I think you should get used to Hangouts, because they are encouraging all users to use G+. Talk is not being developed and it will remain unsupported.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] changes13:
Ah, recovery. Where is a recovery flashable talk? I downloaded the apk linked earlier in this thread, but didn't see the recovery formatted one.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] SubMatrix:
I would like to know the same. Any of you guys who said you got it working mind chiming in?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] xnifex:
Look in my post history for the zip, make sure to read the whole post tho. I don't know if Google search & Gmail disappeared due to the flash or not.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Rirere:
You do know that you'll need to reboot for anything you shove into /system/app to show up, right? That might be what you missed.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] blackhand1001:
You don't need to flash it in recovery. Just mount system as read write and copy it into system/app with es file manager. Then reboot.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] looser101:
It's really easy if you have Titanium Backup.

Find Hangouts in TB, touch and hold on Hangouts until menu appears.

Select Convert to user app.

Now Hangouts can be uninstalled since you just converted it from a system app to a user app...

Tap on Hangouts and then on uninstall.

Now exit and install Talk.apk

You are done.

Edit: Don't forget to turn off auto updates in the Google Play Store settings
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] SubMatrix:
I removed Hangouts.apk from system/app, and placed Talk.apk there. I rebooted, and nothing has changed. Hangouts still works and there is no Talk app in my app drawer...:( What gives?

Edit: After another reboot, Hangouts is now gone. However, Talk still doesn't show up as an app, despite it being in system/app. I've also tried just running the apk but I still get the "App not installed" message.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] anirudhcrao:
It works well for me, cheers. :D
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] SubMatrix:
You just moved the Talk.apk that was posted earlier in the thread to system/app and rebooted?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] blackhand1001:
Did you set permissions properly on the talk.apk. If you don't know how to do that, fix permissions in recovery will do it for you.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] stanglifemike:
+1, that's what I was about to say.

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] bailyc:
I also found that the app was disabled when I first rebooted. Talk didn't appear in the app drawer at all, and I had to go in through settings to enable it manually. Mine's successfully up and running.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] SubMatrix:
Thanks I'll check that tonight as well as the permissions.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] SubMatrix:
Argh, still not working. I went into TWRP and fixed permissions, I checked my applications to see if it was disabled. It's not there (in neither Downloaded, Running, nor All). Can you list the exact steps you did?

What I did was:

1. Download the Talk.apk someone posted on the 1st page of this thread.

2. Copied it over to system/app.

3. Deleted Hangouts.apk from system/app.

4. Rebooted

5. Fix permissions in TWRP

I can't find any evidence of Talk anywhere besides the fact the apk still resides in my system/app. :(

Sorry to be so persistent about this, but I really want to get it to work.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] bailyc:
These are the exact steps I took, and mine is working. Try this, and hopefully it works for you.

1. Signed out of Hangouts.

2. Deleted Hangouts. I used Super Manager, but using a root explorer should be the same thing.

3. Rebooted to confirm Hangouts was gone. (Probably not necessary, but I did it anyway.)

4. Put the Talk app in SD root folder. Specifically, the one from JB 4.2.2.

5. Booted into recovery and installed the app there.

6. Rebooted into Android and checked permissions using root explorer. Also just made sure it was installed as a system app.

At this point, I could only see the app in /system/app. It wasn't accessible anywhere else on the tablet, meaning it was disabled.

7. Went into Settings > Apps>All and found the app; selected "Enable"

I'm not sure which version of talk.apk is posted on the first page of the thread. I tried two versions of the Talk app, and the first one (from 4.1.2) did not work at all. The second one from 4.2.2 works fine.

You'll see in this thread that someone on 4.3 had no issues using a 4.1.2 Gtalk app on his tablet, but for whatever reason, I couldn't get it to work. Post #26 of that thread has a 4.2.2 version that worked for me.

And here's the version that worked on my Nexus 7:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=44158878&postcount=26

Hope that helps. Report back if you're able to get it working :good:
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] SubMatrix:
Awesome, followed your steps exactly and it works now :) I used the same zip as you, flashed it in TWRP. Rebooted, and the app was already in the drawer. Didn't even have to enable it in App settings. Finally!

Edit: I lost Gmail and Google Search after flashing the zip, which a user noted earlier. Reinstalled these apps from Play Store and they work fine.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] bailyc:
Great! Glad you have it working. I had totally forgotten about Gmail being lost. I too had to reinstall mine, although I don't recall Google Search being gone. Very quirky, but I guess not as quirky as the Hangouts app, heh.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] xnifex:
sweet I'm glad my version worked for you!

Hmm so it wasn't just me who lost gmail & google search. yeah I have no idea why that happened, maybe I took out some needed files in that zip or something, but easy fix.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] bailyc:
Yep, many thanks! I'm so glad to have Talk working again. The gmail/Google thing was so minor I hadn't even remembered. Thanks for posting up the file for us!
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] xnifex:
the thanks should really go to whoever talked about getting the gapps stuff & modifying the zip file. I am curious why it removes gmail/search tho, but I have no idea how to find that out, so whatever. :p
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] :
Lately, most gapps builds I've seen have gone only for apps that cannot be obtained through the Play Store, which makes sense to me to keep download sizes down.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] xnifex:
I used the gapps for 4.2.2 & there were a few things in there. I went in took everything out that wasn't for Google Talk. It's odd that flashing that removed gmail & search tho.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] ergosum:
Odd, I followed the steps too but it didn't work. I use a LG P990 with Civx Multi Flex rev 3.0. There was Hangouts in the first place. I deleted it with a root explorer, put my old talk apk from my old rom and nothing happen. Installing it throws me a "Application not installed" error. When rebooting or searching for Talk (or com.google.talk) in the settings/apps, I couldn't find it.

I have installed Talk the a zip file and it doesn't appear too! I'm sick of all that.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] SubMatrix:
After getting mine to work, I helped a friend set up his, following the steps exactly. It actually took 3-5 flashes of the zip and reboots before we finally saw the app show up. In fact, Hangouts didn't disappear until a few reboots after the apk was removed from system/app either. Keep trying.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] xnifex:
So now I'm running in to the issue. Since I flashed back to Google Talk, now the OTA doesn't install.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] SubMatrix:
If you've modified system/app (which you have) the OTA won't install. I think what I did was TiBu everything, factory reset, manually flash JSS15Q, and TiBu restore my apps.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] z0phi3l:
Seems like a lot of work and hassle just to install a dead and bad app when there's a better alternative in Hangouts, and no, no matter what the haters say, Talk is in no way better than hangouts, so don't try

Like someone else already said, get used to Hangouts, it's the future and I'll wager that soon no matter what you do Talk will just stop working, and I hope Google does it soon so people stop wasting time on it
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Deeco7:
If that is the only reason for using Talk instead of Hangouts, then I wouldn't bother. In Hangouts you can tell when the person is online whom you are chatting to, this is shown by a small profile pic in the chat glowing when they are online and greyed/hidden if they are not.

Have they changed this recently? You didn't used to be able to tell.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] stevemw:
You can in version 1.1.2.778356.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] SubMatrix:
Cool, thanks for the info. How do they do the sorting, is it still by "most recently contacted"? Or is it by online status (my preferred way, and how Talk operates).
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] xnifex:
Anyone else experiencing an issue where Talk refuses to sign in on 4.4+ ?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] AarSyl:
Yes, I noticed this issue. I have also noticed that it doesn't sign in to 4.3 anymore as well, ever since 4.4 was released.

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] digiboy1:
Or, you people could just install 'xabber' which is a free app in PlayStore and does and looks quite similar to Talk. :) Also, since it's gonna get supported in future.

I have been doing the same and it works well. It integrates with your contacts too!
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] AarSyl:
I'm definitely interested in looking into that.

Any updates on this? Let me note that i've been successfully using the original talk (copied over as a system app) on Nexus7 with Android 4.3 on it, but now it is no longer able to sign in, while the same APK works just find on my pre 4.3 SGS3 ROM.

I see the following line in logcat while attempting to connect:

E/talk ( 8903): [AccountLoginUtils] asyncCreateConnectionForAccount: creating connection failed

I didn't try investigating any further.

About xabber, it is missing invisible mode, as well as audio chat mode, that talk got. Also, it needs your google account password entered in, something i usually thinking twice about.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] vkk178:
One reason to still stick with gtalk is because talk is more light weight compared to hangouts.

Has any one found a solution for this ? .Gtalk stopped working with the same error after few weeks on my 4.3 ROM
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] kerryeberrye:
Hi Guys,

I just got my S4 in the mail yesterday and after adding my Google acct. I noticed I had the cutest bunny lock screen which cooed when petted, cried when punched, blow a kiss when lips are touched, sneeze when nose is touched, and sees stars when forehead is swiped was on my phone. If fed the carrot he spits it out but if fed the soda bottle the phone opens showing a bright orange/yellow version of his face before loading the home screen. (BY THE WAY HIS FACE KINDA LOOKS LIKE MOLANG)

NOW THE DILEMMA:

My 4yr was playing angry birds which for whatever reason froze the screen up. I could not get it to shut down, so after pulling the battery it just started up like new, asking for my language and Samsung account. After adding all accounts previously on I noticed Google only added the app that I added AFTER receiving the S4 (about 6 apps) and my cute bunny face lock screen was gone. I REALLY WANT THAT LOCKER> It is not in my list of downloaded apps in the Play Store and I have tried without fail for 6 hours to Google it in every word variation i could think of to no avail. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

:eek: :( :confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] gtuansdiamm:

Recently, whenever someone calls me, that message pops up. It constantly pops up whenever I make it go away. Decided to restart my Nexus, but it still was there. However, if I press the dialer, the error actually stops and my phone works normally. Is there a particular reason why it does this? And possibly a solution? Without factory resetting?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrasilNut:
Unfortunately, same thing just started happening here, with LiquidSmooth 2.9 on my Tmobile Note 2...

Started when a phone call came in, has not stopped since.

Even after reboot.

Phone is now unusable...

UPDATE - Pressing Dialer actually stops it.

It is just a bit tricky to press OK, then try hitting the dialer button quickly.

But it does seem to fix it.

Can now use phone again.

I am trying to configure my XDA2 to connect to my PC and surf the internet via a BT connection.

[Networking] ferioz:
Why do you need to setup connection for since it's already connected with ActiveSync via BT? Basically once you get connection between your device & activeSync, that's all the step you did. Unless a firewall has stopped your device from accessing to the internet; if it's the case, create exception for your activeSync, and retry browsing with your device.

hope this helps.

But, cause it is a but, Nexus 10 used to have issues with 40Mhz bandwith. I don't know if it still does.
