Hi everyone! I’ve created an app to use WhatsApp on older Android 4+ devices, tested on Android 4.1.2.

It runs directly on the phone, without a PC or external server. It supports text messages, photos, profile pictures, voice message playback and notifications. The interface automatically follows your device’s language.

Version 0.11 adds a Contacts section, with search and tap-to-open chats.

How to use it

1. Install the APK and start the connection.
2. Enter your number with the country code and generate a pairing code.
3. On your main phone’s WhatsApp, go to Linked devices → Link a device → Link with phone number and enter the code.
4. Wait for synchronization to finish.

This is an unofficial, experimental project. Compatibility may vary between phones.

If you try it, let me know your phone model and Android version!

ADB is not work

Why this subreddit community doesn't comment on some posts? Please help.

She ain't pretty, but she's a fighter: LG G4 (H815) with UsU secureboot exploit, Arctic MX-6 repaste, running Android 11 through a dying display with somehow full touch working (New screen incoming next month!)

Can this maybe help port proprietary mediatek stuff? Or is the device tree still gonna have weight?

Tomorrow I will add emoji support. The calls failed because the new calling library requires newer Android versions; the minimum requirement is 4.0, and it has all the languages I was able to compile.

I'm the developer of Sidstuga. If you're setting up an Android device for media, it can connect to Plex, Jellyfin, Emby, WebDAV or your own playlists.

Phones and tablets have a touch layout; Android TV uses a remote layout. The player shows source details and has audio selection and subtitle timing controls. Older devices vary in Android and codec support, so compatibility depends on the device.

heloooo ppl of android after life i was wondering if any one had any old ice cream sandwiches roms with htc sense on like say fallout 5.0 or desire xs?? or any roms that would work on m old phone and is possibly still skeuomorphic

What should I do with this phone?

Charging port no work :( (Edit: I don't have a soldering iron which means I can't replace the port)

I'm thinking of not adding call support because it's too complex, but I'll try voice-only calling later. There's a bug in the emoji rendering (in Hangouts), but it works normally on the keyboard (if you don't mind, the bug doesn't render emojis on the Hangouts emoji keyboard, but it renders them normally in the message box). The option to change ringtones isn't ready for the app yet (only calls and support for sending video and image messages), but text messages still work normally (and I'm thinking of adding audio messages) I intended to launch a Reddit revival, but to do that I would have to disable logins and leave it only on the old Reddit compact without login, since Reddit discontinued the client ID. However, this doesn't mean it's impossible because I'm going to try reverse engineering it (using the API of the newer Reddit app and adapting it to the current Reddit API; it will be time-consuming, but not impossible). After that, I'll move on to Google Play Magazines and Play Music.
