The authorities in the UAE have decided to block Viber in the whole country, and that is why you are experiencing this issue. Unfortunately there is not much we can do to help
Try contacting the authorities and ask for the reason for this block.

It does sound indeed like your firewall or router are blocking Viber's ports.
You'll need to contact your router/firewall manufacturer, or simply Google it and find a link that can help you with this issue

Please try removing Viber, wait 24 hours, reinstall and try again (make sure you try both the SMS and the automated call options). If this doesn't help, contact our support team at http://support.viber.com and give them the details of the problem.

Hi,

Please explain what you mean by "i've tried to call her using voip and direct call but the same thing happened". You mean that a regular call posed the same problems?

It could be that the network you are connected to is blocking Viber's traffic.

1. First, please try uninstalling and reinstalling Viber when connected to different a few WiFi networks. Does it work now?
2. Also, please make sure the following ports are enabled on your routers or firewalls:
TCP: 5242 + 4244
UDP: 5243 + 9785

(if you are not sure how to enable ports, contact your router manufacturer)

call logs

Hi. Ive been using viber for some time now. And im happy with it. Except for the call logs cause it also shows the call i make receive with my network provider so its kinda confusing to distinguish if it was a viber call or not. But a couple of days ago i've received an important phone call and i need it to reflect on my call logs. It was a viber call i received from my brother. When i checked a day after all i see are his missed calls to me. I was using wifi connectionat home when i got the call. Im from Phils. Globe network. HTC Sensarion phone. Help.

This problem could have a few different possible reasons.

It could be that the network you are (or the other side in the Philippines) connected to is blocking Viber's traffic.

2. Also, please make sure the following ports are enabled on your routers or firewalls:
TCP: 5242 + 4244
UDP: 5243 + 9785

(if you are not sure how to enable ports, contact your router manufacturer)

Also, it could be that your Viber contact list needs to be resynchronized. Here is a quick guide for a few methods to reboot the synchronization: http://bit.ly/rRtPqk

We would appreciate if you could let us know if it worked or not

Unfortunately for now there is still no way to separate Viber calls from regular calls in the Android call log. In the future, we are planning to add the option of separating them. We apologize for any temporary inconvenience caused

Hi all,

I also have problems with Viber on my iphone, but a slightly different problem.

Whenever my iphone is using the WIFI emitted from my iMac, I have problem with Viber calls. I can initiate the call, but it will end within 2 seconds, even if the other side tried to pick it up. Nevertheless, I can pick up calls from some people even if I am using the WIFI from my iMac (not work for everyone)
I don't have problems with Viber if I use the cellular data from phone company.

I wonder if I should change some setting on my iMac, if you know the answer, please explain in layman terms
Thanks a lot

Hi,
Yes, it does indeed sound like the connection through your iMac is the cause to this problem. We would recommend to contact Apple through their support forums and see if they can assist you further on this issue.

Connection Problem

Hello;

I am here in Japan. And I am using pocketWIFI and a prepaid Softbank SIM on an unlock Iphone4s.

Just acquired Viber on my Iphone, their was no problem encountered in downloading and registration, the problem is I cant send any message because it says "my contact does have viber yet" but I am sure that my contact has, in-fact my contact can send me a message tru Viber but when i open it, the window will shut down, along the notification of the received message it says "to see this message upgrade Viber and you'll be able to send and receive free messages as well" I think my Viber is recent (version 2.1.5.270). So what's the problem?Please please help. We just bought our phone just for this reason to be able to contact free.....

Thanking you in advance for any help you can share.

Hi,
The source of this problem may vary.

We recommend that you try both these workarounds:
1. First, deactivate (through the "More" tab), uninstall, then reinstall Viber (from AppStore/Market) and see if it helps.
2. Also, try switching between a few different WiFi connections.

Has either of the above solved the problem?

Sucky connection

So my friend and I have been trying to have a decent conversation with each other using Viber (I'm in California and she's in the Philippines) but everytime I she would call me or I would call her, we'd only hear each other for a few seconds and then it cuts off. I've tried switching between WiFi and 4G (she uses WiFi), but the same thing happens. Help please!

I've tried switching between WiFi and 4G (she uses WiFi), but the same thing happens. Help please!

Sometimes 3G/4G reception could be low, and this is something we cannot control. Naturally this affects Viber's call quality and results in disruptions and broken sound.
We are continuously trying to improve our handling of 3G, so you can expect better performance as newer versions of Viber are released.

Meanwhile, WiFi- WiFi calls on Viber sound generally clear and are free of such disruptions.
If WiFi is also giving you trouble, then it could be that the network you are connected to is blocking Viber's traffic.

1. First, please try uninstalling and reinstalling Viber when connected to a few different WiFi networks. Does it work now?
2. Also, please make sure the following ports are enabled on your routers or firewalls:

Hi,

Viber's calling feature is unfortunately not available yet for Blackberry users. We are working on it these days, and we hope that within the next few months we'll add the calling options to Blackberry as well
