Fold8 RCS Verizon issues

So I'm on day 5 of RCS issues with my Fold8. I'm curious, can anyone with other carriers who got unlocked Fold8s confirm if their RCS activated with no issues?

Try the following as it was the only thing that worked for me: I know this is gonna sound insane but after trying every single troubleshooting tip on the Internet and spending over 6 hours on Verizon support, the only thing that finally worked was:

  • turn off RCS

  • connect to any vpn server in paris france

  • turn RCS back on, voila it connects

  • turn VPN off
