yes, just as predicted on https://blog.whatsapp.com/10000618/end-to-end-encryption they start to block old WA16 protocol, no more registration on 2.12.XX Version ..

[ghost]

@parag No problems here. And you can't just change the version by yourself, that's why you get bad_token
@assegaf Stop causing panic, WA16 will continue to work for a long time

[parag]

Got it @0xTryCatch . Was confused how to generate signature / md5 class and key. Is that all necessary to upgrade (and test) for version change?

[ghost]

Yes

[wkurosawa]

@parag Were you able to register?
I'm also having old_version problem, whether using master or wa16/develop branches..

[parag]

@wkurosawa Not yet. Not able to figure out how to generate signatures.

[coxsy1]

well.. it's happened to me... :V

Work for me by updating env like this: https://github.com/mgp25/Chat-API/commit/e3f994059ab466fee6732e99b826de4733c3e9b5

[coxsy1]

thanks Mr. @biji

[jlguardi]

Old-version issue fixed in latest master.

[guileh]

I'm getting -> fail -> bad_token

[guileh]

I changed the token in src/token.php now it's getting ->fail -> missing_param -> token! :(

[tgalal]

@guileh token.php ? are you lost ?

[guileh]

I was! 👍

[ibgithub]

I got bad token right now, please help me

[ibgithub]

I already solved, update in file env_s40.py

_TOKEN_STRING = "PdA2DJyKoUrwLw1Bg6EIhzh502dF9noR9uFCllGk1471306425030{phone}"

[makovez]

how can i get the token? i read this

PdA2DJyKoUrwLw1Bg6EIhzh502dF9noR9uFCllGk its a constant, never changes.
$timestamp it's the release time of the app, it's inside the app. Changes in every version.
$phone, your number + country code.

with the constant+timestamp+phone i can generate the token?
how can i get the timestamp?

How to generate signature / md5 class and key with latest version

[JavierPech]

Im getting the bad token error. I updated the WHATSAPP_USER_AGENT & WHATSAPP_VER variables to 2.17.223 in constatns php and now i get the bad token error. Please help. PS I've download the latest version of the Chat-Api

[gittempo]

@JavierPech did you manage to fix the bad_token issue?

What should be token for version 2.17.351

in token.php

  $classesMd5 = 'ry9Xz6kVioQctwA3G9z62Q=='; // 2.12.556

[vinayakvasu]

$classesMd5 = 'o17G0Imoh/pOmI5FpLpKHQ=='; // 2.17.420

[auyanik]

$classesMd5 ='????? '; // 2.18.8

help plss

[azamalvi]

For latest version you need to change in composer.json file like this
"require": { "whatsapp/chat-api": "dev-master" }
After updating composer, you need to change the Constants like below

Constants.php
const WHATSAPP_VER = '2.18.8';
const WHATSAPP_USER_AGENT = 'WhatsApp/2.18.8 Android/4.3 Device/Xiaomi-HM_1SW';

token.php
$classesMd5 = 'CjxZj9h0ptjV2RRSfH9aYA==';

Hope this will fix problem 🥇
