Since the latest update, when I open the phone app for the first time (or after it shuts down from timeout), a few of my favorites seem to "flash". If this doesn't make sense, I'll try to post attach a video later tonight. Can anyone tell me why this is and how to disable it?
Instructions to reproduce: Click favorites on phone app so it is first to display on reopening. Force close phone app. Open phone app.
So, after playing with this more, I found out that this only happens when I'm signed in to my Duo account. The contacts that flash don't seem to coincide with those who have Duo access, especially since one of the accounts that flash is a landline only account.
So far, I haven't been able to find a fix or a way to disable this. It is super annoying when I'm used to just opening the phone app and clicking on a favorite, only to have it fail because the favorite flashed and didn't capture the touch input.
I agree this is due to Duo....havent looked into it, but yeah its a bit annoying IMHO too!
Seems to be solved in the latest update of the dialer app (I received it this morning): 76.0.431816759

Installed this earlier today. Seems to be working good so far. I like the Auto update option over wifi setting. It also seems to be more responsive than the 3.2 that I have been using.
Sweet, my biggest annoyance with the market was how I could only chose between auto-updating and possibly wasting my data plan (minor I know but I don't NEED the facebook update instantly) and having to manually do it. Love how MIUI has the option.

mine is working good to on MIUI I wonder how much earlier did we actually get this update from other people who will get it from their carriers?
After installing this, I started getting "popup" ads in my status bar. After uninstalling they went away.
Did I miss a setting or something? Lookout scan shows no threat, but I can only assume it was this market given the evidence...
can someone enlighten me on how to install this blasted thing?

You should be able to navigate to it in a file explorer (like rootexplorer) and just click on it to install.
Yeah I figured it out. Search-fu is lazy today lol.

I am on the latest 7.1.2 Verizon build and I noticed when I did a factory reset that in Google+ settings, I no longer have the option under settings to keep the contacts up to date. This option would always keep my user profile picture under the phone settings to stay updated instead of a blank photo. Anybody else seeing this?
Yes, thank you! I thought I was going nuts lol
I just got a OnePlus 3t (my N5x put itself in reboot purgatory) and while trying to set it up, I couldn't find this option for the LIFE of me.
Any idea on how we can get this functionality back?
I really liked how it synced with my G+ profile pic and I never had to worry about it...

Yeah i just upgraded to 7.1.2 on my Verizon Pixel XL and just noticed this. Not sure why this was removed or if it is just located somewhere else. Would really love it back though.

Google removed it a couple weeks ago. You have to load your own image under quick settings account now. As for tracking contacts where abouts you can do it through maps. But the person you tracking needs to set up who they share location with

This fixed worked 100% for me. While it's a bit annoying way to get back functionality, there's really not much to it.
I also tested it by letting the app update from the Play Store, then changing my profile pic in g+ and it updated in android. Win!

On Marshmallow (6.0.1), I was getting "App not Installed" errors when I tried to install the old APK over the new one; had to revert the G+ app to stock (Settings > Apps > Google + - tap top right, then "Uninstall Updates") first to get the older APK to install.

I have the same problem on my Pixel XL running 7.1.2 (NJH47B).
The fix is fine at first, but stops working when I update Google+ to the latest version again.
Funnily enough, this doesn't affect my older devices running Android 6.x and below - my profile picture stays ok regardless of Google+ version.
Help, anybody?
Any luck for anyone?

Anything new ?
I've tried downgrading but as soon as the app is updated the pic disappears, I'm on a Nexus 6P 7.1.2.
The same thing happen on the beta version of Android O.
This is driving me crazy!!!
When my phone is off sitting on a table and it rings, the screen does not come on. Just sound. I thought it was the theme, so I removed it from the dialer app and that didnt help. I removed the update in the Playstore and the screen comes on again when it rings. I removed auto update for the app, but what could be the reason the updated app isn't working for me?
Stock dialer or a custom app from app store?

Your issue has been reported by several others as well. They are doing the same thing you are to make it work. Would recommend you log complaint on play store under the phone app and see what happens. I truly think Google does this to jack with the themeers!

Stock, but I can't take it anymore, so I removed the update and installed Simpler dialer. I can't even disable the stock dialer or the screen won't come on. It's just been removed as default at this point.
I just read reviews for the app and tons of people are reporting it. What a joke!!!

I don't know if this will help or not, but a couple weeks or so ago, the Google phone app was giving me trouble with themeing. It was due to the fact that the theme was actually ahead of the Google update(go figure). So another user figured it out and linked me to the phone app on apk mirror. So I uninstalled the phone app, downloaded the apk mirror version from December 14th, installed it, and it worked great with my theme. What's more is that even after the update from Google, I'm not having the issue that you are, or many others for that matter. Here's the link if you want to give it a go. Can't promise anything, but what the heck :good:

Thanks for that. The dev of the theme I am using replied to me because his theme was not working on the phone app. He told me I needed to install this version
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-phone/google-phone-15-0-179075669-release/
I installed it and applied the theme and it worked. Since the latest update, it doesn't. The version you posted is different than the one he did. I'm half tempted to try it, but at this point I have all the updates off the phone app and using a different dialer and it's working.
Also, how are you uninstalling the stock phone app...all I can do is uninstall the updates and disable.?

