Restore whatsapp messages?

[Deadman]

I am unable to restore whatsapp messages from crypt8 file. It fails after reaching 76%. Also everytime i reinstall whatsapp for restoration attempt i have to wait for countless hrs for next verification msg or call to appear.

if you have a db file, the verification will not happen.

answer me few questions.

Why are you restoring messages, is it a new phone?
Is number changed?

The phone and nmbr both are same. I had reinstalled whatsapp.
My phone is gs4 custom rom. I had done restoration before but i had made a backup of whatsapp folder instead of relying on crypt file so restoration was done easily.

After reinstalling you can create a backup of your previous messages in your Google account. It will provide you option to do backup for daily, weekly, monthly or yearly.

If you don't restore your messages then you take screenshot of them else using another app.
