Did MagicJack change your user and password?

Post by topflight05 »

I've been a mjproxy user for about a year and a half and have had no problems logging in w/o the dongle. Sometime this evening, my ATA could not connect to MJ Servers (401 - unauthorized). Me being foolish, I plugged in the magicjack thinking I could extract the new user/pass but unfortunately it was autoupdated. Is anyone else in the same boat? :(

Seems like it happened to me as well, I had an auto update because my magicjack wasn't working correctly and I needed to pay for another year. Seems like a dumb idea on my part to put in the dongle because I can't get anything to work anymore with or without MJMD5 which were working perfectly for over a year. Any suggestions from the experts here?

Did it stop working before you plugged in magicjack or after? Mine stopped working an hour before I plugged it in (I never plugged it in for a year). Previously, I actually modified the mjproxy source code for my own use at home, so I'm familiar with how it does an md5 hash with the username and password to send login info to the talk4free servers. My worry is that either my username/password changed without me knowing, or that the handshake protocol has changed. Either way, this really sucks :(.

Have not used the dangler for at least a year and all the sudden, ata failed to register tonight. Have not pluged in it yet. It seems whether it is pluged or not, the password will change, even without an update. Hope it is not the case and ata back to work after a while.

I manually scanned the dumps (tools weren't working) and found the password. X-Lite was able to register twice, but it timed out the other few times. Was able to place a call to my work number and played back my voicemail and seems to work. ATA isn't able to connect and debugging that now.

Doh, ATA wasn't working since it was connected to the wrong line :P. It's working again, wohoo. Dunno for how long though.

FYI, password length was the same. And if this helps anyone else, I looked at places where the password was defined and it was defined in four places in my Dump3.txt (YMMV - I got lucky I guess). One place (hope its common for other people) using a Visual Studio regular expression search:

1. Search for (replace XXXXXXXXXX with your number):
EXXXXXXXXXX\nUploaded\nEXXXXXXXXXX

will bring you here:

EXXXXXXXXXX
Uploaded
EXXXXXXXXXX
BlobVersion
ABookProgressNormal
resid:Scripts/AppSettings
resid:Scripts/Profile

2.
and search then for ^[A-Z0-9]^20$ to find a 20 letter password near there.


Other places where I found the password:

a.
RTPBP_DisplayState
PASSWORDWASFOUNDHERE
AudioCodecFilter
talk4free.com
http://render.talk4free.com/msgs/magictalk2035.html

b.
magicJack.Patch
aded
PASSWORDWASFOUNDHERE
Phonebook, Opera, MAPI, Jabber

c.
XXXXXXXXXX \\ phone number
tionAcceptResponseWit
PASSWORDWASFOUNDHERE
resid:Scripts/HTTPRequest
http://magicjack.com/troubleshoot/

d.
HOME,WORK,CELL,FAX
PASSWORDWASFOUNDHERE
/TARGETDIR=%folder:_magicJackPersonalDataRoot%
http://render.talk4free.com/msgs/magictalk2035.html

If it changes frequently, I'll probably end up writing a nightly script to run SIPDump, autonrun magicjack, hope that the password location is repeatable, and then restart my proxy with the new password.

Also something to add here is if your password changed just don't assume that the user name is still EXXXXXXXXXX01 confirm your user name when you pull the password.

This is great info, and I am sure it will be very helpful once I understand it a little better.

Please correct me if I am wrong here. What you are saying is that you opened your dump file and searched it for a 20 character string using a utility/application? If this is correct, what is the name of the utility/application? I'd like to see if I can use the same utility/application to accomplish these results.

I have been using Notepad to open the 5 dump files created by SIPdump.exe, but am getting nowhere, fast.

Thank you!!!

Yep, I started getting 401 Unauth around 10:40 EST last night. Proxy was working great for at least a year. Will report back if the pwd changed and updating the proxy helps. Why does mj gotta mess!?

After a 11-months of use without problem, my SPA-3102 stop work Yesterday! I also renew my subscription for another year. I'm getting this error on my DD-DWRT Router:

"Can't bind listen address (0.0.0.0:5070)" when I run manually the script.

