SnapChat API "register"

[MartinMeijer1980]

Hello i am trying to add a new snapchat user through the API

I have made my self a form with:

• Username
• Password
• Birthdate
• Email

I'm sending the form and requesting the next code
$SC = new Snapchat;
getHtml::getTagP($SC->register($_POST['gebruiker'], $_POST['wachtwoord'], $_POST['email'], $_POST['geboortedatum']));

I have puted random in that function an echo with text and found out that it stops at the next line of code (rule 190)
if (!isset($result->token))
{
return FALSE;
}

Now is my next question...

• what do i need to configure in this script? (to let it work with the domain of my customer)
• How can u really add a new user?

Sorry for my questions, but i couldn't find much information regarding this

Kind regards,
Martin Meijer

This current version does not have capacha solving built in, which is what
I believe is the problem. Try looking at one of the forks, maybe someone
has figured it out. :)

Euhm... how do you mean this? The request can't past the captcha controller of snapchat...

So if i'm right... i can skip this one and look to it later?

And the uri in the file "snapchat_agent.php" on line 25

Its pointing to "URL = 'https://feelinsonice-hrd.appspot.com/bq';" do i need to keep it like that or do i need to make an own link?

PS: Tanks for your fast reply

Kind regards,
Martin Meijer

[dprogramming]

You have to keep that URL

[MartinMeijer1980]

Thank you

This is helping me out on this way!

[dprogramming]

You're welcome. What do you mean with this: "Euhm... how do you mean this? The request can't past the captcha controller of snapchat...

So if i'm right... i can skip this one and look to it later?"?

[MartinMeijer1980]

Well i can't register a new user for snapchat with this API, its returning nothing

Jorgen told that "This current version does not have capacha solving built in" (i believe he is meaning captcha)

So i'm looking for a way to work around this so i can make new accounts at Snapchat with the api

Sorry that i'm not alway's clear (just a dutchman overhere :P)

[dprogramming]

No problem :P I'm from Belgium so... :)
Yes, he's meaning captcha, that's not included in this project, you'll have to look for it in another fork or project or create your own implementation. I'm looking for it too, so if you have found a way around, let me know ;)

[MartinMeijer1980]

Ok, thanks!

Than i will first go on with the other functions

If i'm ready with that i will look again to solve the register with captcha working

I will post it overhere

Kind regards,
Martin Meijer

[dprogramming]

Great! If you have a question, just post/ask it!

[MartinMeijer1980]

Does someone gets this, it looks like they are explaining how to get a work around

http://www.hakobaito.co.uk/b/bypassing-snaptcha

Can someone verrifie this for me?

Again thanks

[dprogramming]

Hello, this looks a solution to me, I did not test it but I think it's a working solution. It's written by Hako, he has a fork of this repository so... - https://github.com/hako/php-snapchat/ - I don't have time to test it right now but if you do, please post your results here...

Thanks

[MartinMeijer1980]

I'm busy with it now, and have seen that it's still not verry easy

In first he needs now a header.txt

There are only a few new classes in the fork of Hako

This is the code that i'm testing now

    $SC     = new Snapchat();
    $SC->register($_POST['gebruiker'], $_POST['wachtwoord'], $_POST['email'], $_POST['geboortedatum']); 

    $captcha_id = $SC->getCaptcha($_POST['email']);
    // Im not getting an Captcha id... maybe its because the user isn't registering
    echo "captcha? - ".$captcha_id;

    // This is a strange one, i dont get this. I also have an error on this one
    // Warning: fgets() expects parameter 1 to be resource, string given in 
    $solution = fgets(STDIN); // Solution is in binary.

    $SC->sendCaptcha($username, $captcha_id, $solution);

I will keep on testing, but if someone has some time to also look into it, i would appriciate that!

So i have my script like they are telling me on this site (http://www.hakobaito.co.uk/b/bypassing-snaptcha)

But i'm not even getting the first post /bg/register like that... so thats my first problem. Could there be an other reason that i'm not getting the information back like they are telling

Thanks again for your time

Kind regards,
Martin Meijer

[MartinMeijer1980]

Ok its working, i have triggerd some errors in snapchat_agent.php on line 260 is $result = curl_exec($ch);

This contains important information why there something wrong with the post, the password needs to be 8 chars at least and for the rest it works fine :)

Maybe an errorhandler wouldn't be difficult to make...

I now need to work on an other project, i will go further later this day with this script.

