Does anyone know a program (Titanium does it but only for same version android) that can back up and restore SMS (in stock messanger) between different version of android (ie from 2.2 --> 2.3.5)? As stated before, Titanium is fine, but only works when restoring to the same version (ie 2.2 --> 2.2)
Try sms backup and restore from the market. If you use a third party app like gosms it might have an option to backup and restore as well.

Worked flawless for me countless times. +1
SMS Backup works well.
I haven't used it in a while though since I switched to GoSMS (actually Go everything.) GoSMS allows you to easily email it to yourself (populates the To: line and everything) on a scheduled backup. This is nice for those "oops" moments. Like one time I deleted an entire thread instead of one message. Plus I like the Go SMS widgets.
SMS Backup is the best!

Wondering if anyone can help me out... I backed up my text messages with Ti Pro like I have done many times before ( Back up [SMS/MMS/APN]). I usually don't have any trouble restoring my text messages by simply restoring from TI Pro and rebooting. However, This is my first install of Vanilla AOSP VooDoo and when I restore/reboot the messages are cleared, but not restored. Any ideas? Do I need to move the database to a different location? Thanks in advance for the help!
P.S. I'm coming from DJ05 to Vanilla AOSP
I've never trusted TiBu with my SMS or call logs, so I wouldn't know. BUT, you can try reverting back to the ROM you were just on, restoring, then using an app called "SMS Backup & Restore", free on the market. It will backup SMS to an XML file on your SD Card. Then flash back to AOSP and use the same app to restore from file.
Maybe not the answer you were looking for but it's a solid work-around.

No other ideas then? It would be interesting to know what went wrong since it will probably apply to cm7 and minuit and the like

If the messages were backed up from the touchwiz mms app, then that's the only app that they are going to restore to.
I'd like to know if there are any efficient and dependable apps for Syncing (Both Backup And Restore) SMSes with GMail.
I tried SMS Backup+; it does backup all the SMSes to GMail pretty well, but when it comes to restoring it - does not restore all the SMSes.
I tried many other apps as well... All of 'em seem to have a problem with restoring the SMSes.
So, I'd like y'all to suggest some good apps that serves my purpose.
Thank You.

Tried that too.
It doesn't restore all my Text Messages either.
I was wondering how I can backup all my SMS messages and my os settings and cm7 settings?

Don't know about settings. But for SMS just check the market for one of the apps that backup your SMS/MMS/Call log to gmail.

Just download Titanium backup from the market (free version).
Once you run it hit the context menu button, and tap batch. From here you can do a full backup of all your data and apps.
Finally once the batch backup of everything is done upgrade your ROM and reinstall Titanium Backup, open it and navigate to the backup/restore tab and you'll see all your previouse backups. You can now restore anything you had preiciously including system apps, games and their data, messages, contacts, and pretty much anything on your phone. Just make sure that if you want the data back for the app when you go to restore it you tap restore app + data.
Hope this helps

One thing I can't find out how to restore with titanium backup is my text messages...
I assume its more than just the messages, and it probably a data base that needs restored...thanks in advance.

SMS Backup + works great. Backs up both call logs, and SMS/MMS to the cloud.

Another vote for SMS Backup+. Has never failed me after countless restores. Also nice to search through my texts in gmail.
Mybackup root also does this.

I find MyBackup works pretty good. It can also restore your MMS pics as well.
Titanium Backup works too. Find "Messages (SMS & MMS)" in the list.
I also like MyBackup. It's very easy on the eyes and does the job. I've restored my sms a couple times flawlessly.
i use Sms backup and restore.. it backs up both you text and pics into a single .xml file.. and it also restores it the way you had it before backing it up. it also checks for and add an duplicate. you cand find the app here on google play https://play.google.com/store/apps/...mNvbS5yaXRlc2hzYWh1LlNNU0JhY2t1cFJlc3RvcmUiXQ..
I use go backup from go launcher team. Interface is easier

thanks for the suggestions. trying mybackup right now. i tried titanium in the past and for whatever reason restoring the messages data between neo's adrenaline and his aokp realy messes up the system so i've decided to stay away from that. and i like sms backup restore too except for that face that it takes forever
