand your method and want to do it but I may as well just download Google messages, Less work.
Yeah, Samsung should just implement it.
Google Messages works too! You will just have to install it and enable chat features.
@@BredzPro Hey so I tried you're method cause I do like Samsung messaging better. But chat settings didn't come up after I did everything.
Did you make sure Samsung Messages is default before switching on RCS at IMS Settings?
Type that code in dialer & nothing happens on my s21(no hidden menu) ..it just erase the code?
Google (or Samsung) has disabled USSD codes for any software newer than December 2020. :(
Does this means this tutorial doesnt work anymore? :(
is there a new update to do this on the new software after December 2020
Hello. Not yet, unfortunately.
However, I personally suggest using Google Messages from now on.
Looks like Samsung is discontinuing Samsung Messages and developing a One UI Google Messages version. I will show you how to install this special version, so look forward to a new video! :)
Hello! I posted the updated method:
czcams.com/video/Ux8UlIZZBro/video.html
No longer works with the latest update
Hey, I followed all the steps but it didn't work. I have at&t prepaid and I was able to get advanced messaging to show up in settings, but it didn't actually do anything when turned on.
Check out the updated method:
czcams.com/video/Ux8UlIZZBro/video.html
I watched that, but that’s basically a reskinned google messages and my main reason for not switching is because google messages is too zoomed in and I can’t zoom it out enough to be like Samsung messages.
When I dial *#*#..ect no hidden menu pops up
Doesnt work on ATT, only enables Advanced messaging which is the carriers version and not Googles
Must be the carriers not allowing your number to connect to Google Jibe. I will update you if I get to know any new tips!
Does your carrier version work with Google Jibe RCS?
When I put in the code for the hidden menu, the characters disappear, but nothing opens. Any ideas?
Edit: tried the alt. code. Still didn't work.
Google disabled the use of all codes since the December 2020 update.
Thus, I'm putting together another video regarding RCS. Check out the pinned comment for more info!
Sorry for the delay! Here's the updated version:
czcams.com/video/Ux8UlIZZBro/video.html
I have little problem, when i'm typing the *#*#467#*#* it delete it automatically and don't show the IMS menu, do you know what to do ?
Same here
Do you have a Snapdragon device? I am suspecting some carriers may block access to it.
@@BredzPro I have Exynos Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra
That's weird. I did some research and found only these solutions:
1. Don't copy-paste it. Write it.
2. Make sure that after the numbers it's #*#* (not *#*#). So, * # * # 467 # * # *
If it doesn't work, it may be your carrier blocking you from accessing it. Could you try it with another carrier's SIM?
@@BredzPro Don't have any other carrier sim :{
He almost said "To look rich" 🤣
I don't get it. What added features do you get when you enable RCS? You didn't say.
And why does it say "ENTER CHAT MESSAGES" instead of "ENTER MESSAGES"?
If you are familiar with iMessages, it enables iMessages-like features where you can chat with your friends via Internet (and not SMS only).
If you aren't familiar with it, imagine WhatsApp but you have the choice between sending a message via the internet or SMS when no internet available.
"Enter chat messages" is just a way to distinct whether RCS in on or not. If it's off, then you are sending a message only via SMS.
@@BredzPro Got it. Thanks for the reply!
A whole video about... how you can't make Samsung Messages work with RCS in Android 11. The *#77467# code doesn't bring up the IMS Service switch. At least not on my Unlocked US S20 5G (Snapdragon).
Sorry I couldn't be of help.
I updated my pinned comment informing that since One UI 3.0, Samsung doesn't allow accessing the IMS Menu in Snapdragon devices. I will update you asap when I find a solution!
Hmm. I can access the IMS on my unlocked US S20. But after following all steps, it didn't work. But my carrier, Visible (VZW MVNO) doesn't support RCS via the carrier
So after messing with this my Google Messages RCS no longer works. Even tried factory resetting my phone and it still doesn't work. Please can anyone recommend a fix?
What does it say under Chat features in Settings? "Connecting" or something else?
I have a Samsung note 10 plus unlocked. I have service from t-mobile. It says chat features are unavailable for my device. 🤦♂️
This video is a bit outdated.
Samsung is actually developing a custom Google Messages version.
Here's how to install it:
czcams.com/video/Ux8UlIZZBro/video.html
Google phone dialer isn't working anymore is it the same code? #*#*467*#*# ?
Google disabled these codes unfortunately. :(
I have updated the description (or check the pinned comment).
No 'chat settings' in samsung messages (from abt 5min), also a verizon s20+ like another commentor with issues has
The carrier must be blocking you from connecting to Google Jibe. I'm sorry I couldn't help. I will keep you updated if I find anything new!
Same my Verizon S20+ didn't work but google messages does
@@BredzPro yeah no worries not your fault. Appreciate you making vids like this though man 👍
Hey why doesnt that work for kenya
Hello! This method has been mostly patched.
Check out the updated version:

