Messages "Number is no longer registered/WhatsApp temporarily unavailable/Try again/..." during registration or account operation
Messages like WhatsApp is temporarily unavailable, Try again in an hour or Your number is no longer registered appear after you enter the SMS code and mean the spam filters have fired: in 99% of cases the account is banned. What helps: change the proxy or IP, switch the number service, change DNS via VPN, try numbers from other countries, rebuild the emulator, or register WhatsApp Business instead.
Problem: Messages like "WhatsApp is temporarily unavailable", "Try again in an hour", "Your number is no longer registered", and so on during registration or operation.
What's going on: This error appears after the SMS code is entered and signals that WhatsApp's spam filters have been triggered. In 99% of cases this means the account is banned. If the message shows up right after registration — WhatsApp effectively didn't let you finish it.
To avoid this error during future account registrations, you should change something in your registration approach:
- Change the proxy (or change the IP address that registrations come from).
- Change the service you take numbers from.
- Change DNS — you can do this, for example, by enabling a VPN for the whole emulator (or the whole PC). Your DNS is shown by any service where you can check your IP address.
- Take numbers from other countries and see how registrations go on them.
- Wait a while. Sometimes WhatsApp starts banning a lot at one moment, then it normalizes. Or the service currently has such a batch of numbers and you have to wait for it to rotate.
- Recreate the emulator, change identifiers in it, uniquize it in any way.
- Register WhatsApp Business instead of regular WhatsApp.
