Whatsapp backup: Unable to move from windows phone to android Following instructions found on WhatsApp FAQs I created a backup folder on my SD card of my old windows-based phone.

I tried to restore chat history on my new Android phone (LG Leon), with no success. I did the following steps:


removed previous WhatsApp installation on Android
put the sd card with the backup files (files are in SD card in the WhatsApp/WinPhoneBackup folder)
reinstalled WhatsApp
reactivated WhatsApp (sms stuff) and asked to recover backup


Unfortunately there's no way to allow WhatsApp to discover the backup files. Am I doing something wrong?

Some specs:


  Source phone: Nokia Lumia 520, Whatsapp version: 2.12.266
  
  Destination phone: Lg Leon with android 5.0.1, Whatsapp version: 2.12.453
Here I got solution about your question on WhatsApp FAQ page. It says


  You cannot restore the chat history from any other phone type to Windows Phone, or from Windows Phone to another phone type.


This question is possible duplicate of this.
