Guys tried sms from hangout but when I go to settings in the hangouts app.
It doesn't show me the SMS option whereas I can see the SMS option in
My mobile motog2 which also has the same lollipop versionas of my n9
Now what?
I'm using hangout version 2.5.83281670
I'm using the n9 lte version
Somebody please help
on a tablet you will need to have a google voice account and that its linked to hangouts
Dude... I hava done everything... For reference please check the attached screenshot of my hang out settings
Oh the whole section is missing.
On your phone, under the settings for your account does it list both your phone number and your Google voice number?
i've got the same problem
If you look at Settings > Wireless & Networks > More do you have a "Default SMS app" set? As I understand it until there is a default app set ( the Hangouts app) then in Hangouts > Settings menu will not have an SMS option (just displays your account name and "Add Google account")

For this to work, your GMAIL account needs to have GOOGLE VOICE enabled with a PHONE NUMBER.
I'm not certain, but you might also need to have HANGOUTS DIALER installed.
When you do that, a new section will appear in the settings menu (after the google account synchronizes), BELOW the "HANGOUT NOTIFICATIONS" section, called "GOOGLE VOICE - {your google voice number}". In that new section, you will find two checkboxes; "Incoming phone calls", and "Messages". Add a check beside "Messages", and you will have SMS over Google Voice.

Hi,
I have searched this and other threads for an answer but couldn't find one. Hence the post.
I ported my number over to ATT from Sprint (on which GV was working like a charm).
On ATT Note, when I install GV, I don't get the compose message icon. Nor do I get any voice mails. All my voice mails go to the ATT mailbox. I setup GV the same way as I did on the Evo. I even went to Google Settings and I see my phone number listed there.
Has anyone come across this?
If so, could you please help me out here?
Thanks,
V
When you log into the google voice site does it show Sprint or ATT as your carrier?
if you add the google voice widget it should work..there is a GV toggle widget and there is a full widget that you can read your voicemails and also has a compose button on top right corner..
hope this helps!

When I go to configure voicemail service and choose GV, it gives me a confirm box with an error message saying "Change to new provider?". When I click yes, I get a dialog box which says "Forwarding number change failed"
I'll give the widget a try. Thank you.
Update: The widget didn't have a compose button either
i think you have to reset the voice calls on a pc ..not sure ..sorry i cant help..

No worries. I'll keep looking around and update this post when I get it working.
Go online and deactivate the device. Once that's done, launch the APK and setup like normal.

Mine is working perfectly on the note, but try removing the number from your voice account and delete the app, then reinstall and setup like normal. IIRC there is a confirmation text or something too. If you ported your number from sprint, that may be why it's giving you problems because sprint has the integrated system and at&t is straight forwarding/app.
I did get the same error message when setting up voicemail, but when I went back in to the voicemail settings on the phone, I was able to select it and get forwarding active. Also, in addition to the full widget, you can setup a shortcut toggle to use voice for all calls/international only, etc

If the above solutions do not work, try opening the stock dialer and enter *004*googlevoicenumber#. That's what I had to do.

I had a lot of trouble setting up mine also. I eventually just set up the forwarding manually through call settings. Works fine but I received the same error during setup but works fine anyway.
U was having the same issues. Turned out AT&T Messages was blocking access to forwarding. I called AT&T customer service and had then reset my voicemail settings, and Google Voice starting working the next phone call!
Messages tries to take over every time it runs, so I rooted the Note and deleted it and other Bloatware.

Anybody able to set up Google Voice for voice messaging? Keep getting error messages "failed to retrieve and save current forwarding number settings"

I got it to work by setting it up online at www.google.com/voice. Just go to settings and follow the link to Activate Voicemail. Then back on the device, check off Google Voice in the settings and quickly hit the home button. That should make it work.
This worked for me. To be clear, at the point of choosing voicemail service in call settings, choose Google voice, then hit the home key, NOT yes.

