Man that pisses me off big-time. I remember reading the articles foretelling this six months ago but since nothing seemed to result I wrongly thought merged Hangouts support with SMS would continue.

All it really does it push me enough to finally take the time to find something that supports true end-to-end encryption for messaging.
[Xposed Framework Modules] yakie996:
this is the only reason why I use hangouts,it would be a bad move on there side to remove this function...
[Xposed Framework Modules] Dudebowski:
No dice, dark theme busted again ????
[Xposed Framework Modules] ImADev:
[MENTION=3736806]Dudebowski[/MENTION]

We added that warning because people kept updating Hangouts and expecting XHangouts to still work. It won't because Hangouts is obfuscated.

[MENTION=3704818]jwinstonsf[/MENTION]

The BATTERY_STATS module is for KitKat only and the CM Settings module isn't designed for CM13.

Are you using CM13 nightly or stable? There might be a bug in the version you're using. That or Xposed version 86 has issues on your device.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Dudebowski:
Word... I was just hoping for once Google wouldnt break our mods. This is why we can't have nice things!
[Xposed Framework Modules] ImADev:
Because Hangouts is obfuscated the class names change for every major release. This means that we need to release a new version of XHangouts every time Google releases a new version of Hangouts.

I've added merged conversations back into Hangouts v11 ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] yakie996:
awesome!?
[Xposed Framework Modules] yakie996:
I hope they will add SMS to the new allo app when it laumches

[Xposed Framework Modules] hackel:
I have a feature request for this excellent extension. I would like to receive notifications when I receive a message, even if the conversation is displayed in the foreground.

This always happens to me: I send a message, then set my phone down to wait for a reply. I get distracted or just don't notice when a new message pops up (since I'm not staring at my phone the whole time), then my screen shuts off automatically before I see it. Now I've got a message sitting there that I don't even know about, that Google (thus the sender) thinks I've seen, without even a notification to tell me when I check my lock screen.

Is it just me?
[Xposed Framework Modules] ImADev:
[MENTION=4258709]hackel[/MENTION]

If Hangouts wasn't obfuscated I'd fix it, but because it is it's very difficult for us to locate the bug. It's literally like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

Personally I've got into the habit of always pressing the home button before putting my phone down.
[Xposed Framework Modules] hackel:
Ahh, fair enough. It seems like they're really working hard to turn people away from Hangouts, especially considering recent changes. I really miss the federated XMPP days.

I'll just have to keep training myself to hit home or power whenever I set my phone down. I manage to remember sometimes, but not often enough!
[Xposed Framework Modules] Reddit:
Loving it so far. I've got one request though, could you add an all black theme for AMOLED users? I know you can change the background to black but I think it would look great it the top bar and where you write your messages were black too. Would love to see this. Thanks for the great module
[Xposed Framework Modules] sansnil:
Looks like you're new to the forums so here's a helpful tip: search a forum thread prior to posting to check if your question/comment has already been discussed such as this one.
[Xposed Framework Modules] ImADev:
We could, but if you look at some of the popular dark themes for layers you'll see that they still use colors. They do that because controls can look weird and out of place if they're not separated.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chummy.jezebel.material.dark

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=bitsykolayers.InversionFree

We could add an option to make the status bar and action bar dark so that it matches the input area. I don't think it would do anything for AMOLED users though as it's not totally black, but it might look better?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Cortex7:
Hello this is my fav module for Xposed

There is one feature I'd love to see, and that's dynamic colour themes. I love how on the default Messenger txt app, it assigns different colour themes for each conversation based on their display picture.. or you can manually set it yourself. Is this something easy to add in the future? Thanks and keep up the good work
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
Before you know it you Google will phase out Hangouts completely and we will have a new app called XHangouts that includes all the best features. Lol
[Xposed Framework Modules] yakie996:
is it possible to change the picture of a contact in a conversation even if the person doesn't has a picture (on hangouts) it won't take the picture of the contact information and it will be a green circle with the first letter of the name
[Xposed Framework Modules] bofis:
sigh, of course version 11 breaks the dark theme on the contact list view
[Xposed Framework Modules] ImADev:
I pushed all of the changes to support Hangouts v11 4 days ago, but I can't compile and upload public versions.

Kevin is aware that Hangouts v11 has been released and that I've made some changes. I know that he's often busy, so a new release could take a few days.
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:

This module doesn't work for multiple versions of Hangouts. That's why I recommend people to disable automatic updates for Hangouts.

The XHangouts changelog will always tell you what version of Hangouts it's currently compatible with.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Josey Wales:
Thanks but I didn't need it after all. I just updated the module as I wasn't aware of an update via Xposed. . . for some reason it didn't get that update module(s) available notification(yellow) in Xposed Framework. . .

