We have a requirement for login with WhatsApp in one of my Android and iOS app, the way we do it with Google and Facebook login. We also need to get the profile data and contact list pertaining to the respective WhatsApp login so can anybody help me on this?
Kind of the point of WhatsApp is that it's intentionally secure. It's not going to allow you to get contact lists. You can use click to chat via their Whatsapp by calling https://api.whatsapp.com/send?phone=15551234567 as per https://faq.whatsapp.com/en/26000030/?category=5245251. Just look up API on https://faq.whatsapp.com for the full list of integrations with Android and iOS.
Used OTPless in one of my previous company. They provide seamless Login via Whatsapp Solution (SSO). It's free and easy to integrate with any platform.
Is there any chance to bypass Fb messenger by getting reminders/event/alarm information being set on a group chat. I am planning to create an algorithm or an app that automatically saves a reminders/event/alarm so that later your phone will alarm even in offline. Thank you in advance.
Well your question is quite broad.
By the way, if you're searching some way to get facebook events, alarms and reminders I suggest you to take a look to their Graph API.
You can see here to get started with the Android SDK.
You can query Facebook for all the information you need through the API, and then do your thing.
Disclaimer: I have no experience with this API, this is why I couldn't get you more help.
I just pointed you what I thought you are needing.
I hope that this is what you're looking for!
I was searching for a way to sync contacts to my application server and I stumbled across SyncAdapter. I'm new to the concept, so here's my question:-
How does WhatsApp/Facebook/Hike applications create account in Settings>Account section of the android device? Is this related to the SyncAdapter? If yes please provide appropriate explanation or some link to the same as to how should I implement this.
Ultimately, I want to sync my contacts to the application server on user registration, and also update the database whenever user adds/updates the contacts on the device. I'm stuck on this for a long time now so any help would be highly appreciated! Thanks
There's an older blog post that demonstrates the account and sync aspects. Even though it is old the content is still relevant to what you need.

https://github.com/c99koder/AndroidSyncProviderDemo
Get the contact sync project from here.This code works fine.
If you want more details refer follow the links,
1.http://udinic.wordpress.com/2013/07/24/write-your-own-android-sync-adapter/
2.http://developer.android.com/training/sync-adapters/creating-sync-adapter.html
If you want to sync periodically, then use background services using Timer.
this is my first project with django and i'm using python social auth to create users with the facebook account's and works fine, now im trying to do the same thing but from android and save information on server, some clue to do this
Check the documentation regarding that at http://psa.matiasaguirre.net/docs/use_cases.html#signup-by-oauth-access-token https://python-social-auth.readthedocs.io/en/latest/use_cases.html#signup-by-oauth-access-token. There you will find a code snippet that will simplify your work, take that snippet as a template where you fill the details related to your project (like the return data, etc).
Edit: updated documentation link.
I need to tweet on twitter some specific message. I need to do that for iphone and andorid using as3. While searching, I got a solution to navigateToUrl (to url 'http://twitter.com/home?status=message') and post, its working but it remains to the account of the user. I searched some apis also but didnt find any useful way to sending a tweet from a as3 flash app. Can any one please help me??
You can do this by using URLRequests to hit the twitter API after logging in with oAuth. There are also a couple of libs available to you for doing this.

You can use ExternalInterface with javascript to send tweets.