*#***#467**#*#* doesn't work for android 9 s8+ . Pls help
It didn't work for me ill just leave it on Google messages for now til.the carriers fix it the right way
Is it only for the unlocked models 🤔
Hello!
Judging from the other comments, it's different for everyone. Depending on your carrier it may work or not.
If the method on the video doesn't work then unfortunately your carrier or Samsung is probably preventing RCS from working on your device.
I laughed at loud, subscribed after the first joke 🤣🤣🤣
I like this guy🤣
Me too 😆
Hahahahs same
Hi-Bred, for the step of google phone dialer, when i type *#***#467**#*#* it will not open any hidden menu window, i am using Samsung Galaxy NOTE 8
Hello! Google patched it with the December 2020 security patch. :(
@@BredzPro oh ok, so what's the solution or alternative?
Samsung is actually replacing Samsung Messages with Google Messages. They are already developing a custom One UI version of it.
I'll be uploading a video regarding installing the beta of this custom version very soon (pinned comment), so please, look forward to it!
@@BredzPro will they work on note 8
Yes. It should work on anything newer than Android 5.0.
I did everything step by step on my Verizon s20 Ultra. Unfortunately still didn't work.
Sorry about that! Must be a carrier-related thing. :(
Mine did work but Google messages only when dialing for the ims option I can't get that to work. Hard time to get Google message chat setting to work to finally it got unstuck from activating and is working
google phone is not compatible with my device, my phone is Samsung A11 :((( help pls
Open an samsung account.....mine was not working until I opened an account...
It is their strategy to make people open an account..I am on one ui 4.1 and RCS is working smoothly on galaxy f22

What keyboard r u using???
The default Samsung Keyboard + Keys Cafe (www.apkmirror.com/apk/good-lock-labs/keys-cafe/)!

The Google phone menu is not oppening in my phone, I have a Galaxy s9+, with android 10, one ui 2.5.
You must have a build older than Decemeber 2020 for the menu to work.

@@BredzPro so on T-Mobile note 20 ultra Android 11 I can access the ims menu via *#77467# via the Samsung dialer app, but it only shows T-Mobile RCS
Even after rebooting?

Can google phone be deleted?
Yes, you can delete it.
@@BredzPro thx, was just curious if after doing all that, could delete the google phone app and still have RCS. Appreciate the quick reply✌🏼
Oh lord, I thought it would be "Go into settings and turn this on". But it is basically install this, install that, get a degree in software engineering, change this, change that. :) I love my S21, but will likely be going back to iphone when the iphone 14 comes out. Most of my friends use iphones and it feels like I am back in the early 2000s when I get a picture through a text message that looks all pixelated.
Hahaha, I feel you.
The Android ecosystem is still messy or overpopulated compared to Apple.
@@BredzPro And that sucks man, I love how customizable my S21 is. The on screen fingerprint scan is just so sweet, specially when wearing a mask.
But this bs of not having a decent messaging system built into the phone is just kinda of a dealbreaker for me.
I don't really understand why anyone really cares about that. So what if you get a bad picture or video!! First world problems
@@sdfjsd if you dont understand from my comment then there's no point on even trying to explain it to you. Yep first world problems.
@@o.rafaelmoura How do you feel about Apple adopting RCS? Just wondering I don't care either way.
Didn't work I'm Verizon
Same 🙄
If you just force stop the Google messages app it happens by default.👍
Also after the stable version of Android11 this won't work. None of the dialer codes or anything. If I force stop Google messages it does work. But I don't want to use google as a default message app. So I'm back to square 1. But if anyone wants to use Google messages and wants to enable RCS easily just FORCE STOP the app and when you hit open it will show you the options in a message upon opening the app. Ok hopefully I can get it on samsung messages soon. It worked during beta.. and so did WiFi calling. Lost both.🤬🤬✌️
I already updated my pinned comment about the Android 11 thing!
Yeah, Samsung should just release RCS already. 🙄
@@BredzPro agreed
I think they patched this because it no longer comes up.
Yes, it has become very random. It will work for some people, and it won't for some other people.
EDIT: Also, Samsung and Google disabled USSD codes.
unfortunately this doesnt work on my unlocked s21 ultra
Yeah, Samsung patched it.
Samsung is discontinuing Samsung Messages anyways. They're developing a custom One UI Google Messages app. Check the pinned comment for more info!
@@BredzPro good! I actually liked samsung messages but google messages grew on me and turns out rcs as a bug where it stopps working for a while
I have noticed that on mine too. It happens when you, or the person you're chatting with, lose internet connection.
It may be a placebo, but this works for me:
I go to Chat settings where it says Connecting... Wait for 1min. Then close the app from recents and open it again. Check on Chat settings and it'll say Connected.
doesn't work :/
Samsung patched it with the December 2020 update. :(
I'll be uploading an update soon (check pinned comment).

Ever! Same for me
So like basically once I type the *#***#467**#*#* it doesn't do anything it just deletes what I've typed

Aww didn't worked for me...but you earned a suscriptor, hopefully soon must be another way 🤞🍀🤞🍀
All these companies using Android OS should just stop doing too much. They should use the Android messaging app, dialer, file, note, and others. All they need do is come up with a launcher and other non core android apps like Samsung ganes. I like Xiaomi. They use the google messaging app and dialer. Although they put their own file and notes app
This is why Apple is still king. Google should get their act together and make the Messages app cleaner, seamless, and more intuitive. Imagine if all of us from the green bubble club around the world have a unifying messages app.
Apple was never king and still isn't, but Samsung is GOD
Apple is not king by any means, but I agree, they need to make things more seemless and intuitive.
Right with their stolen system. Lol bye apple could neveeeeer
Damn could you just say how to do it instead of all that other isht
