New Hangouts apk - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Thanks to user Luke Olsen for posting this https://plus.google.com/app/basic/stream/z13zsdhwxmeoj3ubg04cixyh5tesidmz3ek it has sms integration that is confirmed working
Sent from my IdeaTab A2107A-F using Tapatalk 4

Well, ergonomics seem as ****ty as always. Can't understand how I choose between SMS and hangout channels. Typing a name brings out hundreds of "google+ suggestions" I have never heard of, instead of bringing out my local google contacts.
What the hell ?

Is anyone else having issues with video calling after installing the new apk?

here is a Fix for the Video chat not working...
download this lib
https://app.box.com/s/5utx4s0okhlq7hq73pu2
and paste it into
/system/libs
you have to have root and a file manager (i used FX File Manager)
this will FIX the force close when trying to do a video chat
Im on Sprint G-Nex Running 10/26 CM Nightly
Hope This Helps

anyone have this working ok in conjunction with the new kitkat launcher/google now? I am getting a lot of hangout FC's. I used the v2 package from this same forum.
Edit: Never mind. Uninstalled the new version and reinstalled and now it's playing nicely.

As far as sms is concerned hangouts works perfectly.

Can anyone receive any MMS?

Yep! I can without any issue.

I just tried with my work phone and haven't received any MMS... Not even in the stock messaging app did I get the MMS
I have no problem sending MMS
I am getting hangout force closes... Randomly

I get FC's with the new hangouts app too but it is only happening with the Google play services update required for the kk launcher

Managed to get a fc when I sent myself a picture. Anyone else?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

Yup fc here

No MMS and random force closes... I have uninstalled and gone back to Hangouts V1....
Really wished it was fully working.. Was liking the SMS integration

Why hasn't Google implemented quick reply to Hangouts yet? That was something I'd hoped would have come with this latest version. The interactive and expandable notifications are cool to see a full message content, but it sucks having to constantly enter in the new Hangouts app vs. just hitting quick reply or read with the CM 10.2 stock messaging app. I guess I was just spoiled.
On the plus side, I was able to receive an MMS last night, but when sending one, I get an fc. Oh well. Most people who I want to send pictures too have Hangouts and I just share a picture with them instead of MMS for the time being till that is fixed, or the official update is released on the Play Store.

Google Voice Integration App

I use google voice for texts a lot and stumbled upon an app that integrated google voice into the stock messaging application of the phone. This is not a standalone messaging application like "Google Voice + Messaging" app, but instead can set the stock app to use gvoice. For those who want to check it out here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...tZHJ0b29scy5hcHBzLmd2aW50ZWdyYXRpb24uZnJlZSJd
It works perfectly except one thing: For some reason I am not getting notification bar notification from the messaging application for new texts received. The texts themselves come in and can be viewed if you open the messaging application but it doesn't send the status bar notification. Can anyone try and confirm this or is it just me because I don't see it mentioned in reviews. As an alternative I just have the default gv app notify me and I use messaging app for actually sending.
The reason why you don't receive your notifications anymore is because of the Google Voice App update. Every time the GV app updates the integration app must be updated also. The developer just stopped. It sucks because it was an amazing application.
There's another one on the market that does the same thing also but it's a separate messaging app themed like the stock one.

Actually, the app works fine in Android 4.0 and 4.1. I have used this app a long time, and it quit displaying notifications with the 4.2 update. So I grabbed the mms.apk from 4.1 and it works fine again. Every time I update my ROM now, I replace mms.apk with the one from CM10 I keep in /sdcard and it works great.

Guys I found this and can confirm that it works:

The only two things I miss are
1) The "read" button that the notification has with the new mms.apk (this one only has quick reply and call)
2) bubbles/quick emoticons since I previously used the mms.apk from here:

Seems like we will need to wait till some fix is done or till Google officially will update the app for everyone

I'm thinking, it's missing a link to another app. Like it's looking for default sms, not actually having sms functionality itself. I saw a thread somewhere that had 4.4 apk pull from the Nexus. See if somebody can find the 4.4 SMS see if it installs then try again.

That doesn't sound right. Not like google to "force you to use" an app.
If that so, then my theory is shot.

Hangouts is pretty much imessage but multiplatform, also kit kat has a new feature where you can get another sms app and make it the default one of you'd like. So it's giving you more freedom if anything.

Google Hangouts with SMS/MMS integration

Yeah, unfortunately, I concur. I also was planning for this to be a more unified client than it is. Instead of merging the hangouts and SMS threads it keeps them separate. I was expecting it to be like the iMessage client for iOS: Data message unless the recipient doesn't have the app or you have no data connection, SMS for the rest

Had the same problem. Once I installed all the other apps from the N5 from droid life the problem went away. May had something to do with the update of play services or launcher

Sorry I was wrong. It is still crashing on me. Didn't realize my buddy was using hangouts and not his default messenger.

Can't get notifications to work when I receive a text, crashes when I send an MMS.
I'll wait for the official one to hit the playstore.

Yeah, installed everything and it still crashes. Can't even get the new Google Now search to work, despite cycling languages as instructed. In a side note, the new keyboard is nice though.

Nope. Just tested this morning and MMS crashes it. Location seems fine for me though.
Come on folks, obviously the new Google apps are making use of the API's in 4.4 that aren't going to work properly on 4.3. This is the reason even something like Maps has different current versions floating around depending what you're running. There's going to be bugs just side loading this from a system image especially for a new app like hangouts that's now being deeply integrated into the system in 4.4.

I'm sure we're all quite aware of that. Thank you for pointing out blatantly obvious things.
No one here is saying "WTF Google why you no make teh hangoutz werk for mah Note before official release?! "
We're merely conversing, seeing if these problems are shared by all, or just some. So pump the brakes and cool your jets.
The simple fact it works
Flawlessly on my wife's Galaxy S3 and not my Note 3 makes me curious and eager to see if there are tweaks on our end that can nudge the software into a happy place.
That being said, constructive and helpful people who manage to find workarounds or anything helpful to get their MMS working without crashing the app, hop in and share!

I'm sticking with Sammy's SMS for now
I like Hangout for Video, and such but for SMS it to me gets mixed up with all the other hangout stuff and I would rather have it separate. For me, I use SMS/MMS WAY more then Hangout, and it's just cleaner to keep it in it's own app. I did try it, worked fine and all. Just like SMS/MMS to be stand along.

I'm the opposite. I use SMS as an alert and rarely use it with other people. I use hangout text all the time. Don't do video much. I'd keep the SMS out of hangout as I prefer it separate.

MMS works between google+ accounts, but not between mobile numbers - Hangouts will force-close whenever I attach a photo to a message going to a phone # (as opposed to a hangout contact).

Seems like if you are in a group message to people on their phones numbers then the messages will go as MMS instead of SMS, When i am connected to WIFI mms does not work hence i have to choose WIFI or group message and i hate it

I got texting to work on a WiFi nexus 7.

But I was wondering if anyone with more experience in android could help.
I installed an xposed module that unlocks the "default SMS" options in settings and in other texting apps like hangouts. Now I used the cyanogenmod voice+ app and linked my google voice, then I went to hangouts and got it to import my existing texts and that worked.
Now this is where it gets weird and I need some help lol its pretty glitchy. I actually receive texts fine, but I was able to send one text perfectly and now I can't send anymore.
If anyone wants to work on this please go ahead
