Viber wrote: » @draffodx - Yes, when WiFi is available, Viber keeps your phone connected to WiFi instead of switching over to 3G, for several reasons: 1. it doesn't eat up your 3G data. 2. it wants to stay available to receive calls/texts. 3. as a whole, WiFi reception is usually better than 3G. This function should be meaningless, since your phone switches to 3G anyway (i.e it would have stayed connected the internet anyway).

frash wrote: » Sorry if this has been asked & answered before but I'm new to Viber & have some friends on it already. I'm on Android & when I send to other Androids the message goes to 'delivered' and I know they got the message. When I send to iPhones the message only goes to 'sent' and they don't seem to get the message. Anyone seen this?

Viber wrote: » @frash - let's do this: find a friend who has Viber on iPhone. Text them on Viber when they're right next to you, in order to make sure they are online and receiving this message. Also - tell them to reinstall Viber and download the latest version from AppStore, to make sure they don't have some old version of the app.

Viber wrote: » Viber's solution to bypass such blocks was adding the second set of ports (it used to be only 2, now it's 4), but as you can understand, some networks can simply block ALL ports except for the specific ones they need opened. There is no running away from it - you'll simply have to ask the network administrators to open it

I had my friend in it the last month or two and it really freaked me out because the mate that appeared to have viber actually commited suicide last year. Eventually I tried ringing it and it was my nieces number over in France that rang. I tried another one or two and even though it says in viber contacts who it is, it rings my niece again.

Viber wrote: » Thanks for the info. A few more questions if I may: 1. when this happened, did the number that was planted inside other people's contacts was actually written INSIDE their contact pages? (in other words - the number literally overrode the old number of the wrong contacts, or simply when you called these people, you suddenly reached a different person and were surprised?) 2. the backup you mentioned - you mean a backup of Android?
