Yowsup: Authentication Error, Not Authorized

[parthpower]

I did the registration from a new phone number which never been registered to the WhatsApp before, logged into the CLI demo, sent some messages and it immediately disconnected. Now when I try to login with the same credentials I get general: Login Failed, reason: not-authorized.

I tried to register again to the same number and I'm getting INFO:yowsup.common.http.warequest:{"status":"fail","reason":"blocked"}

PS: I'm guessing WhatsApp doesn't like any third-party lib.

Yes, whatsapp doesn't like yowsup. However, I've never been banned an I've several lines working. But you will be banned if spam (more than 10 messages to recipients that don' known you) or if same message is always sent (with e2e I think this check will disappear).

The 'check' won't dissapear, end-2-end encryption only ciphers the content, the rest remains the same. All 'checks' are server side.

If you code correctly, you wont be blocked, i have one number that hasnt been blocked for 2 years now.

Blocked after 2 messages.
I tried two cards of different operators.
I think this is whatsapp bans, this is not a yowsup problem.

Hi @jlguardi what is the secret?

I have been blocked about 10 times, I'm not sending spam, not message e2e, just to a groups

@mgp25 when I said that the check will disappear, I mean that entropy can't be measured in encrypted messages.
@ronromer see mgp25/chatApi wiki where good practic practices are introduced. Don't start too many chats fro your bot (10 is too match). Sync your contacts...

[parthpower]

@mgp25 I was using the Yowsup built in CLI demo, which I guess, has proper code.
@jlguardi Before the number was blocked, I happen to send exactly 2 messages saying "lol" to myself (my other number which was in the contact list).
I think there should be some kind of warning message in README.md

"@mgp25 If you code correctly, you wont be blocked, i have one number that hasnt been blocked for 2 years now."

Which steps the code must follow?

Thank you

@McBacker what are you doing correctly for prevent the ban because i blocked more than 5 sims
im using the wa16 version

@McBacker i would also know what you doing correctly, because i synced my contact in der CLI with the command "/contacts sync numbers-comma-separarted" and also was not sure if it is enougth to do this one time, so i experimentally added in the "32_yowsup.pm" Modul on my FHEM Server following Code in the "sub yowsup_Parse($$)" after the line "yowsup_Write( $hash, "/presence name .....":

yowsup_Write( $hash, '/contacts sync numbers-comma-separarted' );

I wanted to be sure that the contacts keep synced every time. So after 5 min testing and 5min afk, i got blocked also with my secound number (it's my homenumber to doing automation things like status of the room thermostats or sending commands to them, it worked perfectly for 6 months but after the 1st April, it is like that Whatsapp or whatever is still fooling us :D ).

Maybe some of you guys have a advice or a fix for this blocking problem.

It's like a purge if third party Users. I think Whatsapp will make its
rules Straight and will try everything for third party users not to use it.