I uninstalled it using my root explorer. I just delete the apk, reboot, and gone. Have to be rooted though. If nothing else, just install the apk, then if you wind up with 2 phone apps, just disable or freeze the bad one. Or, just do what your currently doing. The updates aren't that big a deal anyways :good:

Just tried it. Once I apply theme, phone won't light up. Deleted 3rd party dialer, removed theme from dialer you provided. Now I'm using the Google dialer you gave me in stock white blinding form. A bit pissed...
I have the same issue. In my case I have a gear s3, and if I disconnect the bluetooth, when the call is coming the screen turn up normally, but if the gear is connected, the screen stays black..Additional, when you take a call or do a call, the sound automatically is route to the bluetooth device, I have to habilitate the sound in the phone manually. I think it was with the January update or the phone app last update, because other people have the same issue in their android devices. The solution for now is go to Play Store, search Phone app for Google, uninstall the updates, then go to settings in the phone - Apps - Phone, and clear the cache and data, force stop of the app. The phone app come back to another version (12.1...) which doesn't have this issue, after that the calls working normally. I hope for a fix from Google...

Same here, I have to use messenger version 189 to not make it crash. 190+ you have to disable Xposed to enter a chat without the app crashing.
Good for you. Do you have the new messenger UI?

They've already started pulling the new ui because of bugs, but again this has NOTHING to do with Xposed. Unless you're dumb enough to use that module for messenger, then again it's still not Xposed it's the horribly programmed module. I'll end this thread, any of you willing to post a log showing Xposed is crashing messenger, I'll fix it.
I don't use any module. It just crashes for me if I use a newer version than 189. If I disable xposed, messenger works again. It's just not me having this problem: https://www.google.se/amp/s/amp.reddit.com/r/xposed/comments/9lj66j/help_xposed_crashes_messenger/
It's true. Newer messenger versions tend to crash on devices with xposed (regardless what modules are used).
I was not able to even capture a log of such crashes, which is very weird.

I was not able to capture a logcat. It crashed without writing anything to the system log.
Not sure how the latest version behaves as I'm still on some older one.

Are their any Pixel 3XL owners who are on the Google Beta Program? My weather information continues to disappear in the "At A Glance" section. If you've experienced this are there any workarounds aside from unenrolling from the Beta program?
my understanding was this was a server-side issue last time it occurred....but I could be wrong.....I am in beta program and yes have lost weather as of yesterday afternoon. When this happened last month it was all Home devices but my other ones are showing weather still...
If you uninstall the update the weather will come back. If you reinstall the beta update it will work again only for a short time and then will disappear again.

Yeah. On a different, yet related note, I noticed that when in the current Google beta program, long pressing my Pixel Buds and asking for the time or what the weather's going to be like didn't illicit a response, yet asking to play the next track or tell me what's on my agenda would work just fine. When I unenrolled from the program and used the regular Google app everything worked fine. Weird, huh?? I wanted to stay in the beta program so I could use and listen to the Google Podcasts app on my wireless Android Auto Pioneer Nex4400 Unit. I can't do that on the regular Google app
I was on Beta of Google app and my weather disappeared 2 days ago. Funny, I was just searching about this very subject. I had to uninstall the beta version and install standard version then weather showed right away. You can always put the weather app on your homescreen but it takes up more space.
Left the beta today because of this. I want my weather to be there for easy access on the main screen. If and when they fix it, then maybe I'll come back to the beta. Not that they care...lol.
i just added a shortcut on the homescreen until it magically comes back good enuf for me.

Really? "Not that they care". It's beta for a reason. Some stuff isn't going to work correctly. If they didn't care they wouldn't release beta's. It's how Google figures out what if any adverse effects any changes they made have in the real world.

I meant that not that they care if I'm on the beta or not. I'm a software developer myself, I know what "beta" means. I just don't like missing options I use daily.
I believe the new beta that just came out today, v9.0.3.21 solves the weather problem.
nope still broken here after getting the latest beta....

Yeah, that's what I did. I joined again after hearing there was a new update, but it seems like it did not fix according to those here. Mine is still showing weather, but the bug usually causes it to leave after some time. Guess we'll see. If it goes away again, I'll leave the beta again I guess. I like being a member of the beta and getting the new features first, but I do like having the weather there as well.
Edit: Nope. Weather went away again. Oh well, leave the beta again...

I did a cache clear, uninstall update and reboot my phone. Finally updated to the latest beta 9.0.4.21 and the weather is back.

The weather wont update, so i found a solution in reddit
Swipe right to get to the Google screen, then tapping the 3 dots > settings > discover > reset discover preferences.
Hope that helps
