outgoing calls cancelled

I installed 2.12.19 . I receive calls and can talk (some small delay) but when I call out the call is cancelled.

The did see the call but has not enough time to answer. I uninstalled rebooted and re-installed again to no avail. The problem remains irrespective using wifi or my cellphn e provider: outgoing calls cancelled as shown in the call log. Hope somebody can advise. I have an LG P500 android 4.0.4 oxygen version
[General Topics] Wubuwamba:
I have the same problem here, still with the latest version 2.12.23.

When I call somebody I have to send him just one letter or a dot or whatever as a 'wake up ping' and then the callee sees my call in his app and everything works. Even if the call is stopped and I connect him again in the next few minutes, everything works fine.

But when the callee wasn't online for a longer time it doesn't work. When he opens his app later he gets the info that there was a missed call.

As I said a 'wake up ping message' helps but it is annoying.

1. start a call

2. start a chat with the callee during the call and send a single letter or smiley or dot or whatever

3. go back to the call

That helps.

I hope they will fix that soon.

Came across a website posting that users must first go to WhatsApp in app manager and Force Stop the app. Once you are done with that, you have the app to receive call as well as see the new interface with calling tab on the app. Then you ask for an invite call.

Another website stated that if after you get the invite call and your whatsapp UI is not updated, do a hard reset on your device and re-install whatspp thus updating its UI.

Has anyone tried either of the two or can anyone validate this information?

Im not willing to do a hard reset, i rather wait for the official release from whatsapp..

Same here. I activated for around 200+ users and barely got any thanks. Just managed around 10-20.

I would be happy with even zero thanks but lot of users are constantly bugging me every hour, Asking if servers is up or not. Even after i tell them that servers are down they insist that i call them and make sure. And one call is not enough to satisfy them.

Some even saying "please do something" " even after i told them that servers are down and i can't do anything.

Even if my whatsapp status is "sleeping and don't disturb" i still keep getting messages.

One guy gave my number to all his friends, without explaining anything to them and he just told them send text to this number on whatsapp.

His friend's started sending me messages "text". I got lot of them and when i asked that do you want whatsapp calling? They said that they don't know what it is. His/her friend told them to message me so they are just doing it. Some were not that friendly and abusive.

I wrote a long message with how its activated and what to do if its not activated and what to message me but no one reads it. I even send them that as a first message if someone contacts me. But still majority of people ignore it and asks me all those questions which i have already answered and sent them 1 min ago.

From now on i am never helping anyone in something like this.

That is really annoying. Feel sorry for you.

But for me(here in Malaysia) its really different experience. When i said activation closed i get reply like

" i missed my ship." , "its ok" , "nevermind ", "next time".

Really i was more interested in helping them. trying new versions etc. Most of them had no time to play with it. (like cant do, leave it).

after two tries most of them said

"its ok la". "leave it". " i will check root method when free. thanks". "later. thanks", "appreciate your effort ".

if you dont believe u can check out the my thread in that forum/ or screenshot my mobile. Topic view statistics:
