If the Google Drive backup is corrupted, no way to restore it. However, the local backup may still be good. It is located at the Android > media > com.whatsapp folder. Use a file manager to browse the folder.

whenever i format phone or change phone, the restore took so many hours.

And I encountered the same as what the TS encountered, it corrupted halfway and can't get full restoration. Tried many ways and have no solution at all. At last, I gave up to all messages and history and started with clean and empty account.

It is not due to remote backup file issue, it is due to database.

I encountered the same issue before. Even restoration from local backup file is still the same.

The restoration corrupted at certain percentage, say 51%... then it stopped and corrupted the whole.
