Open SMS not working with nexus 5

So I just downloaded Join and tried to load the browser SMS client but it doesn't ever want to load for me on my Nexus 5.

Has anyone else got it working on theirs?

 

Hi, I have the same problem with my LG G3 with 4.4.2. When I open chrome extension and click on SMS a little window pop-up with a coloured circle inside; the circle is just rotating changing the colours forever. Nothing else appears. Thanks

 

same problem as listed in my separate thread except with my HTC One M8

 

Doesn't work with my Nexus 5 either. I just get a spinning 'wait' wheel. Copy and paste doesn't work either.

 

Hi,

Nope, nothing happens on my phone. It keeps sleeping... even if I switch the screen on.
This is the error from the chrome console:

"Uncaught NotSupportedError: Failed to execute 'registerElement' on 'Document': Registration failed for type 'sms-messenger'. A type with that name is already registered.
content.js:4 contextmenu=[object HTMLDivElement]"

Please let me know if I can help you in anyway.

Another question: my tablet is 4g (note 12.2 pro) with a SIM inside and it is able to send texts: why I cannot see the text option in the chrome extension?

Thank you

 

Hi,
perfect now it is working. Sometimes it cannot update the status after the sending (if the text was sent or not) but the text is always sent. I think you updated the chrome extension as well? Cause now I cannot see one of my devices (I have in order: smartphone, chrome, chrome and tablet). The tablet is out of the window (at the bottom and the scroll doesn't let me to reach the options; I can just read the name of the device).

Thank you

 

Hi,
just "joined" join and very excited about the development. Copy/Paste works perfectly, but I'm not receiving notifications on my pc with the chrome extension and sms isn't working at all. When I select sms a window opens and then shows "retry" in the top left hand corner. Several errors (13 in all) in the chrome console. Can you help?

Nexus 5 (Android 6.1.)

 

Hi joaomgcd,
I managed to get the sms window working (I had an adblocker still active - sorry!). The pushes (e.g. webpages) work to and from pc/android, and I am receiving a notification for these as well as the link automatically opening on both pc/android.

I'm still not receiving notifications when an sms has been sent. I have to open the sms window to see if the message which I sent myself from another phone had arrived.

 

my says:

drivefilechecker.js:72 Drive file didn't update yet: sms=:=b5
drivefilechecker.js:23 Giving up on file: sms=:=

 

I'm running into something similar with a Nexus 6P -- I noticed at first numerous directories on my Google account with different names for the same device (with and without the manufacturer) and multiple 'SMS Files' and 'SMS files' (differences in case) directories. I've cleaned everything out and started from scratch a couple of times but keep ending at the same repeating message in the console:

File not found yet: contacts=:=f3f8a2c815a8....

The only thing that has changed before and after starting from scratch is the file name. I can verify all tests are successful and can manually find the file within Google Drive.

 

Thanks, I removed and discarded the entire directory from the trash, waited 3 hours and gave it another try. Same results. It looks for the contact file name which does appear in the SMS files directory. Are there other debug steps I can take?

 

Yes, all tests pass both on the phone and the browser - when I look at the console of the inspect, the filename it is searching for matches the filename within the "SMS Files" directory but drivefilechecker.js fails and ultimately falls back to the checks every 60 seconds. Within the browser, I have multiple Google accounts and the default is different than the one Join is using. This should not matter, right? I didn't know if there was additional debugging I could do.
