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,
Gertjan
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?
:good:
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:
I just rooted my phone to install the Google edition ROM but before I did I backed up my texts using Wondershare MobileGo. I've used this program to backup and restore messages, contacts, photos, etc. on my phone many times before and on previous phones and it has worked fine. But this time when I try to restore my messages they don't show up on my phone. To be specific, when I first do the restore the threads will show up under the contact name but there will be no messages when I open the thread. Soon after they just all disappear (only the restored messages, not any new ones). It seems like they're getting deleted as they're empty threads but that's just a guess. I thought it might have been a problem when doing the backup so I opened up the file (.sms file) in notepad and all the messages are there. I think it has something to do with Kit Kat but I've never encountered this problem before.
So does anyone know how I could restore my messages from the .sms file I was given from the backup or why the messages don't show up on my phone? Thanks!
After installing a new rom to my Nexus 5x Titanium backup become my default SMS app and i did not realize it. Iwas expecting an important SMS then i realized that TB got it but nothing was shown. Is there a way to recover it?
Someone.?
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?
This dr.fone can help to recover lost or deleted WhatsApp chats from Android smartphone easily, also contacts, messages, photos, music and more.

I backed up my chats in whatsapp. I reinstalled whatsapp. It asks for restore option from local backup "msgstore.db.crypt14" but when i click restore it pops out a message says"unable to restore you chats history from this backup, do you want to restore from older backup"
And i don't have backup on google drive.
I try all the ways, and everything exist on the internet.
I resorted my chat in the past but this is the first time i had this problem.
Please help me
I had many important messages from 5 year's.
and i have all my work on this backup.
