Friends, Instagram no longer uses old versions of accounts/login. There is a new login method. Now I am logging in with the new method. Instagram is no longer functional. Those who want to buy my method should contact @phpkertenkele on telegram.
lol, common. Stop spreading false news. And yes they will. I will send them solution
administrators will not be able to solve this. 😃
Hey Everyone GoodNews!
I got the fix, I have tried this 5 accounts. It worked.
You have noticed that when you try to login the same account on instagram app you face the error right?
So I thought it’s an issue from instagram ends. Yesterday someone told in github.
I was randomly trying different method but nothing worked, I tried changing headers but didn’t work.
I tried bruteforcing the login function. My account got logged in after exact 20 request on each of the 5 accounts. I think instagram servers are not getting updated properly but when request 20 times it updates it
Please someone try and let me know. I was constantly working from 24 hours to figure the bug.
UnknownError We couldn’t find an account with the username rezavishkaa. Check the username you entered and try again.
Recently, I am getting this error.
Thank you, is it possible to share this in the Telegram group or here? Since we can’t contact anyone, we can at least use it until it’s updated.
I also encountered this problem.Any idea how to solve it?
Here’s now working just fine. Very odd behavior from the ig server side.
