NOTE: Both old and new phone should have latest whatsapp versions. If both are in latest version we will get the latest backup file i.e same cryp version of the backup file.
Old Phone :
Go to Whatsapp/Databases folder in old phone.
In Databases copy the latest msgstore.db.cryp12 and Send to your new phone through SD Card or Using Computer. Dont do any rename to the backup file.
If you have installed the WhatsApp on an external SD card, simply take the SD card out of your old phone, and put it into your new one
New Phone:
Install the latest whatsapp version.
It will create a folder called Whatsapp. Now copy the msgstore.db.cryp12 to the folder Whatsapp/Databases. If databases folder is not exist create a folder in Whatsapp foler with name Databases.
Now open the whatsapp and provide the number and OTP. After OTP is succesfull it will check for the back up and you would be notified that a message backup was foun and asks you to restore or skip the backup.
Now you click on the Restore option. Whatsapp will restore all you old phone data into your new phone.