Xposed has gotten really flaky on showing module updates in my experience. Not sure why. I've start using XDA Labs to help plus it's a great way to read the forums.
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
I'm not sure if the is at all related to xhangouts but... When I take a photo in hangouts and send it, the photo ends up in the root of my sdcard folder rather than the dcim folder. I find this odd and annoying.

I'm using a Nexus 6p, stock rom.

Any insight would be great. Thank you!

When I've got some free time I'll see if it's possible to set a custom path.

None that I know of. We're mainly wanting to maintain the current features.

[MENTION=4681098]Diaze[/MENTION]

Yes.

[MENTION=606633]stevedensmore[/MENTION]

If you've got merged conversations enabled and the contact isn't just a Hangouts contact then you'll see the option.
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
You're awesome, thank you!
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Thank God for this module. Having merged conversations is a must!!! I love you!!!!!!!!
[Xposed Framework Modules] yakie996:
option to auto send picture via hangouts even if sms is sellected?

[Xposed Framework Modules] cavjr08:
Good afternoon. I installed the XHangouts just right now via Xposed Installer, everything went well, but, after I rebooted my phone, I don't see the app icon for XHangouts. I also "maked" the check box on the Module section of Xposed Installer but to no avail. Am I missing something? TIA

I've added support for Hangouts v12 today. Kevin will compile a new version when he's got some free time.

[MENTION=4414044]kpoverdorf[/MENTION]

Hangouts will deliberately dump files in the root directory for compatibility reasons. That and it'll overwrite the files every time you use the feature, so it'll save space.

The file names used are camera-p.jpg, camera-p.mp4 & camera-p.3gp.

Ok so hangouts keeps crashing for some unknown reason. Crashed all the time even before I got this plugin. I'm wondering how I can view the logs or get the logs so maybe I can find out why the heck hangouts crashes every second or just restarts. Any help I would appreciate it.
[Xposed Framework Modules] FaulFels:
Could be theme related. Was the reason in my case.

Running CM13 with a specific dark theme.

[Xposed Framework Modules] stevedensmore:
Must be the latest version of Hangouts, but my notifications stop working after a couple hours. I have to uninstall/reinstall to fix the problem, but it just happens again. I reverted to the prior version with hopes that'll solve it temporarily. Only downside if this fixes the issue, I'll have to deal with constant forced closes the previous version had.
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
I'm on the latest Hangouts with the dark theme and it functions with no issues. Have you tried uninstall, clear cache, reboot and reinstall? Just for ships and jiggles.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Dirtyfrank26:
When I click on a contact and while I'm able to sms or message that person. There is the phone icon. I click on the phone icon to call that person. It then pops up to call using data or cell network. When I chose data, the app crashes. But when I chose cell network, it doesn't crash. Would like to be able to use data. Anyone else have this issue?
[Xposed Framework Modules] ImADev:
[MENTION=2103042]Dirtyfrank26[/MENTION] Does it crash if you disable XHangouts? If it doesn't then go to the XHangouts settings menu and deselect the option to use the enhanced call button.

The issue could be caused by a custom ROM or conflicting contact data. The Xposed log might say.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Dirtyfrank26:
You fixed the issue! I turned off enhanced calling. Where are the logs located? Would like to view what is going on when it does crash.
[Xposed Framework Modules] dannieloco:
Hate to say that "High quality image resizing algorithm" is not as reliable as I hoped for. Some photos send without issue, but if I'm sending pictures from my dropbox, that were shot on my SLR camera, the pic won't be resized appropriately, and the MMS will be stuck on "sending". If I send a picture snapped on my phone's camera, then that will resize and send appropriately without issue. I just wish I could take any photo, resize it and send right away.

Is there a way to check? Some of the pics on drop box are 8-12mbs big in jpg.

The setting I have is 1600x1600 at 99% picture quality. My goal was to send photos at about 1mb in size instead of the hangouts 200kb size pics. I share photos all the time, and hate that 200kb is crappy in quality.
[Xposed Framework Modules] ImADev:
If you open up Xposed and go to logs then it might contain some debug information. You can also use CatLog from the Play Store to save a log after the error occurs.

[MENTION=4721003]dannieloco[/MENTION]

Have you ever noticed that you'll first receive a low quality image and then within a few seconds or minutes it'll improve a lot? That happens because Hangouts will upload the original image to Google while sending a lower quality preview to your contact. The contact will then download the higher quality image when they view the preview image.

XHangouts will render out a higher quality preview image than Hangouts, but it's ultimately Google that controls the size and resolution of the image.

With Allo's underwhelming release let's hope they iterate quickly and don't repeat the mistake that is Hangouts.

