You can use Jeyo mobile companion, it´s definitly a MUST HAVE if you own a pocket pc phone edition
It imports and exports, sms, sent, received, outbox, etc, save call history, missed, incoming, etc save contacts, a real alternative to outlook, manage sim card and more.
It rocks!

Sms to desktop PC
You can export all of your messages (sms, mms, e-mail) with allexport.exe. And you are able to move the exported .txt files anywhere (desktop pc too) with your activesync (explore function).
You can set the autoexport function too: automatic export on every incoming messages.
It's FREEWARE!!!
You can download this program from:
xpocketpc.fw.hu
And you can find more informacion about it:

Something to share...

Hi to all members! I would just like to share to you the ring tone I'm using on my xda. Kinda different from all other ring tones commonly used. Here I used Windows XP Speech module program (in Control Panel, you'll find this menu). Go to Text to Speech tab and just type in any message you want, and let the computer speak for you. Just use Windows Recorder or any other sound recording program (i.e. Nero Wave Editor) to capture the digital voice generated. Enhance the sound and save it as .WAV file. You can download the sample Uhhh, planning to attach the sound file (my ring tone) but, there seems to be no option for attachment. Anyway, after you created voice ring tones, load this as your ring tone, when you receive incoming calls, your friends will be surprised and think they're at the Airport (something like "paging Mr......, you have an incoming call").
On the other hand--the SMSExport I installed in my xda doesn't seemed to work..it cannot even "see" my previous and new text messages. Is there any other way I can export my SMS text messages to computer (possibly upload using ActiveSynch), so I can have them printed or archive to disk? Tried also, Message Master Client Server, however it can't transmit SMS using SIM card install (or the xda radio system itself). You have to use an external phone (via infrared) to transmit SMS. Anybody can help us out on this?
Finally, I still have other things to share, but I cannot dig them out from my hard disk...perhaps next time..
Regards to all!

Export SMS messages from XDA-O2 to desktop/notebook PC

Please can anyone tell me if there's a way to save/export SMS messages to a notebook/desktop computer.
PLEASE HELP
Sorry cant help you there m8
But I've found it damn annoying that activestink cant syncronize your sms messages the same way it does for your mails...
I doubt it would have been too hard to include a plugin which acted like the notes in outlook that archived your sms messages...
Microsoft cutting corners again I wonder?
Does anyone have any cool sms utils for their PE edition phone? I've seen some around but never tried them because the XDA already has that feature... just wondering if they were any decent

Yorch has a utility to export the sms messages but not sure that you can read them on desktop, I think it's just a import/export tool. Check on yorch.net.

I can't receive vCards by sms, is it just me?

In my XDA with AT&T latest ROM, I can't receive any vCard by sms! I've tried sending them from my Nokia 6310i both in single phone number and full details mode. The Nokia phone says the vCard has been sent but I don't get anything in the XDA. Sending vCards by sms to other phones obvioulsy works.
Is it just me? Is it a bug or is it a 'feature'?
thanx
PS: do you know of any XDA proggie that will receive/send vCards?
Yeah, me too. I think it must be the setting problem.
However, I don't think anyone can answer me in HK cause I am using WM2003 with ExWAP v2 (downloaded from Yoret.net).
The setting I can see from the official CSL website couldn't tell me how to set it up with my xda1.
cant claim i know what vcard really mean but google give some hits when you search on vcard pocketpc

I have never tried sending/receiving Vcards via SMS, but I have sent & received via IR.
PPC 2003 allows you to receive vCards into contacts and Calendar...however not via SMS indiginously. You need a 3rd party application to do that. If you do a search for "SMS" at either http://www.pocketgear.com or http://www.handango.com you will find the app I'm talking about. Cant remember what its called though, easy to find click through all the pages. :wink:
Thanks for your answers. All soft I have found just manages the vCards stored in the PocketPC. Some let you even send them through email. But I have not found any program that emulates Nokia phone's capabilities of receiving an specially crafted SMS with the vCard inside.
I find interesting is the fact that when you send an sms with an vCard inside from a Nokia phone to another phone (without vCard funcionality), it displays the message in raw format:
BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:2.1
N:John
TEL;WORK;VOICE:5551234567
END:VCARD
However, my XDA I (WindowsCE 2003) silently ignores such sms while it's happy to receive regular ones!!!
This vCard through SMS capability is probably Nokia-specific... it would ne nice if some one implemented it for PocketPC devices. I'm sure there's a market for it!

