I have a weird issue with hangouts.... nothing to do with apns.

When I am in another app, it does not matter the app, when I receive a text and pull down to reply, when I exit hangouts I am taken back to my launcher (not my homescreen, the last screen I was on) and I have to reopen the app I was in before.

Anyone else notice this behavior.

M9 snapshot, very very slightly moded stock kernel (did with stock also)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] darklavalizard:
Couple things with MMS, first off after updating to M11 it seems like when I can view the MMS I sent, they are super compressed.

Secondly, sometimes when I send an MMS I don't even see anything that shows I sent it, except for the small box as seen below. Anyone experienced these or have solutions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Yes M11. Stock kernel. What other details you need? Im on the ML1 modem which I have never changed since I first installed when it came out.

---------- Post added at 09:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 AM ----------

Im pretty sure its just a Hangouts thing. It does this to me too, pretty annoying. Also I wish Hangouts had a quick reply feature.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
I updated to m11 and have apn issues. I can't send mms. When I go to the apn section in hangouts I get the attached pic. I am on vwz. How do I fix this? I know its been posted in the past, but I never had this issue so I skipped over it.

Sent from my ghost white SGS3!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Mine looks exactly the same and I have 0 mms issues. Im also using a stock vzw apns file and still have sprint listed, so I dont think anything is wrong there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
When I first flashed and installed M11 I went straight into the stock MMS app and sent a MMS. It worked fine. Then I restored Hangouts (and all my other apps) with TiBU and set an MMS with Hangouts and it worked fine. Try reflashing and using the stock MMS app first to send an MMS then switch to Hangouts

Also make sure ur on LTE not Global under Mobile Network settings
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
When you say reflashing, you mean the ROM?

Sent from my ghost white SGS3!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Yes. Try reinstalling CM M11 and use the stock MMS app to send an MMS before you do anything. Maybe the Rom uses the APN's from the stock app and then the settings stick so when u use Hangouts it doesnt use the MPCS/Sprint ones listed. I dunno. Im not saying this will work for you but it can't hurt to try. Good luck.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
Didn't work, but it did help.....

[MENTION=2963287]mastamoon[/MENTION]

When I did his suggestion, I was able to send using the stock app. When I switched to hangouts, it fails at sending mms.

Ugh...... update.....

Switched back to stock messaging app and cannot send after using hangouts. There must be break in the update of cm11 snapshot.

Another update.....

I sent the same pic (my bad) in both apps and one of them eventually went through.

Sent from my ghost white SGS3!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] funkpod:
OKAY. I can't seem to find the stock messaging app.

I downloaded Hoverchat, and tried to send a mms, a group message specifically.

It asks to set up the APN settings, cuz there were none.

tried auto-detect, but it didn't work.

3 other options,

MMSC

MMS proxy

MMS port.

what should i do?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Im no Dev but it seems to me that the MMS not working in Hangouts has something to do with the wrong APN's listed in the app. Why would it list Sprint/MPCS if we are on VZW? I mean VZW is not even mentioned in the list. Very strange. Even though its working great for me it still seems weird. If Hangouts can't recognize that this isnt a VZW phone then how could it send MMS when its looking for the wrong Network. This is the first Rom that ive ever seen Sprint/MPCS listed in APN's.

Here is my step by step installation process: Flashed CM11, flashed latest PA Gapps Micro (sorry), rebooted. Skipped all set up choices (WiFi, Google log in), went straight into Messaging App (didnt sync my google contacts since I didnt log in at first), typed my GF's phone # in Messaging App, chose a Pic and sent it. Went thru quicker than ever. Then went thru all my settings including logging into Google account. Restored all apps, went into Hangouts chose it to be main SMS/MMS app, sent MMS again (different pic) and went thru just as fast. Since then i've sent at least 20 pics and all is well. I can do a screen record of how fast it sends if anyone wants it, ive never seen anything like it. Also most of the pics I sent were to a ton of different carriers and phones, my best friend has an iCrap phone and even he could send receive to me. All pics sent/received came thru in full resolution, nothing weird.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
Can you do me a huge favor???

Upload your version of hangouts.APK so I can download it. I went back to my Nan of 4-2-14......... I'm gonna edit the apk file.

---------- Post added at 11:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:41 AM ----------

You also, upload your hangouts.apk. thanks guys.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aromig:
Try these:

MMSC:

MMS proxy: leave this blank

MMS port: 80

Sent from my GS3 running PAC-ROM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Here's the Hangouts im using:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
Will not save APNs when you click save. It will remove the APN you are editing. If you add it, it will not show up.

If this don't work I will try yours next....[emoji1]

There must be something different from the 4-2-14 hangouts to the cm11 hangouts....... the old one is on the bottom (12:59)

So my thought process here..... replace the apn file in the new one with the apn file of the old one. If this works, I will upload for everyone. Finger crossed!

---------- Post added at 01:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:37 PM ----------

Ugh. Frustrated.

Gonna try last nights nightly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] funkpod:
Thanks... this might have worked...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TokedUp:
Someone wrote that you can only change one of the options in APNs. If u change too many it won't save. It was posted in this thread a few pages back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
If you need to change more the one option in there, how do you save it? Modify one, save, repeat.

So, I tried changing one by one, no go. Tried adding a new apn, one field at a time and that was a no go. I'm just gonna give up till someone figures a fix or a nightly works.

Sent from my ghost white SGS3!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] funkpod:
Ok, I think that might have worked! It takes about 1 minute to send and about minute or so to receive, so it takes about 3 minutes to send a receive a mms text to myself in a group. Not perfect, but at least it sends.

I downloaded Hover Chat, set the apn to what was posted, use hover chat, and went back to Hangouts. Although I'm not crazy about hangouts, it is a pain using my sms number AND Google voice. I have to switch tabs and stuff. Might as well be a different app, imo.

