Starting QA

[Julesssss]

The 'New room - Messages appear at the top of the page in chat room ' blocker should now have been fixed with this PR. It was cherry-picked to staging: #6798

[Julesssss]

I closed the second blocker and checked it off, as the unread indicator feature isn't implemented on Android.

[mvtglobally]

Regression is almost complete. We will update rest of the PRs

@roryabraham @Julesssss I think we are good to close this checklist.
