[Q] whatsapp messenger on galaxy player 5 - Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0

I've samsung galaxy s wifi 5 media payer. For some reason android market is not showing whatsapp messenger, how can i get that one.

I have the 4.0 and I can't get that app either. What you can do is go to 4shared.com and get and download it from there. just search for whatsapp apk.

You need a phone number for most free messaging services...impossible to get on a non mobile device...

Not true. I have the Galxy S Player 4.0 and I have a messaging app called Heywire(which is in the market), and they give you a free phone number for messaging only.

I said most...whatsapp and other popular apps require a phone number

And Google Voice works just fine. That's all I ever used even on my Optimus phone.

That's true. Whatsapp for android needs a real mobile number, so it doesn't work on the Player. However, Whatsapp works in iPod touch (¬¬).

Flash Meticulus' rom R5 and you are able to use whatsapp.
If whtsapp cant confirm your mobile number, just ask for a callback to your phone number

I really really want to have Whatsapp on my Samsung Galaxy player 4.0 because on my smartphones in the past I have always had it and I have family all over the world.
Long story short, I made an account on 4shared, downloaded Whatsapp, and now it tells me that I cannot use it since I don't have a phone number.
How on earth do you ask for a callback? Is it just impossible to have Whatsapp on a phoneless smartphone (it's like an iTouch).
I emailed Whatsapp as well but they're having technical problems with their technical support (not sure I understand that).
Any advice?

Basically you need to have a hacked framework and give your Galaxy Player a faked device ID (IMEI no.). Then Whatsapp will think that it is a phone and let you get through the installation. The usual SMS verification will still fail because Galaxy Player is not really a phone. However, after the SMS failure, Whatsapp will offer you the callback option.
There are a number of custom ROMs for 5.0 have the hack but I am not sure about 4.0.

Klin's Klassic has a version with the deviceid hack but it's not the latest version... It's included in R3 but removed in all later versions

Same problem with me in the start... Though I solved it by changing the country to UK in gmail account...
Find out what country ROM you have, and then download and activate Market-enabler of the same same Country your ROM is. You should be fine after that!

[Q] Make a call or send a sms via external modem?

Hi there, I planning to buy a wifi-only 7" tablet, but the tablet support some external 3G/EVDO modem to connect to the internet. So, is there -by any chances- a way to make a call or send a sms via external modem?
I've seen this possible on "ipod to iphone conversion" with custom dialer and sms app...
App
I do not know ur tablet model do i do not know connections ect...
But if you look around there are some apps that let you send SMS's on your tablet that then sends it through the phone via the app on both devices
Look at TexTab, is is in google play/market, i have not tested it so i cannot guarantee it works/safe
Also you need to check then android market works with your tablet, the app is around £2 in UK
Most tablets cannot call or text by them self, only with a android phone
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If I helped Please Take the time 2 press on the thanks button under my post
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
you have on play store app VIBER
u can send sms and make calls via WiFi for free
BUT only with your mates that have this app also installed

[Q] Galaxy Gear OS on Android phone?

Over the last couple of years I have enquired if its possible to link two Android phones via Bluetooth in order to use one as a `base station` so to speak and the other as a remote with the ability to make/receive calls, and have always been told NO. It has occurred to me that the Galaxy Gear is designed to do just this, so is it possible to extract the files that control telephony on the Gear and modify them to install onto a standard Android phone?
Try using Tablet Talk on the play store.

I have had Tablet Talk since it was first revealed on XDA, unfortunately its not the solution I am looking for as it requires a Bluetooth headset, I want my old Galaxy S2 to operate as a remote phone while my Galaxy S4 is connected to my external antenna (so therefore immobile).
Thanks anyway
