I thought they said they have not got it approved yet from Apple. That is why they probably started iPhone first, the approval process could take months.

Before I go into addressing your concern, I'd like to first apologize
for the delay in my responding to your inquiry. We are committed to
answering your questions as quickly and accurately as possible. However,
we are currently receiving unusually high volumes which caused the
delayed response.
I understand you wish to have more information regarding the ability to
use video calling features in Yahoo! Messenger for Android.
Thanks for your suggestion of a new feature for Yahoo! Messenger for
Android. The current version of Yahoo! Messenger for Android doesn't

tell us about what you'd like to see in a future version.
I'll pass your suggestion on to the Yahoo! Messenger Product Team and
they will put it under consideration for a future release. (Our
development cycles can be quite lengthy, so please don't expect to see
it right away if they decide to include it.) However, be assured that we
are continually striving to make Yahoo! Messenger the best messenger
product on the market, and your suggestions help us to decide what is
most important to our customers.
If you have any additional questions or concerns, please let us know as

Wow nowhere in that response does it say that it is coming at all, just says they are continuing to develop, that kinda sucks since we know it is on the myTouch HD, well, I had messenger installed and on auto update but after reading that letter I guess I am gonna uninstall and free up some space It just drives me nuts that we have one of the most capable handsets on the market and we can't get a damn phone to comp. video chat app, that is like the LAST thing that I want my Evo to do, C'est la vie

[Q] Viber with BM MIUI

Having launch problem at the moment, any help?

Hi,
This is a member of Viber's development team.
Can you please elaborate more on your issue?
What device you have?
Viber only partially supports MIUI but we might be able to help anyway.
Thanks,
Viber Team

When Viber will be supported in ICS ?

I'm currently running on an ICS MIUI.
I did launch the application and nothing is shown, but I believe the background service is still running as I could get viber contact list.

it is viber supposed to work on ICS?? or not yet?

Ahh... you're running MIUI on ICS.
We are aware of the problems with Viber on ICS, and working this very moment to fix it.
As you know, many fundamental changes were made on ICS (not only visual improvements). In order to adapt Viber to ICS the best way and make sure we don't release a half-baked app, we need some time for developing and testing.
We estimate that the release would take up to several weeks, but we wouldn't want to guarantee a specific release date at this stage.
Once we have any news we'll keep you posted - we apologize for the temporary inconvenience.

this makes me feel like reading a newspaper lol

How so?

Are you a politician ?

We're a company.
As much as we would have loved to develop everything as soon as possible and throw promises in the air, we also have to be realistic and a little restricted with guaranteeing things to our users, because we don't want them to be disappointed, nor do we want to not live up to our promises and estimates
It has nothing to do with being a politician... just credibility of a business

Ok.. So here's my question. I emailed your team and submitted a trouble ticket, as subsequently advised after my initial email, regarding the incompatibility with ICS. That was over six weeks ago. In fact the sdk for Android 4.0 has been out even longer than that! So what's the delay? Is there only one coder working on this? Why have Tango, Skype, Fring, et al, been able to release compatible apps before the Galaxy Nexus was even released.. Yet Viber can't..?
I'm asking a serious question, primarily because of how frustrating it is. I'm now stuck using an inferior product (Tango) as a stop-gap, and all I want is Viber to work with ICS already!

First, I want to agree with this guy, but then again viber does treat their product with care and quality work so that's why they are that much better. I'm holding off on Ics just because of viber so I understand your frustration. I don't want to use tango cuz it's not great.
2 things.
1) try using fring. It's much better than tango. Tango isn't good quality.
2) thank you for making a great app viber. We are anxious because we are waiting on you. I can only ask that you guys hurry haha.

Thanks for the suggestions. Fring is out of the question for me, as I choose not to support Israeli companies as part of the BDS movement. I guess I'll keep on waiting.

I wouldn't want to make any comparisons to other products. I can tell you about ourselves that traditionally, we've always preferred delaying releases until we're much more calm about its functionality and quality, rather than releasing it simply as soon as possible, so we are in line with all the other communication applications who released it since day 1.
This time we might have been a little under-prepared, that's true, but still it is important to note that Andriod 4.x user percentage among all Android users is still very, very low. If we were to follow the "usual" criteria for devoting resources within a company, you would see how that couldn't be our first priority.
However, we are working on it as hard as we can (with more than one coder! haha) and we should have good news soon. I'll keep you posted

It has been almost a month, care to give us some details on the progress?
Is viber going to be available to users of Android 4.x anytime soon?

it looks like they are still coding for the new system

@Casilan,
We have made some serious progress in the past couple of weeks, and the end is certainly in sight.
We still don't have an exact release dates, but we estimate it will take up to several weeks for it to be fully ready and released to Market.
Note that our development team is working around the clock to complete it ASAP. We apologize for the delay, but it's important to understand that it's delayed because we want to ensure that the app is released free of bugs. Stay tuned for news - it's coming soon.

