sms back up - PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General

Hi !
what do i need to back up all my sms to pc?
Activesync doesn't syncronyse them into outlook... =(
full back up is not a way to save them too, as I need to save only them without other info.
and is there a way to read them on pc?
as I understand they are in windows\messaging folder on ppc, but I need some program to read them I believe..

check this one...Personal Mobile Vault http://www.1800message.com/
interesting for me....

thanks, I'll try it
actually i was mistaken when said that i can't read files from windows\messaging folder of ppc.
they are plain text - but there are a lot of empty files - much more than files with text - i think that are remainings from deleted sms.
i made full back up and then did hard reset.
I tried to restore back up - butsome fileswere not restored - as it said files werelocked by some application. but i had no progamms running...
most of that files were just some system files which i don't need. but what is bad - my contacts didn't syncronise =(((
anybody knows what can help?

and I even can't synchronyse by ActiveSync - when i connect my ppc - it shows "Syncranisation error" and all that I can do is exploring device..
If I lost my 500+ phone it's very terrible thing...
can anyone help?
all numbers are stored in outlook - but how can I copy them to ppc?
manully it'll take so long time!!!... =(

well...I found the solution - I hard reseted ppc, than syncronysed it with pc and only after that restored full back up - in that way all contacts are again on their place, and syncronization works now...
anyway I just flashed new rom with fixed cam and with my own ext_rom for russia...=)
thanks PUG
everything seems to work now...exept some *.dll's don't restore from backup, along with contacts...=|
and one more thing I want to know - is there any list what .CAB files in ext_rom are for? I found almost nothing using search - and it was about xdaII not IIi....

Jeyo Mobile Extender for Outlook is your answer
Hiya,
If you are using outlook than you'll want use Jeyo Mobile Extender for Outlook http://www.jeyo.com/extender.asp. It works via activesync. It creates a folder in your .pst and from there you can completely control your sms on your mobile. You can send and receive sms to your pc while the XDA is cradled (or wifi activesync), backup sms from the XDA to pc or vice versa... well worth it! I've been using it for months - since I had a problem like yours.

Before I last did a hard reset, I used smsBackup. It's freeware, it involves a little manual shuffling of files around, but it worked great for me in saving all of my SMSes (although for some reason I made a mistake and it saved everything twice, but hey no big deal).

Guys, guys, guys!!!
smsBackup is NOT freeware! I downloaded a lot of versions (with crack) and none of them worked after installation!
For me only 2.41 from the producer's website is working, but I can't find any crack...
Any help would be highly appreciated!

I am glad to read it here.

Contacts help

Hi all, I had to hard reset my XdaIIi, but I had previously set the permanent save on my contacts, but when it finished setting up I tried to retrieve the contacts but it didnt work
I've also had the phone syncronised with my PC and have the past three partnerships still on it, is there anyway I can retrieve my contacts?
thanks
Whenever I've done a hard reset of my stuff, I've just done an ActiveSync before resetting it or flashing the ROM... When I've got my phone back to working order again on a fresh installation, I've just ActiveSynced again, and bingo - all my contacts, files, calendar, AvantGo files have appeared with no problem.
To do that, I've just set up a new full relationship, and ActiveSync has taken care of the rest. The only thing I've had to backup myself has been my SMSes... Of course, if you didn't have your Contacts selected as one of the things to synchronise with your PC every time you synced, you're straight outta luck.
Hi rmurph17,
:lol: you are not straight outta luck :lol:
Do the following if u have already Synced your XDA with outlook before resetting:
1. Delete all your partnerships from your PC's ActiveSync without pluging the XDA
2. Once deleted all partnerships, put ur XDA on cradle which is already connected to PC
3. PC will ask for a new partnership, tell it what do u want to sync and from where & which account e.g. Outlook
It will start syncing once it made the partnership.
GoodLuck
Sidd
... So basically, what I said (see my original reply: " I've just ActiveSynced again, and bingo - all my contacts, files, calendar, AvantGo files have appeared with no problem") - I assumed you'd tried deleting your old ActiveSync partnerships from your PC via the ActiveSync software before attempting to resync again.
Have problem with contacts
I had use Nokia 9210i and use Outlook + plaxo (plaxo.com) to manager contacts.
I have around 10.000 contacts with full detail (numbers, email, website, extra information)
Now I change to XDA mini S and discovered that they can not do the same thing as N9210i.
Just about one forth of my contacts Syns from PC, the Programe Memory of XDA is full.
I am asking many person, searching site to site but no one have same problem.
Everyone, who have experien, please advice me:
1. Can I store the contacts file in SD card but not on the fone (Programe Memory)
2. if 1 not avaiable, Can I expand Program Memory more than 64M?
Thank you so much for help me.
Hi longpt,
I think in your situation u should better give a try to contact Microsoft.

Problem with Diamond and Jeyo Mobile Extender 2.5

Hi,
I am using Jeyo Mobile Extender http://www.jeyo.com/extender.asp to write SMS with my Diamond if I am working with my PC.
The Diamond is connected with Activ Sync via Bluetooth. Everything works good, the only Problem is if I get a new SMS it is not automatically synchronized with Outlook. I have to press the "Sent/Recive" Button everytime. Than all new SMS are synchronized with outlook without any problem.
If I am writing a SMS with outlook there i no problem the sms is automatically sent to the pda.
Is there any possibility to acitivate the automaticall synchronization if I get a new SMS?
Thanks for your help guys...
If you go to the Options menu for Jeyo ME, there should be something called 'Send/Receive SMS messages on connecting'. That should do it.