Update: My password DID change. Use genxweb method for finding SIP info and found new password and update on both ATA and mjmd5. Password change was the only updated info!

Confirming that the new Lucky You update is not as bad as earlier versions with rotating pwds.

Had mjproxy on DD-WRT w/ ATA running flawlessly for ~2 months. Found it unregistered this AM and could not make it re-connect by any means. Reluctantly plugged in dongle and let it L.Y. me (like submitting to medieval torture, at least mentally), then just extracted new pwd using SIPdump as before. Back on once again. :P

So this isn't real bad -- yet. As long as it doesn't happen more than once or twice/year.

My MJ via PAP2 quit working yesterday night so I was trying to get it back to work all day today (ok, half a day). I got my password quick from sipdump but still was unable to connect. And after dozen of tries i realized that my id changed from E....01 to E....02 When I changed id in pap2 settings everything is back online. So don't forget to duble check your ID.

Thanks everyone for this forum.

Same here stopped working today so plugged in the dongle to update and then i used magicsipac to get the new password, it was simple and quick.
I used a few proxies but in the used what magicsipac gave me (proxy01.dallas1.talk4free.com) but it all registers perfect and i can call and recieve calls but there is no tone in the phone and its like both sides of the phone are mute. I can't hear or say anything in the phone. I have a ddwrt router with mjproxy and a spa2102 ata.

Plz help me out someone. What is going on.

I initially tried some of the available password extractors and none of them worked, so I used Visual Studio to do regular expression searches. You probably won't have it, so you can do regular expression searches using gVim that's freely availabe:

http://www.vim.org/download.php#pc

After you load your simpdump3.txt, type "/" to begin a regular expression search and type what I posted: EYOURNUMBER01\nUploaded and press enter.

Then do another regular expressoin search, type "/" to begin, then type
^[A-Z0-9]\{20\} and press enter and it should find your password.

If there's no tone, are you sure the call is going through? Out of curiosity, did you change your ATA/software password too, since mjproxy uses it, but so does your ATA/software.

The password changed. Just use sipdump to capture memory blocks during MJ startup. Timing is critical, when you see ad panel on the left is up start dump (4 or 5 will work). Use Notepad++ (you will be impressed compare to notepad) to search sip.connection.refresh, the password is somewhere close to it upper or lower. Mine starts with 6 and it is a 20 characters long string. Have not tried on ata, but I did dump few times and the password are the same. Good luck after Lucky You harassment.

Credit goes to those big bro contributors.

Just an update on my situation.

1. Used SIPDump, (10 dumps or YMMV), made sure that at least one of the dumps happened after the magicjack softphone had registered with the server.

2. SIPDump8-10.txt was the file which had my password and username, didn't show the proxy in domain name form but rather in IP form, regardless used the complete proxy list to find out exactly what the domain name form was. Mine did not changed, but again YMMV
http://www.phoneservicesupport.com/new- ... t8187.html

3. Saw that my username had changed to EXX..X01 to EXX...X02, and that the password had changed, updated that in the MJMD5 software I was running. Restarted the MJMD5.exe. Restarted the ATA.

4. Presto, everything was back up, sucks that the tools don't work anymore, and you kind of have to do this manually, but regardless I got it working again.

Just tested. It works with xlite + MJMD5. So it is just an update with password change, everything should be back to the way it was.

I dumped mine after the update and like everyone else, my username changed from 01 at the end to 02 and the password changed to another 20 char. Updated my pbx with the username and MJMD5 with the new pwd and I'm golden. Hope it keeps working as long as last time around.

Thanks everyone for posting your results.

I'm not able to find the new password. I did 3 dumps and i can see my user still Exxx...01 and the i see the Sip Agent String but i cannot find the password. and none of my dumps contain ^[A-Z0-9]^20$, guess i have to do 10 dumps then. If there a better program better then sipdump let me know(magicsipac doesn't work for me soo it got to be something else).

ATA stopped working last night due to the new update.

Inserted MJ dongle and allowed the update.

Executed MagicSipac to retrieve new password. (MJ number remained the same, ending in 01)

Changed password in ATA & MJMD5.

