It works for me, but did you load Hangouts v13 without a compatible version of XHangouts at any point? That would cause it to unmerge the conversations.

You could try starting a new conversation with the same contact. It should merge everything back into 1 conversation.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Stupifier:
Hangouts text is kinda small.

Any chance of having a way to increase font size in Hangouts? Like maybe in the Theme options. I tried using another Xposed module to increase the DPI, but it didn't seem to work.
[Xposed Framework Modules] aaronmil:
This sounds like exactly what I've wanted from Hangouts for a long time. Unfortunately, this feature of xHangouts doesn't appear to be working for me on CM13 :(
[Xposed Framework Modules] aaronmil:
Oh no! I just updated to Hangouts v13 via the app store, and may have opened it before updating xHangouts. Now I can't get Merge Conversations to work. On Moto X 2013 with CM13. Have tried reinstalling the Hangouts via apkmirror, a few rebooots with and without xHangouts enabled, have tried turning Merge on and off. Let me know if anyone finds a solution. Thanks!
[Xposed Framework Modules] ImADev:
It can be done, but you could use another Xposed module to do it.

App Settings v1.13 supports up to Marshmallow. Just select Hangouts and increase the font to something like 130.

Unfortunately I don't have a compatible device to test with, so I won't be able to fix this.

Try this.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Stupifier:
Another thing I noticed.....While using Black/Dark XHangouts Theming, Notifications are not properly themed. In other words, it is Dark Text on Dark Background.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Dudebowski:
Downloaded latest ..1930 compatible apk via xdaLabs, xposed installer, and github. All "parse error problem parsing the package"

Just installed other 3rd party updates from fdroid so I don't think it's a pkginstaller issue. CM13 20161015 official nightly.

any ideas?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Consumers:
Looked through the settings briefly, but is there a way to switch the SMS timestamp from the time received to time sent?

If not, it would be a nifty option to intended Hangouts behavior. For dropping service or turning the phone or network off regularly, it's inconvenient to check incoming texts for when the sender actually sent them.
[Xposed Framework Modules] sylvn:
Me too, I uninstalled it temporarily, the alerts for incoming hangouts call doesn't show
[Xposed Framework Modules] Damit17:
Has anyone had the issue of not being able to download mms messages
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
In for v14! Thanks for all the hard work.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kevin M:
The error shows when trying to install the APK you downloaded from GitHub?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Dudebowski:
Yeah... But I then noticed it was doing the parse error for any apk, when installed from any file manager. F droid worked, play store would too but not a direct apk install. Looked at log cats saw there was permissions error trying to read apk manifest. Tried all sorts of stuff to try fixing permissions, but nothing worked. I think installing a stock ROM for prl updates corrupted my internal storage partition somehow even though CM was read and writing to it just fine, everything else worked.

Tl;Dr highly unlikely it had anything to do with your code.
[Xposed Framework Modules] bofis:
Hangouts follows the Android system font size setting under Display...
[Xposed Framework Modules] XPLAYMAKAX:
When is the new update going to come out to support the new Hangouts? V211
[Xposed Framework Modules] sansnil:
It's been out for almost a month already.
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
Hangouts v14 is out. I don't believe the current version of XHangouts supports that. Maybe that's what he is referring to.

I'm sure they are working hard to update xhangouts and should have it out soon. Just avoid updating hangouts for now.
[Xposed Framework Modules] stevedensmore:
Does anyone else have an issue with this mod breaking Hangouts push notification functionality on Samsung devices? Unless something was fixed in the latest Hangouts update, my notifications finally started working properly after updating from Google Play store to v14.0.136618992. By the way, I'm still on Android L 5.0.1.

Prior to this, the only way I could get them working normally was to freshly install the app, or restore a TB backup that was made directly after setting up Hangouts after a fresh install. That's something I had to do on an hourly basis to get message notifications, or have Hangouts dialer ring.
[Xposed Framework Modules] G U C C I:
Do you guys mean this version of xhangouts?
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
That's the version I have installed. It is not listed as compatible with Hangouts v14. Unless I missed something.
[Xposed Framework Modules] G U C C I:
Ohh I'm on version 13 still and I'm not getting an update available showing from the play store.
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
Yea, I just got the update notification yesterday. I subscribe to the apk mirror rss feed so I got that long before the play store.
[Xposed Framework Modules] G U C C I:
October 25th?! I wonder why I haven't received it? I literally just updated to V13 2 days ago...
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
No no lol that was that's when I last updated the current version on the phone (v13).

It says v14 is the current version available.

Confusing layout when cropped like that.

