No Audio in Google Hangouts? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I was playing around with the new Google Hangouts app and decided to use the video feature. Apparently, everyone can hear me but there is no sound on my end (I can't hear anything)... I tried this with different people using both WiFi and 4g and checked volumes, but no luck :/. Anyone else having the same issue? I'm running Nexus 4 stock rom rooted.

I to an having the exact issue on my bassis galaxy s3. Works perfect on the nexus 10. I'm running paranoid android on both devices, latest versions available. Also same issue on a galaxy player 5 stock rooted. I've googled everything I can think of and can't find any rhyme or reason.
I'm aware this isa nexus 4 forum, but I stumbled across it in another search attempt. Definitely not related to any one device.

Well, apparently Google fixed something.
The galaxy player that hadn't worked with outgoing audio is now working. Same goes for my galaxy s3 on paranoid android.
Thanks Google for listening!

ok. i've bought a new camera and replaced it and still same problem. So it's definitely NOT a hardware problem. going to try to go back to stock rom to see if that fixes it.
Went back to Stock, and still same issue. front camera just not working. This sucks..gonna try returning it to see if warranty still available

it's a known issue with Samsung devices
go to google support site and search it (i'm a new user so i can't post links)
open hangouts and go to the last issue
Hangouts crash on some Samsung devices
click on report, as many reports possible maybe google will take time to address this issue.

Anybody got nexus 7 to work with jawbone up?

I am interested in buying a jawbone up but from what i can read online no one has successfully synced jawbone up with nexus 7..wondering if experts here have had better luck ? Nexus 7 is not on their supported devices at the moment but you can install the app.

Well to answer both your question, I have to say it does work with the nexus 7. the app is not currently in the app store on google play, you have to download the app separately. a quick google and you shall find what you are looking for. its slow to upload, but works. goggle jawbone up apk for samsung note 2, this is the version I am using and I have to say it works.
Nexus 7 is missing line in support
Do you also get the arm wrist to sync with your nexus 7?
I read that the up needs line in support on the audio jack and neither the old or new nexus 7 provide that.
Of course you can install the app but without syncing there is not much sense in it.
Would be glad to hear that i'm wrong...

It works just fine on my Nexus 7 2013, I can sync it with no problems, so far. I am running stock KitKat (4.4.2) ROM, if it matters.

Jawbone UP v2 (audio jack one) + Nexus 7 fhd 2013 works great together
get the app from here apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader
you can get every app directly from the store. just put in the link or the app name (com.jawbone.up) and get it.
the first time i plugged the wristband didn't work at all.. sync error
i hard reset the wrist the first time (9 click + 1 long 30sec click) then i hack with volume and after some plugs and unplugs it worked.
if volume is max or min it doesn't sync.
i hope it helped.

They're a perfect match in my opinion. Just came from the old N7. Vast improvement over that for one. Only missed a few things, but root it add xposed mod, gravity box and touch control and sorted. One very happy camper ?

I didnt notice any problems,. there was a significant improvement in the performance. the response time seem faster
No problem here. The system is running without issue with ART, as well.

I bought the Nexus 7 LTE to take the place of my T-mobile hotspot. This update breaks the 2 reasons I use the hotspot for, wireless connectivity on the go when I need it for my laptop and native sms messaging. Both of these features are included in the service I pay T-mobile for on this account. Not only did Google disable these 2 features without notice in KitKat, but they don't acknowledge that they have or give a reason or resolution for the issue anywhere that I can find. I can't even find a way to contact Google directly to ask them a question about the issue with any guarantee that they will even read my questions, let alone answer them. Until this is resolved, I'm stuck on 4.3.1.

So you're saying that the 4.4/KRT16S update removed the option to tether with a T-Mobile SIM? Can anyone else confirm that? If that's true, that totally sucks. For people on AT&T, their tethering has been disabled from the start. I know for a fact that tethering still works with Verizon, though, even after the KitKat update. I'd love to know how carriers get their demands integrated into a carrier-free, SIM unlocked device like the Nexus 7, especially when no Nexus phone has ever disabled tethering. The Google Play Edition phones don't disable tethering either. This "selective disabling of tethering based on carrier" seems to be unique to tablets.
As for native SMS on a tablet, though, that's a feature very few people will miss because so few people would ever even think to do it in the first place. Tablets are designed by default to be data consumption devices, not giant phones. You probably won't find much sympathy on that one.

I'm tying to understand why it should be different on theN7 from the N5 running Kitkat. I use my N5 on T-Mobile and the tethering works fine. I can't say I love Hangouts as the native SMS client but it does work for sms/mms. It should work on the N7. Hopefully someone might chip in who uses t mobile with their N7. You might want a thread title that is clearer what your issues are. The current title is unclear.

I don't need anyone's sympathy. As a matter of fact, there is already someone who has claimed a fix for the SMS problem in the LTE android development forum for the Nexus 7 (2013). So obviously there is sympathy. Just because you don't use a feature, don't make the assumption that others don't use it and find it useful.

That's exactly why I reverted to CM10.2 a while back.
TBH I have yet to see one real benefit of KitKat, and the ASOP install issues with KK was a total deal breaker for me.
XPrivacy having issues with KK didn't help either.
Went back to 10.2 and now I'm extremely happy again!...

Having N 7 2013 root and TWRP recovery notification update in step 4.4 and came anyway. Now the question is: Can you do the same upgrade to the next version even though you have the terminal with root permissions? Thanks

Headset issue. Anyone know if theres a fix

I have the Sprint version stock LG g2 and can not find an answer to headphone button issue. Not matter what set I use I can not get it to skip or pause track. One click goes to dailer two clicks calls last person. Hold the button goes to voice command. I have tried every app I could find. Nothing works. Best I can get is a set from galaxy s3 and s4 will control volume but button does same thing. I keep reading online that s4 set works perfect. Any ideas I really don't want to root if possible

Same problem here. I rooted yesterday, but still don't know how to resolve the issue.
Just seams with as many people that use there phones for music, Pandora, etc that LG would have fix for this. I love the phone. I think it's the best one I have had in a long time but music lovers have to hate this issue and hope a fix is found.

I too can't believe that this is not a widely known issue. I have looked through all of the stock settings and have not found any control for this. I have also looked through several Xposed modules and found nothing.

Unable to find camera awesome on Google play.

I have purchased camera awesome from Google play few months ago but now I noticed that I am no longer able to even find it. I am on purity rom 4.4.1. Problem is, my friend is on the same rom but he can find it with no problem on Google play. Only difference is he's not purchased it. Anything I might have missed? I tried emailing the Dev but there's no reply.

It's probably a region issue. Follow this link on your phone https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smugmug.android.cameraawesome&hl=en It will probably tell you that it isn't compatible with your nexus 4 for some reason. I normally find that this happens when I've recently updated my ROM to the latest version and the dev hasn't had a chance to catch up yet, but if your friend is on the same ROM I'm not sure why it would happen.

Did you change your phone dpi? It normally makes some apps incompatible with your phone which means even if you search they don't show up. Go back to stock dpi reboot. May be dirty flash the rom and you might find your app
I LOVE MY SLUTTY N4
Alright Changed back my dpi and it worked. Thanks guys!
