I thought hangouts disabled non-voice SMS features awhile back. So you can SMS via your hangouts (e.g. "voice") number within hangouts, but anything to do with SMS inside hangouts is not considered "SMS" outside of hangouts—e.g. by the phone device.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] TheAma1:
Ugh. That's what I was afraid of.

I was using Hangouts on an older phone; maybe I was able to skirt around that disabling for a bit...

So basically there's nothing out there I can use as my default messaging app for my GV texts?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] .psd:
Good question and I hope you get an answer to it.

In the meantime, as long as you have the APK for an older version that still integrated SMS, I don't see why you can't just uninstall the version on your S8 and replace it by sideloading the old APK. Or just get the version number and download it from any number of APK archive sites on the web.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] cabegol:
Go to settings/apps and make sure hangouts has all the permissions enabled (including messages). After that, go back to hangouts and try to make it your default messaging whiting the app after you've enabled its permissions. Please report back if this works.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] JDM9499:
Yeah, it's a shame. Google has so many chat products, and can't simplify a simple universal messaging service.

This is a good article about the Hangouts/SMS/Google Voice fallout recently. https://www.wired.com/2017/01/google-voice-update-makes-googles-messaging-strategy-confusing/
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Xelias:
Nah even with all permissions enabled it's still not recognized by the OS as a possible default messaging app.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] TheAma1:
Thanks for the link! It's indeed a real cluster...

I was initially looking into porting my GV number to my carrier (who knows when Google will shut-down GV altogether), but since I still need my carrier's number it's a dead end.

Tried it with current GPlay version (18.0) but still no option available.

The permissions were initially turned off, but even after enabling all of them there was no option in either Hangouts either or the default app section.

Awesome suggestion which seems to have worked!

Well, sort of.

I ended up getting the last version before the official SMS removal (17.0).

Lo and behold, the SMS section appeared in Hangouts' options:

Through there, I selected Hangout as my default SMS app, as well as my GVoice number and account to be the default sender:

I then used Google Assistant to text a contact...

Which ended up using Hangouts (yay) but through my carrier's SMS (boo). It's also two separate threads in Hangouts (one with texts sent via GV, another via the carrier).

So, almost back to square one (the goal being to default-text via GV across the device).

Since Hangouts is the default SMS app, I'm guessing the current issue may be that the vocal command for "texting" is somehow tied to the carrier's SMS in lieu of GV. Especially since Hangouts' SMS default is GV...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] rcatank:
Hangouts is moving support for SMS. Got a notification on my s6 the other day. Messages by Google is the new app specifically for SMS MMS like things now.

I know.....mmmmmm ghey...:(
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] djschny:
I'm in the same boat. I hate native cell text messaging (and test messaging in general). GV has always been the lifesaver for me. But it is a pain that it no longer can register as a messaging app.

I honestly don't care what app is used as long as it routes the SMS through GV and does not require cell connection to be active and messages are stored server side on Google so are searchable and available on all devices.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] 32str8:
Switched to a new phone and was not able to reply to SMS messages via my Google voice number. So I uninstalled Hangouts, sideloaded version 16, set my default SMS app to Google Hangouts through version 16 and it went back to working. I then updated the Hangouts app and it informed me that SMS will no longer work. So I pressed the show me button in the message to close the persistent notification, it sent me to the Android Messaging app that I closed and I can now use Hangouts to send SMS again. Hope that helps.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] preilly44:
I just tried this and it looks like it no longer works. After it forces me to update to the latest version of Hangouts my default messaging app goes back to Messages and Hangouts is no longer an option. Does anybody else have any ideas?

[Mobile Ad Networks] dabrowskiapps:
Hi there,

I am trying to figure out which ad network to use.

I am about to release an arcade - genre Android game, and am looking for an ad network to serve the highest cpms for interstitials and banners.

I want high fill rates, high gauranteed/cpm floor rates, and a low minimum payout since I am just starting.

Anything helps!

Thanks!
[Mobile Ad Networks] FGL_Rozek:
All ad networks have their ups and downs. They'll have a good campaign, then it will end, then later they'll get another, and so on. It's best to have multiple networks and mediate them. That way you get the benefit of the ups, and can mitigate the downs.

