Hey guys...
I've got a new annoing problem with my HD2... (official Firmware)
I just updated my phone with the new 3.14 Firmware and restore my Data with spb-Backup... everything seems to work fine, BUT my HD2 won't save the sms history in the contacts now.
If I get a new sms I see it normally in the messaging tab, but if I want to answer in the message window of the contact it won't show ANY sms - not even my own sended ones.
The inbox menu in traditional mode works normally and shows any received sms.
Hope you understand me, my english is not the best.
Any ideas?
No ideas? I don't want to hardreset my phone again...
maybe backup of SMSes with PIM Backup, then deleting all messages and restore back could help?
I have the same problem on my hd2. If I switch to "traditional mode" The history is showing, but not in "conversation mode" (Don't know if that's what its called in English)
It happened after I updated the rom to the latest official HTC ROM. (3.14)
It's really annoying
happened to have the same problem today, tested PIM Backup, helped with mine:
1. install PIM Backup
2. backup only Messages
3 restore Messages:
- "Text Messages" checked, below that "Conversations" box unchecked (not sure if it's necessary), "Inbox" and "Sent Items" checked
- Message restore options: Delete all existing messages from the Database
4. soft reset

try repeating the above procedure with one addition - delete contents of Windows\Messaging folder after step 2,
I'm not sure if and how it affects stored email messages so it could be a good idea to make full backup first if you keep any important emails

I had the same problem. The problem is when you restore your messages using PIM Backup, 3.14 does not sense the messages at all. I personally think the new 3.14 loads sms's to another folder than before thus we can't see it under threaded but when you look at traditional it shows all the pervious messages meaning it might be in a sub-directory in the folder. Just an idea.
To my knowledge there is no way of getting it to show in all your messages. I would recommend just to delete all your messages and start from scratch or load another rom, maybe 2.07 or something.
I can speak only for myself, but for me PIM Backup + deleting files in Windows\Messaging folder works - tested it few times just to be sure.
On my device restoring the messages with PIM backup brings back files in this folder, and then SMS threads reapear.
It looks like if the SMS thread information was stored in all the files inside Windows\Messaging - I wonder if anyone could confirm this?
My messages folder is empty, and I also tried to delete all messages including the folder to see if the new messages would line up in conversation mode without restoring any messages, but it didn't help.
I'll try a hard reset once I've made a backup of everything except my messages. If that doesn't work I might consider downgrading the ROM.
hi.
i want to migrate about 20k sms from a sgs1 @ darky/semaphore to my new nexus @ aokp/franco.
testing several apps and tools, effect is always the same:
backup finished, 10k unread sms displayed and when i want to open them, there are no conversations and it wants to refresh for an endless time.
i used sms backup/restore, myphoneexplorer, titanium backup, my backup, yaffs extractor and a manual copy of the mmssms.db...nothing worked for me.
strange:
i tested the sms debugging script by Honusnap and after that, i could access all sms.
but because of an error, i could not send sms anymore.
help?
I moved from pacman android 4.2 to pacman android 4.3.
TB did backups of call log and SMS via XML.
But when I tried to restore call log, nothing changes in the dialer app.
When I tried to restore SMS, I see all my old SMS for about a second before they all disappear again. I don't have the "prune old SMS" setting on, so all SMS should stay there forever.
Any help?
I tried it with 3 other restorer apps and none of them work either. I'm starting to think that the rom stores the data in a unique way that no standard rom uses? I don't know.
I just rooted my phone to install the Google edition ROM but before I did I backed up my texts using Wondershare MobileGo. I've used this program to backup and restore messages, contacts, photos, etc. on my phone many times before and on previous phones and it has worked fine. But this time when I try to restore my messages they don't show up on my phone. To be specific, when I first do the restore the threads will show up under the contact name but there will be no messages when I open the thread. Soon after they just all disappear (only the restored messages, not any new ones). It seems like they're getting deleted as they're empty threads but that's just a guess. I thought it might have been a problem when doing the backup so I opened up the file (.sms file) in notepad and all the messages are there. I think it has something to do with Kit Kat but I've never encountered this problem before.
So does anyone know how I could restore my messages from the .sms file I was given from the backup or why the messages don't show up on my phone? Thanks!
Hi,
Is there an app that backups & restores these things (and maybe more):
1. All apps data
2. All photos (camera, whatsapp, mms)
3. SMS messages, preferably to GMail
4. WhatsApp messages ("exploded" - meaning, not just upload the msgstore.db file)
I'm looking for something automatic, that will backup things as they arrive (e.g. after I take a photo), or hourly/nightly, and that knows to upload the new data to a cloud service.
I know a mix of Titanium & Google + & SMS Backup+ can do these things (SMS Backup+ can't restore whatsapp messages and only backsup nightly, not as whatsapp messages arrives, and can't backup crypt7 files (tri-crypt can decrypt, but for me SMS backup didn't trigger afterwards)). Titanium also failed to upload backups for me (for reasons unclear. the message it gives in the notification is cut off)
Nandroid backup will contain everything, but can't be done nightly and the file is huge, so can't be uploaded. I think it also means that if I change phones, it can't be used for restore.
Basically, I don't want to mess with it. Have it work in the background, send everything to a cloud storage and allow me to restore, even if I switched to a new phone.
