hi guys,
i just flashed my x10 to froyo from the original 2.1 rom. Before that i've backup my contacts with backup & restore application now i have the apk as well but i cannot install in on my froyo.. i need help if anyone can make the apk compatible with froyo or guide on how to install it using xrecovery.
Probably not so easily done.
I'd suggest flashing back to Stock and backing it up with another method.

thx for the help.... thumps up!!!
My backup pro restored my messages but failed to restore contacts
my contacts are always just backed up to my google account automatically so I've never worried about those.
And the SE Backup and Restore app will not work on any rom that isn't created by SE.
Okay so maybe some one can help me here. I am trying to restore my texts via Titanium Backup, but for some reason it seems like they don't want to show up. I was thinking it could be because due to the fact the last rom I used was Blur based GB rom(from the D2 leak), and my current rom is a stock CM7 based rom, but I doubt that could be it? Before the GB I was a latest on a stock Froyo(i.e. no Blur) rom, and my text with ease showed up the Blur sms software when I moved to the GB rom. Any ideas on what I could do? Thanks
There is a program in the market called sms backup and restore. Give that a try

I fixed the issue(well the text is there but its out of order which is better than nothing I guess), by enabling migrate system data in Titanium Backup.
Hi everyone
First i'd like to say sorry for my english, because its not very good, but i hope we will understand each other
I installed my first custom ROM today, its a Jelly Blast from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33769086
I used an app called "SMS Backup & Restore" from google play to save my messages. This app saves msgs in a .xml format. After installing this ROM i restored all apps with "Titanium Backup", got into "SMS Backup.." and tried to restore my msgs. It was a long process, almost an hour of waiting (i have over 9000 messages), but everything seemed to be ok. After this i got into messaging and all i saw was "messaging not responding"...
I tried to download Go SMS, but the same thing happens.
I really need these messages, can i do something with it?

You can restore SMS through Titanium Backup, you don't need a separate app for it. I think you should go back to stock, use Titanium Backup to backup SMS, flash it again, download Titanium Backup,select the backup and then choose restore data only. That's how I did it with all the roms I have flashed , including Jelly Blast.

I use MyBackup Pro to backup my sms ..and some not so important apps that I rather restore than install them again. But I noticed that I can not restore SMS when I backing up SMS from CM10.2 and then flashing CM11 rom or any other kitkat roms. The hangout app or if I install the aosp stock sms app remains empty with no restored text messages
I can not make a backup with a kitkat rom and get it to restore. The app says successfull but the texting app remains empty..
Hmm how do I solve this? I have never gotten Titanium to work to restore text messages either but that was way back with my HTC Desire..
Any alternative apps that works if MyBackup Pro does not do the trick?

dude ...this was a long time ago before developers added kitkat support. Just download the latest version :good:
They might not have updated it to support KK yet (edit: they just updated the app yesterday to v4.0.9 for better KK support - try to update the app and retry). The system needs to switch to the restore app as the main Messaging app during restore and then switch back. Titanium Backup does support this. I've used it dozens of times for this purpose on stock and CM11 based roms.
I tried installing Dirty Unicorn ROM last night, and had a couple fc's, but nothing major. However, when I tried using Titanium Backup to restore my SMS messages and call log, it asked to set Titanium Backup as default messaging app. I think this is a new thing with KK ROMS, but once it did that, every time I tried opening up my regular SMS app, it would force close.
I eventually just gave up and restored my nandroid of the Sense 5 ROM I got from Captain's RUU thread.
I guess my question is, (for those of you who do try to keep your messages between ROM Installs) how do you do it? I think I'm doing something wrong.
I've successfully used SMS Backup & Restore to accomplish this when moving between versions of CM. You should be able to set the default SMS app back to your original SMS app after restoring the messages. There is no need to leave Titanium as the SMS app after the messages have been restored.
