I just came here from my gs4 today but I'm having issues trying to restore my sms from the app sms back up. It gave me my call log but with no contacts attached the the calls but it didn't give me a single text message. I've tried it 3 times...it just tells me "13000 duplicates". I just googled it and I guess the back up is placed on my sdcard on my other phone. I just dropped it in and I'm currently waiting to see if this restore will work. Has anyone else done this yet?

Same result after the latest restore. Never had an issue before. Any ideas?

if there is still a problem, go to your local AT&T store... if they have a celibrate machine.. .which 90% of them do, they can transfer sms from one phone to another no problem
I found an option within the phones settings that transfers data from your previous phone to the HTC one. You need to install HTC transfer from the playstore on the old device. Music, photos and bookmarks transfered fine but the texts still didnt. Oh well...at least I got the important stuff. Nice feature BTW

I would think each device has a certain file [email protected] back up files for sms and they are different between the two your trying transfer from...thats prolly the issue....as suggested the store usually can transfer them without an issue
if you are rooted, Try app ops on the play store (by Lars something). Enable it and go to its menu and find your backup app. Then enable write permission

I have the new facebook app but for some reason i dont see any pictures, just gray squares, this happens on both the app and the stock browser and dolphin browser.
I have cleared Data and Cache, and it helped a little bit, i now can see the persons default pic but as for photos they have posted i still get gray squares.
does any one else have this issue? or know how to fix it?
No one else has this problem?

Yeah, I've been seeing the same thing. On my device, though, the problem only shows up when using the T-Mobile network; everything looks fine via WiFi.

It might be that your using too much data on your plan. If your not on an unlimited plan, expect those gray boxes

Looking for a messaging APK that can be side loaded to my jetstream. If I send a text to my # from my phone it goes through but I have nothing to view it with... Or a good alternative app. I have text plus but want to use my number and go native if possible

How does messaging work when I only have a data plan? My messages do not go through. no notifications or such for them.

You can use text plus in the market or other apps. I installed text plus yesterday and it works fine, I would just prefer it being native.
PS. You can also use an art app that well connect your phone to your tab and let you sync both.

If you have an at&t smartphone just download at&t messages. Thats what i use. It syncs text messages between my phone, tablet and pc, and i can send/receive from any of them.

Installed handcent. Works fine. Alittle buggy with the contact sync'n but works. Any way to get the MMS to work? I know the Jetstream is locked down to at&t which is fine but you can't edit the APN to ad the MMS settings. I'm sure it will work if we can just edit that APN. I know the tablet can be unlocked to allow this with other carriers but how do we unlock it with at&t to be able to edit the apn settings..?
What extra fees would be applied to my account if I used this?
I only have a data account. No phone.
I use Sprint for cel phone.
I don't see a need to use the messaging on my jetstream. It would be awesome to sync my texts from Sprint, but thats probably impossible coming across two networks like that.
If you are not using att sync, which only works with an att phone, you get charge a per text fee

There are several Messaging options from your JetStream
Whatsapp - Installed & working on my device - allow sending to & from the device to any other mobiles (Text/ pictures / clips) - works perfect - No need to root or anything.
GO SMS Pro - works perfect on my rooted JetStream - with Notification of incoming SMS, allow me to send SMS from my JetStream to any mobile or receive SMS directly to my JetStream - I am using an ORANGE sim card after i SIM Unlocked my Jetstream.
Also after unlocking the Bootloader and root , i have the Phone icon, with the Phone dialer, allow me to dial from my Jetstream - generate a call, but no voice on both sides (this still need to be solved ) .
i installed handcent today and finally was able to create my online ATT account. I had to send a text to my device but it didn't have a native sms app to receive the text from ATT. (good job ATT).
But...handcent is just an overload for me. Could they possibly add another option for customizaton? Lol it would take me a whole day to go through the settings menu. I would prefer something plain and simple. Just my taste.
I'm having a weird issue that I can't quite figure out the cause of. I have my Sprint S3 rooted and have flashed the Blazer ROM 1.6 on it. I haven't had any issues that I know of until now. I have my work email, which is run on a Microsoft Exchange Server, hooked up to my phone. I get notifications fine, emails, invites, etc. However, randomly, emails will not show up in their entirety. It will show 5 or 6 lines of the email and then nothing else. If I forward the email to another account, like my gmail account, the entire email is there.
Has anyone else seen this issue? I have tried searching and can't find anyone else with the issue. I thought at first it was my particular phone, but I returned it and got another S3 and the same thing happens.
Right now I have it back to stock, still rooted, and I'm not seeing the issue. That's what's making me think it might have to do with the Blazer ROM.
Hopefully someone else has come across this issue.
Should be in the Blazer thread not General......
You might try a full wipe and reflash. I have not heard reports of truncated messages.

I'm glade you like it as I have been using it for quite sometime now. I like that you can back it up in TB and take it with you from rom to rom. Plus you don't have to lock down your phone, just lock the email application itself.

What exactly do you mean by not having to lock down your phone, just lock the email application itself? You mean securing it so no one can get into your email?

I have a nandroid backup of my phone. I also have a tablet. Is it possible to advanced restore the data from my phone onto my tablet?
Story is : Phone broke with sim card.... don't know why
Sent it off for repairs....
Forgetting I have two step verification for my Google account
Installed new ROM on tablet with full wipe andwithout nandroiding
I need to access my account without my phone and I don't have backup codes. So the idea was: to restore the google account information from the nandroid of the phone to the tablet.
Does anyone know if this will work?
Are there any other ways of getting my account to work?
Thanks for your help

So im assuming you did the codes via sms? On the phone that youre using right now. Or at least a phone with your sim card installed so it gets the same phone # try to login by getting the text

The sim card also broke so i cant receive any texts: I need to order another one ( I'm on pay as you go) and change the number. But I was wondering if there was another way of accessing my account while waiting for the new sim.
I feel your pain bro. Im trying to think of ways but cant. Have you checked any computers you might have left logged in. That way you can print some codes from google.com/accounts

TB has a feature to put a zip onto the SD card. So you can flash it from recovery to access TB without having access to Google Play (as you don't have authenticate).
Another option is to use one of the one time passwords which you must generate when you activate 2 step verification.
Thanks for everyone trying to help I managed to get a new sim card today so I can access my account now. I have learned a valuable lesson

I just set this up using DeskSMS / TabletSMS. The text messages send via my phone (and are also visible on my PC via a Chrome plug-in). I am very happy with it.
Of course it requires the phone to have an active data connection as well as the tablet, so that might not be what you are looking for.
Is there way to use tablet talk without the headset? Talk through the tablets microphone and hear through the speakers?
