[Q] Whatsapp cannot restore backup!

I've been trying to restore my chats from my Galaxy Fit with whatsapp version 2.11.175 to my Galaxy S3 Neo with whatsapp version 2.11.238 with no success! I transferred my sd card which contains the whatsapp folder(old). It didn't work. So, I copy/pasted the database & several other folders that weren't there in the new folder (the 2.11.238's folder) from the sd card one and reinstalled the app. This time it asked if I wanted to restore the found backup or not...to which I clicked the restore button...After few seconds, I got an error saying it couldn't restore & continued synchronizing. >_<
Is there a way to restore all the chats? Without rooting?
Please help guys! Thanks in advance!
The whatsapp folder in sdcard only include some audio files and pictures/videos, not your chat history. Since you are non-rooted user, you can try helium (download from playstore). It can be used without root to backup data of your apps (of course this includes your whatsapp account and chat history), but you will need to install a pc client to help you on that. It's very easy to set up, head over to the playstore and give it a try!

[Q] Acessing Whatsapp Database

I have encountered a very weird error when i attempted to edit the database of whatsapp
I have made an app (Requires Root) which will copy the Whatsapp Database to Storage then it will edit it. After it finishes editing the database it copies it back to Whatsapp Directory(/data/data/com.whatsapp/databases/) . After the database it put back to its original place, i closed Whatsapp and reopened it. On Nexus 5 running Android L it worked but on my Galaxy S2 4.1.2 when i open Whastapp i get a message saying my message history is corrupted (I checked the Database, it isn't corrupted since i was able to open it in Root Explorer). I got rid of the error on my Galaxy S2 By using Titanium Backup (I backed up Whatsapp's Data when it gave me the corrupted message then i pressed restore [I basically DIDN'T Do Anything])
Why Did it work when i backed up a database that whatsapp considered corrupted the restored it?
How can i make it work without having the user to use Titanium Backup?
Thanks a lot For reading my question.

Whatsapp

I have changed my phone and I have taken the backup of my whatsapp data also and stored it on to my PC.
Now I have the only 2files that were stored by name:
msgstore-2017-10-17.1.db.crypt12
msgstore.db.crypt12
Both files are of the same size,(about 77MB) and is only text data.
Now when I install whatsapp on new device and trying to restore from the above files, at after 13% of restore an error message comes up and says that "unable to restore the messages"
Once again telling.. I have these 2 files only. I have NO KEY file also with me,
Is there any chance to recover my data. If so, please let me know how to do that.
If required, I have no objection to share my PC through teamviewer for the helping hand
