Can't register on nightly

[Hywan]

Hello :-),

New update of Firefox OS nightly (3.0) today. Opening OpenApp. I am prompted to register this phone (why? it was working yesterday ;-)) and when I enter my phone number waiting for the SMS, I have the following error:

Old version, please contact OpenWapp devs.

Here I am :-).

[airon90]

This error happens to me, too!

[Insurrectionist]

Something similar happened to me but on 1.3. It was working then around an hour later it prompted to register my phone.

[holztest08]

The same problem. I think WhatsApp changed something with the client requirements...

[eduardoandre]

This error happens to me, too! I need of the old version please!

[eduardoandre]

I am brazilian, I don't speak english. But I need of the old version, please. Because my app this not working.

Thank you very very much

Can confirm on three phones. Yesterday it was working today, not anymore. Me on 2.2 and on 2.0 same effect. Maybe "they" changed something.

[ChrAck]

Yes, same behaviour in Germany/Congstar: Old version message and non working client; seems to be a general change in authentication... :-/ ALCATEL_6015X FFOS_2.0.0.0 and OW_1.7.4

[alex-mayorga]

Just another "me too" on Flame 2.2...

If only my contacts would ditch WhatsApp and evolve into Telegram =(

[willyaranda]

I had a PR on CoSeMe (the underlying library to connect to WA) by @titannano

https://github.com/mozillahispano/coseme/pull/15

Merged. I will create a new zip and upload to the store ASAP.

[willyaranda]

I have generated a new version with just this change,

could someone test? I don't have any FirefoxOS phone until Monday.

Thanks!!

[Shadow1g]

tested --> 1.7.5.0 doesnt work

problem not solved

i use firefox 2.0 on a alcatel one touch fire e

[Insurrectionist]

Tested it too, not solved on Firefox OS 1.3, ZTE Open II.

[nebocamin]

works for me, using 2.2 on a flame

[holztest08]

Still the same error. Loqui also have the same problem...yowsup works.

[airon90]

@willyaranda I tested it on my Flame under Firefox OS 3.0 (latest update: 30th April) but the problem still occurs

[ChrAck]

Works fine for me too: 2.0 on Alcatel 6015x

[TitanNano]

hello, everyone here is talking of the device registration not the authentication of an already set up account?

@willyaranda on Loqui we got a report from a failed code request where whatsapp respondes with "bad_token". The token is assembled by CoSeMe from the phone number and a static string like this var plain = 'PdA2DJyKoUrwLw1Bg6EIhzh502dF9noR9uFCllGk1418865329241' + phone; maybe we need to update this static string? If so how can we get the new version?

[aesedepece]

The new string should be PdA2DJyKoUrwLw1Bg6EIhzh502dF9noR9uFCllGk1425519315543{phone}.

[TitanNano]

@aesedepece I see I'll create a pull request for CoSeMe and Loqui. How do you get the string?

[aesedepece]

It needs to be extracted from official app's package. That one came from WhatsApp 2.12.68 for S40.

[TitanNano]

I see, thank you for providing it +1. I patched Loqui so we need to wait for people to test if it's possible to register again. If so I'll do a PR for CoSeMe too.

[tchetch]

I had the same problem and changing the string did correct it ... I could register.

[TitanNano]

@tchetch alright. thanks for the test :) I'll do a PR for CoSeMe.

[feklee]

Downloaded the zip from my device, unzipped it, changed the code to PdA2DJyKoUrwLw1Bg6EIhzh502dF9noR9uFCllGk1425519315543, zipped again, and copied it to my device. Last steps:

$ zip -r ../application.zip *
$ cd ..
$ sudo adb push application.zip /data/local/webapps/{ce5ca96f-8384-488f-b100-ec1c6b780da7}

Then I restarted my Keon (1.3), and still I am requested to enter my PIN, which I do not get by SMS. Coincidentally, the problem exists since yesterday. Still, I guess it's unrelated to what has been reported here. I do not get the "Old version, please contact OpenWapp devs." error message.

[tchetch]

I used the zip from @willyaranda on FirefoxOS 1.3.0.0 on a ZTE Open C

[Shadow1g]

"PdA2DJyKoUrwLw1Bg6EIhzh502dF9noR9uFCllGk1425519315543" works fine!

(with the zip from willyaranda)

[feklee]

@tchetch Cool, the zip by @willyaranda works. I see that there are a couple of other strings / version numbers updated.

[Andreas-Berger]

Hi! Just wanted to let you know workaround (unzip / change string / zip) described by feklee works for me too. Using Firefox 2.0 on geeksphone revolution - Thanks!!! btw: Is there a way to find out which /data/local/webapps/{random-string} - folder is related to a specific application?

[feklee]

Possibly I didn't have the latest version installed.

@Andreas-Berger The string is in webapps.json, as described in the wiki page on migration.

[Hywan]

The recent update did not fix it :-( (on nightly).

[willyaranda]

I just pushed a new version to the marketplace (1.7.6). Waiting to be approved.

[Shadow1g]

sure? there is still the 1.7.5 online

[Hywan]

@willyaranda Perfect. Let's wait and see :-).

[willyaranda]

Approved. Please update and report :) Thanks!

[pmquste]

Preciso de ajuda!! Meu openwapp não está funcionando desde a semana passada. Eu o utiizava para trabalho e atender meus clientes. Tento registrar meu telefone mas dá a seguinte mensagem "Indefinido". O que devo fazer...Lí as instruçoes de vocês nesse forum mas não consigo entender o que significa e onde colocar todos esses códigos....

[pmquste]

i need help! Cant install the openwapp on my firefox since last week. Is says "Indefined". Any help please.

[Insurrectionist]

Working on ZTE Open II - Firefox OS 1.3.

[trompetix]

thank you willyaranda! I just reinstalled your new verision: great job! Works for me on Alcatel OneTounch Fire E with FFOS 2.0.0 01009B

[willyaranda]

Great! Huge thanks to @aesedepece and @TitanNano

[khepriduat]

Solved! Now working on ZTE Open with 2.0. Thanks!

[Hywan]

Solved on nightly. Great job :-).

[Shadow1g]

The problem isn solved, it works only for some hours, after this you lose the connection to the WA-network. All you can do after that is to reinstall openwapp. thats no permanent solution...

[Hywan]

@Shadow1g Hmm, I can't reproduce your issue. What is your version of Firefox OS (because some of them have troubles with the socket API).

[Shadow1g]

Firefox OS 2.0 // Alcatel One Touch Fire E

[airon90]

Again I was disconnected to Whatsapp and when I tried to ask a code for my phone number OpenWapp warned me that the version is obsolete but there isn't any new version of OpenWapp. :(

[Timmaks]

This is a closed issue so please open a new issue (it is new because it is a result of a chnage in whatsapp) like the somebody did in issue #144 .

[Hywan]

@Airon90 Same here…
