reason: b'old_version'
status: b'fail'

I'm not testing with Android, since apparently results in blocked numbers

[juanpmarin]

@EibrielInv I tested with Android and it does not work also, s40 is still not working ?

Got the same issue looks like stopped working since last week.?
yowsup-cli v2.0.15
yowsup v2.5.7

INFO:yowsup.common.http.warequest:{"login":"61xxxxxxx","status":"fail","reason":"old_version"}
status: fail
reason: old_version

[vichogerman]

I have the same issue, please give more traction in order to get a fix for this.

[luisnunezsalgado]

@mcepl that is another error, it's not related with the old_version issue reported on this bug.

[Elintondm]

I have the same error: 'old_version'

[penpenaj]

_status: fail
reason: old_version_

if i login using env android... phone number get banned...
if i login using env s40 .. status : fail

s40 env version = 2.16.12
same here... happen since 2 days ago

[horaciojr]

do not use s40, it doesnt work.

[halikarnass]

try using enviroment android and change this in the env_android-py
_MD5_CLASSES = "YqW9KfOVL6cRD8aiNh8l6w=="
_VERSION = "2.18.45"

works fine for me

[cskowronnek]

@halikarnass it works, thank you

[maiconcosta]

@halikarnass it works, thank you

[patR1]

it works for what 2-3 days ? then you wait for some other code upgrade.. I guess that's the only option when using an un supported ..

as for myself im exploring other options then yowsap.api

Thank you

[for2ne]

Hi @halikarnass, whatsapp does not ban a number in a couple of days automatically if to register via android env?

Thank

[munknex]

@halikarnass

Requesting code using -E android works fine:
./yowsup-cli registration -E android --requestcode sms --phone 380... --cc 380

But registration using -E android fails:
./yowsup-cli registration --register XXXXXX --phone 380... --cc 380 -E android

{"login":"...","status":"fail","reason":"temporarily_unavailable","retry_after":300,"sms_wait":300,"voice_wait":300}

Registration using -E s40 also fails with reason: old_version.

Any ideas how to fix it? Maybe we need new s40 token?

Hello,

I am getting the same error during registration --register step but with android env.

INFO:yowsup.common.http.warequest:{"login":"XXXXXXXXXXX","status":"fail","reason":"old_version"}

I have other number/identity already registered and It's still working.
I am trying to perform the registration with this config:

_MD5_CLASSES = "YqW9KfOVL6cRD8aiNh8l6w=="
_VERSION = "2.18.45"

[pabloruan0710]

Any ideas how to fix it? Maybe we need new s40 token?

[for2ne]

WhatsApp stoped registration new numbers via Nokia s40.
Registrations via android env are banned by WhatsApp automatically.

[munknex]

@for2ne any ideas how to avoid ban after registration via android env?

[flavionegrao]

Has anyone been able to register a new number recently?

[BodduSatya]

while registering with 6 digit code , i got the following old version.

yowsup-cli registration --register 564100 --phone xxxxxxxxxxxx --cc 91
yowsup-cli v2.0.15
yowsup v2.5.7

INFO:yowsup.common.http.warequest:b'{"login":"xxxxxxxxxxxx","status":"fail","reason":"old_version"}\n'
status: b'fail'
login: b'xxxxxxxxxxxx'
reason: b'old_version'

i am using en_android.py following version
_MD5_CLASSES = "YqW9KfOVL6cRD8aiNh8l6w=="
_VERSION = "2.18.45"

please help me.

[BodduSatya]

yes, i got the solution.

[JulioImolesi]

@BodduSatya What you've done?

[BodduSatya]

open file: yowsup/env/__init__.py

Comment the third line:

from .env_s40 import S40YowsupEnv

This will force registration to use android_env file.

If you have installed yowsup using pip, you shuold uninstall it first (pip uninstall yowsup) then run build and install.
To record a list of installed files, you can use:
python setup.py install --record files.txt

python setup.py build
python setup.py install

[munknex]

@BodduSatya but how do you avoid ban? How long do you use registered account after registration?

[BodduSatya]

unfortunately, my number was banned , after register 1 day.

any other solution...

Now I am getting this message on one number I already registered a few months ago:

general: Login Failed, reason: not-authorized
Auth Error, reason not-authorized

I would like to remember this:

_VERSION = "2.18.339"

python setup.py build

python setup.py install

yowsup-cli registration -r sms -m 000 -n 00 -p 91XXXXXXXXXX -C 91 -E android