i8910 sms to android

Hey, i have just got an s2 and was wondering if theres anyway to export the texts from my i8910 to my s2. I haven't been able to find any way currently so any help would be great.
Thanks
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
dont think its possible but maybe im wrong!? (try to save em with samsung sync programm (maybe need some converter))
thanks for the suggestion, but yeah kies doesn't recognise the i8910 only PC Suite or whatever it's called does. And i have the messages exported in both .txt and .xml format but any programs i've found crash at trying to import the .xml. I might email the dev of the app I was using to import. As it would be a shame to loose all my texts (I have over 2000)
Thanks, john
Just bumping this up again as just received my S2 yesterday having had the i8910 for 2 and a half years!
Been trying for hours to try and transfer the SMS from the i8910 to the S2 but no luck at all despite using all the recommended software from all the forums around the net!! I use the firmware where you can have the phoneID as a Nokia N8, 5800 or a Sony Vivaz so not sure if anyone has managed to use other backup software for their i8910 to get the SMS transferred to the S2??!?
Does anyone have an idea if the i8910 SMS messages can be transferred to the S2?
Thanks for reading and thanks in advance for any help of pointers!!
Hi there,
Yeah I had the same problem as you and spent ages trying loads of different methods. The only one that worked for me in the end was the SPB Migration Tool which you get from the android market store. it is not free however. After you have done that you have to download the symbian app and back everything up to their server, then you have to redownload it on your s2. See here for more information: http://spb.com/android-software/migration and then migrate from symbian near the bottom.
Good luck!
Being a cheapskate I tried to transfer over the SMS messages for no cost!
The way I did it was to firstly use Samsung PC Studio 7 (you can also use Nokia Suite) to backup the i8910 phone - you get a .nbu file(s) using either program.
I then downloaded "NbuExplorer" which reads the .nbu files. Using NbuExplorer I then copied over the text messages to my laptop hard drive into different folders - Inbox, Sent and Drafts etc. You get loads of .vmg files for each individual SMS.
Then downloaded a program called "ABC Amber Nokia Converter". Used this program to convert the .vmg files into a .csv file which can be read by Microsoft Excel - you get a spreadsheet with various headings for an SMS message.
Then I downloaded a free Android app called "SMS to Text". I only had two texts on my Galaxy S2 - one inbox and one sent. Used this "SMS to Text" program to export a text file with these two SMS messages on them. The resulting .txt file I opened up in Notepad - this .txt file shows you what way the data is arranged by "SMS to Text" for it to import via a .txt file. Copied and pasted what was displayed in Notepad into a new Excel spreadsheet - this would now be the template to import my i8910 SMS messages.
With the .csv file I got from using ""ABC Amber Nokia Converter", I made sure this .csv file was in the exact way that the .txt file from "SMS to Text" had been displayed in Notepad. You've got to play around with the cell formatting options in Excel to get the right hh:mm:ss for the time of the SMS column etc.
When the Excel spreadsheet has been formatted in the right way, copy and paste what is in the cells to Notepad. Save the Notepad as a .txt file. Transfer this newly created .txt file to a microSD card or onto the Galaxy S2 phone and then use "SMS to Text" on your phone to import this newly created .txt file.
To say this was a long hard struggle would be an understatement!!
I have a suggestion for future reference.
Get SMS Backup+ (Market link).
It will backup all your SMS to a label/folder in your Gmail account, called SMS. You can do this manually or set it to do it automatically. Then, you can restore your messages back whenever you want, whether it be because you've flashed a new ROM or got a brand new phone. You'll have your SMS intact for as long as you have Android and that software is supported.
It's a great bit of software - one of the first things I install after a flash.

[Q] SMS and MMS from my computer

I would like to be able to write SMS and MMS from my computer instead of directly on my Galaxy S4.
There are many programs, but I have not been able to find one where I can send MMS.
MightyText have the option to attach a file, but the message and the file will never reach the recipient.
Seeking proposals for programs that can send SMS and MMS via computer.
