Question: Using RCS With Other T-Mobile Phones - OnePlus 6T Questions & Answers

Hi All,
I have a OP6T and my fiance has the S8+. Technically the S8+ has the universal RCS built in now. OP6T should have it too or at least I think it does using android messages. However, I can't seem to get it to work between the two devices. I can never see the read/typing things that we usually get with the Samsung to Samsung phones.
I have tried different apps on the OP6T and nothing. I have heard other people with older OP phones having success with RCS using google messages.
Can anyone explain how to get it working or if it is even possible?

Have you tried Google Message from Play Sore? I have a feeling the built-in message doesn't support RCS.

Is this a phone/ROM thing? I thought the universal profile was on Android 8+.
Thanks for the answers, guys!

Google Voice MMS now supports VZW

Im sure most of you read the news about hangouts now supports vzw mms or vzw finally supporting google voice... regardless, this is great news for me since my primary phone has being my Google voice for a long time.
I'm looking forward to a way of making hangouts being less laggy on the Note, if anyone was able to make it more smooth, please share.

I'm one of the people who think one laggy app can't be the result of defective device. Just makes no sense. Thanks anyway bro

while I tend to agree with you, I have a note 4 on Verizon and hang outs is not lagging for me. If you do a search in xda there are people talking about this problem.

Right... it is weird, it is very laggy on my wife's S5, was laggy on my S5. It is laggy on a G3 I have laying around and also on my Galaxy Tab S. I have a original Moto X and on the Moto X it isn't laggy... I'll keep an eye on the development of this issue, I have 2 year warranty anyway (and never keep a phone for that long) if it turns out to be a defective device I'll replace it.

Thanks for this! I've been giving out my Google Voice number for years and the whole MMS thing has been the one thing I hated about it.
I just tested with a friend who sent me a pic and it got shifted over to email. Not ideal, but since I get email on the phone too it's a lot better than it just disappearing into cyberspace.
I haven't integrated Hangouts with Voice yet so maybe that's why it got turned into an email. I've been hesitant to integrate the two. Does anyone know how to separate them again if I try it and don't like it?

I don't know how to separate them, never tried really but the reason you got the picture on an email is because the Google voice app doesn't support pictures, even back in the day when T-Mobile and Sprint were the only two supported for MMS I think it was received as an email.
Make the jump to hangouts and it will all work fine. By the way, when you switch it to hangouts, you'll have to forward your calls again to your Verizon phone # OR you can use the hangouts app to make and receive phone calls. The calls handled by hangouts are over WiFi or data, like VOIP

I think that guy had more of a serious problem.
I have tested 8 Notes at 4 different verizon stores now and they all have horrible lag in hangouts.

So tell me how you are experiencing lag? as I don't seem to notice any?
When you hit send, the animation is all jerky. On Motorola devices or nexus, it's butter smooth
so you can receive mms messages now via hangouts.. but you cant send a mms via hangouts ... Is this correct?

My understanding and experience so far is you can send MMS, get MMS, whichever. Group messages aren't working, though, so not that kind of MMS!

According to this http://www.droid-life.com/2014/11/10/google-voice-mms-messaging-support-for-verizon-now-official/ , group messaging is being worked on and will "be enabled in a coming update".

Video Calling App

Just realized the stock dialer doesn't have native video calling (that I can find).
What are some good alternatives? I'd like it to be a fully functional dialer / contact app as well.
google dialer has video calling ? well you could use google duo.

So back to he original question. What's a good contact/phone app replacement available to replace the OP dialer. I assume because of TouchWiz I can't just transfer the apk from my old S7 to my OP5 (default Samsung dialer supports video calling natively).

What.. So say Samsung device A and HTC device B both just have a video calling in built to the dialer- not necessarily the same service or app, then you two can video chat!?
That's awesome!!

I am a proud oneplus fan since the first device but recently due to some circumstances I used a Xiaomi device for couple of months. I bought a oneplus 5 and was disappointed to see no video calling. The fact is that we pay for the internet for 1, 2 month or 3 months plan depending on our usage, similar to the plans now being offered by Vodafone and Airtel as well.
The only difference is that Jio provided unlimited Voice calls (over LTE) which other carrier don't (They have started now, but 300 minutes per day is the limit which is reasonable. But the calls are over 2G network only)
The video calling feature that people are dying for is actually a call made over the LTE band. Even if you disable the Mobile Data & Wifi, it works. It works regardless of internet access, which is a very handy feature to have.
The video call will work as long as your LTE network is in range. Now tell me, who won't love this?
You can make a call across devices like Xiaomi, Samsung & HTC, etc.
Please look into this concern and help.
In the US, this "native" video calling isn't in high demand. Everyone on Apple uses FaceTime, everyone else uses either Skype, Duo, Hangouts, etc.
Google is making a big push on Duo. The latest Google Dialer will supposedly support Duo (just Google latest Dialer).
Whatever Dialer you get, it will likely not use your native networks video calling feature. You may have to look into custom roms.
The stocked texting app doesn't even allow for single thread group messages, either!!
On all my Mi volte devices, there is video call option in stock dialer.
Just found Op5 does not!
Well others are suggesting duo, Whatsapp etc., thing is they all use data... While video call on jio, as I was using.... Needed not to activate data.
I use WhatsApp, everyone has WhatsApp unless they've been living under a rock.
free and stable.
A very good video calling app which you can have a look at is: R-HUB HD video conferencing servers. This is easy to use plus offers 30 way HD video conferencing.

