Thanks. Though the README also says:

> To be able to receive messages signal-cli uses a patched libsignal-service-java, because libsignal-service-java does not yet support registering for the websocket support nor provisioning as a slave device.

So maybe you can add a smartphone if you've already registered via the CLI but not the reverse? The wording is unclear to me.

That line is explaining why signal-cli doesn't use the real libsignal, but a modified copy of it. They've modified it to support shit like that. However, https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli/issues/49 makes it sound like you may have other issues.
