Is WA using the same keys for the crypt14 databases? #152

I lost my WA chat history and reinstalled it to load the google drive backup, but the backupfile is somehow corrupted... It skips right trough to 100% restored and then "unable to restore your messages" Since then I've searched the web to fix this and found this app. Now off to my question: I used another skript to get the key file from the /data/data path but then got an error "in 99% this means wrong key" The backup file is from july 7 and the key was pulled by doing another local backup. I tested it with the same key original backup and it gives me the same error sooo

if someone can help me <3<3

maybe someone also knows how to extract the google drive backups raw data to then get a .db file to recover <3
