Just wondering if anybody else is having this issue.. It's a bit random but I can't seem to work out what's going on.
I am having a few problems with dictating text messages over 3G/HSDPA. When I do it over wifi, it's fine but I just get 'connection error' when I use data. It's a problem that seems to be rearing its head across both Go SMS and the native messaging app and only started recently. I can't figure out when but I think I must have updated something.
Using it to search for a song, search the web or dictate a message through soemthing like Speak to It Assistant has no issues. It is solely something to do with dictating messages but it's driving me mad as this is where I use it most. Does anybody have any ideas?
I'm running ICS Wanamlite ROM with GalaxSih kernel

Hi guys!
I'm running stock KH3 (with Chainfire kernel) and for some reason my Google Talk keeps showing all my contacts are offline.
When I log out and back on, they are online again.
Anyone have a solution?

BUMP! I am having the same issue:
I am running villianrom 3.0 on my S2. baseband I9100XXKG3, kernel 2.6.35.11-ninphetamine-2.0.5....
Google talk keeps saying that I am offline (when in a chat to a person) and that all my contacts are offline (when looking at main contact list screen). Signing in and out resolves it but it is irritating as I do not receive messages or notifications when it happens and I haven't got talk open...
Has anyone else managed to fix this? I'm not sure it is villianrom related or something else, sorry.
It seems the problem is present on multiple devices, so it's likely to be related to Google Talk itself. In order to maximize the efforts to find a solution it's better if we focus on one topic only. The following one seems to have the greater number of replies so far:

Has anybody ran into any issues with google voice and the CM9 roms that causes google voice to pause for a little bit when receiving a notification. Its more obvious when i'm in the middle of typing a message and someone sends a reply before I'm done.

I have that problem on the stock OTA running Sense 3.6. I think it might be a Google Voice issue with threading rather than an OS issue.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note II that has been rooted and uses CleanROM 5.0. Today I noticed that my Google Voice messages are not only being received by the GV App, but also by the stock messenger App. Also, the stock messenger App will reply through whichever source the SMS came in (either Google Voice or Verizon). This surprised me, as I don’t remember ever getting GV messages that way before. Google Voice messages would only go to the GV App. I have also determined that I don’t even need to be logged on to the GV App for this to work. I tried Googling this to see if it was normal. All I could find was recent news of this being achieved by a Cyanogen Mod and there also being an App that will do this. I have neither a Cyanogen mod nor that App. What am I missing here? Why is the doing this for me? In any case, I’d like to use just the Stock App for everything I’d like to know how to make all outgoing messages default to using just Google Voice. Any ideas around why this started happening and how I can control how new messages will be sent?
Answered my own question (mostly)
OK, I found out why this started happening. Somehow I had changed the setting in Google Voice, so that text messages were getting sent my cell phone. So duh.... when I received a text to my Google account, it also was going to my Verizon account, and thus my stock messaging app. I found this out when I saw all the text charges Verizon was billing me for. So now I am using that App, called Stock Messaging Application with Google Voice, It looks somewhat like the stock application- but not quite (I like the stock better). It does catch messages coming in from both Google and and Verizon. I have it set to reply to all through Google- which it does. This is mostly what I wanted to do- the problem is, it's a little buggy. Sometimes a message won't go in or out. And as I said, I still like the stock app better.
So I still have a remaining question. Does anyone know if, or when, the breakthrough of this from July (for Cyanogen Mod) is showing up for other ROMS?

Just posting to let you know I am following your thread and I'm interested in the results as well. Let's hope somebody comes along with some more information. Do you have a link to that app?

Glad to see someone else cares- I was actually kind of surprised by the lack of feedback/interest in this. I would have guessed this would be of more interest to people....oh well.
The app I was referring to can be found on the Google Play Store- it is called "Messaging + Google Voice", the developer is Troxie.net
This board won't let me post the link.
The problem with this app is that it seems a little buggy. Sometimes messages don't send or receive- but in general it does what it says. I have also found the Text for Free service by Pinger works pretty well with the stock messaging. You can set it so that all of your cell phone service based texts will also go into the Text for Free app. Then when you reply, the outgoing message will go through text for free. However, this is a separate number- not a Google Voice number.

I actually use the Sprint integration with Google Voice, so I am using only one phone number, my Sprint mobile number. I am really just trying to set it up so that if I am at my PC and I send an SMS with the web interface, that message will also be displayed on my phone. Right now, I can see that message in my google voice app, but not any third party SMS app (like Textra, which I use). I want to be able to use Textra to send all my SMS and MMS, and have it sync any messages I send using the google voice web interface as well.
I've been using Google Hangouts to send SMS on my Sprint Note 3 for awhile now with little to no issues. That changed however with the recent Google Voice integration into Hangouts. Now, each time I try to send a text message, the message is received multiple times by the recipient, although I only see it sent once. Occasionally, the recipient will get anywhere from fifteen to twenty instances of the same message.
My Google Voice number is the same as my carrier number, which has never proven to be an issue before, but now I'm wondering if that's the culprit. I've searched all over for an answer to this particular issue, and it seems like I'm in the minority (so far).
Anyone else having a similar problem? It's more of an annoyance than anything, but I'd rather not be blasting out dozens of messages to my contacts if I don't have to.
Thanks.

I am having the EXACT same issue as you descibe above.. Using a Note3 on Sprint, until recently it worked without a hitch, now for the past 2-3 weeks, when I send SMS messsages I get people that state they get it up to 40x, when it only shows that it was delivered from my device once.
I am not sure if it is a Google Voice issue, Hangouts issue, Android, Sprint or just a combo of all of the above? If you are able to get a resolution, please let me know!
Thanks,
-Tim
Tim,
I was perusing around the Google help pages the other day and notices a new disclaimer I had not seen before. It was a short blurb on one of the Hangouts SMS help pages that said something along the lines of "If you're using Google Voice with your Sprint mobile number, do NOT integrate Google Voice with Hangouts. It will cause issues with SMS."
Not the most helpful thing in the world. But I ended up just disabling Voice from my Sprint service altogether. I hated to do it, since I've been using Voice on Sprint for several years now, but seeing as Voice is soon going the way of the Dodo, I figured it won't matter before too long anyway. I was only using Voice for voicemail anyway, so it wasn't a huge transition for me. Depending on how reliant you are on Voice, it might be a bigger problem for you.
At any rate, disconnecting Google Voice from my Sprint number solved the problem... no more spam texts!
Hi all,
I'm running a custom rom on a Huawei H1611 Ascent XT with only addition modification being Magisk V12 (I've tried posting this question in it's thread, but so far no luck https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/rom-ascend-xt-nexusxt-b160-t3597766 ). The rom replaced lots of stock apps with google apps so maybe something is going on there.
Basically, gmail, hangouts, and groupme all fail to notify me of a new email or message, especially when the phone is off. As a test, if someone sends me a hangout message, I won't receive it until I open the hangouts app.
I've gone through all the notification settings, the battery optimization settings (ensure gmail, play services, hangouts all set to no battery optimize), and can't find ANYTHING to cause this issue. Also done multiple wipes and reflashes.
I feel like one time I read about a blocked wakelock causing an issue similar to this but I can't recall it. Does anyone know what could cause an issue like this and how can I figure out what is going on? Driving my crazy...
thanks!
