Whisperfish
Whisperfish is an advanced but unofficial Signal client. Whisperfish should be in a usable state for many users, but is still considered beta quality software; make sure to always have the latest version! Also, check our Wiki and feel free to contribute to it! Currently, mimimum supported SailfishOS version is 3.4. We intend to keep compatibility with 3.3 for as long as humanly possible. The build for SailfishOS 3.x is located in a separate OpenRepos application.
Do not ever contact the Signal developers about a Whisperfish issue. You will annoy them and make them dislike us. Contact us instead (see below).
Known issues and implemented features
Lot's of stuff should work. Check the forum for an up-to-date known issues list.
Contribute: get in touch, report issues and translate!
If the app behaves strangely or slow (I have a strong dislike for slow software) to you, please get in touch on Matrix #whisperfish:rubdos.be or on Libera.Chat #whisperfish, file an issue, or send an email to whisperfish [at] rubdos [dot] be, or post on the SailfishOS Forum topic. If it works well already, alse let me know! That's good for morale.
Development and progress
Follow the progress of the rework in the 0.6 milestone on Gitlab. If you are interested in contributing, contact me on Gitlab. If you want to discuss development, join the discussion on Matrix #whisperfish:rubdos.be.
There are nightly builds (in form of RPM) available on Gitlab. Nighlies eat batteries for breakfast, break up with your girlfriend, and use magic to turn phones into bricks. If you want to use them, please come and chat on Matrix or IRC. Whenever there is a version that makes sense, and has a low probability of tearing apart the very fabric of the universe, it'll be here on Open Repos!
Donations
Thanks for the support, feel free to buy me a coffee! Liberapay allows for donations via PayPal or credit card. While I do appreciate the donations, please consider matching your donation towards Signal themselves. They need it more than I do, now more than ever! Also consider donating to Weblate, because they provide their translation hosting service to us and many other SailfishOS applications at no cost!
Licence note
The original Whisperfish 0.5.0, by Andrew, was released under GPLv3+. Since we are using the upstream code of Signal themselves, partly licensed under AGPLv3+, the whole of Whisperfish 0.6.0 falls under AGPLv3+.

- Fix creating debug symbols in CI and offline, run LTO on CI. Debug symbols are now hosted alongside nightl RPMs (and probably also here, let's see how the CD copes)
- Add new config paths to MyBackup paths
Whisperfish 0.6.0-beta.8
A bunch of quality-of-life updates, and SailfishOS 4.4 compatibilty! Direc85 did a lot of work in this release. If you consider donating to me for Whisperfish, please also consider buying direc85 a coffee.
Changes
- Display reaction emoji correctly
- Compute and show safety numbers.
- Collection of small UI improvements, thanks to direc85

Isnt amazing that anytime there is an update is so much work to do to make the app work properly again? Isnt a collaboration to make it work smoothy from Jolla?

By the way: I'm in contact with some people at Jolla. I hear that some Jolla people are even using Whisperfish, which means I'm aware of some bugs before the EA releases (but often difficult to fix without hands-on, such as the 4.3 OpenSSL breakage).

It's the idea that Jolla should be making sure that a minor version upgrade doesn't break any app. I agree with Slava's sentiment on the breakage between beta 6 and beta 7 here. Jolla should have carried OpenSSL 1.0 throughout the 4.x series, formally deprecating it and alerting app developers that it would be gone in 5.x series, instead of just dropping this bomb.
That said, all previous breakage was 100% due to me abusing undefined behaviour of the SailfishOS operating system. All those hacks are gone now (since the event-loop rework and the SFDK rework), and there's only a few undocumented APIs that we use (but existing APIs, not undefined behaviour). These undocumented APIs include our rendering of the reCAPTCHA (which is now stabilized in 4.3) and retrieval of contact names by phone number in the GUI.

For anyone having issues with beta 7 (latest, as of writing) on SFOS 4.3.0.12, I found a workaround. Unfortunately, it's intrusive:
This procedure works flawlessly on my Xperia XA2 Ultra. I went through it twice to make sure it was repeatable. I'll be happy to help if anyone needs assistance. I'm sure this will be ironed out in future Whisperfish releases, but for now this gets us both the latest SFOS and latest Whisperfish with minimal hassle. Good luck!
Edit: It seems this method breaks my SIM contexts for MMS, no idea why. journalctl is unhelpful, and mmslogger provides exactly nothing. Fresh flash to either 4.3.0.12 or 4.2.0.21 results in MMS working as normal. I'll try to figure out a way to get beta 6 installed on 4.3.0.12, register then update to beta 7. Will update as it comes.
Edit #2: Okay, so I finally figured out how to keep ofono working properly, have SFOS 4.3.0.12, AND have the latest Whisperfish:
This is the ONLY way I've gotten it to work correctly. If you install beta 7 first, it'll crash when it's supposed to display the captcha. I hope this helps someone.

Note that the hard dependency on OpenSSL 1.0 (which is not in SailfishOS 4.3.0) has been resolved by the Beta-7.
And do not permanently enable the lpr_A7 repository, that is likely harming your SailfishOS installation sooner or later. Preferably use the last OpenSSL packages from Jolla, which still contain OpenSSL 1.0 (from SailfishOS 4.2.0), they are installable and removable without issues, plus offered in a single purpose repository, which will not affect the integrity of your SailfishOS installation: https://openrepos.net/content/openssl111102/openssl-111-102

Please note that your phone number is readable in this log, you may want to edit this.
402 payment required means that you need to file a CAPTCHA. Signal abuses this status code. Don't you see a CAPTCHA? If not, please do state your full SailfishOS version and which device you use, because this is supposed to work fine.
If possible, it would be a lot easier if you could file an issue on Gitlab.

Hi, I had the device linking to signal.desktop working, but as I started the desktop client again after a long while, it wanted to connect to my device again. That didn't work, so I upgraded the desktop client, and now the URI format in QR code has changed from tdevice: to sgnl: and Whisperfish no longer recognizes it.

as rubdos has mentionned: you need to switch to upgrade to version beta.6 as he has reqrote even handling code.
(also you need to kill any version beta.5 still running in the background. So either use your favorite tool for killing apps or simply restart the phone after the beta.6 upgrade and before trying to tun it).

This pages says:
But currently only beta.5 is showing here.
And on the Gitlab page, beta.6 is available only for 486 and Aarch64.
I guess something broke in your CI/CD system?
Note: If I am not mistaken, it's the exact same commit as nightly "dev.b1615.3e46652", so I guess I could use that.
