[[Image:Wazapp-logo.png|thumb|128px|Wazapp logo created by [http://talk.maemo.org/member.php?u=59328 The Best Isaac]]]Wazapp is an IM application for N9 that allows you to chat with your Whatsapp buddies.
Wazapp consists of 2 parts, the IM application (wazapp), which is in Python, and the accounts plugin (waxmppplugin) in C++. The accounts plugin should be rewritten in python soon.

===How to backup your Wazapp database===
+
-
This should be done prior to anything else. Just in case things get bad (and they will sooner or later).
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
====GUI solution====
+
-
 
+
-
# Disconnect USB cable in case phone is connected to computer.
+
-
# Activate "Show root filesystem" '''AND''' "Show hidden files" in Filebox settings menu.
+
-
# Navigate to folder
+
-
#:<pre>/home/user/.wazapp</pre>
+
-
# You should see a file similar to
+
-
#:<pre>123456789012345.db</pre>
+
-
# Select and copy it (long keypress)
+
-
# Navigate to
+
-
#:<pre>/home/user/MyDocs</pre>
+
-
#:and paste the file here
+
-
# Close Filebox and connect your phone by USB cable.
+
-
# You should find your backup copy in the MyDocs folder.
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
====Terminal solution====
+
-
 
+
-
# Disconnect USB cable in case phone is connected to computer.
+
-
# Open your favourite terminal
+
-
# Type
+
-
#:<pre>cp ~/.wazapp/*.db ~/MyDocs/</pre>
+
-
# Close terminal and connect your phone by USB cable.
+
-
# You should find your backup copy in the MyDocs folder.

-
 
-
==Common errors and their solutions==
 
-
 
-
=== Stays Offline ===
 
-
You need to open your phone Settings -> Internet Connection -> Switch on "Allow background connections". Otherwise Wazapp doesn't detect connection to Internet.
 
-
 
-
=== Connection error===
 
-
Error Message:
 
-
status shows "Connecting…" when Wazapp is running.
 
-
Solution:
 
-
# Delete folder (''if you intend to use Filebox: folder is hidden'')
 
-
/home/user/.wazapp
 
-
# Update to [http://wiki.maemo.org/Wazapp#Latest_Upstream_build latest Beta]
 
-
 
-
=== Registration fail-too-many error===
 
-
Error Message:
 
-
"Failed. Server said: fail-too-many"
 
-
Solution:
 
-
 
-
If you are already using dev versions, update to the [http://wiki.maemo.org/Wazapp#Latest_Upstream_build latest Beta], it should fix that issue. If not, follow the steps below:
 
-
 
-
# Open Wazapp on N9 and start registration
 
-
# Download and install [http://bluestacks.com/ BlueStacks]
 
-
# Start BlueStacks and install WhatsApp
 
-
# Start Whatsapp and register your phone number
 
-
# Wait for verification code. Wazapp should register automatically if left open
 
-
 
-
=== Registration fail-too-recent:XXX===
 
-
Error Message:
 
-
"Failed. Server said: fail-too-recent:XXX"
 
-
Solution:
 
-
There are various solutions for this situation
 
-
<pre>* You recently registered or logged in, please wait for about XXX minutes before trying to re-register.
 
-
* You are using multiple devices with the same number on WhatsApp. WhatsApp meant for one device per session. Please remove WhatsApp completely from your previous device and re-register after mentioned XXX minutes</pre>
 
-
 
-
===Need to re-register===
 
-
Error message:
 
-
"need to remove your account from accounts manager and re-register"
 
-
# Remove account: Accounts – Wazapp – menu at bottom right – Delete Account
 
-
# Start Wazapp
 
-
# Follow registration path
 
-
 
-
If registration fails, follow the [http://wiki.maemo.org/Wazapp#Registration_fail-too-many_error the fail-too-many instructions]
 
-
 
-
=== Can't sync all contacts===
 
-

-
 
-
=== Unable to receive messages===
 
-
Error:
 
-

-
Solution:
 
-
# Uninstall Wazapp (''do not remove Wazapp account'')
 
-
# Restart phone
 
-
# Remove folder (''if you intend to use Filebox: folder is hidden'')
 
-
/home/user/.wazapp/
 
-
# Update to [http://wiki.maemo.org/Wazapp#Latest_Upstream_build latest Beta]
 
-
# Restart phone
 
-
# Start Wazapp
 
-
 
-
=== Notifications Are Silent on Ringing Profile ===
 
-
 
-
As of 24/09/12, there is a bug in Wazapp whereby new messages only vibrate instead of ringing with the chat notification.
 
-
 
-
 
-
The developers are currently working to fix this. This section will be updated once the bug is fixed.
 
-
 
-
<pre>Possible solution thanx to fenix_86
 
-
1  Uninstall Wazapp
 
-
2  Reboot the phone
 
-
3  Remove (preferably rename) the folder .wazapp in home/user/...
 
-
4  Remove (preferably rename) the folder Wazapp in home/user/MyDocs..
 
-
5  Install the latest version of Wazapp
 
-
6  Reboot the phone
 
-
7  Launch Wazapp and syncronize contact list
 
-
8  Reboot the phone (incase standby icons are red squares)
 
-
9  Relaunch Wazapp
 
-
10  Delete the old renamed folders (renamed in steps 3 and 4)</pre>
 
-
 
-
=== Wazapp Notifications Icon covers SMS Notification Icon ===
 
-
 
-
When you have an unread Wazapp message as well as an unread SMS, you might see only a Wazapp Notification Icon.
 
-
 
-
This is NOT a bug but a feature in Harmattan whereby SMS/IM/Wazapp are displayed by the latest Notification icon only!
 
-
 
-
 
-
 
-
=== Wazapp media is NOT found in Gallery ===
 
-
 
-
By default, all Wazapp media using Tarek's build is stored in '''/home/user/MyDocs/.wazapp/'''
 
-
 
-
Navigate to this location by using a file manager like Filebox to view the media.
 
-
 
-
In CepiPerez's build all Wazapp media are stored in '''/home/user/MyDocs/Wazapp/media''' and should appear in the Gallery
 
-
 
-
 
-
 
-
=== Last Seen Time for a Contact is Inaccurate ===
 
-
 
-
Error:
 
-
 
-
When Opening a Chat with a Contact, the last seen time is Inaccurate. Mostly, it is the time when you last sent a message to the contact.
 
-
 
-
 
-
Work-around:
 
-
 
-
Return to the Chat menu and Open the Chat with the Contact again. The Last Seen time will now be updated to be reflected accurately.
 
-
 
-
 
-
 
-
=== Red Dots Appear instead of Notification Icons ===
 
-
 
-
Error:
 
-
 
-
On the Low-Power Screen, Status Bar and Lockscreen instead of the green Wazapp Notification Icon, a Red Square/Box/Dot appears.
 
-
 
-
 
-
Solution:
 
-
 
-
Reboot your phone. Most probably you have done a fresh installation and have not rebooted your phone.
 
-
 
-
 
-
 
-
=== Pictures not Appearing for Selecting Profile Picture ===
 
-
 
-
Error:
 
-
 
-
When choosing a Profile Picture, the selection screen has an ever-spinning spinner.
 
-
 
-
 
-
Solution:
 
-
Quit Wazapp and re-start it. If it still isn't fixed, uninstall Wazapp from your system and delete all files in '''/opt/waxmppplugin/''' before rebooting your device and re-installing the latest version of Wazapp
 
-
 
-
 
-
=== Changing language does not work ===
 
-
 
-
Error:
 
-
When changing the language and restarting Wazapp, the language is still english.
 
-
 
-
Solution:
 
-
CepiPerez dev builds don't include language files other than English, even though other languages are visible in the settings menu. However, if you want to use a language other than English in "development" builds, follow these directions: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1277303#post1277303
 
-
 
-
=== Sending voice recordings does not work ===
 
-
 
-
Error:
 
-
When sending voice recordings nothing happens.
 
-
 
-
Solution:
 
-
You need to receive a voice recording from your contact first.
 
-
 
-
=== Conversation missing and need to re-register after swapped SIM card ===
 
-
 
-
Error:
 
-
After swapped sim card, Wazapp will ask user to re-register and previous conversation is missing.
 
-
 
-
Solution:
 
-
This is expected and that is how it works in WhatsApp official client.
 
-
 
-
=== No conversation bubble notification for one message ===
 
-
 
-
As per [http://wiki.maemo.org/Wazapp#Latest_Upstream_build latest Beta], developer [http://forums.internettablettalk.com/showpost.php?p=1290257&postcount=6946 said that] this is how it will work.
 
-
 
-
=== Registration fails with old_version ===
 
-
 
-
Error:
 
-
If you try to register phone number on latest version 0.9.22, obtain a code by some means and enter it manually, wazapp gives an error old_version.
 
-
 
-
Solution:
 
-
# Head over to https://openrepos.net/content/alexxxlrus/wazapppath.
 
-
# Download wazapppath deb package.
 
-
# Install latest wazapp 0.9.22 (don't launch it) and install wazapppath deb you just downloaded.
 
-
# Open wazapp and try to register. It should work. You may still have to enter the code manually.
 
-
 
-
=== Cannot obtain registration code via text or voice ===
 
-
 
-
Error:
 
-
You are unable to obtain registration code by text or voice.
 
-
 
-
Solution:
 
-
# Head over to https://github.com/shirioko/WART.
 
-
# Download WART.
 
-
# Run WART, enter your phone number with country code but without + or 0. Request registration code. You should get a text or call.
 
-
 
-
== How to pay for your WhatsApp account ==
 
-
 
-
<strike>Your 'WhatsApp' account usage time may be expired if you get problems sending messages or logging in.
 
-
You can pay via PayPal to extend your 'WhatsApp' account:
 
-
 
-
German, Austrian and Swiss accounts/ numbers:
 
-
Use WhatsApp payment link generator [http://whatsapppp.der-s.com/ here]
 
-
 
-
Alternative solution:
 
-
Use this link: http://www.whatsapp.com/payments/cksum_pay.php?phone=XXX&cksum=YYY
 
-
You have to change
 
-
XXX to your number in international format
 
-
and
 
-
YYY to md5(XXX + 'abc'). </strike>
