RCS Messaging (Google Hosted)

Anyone get this ?
Supposedly Google is in the process of rolling it out in the states (it's been in EU for awhile). At this point RCS is Google hosted and used automatically if both parties support it. Otherwise it automatically uses SMS/MMS. The carriers are still claiming to be adding it as well.
You have to enable it in the google "Messages" App (under settings).
At this point all I see is (T-Mobile - Chat features unavailable for this device):

I have it. I enabled it manually via the workaround and got officially updated shortly thereafter. Did my son's phone also. T-Mobile.
Yep. Been on the tech news sites for a few weeks now. Have it enabled on mine, my wife's and a few co workers have done it as well.
This feature only works when you are connected to WiFi and not cellular network.
I've been avoiding the work-around. I'm hoping it'll just show up officially.
I didn't know wi-fi is requred. I just tried again with wi-fi on -> still not available.
I appreciate the responses. I just wanted to make sure it's not an issue with the Axon 10.
Hopefully it'll show up soon.
Thanks.
Yup, Working on our A10 Pro on Cricket.
@samsamha RCS works perfectly on cellular as long as you have cellular data. It does not require wifi.
I had no idea. Whenever I disable wifi and using cell, my status shows connecting. Maybe it was because I enable the feature using guide I found online before google opens this up to everyone.
I actually find it more reliable on cellular because many public/business wifi networks have ports blocked that keep RCS from working.
I just reset my network setting and it indeed is working with cellular connectivity. Thanks for the info, learn something new everyday.
I had it... and now lost it (RCS).
Anyone lost RCS since getting the December Security Patch (1.13)?
False alarm, it seems to be back now.
