Alright folks I am at a loss.

I was able to add a few friends before x-mas, but now for the sake of it, I just can't remember in what form I have to look for a phone number.
do I have to search
country code + number
is it country code with leading 00
or is it just number with the beginning 0 for the provider?

It would be really helpful to have this noted down somewhere, especially if you need to add numbers from different countries.

Cheers

its countrycode without + or 00 and the actual number without leading 0. After the search you will find the contact offline at the buttom of your cList.

Ok, for some bizarre reason, it works with the number of a pal. But the other number - though a different provider - does not work.

*sigh* technology my enemy since I became an engineer

Alright, we finally figured it out.
Apparently there is a WhatsApp option to show you offline constantly, still getting all messages and so, as long as this option is ticked, Miranda Plug-in won't show the number in the contact list.

thanks for the help.

Strange behaviour: a group I'm in gets its messages into History+, but another group doesn't. What could it be?

Will this help you guys?

Guess not. Reading their web post: https://blog.whatsapp.com/614/WhatsApp-Web
gives me the conclusion that it won't "help" at all.. simply because the phone must stay online... So it's not really independent from the phone.

Sure, some people might still like it, or say it's at least something, but requiring the phone to be connected and also not even working on phones with iOS is quite bad. Dunno what they are trying to do^^

[falloutboy84]

indeed especially for me, that does not even have a smartphone, but still "has to use" WhatsApp.
Funny thing is, my phone could not even scan that darn QR-code

But alright, for me the Miranda Plugin works fine, even with the little hickup that everyone is shown offline. Which is NO dealbreaker for me.

Thank you very much for this plugin

Yestarday it was worked, but today, when i did want to connect, it just couldn't. I did try on bluestacks, thinking something wrong with my account, and it was sucessfull, but on miranda it always writes that registering fails. Something wrong with wart? If it just input window for code was available from the start, maybe it was possible to ask code from bluestacks or yowave and then input it in miranda. So what to do now?

[falloutboy84]

Yeah the WhatsApp policy seems to be very strange. Just thinking of all the bans of people that used WhatsApp+ on their cellphones.

But yes, I can't login either today.

[Dimsok]

They've just signed out all users i think, I has other account logined in in bluestacks, and when i did launch it, it was not active too. Wassap, app for windows, which i did try can't register too. I think the same for pidgin. So no way to use whatsup on pc? I don't want to use emuls like bluestacks and youwave cause my pc and netbook are week, and became too slow when i run them. The problem is in WART i guess. If it was just possible to ask code from some android emulator and input it in miranda

[Chungalin]

Same here.

Code: [Select]

[11:10:16 0A1C] [WhatsApp_1] Exception: Login failure
[11:10:16 0A1C] [WhatsApp_1] (00B26ED8:748) Connection closed internal
[11:10:16 0A1C] [WhatsApp_1] (00B26ED8:4294967295) Connection closed
[11:10:16 0A1C] [WhatsApp_1] Set status to offline

This is not the end.

Hey guys!

Today is my first time with miranda and wa plugin, is all uptodate the program x64 + whatsapp plugin.

But i cant use that! Always get "registration failed" with setting up my number.

Thanks for any help.

[Cassio]

Login is broken here too.
Looks like the challenge/response auth mechanism causes this -> responds with "failure".

I'm guessing that the old "WAUTH-1" is no longer supported. I've seen other implementations using "WAUTH-2" and they continue to work.

Please fix this quickly! :-)
