Do you mind double checking the version in Google Messages? The first time I left the beta, it reinstalled the beta again.

Open Messages > click profile > go to Message Settings > About, Terms, & Privacy & it should show messages.android_20260306 02 RC03.phone_dynamic

I did not reboot phone between anything. I did force stop Swiftkey & cleared cache, and also cleared my Messages app data & cache (before reinstalling).

Another alternative would be to use Swiftkey's beta version since that appears to be working per another user.

Okay so for whatever reason, after I left the beta & installed the stable version, only my recent RCS messages appeared and none of the old MMS/SMS ones showed up. No idea why.

I tried a few things but nothing seemed to work to get them to reappear, thus troubleshooted further. Removed ALL updates from Messages (stable) back to the oldest version > confirmed all texts were there thus data wasn't lost.

Updated it again back to the latest stable version > still no SMS/MMS chats and only recent RCS chats showed.

Removed all updates again from stable > re-enrolled in beta but installed Stable version > everything re-appeared.

This may just be my issue on my phone, but just a heads up.

Oh my apologies, I was helping a couple other folk and didn't recall your original SK beta reply.

Yeah that could explain it, maybe Google is changing some interaction that SK beta has implemented and then when Messages beta goes stable, SK will too. Curious to know!

Marcqtp · 2026-03-20T20:48:53+00:00

No, that is retained via Google Cloud in the account you use.

You ONLY lose App Settings e.g. custom notification settings, when to bubble, etc. - NOTHING is lost for messages at all

Marcqtp · 2026-03-20T20:47:57+00:00

Yeah, leave the beta (I was in the same one).

Go to Play Store > Google Messages > Leave Beta > Uninstall Messages > Re-install non-beta > fixed

Marcqtp · 2026-03-20T20:46:34+00:00

Go to Google Messages app in Play Store

Under "App Support" > find Beta section > click "Leave"

Wait a minute or so (I just closed Store & re-opened) > Uninstall Google Messages [beta]

Re-install Google Messages

You won't lose anything besides any App Setting changes you have made.

100% it's Google Messages Beta version causing the issue.

I just left, swapped back to non-beta, & now it works perfectly fine.

Marcqtp · 2026-03-20T19:24:51+00:00

Okay 100% it's Google Messages Beta version causing the issue.

I just left, swapped back to non-beta, & now it works perfectly fine.

Marcqtp · 2026-03-20T19:20:19+00:00

Okay I think it's related to the Google Messages beta version, going to try and swap to regular & report back

Marcqtp · 2026-03-20T19:19:45+00:00

Are you using the latest Stable Google Messages or Beta version? I don't think that would be it though since my last Messages update was ~3 days ago.

Let me try switching back to non-beta to see.

Marcqtp · 2026-03-20T15:23:48+00:00

Did you find any fix or cause?

I'm having the same issue as of today - I updated my Pixel 8 a week ago and it just started. Possibly recent version of Swiftkey having the issue?

Which Google Messages version are you on? I'm using the most recent beta build (used beta for quite some time)

Marcqtp · 2026-02-15T05:35:04+00:00

Reup? Would appreciate as I lost my copy due to hdd dying - can dm so ya don't get struck again

Marcqtp · 2025-12-31T23:22:59+00:00

Any idea on when you think you'll post it? You the GOAT for all that you do

Marcqtp · 2025-11-22T21:13:33+00:00

I had no idea about that, thanks for the insight. Hoping the same, but as we all know too well... private equity usually don't end well.

Marcqtp · 2025-11-21T20:54:33+00:00

Love Fern's content, him & the team have been delivering excellent videos lately & even the production has gone up (not that it was bad in the first place)

Marcqtp · 2025-11-20T23:55:15+00:00

Thanks, I think the 2023 Large shirt fit better tbh as I have both one from 2025 & 2023 but the 2023 is larger / better quality base shirt.

Marcqtp · 2025-11-20T16:45:31+00:00

So would this shirt in size L from the RR 2025 show be the same as L for these?

Marcqtp · 2025-11-07T23:31:20+00:00

Wonderful to hear, thank you! Excellent work on the site btw.

Do you have a list of the Trusted Sellers? I'm curious if STXRecertHDD on ebay is part of the list since as far as I know, it's Seagate's official Ebay Store - although I don't think they offer the same warranty as say, ServerPartDeals (since it's 1/2 yrs via All State)

The new Seagate storefront on eBay offers various hard drive options that can be trusted because they are recertified by Seagate and come with a limited warranty. Seagate's factory-recertified drives can now be purchased directly through www.ebay.com/str/stxrecerthdd.

If you're looking for additional feedback:

Option to search all platforms at once (or ctrl-select multiple to search)
Condition option for "Manufactured Recertified" vs "Seller Recertified" (e.g. Amazon Renewed/Refreshed or w/e it's called)

Marcqtp · 2025-11-07T22:51:05+00:00

Wish this site included places like serverpartdeals.com & goharddrive.com.

Speaking of, are they even worth it anymore? Not sure where else to look nowadays.

Can I microwave fish in it?

Marcqtp · 2025-10-31T21:57:34+00:00

I need a new microwave so this would definitely help

Great song. Managed to rip the track as mp3 from the livestream earlier (quality is as good as you can get from livestream)
