#Viber for iphone 3gs update

I also point out that this four-step doesnвЂ™t actually solve the problem, but allows you a quick recovery whenever it happens, which to me, I hate to say, is a lot. This did not fix the problem on my phone, although I got the volume back until the next message ticked in, but if the above doesnвЂ™t help you may want to give that a go as well. Some suggest uninstalling and installing Viber. I would like to point out that I have never had to go further down the list than number 3, which is good because on my phone a soft reset easily takes more than two minutes, which really cuts into my music listening.

If that still doesnвЂ™t help, perform a soft-reset (hold the Home and Standby buttons until the phone blanks out, then turn it back on).

If still no avail, tap Home to get to the main screen, double-tap Home againg and close Viber.

If not, bring the Viber app to front and repeat the double-tap operation described in step 1.

This should bring the volume back to normal. Then double-tap the Home button again to exit the Multitasking bar.

Double-tap the Home button to bring up the Multitasking bar.

IвЂ™ve also heard of the same problem occurring on iPhone 4 and 4S. Apparently this volume dip affects sounds from all apps, not just the Music (previosly iPod) app. When I use the Viber app for making or receiving calls, or sending or receiving messages, the audio volume on the iPhone dips considerably вЂ“ which is a nuisance if I listen to music.

I use the Viber app on an iPhone 3GS with iOS 5.0. Update: The Viber people have, to my pleasant surprise, responded to this blog entry (see comments below), and they say that the problem will be ironed out in the next update. If you still have problems, it might be wise to address the Viber team directly. If you still experience the problem, make sure you have the latest available version of Viber.

Update 2, 1: I havenвЂ™t followed up on this one in a long time (out of sight is out of mind and all that), but I ought perhaps mention that the Viber and music volume issue as per today is solved, at least on my iPhone 3GS.
