SMS multiple pictures with gallery - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

If I select multiple pictures I cannot SMS them using Google hangouts. This seems like a basic function that should work. Any ideas?

No thoughts? This a deficiency of Google hangouts at the moment ?

I noticed the same thing. On top of that there doesn't seem to be a download option

If your talking about saving a SMS picture that was sent to you I see the option to save if you select the picture and open full screen. Then swipe down and pick save from options menu.

Facebook image downloader?

Is there a app that downloads pictures from within the Facebook app?
Like when you go on a image and click share. The app is in the share list and Downloads the image? I'm sure iV seen something like it before

I wanted to use stock Facebook and just have a downloader add-on, really not a fan of third party Facebook apps

I think most picture resizer apps will integrate via the share button and thus will let you save the image, even without resizing. That's what I used to do.
Yeh pixlr express works great, cheers bud

Try this app

Chrome keeps auto sharing to Pocket with giving me choice?

If I set a default share app in another app, like twitter, Chrome will also use that as a default share app, not giving me a choice in the matter. Why this change?
Same issue here, but I haven't even chosen a default share app. I chose to share to gmail in my twitter app and now most apps are sharing automatically to gmail.

I don't have that issue...both of you mentioned twitter, that's probably to blame

It's still doing it even though I cleared defaults. I don't get it.

I'm having this problem too. Seems to be a bug with Android: https://code.google.com/p/android/i...nd&colspec=ID Type Status Owner Summary Stars
Yes, I have to keep clearing app defaults in settings, because chrome is remembering share settings from other apps for some reason and using it for itself, with no choice.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Same here. Each time I try to share a page with chrome it opens "import to Google drive". The only way I found to get the share choices back is to deactivate Google drive

I'm having the same problem its just copying to clip board not giving me the share via menu at all. Same with the XDA app BTW.

Alright I fixed it. You need to go to Apps I. Settings and go to the 3 dot menu on top right and reset apps preferences like so. Yay!

No offence but you didn't fix anything..you just reset app prefs like most people know. There's still a bug, it just happens again...

That sucks I'm sorry it didn't work for you. Google needs to seed a fix soon too many pot holes in this build for the N5.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Had this problem too but clearing app defaults worked for me. For now anyhow..
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Is there a way to set an app as the default option for sharing? I only want to share to Pocket in Chrome and Twitter etc. Is that possible?

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

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?

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

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 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

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

Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Yes, just download whatever sms app you want and set it to be used as default.
I don't use hangouts, I use hello sms.
Aha ok got it

8sms is based on the aosp messaging app if you're not looking to flash the actual aosp messaging app
