helo , pls teach me how to get whatsapp to work in china?

using android

which free vpn best?

opera vpn

serious mou? opera vpn can use whatsapp? means browser whatsapp?

express VPN last i heard is working, fb pun bulih

dont knw.. u ask for free vpn.. opera is one of thm..

Wechat

buy the china sim card

i remember is got a cute logo

if not mistaken China & Hong Kong Unicom Travel Prepaid Sim Card


i use 7 days no problem ( even connect their wifi i also can use fb i dunno why, just weird )

u went china recently?

i google for some info, apparently can use whatsapp, but sneding video and image cannot? only text.. betul ah?

hahaha okok tak pe

serious mou? go to search and install it.
Use brain.

well i'm currently working in china for 4 months.

for short term you can try
expressVPN or turboVPN

for long term, im using the paid service for expressVPN
so far so good.

whatsapp sometimes works, but most of the time it doesnt.
FB doesnt work at all.

If u use data roaming its ok...local sim not sure...coz i just use office line with data roaming
All fb, messenger and everything function per normal

I am typing this while in Shenzhen.

Whataspp can only send text, images and video are sometimes disabled. Connection drop.

Im using ExpressVPN, it is bloody good, will auto-reconnect in the event of connection drop.

Pay for it, free VPN is slow, might as well dont use it.

nice , now i know which vpn is good

i will use data roaming, but they will use the local telco's network right? ur office line connect to which local telco?


noted on ExpressVPN

u say whatsapp can send text, thats all i need actually. Will connection drop even if send text?

so USA is evil or China?

Long term can consider Express VPN. They got 2 server based in Hong Kong.

Been using it for 1 year now. Both laptop and phone. can use 3 account at same time.

If u want extra 30days free u can use my referral link below

https://www.expressrefer.com/refer-friend?r...erral_dashboard

It's either super slow, or you won't receive the msg at all. Like other commenters above, video and audio is a no-no, unless you open VPN.

Also, no google, reuters, bloomberg, cnbc, gmail etc.

yea last 2 weeks

u use this simcard, u wont regret

no la i even call my mom video call lol

use this sim card no problem, i went china wuhan. You?

Going guangzhou

ok la i think about it , either VPN or maybe need prepare extra phone to put the simcard then hotspot

i see... thanks for the info ya

oh then sure no problem

but if u buy this sim u prepare vpn la

i first time go i scare, so i download 5 different vpn

at the end uninstall all cause the sim already can haha

buy daily social pass or 30days pass.
no vpn require.

What u mean ya? Can explain how to buy the daily social pass?

Use New Whatsapp

Protonvpn, from the well known Swiss email provider protonvpn. Most free vpns are riddled with ads and security loopholes. This one is free, unlimited bandwidth and highly secure and private.

Also using vpns in china is illegal and can be prosecuted if you are not lucky

Digi roaming

hotlink international social pass，please google.

Whatapps seems work, but not reliable.. Cannot expect receives message on time perhaps delay few minutes

Last time I went Beijing for vacation, received whatsapp from manager asking about work.
Wtf bbq mang.

Two months ago my bro went to China.
Whatsapp sometimes work, sometimes don't.
Ended up I installed wechat to communicate with him.

And they said here in MY everything gov block


Hahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahaha hahahahahaha

I travel to China twice recently, and in both times I roamed using China Unicom/China Mobile via Celcom & Maxis (I have 2 lines). I can use my FB app and Whatsapp with no issues.

I think the issue here is if you use local China simcards? You won’t face any issues if you roam using your own number from Malaysia.

Thanksss. Very useful info

Noted.

Alright

TS turun china sbb nak cari duit raya nih,.

WTF?! Seriously bro?? Go search Google play store la adoiii.. 😵😵

Hmm that could explain why.

I use china sim card with vpn can't receive whatsapp instantly.
few hours later only received

but facebook no problem at all

Roaming best

i used BolehVPN in SHanghai and connect to Sgpore server
whatsapp fb all can .. but abit slow

Just came back from vacation in China.

Tried and tested two VPNs that confirm can work there.

Vypr VPN and TunnelBear VPN. Express VPN also can use (and the best VPN in China actually) , but unfortunately I can't use cos I already registered for account before this trip and they detected my device and the free trial is over.

Vypr VPN would be more consistent than TunnelBear.

However, do note that both VPNs have free data limit (1gb and 500mb respectively).

If you use it for basic daily WhatsApp / Facebook / Gmail / Google, should be enough for your vacation / trip.

Do note that I bought a China Unicom sim card to use there.

For roaming with local Maxis / Digi / etc carriers not sure whether can bypass the firewall there. Seems like can from previous replies.

Edit: Opera VPN and Turbo VPN doesn't work at all.

Use VPN to bypass the firewall. You can checkout the website below where they tested which VPN works the best in China.

Damn i left "NO" before issue

Ohh so no issue.. Hahaha

Digi roam like home

Wow lucky u mentioned. I Only need to top up rm10 for 5gb roaming data in china! Niceeee

For future reference:

Whatsapp, insta, fb works fine with malaysia sim card with data roaming. No vpn needed.

TS, you bad bad luck.

OperaVPN just retired on 30/4/2018.

Luckily my return flight from China also 30/4/2018. Hehe..

Malaysia SIM card with data roaming, no problem at all. We can access the same way like Malaysia. I tried this last month.

Oh? Lucky didn't need vpn.. Cos i using data roaming with digi. The 'roam like home' plan so worth ittttt

you can try out loyomobile
they offer great package to go online and can access whatsapp in China
i have been using their SIM card since the past 2 years in China and it worked fine for me

the url is https://www.loyomobile.com/
their customer service is fast too, can consider bro.

hey ,how is your experience in using the digi roam like home in china?

Is the speed ok? Is that subscriptions is for a month?

If u r roaming , Facebook , WhatsApp all will be working

Can loyomobile allow us to access whatapps and fb?

Private Internet Access. PIA

subscription is for a month, so before u go u jus activate it. Then u unsubscribe after you back.

Speed was ok, enough for social media

Ah i see... if i go china on 13 March to 13 April. will it charged be on proration basis?

Activate on 13 March and use it till 13 April?

Hmm i not sure, but i think is follow statement date..

from what i know, yes they do have package for you to be able to access FB and whatsapp.
you can ask their customer service for the package.

Get this one no need vpn

Thanks but i used digi roam, no need vpn hehe

Then y u asked for what vpn to use???

Mean I need to subscribe for March and April 2019.

RM 35+ Rm 35= RM 70

So must i walk to the digi store to activate it before i go china?

Yup must walk in to activate

Look at the dates... This is old thread

😔

Thing is this is what I don’t understand. You can get notifications from FB, insta etc but you can’t access the app proper. I haz a confuse.

For roam like home package,

How do we check if we have exceeded the limit of internet/call?

Will we get notified by SMS?

I think RM 35 for a month is cheap!

if i rmber correctly, u can check via the DIGI app. make sure u download it

Sorry for bringing up an old topic I am planning to visit China next month. Is Whatsapp still blocked there?

if you just go there for a week... use digi roaming, 3 days rm25..

every apps will function normally

China just banned their own citizens..

lol yes i did that
