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.
