Hi,
WhatsApp can't connect on SailFish 2.0.0.10 after Profile name step : "Unable to connect. Please try again later".
Can you help me ?

I have uninstalled Android Support, then did this in terminal:
rm -rf /data/dalvik-cache/*
as seen here: https://openrepos.net/content/schturman/dalvik-cleanup-u-20010-only
and installed Android Support again.
Then Whatsapp started.
Note: Removing cache may have been unnecessary, so I'd try just uninstalling and reinstalling Android Support first.
This didn't work for me, I'm still getting this error with the latest version directly downloaded from whatsapp.com
But I also didn't enable contacts access for Android apps as I don't want WhatsApp to upload all my contacts. Signal works fine without contacts acces, so why doesn't whatsapp?

On a Jolla 1 with 3.0.2 I needed to active Contacts access (In Settings > Android support) to initialize Whatsapp.

It happened to me also. I decided to reinstall whatsapp because it started crashing. After removing and installing it again I get that "Unable to connect" message.
