Google is silently blocking RCS messages on rooted Android phones and custom ROMs
androidauthority.com
TL;DR
- Users who have rooted their phone, have their bootloader unlocked or are using some custom ROMs report that their RCS messages are not being sent, even though RCS shows them as connected.
- The Google Messages app does not show any error messages when blocking RCS messages of these users and does not send the messages out as SMS or MMS either.
- Google famously campaigned for Apple to include RCS messaging in iMessage but is now blocking it for certain Android users.

Custom Android versions are not ROMs, they are OSes
plural sucks though
And most flying things aren't drones, they are radio controlled models, but you try getting people to stop using that term.
Android/Custom ROM is the name for them, even if it doesn't mean what it should. It's not that far off as that partition is usually set as read-only, so it kinda is a ROM.
A carry over from the days of dumb phones when a phones software was still on a ROM
Groups of multiple OS's will henceforth be called OS's's (pronounced "oh-essessess").
Oh yesyesyesyesssssss 🥵
Oases?
Aah, perfection.
