[Q] Help in restoring whatsapp Database folder

I have recently switched to a new Custom ROM and in the process of doing it have lost the whatsapp DB folder and hence i cannot restore my old messages from whatsapp. Unfortunately i did not make a backup of the folders, have tried few of the data recovery folders but they were only able to restore images and docs but not the db file.
Could someone let me know if there is anyway we could recover the Whatsapp DB folder after it has been deleted.
Currently using
ROM: cyanogenMod 10.1

[Q] How to import/ restore vmg sms backup to android?

I have got an old Samsung mobile that exports all the SMS in .vmg format ?
How can I restore those messages on my android format ?
Is there any tool to convert .vmg messages to .xml so I could restore using SMS Backup & Restore ?
Or is there any app to restore from .vmg files directly like the one, SDBackup, unfortunately, which didn't work for me ?

Take ABC Amber Nokia Converter

[Q] WhatsApp: How to merge databases

Heya.
I have 2 whatsapp chat backup files in the format msgstore.db.crypt7 / 5.
If I install whatsapp with one of the files in the databases folder, it will ask if I want to import them and does it successfully.
But if I have 2 files in there, it just chooses one.
I can decrypt one of them since its the current one I am using and my phone is rooted, but the other one is old and from before the phone was rooted.
So the first one I can open with SQLite viewer, the second one I can't - so can't merge sqlite files.
I tried using WhatsApp Xtract but it seems its old and doesn't support crypt5/7 formats.
How can I accomplish this?
Thanks!

How to open backed up Whatsapp chat DB.crypt8

I accidentally deleted some important conversations from my Whatsapp on my Galaxy note 4 and iam trying to find out if its possible to restore them. I went to my root folder to whatsapp/databases and inside there are encrypted files, each one of several kb,of my conversations for example: msgstore.db.crypt8. I even sent these files to my email to have them available in the future. So my question is if its possible to open there files somehow? Thanks.

Yes, but you first need to extract the key. See: WhatsApp Key/DB Extractor
Hi, can we decrypt a db.crypt8 file without a key?

Whatsapp db file decrypt and encrypt : msgstore.db to msgstore.db.crypt12

Hello everybody.
I need your help in a matter regarding Whatsapp database decryptions. I am currently trying to decrypt, modify and then encrypt again an msgstore.db.crypt12 file. I use Link2SD to freeze Whatsapp, and then I am using WhatCrypt for the decryption (Decrypt WhatsApp Database - path set to the db.crypt12 file - Decrypt Database). It creates a msgstore.db file which I open with aSQLiteManager and edit it (practically editing a phone number and a few messages). Afterwards, I go back to WhatCrypt and hit Encrypt WhatsApp Database - set path to the now modified decrypted msgstore.db - Encrypt Database. The thing is that now it creates a msgstore.db.crypt file, not a crypt12. Can someone please tell me what am I doing wrong? How can I get it to create a file with the crypt12 extension, which I can use to replace the original one? Sorry for the noob question, but I am really stuck here and I could really use your help. Thank you in advance !
