I suspect not, the algorithms for this are complicated enough - and in this case they'll be even harder since the source is essentially encrypted. Additionally, I don't imagine this would be a greatly requested feature since it's probably the same algorithm they use to prevent sending blank voice messages accidentally.

Whoa, that is a lot of ideas. Nice work ;) I have some questions about some of them:

1 - I won't be going down this route I'm afraid. This module is about small functionality enhancements, or we'll get into bikeshedding and this will become my full-time job :) Good idea though.

2 - Good idea, tracking as https://github.com/jaysh/xposed-whatsapp/issues/14

3 - This is already possible, right? You can go from the top-right and open the native gallery?

4 - Interesting! Tracking as https://github.com/jaysh/xposed-whatsapp/issues/15

5 - https://github.com/jaysh/xposed-whatsapp/issues/16 [MENTION=5901790]orville87[/MENTION] too

6 - Would this be always, or connection dependent? I can forsee issues with trying to transmit a 3MB image over 2G or 3G (time taken or data allowance issues). I haven't checked, but they might even do more compression on the servers.

7 - Can you elaborate here please? Share a full MP3 or just the song information?

8 - What's a transaction animation?

9 - Cool, like groups/messages different colour, etc.? Any others? Tracking as https://github.com/jaysh/xposed-whatsapp/issues/17

10 - Not possible unfortunately. The time you see is the time that the WhatsApp servers send, so WhatsApp would to send the correct time (even if last seen time = the time of latest message delivery because the device is not sending that it is "online").

More translations are always welcome. Are you familiar with XML/Github?

Your message was easy to read, don't worry :)

Great idea. [MENTION=5901790]orville87[/MENTION] too. How did you picture the pin order: if you pinned 2 conversations, then what order would they appear? The order they were pinned, or the latest message at the top of the Favourites section first? Now tracking this as https://github.com/jaysh/xposed-whatsapp/issues/18

I won't rule it out, but I am sceptical that my module would cause this bug. Can you try disabling the Xposed module, rebooting, and seeing if the picture gets bigger? If so, does enabling it and rebooting make it smaller again?

Thanks for confirming :) Perfect, thanks, merged! Speaking of translations, [MENTION=4493226]Kucharskov[/MENTION] [MENTION=5025244]King ov Hell[/MENTION] would it be possible to get similar updates for German and Turkish please? It seems like the beta has over 1k downloads with no bug reports so I will publish it as stable with the translation updates.

Thanks to all for their support!
[Xposed Framework Modules] PunchUp:
Both options sound good. Would it be possible to make both available and leave it to individual choice?

If implementing only one of them is possible, I think sorting by pin order would be ideal. And if these pinned chats can be reordered as well, even better!
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
What about hiding people in the list ?

- Hide people in main screen

- Hide people in people list

- Hide conversation

And re-show option too :)

Clear data, uninstall and install latest one from here
[Xposed Framework Modules] jayshah:
Latest version is 2.11.301, can you upgrade and test with that please? I cannot reproduce this bug on my phone and I cannot guess what is causing it.

It's okay if you don't know Github, let's do one step at a time. First, can you save this file (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/j...ster/res/values/strings_activity_settings.xml) and update all translations to Arabic, and PM it to me? You need to look for all the values before </string>, for example if "Individual Conversations" translates to "YYYY ZZZZ" then your file would look like this:

<resources>
<string name="pref_category_individual_conversations">YYYY ZZZZ</string>
....

That is, you should ignore anything with name="XXX", that is the "name" of the translation and should not be translated itself.

I got a nice laugh out of changing crush ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Salim.Keady:
Sorry last post i meant 2.11.326... anw i upgraded it to 2.11.328 still same bug... plus whatsapp force closes...

