How to Extend Whatsapp File Sharing to 2GB



Imaging you recorded videos with your device, took pictures and all that, only for you to discover that you can’t send file more than 16MB on your whatsapp … so annoying and disgusting.






Even the so called Whatsapp Plus exceeded the 16mb to 60MB but wait a minute! What if you want to send file of 1GB and above to your friends far away, how are you going to do that?

I love whatsapp , I cherish Whatsapp because it totally dusted 2GO out of existence but I hate the limitation of file sharing of 16MB… So I’m going to show you how to break that limit or extend that 16MB to upto 2GB ( 2048MB ). Meaning after this tutorial, you can even send a season movies uncompressed without any Whatsapp police arresting you.

Requirements

==>A rooted Android Device.
==>Download and install Root browser here

How Can I Extend My Whatsapp File Sharing
to 2GB (2048)?

1. Once the Root Browse is installed, open it.
2. Grant the Super SU Permission.
3. Make Sure that you already have the WhatsApp installed and Logged-in.
4. Navigate to Data> Data.
5. Browse and Locate the com.whatsapp, open it.
6. Open the Shared_prefs folder.
7. Locate the com.whatsapp_preferences.xml file.
8. Long press and Open the file in RB Text Editor.
9. Now Search for this line : <int name=”media_limit_mb” value=”16″ />
10. Now all you need to do is to change the Value from 0-2048, since the memory is measured in MBs, so technically 2048MB is 2GB.
11. Save and Exit the file.
12. Exit the Root Browser.
13. Now try to send a file larger than 16MB and if it works, that means you have succeeded.


Enjoy! But if this does anything to your WhatsApp profile and media,we are not liable to pay any damage.



Note

Please The only disadvantage of this is that if you reboot your smartphone too many times, it will reset back to default or if there is an update available. But you can always repeat the steps and increase your file sending limits.
