WhatsApp database recovery problem - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I had a problem with WhatsApp chats.
Yesterday WhatsApp refused to open because of problems with chats. I tried to recover chats using my .crypt12 database an it didn't work, it got stuck at 39%, the app did not crash but it din't go further.
So I decrypted msgstore.db.crypt12 using WhatCrypt and i opened the decrypted msgstore.db database to check if it was corrupted. It wasn't. I guess WhatsApp is unable to decrypt .crypt12 database file for unknown reasons. Now I don't know what to do to restore my chats.
Can I restore WhatsApp chats using the DECRYPTED database (my S6 Edge is rooted)? If not, is there something I can do?
Thanks

Does anyone know if it is possible to restore WhatsApp chats using decrypted database?

Hi,
Were you able to solve this? I'm having the same problem.

Hey, Would you mind telling me what did you do before it happened?

I don't suppose that Whatsapp backup was turned on before all these happened?

[Q] Whatsapp reader or restore old messages

Hi all, i guess it's is already mentioned.. but i couldnt find it after searching for almost a day.
I have old whatsapp messages that i want restored, could anyone explain me the way how to do it?
greetings,

I'm not quite sure what your problem is. Did you change the device or reinstall whatsapp and want to restore a backup?
In general it should work following these steps:
http://www.teamandroid.com/2011/08/21/how-to-backup-chat-messages-in-whatsapp/
Follow the steps below to backup your Whats chat conversations:
- Open WhatsApp.
- Press the Menu key, and go to ‘Settings’.
- Scroll down and go to ‘More’;.
- Now tap once on “Chat History Backup” and backup will start.
That’s it! Next time when you re-install WhatsApp after a full reset, you will be asked to restore your previous backup (which is stored on your SD card).

If not, we need some more information...
However I guess it's not that useful too have all those older messages in whatsapp, because they are just filling the internal space and you can't easily access them (you would have to press "load older messages" again and again and whatsapp will become slower and slower ...).
A good possibility is to transfer the full whatsapp backup to your PC and use a tool called "Whatsapp Extractor" to display all the conversations.

is there a way to restore iphone whatsapp backup/history to android htc one X?
Re: Whatsapp reader or restore old messages
WhatsApp automatically makes backups every 24 hours and stores them on the microSD memory card of your Android phone. To restore the deleted messages of WhatsApp, you will need to uninstall and reinstall WhatsApp. During the installation process, you will be prompted to restore the lost message history of WhatsApp. Choose restore your missing chats.
Today I woke up in the morning and saw that all my whatsapp messages were deleted, I did not perform any back or restore from any backup utility such as Titanium backup. I am on Android 4.3 on Samsung note 2.
I tried to uninstall whatsapp and re-install again, it asked for restoring messages from backup folder but only restored messages till date 30-Dec-2013, although message backup was present with latest backup of yesterday’s date i.e. 23-Feb-2014.
Please let me know how can I restore all the messages and resolve this issue.

Have you tried whatsapp migrator tool?

Try this way
Have you tried to restore by WhatsApp. If you have done a backup, messages, chats can be easily restored. If not, try Android Data Recovery on RecoveryAndroid. I used it to get my lost Whatsapp messages back days ago.:highfive:

Restore Whatsapp from msgstore.db

I tried to backup/extract my whatsapp database using this tutorial. The extraction also worked, however the restoring afterwards failed and now I have an empty whatsapp, a decrypted whatsapp chat and lost all information of the last 7 years.
Is there any way of restoring whatsapp fron the extracted files (chatsettings.db, msgstore.db, wa.db, whatsapp.cryptkey)? It would be so painfull if all of the data is gone (even though, I have it as a db - it would be gone in Whatsapp which would still be insanely sad).
I hope that anyone can help me, because I'm really desperate. If you need any more information, please feel free to ask.
