yes I think that there is something like that but I didn't know the limit this update was done yesterday I am in a trouble now !!!

[CODeRUS]

i think limits for free accounts. try to register paid account with WhatsApp and test it

[amiyon-solutions]

My account got blocked just after 3rd message response: {"status":"fail","reason":"blocked"} any luck?

[kingk110]

did anyone tried it with a registered account ??

[kingk110]

@CODeRUS can I pay and register a blocked number?? I never even tried to register a regular account before being blocked

[CODeRUS]

i have no idea. first try on official WhatsApp application and then contact WhatsApp service

[Currito]

I've got the same problem. Each new account I create whit yowsup can send exactly and only 20 messages. Then it's blocked.....

[kingk110]

are these accounts registered for the first time ever using yowsup or they were used as normal watsapp application and registered using yowsup?? can you try a registered account?

[Currito]

No, all of them were registered for the first time using yowsup. Do you mean I can try whith an account previously registered with the whatsapp application?

[Akuka]

Hello, I have the same problem ... If someone thinks he has found a solution I can check it ... I have unlimited usim cards with different numbers So let me know

[mofakfree]

Did someone try That will activate a new number by Android emulator , for example... And the send message through an emulator?? Then we can know if there is a mistake in the code? [ register part ] Or is it new restrictions whatsapp application ... For all users!!!

thanks for all .

I think the sending frequency is very important, the faster you sent, the less number you will reach the limit. I have a test, sleep for 3 seconds after sending per message, and get disconnected by the server after about 30 messages. sleep for 10 seconds and disconnected when 100 messages, sleep 20 seconds, the limit raise to about 300, maybe less, sorry I have forgotten the number. I also found that if your sending connection disconnected by the server for the first time, your account will not be blocked right now, you can relogin and continue sending. If you are disconnected for the second time, you have already got blocked. But this does not mean your account is safe if you stop sending after the first time disconnection, it may be blocked after a few hours.

[bjdudu]

So I think if you do not have a large mount of SIM cards, give up whatsapp as a marketing tool. Maybe I am wrong, expect someone can exploit the limits.

[philklc]

Don't know about now, but last month I had 10 phone numbers and I used each of them to send 500 messages with a random 5 to 15 second delay between each message with no problem.

[bjdudu]

I have a test just now, get blocked for only 13 messages with the 20 seconds interval. Does this mean whatsapp also has a destination numbers limit?

[lahmacuns]

Whatsapp has a new precaution. It block after 19 messages. My trials: Reconnection for each message and with 2 seconds delay, my number is blocked after 19 messages. Changed the message content randomly and the result was the same. Changed IP and same results.

They have a new precaution. Anybody have a solution? I am planning to use it for newslettering this weekend. PS: It's not spam or marketing. I have a 2500 member institution.

[CODeRUS]

are you sendint typing_message signal?

[ivanbill]

I am facing same thing as well. I send many (>500) to one number is ok. But sending 21 messages to 21 numbers, account will be blocked.

[brittson]

@tgalal Hi, I tried to send 21 msgs (different msgs) to 21 different numbers and my number get block?Any idea how to solve this?

[timespace7]

If messages are not sent to different numbers, will the number be blocked? And for who are blocked, is your phone number registered by yowsup or by official Whatsapp client?

[mofakfree]

i tried send > 700 message at 20 During twenty minutes using official Whatsapp client and not blocked .... Maybe the problem is number of connections !!!!!!

[timespace7]

@mofakfree send to 20 different numbers?

[mofakfree]

@Timespace7 Of course different numbers I sent 700 message to different numbers

[kingk110]

@mofakfree It may be such a reason and it may also take into consideration if there was conversations before or not because all of the spammers are trying to send to numbers that there was no conversations before. it is a dummy reason maybe but I think it must be considered.

[Akuka]

I think the problem is in the registration process of yowsup, Some of my accounts blocked right after I sent two messages, it did not make sense! Is there any option to register as a normal user through the Android or through the Android Emulator and take away your whatsapp password? (and then try send messages from the computer..)

[lahmacuns]

the first number I have tried was not registered with yowsup. was an old one 2 months aged. first I thought the issue relies on that and I have tested the 2 numbers I've got with yowsp. It has banned within 19th message again. message content is completely changing in random for each message. I have put 2 seconds space between each message and the result is still the same. I believe this is a new update.

[ivanbill]

I think solution is send 19 and stop (disconnect maybe 10 sec), then login send 19 again.

[kingk110]

:+1: @lahmacuns I hope that after finding the solution here on github that will not be post as a repo because i think whatsapp is watching our comments and tricks and finding solutions but i am sure they won't defeat us!! Self confidence :P:P

[ivanbill]

I thought they are busy with facebook takeover?

[kingk110]

i think if you use an official client then it will send you the password each time you send a message or something like that so try to get a new password each time you want to send a message. will it stay be blocked after sending to 19 different numbers ? @Akuka can you try please to send each message with a new password and tell the limit?

[Akuka]

@kingk110 I understand what you're saying, but you sure passwords are sent in each message re in the original client? And how should I do it? After all, to get a new password - need to enter the verification code... so you need to get a new one all the time, so you must get sms/call to your phone, so its will be very slow and not practice.. I did not understand how you expect me to do it .. (Technical level)

[brittson]

No to get a new password just write the first request (-r sms), you will receive a new password, or it will show channel blocked On Jan 18, 2013 9:28 PM, "Akuka" notifications@github.com wrote:

[lahmacuns]

@adasmalakar Can you send more than 19 messages on your system?

[kingk110]

@Akuka excatly as @adasmalakar but forgot to say without changing the id of the config file

[Akuka]

@kingk110 you want to try it? i can give you one number... and the verification code...

[brittson]

@lahmacuns no,i tried sending random messages to each number/reregistering password per 17 channel but nothing works

[lahmacuns]

@adasmalakar you also get blocked after 17 messages?

[ivanbill]

I tested send 17 messages to 17 numbers and received okay...waited 1 minute and send another 17 msg to 17 more different numbers and it work. I try this for next 4 batches using same account it work. So it is time filter. If you send more than 17-19 in once shot , you will get block.

[brittson]

@Kingkong1 are you sure?

[ivanbill]

@adasmalakar yes I already test ... can you also test? just do send 17 msg to 17 different number. stop & wait 1-2 minutes and resend another 17 numbers.

[brittson]

[brittson]

@Kingkong1 did you check your number after sending?

[ivanbill]

@adasmalakar yes I check and it work. Just tested 200 numbers I just edit my php script now it work ok. I add to count every 16 numbers & sleep (30); Every last number is my number to verified it work. so far all I receive. I will have to check later it get block or not...sometime they delay block

[brittson]

ok ,will test again

[brittson]

Does anyone else tried @Kingkong1's Method successfully, cause mine is not working like this..

[abbas224252]

If we send 25 msg then also whatsapp block

[kingk110]

guys why dont you try to register an account on a client and pay for 1 year and then try to register using yowsup and tell the limit

[Akuka]

Hi I have some questions that might be able to help find a solution,

1. Has anyone found a way to get the password via the Android client / Emulator?
2. Do you use real numbers? or virtual numbers or something?
3. What can be done about number that blocked? Is it possible to free it somehow?
