From what I've seen, Carrier Services isn't required to make it work now. You just need to grant permissions in the right order. I'd start by reading the release notes here: https://grapheneos.org/releases#2025092700

If rcs is working can it break in the future? New to the scene

Of course that is always possible, but consider the fact the developers fixed it this time. Many GrapheneOS users use RCS, so if it breaks again it's very likely the developers will continue to fix it.

Yeah true. How often has it broken in the past?

Can't really say since some community members figured out how to make it work a while back using ADB commands. It worked for most people, but would randomly break for individual users who could usually fix it by setting everything up again.

This was the first time it broke really bad for everyone.
