Me too, if i don't open the application i won't know that there is a new message, no notifications
I have paid for the application (annual sub). i wrote to the developer to no avail.

turn off battery saver, allow background task for whatsapp, if you are using a WiFi network then allow WiFi to run under lockscreen. Also, under ringtones and sounds, check the box for "all other notifications".

I dont know whether this has been asked.
1. Is there's any way to forward a message to various contacts at one go?
2. Can't we mark multiple chats to delete at once, instead of deleting them one-by-one?

I am not sure somebody asked this question here before.

Whatsapp doesn't notify me when someone sends a message. I come to know only if I open the app. I faced this problem countless number of times. I used to switch off my cell phone and restart it then later watassp used to notify me. But since past two days even after restarting my phone whatsapp doesn't notify.

How to correct it.

Its not possible to attach and send already existing videos in my gallery. I can just forward videos which i have received or i have to shoot one from within whatsapp. Whatsapp for Android/iOS/Symbian allows to attach and forward videos from gallery.

also allows to save the videos you receive and share by email or other forms.... in wp you can only share received videos do others in whatsapp( no saving and sharing other ways)

Hi! I got this problem about 3 weeks ago, and I sent this to WhatsApp support, but they haven't reply to me.

Short story: I restarted my phone, and went to WhatsApp before SIM-card got "registered" to network. I had the lifetime free-version of WhatsApp, because I downloaded it before it went "paid" in WP. But now, WhatsApp asked my number again and sent new code. Now it says that I have that 7? months free only. Sorry for my bad English, hope you will understand.

It's not a whatsapp bug... it's a windows phone limitation that doesn't expose the programming interface to do so. It's Microsoft's fault.

For your kind information, I can access gmail but not facebook. Thats all. PLEASE HELP :(

That depends on how knowledgeable your IT guys are and what software/devices they are using to control internet access at your office.

Either way I don't recommend trying to bypass it as it's easy to spot and can get you into a lot of trouble.

Is Microsoft doing anything to correct this bug/limitations..?

Nothing has been officially announced by MS, but they should remove the restrictions in either GDR3 (Unlikely) or 8.1 (Probably)

I really hope that they will remove this ridiculous restriction in the next update (GDR3) It's so annoying that one cannot post videos to Facebook via WP or send videos in Whatsapp from phone itself

are whatsapp chats stored in whatsapp server? There is an option to backup chats - If I factory reset a 710 and re-install whatsapp will all the chat history come back?

Sadly no. Its only useful when you want to re install thew ap. The chat logs area are stored in your phone not on cloud.