I like dark slide menu bg.It seems there isn't any button to change it in your module,nor hte.Is there a future plan?Is there an issue that won't allow anyone to tweak this?Is there some other 3d app that you suggest?Thanx in advance
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kevin M:
I've talked about why Hangouts has "failed" a few times in this thread. To some degree the fact that this module exists and now has over 150,000 downloads is evidence Hangouts isn't doing all it could be. Google didn't make (read: force phone makers) Hangouts the default SMS client on Android. Many (the majority of?) people aren't going to change their default SMS app. Hangouts also needs to be like iMessage in the sense that I can put in just your phone number and start talking with you right away over the Hangouts protocol and fallback to SMS if you don't have it or data is unavailable. Hangouts has merged conversations so the potential is there but Google didn't follow-through as far as I can tell. With Allo's 1.0 release completely devoid of the iMessage-esque functionality we so desperately need my hopes are slipping that we'll ever get there. Five years after the release of iMessage it remains a stark reason to choose iOS and Google has yet to answer.

Are you asking to change the drawer background color?
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:

[Xposed Framework Modules] ImADev:
I'll add support for Hangouts v13 during the weekend if Kevin doesn't beat me to it :)

I've got to say that I was disappointed by Allo. I was really hoping that they'd make it like iMessage, but what we got felt like a stripped down version of Hangouts with an AI. Maybe Google can improve on it by adding Google Voice support and making the SMS experience seamless. I wouldn't hold my breath though.

XHangouts v2.10

v2.10-e3613c7 - 04 Oct 2016 - Stable
-------------
This release introduces support for
Google Hangouts 13.0.134095498

Enjoy.
[Xposed Framework Modules] JRJ442:
Thanks for the update. Hangouts 13.0.134811930 for arm 64 is up on APK Mirror and the update still looks to be compatible. On the next module update can we get a "don't show again" check box on the pop-up so we don't see it after the first time?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kevin M:
That depends on if the module is fully compatible. Generally it is not across version name changes. 13.0.134811930 went up on APK mirror what seems to be moments after I prepped the release of v2.10. In the meantime before ImADev or I get a chance to look at it, I'd stick to the 498 release or compile a version without the dialog code.
[Xposed Framework Modules] ImADev:
I guess I won't bother patching another build until more than 6 variants are uploaded to apkmirror.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Devo7v:
Thanks for the update, everything is working great. Any chance of adding an optional dark version of splash screen to the next version? I know this can be done with CM themes, but I'm not sure if it's possible with Xposed. Thanks for all your work on this great module, you've made Hangouts more enjoyable to use.
[Xposed Framework Modules] 309041291a:
I'm using the app and on Hangouts v13 and it works! BUT... Every time I launch the app it tells me that it's unsupported (even though it works) and it's kind of annoying to have to constantly dismiss the dialogue box. Anyone have any solutions?
[Xposed Framework Modules] ImADev:
I updated XHangouts to support Hangouts 13.0.134095498 last Saturday. It was the second release of Hangouts v13 and it had 3 variants uploaded to APKMirror at the time.

It's been a very long time since Google has released 3 versions of Hangouts with similar build strings, so we'll need to wait to see if this is the "final" version of v13 before we update XHangouts again.

[MENTION=3047491]Devo7v[/MENTION]

Unfortunately the splash screen isn't easy to modify. That's also why we've not included an option to disable it.
[Xposed Framework Modules] 309041291a:
I ended up fixing it by reinstalling the APK. It's weird that it wouldn't recognise the right APK, but everything is fine and dandy now!
[Xposed Framework Modules] JONBOY345:
First, thanks so much for the awesome work (especially for adding back merged conversations).

Just a (hopefully small) request, would it be possible to add a toggle that would force hangouts to use the photo I have set for a contact instead of the Google+ photo? The app is pretty inconsistent with which photo it uses and it's pretty annoying.

So for example, Contact A has a contact photo that I set within the Google Contacts app and also a Google+ profile photo. Contact B doesn't have a custom contact photo but does have a Google+ profile photo.

I'd like to be able to force hangouts to use the custom contact photo in all instances in the app if it exists and if it doesn't to use the Google+ profile photo.

An older version of hangouts did this perfectly, but it broke in some of the recent versions.

Thanks in advance.

This release introduces support for
Google Hangouts 13.0.134811930

Enjoy!

--

I've looked into this multiple times before and it's a huge ugly rabbit hole. From what I was able to find some of the code that actually determines what contact photos are displayed is outsourced to Google Play Services. Hooking Play Services is unfortunately largely outside the scope of XHangouts. Perhaps I could be approaching it the wrong way but it would be a lot of effort for simply getting a different photo to show up. And that's time I do not have. Sorry!
[Xposed Framework Modules] RFrancis:
