Guys, edit the yowsup/env/env_android.py file as below:

_MD5_CLASSES = "ry9Xz6kVioQctwA3G9z62Q==" 
_VERSION = "2.12.556"

Then, try to register.

could you please tell us after how many days or when we should update these two parameters ?
is there way to get info about this?

ritu-kang picture ritu-kang on 22 Apr 2016

I applied the patch above, this way:

/ 禄 sudo vim usr/lib/python3.5/site-packages/yowsup/env/env_android.py 

    _KEY = "eQV5aq/Cg63Gsq1sshN9T3gh+UUp0wIw0xgHYT1bnCjEqOJQKCRrWxdAe2yvsDeCJL+Y4G3PRD2HUF7oUgiGo8vGlNJOaux26k+A2F3hj8A="
    _MD5_CLASSES = "ry9Xz6kVioQctwA3G9z62Q==" 
    _VERSION = "2.12.556"
    _OS_NAME = "Android"
    _OS_VERSION = "4.3"
    _DEVICE_NAME = "GalaxyS3"
    _AXOLOTL = True

Note that I don't have a Galaxy S3 mobile phone (but a Huaweii one). I just let the default value.
Anyway, trying again the registration, I still get the error:

paoloap picture paoloap on 22 Apr 2016

@rafaelsilverioit Thanks a Lot. Your soluction works fine for me.

jonatascalebe picture jonatascalebe on 22 Apr 2016

@paoloap Are you using python 2.7? I mean, you have edited the correct file but while running, android version remains 2.12.440 (see your log).
I could be due to you are aditing yowsup installed for python 3.5 and probably you are running 2.7.

Check again your linux env and file edition. And take a look into debug output to verify correct version.

jlguardi picture jlguardi on 22 Apr 2016

Hi @jlguardi , I tried this:

~ 禄 python -V
Python 3.5.1

This is the right way to find out the version of Python which is actually running, right?
Thanks very much

paoloap picture paoloap on 23 Apr 2016

Old-version issue fixed in latest master.

Hi @jlguardi , I'm getting the same error in latest master. Any idea?