Removing the highlight group fixes it

I ll see into transaltion however i dont promise fast work since i have work and stuff to do

Changing crush... a bug to be fixed :p
[Xposed Framework Modules] jayshah:
Did you download from the website, or Google Play? In my region, latest on play is 2.11.301 so I'm curious where you got 2.11.328 from.

Also, can you describe your entire setup please? Android verison, phone make/model, language settings, etc? I want to reproduce this, or at least try, before making the highlight groups feature stable.
[Xposed Framework Modules] PunchUp:
That version is from the website
[Xposed Framework Modules] Salim.Keady:
Whatsapp Version 2.11.328

Device:gt i9505 jfltexx

Android version 4.4.2

Kernel googy max 1.1.4

Xposed installer version 2.6.1

Finished translation.. much easy then i thought.. i ll pm it to you

[Xposed Framework Modules] jayshah:
I have upgraded to 2.11.328 from the website and still been unable to reproduce this. Is there anything else significant you have customised with regards to your device? What language are you using the device in?

Would it be possible to make Whatsapp use default Android emoji in KitKat?
[Xposed Framework Modules] jineshpatel30:
Feature Request

[MENTION=1870545]jayshah[/MENTION]

if it's possible plz add option to make whats app theme "Dark" ( or like Dark material design :p )
[Xposed Framework Modules] Salim.Keady:
Nice one
[Xposed Framework Modules] Yakandu:
Another idea if not mentioned:

- Hability to silence a group forever or lot of time (1 month?)
[Xposed Framework Modules] mihahn:
On the latest WhatsApp versions you are able to silence groups for 100 years ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Salim.Keady:
Man am still wondering why he made it 100 years not like mute forever :p

- Guys Check out latest version of Whatsapp 2.11.322... it has in the end of the chat screen like a window to open the archived messages... i would request to return it back as it was but they wouldnt listen....

The point of archived messages is ( at least for me ) a way to hide message not to group them...

REQUEST: Disable this :P heheheh
[Xposed Framework Modules] kalani91:
any of you guys know how to receive whatsapp messages through text messages instead of the app?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Salim.Keady:
There is a module "Android emoji Replacer" i just saw it
[Xposed Framework Modules] PunchUp:
Yes saw it long ago. But the package size is quite large because of the emoji. Since KitKat natively supports coloured emoji anyway, I was thinking maybe there's some method to make Whatsapp use it instead
[Xposed Framework Modules] Yakandu:
I'm running the last google play whatsapp version and my limit is 1 week :/
[Xposed Framework Modules] mihahn:
You have to install the latest version from the WhatsApp servers! Check the WhatsApp website or use WhatsApp 2Date ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Salim.Keady:
Aha thats why i got my expiration date extended :p
[Xposed Framework Modules] mihahn:
I'd suggest the option to sort the contacts in the contact list by another order than first name - last name. Maybe it could be possible to offer last name - first name or some other options for the order? Would this be possible? :)

Mod question

I'm new to Whatsapp and I'm sure I can keep looking everywhere for an answer but thought I'd drop a comment here to see if anyone can help me or direct me. I'm looking for a mod that shows someone is typing me a message in my statusbar. It would be similar to TYPESTATUS for a jailbroken ios device using IMessage. Regardless of the similarity, has anyone seen or heard of a mod or hack that would show an icon or something in your phone's status bar showing someone is typing you a message in WhatsApp? This would allow you to be in other applications but still know someone is typing you. And I don't want to appear lazy, I have searched quite a bit today for an answer, but it looks like something people WANT, but nobody has made unless someone can show me differently. THANKS in advance. And by the way, if the answer is no, would anyone know how Tasker might be able to help with this? Just thinking it SHOULD be possible, just hoping a developer will make it happen.
[Xposed Framework Modules] mihahn:
I'm pretty sure it is possible and this video (and the others on YouTube) is not a fake. But the versions you can download from the links on YouTube are outdated :)

Maybe this could be a cool "feature" as the design is nice ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] jayshah:
Hi all,

Sorry for the delay between responses on here! I've been really busy as of late.

