Installing it. Hopefully it will work. ^-^

EDIT: It works!! Thanks a lot [MENTION=6120877]KrishnaSagar[/MENTION].

I was longing for a Material update from WhatsApp, but now since I have this; I got no problems now. Anyway, not sure if bug or anything, but the icons of items in Settings (inside Help, Account, Chat Settings, Notifications, Contacts) are not shown.
[Android Apps and Games] alleineforever:

Can anyone explain to me the light near the profile green amd grey... amd half gray dark half light

What do they mean ?
[Android Apps and Games] juupi:
I've been wondering the same.
[Android Apps and Games] Sri2702:
It's the substitute for ticks. Here are their meanings, with the previous symbols in brackets. These are from my observations:

Full Green means your message has been read. (Double blue ticks)

Half Green, half dark green means you have received a message but haven't read yet. (green arrow)

Full Grey means message has been delivered. (Double grey ticks)

Half grey, half dark grey means you have received the message, read it, but haven't replied yet. (Grey arrow)

3/4th Grey means your hasn't been delivered yet. (Single tick)

Whatsapp Emoji

Hello!

I just would like to know if there someway to make whatsapp without emojis. I mean, whatsapp contains .png files, and xml's, to application send emojis. But my android already have emojis. So I wanted a version of whatsapp without emojis on application.

Is that possible?

Can someone try help me? I loocking for this long time.
[Android Apps and Games] VictorLapin:
This is how the original Whatsapp should look like for sure. Great work.
[Android Apps and Games] Salim.Keady:
Maybe we should email this for whatsapp developers with lots of signatures
[Android Apps and Games] Vextil:
Hello!

Hello everyone, I'm the developer of WhatsAppMD.

Just wanted to point out that I will be monitoring this thread so if you have any inquiries I will try to answer as fast as possible!

If you'd like, you can also drop me an email to vextil@gmail.com or join the G+ development community "WhatsAppMD Development" (I'm not allowed to post links yet.)
[Android Apps and Games] M3gAtR0N:
Brilliant work !! This is how WhatsApp should actually look like !!
[Android Apps and Games] Vextil:
This is a really late reply, I didn't find the thread sooner.

If account verification fails:

- Install original WhatsApp

- Verify account

- Restore messages (if any)

- Backup messages (if any)

- Uninstall WhatsApp

- Install WhatsAppMD

Really nice work! I really like the app.

Also nice solution! But if it is possible could you please ad an option in settings or something to switch between the checkmarks of the original whatsapp app and the ones you made?

Thanks in advance!

[MENTION=5472973]Vextil[/MENTION]

I tried you app and it is AWESOME

However i still comfused if i am willing to sacrifice Whatsapp Plus Feature for the gorgeous UI you have

Can you provide us a theme for whatsapp plus or collaborate with whatsapp plus patcher Rahil of The OsmDroid.net to make it default UI or something like this ?

And thanks for the new icons
[Android Apps and Games] Vextil:
I'm glad you like it!

To be completely honest I wouldn't like to do that. I personally don't like WhatsApp+, it feels too bloated. Plus, all the customization options it has make it much harder to make the modifications look good in all cases.

That being said, I think the developers are geniuses. The amount of smali modification they had to do is astonishing.

---------- Post added at 11:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:26 PM ----------

Good to hear :)

I don't like adding customization options because they tend to slow down the app startup time, at least that's the case with WhatsApp. I try to make the app as close to stock as possible to both keep it as fast as the stock version and make it easier and faster to update the base app and apply all modifications again. Hope you can understand.

Just wanted to point out the linked version (2.0.1) is outdated. The current one is 2.1.0 with 2.2.0 coming in the following days. Can't post download links for the new versions but you can get them either from the GitHub "Releases" section or the G+ community "WhatsAppMD Development".
[Android Apps and Games] jesan9:
really nice job... i love it. Pretty fast and simple... i have a question.. can i get banned from Whatsapp if i use this one? for that thing that whatsapp delete your account if you use alternative clients? thx and sorry for my english
[Android Apps and Games] Vextil:
No one has ever been banned for using WhatsApp+, and that particular app has been around for more than 2 years so we can safely assume nothing is going to happen.

Rules don't say anything about modified clients, WhatsApp bans accounts that use custom clients intended for "evil" purposes, like massively spam other users or bypass the yearly payment (which they don't actually force you to pay anyway).

(Recien veo que sos de Venezuela, por las dudas si no entendiste algo puedo explicar en español).

What do you mean exactly by "back to contacts feature"?
[Android Apps and Games] Salim.Keady:

Back to contacts is

When opening a chat in contatc sreen

Back button redirect me to contacts screnn

Not to chats screen
[Android Apps and Games] jesan9:
Thanks, i got it... just wanted to be sure for me and for a friend who i told him about this whatsapp and he was not sure about download it because of that "ban"... (gracias ^^)
[Android Apps and Games] Salim.Keady:
Vextil is right about what he said

However as i heard (am not sure about it) if you use the whatsapp betas you download it from the site almost daily updated) they will keep extending your service

Is it allright to make such modifications in an app? I remember whatsapp+ was blocked in xda after whatsapp's warning.

Otherwise , really great work i love it.

[Android Apps and Games] adrianblp:
Wow thanks! This makes regular whatsapp look like gingerbread ;P
[Android Apps and Games] Vextil:
That has always happened to me randomly even with stock WhatsApp, though I've noticed an increased number of reports lately. I don't know what causes it but hopefully it will be fixed when I update the base app.

[Android Apps and Games] Vextil:
There are other things planned for now. I wouldn't hold my breath haha.

The way I did it was to create a "mask" drawable and overlay it on top of the avatar. It makes it seem like it's rounded but in reality there's just an an image on top giving the illusion. Given the way your messaging app looks, it's not possible to do it this way. You'll need to set a solid background.

There are other methods but they involve smali modification and I really wouldn't like to get into that :p

EDIT: Better idea, why not just download another messaging app? There are a lot with rounded avatars already.

I have whatspp + ....so should i follow the procedure... Or first install original whatspp , take backup...then install this version??

On my One M7 everything is still fine, but yesterday I tried to install WhatsAppMD on my Nexus 4 with 5.0 and it won't register my second phone number. After installing the official version from Play Store everything was fine. Suck it WhatsApp...All because Facebook bought that ****. And when they start having ads in it I'll quit completely.

[Android Apps and Games] Salim.Keady:

All modified clients are getting banned. Not every user though, seems to be random.

[Android Apps and Games] Salim.Keady:
Well thanks man for the fix... and the willing to find one ...

But the question is WHY ? WHY NOW ?

What is whatsapp developers thinking ?
[Android Apps and Games] Vextil:
Most likely they wanted to move as much people as they could to the stock version for the introduction of VOIP and the web client.

That or they just snapped after seeing the whopping userbase WhatsApp+ has. Apparently 700 million people isn't enough.
[Android Apps and Games] Sri2702:

[Android Apps and Games] Portgas D. Ace:
[MENTION=5472973]Vextil[/MENTION]: thank you very much, my friend. Recently thought about turning my back on Whatsapp, as it keeps getting heavier and heavier with each release. But your mod changed my mind. Nice interface and very smooth :) Hopefully, you are able to fix the stupid "banning other client's user because we want more money"-thing for your mod, it would be a shame if this great (opensource - can't even believe this!!) project would be abandoned :(

Sad sad day for devs who tried to give us a better user experience with whatsapp. Hopefully they won't do the same thing to the dev of this " mod" as they did to the whatsapp+ dev