Thanks again and if you have questions let me know

Kind regards
Martin Meijer

[dprogramming]

Great, I would want to help you but unfortunately I'm still busy :/ keep us updated..

Thanks

[hako]

@MartinMeijer1980 Did you get it working? I've been kind of busy with some uni work thus unable to update the php-snapchat fork.

Also the captcha_id is only obtained through the dumped headers.txt. (For some reason snapchat sends 401 UNAUTHORIZED if you request the headers.)

[MartinMeijer1980]

@hako i had deleted my snapchat account, i got all the request on the proper way

So after i have registerd my self (i'm not getting an email or sms text so i know it went good). But i have logged in at snapchat site with the emailadress and given password and it worked like a charm

i can't login with the given username only with the given email

so it is possible to register, only the error handling is not given a nice message back, so i need to make that one for my self. And maybe i'm going to make in my script a mail with the information about snapchat

If you have any questions let me know

Kind regards,
Martin

[dprogramming]

Hello again, did you get it working? If so it would be very helpful if you would post your final code here.

Thanks

[MartinMeijer1980]

@dpprogramming it's partial working... i have also downloaded the new fork of Hako

Now i can register a user but....

After i register my self a new account, i only can login on the website of Snapchat but not at the SnapChat app on my Android phone

At the first time it wasn't possible to use the given username (not the email) to login i got a message that the account didn't exists.

Now with the new update in the fork of Hako it's possible to use the username, i can login the website of snapchat. But if i whant to login into snapchat on my android phone it sais "Invalid Account"

I have the feeling that i need to send a SMS to the snapchat phonenumber? At least i can find something like that to do?

Can someone help me to pass this one?

Im going to make a class thats also handeling errors

[MartinMeijer1980]

Now i see that there is standing an old phonenumber of my in the results...

How does they become to my number? It's in this case not a good one!

Kind regards

[MartinMeijer1980]

Even when i use a new emailaddress the request is still getting an old phonenumber of mine... how the * is this possible... i can't find annything whats pointing to that number... verry strange

Some ideas?

[dprogramming]

That's very strange, maybe it helps if you clear your cache, but I doubt. Do you only use a different email address? Or are there other things the same? Can't you still not sign in on the official updated Android app?

[MartinMeijer1980]

Hello,

If you read my posts right... while registering to snapchat with the fork of Hako it's filling in my old phonenumber

My first question is where does he get that phonenumber from? Because it's an old one

I assume when it's registerd an account with an old phonenumber that it's impossible to login to snapchat at my phone with an other phonenumber

I also asume you need to get a text message to activate the account and to verrifie the phonenumber

I need some more information about these steps

[dprogramming]

Normally it should be possible to sign in with another account in the Android app. But I don't think you should get a text message on your phone, at least in the previous versions. Maybe that's changed now, I don't know for sure. Have you tried removing and reinstalling the Snapchat app on your phone?
But in your code you never mention your phone number? And while registering it is getting your old phone number?

[JorgenPhi]

Your account type is [type] => needs_captcha which is why you cannot login
with it.

[dprogramming]

Ooh you didn't solve the captcha? @MartinMeijer1980

[MartinMeijer1980]

@JorgenPhi

I thought it was a working fork...

How do i need to solve this? Is there only a problem with registering accounts?

The strange is i have made an account, because i can login with the emailaddress of the new account into http://snapchat.com i assume tha account has been made OK. Only thing thats not correspending is my phonenumber in the array that i'm getting back.

So if there is a documentation of SnapChat them self i would appriciate that, maybee i can figure more things out.

@dpprogramming Thats true there is standing a verry old phonenumber of mine (JorgenPhi could have been right... but still i want first the phonenumber ok otherwise i cant test this issue)

Kind regards

[dprogramming]

Snapchat doesn't have a documentation, they even don't have an official public API. You'll have to use the captcha to be able to create an account. They don't use captchas that long. Maybe they didn't change their online sign in system to be working without the captcha registration.?

[JorgenPhi]

The other fork has a method to solve captchas, but does not solve it
automatically. You still need to download the captcha image, read it, and
then push the solution.

The $captcha_id is also false... so there must be an other solution to work around this

[MartinMeijer1980]

I cant connect to this link, if this is not going to work than it's impossible to add an account (thats my feeling)

[hako]

What do you mean no download? Do you mean the .zip captcha file?

