Did you get any updates on this? My wife and I are having the same issue since the update on our Z30s.

Yeah known issue there have been several thread about that . No solution for now

The updates just reset the expire clock on the BB app. There is no real development anymore for BB WA to keep pace with the other platforms so anything that gets updated on the Android/IOS app for new capabilities may break the BB WA app. Wouldn't hold my breath on it getting fixed.

I'm facing the same problem. I'm not able to upload any videos to WhatsApp

Have you tried a different version, like the version available using Snap or Cobalt, or downloading the APK directly?

There are a few threads on this topic already here on Crackberry. I don't understand why this issue exists for some and not for others. Is it something in the setup? I updated a couple days ago too and luckily, I have not been affected. I was worried after I read the posts here, so I tested it with a friend and it works.

Not sure what is causing the issue.

no its something in the whatsapp release and i think most if not all users who updated to the latest 16th november update are facing the same issue...

Sadly no, and have even private messaged some fellas here,,,,
the only way we can send videos back if sideloaded a version earlier than the 2.16.76.2
VIDEO CALL AND SENDING VIDEOS WILL WORK AGAIN

not too many threads yet, i have been looking for this native bar file since couple of days now till i gave up


if there is anyone who havent update the whatsapp yet simply can just extract the bar file and SHARE a copy would realy save our lives
atleast till the 30th of june

there will be no fix,,, this update version has been released with this issue, bbworld users are not allowed to share any videos now nor make a video call,,,, thats the only way i get it.


the only solution we get if somebody still using the an earlier version to extract the bar file by sachesi and share it

Yes same issue here

I guess the reason few where not able to send videos is because of the format of the video ur sending try convert to the whatsapp default video format.you may be sucessfull...I had the same problem..the problem lies not in blackberry it is the same in android too
the problem lies in whatsapp accept in default video format only...I guess