[Q] The Simpsons: Tapped Out

So, another day another game thats not compatible with our devices despite being compatible with the Prime and Nexus 7 (can anyone confirm that this works on the Nexus 10?)
My question is has anybody managed to get it working and if so how?
Thanks in advance

Can't commit about whether it's working on a Nexus 10, but it not working on my TF700 is frustrating me too. While you can't download it from the store, I've tried installing several different versions and it closes on all of them after the title screen appears.

i heard that it does work on the nexus 10 from other forums. Exactly the same story for me my friend, tried about 6 different .apk files all with the same result. It is lazy development by EA especially if the screen resolution is the problem, since the Nexus 10 has a higher one. It makes no sense for a top end device to lose so much compatibility.
I sent EA an email yesterday asking why, and now im waiting for a reply.
Sit tight

Cool. Will be interested to hear if EA responds. My guess is if they do they'll place the blame on Asus and/or Nvidia.

well actually they havent even bothered to reply to me yet, despite me sending 3 emails. its been over a week now, they obviously can't be arsed because they are awful developers.
I'll keep on trying anyway, got nothing to lose right?

a small update
So i actually managed to get a reply from EA (not to the email i directly sent them, which has now been over two weeks since ive had a reply, but a forum topic i started about the compatibility).
They said "It is the decision of the company that builds the device, which Android version runs on it. The Simpsons: Tapped Out requires Andriod version 2.3.3 (or higher)."
Er what? For starters android tablets dont run anything lower than honeycomb (aside from the original galaxy tab), and the TF700 is a MUCH newer device so automatically runs at least honeycomb. As we all know it did in fact come with ICS.
So yeah, pretty unhelpful, but at least i got a reply. Waiting for the next one now i guess.

LOL. That's an even more useless response then I expected you'd get, but thanks for the updates.

UPDATE!
I received an email from EA today:
"Thank you for contacting Electronic Arts.
I sincerely apologize for the delay in response. Going forward, we would do our best to respond in time.
Having going through your email I found that you want to know about the compatibility for the game "The Simpsons: Tapped Out". I'll do my best to help you out.
I request you to please refer the link given below to check the compatibility of the game.

Feel free to contact us with any additional questions or concerns. You can also receive online assistance at http://help.ea.com/

Go on guys, follow the google link, you'll find its worse than useless.
I guess im grateful for a reply FINALLY, however aside from "helping me out" that link made the reply useless.
Lets all give EA a round of applause.

Still no reply from EA I guess....I started this forum topic over on the Tapped Out forums. I encourage anyone with an Infinity to hop over there and voice your disappointment in the support EA provides for its hottest games. Here is the link: hxxp://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/list/0/9453462.page#28257145.

Actually....
Appologies for not posting sooner but ive been pretty busy with uni.
Anyway i have indeed received another reply. After them asking me what device i was using, what version and what the problem with the game is (!!!), they forwarded the information i gave them to another department :-|. THEN i got a reply...
They said that they would forward my query to the studio who actually make the game, and they will deal with it.
However, they said that i shouldnt really expect a reply, and even then they may do nothing. He ended by saying the game may or may not ever be compatible. Great.
I definitely shall be joining that forum and voicing my opinion, it worked for the sims free play after all.
At the moment it doesnt seem likely.

Wasn't there a "worst company" award recently?

I'm an owner of a Acer a700, which have the same hardware (tegra3, 1920*1200 res), and the game don't work on it too...

I did wonder if this device was compatible given the strong similarities. Thanks.
still no compatibility despite the latest update. Im gonna go on the forums and complain some more and request that the 4.3 update also includes compatibility I suggest everyone else does the same for the maximum impact.

SUCCESS!!
MAJOR UPDATE! The compatibility on the play store still lists the game as incompatible.
HOWEVER, google search "the simpsons tapped out v4.3.0 apk" and click the third link (it's apkwikipedia). You will find an apk to download in a zipped format (.zip or .rar can't remember). Anyway, the apk is working and as i speak im downloading the updates on the main page!
It is a modded apk (at least one of the .apk files in the package is) so you will get unlimited money.
Regardless, it is now possible to play the game on the tablet. I will update any problems/issues encountered once i've tested it.
Download and get playing! Spread the word!
EDIT: i have played around with it and everything seems to work as well as on my phone. If you lose your friends list, just sign in and out again of origin and they should turn up.

Finally got this game to work on my Asus TF700 and not by using a modded apk. Got fed up with the freezing and force closes that I was experiencing ever since I got this tablet using the official firmware, so I unlocked and rooted my tablet and loaded the Cromi-X rom onto it. Big improvement in performance. And to get This game to work, I downloaded an app called Market Helper which tricks thr Play store into thinking your phone or tablet is a different phone or tablet. The Market Helper app requires root, isn't available in the Play Store (so google it to find it) and while I couldn‘t get it to work the Play Store app, it worked great via the online Play Store (and once you reboot, your device ID goes back to it‘s orginal state).

Glad more people are getting it to work. To clarify, the link i posted does has both a modded .apk and a non added .apk
Also, slightly unrelated, how is Cromi-X performance wise? Was it easy to do? Did you keep all your apps and system preferences? Will it be possible to keep the game when installing this custom rom? Need to do more research before i commit!

Dryft Updated News!

They were so slow to respond me but they replied this:
Thanks for signing up as a beta tester for Dryft!
We’ve been hard at work building out the technology and working with the leading hardware vendors you know and love to figure out the best way for them to leverage Dryft. We apologize that we have to keep things under wraps for a bit longer, but know that we’ll keep you updated from here on in and expect a big announcement from us close to mid next year. Thank you for your interest and patience!​

Maybe I missed it, but what exactly did Huawei/Honor deliver?

Kernel source code

Honor 8 Pro was just released, and the sourcesnare scheduled to be released just this month. That is a good sign. I hope they continue it that way in order for development to grow in a pace that we, power users and developers want.
