Using Google Hangouts on One with Bloatware - One (M7) General

I guess some of you noticed that google just updated Google Talk to replace it with Hangouts. A nice WhatsApp Clone with some beautiful features. I guess cross platform chat (Phone <> PC) is the most interesting part.
If you are an owner of an One which has Google Talk preinstalled as bloatware there is no chance to update this via Google Play unless HTC delivers an update. Too bad we're not able to uninstall bloatware / preinstalled stuff on non rooted devices...
But if you open the Play Store via browser on your computer to instruct it to install Hangouts on your phone, it will overwrite the Google Talk and you're able to use the new Hangouts app

That's what I did myself I wondered why it wouldn't update

I really wish they integrated it with sms/mms app like Facebook Messaging can do... or just made it like iMessage. But I'm happy for the upgrade.
It might not be showing up for folks because it is probably still replicating across the Play servers.

UI Layour is quite nice, hope it gets popular, but i really wanted that it could send sms , like imessage , or sms atleast so i can use that app for all.
edit.

I tried installing it from the website but it never appears on my phone

Yep, but it is there don't worry. It launches when you start Google Talk

For me Talk was completely replaced after I started the remote Installation.

Strange. I'm on an att HTC one and it installed as a seperate app. I'm guessing it has to do with being on a non stock rom

I just got the phone today , it wouldnt let me install from Play store on the phone , it just gives me an option to open.
i went to play store on my pc and was able to install it from there on my phone and it replaced my talk app and it seems to work fine.

I opened a thread like this, Hangouts, with how to install and other stuff.
I saw this thread after.
Sorry

What I did was uninstall Google talk with titanium backup and then just install hangouts from the store later

Seems if ur rooted than you can get it or if gtalk wasn't a system app bloatware, like on sprint so I suppose I just have to wait

[Q] Google Hangouts / talk

Howdy,
I'm wondering if anyone has been able to get the Hangouts app to work on their N4. I'm running the latest nightly of CM 10.1. I went to install Hangouts from the Play store and it says that I have it installed. However my app is still called Talk and has the Talk interface. Has anyone had luck getting this updated?
Nevermind heh. I just used CM File Manager to move the talk.apk from /system/app to a backup location. Then I went to the Play store and tried again. This time it installed the new version.
I had the same issue. My solution was to go onto the Web store and install it from there to my phone. Seemed to do the trick.

Interesting, I tried that first but it didnt work for me.
I wish I could edit my title so it is more descriptive...
Just uninstall the original Talk app first (using Titanium or anything that's capable of remiving system app).
Seriously i rated this with 1 STAR.
It must say: "Replaces Talk AND REMOVE THE F$$$ING VOICE-CALL FEATURE FROM YOU Talk".
Its best to remove Talk and then install Hangouts.
Does anyone know how to get this working with the N4 if it's not rooted?

Nope - I have two stock, unmodified, new Nexus 4's... one upgraded no problem with the new Google Hangouts that properly replaced Google Talk... and the other, upgrades with Google Hangout but in the app list and everywhere else, still shows Google Talk but no Google Hangout. Under all apps, Google Talk is still shown. If you open it from there, the old Talk launches. If you search Google Play for Google Hangouts, it shows 'Installed' and if you open Google Hangouts from there, it launches the old Google Talk.
Very strange.... gonna try clearing some app data and what not to see if it resolves.

Please let us know if you figure anything out. I'm on stock as well and I'm starting to regret it because of updates like this. I bought this phone for updates but so far, it seems to be behind on that(4.2 OTA took a week). I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling google+ and that didn't work. I thought it might be tied to g+ since Google is trying to make it more involved with Android. I might root this weekend if I don't get it soon.

Google have addressed this as follows:
Google said:
NOTE: If you aren't yet able to install Hangouts on your phone or tablet, or the Play Store "Open" button takes you to the old Talk app, hang tight, we are rolling out Hangouts to everyone over the course of several days. Rest assured Hangouts will be available soon for all Android 2.3+ devices, tablets included!

