[Q] Viber no longer works on any android phone - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I hope someone here has seen this issue so they can give me some advice as viber support has been very slow and next to useless.
Basically I have a just came from a Xperia Z1 (Viber working) to a Nexus 5 and put on my defacto apps of which Viber is one of them and straight away after entering the phone number it said waiting for sms activation and a couple of seconds after it pops up with 'error' on the screen and that is all it says.
Prior to this I have had many android phones and never had an issue with activating viber.
Troubleshooting wise I have tried all of the below and nothing so far works.
1. Tried activating on wifi and 3g
2. Tried my wife's number on my nexus 5 which gets past the initial country code and phone number screen and tries to send an sms
3. Tried my number on my wife's phone and get the same lovely 'Error' popup
4. Placed my wife's sim card into my phone and activation works so proving this issue is number specific not phone specific.
The screenshot of the 'Error' is below.

Viber support seem to of gone very quiet and it looks like a Viber rep does lurk around here so bumping the thread to see if they can help me out.

Word of warning guys if any of you like myself installed the Android SDK and emulator to try and teach yourself programming then make sure Viber does not get installed if you login with your google account.
Basically this triggers their 'system' into thinking you are a spammer and they then block your number so you are unable to use Viber ever again on any device you own.
Viber support are next to useless and it looks like I will never be able to use Viber again despite doing absolutely nothing wrong whatsoever.

Viber support is blocked your GSM number
Viber support is blocked your GSM number, because of Viber spam politics, or something like this. I have the same problem with one of my GSM numbers. From Viber support answered me that they will never UNBLOCK this number (Viber politics and rules) , I already change my blocked GSM number...

Does this Software Exist for Pocket PC WM2003 ?

Hello
I have been looking for Software for Pocket PC XDA which can be use as Answering Machine" and will serve as personal secretary. It will answer my calls, play prerecoded message of my choice and record a message for me. It has all the features of a conventional answering machine and maybe more.
like for example :-
Answering incoming calls after the predefined time
You can choose pick up time from 0 seconds up to 20 seconds
Playing one of the prerecorded responses to the phone line
You can record your own responses, download one from the internet or just send to your mobile phone via IR, bluetooth or MMS.
Recording a voice message
After "Answering Machine" will pick up the phone and play the response of your choice to the phone line it will start recording the message. You can set maximum incoming message length to be from 5 seconds up to 2 munites.
Pick up and Hang up are possible at any time while AM is answering the call
Even after "Answering Machine" started answering your call you can easily take control - just like with traditional machines
All voice messages are stored locally and are available at any time
That's the best part! You don't have to pay for your voice mailbox to you operator!
A special view allows you to manage recorded voice messages
You can browse, rename and delete your voice messages.
Caller phone number along with the date and time of the call are stored
With a single button (green key) you can call to a person who left a message.
Global indicator of the new messages
Even if "Answering Machine" is running in the background you can easily see whether you have new messages.
i know it does exist for other platform but unfortunately not for Pocket PC Windows Mobile

Click to collapse
Mine never disappears though. Its always at -1 unless I recieve emails. But after i delete them its back at -1/0. its been like that for over a week now.
Has anyone been able to figure this one out. I just cant seem to get rid of the -1 on my email. Its only in that one yahoo.com account. I have other yahoo accounts as well, but they seem to be fine. I dont want to completely wipe the phone and set everything back up again. I have the phone just the way i like it.
just deleta that one account and re-set it. that should do it

I would if i could but its the first account that was made on the phone which if you have a vibrant and try to delete it. It tells you the only way to do it is to reset the whole entire phone to delete the account. Which I think is dumb in a way that was built. Also to note to delete that account, the account may be associated with other things like apps or whatever. Which I have no clue to which ones they are associated with since just about all my email accounts are associated with many things that use multiple email accounts. So basically I guess the only way is to just wipe the whole entire phone and start new.
Email sync and notifications
I set up my hotmail on the email. And it does not sync the account properly and never gives me notifications for new email.
Even when I refresh it, it doesn't load up all my emails.
I have deleted the account and set it up again, but that didnt help either..
HELPPP please! I need email on my phone!

