This way you'll be able to see all your friends who use Viber and be able to start communicating with them. Especially since it is so easy for a developer/ technical person from a multi million dollar company to spot and solve.At that time, Viber imports your Viber contact list and integrates them into the application.

I have to point that Viber support after passing them a slum dunk with the post from this forum and my minimum width setting did not even bother to look for an answer!! They sent me as a reply the summary of this post with the 'recommendation' to find View and Small Screen setting on Android !! I hope that my recommendation to include a warning to their knowledge base (which kept sending me as a fix to this problem !!) would resolve future issues. For a 10.1'' you can set it to 800 dp.Īfter restart the installation as secondary device proceeds as normal. On Android 10 you have to dig deep to find this by activating Developer Options menu (Settings/About tablet/Software Information/7 taps on Build Label) and under Drawing label find the Minimum width setting. Here's how other smallest width values correspond to typical screen sizesģ20dp: a typical phone screen (240x320 ldpi, 320x480 mdpi, 480x800 hdpi, etc).Ĥ80dp: a large phone screen ~5' (480x800 mdpi).ħ20dp: a 10” tablet (720x1280 mdpi, 800x1280 mdpi, etc).įor some reason my tablet had as factory default setting minimum width 533 dp! In an Android developers site I found the following dp info: What is important is to differentiate screen resolution to one that can be identified as 'tablet'. Having the same issue with Samsung Galaxy TAB A 2019 and witnessing the crap support from Viber, I would like to point that the issue is indeed caused by the Viber device identification from screen resolution as Robert suggested.

Is there a workaround to force Viber to 'treat' this device as a secondary device? I want to activate my new Lenovo Tablet as a secondary device. In case I continue with the SMS/phone activation, my primary device (phone) gets disconnected. On the new Lenovo tablet, the 'activation screen' which is displayed just after I enter my mobile phone number, shows that an SMS or phone call activation will be attempted just like the tablet were a primary device only (which it should not).

On the old Samsung tablet, the 'activation screen' which is displayed just after I enter my mobile phone number, shows the relevant QR code to be scanned by my primary device (phone). So, Viber tries to activate this tablet as a primary device only.

However, it seems that this new tablet is treated like a mobile phone by Viber (although it is a WiFi only device). I tried to activate Viber on this tablet as a secondary device which is the way I had used Viber for years: mobile phone is always my primary device tablet and PCs are my secondary devices.

Lately, my old Samsung tablet started to fail, so I bought a new tablet ( Lenovo TB-8505F 8' Wifi only).

I have been using Viber for almost ten years on many devices (including Blackberries, Android phones and tablets, Windows and Linux PCs).
