Sammods Whatsapp Beta mod messages backup and restore - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello friends, there is a modded WhatsApp application made by a manufacturer called sammods, those who know know it as WhatsApp beta. Normally, when the new version came, when I removed the previous one, there was a phrase like keep this many files. When I installed the new APK on my Samsung phone, all the messages remained as they were. Anyway, I did this, but all my messages are gone, only the groups I've been attached to, all my messages are gone, in short. When I add the folders with my old messages to the new folder, the application sees the messages. I say restore but it doesn't come back. What can I do except drink cold water

Re-organizing SMS/Text messages, and backup utlities

I used PIM Backup to backp my text messages, but it is ridiculously outdated at this point and development seems to have stopped forever ago... and appears to have a major flaw, it doesn't save threaded messages.
Whenever I do a restore, not only does my pone remain unresponsive for practically a day after the restore finishes as it gets it's bearings.... but the messages only show my side of the conversation, even though it appears to have restored both sides (I think their responses come before the very first reply of mine).
So first of all before I even find a better backup tool, I first need a way to re-organize and re-thread my messages. Is there any way to do this?
And of course, what (preferably free) backup tool would you recommend? Since I am experimenting with different roms, I just want my contacts, call logs, text logs, etc to be backed up, not my settings or apps or anything like that.
resco backup, but it's not free
use Microsoft Myphone. It's free, it's easy, it's auto-scheduled, viewable from the internet using any web browser, works on any wm phone and works great even if you're using a ROM.
Well, first of all I want to know if there is any way to fix this unthreaded messages issue.
And doesn't MyPhone just sync contacts and e-mails? I want all my of call and text logs saved too.
myphone syncs text messages.
can also backup mydocument folder and others as well.
I have been using it since it came out.
Works great. My syncs every morning at 4am.

Undeletable messages in Messaging + missing Skype contacts in phonebook

Here's an odd question about two things (prompted by seeing a thread about corrupt images on the Xperia S).
Firstly, ever since copying over data from my review Xperia S to the Xperia S I actually bought (using MyBackup Pro), I've had two messages in the Messages app called 'Draft' which have no text and no recipient.
What's more, no matter what I do I cannot delete them. Well, I can try - but they remain there. Any advice on how to delete them without a complete reset?
The second issue is that the phone was set to sync my Skype contacts but when I went to call a Skype contact with the ordinary phone app (not wanting to use Skype to dial), I couldn't find the contact. When looking through, he wasn't there.
So I copied down the number from Skype (no cut and paste from contacts there unfortunately) and manually added the contact. Then when I called him, I saw the photo of the person on the screen so clearly the contact WAS already in my phonebook somewhere, along with the mobile number!
When I later looked on www.google.com/contacts it turned out that I had this contact in the phonebook THREE times (including the manually entered data). After merging and resyncing, all of the data showed up in one entry. As far as I can see, there's no way to filter out Skype contacts (just contacts without a phone number, which these mostly have).
I hope that these issues will be fixed come ICS, but has anyone else had similar problems? I really don't want to reset the phone to clear out any corrupt data, and the phone isn't rooted.

Managing large volumes of SMS

Hey guys, I was hoping you might be able to help me with a problem I've been having.
I have an HTC One, stock rom with custom launcher/home screen.etc, and I am trying to manage a very large volume of sms (50,000+).
When I first got this phone, I never told it to delete old messages as I liked to create backups. However, now the phone is just too bogged down as a result of all these messages.
I would like to have the phone start deleting messages once they get above a certain number. So to do this, I created a backup of all the SMS messages using the HTC stock messaging app as well as the SMS backup+ app. I then deleted all the messages, and used the stock SMS restore feature with the "delete old messages" option selected under the settings.
The problem is this thing has been running for 6 hours now, and I am not sure it is getting anywhere. How would you guys handle this situation?
Thanks for your help!

[Q] android tuner and titanium backup query

I came across something today that I would like to ask, everyone knows that when your going to make a phone call go online or send a message that android asks you what you want to use, like for instance usually when I send someone a message it asks how I want to send it through hangouts, text message, whats app etc etc, but today I noticed that it asked me if I wanted to send my message using titanium backup or android tuner, why is this? Can you actually use them to send messages? As your probably aware I am new to android and rooting so no very little, so any info on this would be great thanks very much.

How to access message data from viber_messages and viber_messages-journal?

Hi,
A few yers ago I bought a new phone. Prior to that all my messages were on an old phone, that originally had a SIM card that I stopped using. But I continued using Viber on the phone, despite having a new phone number. I didn't change the phone number in Viber.
When I got the new phone, I launched Viber entered my new number. Then on old phone I switched phone number in Viber to new number.
Now, my order of operations here were catastrophic. I hadn't backed up my viber messages on old phone, so what happened was I lost all my old viber messages.
On the old phone in /data/data/com.viber.voip/databases I see the file viber_messages-journal. It is about 8MB. It has my old message data in some form, because when I viewed the file I saw old messages I was looking for. Some of the messages were in Russian, and oddly enough when I open the file now I can't view the Russian text. In any case, I believe this file holds the key to me being able to get my old messages into the message database.
Any ideas?
thanks
