Need help for GBWhatsApp to WhatsApp - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi XDA,
coming to point, i used GBWhatsapp since 2015 now i want to move official whatsapp because they banned my account for 2 hours for using Modded app. I take backup in GB and install Official app, put all data in com.whatsapp folder as mentioned in another thread. Also changed all folder name from GBWhatsApp to WhatsApp.
Now after activating my account on WhatsApp, all chats are restored. but when i try to open an media file in whatsapp like Image or video it's shows "Sorry, this media file doesn't exist on your internal storage" but all media files present in folder.
for more understanding, i attached screenshots, Please help me how to show media files in whatsapp chat.
also let me know if i post this thing on wrong place as i don't have much knowledge about posting on XDA.

Try This:
1. WhatsApp stores a backup of all conversations in the SD Card. It can be accessed by doing the following:
1. Install a File Manager such as Astro File Manager, on BlueStacks
2. Navigate to sdcard/WhatsApp/Databases/
3. The message history backups are stored here. Click down on the file msgstore.db.crypt,
select Copy from the options that come up. Navigate to
/sdcard/bstfolder/bstSharedFolder/ and paste the file.
4. This file can now be accessed on the PC by navigating to
C:/ProgramData/BlueStacks/UserData/SharedFolder.
2. Now the messages can be accessed by decrypting the databases (this link tells you how)
I Don't Know That Whether It'll Work Or Not. [Do At Your Own Risk. ]
This worked for me
1. Explore your phone files on your PC, search for whatsapp messages in something like this: phone/whatsapp/databases
2. Upload the last created message database you found to your Dropbox or Drive account
3. Install file manager HD in bluestack (This App allows you to copy/delete files from SD and cloud servers/dropbox)
4. Make sure to uninstall whatsapp from bluestack before you do next step
5. In the file manager HD identify the database you upload in dropbox
6. Install whatsapp, before they ask your phone number do the next step
7. In file manager hd move the message file from dropbox to SDcard/whatsapp/databases
8. Put phone in whatsapp and it will ask you to recover messages, accept, and it should work
while updating the bluestacks whatsapp, i changed my profile name and now no old history is available... how to get my old chat history, Please help.
better idea is install file manager make a zip file of watsapp folder and paste it to /sdcard/bstfolder/bstSharedFolder/
find that zip file on your pc from C:/ProgramData/BlueStacks/UserData/SharedFolder and paste it in your phone and extract it to your internal directory and done

[Q] Deleted Whatsapp Folder in phone - Need to recover the Folder ?

Hi, by mistake i deleted Whats app folder( Folder which contain my whatsapp media file ) in my android photo , i lost all my photos, videos which shared in my whatsapp account..
Is there any way to recover those whatsapp media file ?
I tried with some recovery app , it show only other deleted file,, not showing my whatsapp media file,,,
actually i deleted the whole whatsapp folder...
If your device is listed in this tutorial you can try this to mount your device as mass storage and run Revuva fit example to recover your files.
I don't think your WA folder was on extsdcard, if this is the case you could give this a try (but also just if you own a Sony or Samsung device).
Good luck!

Hotmail folders using stock android kitkat app

Any ideas as to why when I create a new email folder on my hotmail account on a PC, it doesn't appear in the folders on my android app (stock kitkat email app)? Any way to refresh the folder list? I can find emails contained in any 'new' folder by searching for them on the android app, but I'm unable to actually get to the newly created folder.
Same happens when i delete a folder using my PC on my hotmail - the folder isn't deleted (or at least still appears) on the email app.
Many thanks for any help you can offer.

Can you please let me know the steps to stop the creation of ".nomedia "file in a specific folder( Ex : Abcd album) so that i am able to the pictures of it in the gallery.Every now and then it gets created and i had to delete it manually. I am using Whatsremoved App which stores the deleted files and statuses from WhatsApp in a folder but in the folder .nomedia files gets created, thus that folder did not come in the gallery and gets hidden, no matter how many times i delete that file it keeps coming.
Also, i had used this same app on my old Moto G4 Plus and i did not face the same issue on that phone.

Question Facebook apps do not see screenshot folder after update to Android 12

Hi,
Is this only me or can someone confirm that Messenger and Facebook do not display screenshots when I try send/post image. I see all other folders like WhatsApp etc. but apps do not see screenshot folder and I can't send them.
On Android 12 I have two screenshot folder. One old in the DCIM folder, and a new on the pictures folder.
After a update sometimes permission of folders gets messup.
To fix copy all yours files from misbehaving folder, to a new folder you just create, then delete the misbehaving folder, now take a screenshot the folder must be recreated by system automatic, then place all yours copy files on the new folder.
Then check if app can see it.
