I am actually having the same problem like this too.

Thanks in Advance.
there is an app called jeyo mobile companion... it can be use to backup/restore sms, send sms via your pc and more....
Are you the latest version, sms problem should be fixed.
i try , thanks
Hi, run this after restore and soft reset.
What does it do?
If you're using Sprite Backup 2 then you MUST get version 3. Version 2 has a known problem where it screws up your SMS folders and you can't receive text messages.
CleanMail will clean your pocket outlook folders (erasing EVERYTHING) and get it back into a working state.
I strongly suggest getting version 3 of Sprite Backup as it doesn't have this problem.
I had this too, a week ago with sprite backup version3.1.1. Go to
http://www.spritesoftware.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=14
and look in "Announcement: STEPS TO FIX THE SMS PROBLEM"
They know the problem. I asked them yesterday if the problem was solved in their very new version 3.1.2 : but they didn't reply me yet I have just checked in their forum.
Well.. i hardrest my unit to install Radio 1.13.. then. i reinstalled everything.
Everything works well until today when i try to setup my pop email account on my BA.
When i reach step 4/5 where they ask me to name the account, it won't go any further. I press "Next" nothing happened. soft reset and another go... no go.. still suck at that part.
I have done this setup many times before and this is the first time i encounter this problem...
Any one has any idea? :roll:
stuck
i have the same problem till now i blame my hebrew langaue install but now i see it a coomon problem so we have to look for another email program over ce
Ok.. i found the problem.. is the backup SMS program that i am using that's causing this problem...
After I restore my messages with smsBackup v1.1, it won't let me add new account again..
SO.. USER BEWARE!!! :twisted:

I also had a similar problem recently. Had a couple of installs that went bad, so I restored a backup. All my software was fine, but SMS wasn't restored. Further more, wouldn't let me create a new account for text messages. I could create other mail accounts, but not for text messages. It was explained to me that this is a defect and the way around it is when you do a backup, backup everything EXCEPT your e-mail in one file, then create a second backup with ONLY your e-mail/messages in another file.
I used this process with Sprite Backup 3 and it's been working fine. First I restore the larger backup with all the software. Then I restore the e-mail only backup and everything comes back normally. Hope this helps!
My problem is that, this happened when i haven't done any restore. I hardreset the device, install some programs, and setup POP3 then it got stuck at step 4
So what is the real problem, it must not due to error regarding restoration.
The O2 XDA IIi seem to got so many defects, very disappointed with that kind of device
Hello,
So I use Sms backup+ for backing up sms to GMAIL. But i have 2 messages ( at least) that dont want to be backed up.
I tried SMS BACKUP + , to delete it and install again. No help.
I backup with titanium , but , no show.
I noticed that they didnt show when I flashed new rom. Which I didnt like and I restored NANDROID .
So now I can see them in my messeges app.
This 2 messages I received. But the one I sent to the same contact I can backup.
So how come ?
Thanks In advance
EDIT : I noticed another messages that wont backup. And it suddenly started acting like this couple of days ago. messages from week ago are just fine. And the problem is only with the messages that I receive
Are you trying to restore between ROM series? If you do, then that might be the issue....
Try with this app called SMS Backup & Restore.

I use Sms Backup + . It backs up to GMAIL all my messeges ecery 24 hours.
When I flash a rom I restore the messeges.
When I flashed the rom I noticed some messages where missing. So I thought maybe it didnt performm a backup or something.
But then I had problems with the rom and restored with nandroid that I performed before flashing .
I saw those messages and tried to back up but it wont backup ( wont show on GMAIL and I open the XML file from titanium and didnt find those messeges )
Again all new messeges that I receive it wont back up but the sending messages it does backup :\
Sorry for double, I thought it merges them automatically :|
Hello XDA Community,
i recently flashed a new rom to my mobile and wanted to restore my apps as
usual containing whatsapp as well. Everthing went well except whatsapp. I
tried to restore whatsapp with Titanium Backup, MayBackUp Pro and the
build-in restore function of whatsapp of course too. I tried every possible
copy and paste solution i could find on the internet but nothing helped.
The result was always the same the only thing which was restored were the
group chat names nothing else all my chats are gone.
I tried all suggestions from this Post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1268031 but nothing helped.
I switched from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1151765 to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2031467.
Please help me to find a solution. Thank You
Do you have the following folder on your sd card?
sdcard/WhatsApp/Databases
The chat backups should be stored in there. I've successfully uninstalled and reinstalled the app, and restored all the chats successfully before.
Yes i have the folder there otherwise i weren't able to use the restore function of whatsapp.
I reinstalled it dozen times but always the same result. Groupchat names visible but empty and all single chats are gone.
Thank u for ur reply
Check the files within that folder, open them up within a text editor or something, just to check they're not corrupted.
Instead of restoring app+data from Titanium Backup, clear app data then uninstall WhatsApp. Then try installing the app fresh from the Play Store first.
Open it and set it up fresh, hopefully will ask to restore the conversations by itself. Afterwards, restore data only with Titanium.
I tried what u suggested but it didnt work. I installed WA fresh from the Market set it up and after that i restored the data with titanium backup. When i start WA after this procedure WA told me the Database is corrupted and asked me if i want restore from sd-card but it doesnt matter if i press yes or no the result ist still the same. WA Groupchats restored but empty and single chats missing.
Thank u for ur reply
Hmm if it's telling you it may be corrupted, then unfortunately the database may be corrupted.
In the Databases folder, can you rename the msgstore.db.crypt file to something else, then rename another slightly older database msgstore.db.crypt-2013-08-XX to msgstore.db.crypt. Then uninstall and reinstall from Play Store again?
I'm hoping it's just the latest file which is corrupted, and the others backups are ok. You may not get all the messages back, you might lose a day's worth of messages if this works. Sorry if you've already tried this too, running out of ideas
Yes i tried this too. So i wanted to prove if the Backups are really corrupted. I installed another ROM (euroskank) and installed whatsapp through the playstore and restored all messages during the validating process. Viola 27.000 messages restored. So now i have absolutly no idea what i can do to solve it and restore it on the ROM i want.
Anyway Thanks for ur help