ATA is working once again :-)

If you're using a router with Tomato firmware

Post by tenby9 »

My pw changed but not my user id. After you've updated your ATA, and if you're also running Tomato on your router with mjproxy, remember to edit your script in Administration/Scripts on the Init tab. Cut-n-paste your new pw at the end of the script line below the sleep 30 line. Save your change and logout of your router.

Also everything works perfect on xlite though.

My username didn't change, my password did. I was unable to find my password using any methods in this thread.

FOR ALL THOSE THAT HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO FIND YOUR PASSWORD, THIS METHOD WORKS:

You need to use Sipdump and you must set it to dump 15 logs... (3 or 4 dosen't work anymore). You need to have as many logs as it takes so that the magicjack software is COMPLETELY done loading and ready to take a call, for me it was 15 for you it may be 10 or 25 who knows.

Use notepad++ to search all files for the following:

SIP.Connection.Refresh

You will find this in every log file, but it will not likely be in any of the first 10 files (for me it was #14 or 15). Look around this area of your username, if you find your username the password should be nearby in its own line, within 10 or 20 lines up or down from SIP.Connection.Refresh, you should be able to spot it quite easily.

Good luck!

Timing is critical for the dump. If you start the dump when ad panel on the left side of MJ window is up. 4 dumps is enough. the password is most likely in all the dump files. This worked year and months ago and it is the same this time, after went through saved dumps.

THANK YOU!!!

The login name changed from EXX__XX01 to EXX__XX02! After 3 hours of tinkering, this little piece of info got it for me. Kudos! :mrgreen:

MagicJack with CISCO VOIP Router still not working

Post by scottexpat »

Hello:
After using SIP Dump. .
- my password was in many dumps and its always the same in different
places of the dump.
- my user name seems NOT to have changed
- proxy server seems not to have changed

I entered the password found in my SIP Dump but did not work
Changed user name to end in 2 as some suggested but that did not work
Tried entering other proxies but that did not work.

Unplugged VOIP router and plugged in dongle. .worked!

VOIP Router stopped working the other day
Previous, it was working and I never used the dongle
Plugged in the dongle after VOIP Router stopped working and dongle
was auto updated.

Any ideas of how to get my VOIP Router working again?

Thanks

Are you running mjmd5 on your router? If not most mj's will not work without it. If you are double check to make sure it's running on your router. I had to reboot my router twice to get mjmd5 to work on it the other day. Also check out the sticky threads for detailed directions on getting this setup.

i should have went into more detail in my post above...

After my ATA, (PAP2T) stopped working, I immediately tried dumping my dongle. After searching for all the "key" terms, and also using mjsip.pl, I could not find any password.

So, I put my dongle in and let it update, and connect. After the update, I used SIP Dump and got 6 dumps. Then used mjsip.pl and my pw was found several times. This was a different password then what was entered in my ATA. Username was still the same; unchanged.

So, I entered the new pw in ATA, and also changed the pw in mjproxy (compiled source to run on my linux server). I then checked the ATA, and it still displayed "unable to connect to login server"...WTF?? So I cycled the power on the ATA, and after about 5 mins, is displayed "online".

So, after entering your new credentials into BOTH ATA and MJPROXY, reboot the ATA, and I'll bet it works.

good luck

Rather then PM, i'll post in open in case someone else has the same Q.

Not sure if the latest MJ update necessitates MJMD5? But, if you've never had to run this in the past, now *may* be your time...

Take a look at the 3rd post in this thread:

Everything you need to know about MJMD5 (also called MJPROXY) is listed. You can run MJMD5 on your router using modified firmware, you can run it in a windows environment, (probably the easiest to test), and you can also compile it to run in any linux dist.

I am in same boat as everyone. I have MJ running via my linksys TMobile router with mj proxy loaded on it. I have been running it like this for over a year.

I guess I need to look for my new password like everyone else has done. The problem is, It's been so long, I forgot how to do this.

Can someone give me a link of a tutorial to find password. I looked in sticky and haven't found it. Also, can you include all of the places I would need to re-insert new password.