I was having the same issue as others. It shows as installed on the phone (v 1.0.0.1) and via Play Store in a browser.
I was able to use a browser and install it to my wife's Nexus S though.
Here is the APK for v 1.0.0.678017 which I was able to side load and works fine on my N4.
Due to APK file size, I had to upload it in a ZIP archive.
Thanks mate, I had the same issue on my JB Xperia. Your APK worked.

I made the same mistake. I removed the update "3.6.1.44747389", but now the market pushes "3.6.0.44338848" instead. Not sure what the difference is, but I side loaded a backup of the newer version.
The apk SpookyTunes posted worked for me, I have it on my Galaxy tab 2.

Google Account Help PLEASE

I deleted my main google account from my phone because I no longer use it and I'm using a different gmail account. That account is on my phone and trying to connect everything in the Android Play Store to it, but none of my apps are connecting to it in the Play Store.
How do I connect all the Play Store apps to my other account? Thx!

Just got off the phone with them and they said, due to copyright reasons, they cannot transfer over the apps to the new account. So back on my phone is my old account, BUT I will have all syncing for it turned off.

Corrected when I called Google they said that there's no way to do this because of some copywriting issue. That doesn't make sense at all since they have verified I am the same owner of both gmail accounts. So I just put my old gmail back on the phone and turned off everything from syncing so that I can just use it for the Play Store.

I had a similar issue, and I'm not sure exactly how it got fixed. Here's what I did.
1. Factory reset
2. Setup phone with new gmail
3. Add old account
4. Go to my apps in the play store and select the old gmail.
5. Download all apps
6. Remove old account from phone.
I followed these steps on my phone and all apps paid and free work fine with my new gmail.

New Google Apps from Nexus 5 Dump

Droid Life is posting the new google apps that came from a nexus 5 which is, as you know, running android 4.4 . I can confirm the new google launcher works after installing google search and google play. Im pretty sure most others should work fine on the X. Post if working or if not!:good:
http://www.droid-life.com/2013/10/31/download-new-google-apps-from-the-nexus-5-dump-search-launcher-and-more/#more-123662
So I have installed all of the leaked apps. The only one that did not work is the clock. I've cleared the data on the app but it didn't make a difference. In in the Verizon Moto X. Only other problem is email app is missing the exchange option for me.
Anyone else try these? Any workaround for the clock?
Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk 4
You need to be rooted and uninstall the clock app and reinstall the leaked apk from what I've read. Android police had a write up on it.
Sent from my XT1060 using xda app-developers app
I'm rooted, followed the directions, still couldn't get it to work. No biggie...the clock isn't all that different.
Wish we had the dialer!
Can you install the new launcher without being rooted? Or is that required for all of these leaked apps? Looked like it just said side load them...
I had trouble sending mms with the new hangouts. I'm stock non rooted newest ota

Thanks Derek ross for the solution
Long press the home screen, select Settings. Select Voice. Select Language to change the default. Change to another language, I choose English – UK. Hit Home. Do a Google Search. Repeat the first three steps. Change back to English – US.
also update your language pack in the settings as well.
Is the new dialer included in any of these yet?

Needs GTalk back on rooted note 3

I bought a Note 3 yesterday which came with Hangouts.... I need Gtalk badly, bcoz i am connected to for 24 hrs and dont like Hangouts as it doesn't have Audio calling feature by default.

Hangouts replaced GTalk, you could search for an older .apk however it'd bug you to update it all the time, and probably isn't supported anymore.
To be honest, hangouts is pretty decent once you get used to it.
Actually i tried it a lot on my ONE, but i the more i tired, more i hate it ...
I got apk files for gtalk... But most of them are not working....
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Google probably killed all support for GTalk now, you;ll have to adapt to Hangouts, or alternatively find a new app with Voice support. WhatsApp can support voice, but not for calling :/ - There's always Skype! not sure if LiNE support Voice though(?)

Yeah no more support after 4.2, won't work unless you can hack the app etc but even then, the services revert to Hangouts since GTalk ceases to exist now. - You have to cut your losses I'm afraid man
