Talk v24.0.2 - UnifiedPush

Hello NextCloud community.

I managed to setup NextCloud on my home server to use Talk Android mobile app from F-Droid but do not have Google Play services on my Android phone for Push notifications. Instead I would like to use the distributor app Sunup or even better NextPush. I already successfully use NextPush with ElementX mobile app from F-Droid on the same Android phone.

I am successfully logged to my server from Talk mobile app and can text messages with other users but do not receive Push notifications when messages are received.

I was trying to follow this manual to setup UnifiedPush in Talk according to this manual talk-android/docs/unifiedPush.md at master · nextcloud/talk-android · GitHub but I cannot find the place where I can specify either Sunup or NextPush in Talk v24.0.2 app settings.

Below are my system details and thank you for your help in advance.

Regards,

Nick

I have the same issue. My phone runs on GrapheneOS without Google Play services. I have a nextcloud-aio server and I installed UnifiedPush in it. NextPush on the phone seems to connect but Talk can’t see NextPush. I have the same transcript from the app which also has a field
UnifiedPush services
1 service available

It’s strange that Apps specifically made for Nextcloud can’t work seemlessly.

Hello everyone,

I am not sure if it is related to the minor software version update on server side from 34.0.2 to 34.0.3 or additional PushNotification related package installed but my NextCloud Talk app does work with NextPush and here are the details:

Hey @indygo, also on GrapheneOS here but running GitHub - nextcloud/notify_push: Update notifications for nextcloud clients · GitHub on my Nextcloud snap Server together with F-Droid Nextcloud Services and it works just fine. No G-(dontbeevilbutis) Play services required.

Similar issue:
Talk Android (F-Droid) 24.0.4
Both Android NextPush and sunup (As NextPush alone also made no difference). installed,
Graphene OS telephone,

Under notifications:

Google Play services are not available, notifications are not supported.

Quite not what was expected. (Or announced in a news item about talk-android/docs/…).

AFAICT is has never worked.

The notify_push websocket button is greyed out. (In Nextcloud Services).

confirmed :+1:

After reinstalling Nextcloud services (remove, install) web socket button did enable after a while…

Now to solve an issue about multiple nextcloud profiles. One for Office use and a private cloud as well).
Still Talk still mentions Google play services are not available.

Same issue. I wanted to follow the brand-new blog post at How to set up UnifiedPush on Android for Nextcloud Talk - Nextcloud but I’m also stuck with notifications not being supported in the talk settings.

EDIT: and just a few minutes after I posted this, I went back to the talk settings one more time, and suddenly that checkbox to enable UnifiedPush was there. No idea why or what changed that.

wow a few hours later there is a slide in the talk settings.
Why does it take a 4 hour wait before a setting appears? (even halting talk and restarting earlier didn’t help).

Ok now the multi account wait is left.
