I have set up HangOuts to merge both my SMS and GoogleVoice. If I receive a voice mail from a contact, it gets threaded into my SMS conversation with that person. How do I delete the voice mail and not the entire conversation thread?
Thanks

This is relatively easy. It cannot be done through the hangouts app. You must do it on the google voice website OR google voice app. Delete it in google voice and it disappears in hangouts. Also, if you delete the hangout, ALL voicemail and SMS will be gone (with no trash can to recover them from). So, use GV to delete voicemails and use gmail "chats" to selectively delete SMS.

I am not sure how this happened but it is really great and I would love to recreate it in the future.
I have an Galaxy Tab 7.7 Running the stock ROM from Hong Kong.
I installed Google Voice from the market and have it syncing with my work number. It is able to send and receive texts from my work number. However somehow it has been able to receive texts from my personal GV account as well. Replying to these texts will reply from my work number.
Edit:
Seems as though an app called Talkatone is the culprit. I have my personal GV account tied to this app. Once I select the "Check SMS on this account" option it will somehow forward messages to my Work GV account even when Talkatone is off. It only forwards messages as they happen it does not seem to cache or sync them so if my phone is off and I get a personal SMS it will not show when I turn it back on.
I wonder if there is a more elegant way of doing this? I would love to permanently be able to forward all my personal SMS messages to my work number if this is possible.
Hi,
I would like to be able to use voice actions to call contacts, send text messages etc., but I don't use Google contacts but another way to sync my contacts to the phone.
Is the any way I can still get these contacts to be recognized by voice actions or is the another work around to get this functionality?
Any way to make hangouts the default app to send SMS for google now? It seems it will only use the default messaging app even though I have hangouts selected as my SMS app.
I have been a google voice user since the grand central days. We used to be able to send an text from google now and it would use google voice to send the text. Seems now that we can not send a text with our google voice number via google now. Kind of makes my moto360 a bit sad.
I have reset my default apps, I don't get a popup to use hangouts instead of messaging. Any help would be appreciated. All I want to do is use my google voice number to send texts from google now. I'm on a MotoX, but my Nexus 5 does the same thing.
I disabled a bunch of services months ago, but forgot to test hangouts because I don't use gv messaging a lot. I just found I can no longer receive message in hangouts (SMS is OK). Are there services needed by hangouts to receive gv messages? My phone is samsung s5 with lollipop.
I'm on Project Fi and want to move from Hangouts to Messages but want to keep my SMS history. How can I do that?
I already tried an app called something like SMS Backup + that synced it with GMail but the restore option didn't restore any SMS on to Messages.
Thanks.
