It asks for your phone number, so it might be SMS too, not looked that far yet

I'll look into it!
EDIT: Sadly, g+ only. I was hoping it was SMS too ):

Another Mirror https://www.file1.info/nstyXcW there is no other way for some tablet user (Nexus 7/10 or GTab2) to get the app, but it works on this Tablets.

As of right now it basically replaces Google talk and google+ messaging. Rumer has it that it is eventually supposed to also replace google voice and other messenging things like SMS.

Yeah, it is very beautiful. As of now, it is basically like a really cool ui update of Google Talk.

And updated Google+ is now live too

No contact status? No contact list that reorders based on contact status?
I rolled it back to Talk for now. I can't really stand having a huge list of everyone to whom I've ever written a Gmail. Am I missing something here?

Thanks
Thanks for telling us!
I have no ideia of this "update"

I can't see the big differences from the old app.
Can you send photos and videos or files with it like whatsapp? I haven't found a way to do it.
Furthermore I can't add a photo to my chat profile without having to add it to Google +.
And my contacts that I have pictures of in my contact book are shown without pictures in the chat since they haven't got a picture on Google+.
So far I am a little bit disappointed with these issues and whatsapp will unfortunately still be a more preferable way for me to send messages for a while longer.

"NOTE: If you aren't yet able to install Hangouts on your phone or tablet, or the Play Store "Open" button takes you to the old Talk app, hang tight, we are rolling out Hangouts to everyone over the course of several days. Rest assured Hangouts will be available soon for all Android 2.3+ devices, tablets included!" - From Google

I got it working when it released yesterday. I was having the same problem with it opening to Gtalk.
All I did was used TiBu to wipe data and uninstall Gtalk. I then went to the play store and installed it.

[Q] My phone contacts cannot be visible to whatsapp

Dear all,
I use google account to input my contacts. Now, when I input a contact to my android phone. The contact does not show in whatsapp. I am sure the user is having whatsapp installed. How can I make my contacts visible in whatsapp.
Thanks.

Go to Whatsapp settings>contacts>tick show all contacts.. if the problem persists then try syncing your contacts again with whatsapp servers by going to phone settings>accounts& syn>tap whatsapp account then sync contacts... it will solve your problem...Click Thanks if i helped you.

Hi all , for days now im trying to fix this problem , i tried almost everything but nothing works.
Can't see my contact list on whatsapp , viber , line etc , it just doesn't want to sync. The apps are working fine but i can't see any contacts , i only see the number if someone msges or calls me , and even if i add it manually to my contact list nothing happens.
I imported my contacts from my SIM , synced it with the google account , whatsapp account , everything is up to date.
It might be a ROM problem (can't ask in the development sections need 10 posts )
Im on cm-10.2-20140104-Sultan-pyramid.zip (with ION) (HTC sensation XE)
Last ROM that worked: cm-10.2-20131117-Sultan-pyramid.zip (no ION)
It seems no one has the problem cause no one is complaining about it.
Is there a possible fix? Or it's just the ROM that is not compatible , but why is no one reporting the problem?
(Google couldn't help me, i hope XDA can! )
Thank you very much

Suggestions are welcomed, thanks

I guess i gonna have to try my luck elsewhere , thank you anyways

You can only share your contacts in whatsapp!

Not working with Galaxy Note 4.. Gmail keeps crashing when i'm trying set up my company exhange and my private Outlook accounts...

Try to add a personal email or exchange account. Don't enter an email address and press either next or manual setup and it'll force close (ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException).
I'd guess that the ability to press either next or manual setup should be disabled until a valid email is entered, but with Android 4.1.x it'll allow you to press the buttons every single time.

Don't know if it'll help or not but you could clear data for Exchange and Gmail, or try using titaniumbackup to freeze any existing Exchange apks and freeze/uninstall the old version of Gmail. Surprised that there's problems as it's signed and official (you'd think that upgrades would work fine).

And still no way to disable conversation mode, thanks Google.

Thanks, but no result. After I cleared cache and data it got worse and now it won't even load mails. I even tried removing the built in gmail and exchange and installed the new ones, i when pushed them into system with proper permissions. I think I'll stick with inbox now

No problems here, Note 4

Anyone know why I get 'Unknown issue with Google Play services' error message? I have Google Play services version 6.1.83 (1522025-070) installed. Gmail 5.0 is the only app that gives me this message.
Help will be appreciated. :good:

Getting force close when trying to compose an email. Removed the old gmail and reinstalled but still force close. Anyone else? Reading and pulling emails perfect.
**Edit**
Its the theme engine. You have to use stock holo theme. Any themes will cause a force close on compose.

Whatsapp problems.

Hi, I have problems with whatsapp.
Often I lost my contacts and I need to sincronize it every time.
Any one have the same issue?

Having the same problem… it happens once every 2 days.
Anybody might have a solution?
Thanks

My p8 max was stolen, now I have another p8max, a new one, and I have the same problem.
Maybe it`s the huawei app that controls the application consumption;nI try to configure it, but the problem persisted.

i managed to solve the problem by doing a factory reset. then restoring

I have the same problem. I have to update my contacts sometimes. The App is protected and all permissions allowed.

I think it is the stock messaging app that does that if you use the third party messaging app you won't have that issue

Sorry, I don't understanding.
Whatapp is not a native app.
What do you mean?

I try this before with no luck.
I deleted, and installed again, and nothing.
It seam's that today I solved the problem by updating the app from the huawei market place.
Today I don't need to synchronize my contacts.
I will say you something on a few days.

I was having the same issue then I noticed when I received a text message my WhatsApp contacts would hide. I installed Google Messenger as default messaging app and it fixed the WhatsApp problem. I know its wierd but thats true.

Perfect two ways to fix the problem.

Just install true contacts from play store. Fix the WhatsApp contact issue.

Basically the stock contacts app is the one that cause this issue... so solution is :
- install any other contacts app (I'm using Contacts+ app)
- set the default calling or sms to that 3rd party app
Voila.. problem solved... at least for me..

Sorry Grillote, I have both updated WhatsApp from the Huawei App Store and installed Google Messenger, but the problem persists.
I'll try to install a third party contacts App, as some fellows have suggested.

Google Contacts

Hi ,
Just received my mate 9 from China with GMS Core and Play installed but can't get my google contacts to sync??
Can anyone help asap???
Many thanks!?!

http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...gle-contacts-sync-7-1-1-android-apk-download/
You must download the APK from online sources like this one above and after that, you should have no problem reaching out to your contacts.
Same for the Calendar sync APK file. That should be all that you need.
Have Fun!

Thanks mate! Worked like a charm...

You can also get the Google contacts app there and use it rather than Huawei's contact app.

Thanks.
Just wish there was a decent dual sim dialler as I like to assign sims to contacts as I use my phone for work too.

I saw something on Play store like that, cannot recall app name but it let choose SIM to call from after you click a contact number.

But this is how it works right now.... You press a contact and open o new window asking you which sim to make the call sim 1 or sim 2...
I think that he wants sim association contacts... The only device that work with it is LG G4, LG V10,LG V20 all dual sim...LG is the only device that you can assign contacts to a sim without have to choose every time which sim... But it doesn't has the "Always ask" option...
You can install and try from playstore "true phone diler & contact" that manage both options but some times is getting mess up with stock diler... It will be great if you could freeze or disable stock diler....

When you select a contact in the dialer, it shows the two sims and it tells you also which sim was used last time for this contact. It is not a fixed connection between contact and sim, but for me it is a good approach. I'm not willing to go through all my contacts to connect them to a sim. And probably redo this when moving to another phone.

Thanks Guys. Currently using True Caller. Moto do a great implementation of this...

Try drupe dialer from playstore

Just like to say thanks. Bought the Mate 9 from China Aliexpress with AL00 china model. Having problem syncing all my contacts via the google account. Finally fix the issue with this thread. Thanks again.

I just notice my google contacts are not being synchronized despite having the latest apk installed. I have reinstalled the app giving it full permission and still not able to synch my contacts last synch is dated Feb 11
last update: deleting and re-adding the gmail account fixed the problem

Thanks, I just had same problem with my Mate9 from China; moreover GMS core were not installed and so no Gmail, no Playstore etc. I had to install gms core from Hiapp(in the phone), and after that install all the google apps one by one from the store. Now all run fine! Thanks again

Hi!
I tried this but it keep saying that the App can't open =/
It redirects me to the HiApp version, which is in Google Contacts but with a Chinese Title.
Any ideas anyone?
