Android Users; Google Can Add Ur Facebook Frnds To Ur Whatsapps by Joe50(m): 10:12pm On Mar 30, 2013
This is for those who don't know that google can add your facebook , yahoo n gmail friends to your whatsapp even though they are not in your phone contact.

All you need is to login to your google, facebook, yahoo account on your android phone, allow android to sync your account, after syncing open your whatsapp and you will see your facebook friend that are on whatsapp, including your email friends on whatsapp.

Great Android, great innovation!!!

Kindly explain the sync part in details...possibly with screen shots. Dont think i've come across that capability for whatsapp...only refresh.

Sorry my phone is not rooted so i can't take screenshot.

After you sign in to all your account, go to settings, account & sync; mark auto-sync and press sync all.
Wait until sync finished, then unmark auto-sync to save your battery, now open your whatsapp and see.

My S Duos takes screenshots by defualt. Most phones now do. you should google your model.

Synching on my phone settings only updates your whatsapp friend list with your phonebook contacts that have whatsapp installed. no synching gmail, yahoo or facebook friends. Oh well i await response from others.
