Hey users, I can't figure this out and I've looked everywhere:
Am I the only one with a D851 that has a completely non-functional microphone when it comes to third party apps? (calls through fb messenger, Skype, hangouts, etc)
Regular calls go through fine but this is all that's stopping me from going full-blown 5.0 AOSP on my g3....any suggestions?
Thanks!
I've used several 5 based ROMs with out this issue but I do not use fb messenger, Skype, hangouts - the mic works fine with the various music apps I have and a couple different podcast apps I have.

Is it me, or does the 360 not work with stock apps. I can't get mine to work with either the stock messenger or camera. If I use hangouts for sms/mms and Google camera from the play store, it works flawlessly
I have been reading about Google play and different issues with Google services. I will be receiving the phone tomorrow. Google voice (for the voice-mail and transcribed messages) and Gmail are the only 2 apps from google I care about. Anyone have Google Voice working ?
If so how did you enable it.
Thanks!!
It works ok with play services uninstalled. It never was totally reliable though. About 60% of the time it works, the rest of my calls just go out through the cell provider directly. Also you have to keep it open either manually or with an app as it closes down after a while. On my last android phone it worked at least 90% and it didn't have to be watched constantly.
If you rely on anything google, I would just forget this phone though. It is nearly 2 weeks since the play services update and no word or update from google. Without constant fiddling, my gmail, hangouts, and play store are always broken.
Depends
Depends on your setup. If you are using Gvoice with hangouts, be prepared to be frustrated! If you are using Gvoice stand alone, it will work after a few tries.
Hangouts:
Had it working fine with play services 7.0.9 and Fire OS 3.6.8. I did the manual update to 4.6.1 and it all went to hell.. I gained a bunch of functionality but because I use Gvoice integrated in Hangouts I am constantly having issues. Issues ranging from play services updating all the time and causing notifications, sync and reply to all not work, making it useless.
If you are using Gvoice stand alone, it took me a few tires to get outgoing calls to route through Gvoice.. Download and install the Gvoice app, set it for the call settings you want. I had to do this a couple times before those settings stuck.
Until the play services are fixed this is going to be frustrating. I don't see an end in sight right now seeing as it has been this long and I see no official talk about it.

Well the problem here will be that play services is causing us a lot of problems since the update. Other than that I can't imagine it being a problem. I don't install the Google voice app anymore since I forward the calls and Hangouts does work to make calls from voice number. I can vouch for that.
I got the phone, was able to get google voice installed (had to remove the store afterwards) But it will only show new messages when I open the app, there are no notification.
Is it possible to get notifications ?
Working !!!
Had to re-associate phone with Google voice and then notifications would pop up

I am on the latest nightly but i notice Hangouts crashes every time i go to use it. As soon as i start typing it crashes.
Anyone have a similar issue?
Yep. Everyone does. It sucks.
It seems (That side of it [SMS]), to be working for me.
My problems happen when I want to use it to make calls to the States. In short you can't.
I think your supposed to use Duo for that now, and Allo is the new SMS (Messenger) App. Having that installed, might be why Hangouts seems to be fine here.
But, the writing is on the Wall for Hangouts. Unless you have some for Corporate use Licence (Google for Work), Hangouts is on the way out.
Hi all,
Clean flashed LOS official 14.1 Jan25 and ever since I am not able to make voice or video calls through Facebook Messenger. It just crashes and closes the app. Messenger part works fine, as in no issues sending messages. Rebooted, removed the app, reinstalled but no go. Also if someone calls me and the app is open at the same time, it would also crash it and close it.
Besides this love the LOS
Any Ideas?
Same here with RR 5.8.1
Think its a LOS problem but no answer when/if they are working on it
I have One UI 5 and have been using Cube Call Recorder, but it doesn't pick up the caller's audio when using bluetooth headphones. I know Google stopped allowing apps on the Play Store to use the Accessibility API. So I installed from the Samsung Store and it with seems to use the API, and doesn't require me to install its helper app. It still doesn't work.
I'd be fine with installing apps from the Samsung Store or sideloading APKs.
these may help... https://www.makeuseof.com/record-phone-calls-samsung-galaxy/ and... https://www.makeuseof.com/how-record-calls-google-phone-android/ ... i use the truecaller app, and it is an all-around great phone app, but now they have a notice about google's api change also... i do not record calls often, but now, who knows...