... Maybe I'm confused. Who knows.
[Xposed Framework Modules] G U C C I:
Oh so the newest on the play store is v13 but v14 is available on apk hosting sites?
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
v14 is available in the play store for me. I'm sure you will get it soon.
[Xposed Framework Modules] grymkmb:
Google usually rolls out updates in stages, but for some reason updating hangouts takes ages compared to other Google apps.

I often get the xhangouts update before the regular hangouts update, so I install it from apkmirror.com.

[Xposed Framework Modules] joeclark:
Hey I'm just curious, would it be possible to add the merge SMS and Hangouts with this module. I understand that I am apparently the one that used that feature, but if it is possible, that would be awesome.

Edit: ok I'm not sure what I did, other than uninstall the latest update and reinstalled the one before and now i can merge again!

[Xposed Framework Modules] Schrubbi:
I'm patiently waiting for the update to support Hangouts v14 :)

The necessary changes seem to have already been made and pushed in the github repository. So I assume only little testing maybe and the release has to be done to push this to everyone out here.

v14 has greatly improved Hangouts overall performance for me, and I'd love to use it with xHangouts features!

Cheers
[Xposed Framework Modules] pafaf:
You are not Alone,i use too.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kevin M:
Seems possible. I don't have the time to maintain a separate Xposed module but thanks to the permissive Apache license of the project I can pull in some of the Hangouts stuff. The SMSXposed project requires a bit of refactoring (in my opinion) and XHangouts already needs that attention. ;)

Thank you!

It is odd, I agree. It appears as if we'll be seeing a new version of Hangouts in the next few days (first week of November?) thanks to Android Lollipop. I'm going to wait until after that (major?) update to work on additional functionality.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kevin M:
Are you on v1.4.1?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Ferrarilover:
I just updated and it works now, thank you.
[Xposed Framework Modules] jaladhjin:
I wasn't suggesting you bring that module back to life separately..

I was just thinking.. it had Hangouts features.. you're doing Hangouts features..

Could be something worth incorporating if you'd appreciate the functionality as much as I would :D

thanks very much for the consideration ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kevin M:
That's exactly what I was planning on. :good:
[Xposed Framework Modules] cornelljdav:
adding a couple features

I was wondering is it possible for you to add a xouple features to your module? For example a mms toogle that automatically toogles on and off mobile data when sending and recieving mms and a auto save to gallery mms. These features are in some sms apps like chomp sms and handcent. I just would like to see them inside hangouts.
[Xposed Framework Modules] tangcla:
[MENTION=4195957]Kevin M[/MENTION], is there a way that Hangouts can show profile pictures from the Google joined/linked contacts (i.e. Facebook profile pictures) instead of only using what's available on Google+?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kevin M:
This is how I got around it on my phone. Go to the People app. Go to the contact you want. Hit edit on the menu. Tap the photo you want. Tap use this photo. Save. Hopefully that'll work.
[Xposed Framework Modules] tangcla:
I know what you mean, however with so many contacts, it does seem counter intuitive.

Is it actually possible to sync it from the contact though? Since the photo is synced from Facebook daily, it'll capture any changes in profile photos too.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kevin M:
I'm not sure I follow. Hangouts most likely just asks Android for the "default" photo for that contact which is usually set to G+. Do you mean have Facebook be used for all contact photos by default? That's probably outside the scope of this app specific module.
[Xposed Framework Modules] tangcla:
Sort of - if you use the standard Messaging app (or Textra for a third-party option) the contact photo used is the one which is in your contacts - if you have linked accounts, it will take whatever photo is displayed for the contact (whether it's Facebook, Google+ etc).

Hangouts will only use the Google+ photo and ignores whatever is in your contact - is it possible to change this so it will look at the contact for the photo? Hangouts obviously looks at the contact currently, as it needs to resolve names to numbers.
[Xposed Framework Modules] terrorist96:
+1

The behavior goes like this: if your contact has a google+ account, it will show that picture. Most people have a g+ even if they don't know it, through YouTube, etc. So most people have the default 'unknown' g+ photo. If someone doesn't have a g+ account - or you don't have their email address saved - then it will show the Facebook photo. I'd also love to be able to 'force' Facebook photo instead of g+
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kevin M:
I just tried my method and I can confirm Hangouts will use Facebook contact photos after you fully close (often by force) and reopen the app. I imagine it caches contact images in memory. Again, I'll look into a way of detecting if a Facebook photo exists and forcing its usage but it may not be possible if Android doesn't expose that particular data.
[Xposed Framework Modules] tangcla:
So your method will require each contact to be manually assigned a contact photo?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kevin M:
Yes, but it's not so much my method as the way Android operates. Perhaps a separate mod would be in order to change that?
[Xposed Framework Modules] tangcla:
I'm not sure, but maybe - I thought I'd ask here because you've got the Hangouts module happening :)

I'm not sure how Hangouts resolves name (and contact photo from Google+) from the phone number, so in my head it goes something like:

* Phone number = 123456 = John Smith, so show "John Smith" in Hangouts conversation..

