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.

Hi everyone, I need some confirmation about Windows Phone. Is there anyone who still has activation and the Viber working?

Hi everyone. Just a quick update. I'm continuing work on a YouTube video, which will explain how to activate Viber on unsupported devices without my server. I don't own Windows Phone devices, so I will contact some of you in chats for private testing. I expect the video to be completed within a few weeks.

Please leave your device details in the corresponding thread of this chat https://t.me/+WO4DBjdqrs1Vvv1I and I'll contact you back once I'm available.

Hi everyone. I wish to tell you that I'm going to publish an open-source version of a proxy server. It will be available to run via Docker for personal purposes only.
I wish to make that project cover more than Viber or Runtastic.
I need your help in creating a new name for the project, so it does not contain Viber or any other brand words in the name.
Please submit your suggestions in the comments to this post.

Hi everyone. Once I did think I had a little more time to solve this, I didn't. I am still overloaded and will get back to it once I can.

Hi everyone, I have some progress. Here is the proxy website: https://apptrustproxy.com
The proxy itself isn't yet public and not made for Viber. Once I complete the project, I'll send here a config file that will add rules for Viber activation so anyone will be able to use it offline.
The project is almost finished, and once I complete the config, I'll make tests with members of the chat: https://t.me/+WO4DBjdqrs1Vvv1I

As you can see, it is a kind of a universal proxy that can work with all devices. I'll make the community able to create rules, patches, and fixes for any services. So the complete config profile can be created and shared by the community. I'll share configs for Runtastic and Viber activation. And together we will fix more stuff!
