Managing contacts on a dual-sim phone - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

A co-worker asked me to find this out for him. He has a dual-SIM phone. He wants to use WhatsApp on both SIMs, so he has a WhatsApp account associated with each SIM. He doesn't want contacts associated with one WhatsApp account to be mixed up (or even visible) when he's using the other WhatsApp account. Is this do-able?
He's running Lollipop, but I'm not sure which release. Probably very recent.
Thanks.

O.K., thank you very much. From the description, it appears that Parallel Space will do what my friend is wanting.

Having trouble linking facebook contact pics...

I had no issue with this with my original Evo 4G. Once I had contact's linked to their Facebook accounts, their FB image would appear as their contact image. The only exception to this would be if they had a Google image.
I'm having trouble getting the same thing to work on the new 4G LTE. The contacts are definitely linked. However their FB image doesn't appear. Just the default "anonymous grey dude" image.
If you are having the same issue as above(which I had) try these:
1. HaxSync
or
2. FaceBook Contact Sync
This worked for me!!! Finally all my contacts have pictures!!!! Found this fix while googling...not my work. Just wanted to share!
EDIT: Nevermind...

Do a Google search for 'Photo Unlocker APK' and you might be able to find the app that will solve your problem.
I'm using it and it works great:

There was a thread here on this forum that had a working link, but unfortunately, that link is now dead for whatever reason.

I use this to. It unlocks the photos in other apps on your phone like messenger and others but it still wouldn't work for me in the people app. Thats why I posted what i found.
In your search did you ever find an app that syncs your Facebook calendar with your Google calendar? Sense does this just fine, but if I switch to a non-Sense ROM someday I'd still like that feature.
My limited searching kept pulling up instructions on "syncing" the two by exporting the FB calendar and importing it into Google's, which obviously isn't the same as syncing the two.

Use the App called Greenify to hibernate the App when you are not using it. This should do the trick but you need to be rooted to do this.
thanks, i will try that (i'm rooted)
edit : if i hibernate facebook i won't receive the notification right?

That`s right, so just set up your settings in facebook that everytime you get a facebook notification, you get an email.
no it's ok i still get the notification via messenger, but it's weird cause i don't see the messenger app in greenify
both messenger and the original app.. Were always battery suckers..
So better to just uninstall it.

[APP] GeoMessage - Automatic Location Based SMS

GeoMessage is an app that'll automate sending sms messages to friends and family based on your location.

You can set up geographic areas based on latitude and longitude, address, or current location. Each location can send a text message to the person you designate. There are options for time of day restrictions, limiting how frequently the message can be sent, and you can customize your own message however you'd like.
Perfect for:
-When you get to work and want to let your significant other know (but you don't want to have to remember)
-When you want to let your friends know you've just gotten to the party
-Telling your parents you safely made it to school
This is a slightly older project I worked on for a while, and decided to post it up here to see if there's any interest for further development of features.
Feedback is greatly appreciated. I know the UI could probably use some work to make it more intuitive.

play store says it's not compatible with my g900f. Is this restricted by country?
Edit: i've just opened the link via mobile and it says not available in my country. Please make it available for all.

Sorry about that. I just went and selected "all countries". It says it could take a while to update though.
Let me know what you think. I take criticism pretty well

[APP]Wear Messenger works with Minuum Keyboard!

****Not my app or nor I have not been paid by this dev lol***
Now you can reply (not create) from your watch! You do not need an input device (ie minuum) to use it, but the reason for this thread is that you CAN use it with minuum to reply to texts. :good:

you must install from ADB not playstore
Btw, you can also create new messages with your Watch.
You have to install the Wear Mini Launcher and then start wear messenger and you're able to write new messages. The only problem is that you have to know the number of the contact you want to write^^
Another "problem" is that you only can reply and write SMS. You have to install the messenger bridge of the same dev to get the ability to answer to your Whatsapp messages. It will convert the whatsapp message into a sms with a prefix and convert it back to be sent via whatsapp.
Actually the dev works on the support of the latest whatsapp version. The Update will be live today or tomorrow he told me.
Does anyone know how to cancel a message once started? I couldn't do it and the only way out of the app was to send it (which I didn't want to do).

I've never properly used a lollipop device but isn't the people app supposed to have a in built export import feature? I'm surprised that you even have to use a 3rd party app

I will just backup to google, best way i guess.
