[Q] Hangouts 2.3.7 [latest version] on Gingerbread 2.3.6?

[russell1997]

Hi,
I was troubleshooting my phone and un-installed hangouts back to google talk, i was able to find a hangouts apk to install again because the current version on play is incompatible with Android 2.3.6.

Has anyone been able to find a working apk of Hangouts 2.3.7xxx that works on Gingerbread Android 2.3.6?

I tried it on my inspire 4G running stock 2.3.5 - first, play store did not even show hangouts dialer. second, sideload successful but the app kept closing saying that device is not compatible or kept freezing/crashing. I upgraded the ROM to AOCP (4.2.2) and that allowed me to download both hangouts and hangouts dialer, and i could make phone calls (half of the time the phone freezes and app crashes within a minute or so) and i could not receive any calls. Surprisingly, all other VoIP apps work like a charm!
