Dear friends,
I have Asus Memo Pad HD7 Android 4.2.2, with Viber on it. I have a problem of not being able to update contacts on it
I noticed the following:
1- Viber usually allows to pull and release contacts to update, but i can't on this device.
2- I have a Galaxy note 10.1 (N8000) which in the "Accounts" section of android settings has (a Viber Account), but can't find it on Memo Pad.
I hope there's a way to figure out what to do, is it an android problem that need a new ROM? or a Viber Problem? Does rooting help?

Dear sir,
no wonder the article wasn't helpful. I'm talking about a whole mechanism absent in this device (but surely exists for samsung at least). Which is viber syncing.
Again: on this device, the ability of pull and release is totally absent. In addition, I can add a google account, Facebook account, even a dropbox account, but I can't add a viber account... so syncing is totally absent ON MEMO PAD HD7
Your article explains how to use this feature right, but the problem is that you don't support it on this device
All devices running Android have the same features. There aren't certain features that are present on Samsung devices that won't be present on you Acer Memo Pad.
Please make sure that you have the latest version of Viber (version 4.3.3) on your tablet. The pull and release feature is available on that version.
Should you continue experiencing issues, please contact our support team here: http://bit.ly/1aOwGy2

I am re-posting this from another user on a different forum. He/She wrote exactly what I wanted to say so why change it?
The major shortfall of Android ICS is the inability to handle standard Internet Calendar Sharing (ICS) meeting requests (calendar invitations) sent via email.
Every other platform in the world seems able to handle a meeting invitation sent from a calendar application, whether that is from Microsoft Outlook (worldwide standard in the business world), an iCal file from an Apple device. The web-based version of gmail correctly handles calendar invites and prompts one to respond with a "Yes/No/Maybe" reply.
The native Android gmail app shows either just a blank email or sometimes the text details of a meeting invite. There is no ability to respond to the meeting request. Instead, Android places the item on the Calendar and expects the user to respond to it there. The problem with this approach is the one needs to know where to look on the calendar.
A Google search shows that this has been a known issue for years, yet Google does nothing about it.
Short of ditching the native gmail app for a functional third-party app, how can one enable gmail to handle meeting requests the way every other email application does?

What I want to know is how a black and white screen BlackBerry from the stone ages can read and reply to meeting requests yet my dual-core, multitasking juggernaut of a phone can't preform this simple function. How on earth can Android/Google turn off business users like this??? I am aware that some 3rd party apps on Android do provide this function but they all require you to connect to an exchange server! W T F Google??????

What email app?
dunno what's wrong with my ics but its working fine here, im getting invitation popups and i can respond yes/no/maybe. it seems though that the mail itself is rawtext if you open it, but the invitation will be triggered when the time is proper.

Not sure what caused your issues. I've had invites and responded from the following without problems:
1. Lotus Domino
2. MS Exchange
My systems:
1. Plain Gmail and Gmail calendar (for personal stuffs).
2. Google Apps Gmail and Google Apps Calendar (for business stuffs).
Hope that helps.
I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. Are you saying that in the Android phone's gmail app you get meeting request emails and have the YES/NO/MAYBE buttons available? If YES are you using and ms exchange server? If NO, did the person send the request from a gmail email address?
Invitation Plugin
Check if Invitation Plugin application can solve your issue. It opens ics invites in default calendar where you can accept/decline event.
You can get this app on Google Play:
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cleansoft.invitationplugin
For it to work you need to enable 'Automatically add invitations to my calendar' setting in Google Calendar

It requires Android 4.0+ (Ice Cream Sandwich)
Hope that helps.

Working for me
Hi -
Android Device info:
Android 4.0.4
Samsung Galaxy tab 2 10.1
I am trying to image and deploy 500+ Samsung Galaxy tab 2 10.1 devices. The requirement is, that the 500+ tablets configured and provisioned with the relevant applications for the end-users before delivery...December 31st 2012 - :crying:
I have been manually creating gmail accounts for each device via WiFi since I am not sure of a better way. Now I am starting to notice that some tablets have an error message "Your account has been disabled." Would Google disable these new gmail accounts because they are coming from the same IP address? I am so worried because I can not afford to lose any of the gmail accounts since they are specific to each end user.
P.S.
I am installing a mdm - SOTI
I found a thread discussing Android mass deployment using an "update.zip" if anyone could help me do this I would be willing to pay. I don't see anyway I am going to make this deadline doing each one manually. I was just laid off from this company, but brought back on as a contractor to assist with this last minute project. I would hate to lose this opportunity since its the only one I have.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
Should I provide additional info?

Hey did you ever get a solution to this?
Over the last month or so I've jumped into the "Rooted" world and the benefits of customizing my phone with different ROMs!!! - So i'm an official NOOB
I've installed MeanBean on both my EVO 3D and my EVO LTE. I use my LTE as my daily and it worked great with the exception of text-to-type, which acted like it did when it was first introduced (useless). In an effort to find a good ROM with that working and a higher aesthetic appeal, I flashed BeanStalk. I really like it! One big frustration is the accounts and contacts. It doesn't allow me to store a contact on the phone only. It just allows creating one in my Google account. More importantly, I cannot initiate an account for Windows Live. It says, "This account type is no longer valid. Please go to Settings>Account to add a new Microsoft account." Of course that is where I am when I'm trying to add it so there seems to nothing I can do to correct it.
As a Noob, I'm desperately in need of your higher knowledge. Please help if you're able.
Thanks!
Answer plus Question.
Okay, it took me sleeping on it to realize the "duh." So the only contact manager that is installed in BeanStalk is the pure Google Contacts. Of course this will not allow me to store local (phone only), contacts; nor will it allow me to sync with MS or FB or any other contact repository without adding them to Google.
QUESTION: Do you know of a contact app that is similar to the HTC Sense People app (that would be ideal), that will do the above?
Thanks.

In Google play if we click on contact developer as we all know it takes us to gmail and we see the subject ( the name of the app) but recently I noticed if I click contact it takes us to gmail with empty subject and I need to write the name of the app in the gmail subject! How to fix this?*
Anyone have this issue or only from my side?
Say phone model if you have it.
I'm asking in general and for Galaxy Note 9 also
Thanks!

HI all, I have been a follower of this amazing forum for quite some time now. A big thank you to the forum owners, mods and all concerned parties for the effort, information and forum.
I need help this time around. I have a XIAOMI MI 10T. WITH GLOBAL MIUI 12 ROM, running Miui 12.0.5.0., android 10.
Can some one please help me, to install either xiaomi's MI apps or a working third party or google alternative apps to Google contacts, Google Dialer, and Google Messages(SMS) Apps? WITH OUT ROOTING MY DEVICE?
It would be really awesome to have them back.
Problems I face with factory installed google apps are,
1.my contacts are not allowed to get saved on my device.
2.google dialer's call recorder self defeats the purpose it exists for. No video calling Built in.
3.google's message (sms) app is way too slow in searching through the contacts when I need to send a message and IT JUST DOESNT have an option to share a Contact in TEXT format, only mms is allowed for some reason.
4. Post DEC 2020 security update, non of the alternative apps from the google's play store work without bugs, or without solving the above problems.
HELP.
I even tried contacting google apps developer team, as per their developer contact email Id left in the play store (Which is, [email protected]). the automated reply said
