Hi all,

In the case somebody would be interested as well, here is a summary cooked from various posts here how to read/write Mitakuuluu / Whatsup login and password information. It can be used for moving the account form one client to the other, but use it wisely (thx WhatsApp for random blocking whoever is using unofficial client).

Some time ago, I used Whatsup on N9 to register my account and then was using Mitakuuluu on Jolla. On the other hand, yesterday I did the "inverse" process when I migrated to Whatsup on one of my Jollas. Both times it worked like a charm.

Whatsup configuration file is stored in '~/.config/cepiperez/whatsup.conf'. The login data are:
Code:
[General]
cc=<country prefix>
phoneNumber=<your phone number>
username=<country prefix><your phone number>
password=<password>
kind=free (or any other account type that you have)
To read the Mitakuuluu login data, use a terminal:
Code:
dconf read apps/harbour-mitakuuluu2/account/phoneNumber
dconf apps/harbour-mitakuuluu2/account/password
dconf apps/harbour-mitakuuluu2/account/kind
Analogously, write them by:
Code:
dconf write apps/harbour-mitakuuluu2/account/phoneNumber "'<countryprefix><your phone number>'"
dconf apps/harbour-mitakuuluu2/account/password "'<password>'"
dconf apps/harbour-mitakuuluu2/account/kind "'free'"
Just to make sure, note that I first wrote the " quotes (that's for the shell) and then the ' quotes for the dconf.

I will try to find some time next week and meditate over moving the chat history between the two. In the case, may I a little bit bug you about that, Cepi and coderus?
