[BUG] sendPresenceUpdate() fails when connecting via QR

[oscarguindzberg]

Describe the bug chat.ts sendPresenceUpdate() fails when connecting via QR https://github.com/WhiskeySockets/Baileys/blob/76d2a9d759c31e4b2346fb2f02ec572f4d4c0437/src/Socket/chats.ts#L544 This is printed on the logs: {"level":40,"time":"2024-06....","pid":37...,"hostname":"myHost","msg":"no name present, ignoring presence update request..."}

The cause is authState.creds.me.name was not set yet by the time sendPresenceUpdate() is executed.

This is a problem when using markOnlineOnConnect: false because: 1) The user is seen as "Online" by other users. 2) Phone notifications are reduced e.g. phone doesn't vibrate on incoming messages.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

• Update example.ts to use markOnlineOnConnect: false
• Comment out on example.ts these lines:
  • // await sock!.readMessages([msg.key])
  • // await sendMessageWTyping({ text: 'Hello there!' }, msg.key.remoteJid!)
• Run the example and connect a phone with QR code
• This will be printed on the logs: {"level":40,"time":"2024-06....","pid":37...,"hostname":"myHost","msg":"no name present, ignoring presence update request..."}
• The user is seen as "Online" by other users.
• Phone notifications are reduced e.g. phone doesn't vibrate on incoming messages.

Expected behavior

• No error 40 on the logs
• The user is NOT seen as "Online" by other users.
• Phone notifications aren't affected, e.g. phone DOES vibrate on incoming messages.

Environment (please complete the following information):

• Is this on a server?: no
• What do your connectOptions look like? : The ones in the example plus markOnlineOnConnect: false
• Do you have multiple clients on the same IP?: no
• Are you using a proxy? : no

Additional context Add any other context about the problem here.