'Send/Receive SMS messages on connecting'
it is not working.
thank you for someone help first!!!!
If that didn't work then some people have reported to edit the file JeyoSMSReceive.ini found in C:\Program Files\Jeyo\JME_WM. Sometimes the dates in this files can be wrong:
These are the contents of mine one:
Inbox=2009-02-12 20:40:40.000
"Sent Items"=2009-02-12 14:16:53.000
Drafts=2008-02-13 19:09:32.687
As my software is working 'correctly' the dates are all current. Check your file and see what the dates are. I believe changes the dates manually to a more recent date can resolve such issue. Sorry but I can't remember the exact procedure.
Failing this, you could just trying to uninstalling the program and in doing so also remove the C:\Program Files\Jeyo folder, restart the PC and then reinstall.
Had the same problem while running the trial... So I went to Jeyo Mobile Companion Instead, same features and tons more, but not integrated to outlook...
IMO, better than JME

Saving text messages

Normally I use sprite backup to backup everything in one go from my Artemis, including SMS, and then restore the backup if I've done a hard reset. But since I will shortly be using the diamond instead of the artemis and cannot use sprite backups on the Diamond (as far as I've been told) is there a way to transfer my SMS from Artemis to Outlook, and then from Outlook to the Diamond?
I've got Outlook set up now and have saved contacts, calendar appointments, files, task and notes, but it doesn't appear to cater for SMS inbox, outbox, etc, only email. I read on this site about an app called Jeyo Mobile Extender, but apparently it can't transfer SMS back to the phone. So is there a way to do it or shall I just forget the old SMS's and start afresh with the Diamond? Mature responses if you please. Thanks.
Wait, I have a really old version, outlook 2003. I need 2007, right? I read that it caters for sms.
Try PPCPimBackup (freeware) or Jeyo Mobile Companion(shareware).

Thanks, I heard about Pim, will give it a try.
I charged the phone last night for the first time, then popped the T-Mobile CD in. I installed the newer version sprite backup software on the CD onto the phone, and then copied my latest sprite backup file created on my artemis with the older version sprite backup that came with the artemis, hoping it might recognise it and do the restore, yet it doesn't recognise it. Is this because my sprite backup file was created in WM5 and the diamond is WM6?
just sign up for microsoft my phone. sync the old phone then just choose to restore to phone when you sync the new phone. FREE

Thanks, looks like a great way to transfer texts, photos and video. But, this is on their site:
"Will Microsoft My Phone work on my mobile phone?
Currently, Microsoft My Phone works only on phones that run the Windows Mobile 6+ operating system."
My artemis is windows mobile 5. Only the diamond is WM6. So I guess it won't work.
I'm now trying Spb backup. Apparently it can transfer a full backup to a new phone even if the new phone has a different rom. I've just installed it on both phones and it's currently backing up my old stuff including what's on the storage card. I hope when I transfer the file to the diamond and try the restore it doesn't say incompatible or doesn't recognise. Fingers crossed. I looked at PIM backup but Spb seems to do more.
Well, it worked with Spb. I have all my text messages right back to 2007 on the new phone

Draft Texts in Touch Diamond

I have saved a number of draft sms messages that i would like to either save to an external program on a pc, or at least print them out.
I have install both active sync and can see the whole device, but have no idea where or what these files would be saved as.
ive also downloaded and used sprite explorer and backup, but this only seems to backup all the data on the device.
Has anyone ideas as to
A) What these files would be saved as
B) Whats the best way or program that would allow me to save this and view them on a pc.
Ive tried jeyo mobile extender but it doent seem to work with the diamond
any help is much appriciated

Please don't say I need to re-type everything!

I've been using the AT&T Tilt (HTC 8925) for several years, and have just upgraded to the HTC Fuze. My problem is getting the data from the Tilt to the Fuze.
The main reason that I upgraded is that I couldn't sync the Tilt anymore. For whatever reason, I can charge the Tilt, even using the USB charger, but the computer doesn't "see" the Tilt to sync. I've tried it with multiple computers, and the AT&T people have tried it several times, but no luck. I've also never been able to get it to sync reliably by Bluetooth.
So, anyway, I don't have a current sync on my PC, and I can't make one. I'm trying to figure out a way to get the PIM data to the new device. Can anyone tell me where the file(s) are stored on the Tilt? I thought maybe I could beam or even email the correct data files from the Tilt. Or does anyone have any other ideas?
Thanks for the help.
.. Joann
you tried PIM backup??
The tilt should come with Sprite Backup which can backup contacts, files, etc. Try using that to transfer your files. If you don't have one, borrow a storage card from a friend.
When making the backup, don't back-up your registry, and only backup the files you need. Otherwise, it's probably best to leave everything checked.
Google Sync or MyPhone should work too.
Both would give you a backup of your contact and calendar data in case of disaster. MyPhone will backup your sms, music and photos from your phone too.
Thanks so much!
I decided to use MyPhone, and it worked great!
If you try to copy the PIM from one device/ROM to another (i.e. your Fuze) you'll crash the Fuze, as it seems that every PIM is related to an only device/ROM (I mean, you changing the ROM but not the device, your old PIM will make your device crash)
I think you can export your data using Sashimi, maybe. Maybe using PIMbackup if the data are not related to the device/ROM but I'm not sure. Maybe, exporting them via Bluetooth from the Tilt to the Fuze directly.
Other options, I can't imagine them by now, but i'm not an expert and today I'm tired (it's 22:17 in Catalonia now)