Using Enhance®, it has never been easier to integrate 3rd party services into your project or to keep them up to date. (Ads, Mediation, Analytics, Attribution, Crash Reporting and more) With little to NO coding at all, Enhance® will have you ready to roll in a matter of minutes. No more hours of coding! No more SDK integration!

We support many of the top networks and as mentioned earlier there are other 3rd party services that Enhance® supports and offers as well.

What does all of this mean? It means, SDK’s ARE DEAD!!! It means you don't have to spend all of your time implementing or updating SDK's. No more hours of coding just to find out that you don't like a network or a network doesn't work good for you.... Enhance® allows you to quickly swap out SDK's so you can check out different networks more easily! No more time spent just to bring your current SDK's up to the newest version... With Enhance®, you can be done in a few clicks of your mouse…

For more information on the fastest way to implement and update SDK's, follow the link : fgl(dot)io/xt9

Good Luck!

[Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers] heap1000:
Had my P2 a few months now and apart from the notifications not coming through issue it has been great.

Something that has happened know for a while is that I seem to o la connect to H+ and not 4g. Sometimes I do get 4g but very rarely. My wife who is on the same network gets 4g when I don't. I always used to get it at home and work but now. I dont.

If I go I to settings and choose Vodafone 4g instead of automatic it picks it up but after a while I get a error notification saying g no service on the selected network (even though I do have full service), if I put it back on automatic network search then the error message goes but I them go back to H+.

Any ideas?

I had the same problem. I called Samsung and their 2nd tier eventually solved it. I have smart switch installed on a Windows 7 Professional PC.

Try :

Remove USB Cable

Control Panel > System > Device Manager > Universal Serial Bus Controler

Right click on SAMSUNG Mobile USB Composite Device

Uninstall SAMSUNG Mobile USB Composite Device

Close Device Manager/ Control Panel

Open Smart Switch

Click MORE in the top right

Click Reinstall Device Driver

Allow that to process and do next step whilst Driver installs

On S8

Open phone Dial Pad

enter the following USSD code

*#0808#

in USB settings select

MTP+ADB

Click Reboot

When rebooted, reconnect USB Cable to PC and see if it now connects OK

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] AzWizzard:
Noticed on AC, there was a new app for the bixby button...

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dave.bennett.bixremap&hl=en&rdid=dave.bennett.bixremap

When the App is installed and running, when you press the Bixby button, it will bring up Google Now. No option to change it to anything else. There is a slight lag, Bixby will open momentarily once the button is pressed, but Google Now will then open not very long after.

Only issue I found is I can't hit "Back" to exit. When you do, it goes back into Bixby, which in turn, re-opens Google Now. It's a loop. Just have to use the Home button to exit out.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] ewokuk:
Sounds pretty crap to me, slow, probably drains the battery, will need to be running all the time, and only opens google now. Personally I am not THAT desperate to remap it, I''ll just leave it disabled in package disabler pro so the button does nothing.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] AzWizzard:
Yeah, I just tried it and then un-installed it. Just thought I'd pass it along.

Personally, I just added the Google app to my edge screen and use that to open up Now.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] ewokuk:
There is another here which sounds more promising https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s8/themes/app-bixby-remapper-samsungs-patches-t3594085

I still wont use that personally as I would rather not have something running all the time and also have to keep bixby enabled just to remap a button that i can live without quite easily anyway. but that one allows you to map it loads of other functions and doesnt have the loop issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] robber:

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Too51oll:

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] lmanlo:
Yep I'm in the same boat on the bxactions. I tried about 3 before going back to bxactions and still seems to still be the best option. It is fast to open and no lag.

The ones I tried has been:

BixBye worked well was fast but when you tried to use the back button it just did a loop and went back into the assigned app.

Bixby Button remapper had a bit of lag that you would see bixby open and then close and opens up the assigned app. It was quick but you still saw it before it got to do what it needed.

BixbyRemap only used took you to Google Now.

Those are my experience with those 4 bixby remapping apps.

That is the offline charging bug caused by the hardware's reverse charging feature. No solution to date so be careful to not let the battery go below 20% without charging.

