WhatsApp protocol

Cool plugin, but it doesn't work 
I cannot request code - popup emerged with "Registration failed" and nothing else...
I even cannot enter code that have been obtained to the phone a long ago - fields that are created for code - inactive.

Most likely it would not register too.

some news about remove or hiding myself from the contactlist?

it would be nice if whatsapp plugin automatic downloading files from whatsapp servers (https://mmi*.whatsapp.net/*) and save it into our Received files folder, maybe with file transfer window

Same here, it gives you some kind of 403 error.
But I can run Whatsapp through Pidgin using WART flawlessly (obviously it's not opened when trying to register Miranda-NG)
So...any way to use the wart password?

[watcher]

thisisfc, network log? for me it works - what you want me to say? provide network log. We use the same API tht WART uses. To see what could be wrong we need network log.

[lokapal]

lokapal, please provide network log.

The reason is the same as in "pure" WART 1.7.1.0: "old_version"

I guess that their server DO expect more fresh version of their software to work with.

We work with the same API as "pure" WART. Pidgin works with something else?

[watcher]

So...any way to use the wart password?

In database editor go to WhatsApp account branch, look for a key named Password, if one does not exist - create one (Unicode string) and as a value enter password that you have.

Pidgin cannot find out password/activation codes. It relies upon WART. WART doesn't work right now.
I've tried to install pidgin and whatsapp plugin http://topblog.hubpages.com/hub/How-to-Install-WhatsApp-for-PC
Pidgin and whatsapp plugin cannot figure out password/activation codes at all, they mean to use WART.

To ALL - try tomorrow's nightly, registration should start working again.

[Chungalin]

Any update about Unicode nick?

[watcher]

Chungalin, open a ticket on bug tracker.

Festivities and jubilation! Works like charm! 
Nevertheless it would be cool to reveal the password somehow to transfer account to the other computer(s). I mean that it would be good to obtain more convenient way than editing database manually in dbeditorpp.

Hi,

I started using WhatsApp with Miranda NG before I owned a smartphone only using SMS-code-submission and your plugin.
I've wondered whether you know how I can enter the data I used to access WhatsApp via Miranda into my new smartphone's WhatsApp installation so that I can switch between my handy's and my pc's install without having to request a new password what would disable the old one.

I think as a WhatsApp-PlugIn-Developer you have messed around alot with WhatsApp and if anyone knows how it works - it's you.

To clearify what I want: I'm searching for a way to enter the gained password (the long alphanumeric password, not the 6-digit-code you got per sms), maybe the identity and the phone number in a new clean android whatsapp installation without having to request a new password or code.

[White-Tiger]

though I'm not the dev, to my knowledge there was no way to achieve that...
Most methods to have a smartphone and 3rd party WhatsApp to co-exist "simply" used to use some kind of proxy... so that you'll catch the password WhatsApp requests and reuse that on the 3rd party App...

So I'm not sure if someone figured it out how to read/write to WhatsApp now.. (at least not public)
But I wish you good luck

P.S. just to clarify it, my "knowledge" is about a year old, so there are hopefully better ways by now...
