can't login issue with foreign numbers

[mats636]

Now just nothing happens after i enter my phone number

[s-alad]

seems to work if you spam the submit button, haven't had any time to look into things, but will take a look over the weekend

[mats636]

Sorry for annoying you but i tried to spam for a while and it didnt work Im from germany and tried it in safari

[NOctu1412]

@mats636 Can you send a log of your network requests please (if possible) ?

[mats636]

Sorry but whats that?

[NOctu1412]

@mats636 Oh wait, forgot what I said, how many times did you sent an otp to your phone today ? You maybe got rate limited.

[mats636]

Bro im sorry Whats otp can you explain it?

[NOctu1412]

Okok, no problem. An otp is the verification code to your phone, but I just tested something and I think that maybe something is broken in the toofake.lol website itself because I can't login there too. But the fact is that when I try to login in a local project (when I run the code on my computer) or in the preview environment, it works.

You can access the preview environment by this link: https://toofake-hv74f4zs3-saladin.vercel.app/fr or via this if you don't trust the link:

[mats636]

On the bottom of my screen a Message which says log in to interact appears do i have to to do that?

[NOctu1412]

@mats636 no you don't have, that's some developer stuff, you just need to use toofake like usual.

[mats636]

Okay then i dont know whats the Problem because it still doesnt work but thank you for your time and help

[NOctu1412]

@mats636 Mmmh that's a very strange issue. Just a quick question, before all of that, when you were putting your phone number and click the "send" button. Was there an error saying "retrying with firebase" and then it worked, or was it sending you the code directly ?

[mats636]

I cant really remember but i think that a message appeared

[NOctu1412]

@mats636 mmh ok so yeah I really don't know, I think we'll have to wait till salad investigate the issue because he is the one to have access to the toofake.lol website I think. I'm gonna do a pull request that will generate a preview version, that "maybe" fix the issue but I'm really not sure about it. You can try it if you want.

[mats636]

Yes i will try im Open for every tip to fix the issue

[mats636]

Just tell me what to do

[NOctu1412]

If you have a computer I'll recommend you to run the project locally, it works fine for me.

[NOctu1412]

I made a pull request, https://github.com/s-alad/toofake/pull/119 this """may""" fix the issue but I'm really not sure about it, I'll give you the link to the preview environment when it's ready.

[NOctu1412]

[NOctu1412]

If it doesn't work, then it's a problem that I cannot fix by myself :/

[mats636]

ERROR: "\r\n\r\n\r\n

400 Bad Request

\r\n

---

nginx\r\n\r\n\r\n" Failed with Vonage login provider, re-trying to login with Vonage... Now this error code appears do you have any idea why?

[NOctu1412]

Yeah because I haven't tested the thing because I don't have the error myself, I'm gonna try to fix the code

[mats636]

okay thanks

[NOctu1412]

Np I'll tell you when it's ready.

[mats636]

can you estimate how long it will taje you to fix the code?

[NOctu1412]

I really don't know, maybe I will not even manage to do it. But I'll try 👍

[mats636]

Okay np take your time

[NOctu1412]

The worst part about all of that is that I doesn't have the error myself so it's very hard to investigate.

[mats636]

If i can possibly help you by giving you Information just ask ill See what i can do

[NOctu1412]

@mats636 Yeah so I don't really know, for some reason when I test toofake under a vercel environment (toofake.lol or the preview environments), it toofake doesn't seem to work. But whenever I test by running the project on my computer i works immediatly. My guess would be that vercel is getting rate limited from sending requests from BeReal but I have no proof to advance. So my only recommendation to you would be to run toofake locally, sorry :/

[mats636]

Firstly thanks for your help and Effort but what does it exactly mean to run it locally

[NOctu1412]

You can follow these steps to run the project locally: https://github.com/s-alad/toofake?tab=readme-ov-file#how-to-run-locally. You can only do it on a computer as far as I know (Windows, MacOs, Linux, ...).

For that you need to download npm from https://nodejs.org/en/download/prebuilt-installer. Git is not required, you can just download the project files from github using:

Then you unzip the project, open a command prompt in the folder you unzipped toofake. Then you can just follow the steps.

[mats636]

Okay ill try

[mats636]

i dont think that im able to do that but still thanks maybe it will work in a few days

[NOctu1412]

Yeah I understand, I hope we will be able to fix that, thanks for your patience.

[mats636]

how do i unzip the project?

[NOctu1412]

@mats636 Just made a quick tutorial: https://youtu.be/72vQnmqDmhk

Here are all the links: https://github.com/s-alad/toofake/tree/main https://nodejs.org/en/download/prebuilt-installer https://learn.microsoft.com/fr-fr/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170

[riicardo1]

I actually have the same problem. For about a week now, I've been unable to log in to toofake or get an OTP and get the following error after clicking on "Send" with my number: ERROR: {"statusCode":400, "errorKey":null, "data":null, "fields":null, "timestamp": "2024-06-21T22:19:10.767Z", "requestId": "cd6016ad562f9baff50cee204accc662"} Since today nothing happens on toofake.lol when I click on "Send", not even an error.

I have now run the project locally and there I get an error again, but as in the days before I get no OTP. By the way, I am also using a German number.

[mats636]

Great tutorial but still doesnt work now nothing happens again maybe its because of the german number

[NOctu1412]

@Riiicardo Yeah I do think that this is because of that.

[mats636]

because of what?

[NOctu1412]

German numbers

[mats636]

but it makes no sense that it doesnt work for german numbers

[NOctu1412]

I think that BeReal is using another sms provider for german numbers (vonage), but the fact that makes no sense is that I also have this bug on the toofake.lol website times to times, while I don't have a german number.

[mats636]

do you think this problem can be fixed?

[riicardo1]

It should be noted that everything worked until about a week ago

[mats636]

fr

[NOctu1412]

Of course it can, I just need more logs to know what exactly is going on since I can't replicate the issue on my computer :/ @mats636

[NOctu1412]

@Riiicardo yeah basically BeReal made change in the way that the login tokens are refreshed.

[mats636]

okay but still thanks for your help and effort there are not many people who put in this kind of effort and time to help a random person they dont know i reallly appreciate that

[NOctu1412]

@mats636 Thanks 👍
