Google is silently blocking RCS messages on rooted Android phones and custom ROMs
(www.androidauthority.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Hangouts was the best thing going for a while there. Of course they had to goog it up.
Hangouts/Google Talk was great when they had federation and allowed 3rd party clients. After they locked that it went to shit.
I miss the golden age when we had AIM, ICQ, or GoogleTalk, etc all on the client of our choosing.
I would go so far as to say Google Chat today is better than Google RCS.
