HOW TO USE:

1. Root your android phone or use any other method to get access to the folder 
/data/data/com.whatsapp/databases

2. copy the files "msgstore.db" and "wa.db" to a certain folder of your computer

You can do this by using the App RootExplorer (first copy to SD, then mount 
phone to computer), or using adb method, or something else

3. Download and Install Python http://www.python.org/getit/

4. Extract this archive (whatsapp_xtract.py, whatsapp_xtract.bat, folders emoji 
and sort-table) to the certain folder and run whatsapp_xtract.bat

5. Once finished, your browser will open and show you your chats. 

The resulting file size of the .htm file will be slightly bigger than the size 
of the .db database. 

On windows you can use a whatsapp_xtract.bat to easier start the Extraction. 
Content of whatsapp_xtract.bat:
whatsapp_xtract.py -i msgstore.db -w wa.db
