hello everyone.
I bought a sm-g970 from China (Dual Sim/128GB)
Now I have the problems, that i cant doing calls with VoLTE. I But my biggest problem is, that Google backup doesn't work. sometimes contacts are synchrozing, etc. but backup not. especially apps not
can I flash another rom? or.what can I do? hope I don't have to send it back. someone have a idea? I wanna use snapdragon variant. living in Switzerland.
2 screenshots are in attachment. You can see there: "backup now"-button is grey and by apps etc. "waiting for backup" since 24 hours. I tried 100 things, but no solution.
thank you all!

Hey Folks,
The story starts with this:
I started my whatsapp in Sydney when I was studying offshore. Obviously it is a +61 number with my GNEX. Now, I have graduated and now back to my home country using a new +852 sim. I have no issue using my +61 number for my whatsapp with my +852 sim.
But now, N5 is coming I will be one of them to rush for the phone.
The problem is:
Once I get my N5, I will have a new phone but not the +61 sim (at least not functioning), I would not be able to get pass the verification later on even I root the phone and uses titanium backup...
Seemed not too related to N5 itself, but just wondering any workaround from the great XDA members and developers =]
Cheers,

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the last time I tried restoring WhatsApp with Titanium Backup, it doesn't asks for verification anymore. This was several months ago though, so I'm not sure if it still works just fine now.
Just make sure the app is on its latest version from the play store before creating a backup, and cross your fingers :fingers-crossed:
If all else fails I guess you can use your Galaxy Nexus as a wifi only device?

This only works if you're using the same SIM card / number, if not it will ask for verification.
The only way is to make a backup of your messages from within the app, then copy the folder "whatsapp" from your sd card to your new phone.

Actually, when I did that it was from an old Nexus S to my Nexus 7 (2012, WiFi). So I don't think it matters if I'm using the same SIM card since my Nexus 7 had no slot for it. Also I didn't copy the whatsapp folder on my /sdcard. Just a simple backup and restore using Titanium Backup did the trick.
Nonetheless, like I said it was several months ago. Not sure if it'll still work, but I think it's worth a try
If it still fails maybe try copying the whatsapp folder like adam1000rr suggested :fingers-crossed:
Thanks guys, I am now thinking of how whatsapp is detecting the verification need... if I am able to bypass this, titanium backup should work.

Hi mate, got your Nexus 5 yet? I am in the same situation in that my whatsapp was originally registered in HK (+825) on a Galaxy Nexus and I don't have access to my SIM card right now while I'm travelling. Tested today 03/11, it all worked fine for me on the Nexus 5, just make sure both phones are rooted so you can install Titanium Backup for this to work.
I believe the following link is helpful to you:

Hey buddy thanks for that, I managed to use titanium backup to get my whatsapp back online...
Nexus 5 just as sweet as kitkat (didn't have 32gb in hk tho)! Now I have Force close on wechat "people nearby" and go keyboard. Other than that, it is just perfect =]

Hi guys,
I have a new issue. Continuing my story... I managed to get my +61 number whatsapp account on my N5 via titanium backup but now I HAVE LOST MY N5! My heart broken and got one back immediately (32gb haha). Now the issue is, I do not have a titanium backup of my N5 (of the +61 whatsapp account data) but only my GNEX one (which obviously outdated). When I am trying to do the same trick, it asks me to verify my new N5. Obviously the sms verification does not work nor the "call me" verification.
I don't care about the whatsapp conversation anymore (as it would be impossible to retrieve as the history is stored in the phone itself due to the whatsapp nature). My little wish is to have my +61 number back as my whatsapp account....=[
Please, my fellow XDA Developers and N5 buddies, give me a hand... I could buy you guys a bear if there is a fix..
Thank you...

I only just started using Whatsapp -- I'm curious, what does it matter which phone # you have? Is the only reason to "recover" a phone # you don't actually have anymore the convenience of not telling all your friends about your new #?
Hello there guys,
I just got my Honor 6 Dual SIM (H60-L02) from China. I need a phone with two SIM cards, and I fell in love with this one
It's a Chinese version, and although I got it with installed Play store, it's not working as it should. I had this same problem with my previous Chinese phone, Lenovo S860.
I have applications installed through Play, but some of them are not working as best as they should (especially with notifications and refreshing), and I can't add my Google Contacts to sync with phone.
I eventually found international ROM for Lenovo S860 and installed it on my 1GB Chinese version, and it worked great.
So, I'm interested if anyone knows if there is a way to install international version ROM on this Honor model, so I have all Google apps as they should be?
If anyone can help, please help
I love the phone, but these small problems are a bit annoying...
No you should not use the H60-L04 ROM on your L02, but there is a way to get the L02 work with GApps and so.
I don't have it, so I can't help you more, but there are lot of people who deal with it.
I have flashed GApps, and my phone is rooted.
But, I have some problems with notifications, with Viber, Facebook, and some mail applications.
When I open Viber, it says "Connecting" in the bottom, so I think it's not running all the time, so there are no notifications until I open the actual app.
Anyone has that kind of a problem?
It seems like the program doesn't have appropriate permissions to work like you want it. So give them to it. Allow it to push messages to dropzone, to run after the screen is off, to push messages to notification bar and so on. You can use Phone manager or go to settings and so on. Search the forum all of this has been explained. About gapps also, everything is working like it should be with this phone.
Hi, tried google but didn't find any answer. My gf have a s6 (regular) with rogers (carrier) she got the update VLU5CPI4 about a month ago. Since then, if she gets an e-mail with an attachment, the phone can't open it properly, a menu pop up asking for language , English and French not there, and if she reply to an e-mail, the one that received that reply get a mix of characters that don't make any sense. Tried reboot but stay the same.
Would try to prevent hard reset. Lot of pictures and even if I tell here to do a backup.... still in her to-do list, other stuff keep adding over it. If I download the firmware from Sammobile, will her phone get hard reset and all erased, or just like ota she keeps her apps and data still intact.
Thanks in advance

Interesting problem, but it could simply be a permissions issue.
Press and hold the phone app (dialer) -» App info -» look at the "permissions", make sure contacts access is allowed.
Thanks for you reply, belive me I tried all possibilities can come in my mind, even tried to depend on third-party apps still the same, factory reset... Etc nothing helps, I have feeling that the HK version is the reason!! Kindly let me know if there is another suggestion previnting dailer retrieve names from contacts app.
Hey guys,
I have just received my brand new Note 20 Ultra, but I'm having a strange issue.
Whenever I try to activate WhatsApp, it just keeps loading endlessly. Now I have tried so many times that I can't received a code to activate it on my old device either.
See the video here, has anyone experienced this? It's quite frustrating. I have also contacted WhatsApp, I'm waiting for their reply.

I had an similar issue but not that extreme, i had two attempts without joy thought WhatsUp started to work from third attempt. Hard to tell what might be a culprit, nevertheless i dont think it is a phone issue, more like error on activation server ...

Good luck mate. That happened to me also. Taught me a big lesson about relying on google drive for my WhatsApp history backups.
fi you used smartswitch you may have moved over some data that got some things tangled up.
i have the fold 2 and ultra 20. did not use smart switch. ive had zero issues with restoring my backups.
i have 2 whatsapp numbers on the ultra 20 (dual messenger) . again no issues with any of the 3 backups.
Thanks for your replies guys!
I struggled quite a lot, deleted all data transferred with smart switch but it still wouldn't work.
And last night, out of the blue, it just decided to finally work. It synced all my previous chats. I'm not sure what happened there.