* John has a linked Google+ profile, so I'll take the Google+ profile pic (which is in contacts)

* Phone number = 234567 = Jane Doe, so show "Jane Doe" in Hangouts conversation.

* Jane doesn't have a Google+ profile, and even though there's a profile pic taken from Facebook , I'll show no photo.

Now I think the biggest distinction here is that the Google+ photo is actually taken from your Google contact (i.e. you'll see it in www.google.com/contacts ) whereas the Facebook one is just a linked contact - is there a way to fool the device to think that the linked profiles ARE actually part of the profile in the way it looks up the photo? This is a Hangouts-specific issue, as text messaging apps such as the Lollipop Google Messenger will show the linked Facebook pic.
[Xposed Framework Modules] BrutalHoe:
I tried the fix and still have same problem. Tried installing it few way w restarts n what not and pic atill gets rotated, currently o nJasmineROM v2.4.1 rom
[Xposed Framework Modules] raolin7:
Guys, try Haxsync https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mots.haxsync to automatically update Google contacts with Facebook profile pics.

Also, just received the new hangouts update today - haven't tried any mms messages, but it definitely breaks the new line option for the enter key.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kevin M:
Please describe your problem in more detail. Please turn on debug mode and try again. Then post your Xposed log within [code ][/code] tags. You can find the Xposed log in the Xposed Installer.

Haxsync is what I use and combined with the "use this photo" method in the Android People app, works swimmingly for Hangouts.

Hangouts version number please? Can be found in the XHangouts settings. Is it the material Lollipop update?
[Xposed Framework Modules] raolin7:
Yeah, Hangouts v 2.4.78234730
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kevin M:

[Xposed Framework Modules] yakie996:
is it possible to put the quick reply (on versions prior to 7.0) right above the keyboard so you don't have to reach as far to press the sent button, maybe also previous messages like on textra or evolvesms?

Odd, still not seeing it. :(
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
I used to have to manually refresh to get updates to appear. But I can attest that it was available after Kevin updated the thread.
[Xposed Framework Modules] G U C C I:
I have been pressing the refresh button, multiple times actually. Also tried restarting and even refreshed my rom to no avail :/

[Xposed Framework Modules] theredbaron1834:
If you use dvdandroids xposed installer, you might need an update. Notices it sqid an update was available, did it, and xhangouts and gravitybox had an update after. So the update might fix some scraping.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Damit17:
I also have the same problem I did not get the update 2.11 had to go to link and download where as my nexus 5 got it this last update again did not show I had to go to link. I'm not showing any updates for my modules maybe need to look into xposed had this proven since going to res remix marshmallow 1 plus1
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
It appears my SMS won't merge anymore. I even removed and reinstalled xhangouts and hangouts. Everything else seems to be working fine.
[Xposed Framework Modules] ImADev:
I've just checked and I can successfully disable and then enable merge conversations again.

Every time I update Hangouts my existing merged conversations go missing. I end up needing to start a new conversation with the contact which then restores the old merged conversation.
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
That's doesn't work for me. It just opens the existing SMS or Chat convo and still doesn't merge. I've turned merge off and back on, nothing. The last time I upgraded I had to do a bunch of stuff to resolve missing convos. I did that again this time to get everything back but the merge feature doesn't work at all. Well, it does remove the SMS tag from the contact image for the convo. But that's it.
[Xposed Framework Modules] joeclark:
I had to clear cache and force close the Hangouts. Then it was able to reload everything.

[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
Unfortunately, my convos still don't merge after doing that.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Damit17:
I opened Google messenger and made it default sms then back to hangouts and made it default and they reappeared
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
When you say reappear it makes it sound as if the convos are missing. I'm not missing anything.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Damit17:
This last update I was missing all my conversations in hangouts prior updates where ok
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
Yea that happens sometimes but is resolved easily. I'm gonna have to do more troubleshooting if the Dev is saying the merged convos is supposed to be working.
[Xposed Framework Modules] savagealien:
Noticed today that the chat bubbles are no longer themed. Odd thing is that they were OK after the update, it just sort of changed on its own. I tried tweaking the XHangouts settings, ON and OFF etc, but no change. Maybe something Google changed server side?

