WhatsApp stickers migration from old phone and "Something went wrong" - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I made a WhatsApp backup to GoogleDrive in old phone (Redmi Note 7) about 11 gb
Restored that backup into a new Redmi Note 11 (took 2-3 days due very slow ISP)
- chats restored ok
- stickers restored ok at first. But now I'm getting "Something went wrong" when I want to see stickers from a pack (see image attached)

}
1. In RN7 I had Wemoji App which I used to create all custom sticker packs and install to whatsapp. Could not restore this app data in the new phone, even copying manually Android/data/com.wemoji folder from old phone to new one
2. I've removed both apps, WhatsApp and Wemoji from battery saving or battery optimization in new phone's settings; then restarted phone, etc. no luck
3. I can't open WhatsApp in old phone due it detected I've moved all to new phone and 1st time wizzard shows
4. I think Whatsapp files in old phone may still be available to copy manually, but I guess it won't work by just copying:
RN7: internal_storage/WhatsApp/media/Whatsapp Stickers
to (new path since Android 11)
RN11: internal_storage/Android/media/com.whatsapp/WhatsApp/Media/Whatsapp Stickers
There must be a database used by WhatsApp so it knows how to organize all the .webp files stored in stickers folder
Does anyone have a suggestion? I don't want to restore Google Drive backup again. Maybe some tool that can assure I'll be able to migrate stickers from old phone to new?
Thanks for any advise you may have

New Phone - Mysterious Files in Download Folder

Hi everyone, I just got a new XZ1 today (purchased from recommended Sony retailer as new), but I noticed some unknown files in the downloads folder I'm worried about, has anybody else noticed these or know what they are?
File list:
rce_plugin_string_resource_pt_BR.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_fr_FR.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_de_DE.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_en_US.test.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_it_IT.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_es_ES.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_cz_CZ.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_ja_JP.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_v2_TYPO_TEST.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_zh_CN.json.min
rce_plugin_string_resource_nl_NL.json.min
CS_JIT_Animation.mp4
jit_cs_positive_preview.png
Opening one of the files in VSCode, this is what the file looks like:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I'm worried about "rce" since that seems eerily close to remote code execution.
Any advice very much appreciated.
I just found the exact same files in the download directory of an old Verizon Ellipsis tablet I just reset and renewed a few days ago. It is running 5.1.1 Lollipop
Did you find any info on this? Thx!
Bump! Found this on a phone that was purchased/reset a few days ago. BB Key2 on android 8.1.0
Files only show up when i insert a USB drive and open the file copy android native UI. Does not show up on ghostcommander unless i move the files to a new directory (but then stupid android UI deletes and recreates the file, losing all original metadata such as permission, owner etc... and the useless android UI where i can see/copy the files, do not show permission/owner)

Google Drive Backup - No Backup Found

I had problem with accidentally updating my Oreo 8.1 SGS9+ to Pie while being modded with Swift Installer. It failed. So I had to flash stock Oreo rom with Odin to get it working. I did a factory reset to get it running because it couldn't optimize apps.
On clean Oreo I tried to restore my old progress by logging to my main Gmail. As it always worked on all my devices in the past. But FML now everything refuses to work.
When I tried to log at the welcome screen and restore data from the old device (same model same system) NOT create new it shows something like this
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
which is not true, look at my drive -
I'm looking everywhere for a solution as I can't get past welcome screen and i won't create new (exactly same) device because I don't believe at all that Google won't overwrite the data I NEED.
Google support is also on top of **** - https://support.google.com/drive/answer/6305834?co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid&oco=1 by manage they understand DELETE.
What should I do. I even flashed lineageOS 15 as i thought its Samsung fault as its also based on oreo 8.1
Please help.
I have skipped the welcome screen to add account and see what will be restored. NOTHING no call logs, SMS, calendar, and of course no apps. Play store sees only 10 random apps when I can easily" count on my fingers" to 50

Unable to transfer files to PC

Hello. I own a Xiaomi Redmi 7A. Since the very beginning I have issues transfering files to PC.
First of all, the device barely loads on Windows 10. Whenever I try to move files or even simply open folders, it freezes. Never had this problem before with any Android device, either from Samsung or LG. Or whatever other brand (not even those cheap Chinese freaks).
But whenever I connect my 7A to PC, I have to quickly try to move files before 30 seconds or so. After that, it totally freezes. Or files don't respond. Or explorer.exe doesn't respond.
I have tried reinstalling drivers, activating debugging mode and tons of other things I could find on internet, having NO success at all. Tried with my mom's laptop (Windows 7) and I was surprised I got the exact same problem. So, I came to this forum, cause I believe you guys are the only one who can save me.
I didn't want to get a new phone, because I got this one only 4 months ago, so... But seems like I'm going to have to get a new one asap.
Examples of the dozens of problems I've been experience:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
(Failure moving File or Folder - Catastrophic failure)
(Hanging forever/files don't show)
Eternal copying (that can't be cancelled and still freezes)
Some more different errors (googled it and no success finding a decent fix)
Seems to be a mass storage bug with either the device or Windows

Non existing photo, synchronization issue Google Photos

I have a strange problem with Google Photos. I am user of Xiaomi Mi Note 10 with MIUI12 and Android 10. Whole software is up to date.
On 27.10 i tried to take a photo but my camera app crashed. In a result picture have been created which looked deformed. I deleted it using my stock Gallery app. From there and from my file manager everything looks normal. Unfortunately when i open GP i can see "black photo" with corresponding date and time to this crash.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Moreover the path related to picture simply do not exist and picture have 0B. I don't have external sd card and path to my dcim folder is with 0 inside it not 999.
The issue is I am not able to delete this picture in any know to me method. Simply clicking on trash icon GP ask for permistion to sdcard (which do not exist). Anyway i gave it and nothing happened. Button move to archive also don't work, it simply says it cannot be done.
What really annoys me is fact that it constaly trying to synchronize it to my accout.
What i did so far:
-stop the app
-remove all it's data
-reinstall
After reinstalling i noticed one thing until i won't resume synchronization the file do not exist but shorty after resuming it pop up again...
I can also add that i tried to find it in on my phone without succes and it is not visible on others synchronized devices.
Any advices how to get rid of it?
