Hi guys,

I just bought myslef a new N9 to replace my old N900. Now, I'd like to migrate my Whatsapp account to the new phone (but still using the same nuimber). I have used Yappari successfully on the N900.

What I did so far:
1. Received a new micro-SIM from my provider. Installed the SIM in the N9 and registered it, so that the old SIM in my N900 got automatically deactivated (tel. number stays the same)
2. Downloaded Whazapp to N9 and installed it
3. Tried a couple of times to register with my number, but it doesn't work. I receive no SMS with the verification code. I also received thefail-too-recent:XXX error and had to wait between the attempts.

I am now a bit worried to get my account banned. Can Whatsapp actually see that I am using a new phone? Do I need to delete Yappari from my N900 first (it's offline anyway)? Do I even need to delete my account and create a new one?

Thanks in advance for your help.