Hah you wouldn't believe me, that was going to be my next suggestion, restore an old nandroid or new ROM to see if it works. I didn't think it would work because it still has to refer to the files on the SD card, independent of ROM. Glad it's definitely not corrupted though
So once it's installed and working on euroskank, make another manual backup.
Then try Mildwild again, install WhatsApp from scratch, it really should work, finger's crossed!
So finally i could test it. AND it didn't work. Still the same problem. Thats insane. I tried even a previous version of the rom to test if it's caused by the latest one but no got the same result.
Thank u for ur help i appreciate it.

That is insane, that it works with one rom and not the other. Try asking in the ROM thread to see if anyone else has WhatsApp issues?
I'm out of ideas, sorry, hope you get it sorted somehow!
I already did and unfortunately i got no reply till now and nobody got the same problem before. So i am the Columbus here in a bad way. I messaged the developer on xda and Facebook today, i hope he will reply.
Nevermind i thank u alot for trying to help me. You were the only one who at least tried it.

The solution that worked for me...
Hi I was having the same problem as you and also couldn't find anyone who had the same issue. Anyway I was moving from a gingerbread phone to a jellybean phone. So I used a backup app called Super Backup. I tried numerous things that didn't work. This is what I did that did work.
Also backup up your backup before you start.
1. On new phone uninstall whatsapp, then delete the whatsapp folder on the internal storage.
2. Restore whatsapp from backup app.
3. Before you run whatsapp delete the whatsapp folder on the internal storage again.
4. Copy the whatsapp folder from the sd card to the internal storage.
5. Run whatsapp.
Let me know of this works for you. It did for me.
Thanks.

Hi, i have the same problem when doing the same trasition from gingerbread and runnymedemod007 transition to the MildWil 14 AOPK version,
Whatsapp finds my backup and askes for restoring, but after resoring there are no messages.
when i install the old Sense rom again i can do a restor and all messages are there...
Did you ever find out how to mak it work?

Unfortunately i didn't solve it. I settled without restoring the messages. You can try what Nicadini suggested.

Tried everything in the thread here and even restoring complete backups of the previous ROM (what works when trying to use whatsapp on a WIFI only tablet) but that doesn't even work.
I think it has something to do with the encryption in the ROM i guess or the way it stores the Phone number, as Whatsapp only wants to restore a message database for the same Phone number...

That can't be the case. If I remember right my phone number was the same as the stored number in wa that day. But if its a crypting problem of the rom u better contact the autor of it. Sry that i cant do more to help you. It got out of my hands.

I think it has to be something like that, because just as you i have made the same transition from gingerbread to MILDWILD 14 Rom, and the problem only seems to be with the WILDWILD Rom.
any other rom that i have tested, the internal restor of whatsapp works like a charm.
So the only thing that can cause the problem is the framework/UI from the Mildwild roms.
I've written to the Dev.from WILDWILD to ask assistence, but so far no reaction.
Tonight i'm going to test a few other MILDWILD Roms to see if the problem is with all the MW roms or only with the 14

UPDATE:
I tried all the other WildWild MOD Roms yesterday and the problem only seems to be with the MW-14 Rom.
With all other Roms the WhatsApp restor works perfectly.
So for now i'm going to stay with the MW CM-8 version and try to Mod that myself a bit.
Seems to be very stable and fast, Also more options in the Camera Settings and i like the ICS look.
Only downside are the quicksettings (i like them more from MW14 or Sense)

Hi,
Sorry i have to dig this thread out, as i need help. Im also facing the same problem, trying to restore my backup file from old samsung S3 phone onto my new samsung note3 phone. I believe maybe somehow, by now, you have figured it out. I need help here. All my single chat history cannot be restored.
The backup file in the database doesnt seem corrupted. I went through a conventional whatsapp restore by pasting the file in the whatsapp database folder and launch the whatsapp after installation and restore. But still, no single chat history. Only group chats.

Hey guys, sorry to post here but long time reader, first time posting. I have searched and found a few topics but nothing that helps. I am on liquid 2.9 and have backed all apps/data. I recently flashed crDroid AOSP [Build3]. Titanium wont restore anything from apps to call log. Its a clean flash and have the most up to date titanium. Also, have the newest 4.3 gapps. Tried 3 clean flashes. Any suggestions?
Are you having the issue where it just hangs there when restoring? If so, go to menu>preferences>backup folder location>(select detect)>(select whole Device)>pick the one that is located in /storage/emulated/legacy/0/TitaniumBackup. Just make sure its the one in the legacy folder.
I do have that with the apps. Thanks. I will try that. With call log and messages it will say the restore has been completed successfully and it will take less than a second or two but nothing will show in the log or messages. Any suggestions on that issue. I know i can just start over but like to carry those over with me.

Do you have a backup of your last ROM? If so, use the app "Nandroid Manager" in the Play Store. You can restore texts and call logs from your backup. I've never used Titanium Backup to restore texts and call logs so I dont know about that issue.
Thanks. I will try that. I have always used that and it usually works great but 4.3 is a different animal. I am sure Titanium is working on it but wanted to see if I was missing something. Thanks for the help.