Hello, I had a very little progress. I gave up about my asus zenfone max a year ago but glad that now looks like there's a hope in reviving my phone. I was able to download the right files to flash with QFIL. Most people here say that their PC detected QUALCOMM HS-USB QDLOADER 9008 but mine detect it as QUALCOMM HS-USB DIAGNOSTICS 9006. Due to excitement, I flashed it anyway and it created some memory partition on my hard drive whenever I plug the phone but QFIL gave me an error of :

** Download Fail: Switch To EDL Fail Failed to switch to Emergency Download Mode

I tried to google this error, some encountered it and was able to get a resolution by just removing the battery before plugging it in but our zenfone is with non removable battery. I have no luck yet. Anyone got suggestions ?

Hi all,

It's there any way to fix my phone RAM consumption, because it's lag many times.

At the first boot, Free RAM takes 1200MB then down to 350Mb even though clear all recent app usage.

Here my phone detail :

Mi5 64Gb

Android 7.1.2 AICP 12.1-NIGHTLY Build date Apr-17-2017 with default rom kernel.

Any comment are appreciated, Thanks.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] ingrinder:
Android is supposed to keep RAM as full as possible and removes items as soon as more RAM is needed. As the saying goes; free RAM is wasted RAM. Trying to free it up manually will just make your phone slower as it gets confused as to why its cached processes in RAM are being removed, and it will just try to fill it back up again.

If your phone is lagging then something is using up a lot of cpu. However don't use a task killer to stop it! This will just cause android to keep starting the process over and over. The only way to make an app use less cpu is to uninstall it.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] shevaland:

<Possibly n00b question below>

Like many here, I want to root my 2016 Kindle Fire 8 (6th Gen) device but have not searched for the root till now. Due to complacency, Amazon has auto updated it to 5.3.3.0. I know that right now there is no root for that.

My hope is that in the future there will be root discovered for this. In the mean while I do not want Amazon to auto update it. How do I block the OTA updates? I cannot find a relevant thread/howto that explains it.

Kindly recycle bits or help learn how to block these automatic updates to newer FireOS versions.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zzeroge:
Hello, i hope i can get some help or new ideas to try out.

So first of all just to make this clear i didn't come here directly before coming here i almost punched "my" tablet. :D

What i want to say with that is that i searched and tried what ever i could but no success.

My Asus:

Transformer TF101G

Android Version 4.0.3

Kernel Version 2.6.39.4 android@Mercury #1

Build Number IML74K.WW_epad-9.2.2.6-20120525

My Problem With The Asus:

So everything is fine tablet runs it is a bit slow and applications automatically close (minimize) and get messages that the app xxx stooped working.

And when i connect to the internet the tablet starts to download from the internet apps and advertising and +18 apps so by doing this the cpu and ram is used at max and --->>>--- you can't use the tablet anymore ---<<<---

What i want to do:

Is to fully install KatKiss-4.4.4

What i tried:

1. At first i didn't had a USB cable to connect to PC so i hardly managed to install ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.1.3 but in recovery mode when i want to chose .zip from sdcard gives me an error "Can't Mount /sdcard/" = FAILED

2. Second after a while i bought a USB cable but i can't even start to try this method the first thing i have to do is to put the tablet in APX mode but it doesn't go in the stupid APX mode i press VOL up + POWER and hold for 15-20, 30,40,60+ sec but nothing removed battery tried again nothing i did VOL up + VOL down + POWER and hold for 15-20, 30, 40... sec still nothing, i went in recovery did from there all the above things and nothing also tried with tabled ON still nothing USB connected and not connected still nothing.

I have 3 computers 2 win 10 and 1 win 7, win 10 not detecting not doing any song, BUT when i plug the tablet to win 7 it makes my USB ports to stop working and i have to uninstall and give restart to my PC nothing else it doesn't show anything new in my Device Manager.

USB Cable Model OTB-DK001 Made in China from Germany 7.80€

So i think that's all for now any questions ill answer any ideas i will try except for other USB Cable unless you are 90% sure and except for using an hammer on the tablet because its not mine i guess that's why it is still in One Piece (and no not the anime One Piece).

Mhh HELP !!:highfive:
