I am used to stock Android and the OP9 is my first non Google phone.

 

Seems pretty similar but I am finding if I want to send a message to a service number (like Vodafone's 777) the Google Message app always pops up a prompt like Messaage would like to send a message to 777 This might cause charges on your mobile account. Cancel or Send.

 

I searched everywhere and cannot find an option to turn this off. Anybody have any ideas on how to turn this off as it's really annoying.  Thanks

Nope - no permissions denied.

 

Only applies to short messages, not regular ones

I've posted this answer in another thread with a similar question today.

Can you search for 'premium', from the phone settings?

On the Oneplus forum there's a complaint that the 8 lost the option setting with Android 12.

Guess it might apply to the 9 also?

 

Another reason to go back to Pixel phones and get native Android
