My Huawei phone is suffering the same disease right now. All the numbers I have used for whatsapp on the phone have been banned. I'm whatsappless right now and have lost my whatsapp account. |

Has anyone been able to resolve a phone that has this issue? Reading through, I understand that the phones were strictly made for use in China. Fireboy02:If I may ask, what do you plan to do? gabicon:Is there a way you can help to resolve this? |

Some of these used Chinese phones have trogans installed in them..which makes WhatsApp to blacklist the ip |

The ban isn't because the phone was stolen or IMEI blacklisted. The reason you are having the ban issue is because of the phone's firmware!!! Whatsapp's systems have flagged the OS as not secure hence the ban. Most likely, the previous user installed a custom firmware. Solution? Get the OEM firmware for that device. Flash it, and you should be available to run whatsapp. |

I also experienced same issue with my Honor 8c device...the reason why your What'sapp is been banned is because your IP has been blacklisted. Probably the first user of the phone used it for fraudulent purpose |

Buy yourself a fairly used Tecno or infinix. I have experienced same before with Oppo, most of them are fake. I had to sell my Oppo to buy Techno Camon 18 to start enjoying Whatsapp again |

That's why it's a fairly used phone and I am sure you bought the device at a rate massively lower than the market rate. The issue you are experiencing now was one of the issues the previous owner had and decided to sell the phone. Don't waste your time, re-sell or accept it as your loss. You have been scammed. |

The simple issue is that the Oppo phone you bought is a clone device from china, the panel of an outdated Oppo device running Android 5 or 6 was put in the body of a more recent Oppo ,the android 5 or 6 is not compatible with WhatsApp hence the ban on the device |

debosalau:I had similar issues with my redmi note 13, what I did was download the zircon global os and installed it on the phone and the problem was solved. I can't remember the steps I took because I asked chat gpt on how to do it and it gave me steps to take, anytime I ran into an error, i just copy and pasted the error on gpt and it solved it. You will require a lot of data to complete this task, like 11gb and of course a laptop. |

The phone is a modified Oppo phone from way back that put in the body of a more recent model,the android system is still like 5, 6 or 7 which is not compatible with WhatsApp,the Chinese are crazy people,but na our Igbo brothers dey import those nonsense clone devices because they are dirt cheap come Nigeria Db1234: |

Hassanmaye:Mine was redmi 7. It's not stolen but the bootloader is unlocked so Google flagged it as not certified. Chatgp app also refused to work on the phone. I tried to relock the bootloader and got it hardbricked up till today. I had to go and get another phone and the WhatsApp started working on the new phone. I even took the bricked redmi 7 to their service center but they said they didn't have the software! |
