If you were to run a VPN through a 4G mobile proxy showing the 4G IP , is that any effective?
Using 4G Proxy to target TikTok US failed
Not yet but I will have tested the new set up tomorrow and the day after
My bad, there is no "4g-Residential" proxy, I meant either a 4G proxy or a residential one
I'm probably too much of a noob to run this through my head but in my logic this would be pointless as it wouldn't matter which IP first connects to the proxy as your IP will be masked by the proxy afterwards in any scenario (correct me if I'm wrong)
If you're thinking about encrypting your data/traffic before connecting to the proxy this might be effective? I honestly don't know

You have to test some other proxies.

I figured, I gotta get some high Quality static isp as well.
Have you tried embedding the proxy in your phone directly yet?

Hey so how is the research going, have you figured some proxy setup that is working for tiktok?
Not sure what you mean by embedding, I have used the proxy as described in one of my previous messages, simply configured it within the IPhone's wifi settings
I'm currently in the process of finding a reliable proxy provider, I've went through some so far and on all proxies I've had performance issues so I didn't test the set-up itself yet.
I'm hoping to be done with this by tomorrow but the back and forth with the supports is time consuming
Just to update the thread here,
I have managed to find a proxy provider after testing several which services I can use and am happy with,
I managed to get an IPhone with an older IOS of 16 to test if SIM method truly doesn't work (On Iphone) anymore .
This means in the coming days I will have tested these in order:
SIM method (If fails) > Mobile Proxy 4/5g Method.
I'm currently very busy with work and can't promise you when i'm done with theses tests but again,
I will update this thread with the results.

Well this is very good info, thnx for the it anyways.
Which method are you using to set up the proxy on your iphone?
Shadowrocket will be the first thing I try
Hey,
I've tested the SIM only method again with an IOS under 16 and it failed,
I was going to test the proxy method days ago already but I am having Issues with creating Apple ID's.
I can no longer create or login to my Apple ID's on multiple of my devices because I made them with temporary phone numbers
and since Apple requires two factor authentication I have no other choice but to go through the recovery process or get another phone.
This will for sure take multiple days until I can even attempt my proxy method at all
I think additional to sim you should buy a router and route the proxy from pc to your phone this will allow you to bypass getting detected by tiktok

So if I use gologin mobile browser with + SIM I can target US audience from anywhere in the world?
Here's how I do it everytime. Use US sim (or change buildprop values for it + mccmnc), US IP, change timezone and language (not fully needed but helpful), and clear data before opening app again because that's when TikTok first checks your region info. Also, you should probably make a new account when doing this.
Quick Update
I have tested multiple things the past days including a 5G proxy + US SIM on an Iphone SE 2020.
Initially (today) I thought I was shadowbanned as my video reached 0 views and I was unable to get a verification code for some reason.
I tried like 15 times to verify my E-mail which is also,not very normal behaviour on an account and was unable to receive it in any way,
My video didn't get pushed initially but as I checked right now it was gaining views so I am not shadowbanned just yet.
Obviously this is not ensuring that my Method is completely save, I also realized one weakness:
most if not all mobile and residential/static proxies will result in a TCP/IP - Useragent mismatch.
Most of the proxies will not mask this by default but as I don't know if TikTok does something with that Information. this will be just a side note for now.
Now here to the immediate results Day1:
I bought Shadowrocket using Apple Store balance charged by a Gift card
I used Shadowrocket as my Proxy program to setup the 5g Proxy.
I was able to create a Tiktok account without any problem, swipe and use the app normally unlike the last time when I configured my proxy through the wifi settings.
I warmed the account for 2-3 Hours as I don't believe in warming the account for multiple days.
The audience on my Video was 99% US and 1% mexico showing that the Method at least will push to the US
The most important question obviously will stay unanswered for a while
Will this method result in a shadowban?
For me I can comfortably say it won't after the account will survive at least 60 days.
So this means this test (hopefully) will be a long lived one.
I will update this thread as I gain any new information I deem worth sharing or the setup failed.
In the best case scenario I will connect this Method to my next test In which I will see if I can verify with a non-residential LLC for the CRP program.

Hey, just wanted to say that I've also been trying to crack this for weeks and also found the method of shadowrocket(bought with gift card) + mobile proxy. I've tried both SIM card / no SIM card, but I'm still getting shadowbanned. (Zero views, unable to follow, able to like, able to view US content).
Questions:
1) How many views are you getting on your video right now? From my experience, anything below 1k views is still considered a soft type of shadowban as they've placed a limit on how far your content can be pushed.
2) Do you use email to create the account? Because I create my TikTok account with US Apple ID as it was what made it work for me in the past, at least better than email.
3) Also, which site are you getting your mobile proxy from? I suspect it could be the quality/stability of my mobile proxy, so I'm still testing out some options.
4) Do you connect to home wifi with the mobile proxy? Or connect to a second phone's hotspot with mobile proxy?
Or does anyone here know if it's possible for TikTok to recognize and ban the phone itself maybe via IMEI number or other methods like device fingerprint, even after factory reset?
1) Can't really answer that yet I don't have posted enough yet but 1k or even lower is IMO 100% no soft lock or shadowban, look at your metrics and determine wheter 1k views is fair or not, If you're getting 35s avg watchtime with 25% watched all High comment/share ratio and a 1k Video then, I'd belive this claim but so far I have not seen a single Video with good metrics and bad views.
2) Yeah I use e-mails
3) don't really want to namedrop that here (I can dm if you want) but I also don't see the point of asking since I have tested the method for a mere 3 days, If my proxy was going to eventually shadowban me (or not) then you wouldn't even know by only 3 days of testing
4) Yes I connect simply through my Wifi with shadowrocket to the proxy.
I personally think tiktok can flag devices as it has happened to me before, I already own multiple burner phones and after creating too many accounts on one device you're accounts will be shadowbanned by default
If you are using the same device that already has had mutliple shadow banned accounts no matter your method you will get shadowbanned again (I am pretty sure).
that being said I know some people who have created accounts well into the 50+ range on one device while being fine, personally that's why i switched to IPhones, ever since I stopped using Androids I had never received an instant shadowban just by creating the Account
The way you interact with TikTok may also shadowban you, this is why it's so important to have every step of these processes nailed down.

This is the only correct reply, Paid VPNS on Iphone work for targeting countries organically. if you're not getting views its because your content sucks/flags or you aren't warming up correctly. Also after making a certain amount of tiktok accounts on 1 iphone you will get flagged so you need to factory reset your iphone and try again after
