I could not find a way to contact the Viber Team. If you dont mind pointing me in the right direction, I would appreciate it.
However, I do have some issues with Viber.
I installed it on my Galaxy Player 3.6. I used the Phone Number from my "Dumb" phone. Not ideal, but seems to work for getting set up. Now, I am able to use the text functions of fiber just fine. However, the Voice Functions are a bit messed up.
When I attempt to use voice, Viber goes into Speaker Phone mode, and it will not allow me to take it out. And now I cant remember, but either I cant hear the other party, or they cant hear me (I think this)...
I have looked through the settings on the Player, and cant find anything that might affect this. I know the Mic works, as I use it sometimes for voice searches.
I understand that Viber may not be completely compatible with my device, but if you have any suggestions...

I had the same speakerphone issue when first using csipsimple, but i found a fix. Unless you can find an option in viber to change this like i did in csipsimple, then you'll need the viber team to fix it.

Hi,
i need an app that blocks outgoing sms and phone calls while im drinking and is not easy to disable. (password would be ok cause my mate writes it down and i never see it, everything that would protect me from myself while drinking)
cm7 has this feature built in (phone googles) but its so easy do deactivate. i tried many apps from the store but none of them works correctly.

Anyone got Skype working on rooted Nook Tablet?
I think this is the major differentiation over the KF due to presence of microphone and one of the guys who owns a rooted table should try this out, so that others can decide

Try theos0o modified Skype apk
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=688562&d=1313338192
I use his Skype apk with a Motorola H700 bluetooth headset.
Works for me
It seems to be working fine for me.
Have only done one voice call tho. Chat is fine. Not sure which apk - i just google for one and installed it. I dont have the full market installed yet - been ableto find apk's for apps I use.

Does Skype recognize an internal microphone?
I've heard there is a problem:
"I had no problem installing the Skype app or logging into my account. But the app wouldn’t recognize the NOOK Tablet’s Microphone, which means it’s impossible to make voice calls. You can only use Skype as an instant messenger app on the NOOK Tablet."

I've got the latest Skype running but it has issues. It can send IM's without issue but voice phonecalls are buggy. When making an outgoing call to someone on a contact list the call is established but then drops immediately, and then an incoming call from the person you rang suddenly appears even though they didn't call you. For a while I had it answer a call and apparently seem to maintain it but on the Nook I couldn't hear the remote party - Skype seemed to be confused with the nofification volume and the media volume. When the notification volume was all the way down it muted the incoming sound completely. When the notification volume was up, that's when I couldn't get it to maintain a call. Very weird. Not really usable.
That was my experience anyway, would be interested in seeing what other people find with various versions.
Can you check which version of skype you are using so I can try it. The latest doesn't seem to recognize the microphone.

OK, so I thought I'd try this again and its a no go?! I had tested it initially with my wife's computer and she answered the call etc. Now it also drops calls as soon as picked up. My version is a "raider" version for this forum somewhere and not the lastest but a link for ppl having issues. Non the less, it's not working now
Which apk?
The android market says it is incompatible. I got an apk on the net, but it insisted on a mobile phone number.
It looks good, signs in and calls out but drops the call after about two rings. Does Skype need gps? I was thinking that if we could get a gps spoof running that might do it.
I was calling a landline which I had control of and it even rang so I'm close. I can tether to the gps on my phone but that defeats the purpose. I suppose I could do that to see if it's what skype wants.

Wasn't sure I had it still - I have "com.skype.raider2-1.2.apk" in my downloads.
I've reinstalled it and it is acting the same as what i had installed.
Sorry I didn't keep more detail, but because it seemed to work, I didn't think much of it. I imagine now that I've done lots of other downloads, mods etc, something must of messed it up.
The most major one since then would have be the multi keyboard stuff. Either that or it was just a fluke that it worked. My wife is my participating witness tho

OK, a little more digging reveals two files. The raider2 one mentioned above and one named "Skype_2.0.0.47_v06.apk".
I tried to attach them but they are both over 9megs and the limit is 8M.
Having a gps signal didn't help. My theory was that Skype needed a location so that it billed properly.
Currently calls drop after two rings (which make it to the line being called) and advanced settings cause a force close.
It's too bad. being able to make the occasional call would really make this an even better vacation device for out of your home country.
---------- Post added at 09:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:23 AM ----------
A little bit of progress. The apk from this post rings the other number until connection then drops. Advanced settings still FC.

I, also, tested Skype when I first installed it and it worked fine... ok, quality wasn't all that great, but it worked. Now it hangs up when the other end answers and will not recognize the mike. Very frustrating. I need to make this work.

If you are asking for the Skype version, it's 2.6.501.97. If you need the apk file number.... uh, I'm still pretty new to android and even tho I can build and hack a pc, I'm having trouble naving my NT. I'm still looking for the file and I'll post it when I stumble over it.
Okay, I give up. How do I sent a chat message to someone? I can't find anywhere in Skype that has that option. Whenever I click on a contact, I only have the option to call them.
Anyone have any updates on this?
I was wondering if they figured something out on the CM7 beta testing, but haven't found info related to skype/google calls.

