Smart Connect and the new Hangouts - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was using Smart Connect to read SMS messages aloud in certain situations. This doesn't seem to work while using Hangouts for SMS messaging. Has anyone gotten this to work or found a similar solution?

You ever find a solution?

Google voice not syncing all the time.

Hi everyone, so I have been using google voice for text messaging for the past 5-6months with no problems and lately once in awhile my texts don't get through. I know this for a fact because I would also login to my voice.google.com on my computer and see unread texts and then for some reason my phone will receive the message. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

[Q] Google Voice texts via native messaging. Does anyone know how to do it?

Does anyone know how to make the native messaging app send and receive SMS/MMS via Google Voice instead of using GV app?
I'm wondering if it's as simple as changing the messaging centre number to whatever it might be for GV. If so, what's the Google Voice message centre number?
*bump* Anyone? No idea? Help?
This is the only reason I haven't ported over to google voice, I don't like that app for texting at all. Even on ics its not great.
As far as I know you cannot but could be wrong, its been a bit since I researched that.

Exactly! I find the GV app to be no less than very clunky when used for SMS, hence my desire to use the native SMS for GV texts instead. That would be great!

Moto voice assist and google hangouts

I think I already know the answer to this question but can't find it anywhere. Yes I know Moto voice assist will work with Google hangouts sending sms messages. What I want to know is if it can reply using hangouts and not through an sms. I almost exclusively use hangouts and only sms 1 person I know. Can the touchless controls reply directly using hangouts?
Yes, I have replied to multiple different texts sent through hangouts.
No it can't reply to hangouts messages, only SMS.
Thanks nimper. Thats what I thought

I'm getting SMS notifications on my smartwatch, but the text is missing on my phone.

I know people have trouble with MMS and this phone, but I just noticed that I'm completely missing a few SMS that I should have received. The only reason I know these texts exist is that somehow I got a notification on my Pebble smartwatch, but when I go to check it on my phone I have no notification and all my texting apps show no messages. This is a very strange problem, and I'm wondering if anyone else have ever seen an issue like this? It seems like I'm receiving the texts and they're getting deleted?
I'm on AT&T
Try switching to Textra,it seems to give most people here the best messaging experience vs stock or other 3rd party apps.

Messages For Web Silencing Notifications

Hey gang, wondering if anyone else has this issue. When I'm using Messages For Web (Google Messages SMS) it silences notifications on my phone. This is especially annoying if I leave Messages for Web up on my computer and leave the office, in which I get zero notifications.
Any idea how to fix this?
I just tested it and while it's running on my Windows PC I still get a notification on my phone.
Fixed this...you have to go to App settings and enable notifications. There's a separate section for 'notifications while using messages for web'
