Hello,
I bought HTC Desire C from UK about couple of weeks ago and unlocked it using the IMEI based service so my dad can access it in India.
Problem I have got is, now I cannot install whatsapp on the phone it always comes back with the error "Your device isn't compatible with this version error".
Below is the phone information:
Android Version: 4.0.3
HTC Sense Version: 4.0
Software Number: 2.01.401.6 (I think this is ROM version and it's STOCK ROM because I haven't flashed it)
HTC SDK API Level: 4.21
HTC Extension Version:HTCExtension_403_1_GA_9
Kernel Version: 3.0.16-g34e63f6root"abm032 (hash)1
Baseband Version: 10.17.98.09H_1.19.98.02
Network information is all okay because I can see operator name, signal strength, service state etc.
Can someone please help me with this because I really want to install whatsapp in next couple of days before I go back. Thank you.
P.S. I haven't rooted my phone or anything and to be honest I don't want to root it because I'll be going back to UK in few days and my dad is quite new to smart phone so it will be difficult for me to do anything like this.
Solved
I downloaded whatsapp from whatsapp.com/android and installed the apk file and it worked.
same problem here. download-link at the whatsapp-website brings me to the play store. there appears same notification (not compatible with this device... )

Go to play store on phone not the website and install just in case your on a pc logged in on a different user and not the specific phone user account Google account. Strange your getting problems as it does work fine.

If you have to switch ROMs, flash a Stock ROM and Stock Kernel!
Even though it worked with Maximus HD 5.0 for me.

I've downloaded the same exact one from the web site 3 different times, I tried e-mailing, but gmail & other web based e-mail providers do not allowed files bigger than 25mb. But I downloaded the apk off of theroot.ninja 3 different times and same error with each test.

upload it to google drive or dropbox, and email me the link.
Try it on mobile network, or a different wifi network.
Works perfectly on Android Revolution 8.0.
Did not reboot at end. Waited 10 mins and then rebooted manually.
Thanks.

Custom roms with bugs drive me nuts.
Hey guys,
I have an HTC One M8 831C Sprint ( Android 6.0 ). The device was bought from USA. Right now Im in India. When I put on any SIM card it will say "Invalid SIM Card: 4G services are unavailable as the sim/uicc is invalid.". I saw some posts regarding how to unlock lollipop devices. Can someone help me in unlocking the marshmallow version? Any help would be appreciated.
Hello, follow this tutoriales, if the insertcoin rom don't work, use any other Android 4.4 rom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-htc-one-m8/general/sim-unlock-s-off-t3072722
The current android version is marshmallow. Will that create any problems?