I haven't had much time to do any development on this module due to my full-time job taking up a lot of time. However, I will see what I can manage in the coming weeks.

In the meantime, I have release 1.3.1 which is marked as stable and contains the highlighting group feature. Hope you all enjoy it!

This is interesting actually. It falls under the same theme as enhancement #18 but there are more sort orders - and this is something quite high on my priority list to look into when I get a chance. What sort orders did you have in mind - or, does that enhancement actually cover your use-case too?

Not at present, but it sounds interesting. Are you saying the WhatsApp messages are merged into the SMS app (e.g. Hangout) or they have a separate thread so you can reply to either SMS or WhatsApp?

This is cool indeed, but maybe I'm missing something. By "transparent" does it just mean your home-screen wallpaper is set as the background of WhatsApp? Or does it respond to swiping, icons, other foreground apps, etc? I didn't see that in the video.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Salim.Keady:
Thanks for the new version and the credits
[Xposed Framework Modules] a.fontenele:
This would be nice too...

[MENTION=1870545]jayshah[/MENTION]

First of all, thanks for this module! It beats me why the functions you provided are still not present in the application itself... I'm really glad you provided this module...

Is it possible to create an option for "HIGHLIGHT BROADCAST MESSAGE GROUP"? This way it would be easier to spot them as well by highlighting them with a different color...
[Xposed Framework Modules] mihahn:
Well, pinning favorites is a really cool feature and I guess I'd use this, too. But WhatsApp has become much cleaner since they've included the archive function. Using this function I just have the most important chats in the chat list!

Such an order may be be interesting for the contact list, but I have no other suggestions for the order except "last name-first name". Don't know if somebody would use a "custom order", where you can move contacts up and down (and I guess this would be covered by the favorites, too) ;)

If it's possible to implement this function you could let us choose the wallpaper which we want to set as the background in WhatsApp (not just the wallpaper but the background in every screen). I guess this transparent background just applies for WhatsApp and not for other apps (as the downloadable app on YouTube is a WhatsApp.apk) :)

As a new feature (I guess I haven't read about it yet) I would suggest custom per-chat backgrounds, so you can set a pic of you and your best friend in this chat and in another chat the picture of you and another friend. Do you think this would be possible or is this too hard to implement? :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] J3:16:
The "keep contact list in the history" function breaks the possibility to start a new chat. If I go to the contacts list and I choose one it goes back to the conversations list instead of opening the chat. No problem opening already open chats. If I disable it that behavior disappears, but the other annoying behavior it used to correct returns. Can you fix this please?
[Xposed Framework Modules] mihahn:
I'm not experiencing this problem on the latest WhatsApp version, which version are you using? Can you provide a log to help the developer finding out what's wrong? :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] PunchUp:
Just found this module which allows 2 Skype installations.. Could you do something like that for Whatsapp too? Would be great to use 2 accounts on the same phone.
[Xposed Framework Modules] jayshah:
My pleasure :) I'm glad you're enjoying it!

I had a cursory look and from I can see, on the receivers side, the UI doesn't seem to distinguish broadcast messages from normal messages (or does it, I don't have too much experience with them?). Currently I'm avoiding inspecting into protocol level details because things can get complicated (and unstable) really fast.

Yeah, this is a great point. I mean they're not identical functionality, but certainly you can simulate a "pin favourites" by just constantly archiving the chats you aren't interested in keeping in the list. I've updated the issue on GitHub accordingly.

Sounds reasonable, I'm tracking it on GitHub: https://github.com/jaysh/xposed-whatsapp/issues/21

[MENTION=5939461]J3:16[/MENTION] please see the reply (quoted) by [MENTION=4660165]mihahn[/MENTION]. I am on the same page: I cannot reproduce this with the latest version of WhatsApp, so firstly can you confirm you are running the latest version (and confirm which version that is, please)? If you can still reproduce it with the latest version, please enable "debugging" mode from the settings, re-produce the problem and send me a copy of your Xposed error logs (/data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/log/error.log). You can email it to me on e+whatsapp@jay.sh if you don't want to attach them to the forum or put them on GitHub. I'll only use them for reproducing the problem, then they'll be removed.

