The fix confirmed, for those who failed to activate with that error, try again

The proxy isn't working because hosting.ua is down.

Donate via PayPal at paypal.me/julyighor to support the server. This will help me rent a server in another location. No one has donated this year yet.

Hi everyone. I’m working on a internet browser that will work on old devices, fixing deprecated browser issues.

I need a few testers on Windows Phone 8.1/10 (or other devices with touch screens).

Requirements:
1) You must be located in the US.
2) Send me bug reports and report issues.

Write a message here: t.me/+WO4DBjdqrs1Vvv1I and I’ll contact you.

Hi. This is just a quick reminder. If you tried the proxy but the activation failed, don’t try again. Instead, report it to our chat.

For those who were stuck with the 4-digit SMS code instead of the 6-digit one, I released a fix for that. I never expected it to happen, but it did. You can try again and activate it. Also, it's interesting to see how many of you are affected, so please comment on this message.

Hi everyone!

For those who sent logs and are waiting for fixes, I wish to say I haven’t forgotten about you.

The past few weeks were harder for me than I could imagine.

I am recovering from COVID-19, and now I feel much better, soon I’ll come back to testing the Viber protocol fixes and updating the server.

Hi everyone!

The certificate for the proxy expired. I generated a new one, and no reinstalling of the certificate is required. If you encountered a "network is not available" error, it’s now resolved, so please try again.

PS: no other fixes made today

Hello everyone!

I updated the server, and it should fix activation errors. If you tried to activate before and failed with the error "invalid number," please try again and report the results in the comments. Also, if it fails, don’t try again, report that in the comments or the chat.

Sadly, before reaching 20 attempts, Viber blocked my server IP by CloudFront. I had to lower the limit to 10 per day. I’ll think about what I can do here.

Big thanks to Marcin Rzeszutek for the $7 donation to support Viber Proxy and to Ian King for the $18.62 donation to support the Runtastic Proxy! You two are the only people who donated in 2024, and your support means a lot - it helps me keep these projects alive and running.

UPD: Perica Skaro sent me $10.00, thank you as well!

For context, the total income from AdSense for these services in 2024 has been just $21.33. Every bit of support makes a huge difference.

Thank you both for believing in my work!

Hello everyone!

I made more tests and I think I understand now why some users get error messages and some don’t. I inspected registration requests and noticed that exactly the same request is working for one country code, and not working in another country. Looks like we have to make patches per country. As for my logs, I can see that for the last few months, the proxy did work for users from a few European countries and Japan, other failed. I’ll improve the proxy to make it accept different configurations per country. And together with you, we will make it work in every country!

Happy New Year!

Hi everyone. The hosting I used in Ukraine said they are closing the datacenter on Feb 15, so my known Viber proxy IP will be no longer accessible. I’ll start it somewhere else, and new information will be posted here.

Hi everyone! I just want to announce that I started working on a YouTube video which will explain how to activate Viber on old devices with no proxy!

During that process, I may contact the community in our chat 💬 t.me/+WO4DBjdqrs1Vvv1I for testing purposes.

I’ll post it on my main channel:

During recent tests, I noticed Viber is now returning a new error message:

Status: 116, ErrorMessage: Registration restricted for system

They have made it more difficult to activate Viber now via the proxy.

But the new way to activate it without a server proxy will handle that. It requires a special tool that will be a part of the video instructions.
