How to sync two android phones - General Questions and Answers

Hello All,
Hope you are doing good. Here, I'm posting a question after goggling a lot with no solution.
I have two android phones, Samsung Galaxy Tab and HTC Desire X.
I have inserted my SIM into Galaxy Tab and currently browsing, texting and making/receiving calls only on that.
As you know, it is very difficult to talk using Tab as it is heavy. So, I want to receive those calls on my HTC Desire X (by using some app, please note that it doesn't have SIM).
Please let me know if there is a way to receive calls from different phone.(I don't prefer bluetooth headset)
I tried tablet talk, but it works in other way. Using this I can receive SMS and calls on tablet but cannot receive on HTC desire x (non-tablet)
Thanks

And I prefer this third party app should use bluetooth for sync.

I prefer not to do it at all because if someone gets into my account they have everything on my phone so yeh

It sounds cool but actually difficult to be carried out.
Never heard of any technique that enables a phone without a SIM card to call and send SMS via another phone.

Have you heard about tablet talk

How can i make video calls

What's the difference between this and Skype? I've made alot of videocalls on Skype and at least I can call friends on PC. What's the benefit of having Fringe installed? It's something like Whatsapp but for video calls as I see.
I understood that OP wants to make a 3G Video call...not a video call through whatever data connection it's active on the phone(including 3G). From my understanding that is a video call service that's depending on the operator. Vodafone is offering that in RO, I belive it's available for other countries/operators as well. And that means you can video call someone by his phone number
The service is described better HERE
Exactly rapier......
I meant the video calls through mobile network..... Not through internet....... Evn many java phones does this...... Y cant our much much advanced smart phones do this....??

I find gtalk smooth.
Think you can install gtalk with videocalls for desire s if you're rooted
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
Other option is if you both have the viber app
Plus Skype and fring as others have mentioned

I am in the same situation... I want to use this service too, but I started to think that is impossible with android phone. I had three phones with Android so far, but none of them have this option.....
As I saw, phones with 3G video call have a dedicated buton for this. This is not the case with our Android phones.
I called my operator now (Vodafone) and I got the confirmation. Android phones are not compatible with this service. Only phones that have a dedicated video call buton and are listed on the operator's compatibility list can use this service

Can some1 develop sumthing like this?????

3G native calling is not supported by Android. Only Samsung and LG android phones support it.
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App
I was searching for this some time too. Unfortunately only apps like Skype or Fring are making this possible on my Desire S, but the client has to be installed on the other person phone too and this is a bit limiting. This is my only dissapointment of Android so far but I am finding it strange to have this service natively supported on my 2008' Nokia but not on my 2011' smartphone.
I truly hope that someday someone will suddenly share a nice way do make videocalls through the mobile network with Desire S
Tango is a very good video call app

olyloh6696, you just opened this thread. Could it be exactly what the OP here wanted? I just recall, when I was using Edymion ROM, that I had that video camera buton but never tried to use it. It could be the equivalent of the hardware "video call" buton on some phones for making 3G calls. Someone with sense rom could eventually try it

I have it on Virtuous too. But how can we add recipients there?
You shouldn't add recipients...sorry cause I don't have the ROM installed to try, but I suppose that button works identical with the normal "call" button, just that it is a video call instead. The person you are calling should support the video calling feature and have the service active from the operator in order for it to work. The way it should be used is by selecting a person from your contacts, then call using that video buton instead of the normal call button
Ah thanks! That clears it up! Cheers

Sending double messages?

I've got an AT&T One X and my friends are saying it's sending SMS messages to them twice. Is there a fix for this? Is there any way to use the stock ICS messaging app?
I had this issue as well. Are you using the new lte sim card that came with the phone? I was just using my old micro sim and manually added my apn settings which resulted in double texts and texts not received. Also weak signal could be a contributing factor. Lastly, do you use the stock messaging app? I use go SMS and still had that problem. Resolved by activating the new sim with the stock apn settings.

personally i haven't anyone having this issue beside you...
however I remember this is one of the 4.0.3 problem...that happened with galaxy s2 on on some of their rom...
try to reflush the RUU...
I'm using a new SIM.
I'm also sending double texts most of the time. I'm using a Rogers HTC one X, with a virgin mobile sim card (unlocked phone)
I'm using the stock rom as well.
I keep getting duplicate messages from friends sometimes get 3 of the same messages with the same time stamp.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Up... anyone else find a solution?
double texts
Same here. Rogers HTC one X on virgin mobile (with new virgin mobile SIM)
I tend to send less doubles by using the stock app instead of GO SMS
Who's using go sms? Maybe that's the problem
Sent from my One X using xda premium
GO SMS
Yes, it appears that GO SMS is the culprit (for me...)
I switched to handcent and none of my friends have reported doubles (for now..)
I also tried Stock and pansi with the same results.
but for some reason, I can never connect to GO backup or handcent account from the device, it throws an "Other Error"
I'm running KingCobra v1.2 ROM

Can you explain what this means? I don't know much about APN settings.
EDIT: I did some googling, and I found a page that lists the Stock APN settings and I checked mine, and they are normal.
Go sms is the problem. I stopped using it last year in October when the galaxy s2 came out. Every now and then they release an update that causes it.

you dont need data connection constantly to access contacts...first time you sign into google accounts on your phone it syncs all your google contacts...
also it is advisable to store your contacts as google contacts instead of phone or sim contacts....especially if you change your ROM a lot
Hi
I get the same problem with jellybam 7.8 (based on CM10.1 RC2)
My SIM card is detected (I can connect to the data network of my provider), but when I try to import the contacts of my SIM, I get "no contact found"
When I ask the version of my SIM, I can see there are 112 free slots on 250.
the application SIM contacts is unable to find a contact
I found this a big incredible issue. How can this feature not working ? It's common task changing a phone and importing contacts from the sim. Expecially who like me keep that goggle sync task always deactivated.

Any news in how to import contacts from SIM?
Can't even find a app that helps, it sais that the SIM is empty but it's not, works perfect in other phones.
Again afaik the Google os had dropped support for SIM card contacts all together! Best bet is to downgrade back to ics and copy your sim contacts to your phone and back up to sd card.

Unable to answer calls when paired with the HTC One.

There is no answer option for incoming calls. Just "silence" and "ignore".
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
is not possible, sadly, not even with call handler pro, something htc changed in their phones, doesn't work on my Butterfly S either
Well I am using HTC One SV and can easily answer calls with call handling pro. With the native call handling though, you can only answer calls with Xperia handsets.
Now I think answering calls from the watch itself is to me at least not that important. When the phone is in your pocket without a headset, answering calls with speaker ON is useless. To take the call you need to take the phone out of your pocket anyway.
Now when you have a wired or wireless headset, you can always answer the call with the button on the headset. That is the setup I am using anyway. I have a wired urbanears headset with the answer button on it, so when I am out walking around, when I get a call, I take a look at the watch. If I want to reject the call I do it on the watch. If I want to take it, I use the button on the headphone. Win-win to me at least.
Note: just for the ability to answer calls I purchased custom call handling pro. Used it a little while but I am back to Sony app.

I guess you guys have android 4.3 on your phone's. Unfortunately One SV only has 4.2.2. So I guess as you said, it maybe HTC or even Google who has done something so that you can not answer calls via the watch.
Does anyone know how does pebble fare when it comes to call handling?

Buy and try it from playstore? Don't you have 15min time to try and returned it back, if it's not working.
But why is it always HTC when somebody has some problem?

use as phone?

Hi guys, I've got a Note 8.0 and I'm happy with It because I can use It as phone (3G version).
Does the LTE version of the note pro support the phone functionality? Can I use it to make phone calls? Of course I work with bluetooth earphones.
Thank you
Antonio
The answer is yes. I use my Note 12.2 with LTE to make calls, send texts, surf the web, etc. I'm using lg tone bluetooth stereo headset. Works like a champ.
Yes, I've used it (P905) to make phonecalls through my Bluetooth headset and my regular earphones.

The LTE version of the Note 12.2 has basically the same phone dialer, text message, browser, etc. that's found on all Galaxy phones. It's just displayed on a 12.2 screen. Wanna make a call? Tap the phone icon and dial away like you would do on any modern cellphone. Rince and repeat for text messaging, email, web browsing, etc. That's the point of getting the LTE version. It turns the tablet into a giant cell phone and you get the Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, instead of the Samsung Exynos processor to boot.

- Buy the tablet
- Start the tablet
- Open the app drawer.
That's it.
This is full 100% unaltered stock. These apps came pre-installed out of the box.
This is the p905 4G edition, not the p900 WiFi Only. The WiFi only model doesn't have a 3G/4G radio.

The dialer and message apps are already on it you just have to find a way to get them to work. I have the Verizon variant and downloaded a dialer app and when I tried to run it the tablet asked what app to use at default and the dialer app was one of the choices. But it wouldn't run. It is also listed in the app manager under all apps.
If it's listed as an app in the app manager, you could probably add a shortcut to it through Apex or Nova. Or possibly with Zooper Widget, which also has shortcuts to apps.

Quite good but the fps is a little bit low
This is true. Other downside of SideSync: no word gliding for you.
I did discover some upsides, including being able to drag files from my file manager onto it, and opening a movie from my phone that played on my tablet (instant media streaming).
And like an idiot, I still haven't tried placing a call.
Help, no Phone
Sorry if this is in the wrong spot, I just had major surgery and some problems concentrating
I just purchased the Verizon Note Pro 12 today and there is no phone icon anywhere..
I have searched through every spot on that thing and cannot find it. I have the Note 3 phone and other samsung stuff so I am pretty used to their systems..
..Is there something I need to do special to find this because I am about to having a multi-hundred dollar discus.
Yes it is 4G, yes i have the Sim card inserted, yes it told me my phone number, but no phone or dialer icons exists, and I am supossed to be using this on a trip in a day and a half so would like to know its functions.
Thanks everybody..
