Ok, did a fresh install on 2 Pie phones:

- Backup chats (under settings, chat backups)

- Deleted GBW

- Installed 6.7 apk - ignore restore button, key in phone number, it gets verified, and asks if want to restore backup from step 1, and accepted restore

- Set up GBW privacy to hide everything, set up other custom stuff

- check and set up all permissions, unoptimize from Doze, autostart, keep in background, rebooted

Tested a few times, it still didn't work !

Got fed up and left them to charge, they slept for about 20 mins. Was already thinking to convert GBW to a privileged system app, but decided to test again. Now both ok ! Grrr, I guess it just needed time.

[General Topics] amg0005:
Same issue here any solutions
[General Topics] hyborian:
make chat backups first under settings, take note of the time. Uninstall, and reinstall again with latest apk.

Do not restore anything when asked while installing a new GBW until after it has verified the phone number. after that, it will ask you if you want to restore your last backup, showing the time of your last backup. It should match what you have.

Do all the usual battery unoptimizing of whatsapp and autostart setting. Reboot, wait for 30 minutes before trying to send a test message to your new whatsapp. It worked on mine, 3 phones.

Well, this last update is really buggy. Starting from freezes at start using the app, to the fact that I can't use my own stickers like I used to.

The dev, Omar, answers really late on Twitter. Seems a bit inactive and not giving solid fix methods.

There are minor issues but... Having many isn't good. Anyway, I know Omar will fix all this but we will get the new update in 1 or 2 months from now I guess.

[MENTION=274600]silvia[/MENTION] I have been trying for 2 days to fix this as I have the same problem, all folders are correctly named and I go through the correct restore procedure...but...every time there are just image placeholders in the conversations and no photos in media of conversions.

The photos are there using a file Explorer.

It kinda defeats the purpose of using a modded app if it can not do the basics of the original app and yes it has extra features which I thank the Dev for!

Is there any way to fix this?

Thank you

I've done nothing special. I just restored. I suggest;

1. Make backup and Uninstall GB.

2. Install the official restore the backup.

3. Send and receive new messages and photos to and from anyone.

4. Make a backup.

5. Uninstall the official.

6. Install GB.

7. Restore backup.

It is just a thought, I'm not sure if it will work.
[General Topics] Damoedge:
Thanks for your help mate ?

I have tried what you said a few times in the last week and my media and photos just don't show...they are there but there all blurred out...it's like GB can't read them...I'm beginning to think that this version of GB just can't read the official WhatsApp media at all....

I told my friend about Gbwhatsapp last weekend and he has the same problem...he can restore chats but his media is not showing up....he told me he read somewhere that this mod of WhatsApp can't read the encryption of WhatsApp media...maybe that's true I don't know...I would love to use this app but without my media I can't...

Thanks again

[General Topics] Benjaa20:
Well, I see WhatsApp is gonna ban people again, I'm not taking risks after seeing people got banned from one day to other using WA+, they got no mercy on 2015 I think they won't now. Last updates on GB WhatsApp were bad, lot of bugs and no response from Omar, the developer. So I switched back to normal WhatsApp, not so bad as I thought. I miss the black widget I used to have and some privacy stuff, but I don't want to get banned. Let's wait until WhatsApp Authorities get cold again and switch back to GB for sure, I hope Omar fix some stuff and continue with this app unlike GB Insta.
[General Topics] Damoedge:
I feel bad because I told my nephew about GB WhatsApp last week and he installed it...it worked for 2 days and he then suddenly couldn't use it...so he reinstalled the original WhatsApp and he can't use that either! The poor lad even reset his phone and still could not use original WhatsApp...now he has to change his phone number which he had for years! Believe me any of theses moded apps for WhatsApp are Not ban free!! Facebook is really cracking down on theses apps and I think the devs of theses apps could state that on there original post! Use at your own risk and risk getting banned from original WhatsApp!
[General Topics] D-m-x:
I've never used this Mod but I remeber the WA+ times. It certainly wasn't without mercy. They mereley locked the account for a few hours (24 I think) and warned everyone that next bans will be longer. Too bad, WA+ was such a great Mod but they really don't seem to like it if users install modded versions of their App.
[General Topics] faelthel:
Well, think we gonna wait a bit for a new safe GBWA+ hehe
[General Topics] Benjaa20:
Ohh sorry for you nephew. But yes, Facebook and Mark zuckerberg are NO JOKE. They did it once, and they are doing it again. More now with all this recent problems and polemics stuff that happened in his companies. I don't think this is the end of GB and modded apps for WhatsApp and Instagram, but will cut a lot of functionalities that they used to have for sure.

I have been reading lots of articles that users of GBWhatsapp will be banned if they continue to use it, is that true?

Yes it is true as Facebook is merging all their message apps (WhatsApp, FB messenger and Instagram) into one app soon so any messages sent through moded apps will be noticed and you will probably get banned like my nephew did recently!

Solutions ?

Hi folx,

meanwhile the hints that GBWhatsApp is doomed due to the announcements of banning this and other apps and there are no more signs from the dev - so we should try to find a way to migrate our chat-backups to the original WA. Anyone has an idea how to succeed?

WA faq describes a way :

But if i remember right the backup wasn't find by WA, but i don't know the reason - but i`ll try it once again later if i find the time

Cheers

I need help to restore my GBWhatsApp Plus chats!

On Samsung Note 8 Android Pie, GBWhatsApp Plus 6.65 (GBWAPlusv6.65-2.18.327_arm64-v8a_@atnfas_hoak)

1. Did my phone backup va Samsung Smart Switch.

2 . Followed the steps to get the call recording function (https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-note-9/how-to/call-recording-android-9-t3846235/post78869864)

3. After my restore, when I tried to start GBWhatsApp and clicked the red button "Restore", loading bar appeared and app closes by itself.

4. Tried the following to reattempt s/n 3 but no avail:

a. Restarted my phone

b. Upgraded to GBWhatsApp Plus 6.70 (GBWAPlusv6.702.18.327_arm64v8a)

c. Restored GBWhatsApp application backup specifically from Samsung Switch

------------

P/S: I did not manually backup my chat in GBWhatsApp as I subconsciously treated that it was automatically backup-ed like the original WhatsApp / taken care of by Samsung Smart Switch.

Also, was trying to research on restoring GBWhatsApp chat backups and I stumbled on posts mentioning about GBWhatsApp folders on the file mangaer, however my phone shows WhatsApp folders instead, is this because I'm on the GBWhatsApp Plus version?

Is this all making any sense? Is there anything that I missed / else that I need to do successfully get my chats back?

Currently, I'm running GBWhatsApp 6.70 (from s/n 4b) in the meantime. Really want to get my previous chats back and later do a merge of previous and current chats.

Appreciate any kind help/advice on this! :crying:
