Unable to play whatsapp voice messages on android 6.0 Lenovo a 7700 and Lenovo tab 8 - General Questions and Answers

I have gone through the list of all forums and also the FAQ in this forum and to me it seems that this is the right place. Please feel free to suggest or move this thread to some other forum if I made a mistake.
I am unable to play whatsapp voice messages on a Lenovo a 7700 android 6.0 device. I also tested on another Lenovo device which is a tablet 8.
In both cases, after pressing the play button, the content is played for approximately a second and then it stops playing. The user has to press the play button again and it will play the content for approximately another second again.
This started happening almost simultaneously about a month ago. I am assuming that there may be a whatsapp update that happen automatically on both of these devices. All I can find is that a whatsapp had recently changed the voice file format. But I am able to play with the new voice file format on both devices if I share the content to my email and then download and play it.
I have tried a variety of after researching various links on the Internet but have not been able to resolve the issue. Since the only thing that is common between the two mobile devices on which I tested this android 6.0 version, I'm wondering if there is any problem with that specific version.
Thanks for any inputs
I only way I could communicate with the outside world using a computer in device. So this is very important to me.
Thank you

Are you sure that your WhatsApp Messenger is the latest version, Version 2.17.422? If not, upgrade it and try again, please.

I upgraded to 2.17.427
Thank you for your response. I upgraded to the latest version of the reading your response. The earlier version was in the 300 series.
I'm still facing the same issue in both the devices.
Here is a query that may possibly at least provide some kind of a workaround.
There's whatsapp rely on an external player or does it have an internal player? Can I somehow configure it to use an external player? If so, then I can download a player specifically for that file format.
When I send the file as an attachment in email and then download the file and then play using Google play music, it works okay. The problem is that it is difficult for me to do all of these steps with the problem in my hands.
Even if there is some way where I can share this whatsapp message with the voice automatically to a player which can then play it, that will be good. However, on android, we are not given that choice. We can only share through email, Bluetooth and share it. If I can somehow configure whatsapp to share the messages to an audio player, that would also work.
Thanks for any inputs.

Clear the cache of the WhatsApp and replay please

There is no cache available on whatsapp
Thank you for your response. I checked whatsapp but there is no cache setting available on whatsapp.
There is an option that tells you about the storage used for photo whatsapp and I deleted the storage for one particular contact and then tried sending a voice message through the same contact. It still does not work.
I have double checked the version. It is shown on the help/app info menu.
It is kind of surprising that I am the only one who seems to be having a problem and that too at multiple devices. I don't even own one of the devices which is Lenovo. However, it has been installed more than one year ago and has been working fine.
Please suggest if there is any way to troubleshoot this.
Is there any is kind of a whatsapp forum for bugs where people can report any of the problems that they find.
Thank you for your perseverance and continuing to respond on this thread. Highly appreciated.

Thank you for your response. I cleared the cache. It did not work. Ultimately, I uninstalled whatsapp. Then I reinstalled again (without rebooting the phone). Whatsapp was able to find messages from Google Drive and asked me if I wanted to restore them? In the hope to fix the issue, I wanted to do a completely new start so I did not restore the messages also.
It is still showing the problem. I'm really perplexed as to what can whatsapp remember after installation that the same problem is still being experienced. Is there something external to whatsapp that could because the problem?

[Q] New Android User.

Hi, I just got a Sensation a couple of days ago and there have been a few problems I hope you guys could help me with.
Firstly, my Android Market only shows a few of the apps that there should be. Loads of apps such as the launchers or Angry Birds for example aren't showing up. When I open the Market from my desktop it says that these apps cannot be installed in my country (UAE) when i have friends here with other Android phones with the very same apps.
Secondly, whenever I play a video on the phone it plays fine for about a minute and then the audio switches off and it only comes back if I skip scenes. I don't if this is a fault with my phone or maybe a wrong format I'm using, can you guys recommend a converter?
Thanks for any help, it's much appreciated.

I do not know the answer to your first question, but I would assume that your friends either have a different ROM flashed to their phone that allows them to bypass country restrictions, or they have downloaded the APK's from somewhere else, then 'adb push'ed them to their device... Someone more knowledgeable than me can answer that one...
The second question regarding video converters... I have used an application called Handbrake in the past to re-encode my video files, and it has worked wonders. I highly recommend it. Link: http://handbrake.fr/
Hope this helps.

