Neopets Mobile does not refer to the 2021 interface of the website, but the 2006 flip phone application that has long been discontinued.

Attempts to reverse engineer the long-defunct API

TODO (The jars are all minified, but perhaps I can extract the API URLs from them and document what the application expects to get back)

The META-INF/MANIFEST.MF for the Nokia 6280 version specifies a Java version of 1.4.2_04.

The decompiler used is quiltflower: https://github.com/QuiltMC/quiltflower and the javax.microedition classes were copied from https://github.com/mcpat/java-microedition-libraries

Nokia 6280 V02.30.00 (en) Singtel

m.java contains two calls:

The session check appears to return one of the following values, with anything else as a failure code of -1:

Response Treated as ID
SUBSCRIBED 1
UNSUBSCRIBED 2
REVOKED 3
SECURITY 5

Nokia 6111

m.java contains one call:

Getting sample network requests

  1. Install Kahvibreak
  2. Edit /path/to/Kahvibreak/Software/win32/KLaunch.bat
  3. Change echo NetworkNotAvailable=true>>property.txt to echo NetworkNotAvailable=false>>property.txt
  4. Edit /etc/hosts
  5. Add 127.0.0.1 npprod-singtel.in-fusio.com
  6. Add 127.0.0.1 npprod.in-fusio.com
  7. Run something on port 80 that listens to /data-np/
  8. Launch Neopets Mobile from Kahvibreak
  9. Try to login

Logging in

Reverse engineering the format

I've been renaming symbols in the decompiled source code to slowly figure out what the application is looking for as a response.

The response seems to use the same data structure as the request: a form-encoded set of key-value pairs, then a newline, then some sort of binary data structure.

Shorts seem to be big-endian. Strings seem to be delayed until the end of the structure.

The game ID is hardcoded to 11061 and the center is hardcoded to 61.

After the form data and newline, the structured data looks like this:

Offset Type Meaning
0 short Tag
2 int Length-derived value: 8 * (2 + n + m)
6 short number buffer len + 2 (n)
8 bytes number buffer
n + 8 bytes string buffer
m byte 0xFF, end of structured data
