[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viber Team:
@matrak06 -

Don't worry, Feel free to ask any question you may have :)

I'm not sure I fully understood your meaning. Once you install Viber on the same phone again, you should be able to activate with the code you got the previous time (meaning - no need to wait for the SMS again). So, write down the code, and use it the next time you uninstall and reinstall Viber on the same phone, and everything should be fine.

@Edidotnet -

Not yet. It's currently in the works, and we hope it is ready very soon. Stay tuned for updates.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arj03:

Actually, that is not a failure of Viber.

Please read our comment #174 above
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faithhh:
Actually, skype working.. tango working.. line working.. but viber not? i think yea its failure of app..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viber Team:
The fact that we haven't devoted the resources to fix it yet does not mean it's a failure of our development.

If a ROM completely changes the API of the microphone in a certain device to an API of a whole different phone (like CM9 is doing) - then it cannot be expected of us to immediately find a solution for that. Bear in mind please that the percentage of CM9 among the Android community is tiny.

We cannot keep adapting Viber to each and every sub-version of CM that's released by users on XDA on a daily basis. As we said, and will now say again - we will be waiting for CM9 to become official (probably in the near future) in CyanogenMod's homepage, and only then will we test it, try to understand the tweaks made in it, and adapt Viber accordingly.

We don't think less of ourselves for not adapting Viber to very specific Custom ROMs, even if other application developers managed to do it a few weeks before us. If inconvenience is caused right now - we honestly apologize for it. Remember that Viber is a relatively young and small company, and our resources are limited, but we will do our best to attend to this matter soon.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raul77:

What do they have to say about it?

Can they advise on what change they made on the API to the microphone?

If we have this info, we might be able to speed up the fixing of this issue, because it would help us avoid researching it ourselves (something we can't afford to do at this stage, as I explained above).

In the interim, we declared that one the *official* version of CM9 is released (on CyanogenMod's officiel homepage), we will test it ourselves here in our labs.

I'm also experiencing the one sided microphone problem with Viber (version 2.1.6) on my SGS with CM9 build 17. First I would like to thank the Viber team for listening on this forum, keeping us updated and probably trying to solve problems. In return I did quite some translation of the app to Dutch, so if you fix this problem fast I'll call it even :).

I wondered if anyone tried using a different microphone, like a haedphone with microphone or bluetooth headset, or is it very stupid to think this may solve the problem? And could it have to do with the (new) DSP audio manager?

It doesn`t work even on bluetooth!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viber Team:
Viber does support most Bluetooth/headset devices in general. However, some are not supported, due to the restrictions within the phone itself (sometimes certain iPhone/Android features or external devices do not function smoothly with 3rd-party applications). We have fixed Viber in our lastest versions so MOST of the BT/headset devices can work, but unfortunately some others are just not fully compatible yet, and we're continuously working to adapt the app to more and more BT and headset devices

As someone mentioned in another thread, it also enough to change your build.prop only!

Does the file manager (i.e. ASTRO, ES File Explorer, Root explorer) have root rights? I used ES notepad and my ES Explorer has all the rights it can have (root, mount file system). Not a problem. As a bonus, ES saves a backup of every system file you change (if set so in settings).

I'm afraid I cannot, can't find the option to upload a file. Maybe because I'm a junior member?

On the other hand, I don't know if it's wise to just use my build.prop file. It shouldn't be hard to follow the script, otherwise send me a pm!

Where has the guy from Viber gone?? It sure would be nice if they change this little problem! Thanks in advance Viber!

---------- Post added at 09:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:41 PM ----------

Since I received a worrisome pm from someone who thought he had to upgrade to ICS RS4.2 first in order to make this work around possible: you don't have be on that ROM particularly. If you have an ICS ROM with the typical Viber one sided mic problem (the other caller won't hear you, but you can hear him), try just changing the build.prop file as described. If that's not a solution you can always try upgrading to a different ICS ROM like Teamhacksungs CM9 or RS4.2.

However, note that our policy hasn't changed. We are thrilled to see solutions found by users, but we cannot offer an official solution for very specific ROMs, on very specific devices.

Hi,

As we explained above, at this stage we simply can't afford to devote the resources and manpower to fixing this problem, since it was caused by the Custom ROM itself. It's important to understand that even though the problem seems easy to solve, it might (and probably will) cause problems for other users who don't have Custom ROMs, and surely will require an "expensive" round of testing before release.

We are working these days on other projects, including a new, big version of Viber for Android. Once these projects are done we will attend to fixing the audio problem caused by the Custom ROM.

In the meanwhile, it is advisable to contact the Custom ROM developers and have them resolve this error.

Cm9 RC1 is published for many cm9 devices.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viber Team:
That is actually not accurate - the issue with CM9 is not caused by Viber, but rather by the Custom ROM changing the internal microphone settings. This prevents Viber from recognizing which phone is hosting the app, thus not able to correctly utilize the microphone.

We've had long debates here on XDA about when and if we will add full compatibility for the CM9 microphone issue, and in short - we plan to add a fix to this issue in the future, but we're still not sure when exactly. Meanwhile, we recommended the ROM users to contact the ROM developers and see what they can do to fix this issue.