You can try to find the apk for the apps you want and install them outside of Market by copying the apk to your SD card then installing from there (be sure to check the allow non-market applications box under the applications settings) this should (I think) bypass any country restrictions. If you look around I'm sure you can find the apks you want. If not you could probably make a request for certain apps and someone can upload the apk for you.
Thanks, I'll let you know how it goes.
Where do I paste the App file in the SD card?
Anywhere . You can, for example create new folder - "Apps" on yours sd and paste applications there.
Wystukane z mojego Swifta przy użyciu Tapatalk
Ahh, sorry should've been more specific. After copying the file over, where do I go in the phone to install it?
Nevermind, got it.
You can use the web-market to install apps. No idea why it doesn't appear on the phone's market app, but it should appear on the web market.
market.android.com
For the second problem: what video format are you using? Try *.mp4 or *.avi and see if they work Also, what resolution is the video?

You can try another video player such as MoboPlayer to see if you have converted your video ok.

I also use HandBrake converter.
There is an app called android market enabler "lets you access paid apps from countries where paid apps are not yet available". But it requires you to root your phone which is not currently possible on our phone. This could be what your friends are using.
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/market-enabler-v3-0-8-for-root-users/
I just copied some random avi files I had on my desktop, which gave me the problem above. Haven't tried using converter yet but I'll give it a shot now.

Thanks guys, I tried the qqplayer and its playing perfectly. Though one more thing, how do you set custom (from the SD card) notifications for things like messages or emails? Atm I can only find it for ringtones. Oh and how do I switch off the annoying sound upon unlocking?
Sorry for the trouble, first time user and all. =/
lolwut16,
I am from UAE too and have the same problems with paid apps from Android Market.
I am just waiting a software solution to turn my Sensation S-off and install a "market enabler".

make a folder on the root of your storage card & name it notifications & put the sounds in there.
for the weather sound you can disable that in the weather app or somewhere like that

Viber on HTC chacha

Viber is agreat app, and it works fine on the htc chacha. but there is one problem. everything except the messaging part of the app is in portrait mode... so I should rotate the phone sideways, to use it... does anyone know how to fix this? (yes, landscape mode is enabled in the viber options)
Hi,
This is a member of the Viber R&D Team!
We haven't thoroughly tested Viber on this specific device yet. You can check out our list of officially supported devices at: http://bit.ly/rqbZEw
The new version 2.2 is out on the Play store. You can upgrade to this version , it might be more stable on your device.
If you have any question about Viber - please feel free to ask.
Viber Team
the new viber update works prefect on chacha
@ts3010 -
We're glad to hear it works fine, thank you for the report
@archacha -
We are aware of this issue, and we hope to implement Landscape mode in the other screens as well in future versions, but unfortunately we are not yet sure when exactly it would be ready.
We will keep you posted with news and updates, and we apologize for the temporary inconvenience.
Hello,
I have a HTC ChaCha and was trying to activate Viber on, but have the following issue:
- I installed Viber v 2.2.1;
- Got my SMS with the activation code:
- But unfortunately the ChaCha keyboard is not properly working with Viber - when pressed buttons type different symbols than present on them and I actually can find all digits except 1. Here is the problem - the activation code I receive is always one and the same and it starts with 11**, but with my HtC ChaCha I can not type 1 and therefore I can not activate Viber.

We are not aware of such a problem with ChaCha (that it types symbols and mixed letters instead of numbers).
Are you sure the cause to this issue is not a 3rd-party app or ROM that caused a change in keyboard configuration?
We invite you to contact our support team and give the details of the problem - they will try to assist you further. Here's the link:

Are you using a custom ROM by any chance? If so, do you have the proper keypad files for your region/carrier?
Hey guys,
I have a problem with Viber that I hope someone can help me solve. Here it is: I updated Viber a few days ago and for some reason, when I want to type my phone number in order to get an access code, my keyboard does not show me number 1. All the numbers are mixed, but all are present instead of 1 and I cannot setup the application and start using it. This bothers me very much now, because it worked perfectly before. I tried to solve it by trying to use the onscreen keyboard, but it seems like I don't have that at all in my phone...... is there anyone who knows how I can solve this?
I also tried reinstalling the app several times, but it is always the same thing... :/
Thanks in advance!

Hi. Try downloading 'Smart Rotator' and force it to portrait orientation. That way you will know if it works.
There are many apps that doesn't support portrait (or landscape) orientation, and with Smart Rotator you can force them. But there is no guarantee of they properly fit the screen.

I got the same issue even thought I tried the latest Viber. Here is my solution: type the code in another place, copy it then paste into the code-entering area --> :laugh: activated!
1-When you get the activating code, write it down on a piece of paper.
2- Open any text typing apps or use the default of HTC: your 'Messages': type the code --> press on the code so that a option box appear, select 'select all', then choose 'copy'. Close the 'Messages'
3- Open your Viber, then press on the code-entering area, the option box appear --> choose paste.
4- The rest is your enjoyment.

