I cannot download WhatsApp for my Lumia 720 Windows phone?
After uninstalling, I cannot reinstall it
There is simply one reason why you are not able to download the app and that is because Windows has removed the application from the app store. The reason they pulled the app from the store and devices is so that they can fix the bugs that are occurring on the device.
They have not given a specific time limit on how long it is going to take, but they have said that once it is fixed, they will return the app to be used on Windows devices:

During downloading it shows an error without completing the full download, it got interrupted. Please solve this problem
Before doing something drastic like hard-resetting your phone, check if your Windows Live is synchronized. Press the home button, swipe left, tap on "Settings", "email + accounts". Tap on your account and select "Sync".
Make sure that your account is verified by logging into Microsoft Account. Then, click "Your info", "Manage your sign-in email or phone number", "Verify", and "Send me verification email". Check the message in the email inbox and click the link.
Check your date, time zone (location), and time by swiping left from the home screen and tapping "settings" and "date + time".

I cannot download WhatsApp. My phone is an HTC with Android?
I've used WhatsApp for almost a year and a half. I had to download it again before because I've got a warning message saying it had expired. I let a couple of days pass, and I could download it again. This time I kept on getting messages to update to latest version, but when I tried to do it, it would fail with error message "lack of memory". Now it stopped working with 21 Jan expiry date. But when I try to download it from the marketplace, it keeps on failing for lack of memory. My available memory is 1.84GB in SD card and 55.01MB Internal phone storage. Thanks.
It is. Indeed, a lack of memory. Android uses its internal memory first for downloading, extracting, and installing software. To clean your phone, uninstall unnecessary applications. Then, in applications, go to "Settings", and then go to "Application manager". Tap each application and tap "Move to SD card" and "Clear Cache" if they are available. These should clear some space for WhatsApp.

It was working fine, then some problems started with syncing, so I uninstalled it from my Lumia 625 Windows phone.

People told me that I need first to create a Microsoft account, and I did, but it keeps saying "attention required" so I can't download any social network, but I do have Google account, so what do I have to do?