[MartinMeijer1980]

Or i have the wrong data given through (that is causing the 400 Bad Request and why i dont get the download)

First i must solve the Captcha it keeps givin false in stead of username~digits

The second problem is with the header.txt that i'm having a 400 bad request

[hako]

I tested my fork on ubuntu and was able to download the captcha zip, what OS are you using?

[dprogramming]

I'm getting false too, when using your example on your github fork. I tested on Windows using Xampp server. @hako

[hako]

Not sure if it could be SSL or not, try adding this line:

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);

To the snapchat_agent.php file in the post method.

[dprogramming]

That seems to work, I'll do some further tests, I'll keep y'all updated...

[dprogramming]

@hako , really thanks this does indeed work, the file gets downloaded correctly and the headers.txt file gets generated too. I only have one question, how can I send back the captcha solution that the user has selected? - Thanks

[hako]

You save the solution in a $solution variable (can be like 010001010)

eg, $solution = fgets(STDIN);

then send it off.

 $s->sendCaptcha($solution, $captcha_id, $username);

In the users perspective, for example you could create an array holding 9 0's by default then when the user selects a image with a ghost, one of those 0's should flip to 1.

The only issue is that when you send it (even though the captcha is perfect), Snapchat usually sends back HTTP 403 Forbidden and I don't know why.

[dprogramming]

Oh, so if I get it it's currently not yet possible to sign up?

[dprogramming]

@hako Noticed it too, I get a 403 error too.

[dprogramming]

@hako I was thinking about it and I saw that when registering a new user we get a new zip file with captchas, Right after the solution gets sent the solution gets sent (in the example) but when filling in the solution, it's the solution of the first zip, not the newly downloaded one..? #JustGuessing

[hako]

@dprogramming Really? I don't think I noticed that, but thats the only problem the 403. I've signed an account using the real app and checked the headers, cookies URL encoding and I'm not sure whats missing.

[dprogramming]

@hako Like on this image, the first zip file is made when registering. The second when running again.
So, I mean this: (because after reading my previous comment it looks like I made some typos and I don't think it was stated clearly :-) )

1. Run the registration functions (register($email,$password,$birthday); and register_username($email, $username);)
2. Get the captcha (getCaptcha($username, true);), The captcha gets downloaded
3. Solve the captcha manually and fill in the $solution value
4. Run the script again with the $solution filled in
5. There gets downloaded a new zip file with new captcha images

This seems obvious to me, I'm not sure if you're doing it like that, but when doing it like stated above you should set the $solution value with the solution value of the newly downloaded captcha and not the old one like in step 2.

[hako]

I'll give this a shot but could this be why the 403's keep appearing?

[dprogramming]

I think this can be a possible problem because every time the Snapchat API sends out a new zip file with a new captcha and thus a new solution. When sending a wrong solution maybe the Snapchat server reacts by sending a 403 error? What does the official app respond when selecting wrong captcha images?

[hako]

403

[dprogramming]

Then this can very well be the problem, don't you guess?

[hako]

Ack, @dprogramming I'm still getting 403, this is what I'm doing:

1. Run the script
2. Run the Register and register_username functions
3. Get the captcha
4. Manually solve the captcha
   403.

Are you telling me that I have to save the first solution value for the second time I run getCaptcha?

[dprogramming]

@hako no, I think that's the thing that's going wrong. What do you do after step 4? Do you run the script again but now with the first solution value filled in?

[hako]

After I get the 403 from the first try, I rerun the script with the first solution and still get 403.

Did you test this?

[dprogramming]

@hako That's exactly what I mean, when rerunning the script with the first solution you get 403. We should do this:

• Get the zip with captcha
• Solve the captcha manually
• Send the solution without requesting a new zip file and thus a new solution

[hako]

Ok, I've created a separate file for sendCaptcha and getCaptcha (without requesting a new zip file)

I ran getCaptcha once and got the zip
I typed in manually the captcha
I send the solution without requesting another zip file

And now I get a 401 Unauthorized.

[dprogramming]

Maybe it has something to do with the authentication key? Maybe you need to have the same key when creating the username, requesting the zip etc. as when sending the solution?

[dprogramming]

At least the changes you made make clear that this was an issue too... I guess

[dprogramming]

@hako Have you already found what's wrong?

Thanks

[dprogramming]

@hako already a solution?

[Snowlav]

Very old topic but I'm going to reply anyway,
I have the same phone number when sniffing /loq/register_username.
And I am from Holland as well.
