mgervase — Tue, 26 Mar 2019 03:46:27 GMT

Today marks the release of our first app under the Jabber brand - Cisco Jabber for Android.

Available for download in the Android Market, Cisco Jabber for Androidlets you place, receive, and manage calls over a Wi-Fi network using your Android device. Your Android becomes your IP phone, while also providing corporate directory lookup and enterprise telephony calling features.

You can run Cisco Jabber for Android in the background to receive calls but not interfere with other applications on your device. With Cisco Jabber for Android, you can also:

Use your business phone number for outgoing and incoming calls, masking your personal phone number

Move calls from a Wi-Fi to a cellular network, keeping calls live without disconnecting

Move calls to your Cisco Unified IP Phone and back, so you can roam while continuing calls

Cisco Jabber for Android features utilize the native Android interface, making them easy to use:

Add, conference, and swap calls with multiple callers using simple soft-key commands

Be alerted to and listen to your office voice messages with a single click

Access your company directory while you are on the go

Cisco Jabber for Android works with your Cisco Unified Communications Manager and Cisco Unity Connection to deliver these UC services directly to your Android device.

Mark - when will the Android device COP file be available for download? I work for a partner and am trying to go through our Cisco account team to obtain the file but it seems to be taking some time.

I don't understand why Cisco releases all this documentation and information about a product months before the product is even released. Then they make it hard to even obtain the product; very frustrating.

Thanks,

Dan

Hi Dan,

For a variety of reasons the Jabber for Android app is on new product hold. Threre is a process to go through to get the COP file, documented here: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/voicesw/ps6789/ps7290/ps11596/product_bulletin_c25-661348.html

Some of the steps require partner access to cisco.com, so if you are still having trouble getting help from your account team or Cisco channel partner, direct message me via this community and I'll keep things moving for you.

Sorry that your experiencing frustration with our process as this is not our intent. Let me know how I can help.

Thanks,

Mark

Mark,

Are there immediate plans to add instant messaging capabilities to the Jabber for Android client? If so, is there any way to track progress on this, or do you have any other information?

Thanks,

Jason

Hi Jason, for a variety of reasons we are constrained as to what we can say about future product enhancements and our roadmap in general in a public forum. However, I can tell you that the Jabber IM for BlackBerry app is going to be available within a few weeks http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps11763/index.html and Cisco Mobile for Nokia already has IM included in the app http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps11766/index.html. This is an example of how we are enabling Cisco IM and Presence on mobile devices. Knowing that we also offer mobile apps on iPhone and Android, its reasonable to assume there will be Cisco IM and Presence coming to those platforms in the future. I know that's not the most direct answer to your question, but hopefully it helps.

Hi, Jabber for Android is already available via Android Market. But what you need is Dual Phone Device Type for Android for your CUCM. I believe in later releases (maybe 8.5 has it) as a standard Device type. If you have older version, you need to install a .cop file which can be obtained thru your local Cisco UC SE team.

Hi,

I urgently need either the cop file or CUCM 8.6, but none of them can be downloaded using partner CCO. Can someone provide me, at least the cop file please ? I am now using CUCM 8.0.3. Thanks in advance.

Hi Mark,

Is vpn installation a must in my samsung galaxy mini in order to use the Cisco Jabber?

Thanks & regards,

How,

A VPN is not required to use Jabber on the corporate network, but once you are off the corporate network and roaming using public hotspots or at home, you will need a way to securely connect back to the core UC services that are behind the firewall (call control, voicemail, directory). Cisco offers an AnyConnect mobile app for Android that can provide that secure connection through a Cisco ASA firewall/VPN headend.

But stay tuned as we expect to add a secure connection feature to the Jabber for Android client so that you do not need a separate vpn on your device.

Hi Mark,

Currently I'm installing the cop file into my cucm8.5, I found that the Installation Guide doesn't help much, I have no idea on how to fill up the form below:

Any idea?

HowYee,

I'm not the technical expert so I can't be certain that I have all the answers for you. There should be an admin guide for each version of UCM that offers guidance. The best I can find is here:
