**<span id="fix">Fixing broken backups</span>**

> [!IMPORTANT]
> Around version 6.26 of Signal Android (circa July 2023), the backup format was changed in a way that makes it impossible to recover from data corruption that happens across fame boundaries. This functionality is disabled for newer backups. In other cases (corruption within a single frame, the occasional bug in Signal), part of the data could possibly still be recovered, though it might require a custom function. You could always open an issue if you need help. Note that this type of corruption, where only a single frame is affected, is rare and recent versions of Signal Android usually deal with this case quite well.
