Please fix the Viber issue with .205

Iranian_Amir — Sun, 15 Jun 2014 14:29:15 GMT

Hey guys,

I'm still stuck with the old 4.1.2 firmware and I didn't want to update it to 12.1.A.1.205 cuz many folks have reported that VoIP apps such as "Viber" do not work on the new firmware (Viber is one of the most popular apps in Iran and over 90% of Android users have it on their phones alongside with WhatsApp and Tango, hence people use these softwares regularly) now what I hear about the older updates such as 201 is that they are full of bugs and issues. So I'm not sure if sony developers want to come up with a patch for solving the Viber issue or not, it's sad that we have to refrain from updating the firmware just because of the Viber issue in 205 firmware. I understand that Sony developers worked pretty hard in order to resolve the problems that existed in older firmwares but I request them to solve the issue with Viber ASAP.

Best Regards,

Amir from Iran

I am on 4.1.2 too, and I want to update to .205, but I heard that viber isn't working in .205, so I can't update it, because I cant stand without viber...

How come other devices running on android 4.3 don't have this same issue? It's a tiny firmware glitch bro!

i think not..because sony has tweaked the software a bit...like my previous phone i have to contact the dev to solve this prob and it worked..

p.s Looks like i'm not the only one from Isfahan 😛

Anyways, I've contacted Viber a few minutes ago and told them about the issue. I'm waiting for their response and I'll share it here when they send it. A technical explanation would be nice though.
