Yowsup: Can't connect or send message [SOLVED]

[ik3umt]

Debian 9.1 Stretch
For a "classic" installation I give up apt-get install , just unzipped yowsup-master, and then "python setup.py install"
I've modified yowsup/env/env.py with

DEFAULT = "android"

and modified yowsup/env/env_android.py with

_MD5_CLASSES "IdHZifpmNTVVCJ50Cu7RMA=="

_VERSION "2.17.350"

I have obtained a new code via sms and registered with new password (added in config file)

When I issue the command :

yowsup-cli demos -l phonenumber:password -s destnumber "Hello"

the linux prompt is back without errors but without any message delivered too.....

with yowsup-cli demos -y -c "path_to_config_file"

The cli prompt is [offline]:

Typing /L I cannot login and the answer is :

general: Disconnected: Connection Closed

My number is not banned as if I enable a regular android device with whatsapp and a new code, it works 100%

Any hint please ?

I have the same issue.

Do you have android env enabled?. You need to use S40 env to login since android env need wa protocol 2.0 and its not implemented. S40 Uses protocol 1.6.

So in summary Android env to register, s40 env to use

It worked for me a day later.

[ik3umt]

Ok it works with s40 , so :

Install yowsup once unzipped with
"python setup.py install"

Modify yowsup/env/env.py with
DEFAULT = "android"

Modify yowsup/env/env_android.py with
_MD5_CLASSES "IdHZifpmNTVVCJ50Cu7RMA=="
_VERSION "2.17.350"

Then "python setup.py install" again

Ask for verification code :

yowsup-cli registration --requestcode sms --phone XXyyyyyyy --cc XX

register with received code (AAABBB) :

yowsup-cli registration --register AAABBB --phone XXyyyyyyy --cc XX

(you'll receive some rows , save the password that's like pw: y5+tVtomkdByEAxu4OqsSajeYXE=

Once correctly registered, modify again yowsup/env/env.py with
DEFAULT = "s40"

"python setup.py install" again

Check with
yowsup-cli demos -l XXyyyyyyy:yourpassword -s destination_number "Test msg"

I have solved this way
Hope it helps
