Hi Guys,
I used to own a Z5 Compact till yesterday when I traded it in. In my stupidity I didn't use to native transfer app to transfer from the Xperia to the new HTC. But i did do a backup for the Z5 on my sdcard for my contacts, sms, call logs etc.
Now I would like to know how can I extract from these backups? To clarify it's not the .dbk file. The files I have are like "CONTACTS" and "CONTACTS_meta".
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Omer

"Dear Sir/Mdm,
My name is Devin Jadewood.
I am emailing the developer of GO Backup for help regarding the restoration of a backup I created using your excellent software GO Backup.
GO Backup is very useful in backing up and restoring my data.
However, i changed recently from Sony Xperia X10 phone to Sony Xperia U phone.
So, I wanted to restore my backup of Sony Xperia X10 phone to Sony Xperia U phone.
Then, unfortunately, i accidentally deleted the GO Backup folder from the Sony Xperia 10 phone microSD card thinking that there was no backup.
But, I had pressed 'extract text messages from backup' option last time.
So, I noticed that there is still a "messages_gobackup_2012-07-17_12-49-57" xml file in the root folder of the microSD card.
Please tell me how do I restore it to my new Sony Xperia U phone.
Thankyou for your kind attention.
I would appreciate it if you help me.
Devin Jadewood."
also i tried using other backup apps to restore the xml file but the xml file was not compatible.
computer softwares to decode the xml files also dont work as i have no xls stylesheet for this file.
i tried xls stylesheet of other sms backup apps and they are not compatible.
pls help. thankyou very much

Have you tried creating a backup on your new phone, then go to the folder where the backup was created, and replace the file with your old backup. Then restore it.

Hey guys, please help!
Anybody knows location of Xperia Neo L contacts database?
My friend made backup of contacts on SD card but he forgot to copy them to PC before he formatted it...and I installed him CM10 so they are gone for good.
I made CWM backup of stock ICS ROM but I can't find contacts database. I searched in \data\com.android.providers.contacts\databases\contacts2.db but it is empty. Other databases I have searched also doesent contain contacts.
Before everything I also made Titanium backup, but it also can't restore contacts....very strange.
I tought, with 3 backups, what can go wrong?
Little more searching paid off!
Everything is in \data\com.sonyericsson.eventstream\databases\eventstream.db, contacts are in "friend" table and calls&messages are in "event" table!
I'm so happy
