Hi there, I have just moved from a N4 to a N5.
I have a problem with hangouts and contacts. If the contact is not saved by the international number format (+country+area+phone) it's not shown as a known contact. It's very frustrating and it didn't not happen using my N4.

Hey Everyone,
My mom recently purchased the Inspire and was using it just fine for about 2 weeks until today when a very odd issue occurred, her phone began sending out and forwarding every single message to contacts on her contacts list example:
I had 10 messages to and from her all of them were forwarded to me and as a result I received a spam of messages that basically replicated an entire line thread of SMS messages. Furthermore, when we rebooted her phone every single contact she had was missing and all of her messages were gone and began to resync from either Google or HTC Sense which I'm not sure she even set up if it even requires it for that matter, anyways once again the phone began to send out messages again and replicated entire threads. If anyone has experienced this problem and possibly knows a way to fix it it would be very much appreciated
I had this problem when I used Bluetooth to transfer from my black berry bold. Going into the messaging app and force closing and clearing data fixed it for me.

I have a problem with Hangouts app. I just don't receive messages on my phone. When I text to a person he receives my message, but it doesn't work the other way around, when he texts me back nothing happens on my phone. And I do receive messages on my computer with Chrome Hangouts extention, problem exists only on my phone. Anyone experiencing similar problems?
I am having this problem too. Very annoying.
I have the exact issue on a Galaxy S (captivate). Makes the app utterly unusable. Running CyanogenMod 10.1. Hope this gets resolved :<
Same issue on my ATT HTC One using custom rom
Having same problem OK a gsm galaxy nexus...
Same here. In my case, I receive the message if I enter the app. This is not usable! I sent yesterday night a hangout to my brother asking why is he not using hangout with me, and today morning I have seen in desktop chrome hangout that he answered: "because you are not answering"

hangouts
Uninstall and reinstall fixed it fixed it for me. This was always an issue with Google plus too. These apps don't like being restored from backup
Did you disabled Google Play Services from sending data on the background? I had the same problem, changed that and Hangouts is working again.
Very annoying that Hangout and Google Play Services are using the same configuration.
Hangouts never worked for me... I dont receive messages or calls. I dont know why I have installed it
Hi everyone,
Had my nexus 5 for about a week now. Love it! But I've had a few comments from three people now, all on different networks saying that they are receiving my texts twice. However, Its not showing up twice in hangouts, nor do I have any other SMS apps installed.
Anyone else experienced this issue?
Cheers!

Yeah, I'm having the same problem. I've been told that it's not every text and I don't see the duplicates on my phone but I've been told by multiple different people. I've started using Go SMS and so far it doesn't seem to send duplicates, but I wish I could just use Hangouts.
Exact same problem with me. Its intermittent but generally happens more often than not. I don't see the duplicates on my phone either. I've not tried go SMS but like you, I just want to use hangouts rather than a third party app.
Hope there's a fix soon!

Hi,
I have same problem with my N5. I use only Hangouts to send SMS. No idea for this problem???
Thx for help.
I havent been told that mine is doing so - can it possibly be a network issue? i'm on T-mo. how about ya'll?
I'm not sure if its a hangouts issue. I installed the jellybean sms app and I've gotten duplicate texts as well from certain people. I actually got 8 of the same throughout the night last night. Maybe carrier related? I'm on sprint
I'm on EE.
I've read that people have had issues with receiving double messages from others. I've also read about people seeing duplicate messages (that they have sent) in their sms app (even though the recipients haven't received duplicates).
This issue is different in that the recipients receive double texts, but I only send one/see one in my phone. It could be a carrier issue, but it seems to be specific to this phone as my nexus 4 didn't do it.

I have Nexus 4 with Kitkat and the same issue, I used Hangouts in 4.3 and was the same. I think it's related to Hangouts app.
delivery
Doesn't really have to do with receiving double sms but I have a question and wondering if it's just me. So I check the delivery reports for every sms but I don't get any notification and Idk what's going on :/
I am on Sprint. Nexus comes in Monday but myself and a few others have been receiving duplicate texts from others not people saying they are getting them from me. I am using hangouts only as well.

Same issue. I get several of the same SMS message from certain people. Other times, I just don't get messages at all. I'm on Sprint also. Anyone else notice anything to resolve this?
Did anyone ever figure this out? I just found out my Nexus 5 is sending duplicate SMS, using Hangouts, just wondering if it's still happening to many others?

It's a carrier issue. Tends to happen in low coverage areas.

Thanks, good to know :good:
Just my opinion...
For me, it's the Sprint / Google Voice Integration I believe. You have us people who use Sprint and did the Google Voice Integration and now Google wants Voice users to move to Hangouts. It seems like Hangouts somehow doesn't realize the Google Voice and Carrier Numbers are the Same and sends texts twice.
I haven't tried but I think going to Google Voice's Setting (via website) and disabling Carrier Integration may help solve the problem.
I have an unlocked US variant S6 SM-G920T with Baseband (G920TUEU3COK1).
I have been using it on Tmobile without issues since Cyber Monday.
But now, randomly, when I get a phone call from a contact that is already in the phone, I see the number on the display rather than the contact name. After I either answer or reject or allow to go to voicemail, and then go look at the call log, the contact name is displayed. This is getting annoying as I keep ignoring calls that I would like to take ( and sometimes need to take).
Only thing I've tried is to clear data and clear cache in the contacts app.
Phone is not rooted. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
Couple of questions:
1) Is it all contacts, or just some?
2) What type of contacts are they? Phone contacts, Gmail contacts or some other account?
All my contacts are stored in Google. So they were synced when I setup the phone. The issue seems to be random, but more often than not. I tried clearing the data in the phone app as well. No luck.
Thanks.
Update: I have just seen that this issue is for all incoming calls when the phone is in a LOCKED state.
When the call comes through while I am using the phone the contract shows fine with the name.
But still no solution in sight.
My phone had battery issues lately causing it to restart every now and then.
One fine day, I lost all my phone contacts. They aren't accessible to any apps, or show up in Contacts. However, if I do a search for contact name in Dialer app, I can see the contact. The contacts are only available in the search part of the Dialer and nowhere else. If I dial the contact, the name doesn't show up in the history or the dialling screen.
Is there any way to restore these contacts?
I got signed off quite a few apps as well, but that's irrelevant for this thread.
For what it is worth, these are the phone specs:
