Whatsapp Google Drive restore not working.

[JCC2]

Hi ! Hope someone her can help me...

I wanted to move my whatsapp to another phone (S3 Mini) with no luck.
First the google drive backup would get stuck forever. This proved to be a bug in Whatsapp version 2.16.225 so I installed version 2.16.238 and I was finally able to backup to Google Drive.

I then installed whatsapp version in S3 Mini and was able to download 420MBs of backup but when I checked the chats they were blank.... Groups would show up ( with joining dates but no chats or media (pics/videos) show up, A quick check in internal data storage shows all media is there but database shows only today's file in a quite small file (11 kbs)

Any help would be appreciated!

Tks in advance,

JCC2

Hi, I have experienced the exact same issue on my Oneplus 3 phone. Did you find a solution to your problem?

Many thanks,
