WhatsApp protocol

after Thug's Version. Until last night 2 o'clock I was online. In the morning I can't go online. I checked after my last post the Status. I'm blocked.

I'm banned. I don't know why. Have somebody an idea?

Sunlight7, thanks, commited. Here are 32/64 binaries - https://www.dropbox.com/s/qxodvndbmp0yh9x/WhatsApp.7z?dl=0

EDIT:

// Uhm... so, is it safe to use?

You mean Thug's fix which is already committed... So in other words, Don't update to the latest version or you'll get banned is a proper assumption here right?

If that's the case - i'm reverting last commit and rebuilding nightly.

vbprofi, If reinstalling manually my dll doesn't help (assuming the reason of connection failure was automatic update), try to register your phone number in the official app - this is the best way to tell for sure.

There were many complaints about possible ban during the thread. I don't really think that my workaround is the case of this problem, because after all the suspicious experiments my account is still working Well, everything is possible. Too bad, we are at 'alpha' state again

Obviously, it doesnt't send the resource. That was the trick to avoid encryption. Who knows how long it will work...

What I meant is that any resource we used so far thats different from S40, gives the error. I noticed it since Cassio's S60 resource build when the S40 builds still worked for some.
That means the server is expecting some other header we dont know. It could very well be unrelated to encryption, like device version or something.
Guess the only way to know is if someone Wireshark or sniff it some other way from official clients in different devices.
But thats obviously low priority compared to encryption.

I downloaded your DLL and put it in the Plugin Folder. for two days that worked very well (thanks for your working). But this morning I try to go online. I don't know, why I banned. I try to Register. Miranda tell me the message 'blocked'. So I try to Register with the Tool "wart.exe". That tell me same. I don't use whatsapp at my Smartphone.

Could not request code using either sms or voice.
SMS:    {"status":"fail","reason":"blocked"}
Voice:  {"status":"fail","reason":"blocked"}

No-no, I have tested it for several evenings, and figured out what does it expext
It expects a string in the following format: "Device-1.11.11-433"

A "device" must be one of the following existing headers: "S40", "Symbian", "Android", "iPhone", "BB", and some header for WindowsPhone which I failed to figure out. All of them are accepted by the server and work with encryption.

1.11.11 - is whatsapp client version. I'm not sure about the format, but too old versions are blocked by the server, making the users to update periodically. You can actually set 9.99.99, and it will work.

The last value is a port number. It is not necessary.

Firstly I have figured out that encryption doesn't work if you send incorrect resource (I set "iOS" as device, it worked, and we used it for several days untill they fixed it and the server started blocking all the incorrect resources). And now it is empty resource. That's it

Miranda tell me the message 'blocked'. So I try to Register with the Tool "wart.exe". That tell me same. I don't use whatsapp at my Smartphone.

Seems like a ban indeed. But all the bans so far were temporary as far as I know. Moreover, there was a discussion in the thread about possible ban for not-paying for the service. That's why I suggest trying official client (just to test and make sure). Personally I'm using WhatsApp in Miranda for more than two years now, never payed for it and still not banned. But it is still a trouble we should expect.

[Kajuru]

Try using Yowsup to register, its very verbose, I suppose it will output the reason.

[Thug]

Well, that's it. I can't go online with empty resource string anymore. Not a ban - with correct resource still can. I still receive not-encrypted messages from those with whom I used to chat recently, but don't know how long will it last. No more thoughts about bypassing axolotl. Thank you, it was fun

They removed the paying for this service recently (I don't know exactly when). So it's fully free now

I had the same ban a couple of month ago. So i sent message to whatsapp support and after about a month of waiting get answer that i was banned cause i spammed. So i was unblock "at this time"

WhatsApp plugin by Thug can't connect now.

I can't login, too. (same log)

Do you connected, again?

btw. Thug, great work (until here) and thank you very much!

[Thug]

I can't login, too. (same log)Do you connected, again?

All my changes were reverted on SVN because those methods don't work anymore So, just update the plugin from server, and you will be able to connect again. You will also continue to receive messages normally from those with who you communicated recently, but I don't know how long this effect lasts.
And thanks. It was actually lame, but I guess we helped whatsapp owners to fix a couple exploits

[CleriC]

Do you connected, again?

Yes. Update official WhatsApp plugin by plugin updater.
