VERIFICATION
NOTE: If you want, you can verify the phone number by using voice verification instead of using text SMS verification and avoid all the resulting verification steps of text SMS

 

After entering the phone number choose “VOICE VERIFICATION” to verify > Click Edit then click OK (without make any change with your number) > You will realize that the SMS verification failed, choose “voice verification” > click “Call Me” > WhatsApp will call you for the code to activate

 

Alternate Verification:

1.Open WhatsApp,

2. Type in your phone number.

3. It’ll send you a text SMS to verify your number. Wait for some time for the SMS to arrive. The SMS can look something like this.
From: 99999

Message: WhatsApp code 984

4. Now, the tricky part is to put this message into Android Virtual Device. To do so we need to open a session with android console on port 5554:
Go to:
a. Start >cmd > right click and open as administrator
b. Type “telnet localhost 5554” without the quotes
c. You should receive a message like:

Android console: type ‘help’ for a list of commands
Ok

Try to send a fake SMS message to the android virtual device by typing this from where you received the sms

for the example above sms send 99999 WhatsApp code 984 and press enter, you should receive a message. Press Ok.

Go to your Android phone, you should receive a message from the mobile number you entered and in it WhatsApp code xxxxx and you’ll receive a WELCOME message on WhatsApp

Step 3: Feed your contacts’ names and numbers on the PC manually

This is the main drawback of using WhatsAppp on your PC where you have to add the names and numbers of your contacts manually in the program because without this step WhaatsApp won’t work. When you finished with this step, you are ready to use the app on your computer. Go ahead and enjoy!