Anyways, thanks!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] matt_man:
I had the same problem on my Straight Talk S3. I got Hangouts working by only changing the MMSC setting and changing the MNC setting to 000. I left the other settings alone even though they were not correct.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
Allllllllllmost!!!! I got the settings to stick, as soon as you change the 310 to 311 that's when the apn will disappear. So, I left it alone, changed everything like you said and still, just sending. I removed the proxy address and same thing, sending.

So about 3 minutes after I sent it, and deleted it (from hangouts) it went through. Think I will stick with the new ninja app, for now.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
What app are you using? If hangouts, be lucky you can send mms, I can't.

Sent from my ghost white SGS3!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] darklavalizard:
Not hangouts, the stock MMS app. I've had the small box in my conversation threads in the past builds too where I can see the picture I sent if I keep that conversation open and screen on until it's sent. Otherwise if I exit the conversation thread while it's sending, and go back in later to check, I get that box. I had no problem with the 8/24 build and the insanely high MMS picture compression though....:(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
[MENTION=2963287]mastamoon[/MENTION]

Thinking here, was there a commit change for the stock messaging app around this time? Maybe this is why a few of us are having mms issues? I know you can find out, that's why I tagged you.

I've noticed that there have been less nightlies available lately. Hopefully its because of hangouts, I'm not having issues though.

Anyone think they're busting out the MMS fix so its as stable for a final CM11 release for this phone? Then they'll begin on CM12? Or is that not how it works at all...? Haha

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
I need somebody that is having mms issues, probably only in hangouts to try something for me. Need to either use adb shell or the terminal emulator on the phone.

get a shell prompt (adb shell)

get superuser (su)

type setprop gsm.sim.operator.numeric 311480

it should return the same thing back to you right under what you typed. (maybe)

now go into hangouts and try to send a MMS. If it works, try another.

If you go into settings, access point names, you should now see Verizon entry's instead of Sprint and Metropcs. I think im on the right track here, but my trial of setting that prop at boot didnt work out. Trying to get more help from some smarter than me folks.

Let me know if it works/doesn't work for you. Remember, you only need to do this stuff if your having problems sending MMS in hangouts. If your having problems sending MMS in other SMS/Messaging apps, replacing the apns-conf.xml and then reloading apns might be enough.

Ok... we got somewhere!!!! I see all vwz apns now!!!!! I just looked at a bone stock unrooted s3 apn settings in hangouts, set mine for the same, and no go. It would not send.

Just looked at the apns on a s3mini and they are different, they are set like the one in the screenshot. The other s3 she's the vzwapp

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Only other thing to try is do a getprop then scroll up till you see the GSM properties, look for the one that says something like GSM sim. APN.... And make sure it's the same as what you did in set prop.. 311480 or 310012 etc.. If its different, try that value.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
Check PMs please.

Sent from my ghost white SGS3!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Looks like it is the right value for you. Had you done a reset because that prop is back to 31000.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
Yes.... what I did was after all that and it didn't work, I added your XML file, rebooted, hangout settings and saw all the metro and sprint apns are back.

Should I add the original xml file back and look again??

Sent from my ghost white SGS3!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
No I dont think the apns file on the rom have anything to do with it. Hangouts ships with its own apns file built in.

Not sure what the fix is going to be in the end. It's the ril that isn't setting the correct prop which hangouts is using to identify what network we are on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
Do we know where the apn file is located when you install hangouts? If not, do you have a tibu version of hangouts you can upload and I will try that one?

Sent from my ghost white SGS3!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
It's actually part of the app.

You could try just uninstalling/deleting hangouts all together then install the one from gapps. That one had the sms integration but doesn't allow you to see the apns so maybe it uses the system APN or something? Not sure. Mms works fine for me no matter what.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
Ok.... I am ahead of you there, lol. I made a backup of hangouts, I uninstalled through tibu, but when I goto the playstore, it says update. I am doing this all on my phone, how can I pull just the apn from my gapps that I use?

Sent from my ghost white SGS3!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Not APN.. Hangouts. You'll first have to delete hangouts manually, should be in system/app, then pull hangouts.apk out of the gapps zip and install it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
That's what I meant.... sorry. How can I pull hangouts from the gapps?

Ok got it installed.... with your xml file no go, nothing. Here's something weird, I switched back to the stock xml file, tried sensing a pic, and after about 30 seconds it disappeared. Like I never tried to send a pic in the first place.

I am going to try the term commands again and see what happens.

Ok this time the pic did not disappear.

Thinking out loud here, I am using a gapps from back in the day, a 4.4.2 version. Could that be the issue??? It worked on snapshot 9. Also, if that's not it, it should work now. So that's telling me its something to do with the rom. Just a few thoughts..... do you have a gapps for 4.4.4 you can link me to that you use.

Hey Masta thanks for trying to fix this. My MMS is still working extremely well in Hangouts. Though I did run into a FC today from system.phone. Couldn't send an SMS/MMS for a while till I rebooted.

Navigation voice rivalry

Here's a weird one from M11 -

I used google maps navigation for the first time on this build yesterday, and after about 10 minutes of the normal, friendly-sounding voice giving the directions, it suddenly switched to a different voice who sullenly wouldn't call out the street names. A few minutes later, my normal navigator returned, then they swapped a few more times before I got where I was going.

So, I somehow had dueling TTS engines trading off, one of which didn't read the streets. Familiar to anyone?

details:

- Bluetooth connection to my car stereo

-Apollo was playing music in the background, and correctly ducking the volume behind each of the voices

-I had earlier run "Media Button Router" but I don't know if/why that would affect anything.

-I've used CM on this phone for 1.5 years and never had this catfight happen before yesterday.