Same issue here. Noticed this only happens on ChaCha or physical QWERTY smartphones as the numeric keypads are not placed in the same position for every maker model. (Example: ChaCha numeric keypad is on the left, Galaxy Chat has them slightly to the center) I'm thinking this is what is causing the issue with every similar app. Its not broken, the app works perfectly fine. Press the keys until you find the right numbers for your code and then your phone number.
Used to have Whatsapp... damn, Viber is so much better. Thanks for the great app guys.
Just press the Fn button before you press the number you want to type. For example if you want to type 1234, press Fn 1 Fn 2 Fn 3 Fn 4. It works when you have to type in your phone number and the activation code.
Cheers!
Hi.. My Viber version 3.1.0.1103. It never worked and couldn't be updated. I use link2sd and also tried the native move2sd but still not working and always get "Sorry! The application Viber (process com.viber.voip) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.". My other xperia x10, my win xp sp3 Laptop and desktop PCs are running Viber fine but the chacha is not? I have no access to google play so should I download Viber and install it manually? OR any other suggestion?

What OS is your phone?
If you can't download Viber for Android from Google Play, you may download it at: http://viber.kayako.com/Knowledgebase/Article/View/100/16/cant-download-from-android-market
Thanks "Viber member" for your caring and thanks for the link. My OS is Android 2.3.5 Rom Hexgore's Stock Plus v1.4 which is the stock rom I got it from XDA. It's rooted and few bloatware were taken off due to the small internal memory. That's why we need a powerful app for moving apps to sd like link2sd. Maybe the bug is from link2sd because the system, I guess, thinks that the app is installed on internal memory while link2sd takes over and transfers it to the external memory! But Viber and link2 work together well on my other older & slower phone!!

People keep saying that Viber data transfer is unencrypted which means it's easy to be revealed over the internet!! Is it true??

[Q] Problem with Viber - photo and video on Viber's folder look like damaged

Hi, I've got a Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 device.
I have a problem with Viber.
The video files and photo files that I received with viber from my friends look like broken, I don't know wath's happened?
If I see the conversations I can see the photos, but if I go to search on the viber's folder I can't see those and I can't open the photos files. Also if I search on the viber's photo folder from my computer when I connect the phone I can't open the photos or videos.
I send you a pictures of wath my phone show when I open the viber's folder.
You can help me to solve this problem?
Thanks

I did it few days ago, and this is what they answered to me:
""Dear Viber user,

In the last few days we did few maintenance tasks at our backend that should improve our service and might resolve the issue you reported.

I ran into the same issue. In the first run, I succeeded in deleting the photos in gallery and/or in file manager. Few days later "broken" photos showed up again. Finally 20000 additional photos/24 hours. I deinstalled viber. However Androit does not let me delete that huge amount of files all at once. Photo by photo works but will keep me buys for years,. Androit file transfer on Mac does not handle the viber folder with that amount of files.
Any Idee how to contact Viber to let them remove "broken" photos? At least Viber put them on my device.
Hi all,
This issue should have long been resolved (in previous updates). If it still persists (creation of new broken images), then we would appreciate if you could take a minute and report the details to our support team using this direct link: http://helpme.viber.com/index.php?/Tickets/Submit/RenderForm/1
When you submit the ticket, in the line called: "Through which channel did you submit your initial inquiry", please make sure to choose "Technical Forum".

@cocorino -
We apologize for the many broken photos on your phone's gallery. Unfortunately we can't offer an official solution for this "leftover". You might want to check for third-party applications for doing so.
Again, we're sorry for the inconvenience, and as far as we know - the problem has been taken care of and no new photos are generated now.

Hi there
I don't have a fix but I was able to get rid of the malware by installing a app that deletes vendor apps. Do a scan with avg and it will tell you what apps are malware.
But for the issue with the what's app it's still not working for me.
Where did you buy from ?
I got mine from chinavasion and the are stalling on giving my money back.

phicomm ex780L full tutorial
Two Phicomm ex780L arrived last week to a colleague, and after being out all weekend battling malware coming default (easy thing to remove), we have sought English, Spanish and Russian forums, but nobody had the whatsapp solution... but we have after being struggling with error adding contacts to google account and error whatsapp, we finally have found solutions.
The error of the contacts was somewhat easier to solve, also yesterday, the user "stas30" published a rom which already solved that error, but WhatsApp has given us more war .. but finally is solved!
We have written a tutorial in Spanish and English on our web forum, which you can see at:
androidparatorpes [dot] com/foro/dispositivos/42-buenos-y-potentes-moviles-por-menos-de-150#130
We hope you look easy steps to take, enjoy it as much or more as we look for a solution and at the end you may enjoy 100% of this device as we are doing now!
hello, excuse my English, I'm Italian.
I installed your good rom and followed your guide to getting whatsapp but unfortunately does not work. I created the "DO NOT OPEN" group and a friend of mine sent the message in the group but I have not read the message, then he sent me a message out of the group and whtasapp crashed! I tried several times but nothing. How can I do? it is possible that an application so used is not supported by the phone?