I am looking to turn my eris into a pure mp3 player for my daughter. she uses it now for that reason, but it doesn't need the dialer, phone book or anything else like that on it. to me its just wasted space. i am open to suggestions. is there a rom out there that i can use that will do this? i have searched and found nothing.
I'm not 100% sure you can remove phone and dialer stuff without getting force closes on that process. I may be wrong but I'm pretty sure those can't be removed.

this might be what you're looking for...?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1216571
you don't need to remove the dialer, contacts, phone .apk's, but with most launchers giving the option to hide certain programs, you could hide them and those apps would only be accessible when going into Titanium Backup or Manage Apps within the settings. at least that's what i did, just in case i need to activate the old eris in an emergency and need the phone functionality, since all phones can make 911 emergency calls even after deactivation.
EDIT: just happened to be browsing that thread, and saw a few posts from you, so maybe this is old news to you! lol, anyway, hope this helps if not, cheers!
Ya know removing the dialer and stuff wouldn't help you free space anyway because that is stored on the system and your mp3s are on the SD card.

That works perfectly, thank you very much. and you guys are all correct on the removal of the phone book and dialer. and everything is already on the sd card, i was just trying to clean / speed things up a bit. i appreciate the response from everyone.
I've been wanting the same thing. But I've decided to make it a home phone that is relatively always plugged in and use sipdroid to set it for inbound and outbound calls. I occasionally use it as an example mp3 player. I may try breaking the ROM apart, but honestly just use a startup disabling app like systemtuner productos or autostarts.. That can literally disable everything from turning on at boot. And other trigger points. Freezing sometimes breaks the ROM depending on what it is.
Sent from my android touchpad.
I've been asking if workshed wants to make one last ROM for the Eris which encorporates that script into it as well as removing every system app not necessary to making it a wifi enabled music player, but he seems to be busy with his other ROM development. I think I'll be making a thread about it, that way if a dev is interested in making it, they can take it from there. Sort of a dev-shopping thread. I've been meaning to for a little while.

I have question about security. I have to know what options are there to find out sms conversation. I use Handcent sms in which I use privacy box with one person to determine that noone else except me would know what we are texting about. But one thing happened. Third person know what exactly we are texting about, even if I constantly deleted sms everyday. I can't imagine the way how he find out this.
I study software development so about security I know something. I know that handcent saves database of sms even if they are deleted or not. I used sqlite to find out what is exactly in the db and find out, that this is not right way how he find out. I also find out that in handcent autobackup option was checked, but noticed that when you delete sms, backup file changed and there were only sms i intented to be there. I also tried antivirus programs to find out if there is some kind of malware or trojan, nothing found.
So my question is: what options of finding out sms conversation are there? Even if third person can access mentioned mobile phone or not?
I will appreciate any good advice

Was it a known person? Or a random person? If he was a friend/person you know, then he either heard through the grape vine or got your phone or the person you were textings phone. I dont think there is a way to "hack" your phone from a computer and view the texts you sent. Unless he got them from your carrier.

Yes it is but would need to go through tones of red tape and have to be a Cop of some kind.
Most likely it was who ever you were texting. There are also other ways that it could happen. Apps that forward all texts to another number used to be a big one back in windows mobile days. Not sure if there is an app like that for android

It's probably the problem that this person has a friend which works for vodafone which this phone uses. Forwarding all texts is not possible i think, because this person would catch up on this earlier..

There used to be an app that could be installed that did all this with the user even knowing about it. Once installed it was hidden away and it never showed that the messages would be forwarded. It was a proof of concept app that someone made for learning. If they had someone working for the company it would have to be a higher up to have access to the cached data bases the company keeps which are encrypted.
I have a feeling the OP was ratted out by the one they were texting.

ive use this site before for guides and such but i be leave this is the first time i have posted. So if ive placed this in the wrong place or am going about it the wrong way i apologize and i can change or move to another thread. I just bought me and me wife these new phones they were cheap and had good specs. It is the Blu Studio C 5.5 (android Version 5.0). Haven't really had any issues with the phones yet. Until now my wife does a lot of driving and likes her blue tooth headset so she can be safe and hands free. and ive never seen an issue like this on any phone. On every phone you push the head set button and it activates the voice commend on the the phone to call, search, statues, whatever. This phone will not do that. Double click will redial, and a single click will answer or hang up a call, but that's it. I can not get the voice command or google voice search to activate via the headset and have tried 3 different headsets with same resulted. Ive tried every app in the store and such, trying to do different things.Tthought maybe if i could change the voice commend to activate on a double click or something like that but none of the apps in the store do anything the commands i quoted earlier are the only things i can get the head set to do. Some thoughts or help would be much appreciated. i use to be an IT Tech and have experience with rooting/hackings several deceives/pc/consoles in my past but generally these days things do most of what i want them to, so i just leave them default. I Haven't looked into rooting the device yet its done everything ive needed up until now . If i need to root the device to get the headset to function corrects that's fine i can do that first and then come back to this. i was just hoping to get some feed back to see what everybody thoughts was.I have called google and Blu and they say to call the other person imagine that lol.