I tried this, but I can't make the notifications to work. Has anyone been able to do it?
I'm able to get callers to get to my Gvoicemail but I also get no notifications or integration into the android phone app...
Hello!
I've installed CM11 on my girlfriends S4 Mini. So far everything's fine, but she's really angry because of a SMS problem. On the original firmware it was possible to send long messages as one "message bulb". Directly from the SMS app as well as over airdroid. Now with CM11 messages are splitted in 160 parts. No change with "SMS Messageing AOSP", "hangouts" or Airdroid. The "SMS Messaging AOSP" app is capable of showing long messages as one message, but viewed in airdroid (wich she uses frequently for having better overview, making backups etc..) they are still splitted up. I saw other messages she wrote on original firmware and they are very long. I think she was able to write up to 3 or 4 sms in one message, wich then of course cost accordingly. But it was possible and normal. I know that at some point SMS got transformed in MMS, wich is more expensive, but she's willing to pay more for the better overview in the history.
Is there any chance to achieve that with CM11?
Thanks
in sms app if u find it >> Click Menu > Settings > SMS Split .. and disable it

What I did
Hi, I had that problem with my I9190, so I rooted the phone, also install the Xposed apk (you must to activate the framework before continue) and finally I use the allow long mms apk for Xposed, then I restarted the phone and now I can send up to 12 mms in one message.
I hope it can help you.
For some reason any text message opens in the messaging app only, any way to at least have an option to use Google Voice?

if your saying use google voice in text messaging app then you can change keyboard to google voice
if your saying for google voice to read your text messages then i dont think thats posible yet,
excuse me for misunderstanding what you wrote doesnt make much sense to me
Sorry, I should clarify... I'm trying to make Google Voice as a "messaging" option on my phone. For example, if the phone recognizes a number and gives me an option to call or text, I'd like to be able to text via Google Voice; right now only the messenger app opens.

i dont think that can be done on a z2' i think a nexus can because its got that google now direct acesss
My old Samsung could do it, the phone just recognizes a second option for messaging (similar to having multiple browsers and clicking a hyperlink). Just not sure about now. Maybe if I uninstall/install?...

If you're up to KitKat, the option to have Google Voice as a default SMS app has been removed......GV and Hangouts are supposed to be merged at some point, eliminating the need for separate apps.
My wife's s21 recently (one or two months) stopped receiving verification text messages from banks/SS etc. When the target phone number is changed to MY phone the messages come through just fine. We are both on AT&T and have the latest Samsung software (mine is a Note 20). We've made sure that there are no blocked numbers in her contacts.
Is there a SIM based setting that can cause this?
Can the carrier block MMS on her line from commercial sources? She can receive MMS from personal contacts.
We've been through the Samsung/AT&T tech support gauntlet but so far have not found the right person to help.
Try installing The Google - developed Messages app on the problem phone and making it the default SMS client.
What app is this???
Messages by Google - Apps on Google Play
Simple, helpful messaging by Google
play.google.com

Thanks. I thought I she was using the Google Message app, but it was the Samsung Message app. I'll let you know if this works out.

Well I tried the Google Messages App and still had the same difficulty
I've had trouble using Google Message's "Chat features", also known as Rich Communication Services (RCS), when my virtual private network (VPN) is active. If I stop or pause using the VPN then RCS seems to work. But with my VPN active the "Status" under Chat features shows "Connecting...". Given the choice between VPN and RCS, I've decided VPN is more useful. So I turn off "Enable chat features."
Try searching using term "Android" "RCS" and "VPN" and you may hit some useful links to read. If you do not use a VPN then you can probably ignore my entire posting.
I just want to be sure: have you made sure that you have made the Google Messages app the default client?
Go into the App Info for Messages.
And then tap on "Messaging app"
Be sure that you have selected the correct icon. (For some dumb reason there is no text to identify the names or developers of the respective messaging apps.)
(See attached screenshots)
