Hi all!

Thank you very much for your support in finding new ways to register a new N900 device to WhatsApp without the need of NITROID.

I followed the great tutorial by davdav but I had some problems.

At first I didn't get this UNKNOWN ERROR but the java port simply freezed.

It could be because the java port freezed, but actually I had to erase this:
/home/user/.java/.userPrefs/org/peterbjornx/whatsapp/prefs.xml

and edit according to the tutorial this copy in the "storage" subfolder instead:
/home/user/.java/.userPrefs/org/peterbjornx/whatsapp/storage/prefs.xml

This simply didn't work for me, since I was getting an UNKNOWN ERROR at this step... which shall not be the case.
Therefore I COULD NOT COMPLETE the verification using the java port...

But here it comes the interesing part:
I simply started yappari 0.18 in desperation without expecting anything more than the usual registration errors... but... IT REGISTERED SUCCESSFULLY

I also received a further SMS with the registration code.

Long story short, I'm now suggesting new users to try the following procedure since I think I didn't really needed the java port during my weird registration

1- install yappari 0.18

2- Download BlueStacks and install official WhatsApp on it

3- Begin the registration procedure but DON'T ENTER the verification code
(at this point I received an SMS on my N900 and when the SMS registration was told unsuccessful on BlueStack I was also able to get the same code via Voice call).

4- connect to the internet with the N900 and open yappari 0.18

5- insert the same phone number you used for the half registration on the official WhatsApp on BlueStacks

6- I was astonished since at this point my registration was successful. I received a further SMS with the same verification code (this time triggered by yappari, I assume) and I was seamlessly logged in! :-o

What do you think about it?
It could be possible that just the half-registration via the official WhatsApp on BlueStack removed some blocks for yappari?
As if the block is actually to start a brand new registration, while the completion of a registration already begun on the official app could be concluded by a third party app?

Please have a look at this and try to replicate the "positively weird" process I came across! ;-)

I'm sorry if I made a mess describing what I did, but I'm available to questions if something is not clear.

Thank you very much to Scorpius for yappari and to RDilus and davdav for the java port tutorials.

Cheers

I am also facing the same problem since today morning with version 0.0.18. It is asking for verification of country code & mobile number. On entering the details, it shows verifying progress bar & then again the screen comes back to previous status, verify your country code & mobile number...

Huh!

Need help to sort this out.

Please check that your Yappari confiration file is okay.
You can do so by issuing the following command in xTerm:

Code:

cat /home/user/.config/scorpius/yappari.conf

You should get something like this:

Code:

[General]
registered=true
number=505XXXXXX
cc=966
phonenumber=966505XXXXXX
status=I am using Yappari!

If you have any of the lines missing or incomplete, then edit the file; "/home/user/.config/scorpius/yappari.conf" and add the missing information. Then try and start yappari again.
