No ideas unless you tell us what your problem is and include what phone model and Android version you use.
 
hey

same problem here

got my S3 a week ago, Whatsapp worked fine up until last night

couldn't send any messages nor receive any (all it showed was a grey clock)

*i don't have a data plan, i just use wifi whenever available

Dunno what's happening. Did a factory reset + reinstall, didn't help

Probably a software problem?
Does anybody know what's happening? Greatly appreciated if someone could tell me what the heck's going on...

go to google and download whatsapp for android on your desktop/laptop then transfer it to you micro sd card and name it whatsapp put it back in your phone and go to my files look up for whatsapp an install it from your sd card that it.
 
Exact same issue with the grey clock! I installed directly from the whatsapp site when I reinstalled...

Tried power down, remove battery etc, no luck :(
 
don't bother doing hard reset, its ineffective.

I hope this is some firm/software problem... and that it'll be fixed quickly..

Sounds like a problem on the server side. And it's Sunday today. So I wouldn't be surprised if nobody will be touching it until tomorrow.

So today may be an excellent opportunity to try out the free app 'MySMS' for free and convenient text messaging via your laptop or desktop machine's large screen and fullsize keyboard. And on your phone or tablet of course.

Enjoy!
 
They posted on Twitter they are doing a upgrade/maintenance on it and it will be down for some time. They should have it back up soon.
I will try to find the tweet and post it for you.


Sorry that was for Tapatalk not Whatsapp. My bad.

Hasn't ever happened with me but a number of things which you can do!
Reboot your phone (power off, power on).
Upgrade WhatsApp to the latest version
Turn Wi-Fi off and back on
Try connecting to different Wi-Fi hotspots.
Turn Airplane mode on and off.
Make sure that data is enabled (Android Settings > Wireless & networks > Mobile networks)
Contact your mobile provider and make sure your APN settings are configured correctly.
Reboot your Wi-Fi Router.
Verify that you receive your Google mail emails on time.
Delete and re-install WhatsApp
Upgrade your Android OS to the latest version for your device.
IF none of it works , i guess wait for a day or two? it might be a problem from their end. :)