Thanks

Is MJ changing the passwords every few days? I just retrieved my new password with MagicSipac 3 days ago and now my ATA in not registering again.

I hope this doesn't happen anymore because it will be very annoying to have to retrieve the password every few days.

Sure looks that way. Up until now, I have NEVER used MJMD5. Now, without it I am dead in the water. With it, I can make/receive calls as usual. The only problem is, I really don't want to dedicate a computer to this.

newtoncd was kind enough to make a guide for setting up mjmd5 on the computer and ATA device here

I know there is a guide on setting it up on a router (not ATA router, but a network router such as my Linksys WRT160N) running DD-WRT, but I have never been able to make it work. I am probably missing a step or something, but not sure.

Has anyone taken a look at this guide to see if it is still accurate? Maybe it requires updating which could be a reason I cannot get it going. The instructions in question are here about the 9th post down.

I'll put whoever helps me get this going into my will. I have a lot of nice stuff that you can get if you are in my will. I have an ear wax collection that nobody can beat. I also have a collection of clothes lint large enough to be able to make a great sweater. Come on, you know you want this stuff!

Looks like my username was changed from 01 to 02 at the end of my number and my password was changed when I had to renew my membership this year and my ATA was working without doing anything special but now I had to setup my tomato running Linksys router to run mjproxy so my ATA would register on the network. it is working fine now but it was tricky. kept thinking I had the wrong pw but confirmed it was right when my siphon app on my iphone connected with no probs.

Password Changing

Post by scottexpat »

Hi:
in comparing yesterday's dump to today's, (put dongle in again) the password is the SAME AS YESTERDAY. So, it doesen't look like its changing. .awsome! But, if the password is not changing, and I know it for usre from the dump and the user name hasn't changed then why can't my Linksys VOUP Phone Router connect to Magicjack? It did until about one week ago. I never used Tomato or any other software. I would rather NOT install software if possible to get it working w/o software again. Don't want to have to rely on PC.

Could someone tell me please technically why it no longer connects if I'm updating password correctly? Did something else change also? Thanks.

Hello Scott:
I've not followed the whole thread but were you able to use your ATA previously without benefit of the MJPROXY program?

There have always been a few stragglers who did not need it BUT recent changes to the MJ system may have eliminated that loophole.
Try using your new credentials with a softphone like zoiper.com and see if it works solo. If not, you should run mjproxy on your local machine and try zoiper again (be sure to change your sip proxy in zoiper to 127.0.0.1).
If that works, try your ATA. If that works, you will obviously need to have the mjproxy fix running.
Simplest way is on your router, provided it can run dd-wrt/tomato.

You should just be thankful you got a free pass on not needing mjproxy til now....
Good Luck

FOR ALL THOSE THAT HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO FIND YOUR PASSWORD, THIS METHOD WORKS:

You need to use Sipdump and you must set it to dump 15 logs... (3 or 4 dosen't work anymore). You need to have as many logs as it takes so that the magicjack software is COMPLETELY done loading and ready to take a call, for me it was 15 for you it may be 10 or 25 who knows.

Use notepad++ to search all files for the following:

SIP.Connection.Refresh

You will find this in every log file, but it will not likely be in any of the first 10 files (for me it was #14 or 15). Look around this area of your username, if you find your username the password should be nearby in its own line, within 10 or 20 lines up or down from SIP.Connection.Refresh, you should be able to spot it quite easily.

Good luck!
It can be found with only 1 dump ;) now that I'm done bragging.

Its very clear that this update is doing clean up to finish the implementation of the requirement of the use of MJMD5 aka mjproxy ect...So if you are a user that has had a password change after 12 - 14 months of uninterrupted service then all I can say is welcome to the party. The tools are there to get your setup and running temporally until you can purchase new hardware to accommodate the proxy to handle the nonstandard authentication process.

Things to know
  • 1. If you password has changed and you didn't need MJMD5 before you do now

    2. If you have more than one magicjack registered an e-mail the User name most likely has changed to end with 02, 03, 03 ect..

    3. MJMD5 can be found here

    4. OS x is still the simplest to find a password

    5. No need to download notepad++ just use wordpad it handles large files quite well.