This is what I see. Incoming is a white, outgoing is a light grey
[Xposed Framework Modules] mattspew:
Same here, it's blinding...
[Xposed Framework Modules] pafaf:
My SMS s arent joined with conversationts anymore, even with the option ativated. ! It does not work anymore, or its just a bug?
[Xposed Framework Modules] grymkmb:
It happened to me as well today. But the funny thing is, that the colors changed, WHILE I was in a conversation. Just Boom, and the colors were changed.
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
I'm at a loss. Merged conversations still isn't working. When I turn it off my chat bubbles lose their theme. I tried completely removing xhangouts, restarting and reinstalling. Any thoughts?
[Xposed Framework Modules] dcdruck1117:
Me too, except that I never noticed themed bubble colors after the update like some are reporting; they were un-themed (white and gray) for me immediately after updating Hangouts and XHangouts.
[Xposed Framework Modules] ImADev:
When Hangouts 14.0.136618992 was released and I was debugging XHangouts I was getting an error on line 389 of UiColorize.java. The weird thing was that a few days later the error went away on it's own and neither myself or Kevin were able to reproduce it anymore.

If you're currently having theme related issues then close Hangouts, enable debug mode within XHangouts and then use Hangouts until you see the issue again. When you do load up Xposed and look at the log file to see if there's any errors that mention Hangouts/XHangouts.
[Xposed Framework Modules] savagealien:
The issue has been ongoing since first appearing, I tried turning Theming OFF then ON here's a sample of the log, it mostly repeats what you see near the bottom, nothing else so far.

Unfortunately that looks perfectly normal. You're even using the exact same variant as myself, although you're probably using a different version of Android.

Custom bubble colors are still working for me, which means that it'll be difficult to fix unless Kevin also has the problem.
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
The theme still works as long as I have merged convo enabled. However, merged convos still don't work. The only tool in my arsenal is to uninstall hangouts (which just downgrades bc system app) and xhangouts. Which didn't help. My log doesn't look to have anything interesting.

Is there anything else I can try?
[Xposed Framework Modules] ImADev:
[MENTION=4414044]kpoverdorf[/MENTION]

You could try to downgrade to Hangouts 10.0.123391178 with XHangouts 2.7.1. It was the last official release to support merged conversations, so it would restore any missing data.

If you can get Hangouts 10.0.123391178 to work with XHangouts 2.7.1 then try updating how I do.

Update to XHangouts 2.12

Reboot your device

Update to Hangouts 14.0.136618992 and start using it
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
Thank you for the instructions. I'm not sure if this worked. I'm missing conversations and the option to convert the convo (sms/chat) isn't available. [emoji51]

---------- Post added at 10:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:06 PM ----------

If I have Hangouts 10 and XHangouts 2.12 everything seems to work aside from the version incompatibility warning and lack of XHangouts in Hangouts menu.
[Xposed Framework Modules] ImADev:
I guess that's after upgrading from Hangouts 10.0.123391178 to Hangouts 14.0.136618992?

It may appear to work that way but a lot won't actually work. Just check the Xposed log file and you'll see that it's filled with errors.

Are you currently using Android Marshmallow 6.0.1 and if you are is it the stock ROM or a custom?
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
Correct, v10 to v14. I can see issues running that version combo, thought it may be notable.

I'm running 6.0.1 stock Nexus 6p.

Again, thank you for your assistance.
[Xposed Framework Modules] ImADev:
I installed 6.0.1 onto an older device today. After everything was set up Hangouts gave me the option to enable merged conversations and all I had to do after that was select "New SMS" to get a merged conversation.

Of course the contact that you want to create a merged conversation with must have both an email and phone number assigned to them. Yours probably do as you didn't have this issue until Hangouts 14.
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
Yea, a large number of my contacts have both. I have the option to enable the merged convos but it just doesn't merge anything. It does however remove the "sms" tag from the SMS conversations. It's confusing. It should work but it just doesn't.
[Xposed Framework Modules] ImADev:
When you select to create a new SMS with the selected contact it should open up an existing conversation and then you'll see a spinner to the left of where it would normally say "Write a message". I can't explain why that wouldn't be working for you as I can only see one class that controls the removal of merged conversations.

I would really like to fix this, but I'm not sure how to without a device that has the exact same problem.
[Xposed Framework Modules] kpoverdorf:
I understand the dilemma. The main issue is when I upgrade to the current version of XHangouts all my conversations (sms and hangouts) are missing. If I start a new sms convo with someone it will pull up only the SMS convo. If I start a hangouts convo I only get hangouts. It does load the old convo but still not merged.

It really is a strange issue and a tad frustrating since I know it should be working fine.
[Xposed Framework Modules] crashfly:
Yes it will be difficult to fix. I was having the same problem with the bubble colors. In trying your suggestion and turning on debug mode, the problem went away. Turned off debug mode and it continues to work. So whatever it was for me, now is working again.
