Hangouts

I tried installing the new Google Hangouts and it tells me that it is not available for the Note 8! Any ideas why?

Mine says it is installed on my device from the web play store, but it is the Google Talk app. i can't delete Google Talk to see if re-installing the app would work (non-rooted.) Strange.

Google hasn't released a tablet version of Hangouts yet. It will be coming soon though.

Google Talk turns into hangouts after install. I just downloaded the apk from the Web. But I see a download link on xda as well:

Note after I installed the apk, it still had a Google Talk icon. But it turned into a hangouts icon overnight.

I'm using an Archos G9 and all I had to do yesterday was sideload the APK from a mirror (not the Play Store link) and as soon as I finished installing it, it was updated from Talk to Hangouts. So if my crappy G9 can get it, you should be able to get it on that fly-ass N8 of yours! Best of luck!

Did you get this running?
I managed to find an apk and the file that goes with it, installed, but when it comes to the location part on the intro it just freezes on me

Yeah. It runs fine. I really like it.
Did you get version 1.01? That's the updated app.

Yeah I'm running the 1.0.1 version. Always crashes when it asks about location. Could you link me to the one you installed, please?

Sure! Always willing to help a fellow monster! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47364430#post47364430

Thanks, that's the one I've been using. Always crashes when it asks about location I get to this screen and it just freezes with the background music still playing </3

Works for me. What other apps do you have running? Could be a conflict.

Closed everything and cleared with android task killer, still crashing there.

I don't know. I'm at a loss. All that's left is to email the developer. I did that when it stalled at black screen in the first version. [email protected].

Is there anyway to get rid of the red triangle in the 8sms app in my messages
Thanks

Show me a screenshot. I'm not sure about what red triangle you're talking about. It could me a message that failed to deliver

If you install SlimKat rom, theres an option to use the original SMS app...

Sorted you were right it was to do with a message
Thanks for us help
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app

Kitkat for the Nexus 4 already comes with a messaging app. You just have to set it as default.

I uses SMS+ to back up my SMS messages from my old phone to GMail. I can't seem to restore them t 8SMS or Hangouts. Has anyone else been able to restore their SMS messages from another device to their Nexus 5 successfully?

Doesn't send my mms though. It's got potential.

I'm using AOSP MMS.apk and love it. Haven't looked back at hangouts at all. Stupid idea on Google's part.

This app has worked for me for months, now all of a sudden I can't sign in!!
Frustrated!

The Twitter app stopped working after 14/01/14 as reported on Sony forums and Google+ and experienced by myself. As yet no word from Sony as to a fix.

An update that fixes it is live in the play store

Google hangouts

I know this has maybe been mentioned before but are people still having issues with the double messaging bug within hangouts? I've read that its because of low signal and maybe a carrier issue but I have full signal and changed sim cards twice! Surely Google have picked up on this???

I had that issue, too. Using EvolveSMS now and have no problems.

I haven't had any problems since day 1. might be because I'm using team blackout clear hangouts app

I always used the stock hangouts app and I never faced problems with it.

hangouts works flawless here except the rom im using isn't accepting mms pics (ROM issue not hangouts)

Wish I could say the same guys. If you Google 'hangouts sending double messages' you'll see that it seems to be a issue across the board.

I get it randomly from time to time. I'd switch but the video calling is pretty smooth
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Yeah I'm the same. I really like hangouts as my SMS app. Don't want to be changing it.

I've only gotten a double message once so far out of the weeks I've had this phone. Not even sure it was an issue on my end
