Hello,
I wanted to try out Whatsapp, but because I want to keep my private data for me, I blocked the access to my contacts via AppOps (on CM10.2). Now I can not add any of my contacts to Whatsapp, because the only way to do this is via my contact book.
So, my question is how to add contacts to Whatsapp without letting Whatsapp read my full contact list (manually?)
Thank you very much!

Hey everyone!
i just noticed that when you want to copy/paste a contact info to another person to text from the contacts list it wont allow it.
-i can hit options on the persons name and a option pops up to share it but only by: bluetooth, email, gmail, and yahoo mail.
no text to option?
is there a way to get that option on there? or only have to wait for 2.3 gingerbread.
Share contacts via SMS
Please help!
I encountered a few problems before I can successfully sync the contacts in whatsapp. But now another problem, the whatsapp contacts was split from the original contact already in the database, ie, the system created duplicate contacts which only contain the mobile no. used for whatsapp.
Thank you!

i suppose to have the same problem ! whatsapp not give me a list of all mycontact that i can use with him, only when i make a message or recive a message from a contact it appear on whatsapp contact list !
whatsapp contact refresh
hi,
I hope this will help.
in whatsapp, touch the new message icon on top right hand corner. then touch the menu icon at the bottom of screen. touch the refresh icon.
It will sync the contacts.
as for the duplicates in contacts, i normally delete the ones for whatsapp. as whatsapp will refresh to the original contacts in phone or google account.
good luck.
I have contacts on my Google account that I will never, ever want to call, but I would like to keep as contacts in order to know that they are calling me (don't ask...)
Is there any way to hide contacts (or preferably a whole group) from the All Contacts list in the dialer? I have already removed them from the My Contacts group via web gmail(which worked on previous phones) and changed the settings for People to only show that group, but that didn't work.

simply hide them by copying the contacts you need to phone and turning the visiblity of contact on sim unchecked...
I have someone in a chat in hangouts (via their email). How do I save that person to my contacts for further communication?
I can't seem to find any options other than asking them for their email and copy paste it into a new contact. There should be a way to do it directly in the app.
Thanks
Contacts app is not syncing wahtsapp.
I mean:
- from whatspp I can see my contacts, so whatsapp is indeed accessing my contacts
- but from contacst app, when opening details of a contact, I can only send SMS or email or do a Duo call, no way to send a whatsapp
Ok never mind, even this time I managed by myself in 5 minutes hahahahaha :-D
I had to enable: enable 3rd party integrations...
thx and sorry
