Whatsapp workaround for using it on different handsets

Recommended Posts

Using whats app on wifi tab or on other mobile having different no.

We all have been using whatsapp and know about it as blackberry messenger killer because of its cross platform compatibility.

This workaround is for people who want to use whatsapp application on secondary phone with data plan but with primary number( as it must be with all the friends) or on wifi tablets

example-your primary phone no is 9830098300 and is popular and all your contacts know that number of yours so when you install whats app on this number your contacts using whatsapp application will come to know that you are on whats app but what happens when you are using two numbers say reliance cdma with evdo or wifi tablet which has cheap data connectivity on it and where you data connection is on all the time so its better to install whatsapp on that phone but has different number.

Method 1

Install whatsapp application on any android phone which is your primary phone and every body knows that no and complete the sms verification

and get your contact list.

then root your android phone

install titanium backup and backup the whatsapp application

now take the backup on the device you want whatsapp to work and restore it there

uninstall it from previous device or messages will come that you have whatsapp installed in multiple device.

Now you have working whats app on the device with your primary or popular phone number

Method 2

Install whats app on the phone in which you want to use it now when it ask's for phone number provide your primary phone number

then it will try to verify by sending a message which should come on your primary phone as soon as you receive it forward it to the phone where the installation is going on and your sms verification is complete provide a name and you are good for using it.

P.S this method wont work for wifi tablets but you can try with bluetooth message sending applications

Note- If you have changed your build.prop or modified it in root /system then method 2 will fail

Nice find

another thing you can do is just install whats app and activate it then remove it and put another sim

once activated it always works even without sim or different sim

He put the image for CDMA users only.

In Geniusji's posts, 50% of communication happens through words, rest in images.

Now i can appreciate "Monalisa" much better than any time in the past.
