I am usingSamsung Galaxy Y pro Duos. GT 5512.
To install Whatsapp+ I had to uninstall whatsapp. I am not able to install Whatsapp+ (and Yes I am installing GB variant of Whatsapp+). It shows "Application not installed".
Now when I have installed original Whatsapp. I am asked to restore from the backup. When I tap on restore, it Crashes at 84% and shows a error. I don't want to lose the backup.
PS1: I have managed to solve the crashing problem' see the solution in the posts down.
PS2: I am still unable to get Whatsapp+ installed. It says "Application not Installed. Can anybody help in this regard?
It's advised to restore to the same backed-up version of Whatsapp

Try to uninstall Whatsapp & install once again, or if you prefer to check older versions: http://whatsapp-messenger.en.uptodown.com/android/old
It it doesn't help- leave only the latest backup file + 'msgstire.db.crypt' in the 'Database' folder of whatsapp. Other option is to check if you got
several whatsapp folders stored in device's external/internal storage, and leaving the newest one

Hi,
This issue is interesting and I have been looking for options, so you can solve your problem. If the problem is the version, as sasan_blue says, you can go to the Aptoide web, and search the old versions of whatsapp there. I was able of download different versions of whatsapp on my PC from that web.
I can't paste urls...
EDITED: Sorry, I was writing this thread while amirTor gives his answer. The English is not my language mother and take long to write. I think is best the amirTor solution.
Saludos
Thanks Guys. I got it solved by completely uninstalling whatsapp using Titanium backup app, and installing it again. It was a problem of incomplete uninstallation. (I had rebooted the device before the uninstall process finished). The problem persisted because I have been uninstalling using regular method. Also it was not a problem of a corrupted backup in my case( as I had thought).
PS. I had installed an older version too. It asked me to check my date settings. it didn't peroceed any further. I guess it was becoz of the outdated version.
HI, i have installed and rstored whatsapp a million times or so, when flashing and switching between roms. last night i tried something funny, and it cost me tooo much.
I tried to install whatsapp for another number(my phone is dual sim), while sms verification was happening, it got registered via my previously registered whatsapp no. Now even after i deleted the new no. account,i am still not able to get my old account back. when i give my old number, it doesn ask for sms verification, and goes to local backup directly, but fails there and throws error. on the other hand, i can verify the account, but cannot restore all my messages.
Please help, as my msgs are quite important..!
il hit the thanks button..!

You can solve this problem by registering your new number again and restoring your old number's chats.
Once you are able to restore your old number's chat by registering on the new number. You can now change the number officially by using the 'change number' feature in the WA settings.
See if this trick works for you.
Good luck.

Hey thanks for the response,
Things arent way the its supposed to...even if im trying to sign up using another account, still the verification is not being done and whern restoring is trying to happen, it force closes or shows a message that it cannot restore msgs in the server
if u know any solution please let me know, its pretty annoying without whatsapp for a week and i need those old messages..its pretty important.
I have done flashing roms a 100 times and never faced this issues, and now it aint going at all..
Ok. copy the backup database some where safe.
Delete your new number account ( from within the WA account settings)
Remove the WA using titanium backup. (you need to be rooted for TB to work)
Reinstall the WA.
See if you are able to register your new number.
Use WhatsApp recovery app to restore you account information, the tool is available free of cost.
If no chats are being restored while reinstalling Whatsapp and you want to restore from a local backup... Try to uninstall and reinstall Whatapp and simply take a local backup of the empty chats and copy the entire filename (Ex: msgstore.db.crypt12) and delete this backup file.. Now paste the backup file from where you want to restore the chats in the Whatsapp databases folder and rename it with the name that was copied from latest backup file (msgstore.db.crypt12).
Clear WhatsApp data (from Settings -> Apps-> WhatsApp-> Clear Data). When you launch Whatsapp now, it will prompt again for the verification details etc. Skip the google drive step and Whatsapp will restore all your chats from your desired local backup. But please make sure you have lot of free space on your device. I cleared about 3gb of data from device memory in order to get this working.
It worked for me when I finally was about to give up after trying for 3 days..

Hi guys,
I am looking to root my OnePlus3T however I want to make a backup of some apps and games. I checked out Helium however this didn't work for me, the app fails to backup saying that it cannot complete due to a device password (which I never entered).
Can anybody recommend any other solutions for app and app data backups?
Thanks
I am on xposed with supersu/twrp 7.1.1 on oneplus 3t and I used an old rooted phone to transfer my logged in session to the device in order to bypass the root block, I was notified the other day after months of regular use that my account would be locked for "3rd party apps". After my account unlocked I tried restoring snapchat using the backup file on my oneplus but it no longer works and I dont have access to the old rooted phone I made the backup on. Bluestacks doesnt work either for making a backup because I can't even log in
I know magisk is the solution to this but I dont have the time or patience to unroot my phone and redo it, just dont want anymore problems.
Could someone please log into my account, create a full app+data backup of the app and send it to me? I know it's risky giving out my snap info but I can't use the app at all right now anyway, please can someone with integrity and generosity help me out??

I'd start with OnePlus' official app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oneplus.backuprestore
I'm sure there's other 3rd party solutions out there.
Here's a couple of lists to peruse:
https://www.tomsguide.com/us/pictures-story/633-best-android-backup-apps.html
https://www.androidauthority.com/best-android-backup-apps-and-other-ways-too-608014/
I myself don't backup anything other than my Google account/apps, but, it makes sense to use the mfgs own tool & wouldn't hurt to use others as well, see which method(s) do the best job.
Problem with OnePlus switch is that it takes backup locally. What if I need to install a custom ROM and then restore my backup ? How can I do that as I have to factory reset my phone for it.
Have you followed this guide for fixing Android backup?
https://www.xda-developers.com/android-backup-google-drive-broken-how-to-fix-manager/
Just so you know, it can take some time before the backups succeeds after applying this. For me it succeeded one day later.
I used to use titanium backup but when I got on OnePlus 7 pro titanium would stop working when restoring so I switched to swift backup and it works really smooth and just the other day I did my first restore from swift (with root permissions) and it did really well getting accounts logged back into and everything. I only had a few trouble apps that I had to clear data and re-log into but otherwise went unexpectedly smooth

Migrate does the trick easily.
Hello, so i am trying to use a Textnow mod and its having login issue. You cant go pass login page. The only way to bypass this is first downloading the original then log in and then backup its data then restore on the mod version.
The app that was specified to be used was titanium and it requires root access. I was wondering if there was another backup app that doesn't need root access or if anyone has a solution.
Google offers backup of phone's app data via its backup service, what on most phones is enabled by default. In order to use it, you have to make sure that the option "Back up to Google Drive" is enabled for your account. You can find the setting under Settings->Google settings->Backup. FYI: You can view the active backups in this section.
If you don't want to do it this way you may use Helium App Sync and Backup what doesn'r require Android is rooted.