Hi there
I don't have a fix but I was able to get rid of the malware by installing a app that deletes vendor apps. Do a scan with avg and it will tell you what apps are malware.
But for the issue with the what's app it's still not working for me.
Where did you buy from ?
I got mine from chinavasion and the are stalling on giving my money back.
Thanks

Hey there, I was just about to buy this phone from chinavasion, I've returned 2 phones to them so far and they do take a while to sort it out but they've refunded me each time thankfully! Can you explain to me about the malware issue as this is the first I've heard about it in all the reviews and that as in what kind of malware and are they system apps which need to be deleted after being rooted? I hope you dont mind me asking too but howcome you are getting a refund on the phone, did it break or something? Im just trying to weigh up my options before i invest in a relatively expensive bit of tech. I'd really appreciate a quick response as I need to get a phone off chinavasion soon (I have credit on their site because of the last refund),
Thank you

You can follow our tutorial to install a new rom without malware and to be able to run whatsapp without problems.
The tutorial is in the page number 1 of this topic.

Used to flash custom firmware with gapps from stas.
Ok, so recently I've scanned the phone with CM Security, and there were 2 malware threats found.
Used whatsapp workaround from above post. Works, but trying to call crashes the app. Trying to use autocorrect text also crashes the app. Important! Do not setup band to LTE only, otherwise you will not be able to call! 4G is only internet. You still need 3G to make calls!
another phone to avoid.
Excuse me, I would like to know whether this official firmware is multilanguage which includes Vietnamese or not. And would you showing me how to flash it? If By using stock recovery, then do I need to rename it to update.zip or something?!
Thank you
Android 5.0
Hi, Any news about android 5.0 or 6 for this phone? Can somebody transform a rom from another device and probe it in this device? Mi device has the same problems (whatsapp and malwares) but i Install the rom from Stas30 and it works nice. i solve the problem of whatsapp with the unread message. But it still turned off whenever it wanted. I had a oneplus one before that has almost the same characteristics and same processor and it happened too. I think that it is a problem of the processor that gets heated.
But please I think that a newer version of android will work very good with this phone and could solve a lot of bugs
try porting yourself,
No one can port another rom for this phone?
Fix whatsapp problem
FIX WHATSAPP PROBLEM
- What steps should I take?
The problem of forced close for whatsapp appears when we receive a new message, appearing to number of unread messages in the contact that sent us the message, if we are quick enough, once entered whatsapp and in that conversation, it clears the unread message icon and whatsapp works again, but when we receive another message, whatsapp fails again, so we have found this solution:
1. Create a group called "DO NOT OPEN" and invite a friend or family inside.
2. As group picture, we can put the sign "NO ENTRY"
3. We go back, where whatsapp show us active chats.
4. We asked our friend / family to send us a message to the group saying: Do not open or delete this group
5. Now, whatsapp we will give us a "force close".
6. We asked our friend / family to send us a private message to our whatsapp (but not in the group)
7. Open whatsapp, it will fail, but when you close the error no longer give us more "force close" and finally Notifications will work again, because we will always have an unread message (inside the group called "DO NOT OPEN"), and with these simple steps we will be able to use whatsapp without errors.

Can't create new contacts anymore

Hello,
On my Gflex 2, when I want to add a contact by clicking the "+" button at the top right, the dedicated application directly closes. Otherwise, if I do it the same way in the messaging app it also closes directly. Finally, I can not add any contact, but I can still modify them.
I've been done the usual procedure for troubleshooting especially resetting.
Can you help me please ?

I have the same issue. I tryed to reset / hard reset the phone without success.
Meantime to still be able to use my phone, I installed this app from Play store: add.contact
It's really boring... Thanks for the app
I sent a mail to LG Support and they tell me that I've to give my device to repair. However, it's better if your device is still over garantee.
I just got exactly the same problems a few days ago O_O it seems to be some kind of update or whatever that caused this problem, hope it will be resolved fast
