New Hangouts V2.1.1 - Nexus 5 Themes and Apps

New hangouts version 2.1.1 has been released. Doesn't seem to be a major update, mainly bug fixes I imagine. Here's the DL link.

I have noticed, on Sprint with this version I can now see the APN option in the SMS settings menu. Have never had that appear before, there are TONS of options for Sprint/SPCS now

Does anyone have this issue where you can't see the avatar of the person who texted you?

Got similar issue on stock. In my case Hangouts also didn't send pics. Killing and restarting app helped.

Still have the problem with peoples contact picture not showing up in the notification window

The only thing irking me is the fact that randomly when I go into sms conversations it'll show the hangouts bubble on the bottom left - greyed out with the word "sms" in it... Drives me nuts cause the text is also in a weird spot... If it at least centered it wouldn't annoy me as much.

You have to manually set the photo in contacts again to update for notifications.

OK so the app automatically syncs em but for hangout notification pictures to pop up in notification pull down you have to MANUALLY set the photo again in contacts app. I emphasize on manually

gmail not marking emails as read?

ok so this started this past week. I get an email and I read and delete it on my phone. later on, I go back in the gmail app and in the top left corner by "inbox" it says I have a new email, however I don't actually have a new email...when I check the gmail mobile site it shows the same email I read and deleted earlier, as unread and not deleted...
does anyone else experience this/know what I can do to fix it?

uninstall the app and reinstall it from the market.
well I can't uninstall it fully (at least not from the market) but I uninstalled updates and then updated so I'll see how that goes

Make sure your syncing is on. I had this problem, turned on background syncing and it was fixed. Hope that helps.
that was the first thing I checked haha. I have background data and auto sync both enabled though.

Happens to me all the time. I use gmail unread widget to view only unread mail to find the offending message

ADB / Root Explorer and delete Gmail.apk in /system/app/
I know that (sorry not trying to sound like an arrogant ass) so far uninstalling updates has worked though.

Don't sweat it....
Google People is quirky.
It collects contact data from accounts it recognizes, like Yahoo Mail and Skype.
If you try to change data in one of those "foreign" data section, it says This app can not change data. I guess that is reasonable.
You have to use the data "owner", like Skype, to modify it.

People app

Guys I've inadvertantly disabled the above app but for the life of me a can't find it to re-enable it any idea where I should be looking

Go to Settings>Apps> View all apps and find your app in the list. open it and enable it
Tried but its not in there
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
If it's disabled, it won't be in alphabetical order with your other apps. It will be at the very end of the list.
In the settings menu it is named Contacts.

You sure you froze the app and didn't accidentally deinstalled it?

It's called Contacts.

Re-Check, the name might be. Contacts or it may be on the end of the list
If it's not, then try re-installing your rom or you can manually push the apk to /system/app/
thanks for all the help guys ive sorted it now

How did you sort it out? I installed Overstock rom on my nexus 4 and after that I am unable to add contact. I cleared data from Settings->Apps-> Contact storage , still no luck.. Can you please explain what steps you took to sort it out.

[REQUEST] FB Messenger floating head style notifications for SMS

Specifically something that emulates the ability to 'open' a head and reply without entering the app.
I've had Floating Notifications for a little bit on my phone and it's just not what I'm looking for. I also used to use SMS Popup years ago which was quite good but I'd rather something less obtrusive that lets me chose when to see the popup rather than it just appearing and interrupting whatever I'm doing.
Is there anything out there like this? I'm sure I head of something when they first added it to FB Messenger but I can't seem to find anything.
EDIT: I've just installed SMS Extension but I'm not sure it's what I'm looking for.

How the heck did non contact full name appeared when I dial their phone number????

So I dialed a number that was not in my contact list and somehow the person who I called name populated in the dial screen which made it look like it was one of my contacts. First and last name appeared.
How the heck did that happen? I can't find anything here as to how it happen.
I'm bugged out!!

Facebook syncing? Twitter syncing? That would be my best guess.

Lol I'd bug in from that too. Wasn't Google doing some sort of Yellow Pages integration into KK? But I thought that was for local businesses, but not sure on that. Gonna search this out myself as well