The last time I went near this kind of idea, I lost WhatApp messages because I confused the message pushing mechanism. So, I'm afraid this is too high-risk (and time investment) for me to try as a 1-hour-every-so-often side-project :(
[Xposed Framework Modules] PunchUp:
No problem at all. I understand :)

But just to bring to your notice, there is already a modded implementation available here. Perhaps you talk to the dev? Seems like a long shot but maybe it could pave an easier way for you to work on it.

And besides that, I have another request. When Whatsapp is accessed using a conversation shortcut on the desktop, it goes to the chat list while going back. Could you make it go straight to the desktop instead?
[Xposed Framework Modules] jayshah:
This is a great point. I have messaged the dev, and I certainly agree - the implementation details might expedite the research I would need to do. In fact, I did realise one thing: you could install whatsapp-plus.net in order to achieve what you want (I didn't try it myself, but logically it should work given the stock WhatsApp allows you to input any phone number you like when setting it up, so even if WhatsApp+ doesn't, you can just use WhatApp+ for your devices WhatApp, and the stock WhatsApp for your other number).

Also a great point, and fits nicely with my other mods. To me, the fact that it doesn't already do this is quite bad UX. I'm tracking it here: https://github.com/jaysh/xposed-whatsapp/issues/22
[Xposed Framework Modules] PunchUp:
Yes I'm aware of this. No offense to any dev, but I prefer using the official versions honestly.

If you could manage to implement the feature using your awesome module, that would be great indeed. But otherwise no big deal really.

Thanks for all your efforts!
[Xposed Framework Modules] jayshah:
That's completely fair - and the same reason I made this mod rather than using WA+ :)

I will certainly try, I've asked the other dev whether he things it'd be practical given the 'limitations' (architecture, essentially) of Xposed and I hope they reply so I can get a concrete answer.

Thanks for your thanks!
[Xposed Framework Modules] PunchUp:
Great! Let us know when you find something conclusive :)

Great mod. I have a suggestion. I have noticed on android 4.1.2 and others in JB that whatsapp notifications regardless of your phone being in vibration or normal it always vibrates. Is possible to modify the inapp settings so that if its on default it follows the system settings. So that it vibrates only when the phone is set to vibrate mode

Sent from my HTCSensation
[Xposed Framework Modules] jayshah:
Hi all,

It's been a while! Some quick updates of the module are in order. Apologies for any typos, I'm typing from my phone.

Main point: I have updated the mod with the ability to disable the expiry check. In combination with an older version of WhatsApp, you are able to prevent sending read receipts (though, on the version I have, 2.11.399, you are able to receive them). This can be used to provide immediate relief from being forced to send read receipts. To downgrade and retain data, you can use "adb shell" followed by "pm install -r -d /path/to/whatsapp.apk" for the version you want to downgrade to.

Thank you, however I don't experience this bug. Does anyone else? Is upgrading Android an option for you?

This would be great. I did manage to find a small amount of time to reverse engineering the newest versions but only got as far as producing a mod that would not notify it as read immediately, but it would mark is as read a few minutes after reading it (presumably WhatsApp has a background thread that notices the read receipt wasn't sent, and sends it). If they add the option, it'll save me a lot of work in maintaining a mod for it :D

However, I have listed a workaround that I'm currently using (seemingly by luck) at the top of this message, where I can receive read notifications, but don't appear to send them.

I'll look into this when I get a chance and see if it's a quick win :)

I afraid not, I have no interest myself in developing and therefore maintaining a mod for an application I don't use. Sorry about that.

Thanks,

Jay
