i mean, maybe yappari using dedicated server as "proxy" sorry i don't know what proper name :D

why i asking this? i just worried if some thing happen with this "server" than yappari service will be gone. but another story if yappari direct to wassap server. they owned by giant company so technically nothing to worry :D

Like coderus said, Yappari connects directly to WhatsApp servers. That doesn't mean one day this won't be gone. WhatsApp Inc. works very hard every day to stop third-party clients from using the service, but so far we have prevailed. Now that Facebook bought WhatsApp more clever developers might be involved, changing the protocol completely and making it invulnerable to hacking. Who knows?

my turn to file a 'bug'
my Yappari now does not display incoming emojis. Instead, i just get squares displayed, even though the log seems to indicate I get the proper input. Besides upgrading to the latest Yappari when it was released, I don't remember any other changes on my system.

When I send an emoji, it displays properly.

Please find the log here, https://www.dropbox.com/s/jr5k4kj17krxndl/yappari.log

The user sent me an emoji just before I said "Thanks. Goodnight." The time stamp for their message is Thu Apr 10 22:50:51 2014.

He sent the emoji 0x9f989a which is not defined in Yappari. Looks like WhatsApp have added new emojis, which it's a problem. Aren't they enough already? Geez WhatsApp Inc, stop it!

Adding emojis is a tedious work so don't expect new emojis anytime soon.

sicelo 2014-04-10 21:28

Re: [Announce] Yappari - A WhatsApp Client for the N900 ONLY
 
Thanks for quick response.

I wonder if Whatsapp didn't perhaps 're-map' the emojis.. because last night someone sent me the 'standard' angry emoji, but I still received a square.

I will keep track of the log, and see what turns up.

Thanks lots Scorpius :)

Don't think there are new emojis, have the same "box" problem with an bb user, but is just with that user, others bb users are fine, don't know why.

Happens with older and new version of Yappari same user. Not big deal anyways.

Greetings.

There must be. I don't have the file /usr/share/yappari/icons/48x48/9f-989a.png though I have the 99 and 9b.

Re: [Announce] Yappari - A WhatsApp Client for the N900 ONLY
 
Forwarding text messages (between 2 groups) will cause my client (at least) showing message as it was sent by original sender;

e.g.:

1) User_A wants to forward text message from Group_A to Group_B

2) message showing in Group_A: User_B: msg to forward - timestamp 11/04/2014

3) after forwarding User_A would expect to read in Group_B: User_A: msg to forward - timestamp 17/04/2014

4) after forwarding User_A actually reads in Group_B: User_B: msg to forward - timestamp 11/04/2014

That's not a Yappari's related problem. That's something with your repositories configuration. Are you using official repositories?

Try an apt-get update first.

Yes, I am aware that it's not a yappari related problem.
I think I am using the official repositories, but not sure that I am up to date. Could someone point me to

@macey, it is weird. Just select yes to the Qt Mobility package. I don't remember having that problem when I first installed it.

Re: [Announce] Yappari - A WhatsApp Client for the N900 ONLY
 
Hi to everybody. It's my first time on this forum, but i often read your posts.
I have a problem with Yappari. When i try to do the registration, i have this "SMS Registration Failed - You can try the voice registration method", so i try it...but.." Registration couldn't be completed. Server response was: too_many_all_methods"..

I tried to unistall and reinstall Yappari..
I tried to put my Sim card in an Android device.. but nothing to do! The situation is the same :(

Can anybody of you help me? I know that you can do miracles in this sense...tnx to all ;)

hi Scorpius, is it possible to manually add new emoticons to yappari?
I found icons folder and realized emoticons come in 48x48 and 32x32 folders.
Adding files into this folder (using correct resolution, filename and png format) will work?
thanks :)

No, of course that won't work heh.

Those are just images to show you so you as a human can have some meaning from them.

But in reality emoticons are more than that. They are actually Unicode characters and have to be defined as valid emoticons in the code. Even if you define a new one in the code, nobody else will see your emoticon, since it's invalid for the rest of the universe.

Hi Scorpious,
I have been using the app for a few months and really enjoy it. However, just like that, it asked me for registration. I put in the correct number and cc and then i get after 4 seconds or so "SMS Registration Failed" "You can try the voice ..."
I tried the voice but I get a message saying Registration could not be completed. Server response was:bap_param.

HttpRequest(): All headers read. Available: 56
Reply: {"status":"fail","reason":"bad_param","param":"num ber"}

I have the log file if you want it, but its 14MB. i dont think i can attach it so i'll give you a portion of it. Please let me know if that would be okay.

You're typing the number wrong. Are you 100% sure you know what's the international format of your local number?

Some people have never ever called their home countries from another country so they don't really know how to type their number in international format.

Thanks for the quick response

1 - Country Code for Trinidad
868 - area code
local phone number - 7 digits

In CC I enter +1
In phone number I enter 868<my_number>

It accepts and then I get the error message ...

Looks like WhatsApp Inc. blocked/banned you. Usually those bans are final.

A lot of people is getting banned lately. I wonder what they do to get banned.

EDIT: Were you using the same phone number in two different devices?

Really ... that's not good at all. I now start to use this thing and I get ban. Is it really final? I really hope not. I did nothing. It just stopped working. Yesterday I noticed my messages are not being read but I didn't really consider that it maybe because I was banned. wow.

I wonder if you really know what QML is? It's just another programming language, it's just that QML is modeling oriented.

The result would be the same: the interface *I* want. If you want something different, well then just do it. The source code of Yappari is there, you can grab it, modify it, fork it and make your own WhatsApp client, etc.

What *I* want for Yappari is to look as Maemo as it can be. To be an identical copy of the Conversations application.

Oh, have you decided to opensource it then?

I wonder if anyone will use the source to make clients for other platforms. I just updated my Nokia 520 to the latest WinPhone version and the official Whatsapp client runs badly on it to say the least. I'd also love to see a WinMobile version that could run on older smartphones... it'd make them far more useful.

Ah, how I wish I could code decently.

Remember that Windows Phone (the OS) doesn't have permanent sockets. That means WhatsApp has to disconnect and reconnect every time it closes and opens again. WhatsApp has to register with Microsoft to get push-events to get alerts of new messages...

Long story short: No matter what you do in Windows Phone, it will be a crappy client.

... but the battery in a Windows Phone lasts several days because of that ;)

1.- That's the way it is. Explained several times in this thread.
2.- If you change your status, others will have to wait for their phones to synchronize (once every day) or they have to click on "refresh status" in their phones. That's the way WhatsApp works.

About the requests:

1.- Maybe
2.- Are you clicking on the photo icon? You should, then use the volume buttons in your phone to zoom in/out in the image viewer.
3.- No.
4.- No.
