[Q] WhatsApp SMS verification failed on custom ROM - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I found the WhatsApp failed to work (SMS verification fail) some custom ROMs like below :
http://get.cm/get/jenkins/7080/cm-9.1.0-galaxysmtd.zip
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1730954
http://get.cm/get/jenkins/7091/cm-9.1.0-pyramid.zip
and mush more I tested...
"Call me" also does not works as they said voice verification failed too many time.
Does anyone here encounter issue like me ?
Please feel free to share with us.
I have contact WhatsApp tech support mant times but they cannot help. They suggest me to ask the ROM authors. That implies WhatsApp dont like people to use ROM released by XDA experts ?
Can we conclude that : If you like custom ROM, switch to other software like LINE or KakaoTalk ... ?
Without XDA, we cannot have ICS or Jellybeam on our old device like Galaxy S or Nexus One.
Thank for eveybody here.

I got the same problem, cannot verify Whatsapp and their customer service doesn't help at all.
All the email they reply only ask u to reinstall the app which won't solve the problem.
This is really bad and if they start to ask ppl to pay for this app, that's ridiculous.

.. I had the same problem I was looking apps the internet and finally found this ... it worked for me I hope this help u ..
Uninstall Whatsapp+.
Install original Whatsapp from Play Store.
Go through the setup into the main conversation screen and chat with some friends.
Backup your conversation in Option > Settings > Chat Settings > Backup conversations
Uninstall original Whatsapp.
Install Whatsapp+

Maybe a solution
I got the same problem with whatsapp on my rooted Sprint HTC ONE running Benny's 4.3 a couple of days ago. I tried to install viber today and it also said it needs the sms verification. I didn't receive any sms so i used the call option. Once again, i waited five minutes and then uninstalled viber because I am so impatient and then some more minutes later I finally got the call. I wrote down the verification number and then tried reinstalling whatsapp, but this time the sms verification worked instantly! Hope this helps!

HI, i have installed and rstored whatsapp a million times or so, when flashing and switching between roms. last night i tried something funny, and it cost me tooo much.
I tried to install whatsapp for another number(my phone is dual sim), while sms verification was happening, it got registered via my previously registered whatsapp no. Now even after i deleted the new no. account,i am still not able to get my old account back. when i give my old number, it doesn ask for sms verification, and goes to local backup directly, but fails there and throws error. on the other hand, i can verify the account, but cannot restore all my messages.
Please help, as my msgs are quite important..!

Viber - Can't Activate

Hi guys, need your help. I can't seem to be able to activate Viber via SMS or Phone Call code. Each time I put in my phone number, the number will not be 'saved' in Viber and thus, the activation code will not work. I been trying to clear cache, reinstall, delete all memory from viber but still it is not working.
I am so lost and any suggestion on how I can activate Viber on my phone?
p/s It was working fine until yesterday as I did a full wipe on the phone. After installing back, everything goes hair wire!
Please assist and thank you.
I am in Mumbai India

[Q] Whatsapp Stuck at "Initializing"

Running Helly_bean_i9100 latest build.
I installed whatsapp but it has been stuck at initializing forever. I have tried deleting it and installing a previous version, but it does not work too. I really need help!
Thank you in advance!
I got HTC One X and just flashed a couple of custom ROMs and found the same thing. I few other guys also experiencing it. We think it must be a whatsapp thing and are hoping it will resolve itself in time!

if this problem persists and u need whatsapp do as following:
1- install whatsapp version 2.8 and enter ur cell number..of course it will fail to initialize
2- don't delete whatsapp just replace it with the newer version
this will give u access to chats but you'll have no contacts so they have to talk to you first
it's a half solution but better than nothing
P.S: 2.8 is available on any file sharing websites just google it
Have you tried clearing cache for the app?

Download whatsapp pk from http://www.whatsapp.com/android/
Keep whatsapp preinstalled from playstore. Now install the apk and replace the application. And here you go, whatsapp is working for you.:good:
works!!

Hi Folks,

I recently bought this phone and after successfully installing Whatsapp latest version 2.9.4x, i can send and receive messages,
Issue : but when i try to send picture/images using attach option from my whatsapp i get an error "Image Preview is not available please try again" when i try to send Image directly from gallery's share option it sends some audio file from somewhere, i didnt even find that audio file in my phone using x-plore, i am very much confused what to do next. any idea?
Please share your thoughts.
Thanks,
Manish Bansal

How did you manage to register it?? Because Whatsapp just could not go past the verification for me. Came up with a error message everytime.
Works fine for me, did you try with a new network or uninstall/re-install Whatsapp?
Same problem here but fixed
hi qualityking i have the same problem with my new Micromax HD A116. but i mention that i dont have problem about audio file.
i uninstall Whatsapp and install WhatsApp again
This has fixed my WhatsApp problem.
For unknown audio file i advice to go for any good mobile antivirus.
I had the same problem. Just removed it and installed it again. works fine now.
worked perfectly fine was slow at first but i reinstalled it again

that was simple problem, you just need to change your kernel
ID LINE : mcsyber
Line Issue
Register your line while connected via WIFI
I had the same issue. It works fine if you do it that way.
There is no need for a new kernel.
I have used Line on Siyah and Chameleon (Apolo) however after a PIT change I developed issues when going back to Apolo
Hey There,
Same problem for me. Went from an Iphone with a Line account on it, and would like to transfer it to my Android device. Wasn't able to do this so far. I saw some of you might have the same problem.
I did it through WIFI, no change.
How did you guys figure it out?
Thanks!
