I’ve been having some issues with RCS not activating and staying on waiting for activation. It was working fine but I swapped to Android and came back to iOS and then it stopped working.

I’ve literally tried everything at this point.
- Reset network settings
- De-registered from Google Messages when I swapped over.
- Deleted the e-sim and re-added
- Factory reset without restore

Contacted advanced tech support for AT&T and they can’t seem to figure it out as well. Is anyone else having this issue because it’s highly frustrating at this point.
 
I'm in the same situation currently. I’m with AT&T and RCS is stuck waiting for activation for just over a month now. I’ve done same things you have like deleting and installing new eSIM, reset network settings, deregistered my number with Google, etc. I haven’t bothered to contact AT&T support because I figure that’s probably hopeless.
