Hi everyone,

recently I wanted to transfer my whatsapp chat and media extracted from an iPhone backup and copy the files into a jailbroken one.
What I did is extracting ChatStorage.sqlite on my computer (it is the file with all the messsages I suppose) and all the media related to each chat. After that, I copied those files in the Whatsapp directoy root in my jailbroken iPhone.

It worked up to a point because I got all chats and media, but when I try to send video or audio to private chats it says that I can't. I think that some files are missing but I don't know which. It's like that I can see old media but the ones new (that I send and recieve) are hidden or are saved in a different location.

Is there some Whatsapp expert out there? ^.^

(Of course tell if there is some kind of tweak useful to export/import chats smoothly, please)