Talk free, Skype-to-Skype
It's free to call each other if you all have Skype – wherever you are in the world.
Call and text phones
It's great value to call phones and sendtexts to people who aren't on Skype yet.
Send text messages at great Skype rates
Whether your friends are down the street, in the next town or overseas, send text messages to their mobiles.​
Skype is a very useful program to preserve us to communicate, in voice and video, with our contacts in the world, using our internet connection. In addition to this, you can also make calls and video group. However it has some limitations, unlockable by purchasing Skype credit.
This version is for mobile devices with OS Windows Mobile. This version is quite old, but it's the latest on the web, given that Skype has decided to withdraw all copies from the web and to abandon the project, at least for Windows Mobile.
CAUTION:
Use wireless connections or connections that are not on consumption of MB. (The program, download and send large quantities of MB)

Version info
Hello, could you please provide more information of this version and where it came from since development and versions have stopped by the producer of this software?
Thank you very much in advance.
Has someone tried this software?
@staurakis
Hello, the version is visible in the program settings (do not remember exactly, because now I have my HTC on hand)
The only thing I know is that programmers have stopped working on the version of Windows Mobile for unknown reasons and that this is the latest version. (but is not available from the original website ... you can only find if you look good in the internet)
@ggoogle
I personally use on my HTC Touch HD (Blackstone) and also my other friends have it installed, and no problems!

Skype for Windows Phone

For Skype fans, and more specifically those who lean towards the Windows Phone side of the mobile world, it seems as if the official Skype app has been hanging over our heads for quite some time now. Skype for Windows Phone was first released as a public beta at the end of February this year.
Fast forward almost eight weeks, and Microsoft have finally deemed Skype for Windows Phone a functional and complete app worthy of a 1.0 version and ready for public consumption. The final 1.0 version of the Skype application has come just in time for all those enthusiastic consumers who are raiding local stores to snap up the Nokia Lumia 900, the latest must have smartphone.

The Skype app is now live in the Windows Phone Marketplace and brings with it all of the features you would expect from a mobile version of the popular software that was originally created by Niklas Zennström and Janus Friis but subsequently purchased by Microsoft in 2011. After downloading, users will be able to place voice and video calls to any of their contacts as well as make use of the built-in instant messaging type features to send text based messages.
Calls to other Skype users are obviously free of charge with the app not being platform limited, meaning that Windows Phone Skype users can place voice and video calls to any worldwide Skype user, regardless of the platform they are using Skype on. The ability to search through and add new contacts is a welcome feature, with the final release also benefitting from some user interface improvements over the beta version.
The lack of backgrounding abilities may prove to be a bit of a deal breaker for a lot of users, meaning that the Skype app actually has to be running for incoming calls to be received. With that in mind, Skype for Windows Phone does seem to perform very well over 3G and LTE data connections, as well as being extremely functional on Wi-Fi as you would expect.
The small inadequacies of the software shouldn’t detract from what is otherwise a very polished and attractive looking Skype implementation and is sure to be a welcome addition to the Windows Phone Marketplace for regular users of the established VoIP service.

[Q] HTC DNA Google Apps Lookup / Directory Search BUSTED

So I came from using a droid x running quite a few different ROMs. On the gingerbread and older ROMs I'd have to use the "Google Apps Lookup" app to do a corporate directory search on my Google apps accounts. When I would use ICS or newer ROMs it was just built into the people app. Seems to me that HTC has done a great job of busting or removing this feature from the phone. Am I crazy or can anyone else clue me in on how to get this to do the directory search and not just local/sim/skype contacts? Honestly I've google'd the hell out of this and RTFM attempting to figure it out on my own. HELP! don't want a great phone to be flawed for corporate use.
Thanks in advance for anybody's feedback.

I read about this feature in a thread about saving contacts to Google by default.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
Talked with HTC
So I've gone through and checked every single one of those boxes.
It still doesn't search for directory users.
I called Verizon and they told me to contact HTC on the issue because they would be no help.
I got a hold of a rep at HTC who said he doesn't see that functionality being built into the HTC version of the contacts/people app they customized in sense 4+
He opened a ticket for me to see if there could be a future update to allow for this feature.
Keep in mind that my corporate google apps for business account has probably well over 50,000 contacts in it and I wouldn't want to sync all of those to my local accounts.
It's supposed to operate like exchange server does. It looks at the local accounts for contacts then reach out to the directory for additional users.
bummed out that this very corporate essential components not working.
Click on the arrow next to the Google one, still not there?

yup
Yup
Workaround
As a temporary work around I side loaded the gingerbread apk from the play store:
https: //play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.enterprise.lookup
I installed it on my DroidX from the play store and took the apk from it and installed it on my DNA
It ran and I can do the look up of the corporate directory searches that way for now. Yet is still really bothers me.
