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.

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.