Hey boys and girls!
Got a question about features, functionalities and how tos? One offs that don't deserve a full thread? Let's try asking it here.
Let me start.
Anyone know how to have a banner as a notification? One that you can swipe away instead of a little bubble you can expand and have to drag into a little garbage.
Edit: If anyone else is wondering. Found the solution here: https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S10/Pop-up-notification-bubles-S10/m-p/472476#M1495

Does anyone know why it takes 5+ minutes to download a 40mb app. I did a factory reset and the way things are looking I'm looking at about 6hrs to download all my apps. My WiFi is 400mbps so it's pretty fast. I tried clearing the cash for the playstore and play services to no avail. Any ideas?

Same experience here. Did some tests in comparison to my Oneplus 6 which is at least two times faster. I tried with different S10+'s, same results. It's a nice phone, but you have to be patient

Not that I know. I know that good Lock adds functionality to edge lighting but not that function in particular. Maybe someone else could chime in. On a brighter note I saw in a Samsung forum that Samsung was working on giving the lights around the camera some of those led functions. It didn't come from Samsung officially so who knows. That being said RIP phisical LED!

Well that's normal behavior. The only progress bar you'll see is in the app store itself and if you happen to be using one of the apps being updated it might force close. I'm not sure sure what the question is. Maybe a bit more details in regards to what you're trying to accomplish might help. ?

Hi All
Im experiencing a drop in data connectivity once in a while, be it with browser, fb, ig, youtube etc. BUT my 4G icon is still available and present at the navigation bar with full service reception.
I called my provider if there is any issues on their end but they said all is fine up and running.
Anybody having this issues or isit my baseband faulty or some kind? Snapdragon hardware btw. I have hard reset it by using the buttons but still no use.
Im an avid android geek having 3 4 phone changed in a year but this is by far the most frustrated device yet
Please help do i need to turn off some settings or what not?
Hopefully its just a software glitch or something it would be a hassle to send in for investigation.
Did you try a "Reset network settings"? That would probably be my first step in troubleshooting.

Am I blind? Or am I just not seeing how to use the AR emojis in other SMS apps (tried both Android Messages and Chomp SMS)? I'm not a big fan of the stock SMS app.

No need to remove it. After latest update, deleting old scan and setting a new one it works perfect even with "prebuilt" protector.

Depending on the keyboard you're using just press + or whatever you do if you're adding a picture and select the AR emoji you want from your album. Is that not working for you?
Sent from my SM-G975W using XDA Labs
I can do that but I cannot find in gallery, or anywhere else, the AR emojis. It only seems to work in the stock Messages app as it puts a dedicated button for this purpose in the input box.

[Request] Samsung Messages Port

Here's the deal:
I've got a Samsung Gear S3. For the messages app to appear on my watch, I normally need a Samsung phone to pair with, otherwise, the app won't appear, and you can only deal with messages only when receiving one, which is a limited and limiting functionality. The only way I could have it work is possibly by getting a Samsung Messages app, which can only be functional if ported for the OnePlus 6T. If there's anyone who can do such a thing and help me out, I would really appreciate it. Otherwise it's fine. Just thought I'd ask.
Thank you,
Savz
Just go into your S3 and pull the app, then side load it on the 6t, but I'm pretty sure you are going to need more than just the app

The app is hidden on my Gear S3. To become visible, I guess it must detect the Samsung messages app on my 6T, which is the reason I want a port for the 6T.
Mine is working fine with Google messages... Also using Gear S3.
EDIT: Nevermind... I misread your post. Yeah, no creating texts on the watch.

Use Pulse as your SMS app. There is also a Pulse Samsung wear app you can download. Both are free, I use them on my 6t and my Galaxy Watch. Problem solved.

Yeah the apps are free, but I didn't realize that you needed to purchase the account to use the wear app. Sorry I didn't realize that because I have a lifetime license for Pulse but I didn't realize it was required
I bought the lifetime subscription for Pulse and use it on all my devices. Totally worth it! Just do it and you won't regret it!

Joneplus tool call recording have a robotic\slow record

HI all
i have installed the Joneplus tool on my oneplus 5 phone. Everything works good until one day I tried to listen to one of the recordings and the recording sound was bed...the voices sounds like in slow motion and "robotic"
I don't know why the recordings began to be like that ..maybe because I have update my phone to android 10?
how to i solve this issue? ( i already tried to uninstall and reinstall joneplus tool)
TNX
This has been a problem since the Android 10 update AFAIK. Lots of people complaining about it. Hopefully it will be fixed in the update we've been waiting over half a year for.

Honestly there hasn't been any progress I've seen... just more and more people complaining about the same issues and the lack of an update. OnePlus posted an apology on the OnePlus community forums along with some kind of excuse as to why they haven't fixed it in the past 6+ months or whatever we're up to now. I've just been checking the OnePlus community forums once every week or 2 to see if anything comes up but nothing so far.
